The Barclays Capital U.S. Securitized Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of mortgage-backed pass-through securities issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, investment-grade bonds and asset-backed securities. One cannot invest directly in an index.

Performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted.

The Fund commenced operations on July 28, 2008. Performance shown reflects the performance of Access Capital Strategies Community Investment Fund, Inc., the predecessor to the Fund. From its inception, June 23, 1998, until May 30, 2006, the predecessor fund elected status as a business development company. From May 31, 2006 until July 27, 2008, the predecessor fund operated as a continuously offered closed-end interval management company. If the predecessor fund had operated as an open-end management company, performance may have been adversely affected. Fund performance reflects applicable fee waivers/expense reimbursements which, if excluded, would cause performance to be lower.

1 Other Expenses are estimated annualized expenses taking into account the conversion to service providers currently used by the Tamarack Funds. Actual post-conversion expenses may vary from these estimates. The Advisor has agreed to waive or limit fees through January 31, 2011, to maintain Other Expenses, which does not include Interest Expense or Management Fees, at 0.20% of the Fund’s average monthly gross assets less accrued liabilities, other than indebtedness for borrowing. The Fund will carry forward, for a period not to exceed 12 months from the date on which a waiver or reimbursement is made by the Advisor, any expenses in excess of the expense limitation and repay the Advisor such amounts, provided the Fund is able to effect such repayment and remain in compliance with the expense limitation disclosed in the effective prospectus.
 
2 For the fiscal year ending September 30, 2009, the Fund employed leverage by borrowing in an amount equal to approximately 20% of the Fund’s total net assets (including the amount obtained from leverage). It is the Fund’s policy to borrow money only in amounts up to 25% of its total assets.
 
3 The Fund pays the Advisor an advisory fee at the annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund’s average monthly gross assets less accrued liabilities, other than indebtedness for borrowing. For the year ending September 30, 2009, the use of leverage increased this ratio to 0.63% of the Fund’s average monthly gross assets less accrued liabilities, including indebtedness for borrowing. If the Fund did not use leverage, the annual Management Fees ratio would have been 0.50%.
