The Fund can invest in small and medium sized companies,
which are often more volatile and less liquid than larger,
more established companies and therefore increase the
volatility of the Fund’s portfolio. The strategies used
by the Fund’s investment adviser in selecting Fund’s
portfolio may not always be successful. The investments
may decline in value or not increase in value when the
stock market in general is rising. Investments in foreign
securities entail risks not present in domestic investments
including, among others, risks related to political or
economic instability, currency exchange, and taxation.
Operation of Marketocracy.com’s website depends on the
continued availability of the Internet, both short- and
long-term. Significant failures of the Internet could
lead to interruptions or delays in the Fund’s investment
adviser’s ability to manage the Fund’s portfolio. Additionally,
the m100 group, upon which the Masters 100 Fund's portfolio
manager relies in managing the Fund, is comprised of
individuals who may be amateur investors, not investment
professionals, and are not employees of the Fund or its
advisor. Their track records are based on the performance
of a simulated stock portfolio on the website www.marketocracy.com.
