Fund Performance
Total Annualized Returns as of June 30, 2008
1-year 3-year 5-year Since Inception (2/24/2005) Gross Expense Ratio Capped Expense Ratio
Global Emerging Markets Fund -0.87% 25.27% n/a 20.30% 2.85% 2.50%

Gross expense ratio as stated in the most recent prospectus. The Adviser has contractually limited total fund operating expenses to not exceed 2.50% (exclusive of acquired fund fees and expenses of 0.06%) for the Global Emerging Markets Fund on an annualized basis through February 28, 2009, and until such later date as the Adviser determines. Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Results reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance does not include the effect of any direct fees described in the fund’s prospectus (e.g., short-term trading fees, if applicable, of 2.00%) which, if applicable, would lower your total returns. Obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end at www.usfunds.com or 1-800-US-FUNDS. High double-digit returns are attributable, in part, to unusually favorable market conditions and may not be repeated or consistently achieved in the future.

USCOX vs S&P 500

The chart illustrates the performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment made in the fund during the depicted time frame. Figures include reinvestment of capital gains and dividends, but the performance does not include the effect of any direct fees described in the fund’s prospectus (e.g., short-term trading fees) which, if applicable, would lower your total returns.

The S&P 500 Stock Index is a widely recognized capitalization-weighted index of 500 common stock prices in U.S. companies.

A program of regular investing doesn’t assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market. You should evaluate your ability to continue in such a program in view of the possibility that you may have to redeem fund shares in periods of declining share prices as well as in periods of rising prices.   Foreign and emerging market investing involves special risks such as currency fluctuation and less public disclosure, as well as economic and political risk.
