* Reflects Ruane, Cunniff & Goldfarb’s (“Ruane
Cunniff”) contractual reimbursement of a portion
of the Fund’s operating expenses. This reimbursement
is a provision of Ruane Cunniff’s investment advisory
agreement with the Fund and the reimbursement will be
in effect only so long as that investment advisory agreement
is in effect.
The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of
investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other
mutual funds. It assumes that you invest $10,000 in the
Fund for the periods indicated and then redeem all your
shares at the end of those periods. It also assumes that
your investment has a 5% return each year and that the
Fund’s operating expenses stay the same. Although
your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these
assumptions your costs would be:
1 Year*
3 Years
5 Years
10 Years
$102
$325
$566
$1257
* The Board of Directors must approve Ruane Cunniff’s
investment advisory agreement each year. These examples
assume that Ruane Cunniff’s agreement to reimburse
operating expenses is not extended beyond the first year.
