Outlook
The markets were generally kind in the second half of 2012, but uncertainty in Europe and a skittish recovery here in the U.S. cloud our future. While U.S. stocks and Treasury yields have both risen in January 2013, Congress has yet to address spending cuts and unemployment — while easing — is still relatively high. As we enter 2013, we will work diligently to manage your assets with the skill and nimbleness necessary in these challenging times.
We will continue to oversee the investment management of the Frontegra Funds with the care and diligence that have served our shareholders well in the past. As always, we appreciate your investment and continued confidence in the Frontegra Funds.
Best regards,

REPORT FROM ROBECOSAM USA, INC.
Dear Shareholders:
The Frontegra RobecoSAM Global Equity Fund strives to achieve capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity-related securities issued by U.S. and non-U.S. companies that combine their market and financial strategy with a high level of environmental awareness and a clearly defined social policy. The objective is measured against the MSCI World Index (Net).
Performance Review
The Frontegra RobecoSAM Global Equity Fund returned 8.45%, net of fees, for the six month period ending December 31, 2012. The Fund's return underperformed the 9.36% return of its benchmark, the MSCI World Index (Net). For the year, the Fund returned 10.73%, net of fees, compared to the benchmark's return of 15.83%. The portfolio's underperformance relative to the benchmark was primarily attributable to stock selection. Stock selection was particularly weak within Materials, Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology stocks, while we outperformed within Financials, Telecommunications and Industrials.
Over the period, the portfolio was positioned as overweight (relative to the MSCI World Index) in Health Care, Consumer Staples and Telecommunications and was underweight in Financials, Industrials and Materials. In terms of performance contribution, portfolio sector allocation had a negative impact on the relative performance. In particular, negative contribution came from underweighting Financials and overweighting Telecommunications.
The largest positive contributions at the stock level included overweight positions in Total (Energy), Barclays (Financials) and Telus (Telecommunications). Not holding positions in Apple and Intel has also had a positive contribution as these stocks underperformed the sector. The largest negative contributions at the stock level came from overweight position in Stanley Electric (Consumer Discretionary), Microsoft (Information Technology) and Hewlett-Packard (Information Technology).
Portfolio Outlook and Strategy
Global equity markets were surprisingly resurgent over the period. The equity rally was fuelled by easing Euro zone stress and aggressive monetary policy actions. In the U.S., the Fed delivered what the majority of market participants had been expecting: namely a third round of quantitative easing. The Fed announced plans to buy $40 billion of mortgage-backed securities each month until they see improvement in the labour market. It also extended the zero interest rate policy into 2015. In Europe, the ECB plan to buy Euro zone government bonds was well received by investors. The so called OMT plan (Outright Monetary Transactions) will have no ex ante limits on the size of purchases, subject to certain conditions. European governments that want the ECB to buy their bonds must agree to a program of reforms and oversight by the bailout funds.
As the result of stronger appetite for risk, the best performing sectors were Financials, Materials and Consumer Discretionary. Utilities and Telecommunications underperformed in relative terms. On a regional level, European and Asian equities were among the best performing, while U.S. markets underperformed as investors reduced risk exposure in anticipation of fiscal cliff concerns. Economic data continued to show growth tilted towards the downside. The Euro zone sovereign crisis has hurt business confidence, making companies cautious to invest in new capacities. These problems have been compounded by weakening demand in key export markets such as China and by worries over tax and spending negotiations in the U.S. As a result, the Euro zone economy has entered a recession for the second time since 2009. In Germany, Europe's largest economy, manufacturing activity contracted for the tenth consecutive month, while in Spain, business conditions worsened for the twentieth month in a row.
The outlook for the world economy remains mediocre. While global GDP estimations for 2013 vary between 2.5% to 4%, we expect the lower part of the range to be more realistic. In general, we do not see a big risk of a global recession. Mainly driven by a recovery in the housing market, the U.S. is growing at a moderately positive rate, and China's leading indicators are rebounding. On the other hand, we
page 4

also struggle to detect a trigger that could stimulate global growth in a more dynamic way. We expect to remain in an environment of on-going political interventions and low interest rates. This combination will likely result in modest earnings growth and gives equities, compared to other asset classes, a favourable valuation.
Our investment strategy remains focused on investing in sustainable companies with attractive valuation and stable earnings outlook. We also continue to underweight sectors where earnings visibility is lower, namely Financials. Our outlook for the Financial sector remains cautious as a result of the tightening regulation and the ongoing de-leveraging process. Our approach in this space remains very selective with focus on companies with solid cash generation, strong balance sheets and acceptable leverage.
Sincerely,
Senior Portfolio Manager
RobecoSAM USA, Inc.

REPORT FROM MFG ASSET MANAGEMENT
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
The investment objective of the Frontegra MFG Global Equity Fund is capital appreciation. The objective is measured against the MSCI World Index (Net).
Performance Review
The Frontegra MFG Global Equity Fund returned 10.18%, net of fees, for the six month period ending December 31, 2012. The Fund's return outperformed the 9.36% return of its benchmark, the MSCI World Index (Net). For the year, the Fund returned 19.46%, net of fees, compared to the benchmark's return of 15.83%.
We do not manage the Fund against short-term performance metrics and it is inevitable the Fund will underperform markets at some point in the future. We aim (not guarantee) to produce absolute returns through the business cycle whilst minimizing the risk of a permanent capital loss. We will continue to focus on these objectives and will not chase short-term performance.
Portfolio Outlook and Strategy
We have seen more stable investment markets over the past six months. In our view the major contributing factor to the more stable market environment was the commitment by the ECB President, Mario Draghi, to preserve the euro. This commitment was followed up on 6 September with an announcement by the ECB of the Outright Monetary Transactions Programme or the "OMT". Under the OMT, the ECB will buy an unlimited amount of sovereign bonds (with a maturity of less than three years) of any EU country with a distressed sovereign debt market. A country must apply for help from the European Stability Mechanism and agree to any fiscal conditions applied. In our view, these commitments by the ECB have further reduced the possibility of a major financial meltdown scenario in Europe.
As at 31 December 2012, the portfolio consisted of 24 investments (in comparison with 24 investments at 30 June 2012). The top ten investments represented approximately 52% of the portfolio at 31 December 2012.
Over the six months to 31 December 2012, the three stocks with the strongest returns in local currency were Lowe's (+26.3%), Visa (+23.1%) and Google (+22.9%), and the stocks with the weakest returns were Coca-Cola (-6.0%), Wal-Mart (-1.1%) and American Express (-0.6%).
There have been a few major changes to the portfolio during the past six months. The material changes have been a new investment in General Mills, the addition of global custody banks, Bank of New York Mellon and State Street (refer U.S. interest rate discussion below), an increase in the weighting of investments in Yum! Brands and Tesco, and a decrease in the weighting of eBay, Unilever, and Lowe's.
The portfolio continues to be exposed to the following major investment themes:
• Emerging market consumption growth via investments in multinational consumer franchises. Approximately 27% of the portfolio is invested into multinational consumer franchises which have on average approximately 40% of their sales revenue generated from emerging markets. The five largest investments in multinational consumer franchises at 31 December 2012 were Danone, Yum! Brands, McDonalds, Nestle and Mondelez International (the multinational packaged foods company which spun off from Kraft in October 2012).
• U.S. interest rates. It is our view that it is likely that U.S. short and long-term interest rates will "normalise" over the next three to five years as the U.S. economy recovers. This will be as a result of the U.S. Federal Reserve lifting the Federal Deposit Rate and the Federal Reserve firstly ceasing its quantitative easing programme and then taking steps to shrink (or sterilize) its balance sheet which is likely to have a material impact on longer-term bond yields. We own four U.S. financial institutions which are likely to benefit from the change in U.S. interest rates, Wells Fargo, U.S. Bancorp, Bank of New York Mellon and State Street. These investments represented approximately 14% of the portfolio at 31 December 2012.

![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca011.jpg)
• A move to a cashless society. There continues to be a strong secular shift from spending via cash and cheque to cashless forms of payments such a credit cards, debit cards, electronic funds transfer and mobile payments. In our opinion, the explosion of smart mobile phones will accelerate this shift on a global basis. We believe that there are only a limited number of companies that are well positioned to benefit from this structural shift. The companies are typically highly attractive with strong network effects, low capital intensity, high barriers to entry and high returns on capital. As at 31 December 2012, approximately 16% of the portfolio was invested in the payments space through exposure to companies such as PayPal (via eBay), American Express, Visa and MasterCard.
• U.S. housing. A recovery in new housing construction should drive a strong cyclical recovery in companies exposed to the U.S. housing market and also provide a strong boost to the overall economy. Our major exposure to the U.S. housing market is via our exposure to the home improvement retailer, Lowe's, and the domestic U.S. banks, Wells Fargo and U.S. Bancorp. These investments represented approximately 13% of the portfolio at 31 December 2012.
• Internet/e-commerce. There are a number of internet enabled businesses that have very attractive investment characteristics with increasing competitive advantages. The Fund's internet investments at 31 December 2012 were eBay and Google, which represented approximately 11% of the portfolio.
Europe
As noted previously, since June the ECB has taken substantive action with Mario Draghi's "Whatever it takes" statement in July and the announcement of the OMT in September, which has further reduced the probability of a European sovereign and financial system meltdown.
There has also been some progress on the EU Banking Union, which was first announced in June. In December the EU Finance Ministers announced that the ECB will take responsibility for banks that have at least €30 billion in assets or make up more than 20% of their country's GDP or operate in at least two countries. In our view, an effective framework for regulation of EU banks is critical to break the negative feedback loop between individual countries and their banking systems. To be effective, the Banking Union will need to have consistent capital and liquidity rules, a wind up mechanism (likely to involve the mandatory "bail in" of creditors) and an EU deposit insurance scheme. This is a complex task and requires the foregoing of a certain degree of sovereignty.
In our view, many of the world's banks are still in denial about how determined global regulators are to dramatically strengthen capital and liquidity rules. Their aim is to make it prohibitively expensive for deposit-taking banks to undertake certain activities. This is designed to reduce the need for tax payers to become the guarantors of last resort to failing large deposit-taking financial institutions. There is a push by certain regulators to introduce a meaningful minimum leverage ratio (i.e. total tangible equity to total tangible assets). A number as high as 10% has been suggested by certain regulators. This would have dramatic consequences for many large banks.
Moving into 2013, we are closely watching the unfolding political processes in both Germany and Italy. In our view, Angela Merkel and Mario Monti have been absolutely critical in steering Europe through this complex and difficult period.
We continue to believe that many European countries face a prolonged period (possibly five to seven years) of sub-par economic growth (and in many instances recessions) due to the combined effects of fiscal austerity by governments, deleveraging of bank balance sheets and household deleveraging.
United States
Nothing has fundamentally changed in our views on the U.S. economy over the past six months. The meaningful events that have happened over the period include:
• The announcement by the Federal Reserve in September of QE3, which involves the purchase by the Federal Reserve of US$40 billion per month of mortgage-backed securities. The purpose of QE3 is to reduce the longer-term mortgage rate to enable households to refinance mortgages at lower rates;
page 9
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca012.jpg)
• The announcement by the Federal Reserve in December of the intention to buy $US45 billion per month of longer-dated treasuries and an intention to keep the Federal Funds rate at an exceptionally low level until the U.S. unemployment rate is below 6.5%, provided forward inflation expectations are no more than 2.5%. This is the first time in recent times that the Federal Reserve has explicitly tied short-term interest rates to a specific level of unemployment;
• The re-election of Barack Obama as President, and;
• The last-minute agreement to avert the fiscal cliff by increasing tax rates for wealthier Americans and extending the Bush-era tax rates for the middle class. The agreement also involved the expiry of the temporary payroll tax cuts and pushed out the date for automatic expenditure cuts. Unfortunately, this agreement has not ended the political uncertainty.
I have stated on a number of occasions that the extraordinary policy responses in recent years, particularly by the Federal Reserve and ECB, have fuelled a number of current bubbles and distortions in certain asset markets, most notably foreign exchange and bond markets. It is inevitable that these distortions will unwind at some point, and there is a reasonable chance that bond prices and foreign exchange markets could adjust very rapidly. The longer these policy responses are held in place, the more complacent investors are likely to become, believing that this environment is the "new normal." These policy settings will not last indefinitely, and we consider the portfolio is well positioned for the eventual correction.
There continue to be signs that the U.S. is undergoing a modest economic recovery. We believe that there is unlikely to be a meaningful reduction in the unemployment rate in the short term until housing construction reverts to more normalised levels, which we consider will take another two to three years. When this happens, we believe the U.S. economy will recover significantly.
China
We continue to believe that China is engineering a relatively soft landing with slowing economic growth, albeit at healthy levels. The major event in the past six months has been the appointment of the new leadership team in China headed by Xi Jinping (President) and Li Keqiang (Premier). It would appear that the new leadership team will continue to focus on economic reform and a gradual opening up of the economy.
We believe it is unlikely that the government will again embark on a massive stimulus programme to increase the level of fixed asset investment to drive up the rate of economic growth. China appears content with the lower but healthy rate of economic growth.
Sincerely,
Hamish Douglass

MFG CORE INFRASTRUCTURE FUND
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca016.jpg)
REPORT FROM MFG ASSET MANAGEMENT
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
The investment objective of the Frontegra MFG Core Infrastructure Fund is long-term capital appreciation. The objective is measured against the UBS Developed Infrastructure & Utilities Index (Net).
Generally, infrastructure assets are natural monopolies that provide an essential service to the community. Infrastructure assets offer investors protection from the impacts of inflation because their earnings generally have some direct linkage to inflation. Over time the stable, reliable earnings of infrastructure assets are expected to lead to a combination of income and capital growth for investors.
The return from the infrastructure universe as defined by MFG Asset Management ("MFGAM") was more than 10% p.a. for the decade to the end of 2012. Just under half of that return was in the form of dividend income.
The universe of infrastructure assets that are held by the Fund is made up of two main sectors:
• Utilities, including both regulated energy utilities and regulated water utilities. Utilities comprise approximately 74% of the Fund. Utilities are typically subject to economic regulation. This requires the utility to efficiently provide an essential service to the community and, in return, permits the utility to earn a fair rate of return on the capital it has invested in its operations. As the utility provides a basic necessity, e.g. energy or water, there is minimal fluctuation in demanded volumes in response to the economic cycle and the price charged for the utility service can be adjusted with limited impact upon demanded volumes. As a result, the earnings of regulated utilities have been, and are expected to continue to be, stable irrespective of economic conditions; and
• Infrastructure, which includes airports, ports, toll roads and broadcast communications infrastructure. Regulation of infrastructure companies is generally less intensive than for utilities and allows companies to accrue the benefits of volume growth i.e. the returns of infrastructure companies are linked to growth in passengers, vehicles or containers. As economies develop, grow and become more inter-dependent, we expect the underlying level of aviation, shipping and vehicle traffic to increase. As a result, the revenues and earnings derived by infrastructure assets are expected to grow.
Performance Review
The Frontegra MFG Core Infrastructure Fund returned 8.52%, net of fees, for the six month period ending December 31, 2012. The Fund's return outperformed the 3.04% return of its benchmark, the UBS Developed Infrastructure & Utilities Index (Net). Since the Fund's inception on January 18, 2012, the Fund has returned 15.58% net of fees, whilst the benchmark has returned 6.96%.
Most sectors held in the Core Infrastructure strategy performed well during the last six months of 2012, with Airports up a weighted average 22%, Toll Roads up 20%, and Broadcast Communications up 14%. The Water Utilities sector was the worst performing in the Fund, remaining flat on average over the six months.
A number of sectors excluded from the Core Infrastructure strategy but included in the benchmark performed relatively poorly during the second half of 2012 helping to explain the relative out-performance of the portfolio. Most notably, the Competitive Power sector, which has a large weighting in the benchmark index, was up an average of 1%.
Geographically, Latin America (including Mexico) was the strongest performer, up a weighted average of 33% over the last six months of 2012. The period also saw Australian/New Zealand stocks up a weighted average of 15% and European stocks up 14%, while U.S. stocks performed relatively poorly, returning -1% for the six months on a weighted average basis.

Portfolio Outlook and Strategy
The Core Infrastructure strategy is designed to provide reliable returns in all but the most extreme market conditions. The Fund significantly exceeded that expectation during 2012, partly reflecting the recovery of stocks held by the Fund that had been over-sold in previous years. We now see the utilities market as broadly in equilibrium while infrastructure stocks remain cheap.
MFGAM believes that infrastructure and utility assets, with requisite earnings reliability and a linkage of earnings to inflation offer an attractive, long-term investment proposition. Furthermore, given the predictable nature of earnings and the structural linkage of those earnings to inflation, the investment returns generated by infrastructure assets are different from standard asset classes and offer investors valuable diversification when included in an investment portfolio. In the current uncertain economic and investment climate, the reliable financial performance of infrastructure investments makes them particularly attractive and an investment in listed infrastructure can be expected to reward patient investors with a three to five year timeframe.

HEXAM EMERGING MARKETS FUND
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca021.jpg)
REPORT FROM HEXAM CAPITAL PARTNERS, LLP
Dear Shareholders:
The Frontegra HEXAM Emerging Markets Fund aims to achieve long-term capital growth by investing at least 80% of its net assets in securities of emerging market companies. The Fund's benchmark is the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net).
Performance Review
During the six months ended December 31, 2012, the Frontegra HEXAM Emerging Markets Fund returned 14.99%, net of fees, compared to 13.75% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net). For the year, the Fund returned 9.03%, net of fees, compared to 18.22% for the Index.
Portfolio Review and Strategy
Emerging markets were up 13.8% in USD terms for the reporting period, led by Turkey (+28.1%), Poland (+25.4%) and China (+18.4%). The Fund's significant overweight position in China was a strong positive contributor to the Fund's performance. Our stance that China's economy is not going to "hard land" was vindicated. The Chinese macro data has been consistently strong, indicating that the economic stimulus measures taken by the Chinese government were effective. The data points indicate a more sustained economic recovery led by fixed asset investment by businesses and increases in domestic consumption rather than excess liquidity (as witnessed in the aftermath of the 2008 crisis). The transition of power in China largely feared by investors occurred without any surprises. The new leadership pledged support for the domestic and global economy. Korea (+15.1%) also performed well as one of the biggest beneficiaries of the strength of the Chinese economy. Strong contributors to the Fund's overall performance came from the Fund's underweight positions in Chile, Malaysia, Indonesia, Taiwan and Mexico.
Brazil (+8.4%) underperformed for the period as government intervention into businesses and industries kept investors at bay. The latest blow to the utilities sector in Brazil occurred when President Rousseff capped electricity tariffs. This action led to some index heavyweights in the sector losing more than 50% of their market capitalization in a matter of days. Russia (+12.0%) also underperformed the index as flows into the market remained anemic. Despite distressed valuations (Russia is currently trading at cheaper multiples than during the Yukos crisis) and improving fundamentals, the market remains at the mercy of foreign investors, with domestic pension fund participation still in a nascent stage. Both Brazil and Russia detracted from performance as did our underweight positions in Turkey and Poland.
At a stock selection level, the biggest contributor to the Fund's positive performance came from the Fund's Chinese holdings, Nine Dragons Paper Holdings and Kingboard Chemical Holdings. Nine Dragons is the largest containerboard producer in China with an estimated 23% market share. The company is well positioned to take advantage of the industry rebound and has a falling gearing ratio and abating financing costs. Given Nine Dragons largely completed its massive capacity expansion in 2012, we expect the company to see robust volume growth in the coming years when utilization of new capacity ramps up. The stock is trading at just 0.97x P/B. Kingboard Chemical, the largest printed circuit boards manufacturer in China and the third largest global manufacturer of paper laminates, was the second biggest contributor to return. The company is trading at just 0.6x P/B and its margins are highly geared to Chinese macro environment, which is on an improving trend.
The biggest detractor from the Fund's performance also came from a Chinese stock, Baidu, a leading internet search provider with a focus on Chinese web pages. It is the number one site in China in terms of traffic volume and reach. Baidu's share price corrected significantly after it announced Q4 revenue guidance that missed consensus by 1%-4%. Despite the short-term softness, we believe secular growth of the Chinese search market is intact. Importantly, advertisers believe the market's fixation with a few percentage point gain/loss in traffic share is irrelevant to the on-the-ground perception that Baidu is the "go to" platform for search advertising. Baidu now trades at 17.0x 2013E PE and 0.65x 2013E PEG. We believe the stock is inexpensive based on potential growth.

![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca022.jpg)
Despite the positive return for the index, the reporting period was characterized by ongoing volatility on the back of the U.S. elections, U.S. "fiscal cliff" concerns and European debt worries. Unsurprisingly, sector-wise, defensive sectors such as Consumer Staples, Health Care and Consumer Discretionary continued to perform well, rising 15.2%, 16.6% and 14.8%, respectively. The best performing sectors, however, were Information Technology (+16.6%) and Financials (+18.0%). The Fund benefitted from its overweight position in Financials, and our Chinese and Korean technology stocks fared well too.
We continued to stay overweight China, Korea, Russia and Brazil throughout the period. We believe the re-rating of China and the China proxies has barely started, and we will see much stronger relative gains going forward. We continued to look for new stock ideas, and the Fund saw several new additions to the portfolio during the second half of 2012.
Outlook
None of the fears (e.g. the break-up of the euro and an exit of Greece, China's hard landing, U.S. fiscal cliff concerns) that resulted in the unprecedented de-rating of cyclicals and high-beta investments materialized over the past three years. The ongoing sentiment-driven rotation into bonds and defensives is unsustainable, and we believe we saw first signs of the unwinding of that trade over the past several months. Although it is possible we may see some volatility going forward, we remain strongly convinced that valuation and fundamentals arguments will prevail over unjustifiable risk aversion. We expect equities, and active emerging markets equities in particular, to see significant inflows over the next year. The Fund is well positioned to take advantage of all these changes.
Thank you for your continued support.

TIMPANI SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca026.jpg)
REPORT FROM TIMPANI CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LLC
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
The Frontegra Timpani Small Cap Growth Fund strives to achieve capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of growth companies with small market capitalizations. Timpani seeks to:
• Invest in companies where growth is robust, sustainable and underestimated by the market.
• Anticipate positive revisions by analysts and investors by conducting fundamental research that provides unique insights into the perception gap that exists between market expectations and a company's true growth rate.
• Manage risk by continuously evaluating the size of the perception gap relative to market expectations and monitoring market sentiment.
• Act on new relevant incremental data points, both positive and negative, in an effort to exploit investor biases.
Performance Review
The Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Growth Index, for the period July 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, returning 4.17% (net of fees) vs. 5.31% for the Index. For the year, the Fund returned 17.91%, net of fees, compared to the benchmark's return of 14.59%.
Sector allocation and stock selection were both slight contributors to the underperformance. Stock selection was positive in the majority of sectors but that was more than offset by subpar performance within Technology. Good stock selection within Health Care and Financial Services were positive contributors to performance. An overweight position in Technology was a negative contributor to performance, while an underweight in Consumer Staples was a positive contributor. All other sector tilts had a negligible impact on performance.
As we expected, the individual stocks that outperformed during the period tended to be those with the largest perception gaps. The period saw modest gains for the index in Q3 followed by a flattish Q4. The markets seemed to be in a transition period as focus shifted from the macro issues in Europe to fiscal issues domestically. Economically sensitive sectors like Financials and Consumer Discretionary outperformed as the appetite for big ticket consumer purchases like autos and housing increased. Companies with strong business models and secular growth drivers such as Capital Senior Living, Lithia Motors and Tree.com contributed most to the outperformance. Stocks levered to a housing recovery such as Ryland Group, Ellie Mae and Eagle Materials were also strong performers. Kenexa was a strong contributor as it was acquired during the period, while Technology stocks Tangoe, Allot Communications and Radware hurt performance.
Portfolio Outlook
The benchmark was up slightly during Q4 as the gains from Q3 were digested by the market. In November and December, we felt we were negatively impacted by the pending increase in tax rates as strong performing stocks were sold to harvest gains and avoid taxes. Poor performing stocks were held onto for the same reasons. Despite the focus on fiscal issues in Q4, we saw many encouraging signs that the market will start to embrace and reward company specific fundamentals. Correlations among stocks have dropped, bond yields in Europe have fallen and volatility has retreated to multi-year lows. Stronger economic data in the U.S. housing market has led to a generally optimistic outlook. This may lead to a sustained increased pace of recovery within the economy. Stubbornly high unemployment, geopolitical risks, slowing growth in China and Europe's recession are issues that investors are fully aware of and have largely discounted in the market. During the last few months, the close relative performance of the portfolio versus the index was a function of the market digesting some of these concerns weighted against positive company fundamentals. We are optimistic that the tide is turning and that we should see investors start to embrace company specific secular growers as macro concerns fade and the credit crisis becomes a more distant memory.

On a micro level, companies within our portfolio maintained a constructive outlook on the economy and mostly exceeded analyst expectations. Corporate balance sheets are generally sound, and companies are generating ample cash flow which enables them to increase cash deployment in the form of dividends, share buybacks or accretive acquisitions. We believe that positive corporate fundamentals will lead to the potential for increased M&A activity which could benefit the companies we own as both buyers and potential acquisition targets. This thesis came to fruition as Kenexa and Schiff Nutrition were acquired at a significant premium. Other companies such as Stratasys, Air Methods, Acadia Healthcare, and Capital Senior Living all made strategic acquisitions that were accretive and were well received by the market. Our analysis continues to confirm our optimism regarding the fundamental strength of the companies in our portfolio. In particular, meetings with company management teams and other fundamental data points indicate that many companies continue to achieve robust growth and that significant perception gaps still exist. More attention will continue to be given to company specific fundamentals as systemic risks have lessened considerably.
We believe we are positioned in companies with secular growth tailwinds and positive company specific fundamentals that should be rewarded going forward. We are optimistic that once we clear the final fiscal hurdle of the debt ceiling debate, valuation multiples will expand. We are well positioned to outperform once the fiscal questions are answered. According to a recent industry report, the number one factor explaining outperformance once stock correlations start to drop is positive earnings revisions, which is what our disciplined approach is centered on.
During the period, we continued to focus on finding robust and sustainable growers with company-specific perception gaps. The results from our bottom-up stock picking process resulted in modest changes in portfolio sector allocation. We continue to be overweight in Consumer Discretionary, and underweight Consumer Staples, Energy and Utilities. The biggest changes included the Technology sector going from a significant overweight to a slight underweight and Materials going from a modest underweight to a modest overweight during the period. An overweight position in Financial Services grew during the period while Health Care went from a slight overweight to slight underweight. We took advantage of the declining volatility during the fourth quarter by adding and initiating positions in companies where we believe there is secular growth that the market has underestimated. This is classic perception gap investing. Looking ahead, we are confident that our bottom-up process will continue to add value for shareholders.
Thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Brandon Nelson, CFA | |

NETOLS SMALL CAP VALUE FUND

REPORT FROM NETOLS ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC.
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
The Frontegra Netols Small Cap Value Fund strives to achieve capital appreciation by investing at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of small capitalization companies. The objective is relative to, and measured against, the Russell 2000® Value Index.
Performance Review
During the six month period ended December 31, 2012, the Frontegra Netols Small Cap Value Fund (Institutional Class) returned 8.18%, net of fees, compared to 9.07% for the Russell 2000 Value Index. For the year, the Fund returned 13.57%, net of fees, compared to 18.05% for the Index.
Portfolio Review
During the second half of 2012, investors began to look past the issues that previously increased market volatility and focused more on the underlying economy. The continued slowdown in Europe, drought conditions in the U.S., the presidential election, fiscal cliff, and debt ceiling did not create the same level of market anxiety as seen over the past few years. The Federal Reserve attempted to ease the markets with another round of quantitative easing ahead of the election and debt issues. Additionally, investors appeared to accept the fact that these issues are now part of the economic landscape and turned their attention to the domestic economy that continues to heal despite issues coming out of Washington D.C. These factors pushed investors into riskier assets. As a result, Materials, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrial sectors outperformed in the second half of 2012, while Health Care lagged during the period.
Positive Contributions to Relative Performance in the Second Half of 2012:
• Stock selection in Industrial and Health Care sectors
• Overweight in Health Care sector
• Best performing stocks for the period: Sunrise Senior Living, Walter Investment Management, Genesee & Wyoming, Robbins & Myers, and TriMas
Negative Contributions to Relative Performance in the Second Half of 2012:
• Stock selection in Energy and Materials sectors
• Underweight in Financials sector
• Worst performing stocks for the period: Accuride, Coinstar, Ciber, Willbros, and TreeHouse Foods
Portfolio Outlook
Overall, we believe the economy should remain on a path of modest growth. Despite many issues including higher taxes and unresolved federal budget issues, the underpinnings of the economy appear to be strengthening. Resolution of these issues could lead to increased hiring and consumer confidence. Domestically, low gas prices, lower mortgage rates, and expanding credit could provide an added uplift to the economy. Internationally, reacceleration of China's economy could once again help the economy and markets. Furthermore, it appears that resolution of any issues in Washington would only enhance the potential for improved economic growth.
Thank you for your continued support.

PHOCAS SMALL CAP VALUE FUND
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca035.jpg)
REPORT FROM PHOCAS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
The Frontegra Phocas Small Cap Value Fund strives to achieve capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity securities of companies with small market capitalizations. The objective is relative to, and measured against, the Russell 2000® Value Index.
Performance Review
During the six month period ended December 31, 2012, the Frontegra Phocas Small Cap Value Fund returned 6.03%, net of fees, compared to the 9.07% return of the benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index. For the year, the Fund returned 9.75%, net of fees, compared to 18.05% for the Index.
Portfolio Review and Strategy
2012 was a year fraught with challenges for investors, and nothing seemed certain. Political turmoil unfolded in Europe as certain countries such as Greece, Spain and Italy attempted to remain solvent through sizable austerity measures. Here in the United States, it was a year of political bruising between the two major political parties fighting to set America's direction, but also not being able to come to terms with tax policy until the 11th hour, literally, of New Year's Eve. Potentially frightening outcomes left investors diving for safety, then charging ahead at opportunities, then scratching their heads trying to decide which way to turn. While stocks did well in 2012, many in the more economically sensitive areas like Industrials, Technology, and Energy, are actually quite reasonably priced which means we may see some good returns here, while the safer areas in Utilities, Telecommunications, and Consumer Staples may lag.
For the third quarter of 2012, the strongest relative performers in the Fund were Health Care, Information Technology, and Energy. On the positive side, our portfolio finally realized a takeout of one of our major positions, Par Pharmaceutical, which helped to boost the performance of our Health Care sector. Though we outperformed within Information Technology, the sector still underperformed the average index return. Unfortunately, some of the other major sectors were significant relative underperformers. The worst sectors were Materials, Consumer Staples, Industrials, and Financials. Consumer Discretionary was relatively flat versus the benchmark. Though Materials represents only 5% of the benchmark, many of the stocks within the index are mining/metals related companies as well as paper companies, neither of which the Fund owned at this time. Within Industrials, our largest positions had too much international revenue exposure, which greatly penalized them relative to pure domestic companies.
As usual, earnings disappointments, no matter how small or significant, were met with share price compression inconsistent with the actual underlying financial performance — that may be because of factors including money flows affecting sector ETFs. High beta stocks and less liquid names continue to be excessively punished if on the wrong side of earnings estimates.
For the fourth quarter, there was weaker performance from the Energy, Materials and Health Care sectors. Consumer Staples, though a small weight, continued to be a drag on the Fund, due to weakness in two of our three holdings. Within Consumer Discretionary, there was negative performance, but all of that continued to be driven by lack of exposure to the homebuilding industry which ran up significantly during the quarter, as well as the year. No exposure to homebuilding stocks cost the Fund during the quarter. There was also negative performance in Financials, most of it coming from underperformance within the insurance subsector. Cash was also a drag on performance. On the brighter side, Industrials added to performance, followed closely behind by Technology which was helped by two acquisitions during the quarter. Utilities were also modestly on the positive side of the ledger.
To position for the coming year, we increased the strategy's exposure to more inexpensive names within most sectors that might benefit from an improving economy. We maintained most of our names within Energy as they remain deep value. We added additional low valuation decile names within Materials: Boise and Kaiser Aluminum. We added underperforming names within Technology and Industrials: United Online, Euronet Worldwide, ValueClick, and Coinstar. In the Financial sector, we added some of the weaker bank

stocks such as United Community Bank and Park Sterling Bank. In exchange, we sold out of positions that were in the higher decile ranks in order to take advantage of the valuation arbitrage.
Thank you for your continued support.

LOCKWELL SMALL CAP VALUE FUND
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001104659-13-017127/j1320632_ca040.jpg)
REPORT FROM LOCKWELL INVESTMENTS, LLC
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
The Lockwell Small Cap Value Fund strives to take advantage of a number of investor biases which are particularly prevalent within the small cap equity universe. These biases result in an opportunity set of high-quality companies whose valuations, in our opinion, do not accurately reflect the attractiveness of their franchises or business prospects. The strategy attempts to exploit these biases by using an intensive, bottom-up, research-focused process; seeking high-quality companies with specific catalysts; and becoming involved with company managements when appropriate.
Performance Review
The Lockwell Small Cap Value Fund returned 11.71%, net of fees, for the six months ending December 31, 2012, versus the benchmark Russell 2000® Value Index return of 9.07%.
During this period, outperformance was largely the result of strong stock selection. Specifically, stock selection within Financials contributed 4.97% to outperformance. While selection was strong across the sector with eleven stocks in the sector returning greater than 20% during the six month period, two stocks performed extremely well. Ocwen Financial, a servicer of sub-prime mortgages, returned 84.19% during the period, while Greenhill & Co, a boutique investment bank, returned 47.87%. Additionally, strong security selection in Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary and an overweight position to the Industrial and Materials sectors also aided performance. On the downside, security selection in Energy detracted from performance as our theses on several securities have yet to play out.
Our overall sector positioning didn't significantly change during the second half of 2012. We continue to be overweight Industrials and Materials and underweight Financials. Additionally, we continue to maintain a frictional cash position of 3-5% in the portfolio. Given the positive performance of the Fund during the second half of the year, the cash position slightly detracted from portfolio performance.
Portfolio Outlook
The second half of 2012 had many similarities to the second half of 2011, with most markets continuing to be highly correlated and focused on macroeconomic issues although to a lesser extent than in 2011. Similar to 2011, investors were still concerned about the strength of the Euro bloc, the uncertainty of how the U.S. would handle fiscal issues and slowing economic growth across regions. However, markets in general reacted better in 2012 with greater clarity on central bank policy, the outcome of the U.S. elections and improving, albeit mildly, economic data in many parts of the world. Also similar to 2011, small cap companies continued to produce strong profits and cash flow. Many companies continued to buy back stock and/or paid dividends with their excess cash. We believe small cap valuations are relatively close to fair value at this point and companies continue to be cautious with regard to their earnings forecasts for 2013. Our expectation for the first half of 2013 is that companies will deliver reasonable earnings, but without meaningful top line growth, they will likely not see much margin improvement as most cost cutting opportunities have already been realized. While merger and acquisition activity started to accelerate in the second half of 2012, we won't be surprised to see this to continue to grow during 2013 given the strength of balance sheets and still reasonable valuations. Since these events are nearly impossible to predict, we will continue to spend our efforts searching for undervalued securities that have identifiable catalysts. Over the longer-term, we believe the fundamentals of these companies will produce superior stock price performance that will benefit our shareholders.
Thank you for your continued support.

* 7/01/11 commencement of operations.
This chart assumes an initial gross investment of $100,000 made on 7/01/11. Returns shown include the reinvestment of all distributions. Past performance is not predictive of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. In the absence of fee waivers, total return would be reduced. To receive current to the most recent month-end performance, please call 1-888-825-2100.
The Russell 2000® Value Index measures the performance of those Russell 2000® companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.
** The returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE
December 31, 2012 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a mutual fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. Although the Funds charge no sales loads, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Funds' transfer agent. If you request that a redemption be made by wire transfer, currently the Funds' transfer agent charges a $15.00 fee. A redemption fee of 2.00% of the then current value of the shares redeemed may be imposed on certain redemptions of shares made within 30 days of purchase for the Frontegra RobecoSAM Global Equity, Frontegra MFG Global Equity, Frontegra MFG Core Infrastructure, Frontegra HEXAM Emerging Markets and Lockwell Small Cap Value Funds.
This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (7/1/12 – 12/31/12).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table on the following page for each Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. The Example includes management fees, registration fees, fee waivers/reimbursements and other expenses. However, the Example does not include portfolio trading commissions and related expenses and other extraordinary expenses as determined under generally accepted accounting principles. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table for each Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each of the Fund's actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in each of the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs could have been higher.

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.
(a) Investment Valuation
Equity securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last reported sale price on the national securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded. Equity securities for which there were no transactions on a given day or securities not listed on a national securities exchange are valued at the most recent bid price. Equity securities that are traded on NASDAQ are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP"). Debt securities (other than short-term instruments) are valued by an independent pricing service, which uses valuation methods such as matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and evaluated dealer bid quotations. Shares of underlying mutual funds are valued at their respective NAVs. Exchange traded funds are valued at the last reported sale price on the exchange on which the security is principally traded. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign exchanges, including participatory notes, generally are valued at the last sale price of such securities on their respective exchange. In certain circumstances, such as when a significant event occurs in a foreign market so that the last sale price no longer reflects actual value, the fair value of these securities may be determined using fair valuation procedures approved by the Board of Directors. The Directors have retained an independent fair value pricing service to assist in valuing foreign securities held by the Frontegra RobecoSAM Global Equity, Frontegra MFG Global Equity, Frontegra MFG Core Infrastructure and Frontegra HEXAM Emerging Markets Funds. In valuing assets, prices denominated in foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents at the current exchange rate, which approximates fair value. Securities maturing within 60 days or less when purchased are valued by the amortized cost method. Any securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the advisers or subadvisers pursuant to guidelines established by the Board of Directors.
The Funds follow a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and the Funds' own market assumptions (unobservable inputs). These inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund's investments and are summarized in the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 — Evaluated prices based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, foreign security indices, foreign exchange rates, fair value estimates for foreign securities and changes in benchmark securities indices)
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining fair value of investments)

Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 relate to the use of systematic fair valuation. On days when systematic fair valuation is used, non-U.S. dollar denominated securities move from Level 1 to Level 2 classification. At June 30, 2012, securities in the MFG Core Infrastructure Fund and HEXAM Emerging Markets Fund were adjusted using systematic fair valuation. At December 31, 2012, certain securities in the MFG Core Infrastructure Fund and HEXAM Emerging Markets Fund were not adjusted using systematic fair valuation. The Funds did not hold any Level 3 securities during the period ended December 31, 2012.
(b) Federal Income Taxes
Each Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to its shareholders sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been provided.
The Funds have adopted financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognized interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2012, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds have reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there is no effect to any of the Fund's financial positions or results of operations and no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Open tax years are those years that are open for examination by the relevant income taxing authority. As of December 31, 2012, open federal and state income tax years include the tax years ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012. The Funds have no examinations in progress. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will significantly change in twelve months.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
As of the end of their tax year ended June 30, 2012, the following Funds have capital loss carryforwards ("CLCFs") as summarized in the table below. Under the provision of the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, CLCFs that originated in a tax year that began before December 23, 2010 (pre-effective CLCFs) may be carried forward, subject to certain limitations, and applied to offset future capital gains, and thus reduce the amount of distributable capital gains, for up to eight succeeding tax years, after which any unutilized CLCFs expire. Pre-effective CLCFs are applied as short-term capital loss regardless of whether the originating capital loss was short term or long term. CLCFs that originate in tax years beginning after December 22, 2010 (post effective CLCFs), are applied consistent with the character in which they originated as a new loss on the first day of the immediately succeeding tax year, and thus take precedent over the application of pre-effective CLCFs. Post-effective CLCFs can be carried forward indefinitely.

In order to meet certain excise tax requirements, the Funds are required to measure and distribute annually, net capital gains realized during the twelve month period ending October 31st. In connection with this requirement, the Funds are permitted, for tax purposes, to defer into their next fiscal year any net capital losses incurred from November 1st through the end of the fiscal year. As of June 30, 2012, the following Funds deferred, on a tax basis, post October losses and post December late-year losses of:

(d) Foreign Currency Translation
Values of investments denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars using a spot market rate of exchange each day. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend and interest income are translated to U.S. dollars using a spot market rate of exchange prevailing on the dates of such transactions. The portion of security gains or losses resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments, as appropriate, for both financial reporting and tax purposes.
Each Fund, respectively, bears the risk of changes in the foreign currency exchange rates and their impact on the value of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency. Each Fund also bears the risk of a counterparty failing to fulfill its obligation under a foreign currency contract.
Investments in securities of foreign companies involve additional risks including: currency exchange rate fluctuation; less available public information about the issuers of securities; less stringent regulatory standards; lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards; and country risks including less liquidity, high inflation rates and political and economic instability. The risks of foreign investments are typically greater in emerging and less developed markets.
(e) Indemnifications
Under the Funds' organizational documents, their officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
(f) Other
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from investment transactions by comparing the original cost of the specifically identified security lot sold with the net sale proceeds. Dividend income, less foreign taxes withheld, is recognized on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the information becomes available to the Funds. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. All discounts/premiums are accreted/amortized using the effective interest method and are included in interest income. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds' understanding of the applicable country's tax codes and regulations.
Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class) and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments attributable to the Funds are generally allocated to each respective class in proportion to the relative net assets of each class.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Net investment income and realized gains and losses for federal income tax purposes may differ from that reported on the financial statements because of permanent book-to-tax differences. GAAP requires that permanent differences in net investment income and realized gains and losses due to differences between financial reporting and tax reporting be reclassified between various

components of net assets. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended June 30, 2012, the following table shows the reclassifications made:

(3) INVESTMENT ADVISER AND RELATED PARTIES
The RobecoSAM Global Equity, MFG Global Equity, MFG Core Infrastructure, HEXAM Emerging Markets, Netols Small Cap Value and Phocas Small Cap Value Funds have entered into an agreement with Frontegra, with whom certain officers and a director of the Funds are affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Funds. Timpani, an affiliate of Frontegra, is the investment adviser to the Frontegra Timpani Small Cap Growth Fund. Lockwell is the investment adviser to the Lockwell Small Cap Value Fund. Fees are calculated daily and payable monthly, at annual rates set forth in the following table (expressed as a percentage of each Fund's average daily net assets). Pursuant to expense cap agreements, Frontegra, Timpani and Lockwell have agreed to waive their respective management fees and/or reimburse each Fund's operating expenses (exclusive of brokerage, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) to ensure that each Fund's operating expenses do not exceed the expense limitation listed below. Expenses waived are netted with advisory fees payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. On a monthly basis, these accounts are settled by each Fund making payment to the respective adviser or the respective adviser reimbursing the Fund if the reimbursement amount exceeds the advisory fee. If the amount of fees waived exceeds the advisory fee earned, this is shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable from the respective adviser. The expense cap agreements will continue in effect until October 31, 2013, with successive renewal terms of one year unless terminated by an adviser or a Fund prior to any such renewal.
Frontegra Fund | | Annual Advisory Fees | | Expense Limitation | |
RobecoSAM Global Equity | | | 0.80 | % | | | 1.20 | % | |

Phocas Small Cap Value | | | 1.00 | % | | | 1.10 | % | |
Lockwell Small Cap Value | | | 1.00 | % | | | 1.10 | % | |
Any waivers or reimbursements are subject to later adjustment to allow the advisers to recoup amounts waived or reimbursed to the extent actual fees and expenses for a fiscal period are less than each Fund's expense limitation cap, provided, however, that an adviser shall only be entitled to recoup such amounts for a period of three years from the date such amount was waived or reimbursed. Expenses attributable to a specific class may only be recouped with respect to that class.

The Frontegra Phocas Small Cap Value Fund entered into a subadministration agreement with Frontegra under which Frontegra provided certain shareholder and subadministrative services to Class I shareholders of the Fund. For its services, Frontegra, with whom certain officers and a director of the Fund are affiliated, received an annual fee of 0.11% of Class I average net assets. This fee was calculated daily and payable monthly. The subadministration agreement was terminated effective October 31, 2012.
The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities creates a presumption of control of the Funds. As of December 31, 2012, affiliates of Frontegra owned a controlling interest in the Frontegra MFG Core Infrastructure Fund and affiliates of Timpani owned a controlling interest in the Frontegra Timpani Small Cap Growth Fund. As of December 31, 2012, one shareholder owned a controlling interest in the Frontegra MFG Global Equity Fund, but is not considered an affiliate of Frontegra. Shareholders with a controlling interest could affect the outcome of proxy voting or the direction of management of a Fund.
