SHARE CLASS INFORMATION (Unaudited)
The Tamarack Fixed Income Funds offer five share classes, A, C, R, I, and S.
Class A
Class A shares are available for purchase primarily through investment advisors, broker dealers, banks and other financial services intermediaries. Class A shares of the Funds are subject to a maximum up-front sales charge of 3.75% and a 1.00% “CDSC” for redemption within 12 months of a $1 million or greater purchase. Class A shares include a 0.25% (25 bps) annual 12b-1 service and distribution fee. (The 12b-1 Plan allows for 50 bps, but the Funds’ distributor is currently contractually waiving 25 bps of the fee.) Class A shares have a higher up front sales charge (load) than Class C shares, but a lower annual expense ratio.
Class C
Class C shares are also available for purchase primarily through investment advisors, broker-dealers, banks and other financial services intermediaries. Class C shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase are subject to a CDSC of 1.00%. (No CDSC will be charged on shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends or capital gains.) Class C shares expenses include a 1.00% (100 bps) annual 12b-1 service and distribution fee. Class C shares have a lower up-front sales charge (load) than Class A shares, but due to the higher 12b-1 service and distribution fee, have higher annual expenses than Class A shares.
Class R
Class R shares are available for purchase through employer-sponsored or 401(k) retirement plans for which omnibus or program-level accounts are held on the books of the Funds. Class R shares have no upfront sales charge (load), but are subject to a 0.50% (50 bps) 12b-1 service and distribution fee. Class R shares currently have annual expenses between Class A and Class C share expenses.
Class S
Class S shares are available to investors purchasing shares directly through the Fund or its agent, BFDS, or through certain fee-based programs of broker dealers or registered investment advisors. This share class does not have an upfront sales charge (load) or a 12b-1 service and distribution fee.
Class I
Class I shares are available in the Quality Fixed Income Fund. This share class is intended for investors meeting certain minimum investment thresholds. This share class does not have an up front sales charge (load) or a 12b-1 service and distribution fee.
For an investor purchasing Tamarack Funds shares through a financial services intermediary, the question as to which share class, A or C, is the best choice is dependent on many factors, including the amount to be invested and the length of time an investor anticipates holding the shares. An investor should consult with his or her financial advisor about his or her personal financial situation to determine which share class is the best choice for his or her individual situation.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)
Information for Tamarack Funds Shareholders Regarding the Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreements
The Tamarack Board of Trustees has renewed the Investment Advisory Agreements with Voyageur Asset Management Inc. (“Voyageur” or the “Advisor”) for both of the Funds. After evaluating the services provided by the Advisor and reviewing the performance and relevant advisory fees and expenses of both Funds, the Trustees concluded that it was in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders to continue the Investment Advisory Agreements (“Agreements”).
As part of their review of the Agreements, the Trustees received and discussed certain information, including information regarding the advisory services performed, qualifications of staffing, and Fund performance and expenses. The Trustees considered information provided in advance of their in-person meeting, as well as supplemental information provided at the meeting. The Trustees met with representatives from the Advisor’s senior management team, as well as senior investment professionals, to discuss this information and Voyageur’s intentions with regard to the ongoing management of the Funds. The Trustees reviewed the quality of the services provided to the Funds by Voyageur, including information prepared by a third-party consultant as to both Funds’ performance relative to an appropriate benchmark as well as compared to the Fund’s appropriate peer group. The Trustees also reviewed the investment management fees payable to Voyageur. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed comparative information prepared by a third-party consultant on investment management fees paid and expenses incurred by similarly situated funds. The Trustees also received reports from Voyageur regarding other investment companies advised by it, including the advisory fees paid. The Trustees took into account profitability data for Voyageur included in the materials. The Trustees received information from Voyageur regarding other benefits derived from its relationships with the funds. In connection with their deliberations, the independent Trustees met separately with their independent legal counsel to review the relevant material and consider their responsibilities under relevant laws and regulations. In addition, the Trustees noted the expected composition of the portfolio management teams.
When evaluating the investment performance of the Funds, the Trustees generally emphasize three to five year returns, as opposed to shorter time periods. Nonetheless, the Board observed that the one-year performance for the Quality Fixed Income Fund had remained in the second quintile of its peer group and the Fund’s total expense structure was twenty-six basis points lower than its peer group median. The Tax-Free Income Fund’s three-year performance lagged behind its peer group but its one-year and five-year performance was in the middle quintile of its peer universe. In addition, the total expense structure of the Tax-Free Income Fund was one basis point lower than the median of its peer universe. Management proposed leaving both of these Funds at their current expense caps for the next fiscal year. In considering the quality of the services performed for each Fund by Voyageur, the Trustees discussed the strong research capabilities and fundamental analysis performed by the firm and also considered the extensive portfolio management experience of Voyageur staff, the compliance structure and systems established by Voyageur and the financial viability of Voyageur. The Trustees also considered steps that already had been taken by Voyageur to expand upon existing research capabilities and compliance processes and steps that were expected to be taken to maintain and/or enhance such capabilities and processes.
The Trustees also reviewed and approved Fund Management’s proposal to continue for an additional year the existing fee waivers for the Tax-Free Income and Quality Fixed Income Funds in order to maintain total expenses at their current levels.
Based upon their review, the Trustees determined that the advisory fees proposed to be payable to Voyageur were reasonable and fair in light of the nature and quality of services provided under all of the circumstances, and were within the range of what might have been negotiated at arms’ length. The Trustees concluded that it is in the interest of the Funds and their shareholders for the Trustees to approve the continuation of the Agreements for the Funds. In arriving at their decision to approve the renewal of both of the Agreements, the Trustees did not assign relative weights to the factors discussed above or deem any one or group of them to be controlling in and of themselves.

Shareholder Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Tamarack Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; 12b-1 distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Tamarack 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 from October 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, 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 table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
| | | | | | Beginning Account Value 10/1/2007 | | | Ending Account Value 3/31/2008 | | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/07-3/31/08 | | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/07-3/31/08 | |

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Tamarack Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of 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 sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, 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 would have been higher.
| | | | | | Beginning Account Value 10/1/2007 | | | Ending Account Value 3/31/2008 | | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/07-3/31/08 | | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/07-3/31/08 | |

LETTER FROM THE CIO OF FIXED INCOME
The securities markets experienced wrenching jolts during the first half of Tamarack Funds’ fiscal year. The concepts of innovation and leverage were often touted as the valuations and fixed income returns soared in housing, high yield, and structured credit securities. These same concepts also led to the drastic turn in the markets leading to the worst relative fixed income returns for non-Treasury holdings in modern history.
By now the fall of the U.S. housing market has been well documented. Cheap, easy, plentiful credit supported excesses on the parts of lenders and borrowers, and ultimately speculators. Ample liquidity, cultural biases to consumption, and the desire for quick, seemingly risk-less appreciation fed the speculative excess. Mistakes were made along the continuum from lender to borrower, and these primarily rested on an assumption that House Price Appreciation (HPA), a feature of this decade’s boom, would continue unabated. Sub-prime loans have attracted the most attention, but Alt-A, Option Arm, Reverse Amortization, and some Prime-based lending also proved to be poorly underwritten during the boom’s final phase.
HPA also supported the investment boom in mortgage and asset-backed securities (ABS and MBS) collateralized by such loans. Assumed HPA and the use of historical loss experience led rating agencies to assign AAA ratings to many of the securities created from these loans along with the Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDOs) constructed from these securities. Levered investors felt compelled to purchase these “high quality” issues because they received high relative yields, pristine credit ratings, and had the ability to leverage these returns several times over for their alternative asset class investors or for the benefit of their own investment enterprises. The rating agencies increasingly relied on fees for rating these structures to drive revenue growth. The brokers and global commercial banks considered this business to be a very lucrative source of fee revenue.
Everyone won . . . until home sales growth slowed, then reversed, and HPA turned to depreciation. This process began in the winter of 2006, and at this point consumers in the form of sub-prime borrowers and speculators began feeling pain. Small early cracks in the bond market real estate façade began forming last spring, but it was the unwinding of two Bear Stearns hedge funds that marked the beginning of the end for the securitized real estate markets.
What we have learned in the intervening months could fill several letters such as this one. In short, the willingness to suspend disbelief spread far and wide in both the housing and securities markets, at the rating agencies. Home prices have collapsed; the homebuilding and related industries are in crisis. Mortgage brokers, some guilty of lending abuses, closed their doors when no one would buy their loans any longer. Investment structures created from U.S. real estate lending traveled the globe, and as collateral performance deteriorated and prices fell for such issues, commercial banks around the world began writing down the value of these holdings on their balance sheets and in some off-balance sheet investment vehicles. To date, banks and insurance companies have written off nearly $300 billion in asset values due to poor underlying collateral performance and collapsing markets for such securities. Losses are ultimately expected to climb well north of $1 trillion.

LETTER FROM THE CIO OF FIXED INCOME
The loss of liquidity, capital available to effect the functioning of orderly markets, has had a telling effect on the bond market, still a largely negotiated, over-the-counter market. Bonds trade like real estate or used cars. With diminished risk appetites and trading capital, market-making in some precincts of the bond market has essentially ceased. The Auction Rate Student Loan market, a product with a 20-year history, shut down as dealers withdrew capital needed to support orderly auctions. Securities valuations have not only fallen relative to Treasuries in most segments of the U.S. bond market, but ascertaining the appropriate value for some assets has become extremely difficult. Not altogether dissimilar to what we see occurring in residential housing.
Policy responses to the global capital markets crisis have been generally forceful and rapid as both the Fed and the European Central Bank seem to have quickly understood the severity and breadth of the problems faced by our market. Massive amounts of liquidity have been injected into these markets in both conventional (the Fed having cut the Federal Funds rate from 5.25% to 2.25% in six-months’ time) and unconventional ways. As Bear Stearns approached collapse during the first calendar quarter of 2008, the Fed interceded both by using its own balance sheet to help engineer a sale of Bear to JP Morgan (a move without precedent) and by creating a series of four new liquidity programs made available both to banks and to broker-dealers. The Fed’s goal is to provide enough liquidity to avoid another Bear Stearns and continue on the path of making markets orderly again. It’s important to note, that these forceful responses have begun to thaw the lack of liquidity the bond market has been experiencing.
While policy makers continue searching for additional steps to improve market and economic conditions, such as the $150 billion U.S. stimulus package aimed at putting money in the hands of stretched consumers and the many changes to the lending mandates of such Government-Sponsored Enterprises as FHA, FNMA, and FHLMC, the truth is that the economic impact of the housing boom’s demise has been and will be far-reaching. U.S. housing inventories still appear bloated. Median home prices remain too high for the underlying fundamentals. Consumer and business confidence surveys have collapsed. The Fed has largely abandoned inflation-fighting for the moment. The dollar has been on a downward path relative to all our major trading partners’ currencies, and while this helps to support exports and narrows the trade deficit, domestically oriented businesses and consumers are left to deal with increased food, energy prices, and inflation risks.
The current environment is the most challenging bond market investors have faced in modern economic history. U.S. GDP growth will struggle to be flat for the first half of 2008. Many economists believe we have entered or will soon be in a recession. Securities valuations across the corporate, municipal, and non-agency mortgage and asset backed markets have collapsed. Many securities are being priced well below the underlying intrinsic values of the assets to which they are linked. We are seeking to seize this opportunity. Our investment philosophy of building strong, high quality, income- advantaged portfolios has not been altered by current events. Therefore, we are looking upon current market conditions as a rare point in time where we can be patient with our current holdings while prudently adding new investments in strong corporate and mortgage-related structures at distressed prices. Through this approach we will be adding to our portfolio’s yield, retaining a high average credit quality, picking up exceptional assets at distressed prices, and positioning our Funds for strong, future performance as monetary and fiscal policy begin repairing the market.

LETTER FROM THE CIO OF FIXED INCOME
It is also worth noting that the Tamarack Money Market Funds have continued to experience exemplary performance during this time period, both at the asset level and versus our peers. Many of our larger competitors have had to bail out underperforming and defaulted securities within their money funds over the past nine months. The list is large and encompasses many of the best known mutual fund families and financial institutions in the world. We have had no such problems within the Tamarack Funds or Voyageur Asset Management. Our time tested investment philosophy and disciplined investment process has protected principal while providing reliable income.
Ours is a business of trust. As a fiduciary for your assets, professional and ethical behavior is the standard for how we approach our investment discipline. We want to thank you for your trust and ongoing support for the Tamarack Funds.
Sincerely,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2008 (Unaudited)
1. Organization
Tamarack Funds Trust (“Tamarack”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as amended) as an open-end management investment company. Tamarack was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on December 16, 2003. Predecessor funds to Tamarack were reorganized as portfolios of Tamarack effective April 16, 2004. This semi-annual report includes the following six investment portfolios (“Funds”):
- Tamarack Prime Money Market Fund (“Prime Money Market Fund”)
- Tamarack U.S. Government Money Market Fund (“U.S. Government Money Market Fund”)
- Tamarack Tax-Free Money Market Fund (“Tax-Free Money Market Fund”)
- Tamarack Institutional Prime Money Market Fund (“Institutional Prime Money Market Fund”)
- Tamarack Institutional Tax-Free Money Market Fund (“Institutional Tax-Free Money Market Fund”)
- Tamarack Treasury Plus Money Market Fund (“Treasury Plus Money Market Fund”)
Voyageur Asset Management Inc. (“Voyageur”) acts as the investment adviser for Tamarack. The officers of Tamarack (“Fund Management”) are also employees of Voyageur or its affiliates and PFPC, Inc. (“PFPC”).
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Summarized below are the significant accounting policies of the Funds. These policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Fund management follows these policies when preparing financial statements. Management may also be required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Standard:
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current GAAP from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. The Funds do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the financial statement amounts; however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net assets for the period.
Security Valuation:
Securities held by the Funds are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value, in order to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share. If amortized cost no longer approximates market value due to credit or other impairments of an issuer, the Fund will use pricing and valuation procedures approved by Tamarack’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) to determine a security’s fair value.
Money market funds must invest exclusively in high quality securities. To be considered high quality, a security must be rated in one of the two highest short-term credit quality categories by a nationally recognized rating organization such as Standard & Poors Corporation or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. The Funds do not invest in any unrated securities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Investment Transactions and Income:
Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the security is bought or sold (“trade date”). Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are calculated based on the costs of the specific security (also known as identified cost basis). Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization or accretion of premium or discount using the effective yield method.
Financial Instruments:
The Funds may engage in when-issued transactions. The Funds record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain sufficient liquidity so that cash will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued basis are valued daily beginning on trade date and begin earning interest on the settlement date. As of March 31, 2008, the Funds held no when-issued securities.
Repurchase Agreements:
The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with primary dealers that report to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or the 100 largest U.S. commercial banks (as measured by domestic deposits) who are deemed creditworthy under guidelines approved by the Board. These repurchase agreements are subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase such securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the Funds plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates.
Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the Funds’ custodian bank until maturity of the repurchase agreement. The Funds have procedures to secure additional collateral, if needed, to ensure that the daily market value of the collateral remains in excess of the market value of the repurchase agreement in the event of a default.
Expense, Investment Income and Gain/Loss Allocation:
Each Fund pays the expenses that are directly related to its operations, such as custodian fees or investment advisory fees. Expenses incurred by Tamarack, such as trustee or legal fees, are allocated among each of the Funds either proportionately based upon each Fund’s relative net assets or using another reasonable basis such as equally across all Funds, depending on the nature of the expense.
Distributions to Shareholders:
Each Fund pays out any income that it receives, less expenses, in the form of dividends and capital gain distributions to its shareholders. Income dividends are declared daily and paid monthly. Dividends will also be paid at any time during the month upon total redemption of shares in an account. Capital gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions are calculated based on federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences may be either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are determined, as of the end of the tax year, to be permanent (e.g. expiring capital loss carryforward), they are reclassified within a Fund’s capital accounts based on their federal tax basis treatment. Such differences are not reflected in the calculation of the Financial Highlights.
Credit Enhancement:
Certain obligations held in the Funds have credit enhancement or liquidity features that may, under certain circumstances, provide for repayment of principal and interest on the obligation upon demand date, interest rate reset date or final maturity. These enhancements may include: letters of credit; liquidity guarantees; security purchase agreements; tender option purchase agreements; and third party insurance (i.e., AMBAC, FGIC and MBIA).
3. Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Tamarack has entered into investment advisory agreements with Voyageur under which Voyageur manages the Funds’ assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research and personnel. The agreements require the Funds to pay

Institutional Tax-Free Money Market Fund | | | | | All Net Assets | | | | 0.25 | % |
Treasury Plus Money Market Fund | | | | | All Net Assets | | | | 0.15 | % |
Voyageur had contractually agreed to waive fees and/or to make payments in order to keep total operating expenses of Treasury Plus Money Market Fund to 0.20%. This expense limitation agreement is in place until January 31, 2009. 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 Voyageur, any expenses in excess of the expense limitation and repay Voyageur such amounts, provided the Fund is able to effect such repayment and remain in compliance with the expense limitation stated above. Prior to January 31, 2008, Voyageur had contractually agreed to waive fees and/or to make payments in order to keep total operating expenses of Prime Money Market, U.S. Government Money Market and Tax-Free Money Market Funds to 0.80%, 0.78% and 0.70%, respectively. As of February 1, 2008, the contractual expense limitation agreements for Prime Money Market, U.S. Government Money Market and Tax-Free Money Market Funds were discontinued. Voyageur may also voluntarily waive and/or reimburse operating expenses of any Fund from time to time. Any such voluntary program may be changed or eliminated at any time without notice.
Tamarack Distributors Inc. is principal underwriter for shares of the Treasury Plus Money Market Fund; RBC Capital Markets Corporation (“RBC Capital Markets Corporation”) is principal underwriter for shares of the other Money Market Funds. RBC Capital Markets Corporation was the sole shareholder in the Treasury Plus Money Market Fund. Tamarack Distributors Inc. and RBC Capital Markets Corporation (together, referred as the “Distributors”) are affiliates of Voyageur. All fees for services to the Distributors are paid by Voyageur, not out of the Funds assets.
In addition, RBC Capital Markets Corporation provides services directly to the Funds as described under a Shareholder Account Services agreement. For the six months ended March 31, 2008, RBC Capital Markets Corporation received fees of $8,953,747, $576,486, $278,001, $37,537, and $11,337 from the Prime Money Market Fund, U.S. Government Money Market Fund, Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Institutional Prime Money Market Fund, and the Institutional Tax-Free Money Market Fund, respectively. These amounts are accrued as shareholder reports expense and transfer agent fees on the Statements of Operations.
Voyageur serves as co-administrator to the Funds. Effective October 8, 2007, PFPC became the Funds’ co-administrator and fund accounting agent. Prior to October 8, 2007, Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc. (formerly BISYS Fund Services Ohio, Inc.) (“Citi”) served as sub-administrator. Services provided under the administrative services contract include providing day-to-day administration of matters related to the Funds, maintenance of their records and the preparation of reports. Under the terms of the administrative services contract, Voyageur receives a fee from Prime Money Market Fund, U.S. Government Money Market Fund and Tax-Free Money Market Fund, payable monthly, at the annual rate of 0.25% of each Fund’s average daily net assets. PFPC receives a fee for its services payable by the Funds based on the Fund’s average net

assets. Voyageur’s fee is listed as “Administration fees” in the Statements of Operations. PFPC’s fee is included with “Accounting fees” in the Statements of Operations.
Certain Officers and Trustees of the Funds are affiliated with the adviser or the administrator. Such Officers and Trustees receive no compensation from the Funds for serving in their respective roles.
4. Federal Income Taxes
It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions applicable to certain investment companies, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains. Therefore, no federal tax liability is recorded in the financial statements of each Fund.
The Funds adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on March 30, 2008. The implementation of FIN48 resulted in no material liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no material change to the net asset value of the Funds at the beginning of the day. As of March 31, 2008, the Funds did not have a liability for any uncertain tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2004, by state authorities for tax years before 2003 and by tax authorities outside the U.S. for tax years before 2000.
The tax character of distributions during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007 were as follows:
| | | Distributions Paid From | | | | | | | | | | | |

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)
Information for Tamarack Funds Shareholders Regarding the Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreements
The Tamarack Board of Trustees has renewed the Investment Advisory Agreement with Voyageur Asset Management Inc. (“Voyageur” or the “Advisor”) for each of the Funds. After evaluating the services provided by the Advisor and reviewing the performance and relevant advisory fees and expenses of each Fund, the Trustees concluded that it was in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders to continue the Investment Advisory Agreement.
As part of their review of the Agreement, the Trustees received and discussed certain information, including information regarding the advisory services performed, qualifications of staffing, and Fund performance and expenses. The Trustees considered information provided in advance of their in-person meeting, as well as supplemental information provided at the meeting. The Trustees met with representatives from the Advisor’s senior management team, as well as senior investment professionals, to discuss this information and Voyageur’s intentions with regard to the ongoing management of the Funds. The Trustees reviewed the quality of the services provided to the Funds by Voyageur, including information prepared by a third-party consultant as to each Fund’s performance relative to an appropriate benchmark as well as compared to the Fund’s appropriate peer group. The Trustees also reviewed the investment management fees payable to Voyageur. In this connection, the Trustees reviewed comparative information prepared by a third-party consultant on investment management fees paid and expenses incurred by similarly situated funds. The Trustees also received reports from Voyageur regarding other investment companies advised by it, including the advisory fees paid. The Trustees took into account profitability data for Voyageur included in the materials. The Trustees received information from Voyageur regarding other benefits derived from its relationships with the funds. In connection with their deliberations, the independent Trustees met separately with their independent legal counsel to review the relevant material and consider their responsibilities under relevant laws and regulations. In addition, the Trustees noted the expected composition of each portfolio management team.
When evaluating the investment performance of the Funds, the Trustees observed that each Money Market Fund had one-year performance that was within a few basis points of each Fund’s peer group median. For this comparison, the universe of comparable funds as compiled by an independent third-party was used. The variances from peer group median ranged from ten basis points higher for the Institutional Prime Money Market Fund to eight basis points lower for the Tax-Free Money Market Fund. It was noted that the Tax-Free Money Market Fund’s yield may be expected to trail its peer group median since none of its income was subject to Alternative Minimum Tax during the entire fiscal year. The expense structure of the Money Market Funds also was within a reasonable range as compared to the relevant peer group. The expense variance from peer group medians ranged from eleven basis points lower for the Institutional Prime Money Market Fund to fourteen basis points higher for the Prime Money Market Fund.
In considering the quality of the services performed for each Fund by Voyageur, the Trustees discussed the strong research capabilities and fundamental analysis performed by the firm and also considered the extensive portfolio management experience of Voyageur, the compliance structure and systems established by Voyageur and the financial viability of Voyageur. The Trustees also considered steps that already had been taken by Voyageur to expand upon existing research capabilities and compliance processes and steps that were expected to be taken to maintain and/or enhance such capabilities and processes.
Based upon their review, the Trustees determined that the advisory fees proposed to be payable to Voyageur were reasonable and fair in light of the nature and quality of services provided under all of the circumstances, and were within the range of what might have been negotiated at arms’ length. The Trustees concluded that it is in the interest of the Funds and their shareholders for the Trustees to approve the continuation of the Agreement for the Funds. In arriving at their decision to approve the renewal of the Agreement, the Trustees did not assign relative weights to the factors discussed above or deem any one or group of them to be controlling in and of themselves.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)
Shareholder Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Tamarack Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; 12b-1 distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Tamarack 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 from October 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008.
Actual Expenses and Performance
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, 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 table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
| | | Beginning Account Value 10/1/2007 | | | Ending Account Value 3/31/2008 | | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/07-3/31/08 | | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/07-3/31/08 | |

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Tamarack Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of 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 sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, 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 would have been higher.
| | | Beginning Account Value 10/1/2007 | | | Ending Account Value 3/31/2008 | | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/07-3/31/08 | | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/07-3/31/08 | |
