LETTER FROM THE CIO OF EQUITIES | | | | | | |

| | | | | | |
Market Review The last six months proved extremely challenging for equity investors. Cumulatively, equity indices across all capitalization ranges lost on average approximately 35% of their value in one of the three worst bear markets on record. The heavier losses occurred during the fourth quarter of 2008. However, the New Year offered no respite. January 2009 proved the worst opening month on record for the S&P 500, which fell 8.4%. While a number of factors contributed to the market’s fall, the one central area concerning investors was the health of the U.S. and, furthermore, global financial systems. Major market averages put in new lows in November and again in early March as worries regarding the health of U.S. banks peaked. The March S&P 500 bottom equated to a level last experienced in 1996. As financials, especially banks, pulled the market down over these past two quarters, they also sparked a powerful rally in the period’s closing weeks. S&P financials rallied 46% off the March low, helping the broad averages to gains of about 9% for the month. While March ended strongly, the first quarter overall still delivered losses of 10-15% across the market cap spectrum. The late-period rally persisted into the early weeks of April, leading many to wonder whether we’ve seen the worst of this market already. In considering the entire six-month period we observe that large-cap stocks experienced the best relative returns. The lower one went in market cap the worse the relative return experience during this timeframe. Value and growth stocks did equally poorly during the fourth quarter of 2008, but growth stocks emerged as clear leaders in 2009’s first quarter. Not Your Average Recession To be clear, while Voyageur acknowledges the economy is mired in a deep recession with unusual challenges, we do not think comparisons to the Great Depression of the 1930s are valid. Nevertheless, this contraction is somewhat unique in many respects, including the underlying causes, the breadth and depth of economic weakness, and the fact that the entire world has suffered. As mentioned, the global banking system’s poor health was the spark that set our markets aflame. The causes are well-known by now: essentially a combination of extremely poor lending, borrowing, and investing decisions based on the erroneous assumption that home prices would rise without interruption. While the U.S. rightly accepts most of the blame for the consequences of the bursting real estate bubble, it’s clear that similar errors were also made in the U.K. and Europe. What generally differentiates this recession from the Great Depression is the global coordination and rapidity of policy responses to the crisis. Here in the U.S. we’ve seen the Federal Reserve take its policy rate down to essentially zero. They’ve introduced myriad programs aimed at providing or improving liquidity in a number of important corners of the financial system. They’ve embarked on pumping $1.2 trillion of cash into the economy | | | | | | |

| | | | through asset purchases which also provide the benefit of lower Treasury and mortgage lending rates. The federal government enacted an $800 billion stimulus package – cutting payroll taxes for most workers, providing financial aid to strapped state governments, dedicating funds to various infrastructure projects, and offering an $8,000 tax credit to first time home buyers. The Treasury and Fed are executing a plan to both assure the market’s confidence in the health of our major banks and to (finally) relieve these banks of some of their most troubled assets. The unemployment rate has exploded but is nowhere close to the 25% experienced during the Depression. A broad array of government support programs for the unemployed which did not exist in the ‘30s are in place today. Lastly, while there have been isolated exceptions there appears a strong global consensus to maintain an open trading system as major global leaders recognize the harmful impact protectionist policies would have on the economy. The Promises The administration has referred to early signs of stabilization or improvement in the economy as “green shoots.” The desire is that enough of these hopeful signs sprout and are fed by stimulus and monetary policy to halt and then reverse the economy’s slide. What do we see? The administration’s policy responses in both fiscal and monetary terms have been rapid and unprecedented. True, some of the proposals have seemed scattershot or indecisive, but the amount of intervention has been massive in scale. Coming quarters will begin to reveal the boost these programs should provide to the economy. The hope behind these stimulus efforts is that they spark a recovery that is self-sustaining. Fed policy changes work with variable lags, but if past form is followed a lower cost of capital, increased money supply, and improved access to credit should begin having a positive impact during the second half of this year. Rising unemployment presents a problem, but as we have already discussed, a number of counter-balances are in place: expanded unemployment insurance, a cut in payroll taxes, cash to help states balance their budgets with fewer program cuts and/or tax increases, and a material tax credit to incentivize first-time home buyers. Consumers have also been aided by the sharp drop in gasoline prices and inflation in general. Heavy refinancing of mortgage loans not only help put more cash in consumer pockets but provide a valuable stream of fee income and higher quality loans to banks that desperately need it. Another boon to consumers has been tax refunds, which so far this year are running on average over 10% higher than refunds last year. It’s fair to look at housing as the culprit behind this recession, and it will be necessary for housing markets to stabilize before the economy returns to a growth track. Inventories remain high, and prices appear at risk of some further decline. Still, we see some green shoots in the form of extremely high housing affordability. Sales paces are at depressingly low levels; however, we see promise in the fact that sales seem to have stabilized an even improved slightly from their lows. The months of supply at current sales paces have fallen for both new and existing homes. This is a key barometer for gauging the supply/demand |

balance in these markets. We are still in a state of excess supply, but we are moving in the right direction. Lastly, the stock market itself may be telling us something important at this very moment. Markets are forward-looking. Despite all the discouraging economic statistics, we’ve witnessed a strong rebound in stock prices that began in early March and continued well into April. Only in hindsight will we be able to say whether March 2009 marked the end of this bear market, but the rally must be taken as a support to the economy for now. Not only has the market risen lately, but volatility is down by over half from its 2008 peak. Volatility remains above long-term averages, and we would prefer to see it lower as another encouraging sign that this rally has legs. For now volatility is moving in the right direction. The Opportunity Emerging from recession and bearish periods stocks typically deliver strong and fast-moving recoveries that can more than offset losses incurred during the market decline. Pinpointing the date when a recession will end or when a sustained market recovery will begin is an impossible task. However, it’s at these moments after the markets have delivered their harshest blows that patient investors can potentially reap their greatest rewards. If you’ve resisted the urge to sell when things seemed darkest then we believe you are on the verge of seeing your portfolios begin to increase in value again. With earnings estimates having come down in response to the current economic environment market valuations appear quite attractive, and we’ve yet to enjoy any boost from the government’s policy prescriptions. Those who have been sidelined through this period or who currently have an allocation to equities below their normal range may wish to consider beginning to put some of their cash back to work. After witnessing the third-worst bear market on record the recovery we experience, when it comes, may be equally breathtaking. ![LOGO](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001193125-09-125146/g35109equity_pg5sig.jpg)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
March 31, 2009 (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 four investment portfolios (“Funds”):
- Tamarack Mid Cap Growth Fund (“Mid Cap Growth Fund”)
- Tamarack Enterprise Fund (“Enterprise Fund”)
- Tamarack Small Cap Core Fund (“Small Cap Core Fund”)
- Tamarack Microcap Value Fund (“Microcap Value Fund”)
The Mid Cap Growth, Enterprise and Small Cap Core Funds offer five share classes: Class A, Class C, Class R, Class I and Class S shares. The Microcap Value Fund offers four share classes: Class A, Class C, Class R and Class S shares. Class A shares are offered with a 5.75% maximum front-end sales charge and a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) for redemption within 12 months of a $1 million or greater purchase on which no front-end sales charge was paid. Class C shares are offered at net asset value (i.e. no front-end sales charge), but are subject to a CDSC of 1.00% for redemptions within 12 months of purchase. Class R shares (available to certain 401(k) and other employer-sponsored retirement plans), Class I shares (intended for investors meeting certain investment minimum thresholds) and Class S shares are not subject to either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC.
Voyageur Asset Management Inc. (“Voyageur”) acts as the investment advisor for Tamarack. The officers of Tamarack (“Fund Management”) are also employees of Voyageur or its affiliates or of PNC Global Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“PNC”).
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. The financial statements are as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
Security Valuation:
Equity securities are generally valued on the basis of prices furnished by pricing services approved by Tamarack’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Equity securities traded on one or more U.S. exchanges shall be valued at the last available quoted sale price on the primary trading exchange as of the valuation time. Valuation time is as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time). If there was no sale on the primary exchange on the day the net asset value is calculated, the most recent bid quotation generally will be used. In cases where neither closing prices nor bid prices are available, or where those prices do not accurately reflect the value of the security, a security will be valued in accordance with the Fund’s approved pricing and valuation procedures to determine a security’s fair value. These procedures are also used to determine the fair value of a security if a significant event occurs that materially affects the value of the security. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. Short-term securities with less than 60 days to maturity at time of purchase are valued at amortized cost.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”):
SFAS No. 157 clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS No. 157 are described below:
• Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
• Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
• Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The summary of inputs used to determine the fair valuation of the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2009 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
Funds | | Level 1 Quoted Prices | | Level 2 Significant Observable Inputs | | Level 3 Significant Unobservable Inputs | | Total |
| | | | |
Mid Cap Growth Fund | | $ | 62,163,896 | | $— | | $— | | $ | 62,163,896 |
Enterprise Fund | | | 108,398,250 | | — | | — | | | 108,398,250 |
Small Cap Core Fund | | | 27,598,398 | | — | | — | | | 27,598,398 |
Microcap Value Fund | | | 138,578,614 | | — | | — | | | 138,578,614 |
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 repurchase agreement in the event of a default.
Investment Transactions and Income:
Investment transactions are recorded on one business day after trade date, except on the last day of each fiscal quarter end, when they are recorded on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are calculated based on the cost 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.
Expense, Investment Income and Gain/Loss Allocation:
Each Fund pays the expenses that are directly related to its operations, such as custodian fees or adviser 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. Individual share classes within a Fund are charged expenses specific to that class, such as distribution fees. Within

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
a Fund, expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class based upon the proportion of relative net assets. Investment income and realized and unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class of shares based on relative net assets.
Real Estate Investment Trusts:
The Funds may own shares of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. Certain distributions received from REITs during the period, which are known to be a return of capital, are recorded as a reduction to the cost of the individual REIT.
Distributions to Shareholders:
Each Fund pays out any income that it receives, less expenses, in the form of dividends and capital gains to its shareholders. Income dividends and capital gains on each Fund 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., net operating loss, foreign currency transactions, distribution redisignations and prior year spillbacks ), 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.
3. Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Tamarack has entered into investment advisory agreements with Voyageur under which Voyageur manages each Fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research and personnel. The agreements require each Fund to pay Voyageur a monthly fee based upon average daily net assets. Under the terms of the advisory contracts, Voyageur is entitled to receive fees based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of each of the Funds as follows:
| | | | |
| | Average Daily Net Assets of Fund | | Annual Rate |
| | |
Mid Cap Growth Fund | | All Net Assets | | 0.70% |
| | |
Enterprise Fund | | Up to $30 million | | 1.40% |
| | Over $30 million | | 0.90% |
| | |
Small Cap Core Fund | | Up to $30 million | | 1.40% |
| | Over $30 million | | 0.90% |
Microcap Value Fund | | All Net Assets | | 0.90% |
Voyageur has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or make payments in order to keep total operating expenses of the Class S shares of each Fund and Class I shares of each Fund (except Microcap Value Fund, which does not offer Class I shares) to the following levels. This expense limitation agreement is in place February 1, 2009 until January 31, 2010.
| | |
| | Annual Rate |
| |
Mid Cap Growth Fund | | 1.10% |
Enterprise Fund | | 1.08% |
Small Cap Core Fund | | 1.30% |
Microcap Value Fund | | 1.07% |
Classes A, C, and R vary from these limits only by the addition of class-specific 12b-1 fees. Each 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. 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.

Under the terms of the administrative services contract, Voyageur receives from each Fund a fee, payable monthly, at the annual rate of 0.075% of each Fund’s average daily net assets. PNC receives a fee for its services payable by the Funds based on the Funds’ average net assets. Voyageur’s fee is listed as “Administration fees” in the Statements of Operations. PNC’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.
Independent Trustees (Trustees of Tamarack who are not directors, officers or employees of the adviser, administrator or distributor) receive from the entire Tamarack fund family an annual retainer of $20,000. The Board Chairperson and Audit Committee Chairperson each receive an additional retainer of $2,500 annually, and all other trustees serving as Chair of a Board committee each receive an additional retainer of $1,000 annually. In addition, Independent Trustees receive a quarterly meeting fee of $5,000 for each in-person Board meeting attended, a meeting fee of $1,000 for each telephonic or Special Board meeting attended, and a $1,000 fee for each Board committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses relating to attendance at such meetings.
4. Fund Distribution
Each of the Funds has adopted a Master Distribution 12b-1 Plan (the “Plan”) in which Tamarack Distributors Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Funds’ distributor. The Distributor is an affiliate of Voyageur. The Plan permits each Fund to make payments for or to reimburse the Distributor monthly for distribution-related costs and expenses of marketing shares of each share class covered under the Plan; and/or for providing shareholder services. The following chart shows the current Plan fee rate for each class.
| | | | | | |
| | Class A | | Class C | | Class R |
| | | |
12b-1 Plan Fee | | 0.25%* | | 1.00% | | 0.50% |
*The maximum Plan fee rate for Class A shares is 0.50%.The Distributor is contractually waiving 0.25% of the total 0.50% Plan fee for Class A at least through January 31, 2010.
Plan fees are based on average daily net assets of the applicable class. Up to 0.25% of each Plan fee may be designated as a Service Fee, as defined by the applicable rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Distributor, subject to applicable legal requirements, may waive a Plan fee voluntarily, in whole or in part.
For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the Distributor received commissions of $4,120 from front-end sales charges of Class A shares of the Funds, of which $828 was paid to affiliated broker-dealers, the remainder was either paid to unaffiliated broker-dealers or retained by the Distributor. The Distributor also received $272 from CDSC fees from Class C shares of the Funds. The Distributor received no CDSC fees from Class A shares of the Funds during the six months ended March 31, 2009.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
7. Federal Income Taxes
It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available 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, 2009, 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 2005 and by state authorities for tax years before 2004.
As of March 31, 2009, the tax cost of securities and the breakdown of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for each Fund were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Tax Cost of Securities | | Unrealized Appreciation | | Unrealized Depreciation | | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) |
| | | | |
Mid Cap Growth Fund | | $ | 74,098,367 | | $ | 4,046,821 | | $ | (15,981,293) | | $ | (11,934,472) |

The tax character of distributions during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Distributions Paid From |
| | Ordinary Income | | Net Long Term Capital Gains | | Total Taxable Distributions | | Total Distributions Paid* |
| | | | |
Mid Cap Growth Fund | | $ | — | | $ | 8,899,936 | | $ | 8,899,936 | | $ | 8,899,936 |

Microcap Value Fund | | | 4,259,319 | | | 22,189,910 | | | 26,449,229 | | | 26,449,229 |
*Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because distributions are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.
The tax basis of components of accumulated earnings/(losses) and tax character of distributions are determined at fiscal year end, and will be included in the Annual Report dated September 30, 2009.
8. Market Timing
Tamarack strongly discourages attempts at market timing by Fund shareholders. Each Fund charges a redemption fee of 2% of the value of the shares redeemed or exchanged within 30 days of purchase, in addition to limiting the number of exchanges that may be made between Funds to five (5) per calendar year. When assessed, the redemption fee is deducted from the redemption proceeds and retained by the Fund, not by Voyageur. This redemption fee is not charged in cases where, for example, the redemption results from an automatic reinvestment or asset re-allocation not specifically directed by the shareholder. Tamarack also reserves the right to reject any Fund purchase order made by persons deemed to be market timers. The Funds’ prospectus contains a full description of Tamarack’s policies on market timing and/or excessive trading.
41
|
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
During the six months ended March 31, 2009, the redemption fees collected by each Fund were as follows:
| | |
| | Redemption Fees |
| |
Mid Cap Growth Fund | | $ 19 |
Enterprise Fund | | 396 |
Small Cap Core Fund | | 39 |
Microcap Value Fund | | 186 |
9. Soft Dollars
The term soft dollars generally refers to arrangements in which services other than trade execution are received from a broker-dealer. Federal securities laws permit a fund advisor to incur commission charges on behalf of a Fund that are higher than another broker dealer would have charged if the advisor believes the charges are reasonable in relation to the brokerage and research services received. Voyageur has a fiduciary duty to the shareholders of the Funds to seek the best execution price for all of the Funds’ securities transactions. Fund management believes that using soft dollars to purchase brokerage and research services may, in certain cases, be in a Fund’s best interest. As of March 31, 2009, certain of the Funds used soft dollar arrangements on a limited basis. Fund management continues to closely monitor its current use of soft dollars, in addition to regulatory developments in this area for any possible impact on Fund policies.

SHARE CLASS INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) |
The Tamarack Equity Funds offer up to five share classes. These five share classes are the A, C, R, I, and S classes.
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 currently subject to a maximum up-front sales charge of 5.75% and a 1.00% CDSC for redemption within 12 months of a $1 million or greater purchase. Class A shares currently 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 voluntarily waiving 25 bps. The Distributor currently has no plans to discontinue this waiver.) 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.) C Class 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 service and distribution fee, have higher annual expenses than A Class 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 up-front 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 up-front sales charge (load) or a 12b-1 service and distribution fee.
Class I
Class I shares are available in the Mid Cap Growth, Enterprise, and Small Cap Core Funds. 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 better 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) |
Shareholder Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Tamarack Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) and (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, 2008 through March 31, 2009.
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.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) |
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.

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY - SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (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 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 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 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.
While, with the exception of the Small Cap Core Fund, the Funds’ performance generally ranked between the third and fifth quintiles of their respective peer groups for the three and five year periods, the Board observed that the performance of the Mid Cap Growth Fund ranked in the top quintile of its peer group for the one year period. Additionally, the Small Cap Core Fund ranked in the second quintile of its peer group for the one year period and the Enterprise and Micro Cap Value Funds’ performance was in the fourth quintile of their respective peer groups for the one year period. The expense comparisons ranged from first quintile (Enterprise Fund and Mid Cap Growth Fund) to the third quintile (Small Cap Core Fund) in their peer groups. In addition, the total expense structure for the Mid Cap Growth Fund was twenty four basis points lower than its peer group median and the Enterprise Fund was nineteen basis points lower than its peer group median.
The Trustees also reviewed and approved Fund Management’s proposal to continue for an additional year all existing fee waivers in order to maintain total expenses at their current levels. 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.
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.

LETTER FROM THE CIO OF FIXED INCOME | | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | |
The fixed income market has gradually reopened for business over the past several quarters. While the economy continued to contract at a record pace over the past two quarters, credit availability, as reflected in corporate bond new issue volumes, has certainly improved during this period. Government intervention and the introduction of important new guarantee programs have improved market sentiment. While the current economic environment is clearly daunting, we believe that preliminary signs of a consolidation or bottoming to the market volatility that has roiled the fixed income markets for much of the past two years are increasingly evident. More recently, credit spreads and risk premiums across all market sectors have been narrowing and trading flows are improving. There are extremely good long-term values to be had in nearly every sector of the fixed income market. Income or yield, in stark contrast to the past several years, will increasingly become the key differentiator of relative performance as we move ahead through 2009. That said, new risks will certainly emerge as the economy attempts to gain more permanent footing. Increasing default rates and the eventual pull back of government stimulus are two important areas of concern. The massive amounts of fiscal stimulus being put into the market will have a larger impact on the economy in 2010 and beyond as much of the stimulus will be distributed in future years. We are increasingly concerned with the interconnectedness of the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury. While the combined effects of monetary and fiscal stimulus may have suited the cultural and political will of the day, the Federal Reserve will need to prepare for inevitable inflationary pressures that will present themselves. Pulling back that stimulus will be extremely difficult. Future successes in the fixed income markets will equally be determined by carefully managing these new risks in light of the generational investment opportunities currently available in the marketplace. From an economic perspective, the major growth impediments remain the same: housing, consumers’ secular swing from debt-financed consumption toward saving, and stress in the financial system. The jobs situation will likely continue to worsen in upcoming quarters, further dampening prospects for a quick turnaround in the second half of 2009. While pending home sales, construction and manufacturing have recently exceeded lowered expectations, we continue to believe the key to a sustainable recovery is a real bottoming in the housing and labor markets. The fact remains that new and existing home inventories remain near record levels relative to demand – despite high affordability indices. Wealth destruction continues as equity and housing values have collapsed over the past six months. Consequently, personal savings rates (4.2% in February) skyrocketed as families repaired their balance sheets. In the fourth quarter net non-financial sector (ex-government) borrowing fell for the first time ever year-over-year. Household debt alone fell 2.0%. The consumer shift from debt-fueled consumption to thrift greatly contributes to the downward economic trajectory. Durable goods orders continued falling during the first quarter. Manufacturing capacity utilization rates are at post-war lows. The high durables inventory/sales ratio suggests further production cuts. These developments influence employment. An 8+% unemployment rate is widely expected to reach 10% by year-end. None of this bodes well for bank loan performance. Commercial real estate appears the next big challenge to bank loan quality. On a positive note, there may be early signs of recovery. Core retail sales (ex-building materials, vehicles, and gasoline) rose in January and February. March’s 20%+ recovery in the Dow Jones Industrial Average was the quickest (13 | | | | | | |

The Mortgage Application Index increased 58% since late January, and with 78% of those applications being refinancings, those borrowers’ net cash flow situation should improve. Consumers will likely also benefit from higher tax refunds as the IRS reports the average paid is up 9% versus this time last year. That said, the economy and our markets remain at risk to further volatility as we determine whether the fixed income markets have correctly called a bottom in economic activity. Looking ahead, while the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury have successfully employed multiple strategies to avoid a collapse of the U.S. financial system, we are highly skeptical of the use of low interest rates and leverage (PPIP and TALF) to permanently solve the current economic and financial crisis. Excess capacity needs to be driven out of the economy. The current slowdown has been impacted by too many goods chasing the marginal dollar of consumption. Until we can get supply more in balance with normalized demand, the economy will continue to stumble along. Interest rates will likely remain volatile within a relatively well defined range for each maturity for the foreseeable future. We do not expect the Federal Reserve to alter monetary policy in 2009. Treasury supply driven concerns will be offset by the reality of Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing program. Mortgage rates will remain stable and will continue to benefit from government support. Agency debentures and TLGP guaranteed corporate debt should continue to perform well in upcoming quarters. Despite increasing default rates, corporate bonds exhibit some of the strongest potential returns within the fixed income market over the next year. The municipal market also provides significant opportunities. Our strategy will continue to emphasize holding existing risk positions within our funds while at the same time prudently adding quality new issues at attractive valuation levels. We believe the actions we take today will continue to sow the seeds for stable and competitive relative performance in future periods. We appreciate your continued confidence and trust. 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, ![LOGO](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001193125-09-125146/g35109mm04_b.jpg)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
March 31, 2009 (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 five investment portfolios (“Funds”):
- Prime Money Market Fund (“Prime Money Market Fund”), formerly known as Tamarack Prime Money Market Fund
- U.S. Government Money Market Fund (“U.S. Government Money Market Fund”), formerly known as Tamarack U.S. Government Money Market Fund
- Tax-Free Money Market Fund (“Tax-Free Money Market Fund”), formerly known as Tamarack 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”)
Prior to November 21, 2008, each Fund offered a single class of shares. Effective November 21, 2008, the Prime Money Market Fund, U.S. Government Money Market Fund and Tax-Free Money Market Fund offer five share classes: RBC Institutional Class 1, RBC Institutional Class 2, RBC Investor Class, RBC Reserve Class and RBC Select Class. The Institutional Prime Money Market Fund and Institutional Tax-Free Money Market Fund continue to offer only one class of shares. Effective January 28, 2009, the Prime Money Market Fund, U.S. Government Money Market Fund and Tax-Free Money Market Fund were renamed as noted above.
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 or PNC Global Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“PNC”).
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. The financial statements are as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
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. See Note 7 for a listing of all securities that have been valued in the financial statements at 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”) :
SFAS No. 157 clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS No. 157 are described below:
• Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
• Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
• Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The summary of inputs used to determine the fair valuation of the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2009 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Funds | | Level 1 Quoted Prices | | Level 2 Significant Observable Inputs | | Level 3 Significant Unobservable Inputs | | Total |
Prime Money Market Fund | | $ | 300,559,225 | | $ | 12,181,237,761 | | $— | | $ | 12,481,796,986 |
U.S. Government Money Market Fund | | | 235,510,154 | | | 5,414,257,284 | | — | | | 5,649,767,438 |
Tax Free Money Market Fund | | | 28,453,401 | | | 967,430,417 | | — | | | 995,883,818 |
Institutional Prime Money Market Fund | | | 150,544,181 | | | 1,326,065,327 | | — | | | 1,476,609,508 |
Institutional Tax Free Money Market Fund | | | 13,904,364 | | | 444,538,000 | | — | | | 458,442,364 |
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, 2009, 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 by the dealers 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
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. Individual share classes within a Fund are charged expenses specific to that class, such as distribution fees. Within a Fund, expenses other that class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class based upon the proportion of relative net assets. Investment income and realized and unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class of shares based on relative net assets.
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 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 Voyageur a monthly fee based upon average daily net assets. Prior to November 21, 2008, (and for the entire period for Institutional Prime Money Market Fund and Institutional Tax Free Money Market Fund) under the terms of the advisory contract Voyageur was entitled to receive fees based on a percentage of the average daily net assets as follows:
| | | | | | |

This shareholder services administration fee is not paid pursuant to Rule 12b-1. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, Voyageur voluntarily waived shareholder servicing fees of $3,085 and $14 for Prime Money Market Fund and U.S. Government Money Market Fund, respectively.
Voyageur and PNC serve as co-administrators to the Funds.

Fees previously paid to Voyageur are listed as “Administration fees” in the Statements of Operations. PNC’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.
Independent Trustees (Trustees of Tamarack who are not directors, officers or employees of the adviser, administrator or distributor) receive from the entire Tamarack fund family an annual retainer of $20,000. The Board Chairperson and Audit Committee Chairperson each receive an additional retainer of $2,500 annually, and all other trustees serving as Chair of a Board committee each receive an additional retainer of $1,000 annually.

Plan fees are based on average daily net asset of the applicable class. Up to 0.25% of each Plan fee may be designated as a Service Fee, as defined by the applicable rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
Effective November 21, 2008, the Distributor has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses under an Expense Limitation Agreement in order to maintain the net annual fund operating expenses for each class of each Fund to the following amounts:

6. 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 31, 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, 2009, the Funds did not have a liability for any certain tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as
42
|
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
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 2005 and by state authorities for tax years before 2004.
The tax character of distributions during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Distributions Paid From | | | | |
| | Ordinary Income | | Total Taxable Distributions | | Tax Exempt Distributions | | Total Distributions Paid* |

Institutional Tax-Free Money Market Fund | | | 14,293 | | | 14,293 | | | 16,427,948 | | | 16,442,241 |
* Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because distributions are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.
The tax basis of components of accumulated earnings/(losses) and the tax character of distributions paid are determined at fiscal year end, and will be included in the Annual Report dated September 30, 2009.
As of September 30, 2008, the following Funds had net capital loss carryforwards to offset future net capital gains, if any:
| | | | | |
| | Capital Loss Carryforward | | Expires |
Prime Money Market Fund | | $ | 3,069 | | 2013 |

| | | 39,175 | | 2015 |
Under current tax law, capital losses realized after October 31 of a Fund’s fiscal year may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. The following Fund had deferred post October capital losses, which will be treated as arising on the first business day of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2009 and as such are included in current year earnings.

7. Capital Support Agreement
On September 23, 2008, Prime Money Market and Institutional Prime Money Market Funds each entered into a Capital Support Agreement (“Agreement”) with Voyageur to maintain each Fund’s net asset value at no less than $0.9950 or such greater amount as required by any national recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”). The Agreements require Voyageur to commit capital to the Funds, subject to the aggregate limit of $150 million and $50 million for the Prime Money Market Fund and Institutional Prime Money Market Fund, respectively, if a Fund realizes a loss on payments or sales proceeds from specified securities (“Eligible Notes”) held by the Funds which are less than the amortized cost of such securities and such loss causes the Fund’s mark-to-market net asset value to drop below $0.9950. The mark-to-market net asset value is calculated using the market value of all securities in the Prime Money Market and Institutional Prime Money Market Funds. The
43
|
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
net asset value in the financial statements is calculated using the amortized cost for all securities except the Eligible Notes. The Eligible Notes held in the Funds on March 31, 2009 are footnoted on the respective Schedule of Portfolio Investments. Upon the sale or other disposition of an Eligible Note, the amount of required capital commitment would be the least of the following amounts: (i) the amount, if any, by which the amortized cost of the Eligible Note exceeds the amount realized from the sale or other disposition of the security; (ii) the amount, if any, necessary to restore the net asset value per share of the Fund to $0.9950, or (iii) the remaining amount of the aggregate limit of the Agreement, taking into account all prior contributions. Voyageur’s obligations under the Agreements are supported by a Letter of Credit issued by Royal Bank of Canada, an indirect parent company of Voyageur, having a First Tier credit rating. The Funds will draw on the Letter of Credit in the event that Voyageur fails to make a cash contribution when due under the Agreement.
The Funds will sell the Eligible Notes (i) within thirty (30) calendar days following any change in the Letter of Credit provider’s short term credit ratings such that the Letter of Credit provider’s obligations no longer qualify as First Tier Securities as defined in paragraph (a)(12) of Rule 2a-7, or (ii) on the business day immediately prior to the termination date of the Agreement; provided that the Funds are not required to complete any such sale if the amount the Funds expect to receive would not result in the payment of a Capital Contribution, or, with respect to an event described in (i) above, if Voyageur substitutes an obligation or credit support that satisfies the requirement of a First Tier Security within fifteen (15) calendar days from the occurrence of such event and, during such 15 day period, the Letter of Credit provider’s obligations continue to qualify as Second Tier Securities under paragraph (a)(22) of Rule 2a-7. The termination date of the Agreement is October 9, 2009 for the Prime Money Market Fund and September 4, 2009 for the Institutional Prime Money Market Fund.
In the event that the Fund receives a capital contribution from Voyageur with respect to an Eligible Note and subsequently receives additional payments from or on behalf of the issuer of the Eligible Note, the Fund shall repay Voyageur the lesser of the amount of capital contribution or the amount of such subsequent payments, provided than in no event the effect of such repayment to Voyageur causes the Fund’s net asset value per share to fall below $0.995 or such greater amount required by NRSRO.
The following tables show the Eligible Notes and their amortized cost and fair value as of March 31, 2009:

The Prime Money Market, U.S. Government Money Market, Tax-Free Money Market, Institutional Prime Money Market and Institutional Tax-Free Money Market Funds (the “Participating Funds”), participate in the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the”Program”) which expires September 18, 2009. Subject to certain conditions and limitations, in the event that the per share value of a Participating Fund falls below $0.995 and the Participating Fund liquidates its holdings, the Program will provide coverage to shareholders in the Participating Fund for up to $1.00 per share for the lesser of either the number of shares the investor held in the Fund at the close of business on September 19, 2008 or the number of shares the investor held the date the per share value fell below $0.995.

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 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 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 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.
The Trustees observed that the Funds, except the Institutional Prime and Institutional Tax-Free Funds, ranked in the fifth quintile of their peer groups for the one, three and five year periods. The Institutional Prime Fund ranked in the second quintile of its peer group and peer universe for the same time periods. The Board also noted that the Funds’ expense comparisons ranged from the third quintile (Institutional Prime Fund) to the fifth quintile (Prime and Tax-Free Funds) in their peer groups. 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.
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 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) and (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, 2008 through March 31, 2009.
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.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) |
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.

LETTER FROM THE CIO OF FIXED INCOME | | | | | | |
| | | |
| | | | | | |
The fixed income market has gradually reopened for business over the past several quarters. While the economy continued to contract at a record pace over the past two quarters, credit availability, as reflected in corporate bond new issue volumes, has certainly improved during this period. Government intervention and the introduction of important new guarantee programs have improved market sentiment. While the current economic environment is clearly daunting, we believe that preliminary signs of a consolidation or bottoming to the market volatility that has roiled the fixed income markets for much of the past two years are increasingly evident. More recently, credit spreads and risk premiums across all market sectors have been narrowing and trading flows are improving. There are extremely good long-term values to be had in nearly every sector of the fixed income market. Income or yield, in stark contrast to the past several years, will increasingly become the key differentiator of relative performance as we move ahead through 2009. That said, new risks will certainly emerge as the economy attempts to gain more permanent footing. Increasing default rates and the eventual pull back of government stimulus are two important areas of concern. The massive amounts of fiscal stimulus being put into the market will have a larger impact on the economy in 2010 and beyond as much of the stimulus will be distributed in future years. We are increasingly concerned with the interconnectedness of the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury. While the combined effects of monetary and fiscal stimulus may have suited the cultural and political will of the day, the Federal Reserve will need to prepare for inevitable inflationary pressures that will present themselves. Pulling back that stimulus will be extremely difficult. Future successes in the fixed income markets will equally be determined by carefully managing these new risks in light of the generational investment opportunities currently available in the marketplace | | | | | | |
| | | |
From an economic perspective, the major growth impediments remain the same: housing, consumers’ secular swing from debt-financed consumption toward saving, and stress in the financial system. The jobs situation will likely continue to worsen in upcoming quarters, further dampening prospects for a quick turnaround in the second half of 2009. While pending home sales, construction and manufacturing have recently exceeded lowered expectations, we continue to believe the key to a sustainable recovery is a real bottoming in the housing and labor markets. The fact remains that new and existing home inventories remain near record levels relative to demand – despite high affordability indices. Wealth destruction continues as equity and housing values have collapsed over the past six months. Consequently, personal savings rates (4.2% in February) skyrocketed as families repaired their balance sheets. In the fourth quarter net non-financial sector (ex-government) borrowing fell for the first time ever year-over-year. Household debt alone fell 2.0%. The consumer shift from debt-fueled consumption to thrift greatly contributes to the downward economic trajectory. Durable goods orders continued falling during the first quarter. Manufacturing capacity utilization rates are at post-war lows. The high durables inventory/sales ratio suggests further production cuts. These developments influence employment. An 8+% unemployment rate is widely expected to reach 10% by year-end. None of this bodes well for bank loan performance. Commercial real estate appears the next big challenge to bank loan quality. On a positive note, there may be early signs of recovery. Core retail sales (ex-building materials, vehicles, and gasoline) rose in January and February. March’s 20%+ recovery in the Dow Jones Industrial Average was the quickest (13 | | | | | | |

| | | | | | trading days) since 1938. The Mortgage Application Index increased 58% since late January, and with 78% of those applications being refinancings, those borrowers’ net cash flow situation should improve. Consumers will likely also benefit from higher tax refunds as the IRS reports the average paid is up 9% versus this time last year. That said, the economy and our markets remain at risk to further volatility as we determine whether the fixed income markets have correctly called a bottom in economic activity |

| | | | | | Looking ahead, while the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury have successfully employed multiple strategies to avoid a collapse of the U.S. financial system, we are highly skeptical of the use of low interest rates and leverage (PPIP and TALF) to permanently solve the current economic and financial crisis. Excess capacity needs to be driven out of the economy. The current slowdown has been impacted by too many goods chasing the marginal dollar of consumption. Until we can get supply more in balance with normalized demand, the economy will continue to stumble along. Interest rates will likely remain volatile within a relatively well defined range for each maturity for the foreseeable future. We do not expect the Federal Reserve to alter monetary policy in 2009. Treasury supply driven concerns will be offset by the reality of Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing program. Mortgage rates will remain stable and will continue to benefit from government support. Agency debentures and TLGP guaranteed corporate debt should continue to perform well in upcoming quarters. Despite increasing default rates, corporate bonds exhibit some of the strongest potential returns within the fixed income market over the next year. The municipal market also provides significant opportunities. Our strategy will continue to emphasize holding existing risk positions within our funds while at the same time prudently adding quality new issues at attractive valuation levels. We believe the actions we take today will continue to sow the seeds for stable and competitive relative performance in future periods. We appreciate your continued confidence and trust. Sincerely, ![LOGO](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001193125-09-125146/g35109income-pg4b.jpg)

The graph reflects an initial investment of $10,000 over a 10 year period and is based on Class S shares. The performance of the Fund for the period from March 31, 1999 to April 19, 2004 reflects the performance of D.L Babson Tax-Free Income Fund, the predecessor to Tamarack Tax-Free Income Fund. The Fund’s total return includes reinvested dividends and capital gains. The Fund’s total return also includes operating expenses that reduce return, while the total return of the index does not. The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares. Performance of other classes will vary due to differences in fee structures. | | | | | | |

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 two investment portfolios (“Funds”):
- Tamarack Quality Fixed Income Fund (“Quality Fixed Income Fund”)
- Tamarack Tax-Free Income Fund (“Tax-Free Income Fund”)
The Quality Fixed Income Fund offers four share classes: Class A, Class R, Class I, and Class S shares. The Tax-Free Income Fund offers three share classes: Class A, Class C, and Class S shares. Class A shares are offered with a 3.75% maximum front-end sales charge and a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) for redemption within 12 months of a $1 million or greater purchase on which no front-end sales charge was paid. Class C shares are offered at net asset value (i.e. no front-end sales charge), but are subject to a CDSC of 1.00% for redemptions within 12 months of purchase. Class R shares (available to certain 401(k) and other employer-sponsored retirement plans), Class I shares (intended for investors meeting certain investment minimum thresholds) and Class S shares are not subject to either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC.
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 or PNC Global Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“PNC”).
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. The financial statements are as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
Security Valuation:
Bonds and other fixed income securities are generally valued on the basis of prices furnished by pricing services approved by Tamarack’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The pricing services utilize both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques that take into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue and trading characteristics other than market data and without exclusive reliance upon quoted prices of exchanges or over-the-counter prices, since these valuations are believed to reflect more accurately the fair value of such securities. Short-term debt obligations with less than 60 days to maturity at time of purchase are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value, unless Fund Management determines that amortized cost no longer approximates market value due to credit or other impairments of the issuer. In such cases where a security price is unavailable, or where Fund Management determines that the value provided by the pricing services or amortized cost does not approximate fair value, the Board has approved pricing and valuation procedures to determine a security’s fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. Exchange traded financial futures are valued at the settlement price as established by the exchange on which they are traded.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”) :
SFAS No. 157 clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS No. 157 are described below:
• Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
• Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
• Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities
The summary of inputs used to determine the fair valuation of the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2009 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Funds | | Level 1 Quoted Prices | | Level 2 Significant Observable Inputs | | Level 3 Significant Unobservable Inputs | | Total |
Assets: | | | | | | | | |
Investments in Securities | | | | | | | | |
Quality Fixed Income Fund | | $1,397,762 | | $39,637,907 | | $29,530 | | $41,065,199 |
Tax Free Income Fund | | 400,211 | | 14,977,424 | | — | | 15,377,635 |
Following is a reconciliation of Level 3 investments for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:
| | | |
| | Quality Fixed Income Fund |
| |
Balance as of 10/01/08 (market value) | | $ | 454,840 |
Change in unrealized (depreciation) * | | | (425,310) |

Balance as of 3/31/09 (market value) | | $ | 29,530 |
* Net change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) in level 3 securities still held at March 31, 2009.
Recent Accounting Standards:
In March 2008, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”) and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosure that enables investors to understand how and why an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position. Management is currently evaluating the implications of SFAS 161. The impact on the Funds’ financial statement disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.
Investment Transactions and Income:
Investment transactions are recorded one business day after trade date, except for on the last day of each fiscal quarter end, when they are recorded on 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 and accretion of premium or discount using the effective yield method. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage and asset-backed securities are included in
24
|
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
the financial statements as interest income. Interest income on U.S. Treasury inflation indexed securities is accrued daily based upon the inflation adjusted principal. Additionally, any increase in the principal or face amount of the securities adjusted for inflation is recorded as interest income.
Expense, Investment Income and Gain/Loss Allocation:
Each Fund pays the expenses that are directly related to its operations, such as custodian fees or adviser 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. Individual share classes within a Fund are charged expenses specific to that class, such as distribution fees. Within a Fund, expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class based upon the proportion of relative net assets. Investment income and realized and unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class of shares based upon the proportion of relative net assets.
Financial Instruments:
The Funds may engage in when-issued transactions. A Fund would record when-issued securities one business day after 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 the trade date and begin accruing interest on the settlement date. When-issued securities, if any, would be identified in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments.
The Funds may enter into futures contracts in an effort to manage the duration of the portfolio or to hedge against market risk. A futures contract on a securities index is an agreement obligating one party to pay, and entitling the other party to receive, during the term of the contract, cash payments based on the level of a specified securities index. Futures transactions involve brokerage costs and require a Fund to segregate assets to cover contracts that would require it to purchase securities or currencies. A Fund may lose the expected benefit of futures transactions if interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices change in an unanticipated manner. Such unanticipated changes may also result in lower overall performance than if a Fund had not entered into any futures transactions.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash, U.S. government securities, or other assets, equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying index. A Fund recognizes an unrealized gain or loss each day equal to these daily payments.
Distributions to Shareholders:
Each Fund pays out any income that it receives, less expenses, in the form of dividends and capital gains 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 gain distributions 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. reclassification of paydown gains and losses and re-designation of distributions), 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 each Fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research and personnel. The agreements require each Fund to pay Voyageur a monthly fee based upon average daily net assets. Under the terms of the advisory contracts, Voyageur is entitled to receive fees based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of each of the Funds as follows:
| | |
| | Annual Rate |
Quality Fixed Income Fund | | 0.60% |
Tax-Free Income Fund | | 0.85% |
Voyageur has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or to make payments in order to keep total operating expenses of the Class S and Class I shares of Quality Fixed Income to 0.68% and Class S Shares of Tax-Free Income to 0.74%. Class A, C and R shares vary from these limits only by the addition of class specific 12b-1 fees. These expense limitation agreements are in place until January 31, 2010. Each 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. Voyageur may also voluntarily waive and/or reimburse additional fund operating expenses of any Fund from time to time. Any such voluntary program may be changed or eliminated at any time without notice.
Voyageur serves as co-administrator to the Funds. PNC serves as co- administrator and fund accounting agent. 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 from each Fund a fee, payable monthly, at the annual rate of 0.075% of each Fund’s average daily net assets. PNC receives a fee for its services payable by the Funds based on the Funds’ average net assets. Voyageur’s fee is listed as “Administration fees” in the Statements of Operations. PNC’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.
Independent Trustees (Trustees of Tamarack who are not directors, officers or employees of the adviser, administrator or distributor) receive from the entire Tamarack fund family an annual retainer of $20,000. The Board Chairperson and Audit Committee Chairperson each receive an additional retainer of $2,500 annually, and all other trustees serving as Chair of a Board committee each receive an additional retainer of $1,000 annually. In addition, Independent Trustees receive a quarterly meeting fee of $5,000 for each in-person Board meeting attended, a meeting fee of $1,000 for each telephonic or Special Board meeting attended, and a $1,000 fee for each Board committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses relating to attendance at such meetings.
4. Fund Distribution
Each of the Funds has adopted a Master Distribution 12b-1 Plan (the “Plan”) in which Tamarack Distributors Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Funds’ distributor. The Distributor is an affiliate of Voyageur. The Plan permits each Fund to make payments for, or to reimburse the Distributor monthly for, distribution-related costs and expenses of marketing shares of each share class covered under the Plan, and/or for providing shareholder services. The following chart shows the current Plan fee rate for each class.
| | | | | | |
| | Class A | | Class C | | Class R |
12b-1 Plan Fee | | 0.25%* | | 1.00% | | 0.50% |
26
|
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
*The maximum Plan fee rate for Class A shares is 0.50%. The Distributor is contractually waiving 0.25% of the total 0.50% Plan fee for Class A through January 31, 2010.
Plan fees are based on average annual daily net assets of the applicable class. The Distributor, subject to applicable legal requirements, may waive a Plan fee voluntarily, in whole or in part.
For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the Distributor received no commissions from front-end sales charges of Class A shares of the Funds. The Distributor received no CDSC fees from the Funds during the six months ended March 31, 2009.
5. Securities Transactions
The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding securities maturing less than one year from acquisition) for the six months ended March 31, 2009 were as follows:

7. 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 31, 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, 2009, 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 2005 and by state authorities for tax years before 2004.
As of March 31, 2009, the tax cost of securities and the breakdown of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for each Fund were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Cost of Securities | | Unrealized Appreciation | | Unrealized Depreciation | | Net Unrealized Depreciation |
Quality Fixed Income Fund | | $ | 48,890,559 | | $ | 776,186 | | $ | (8,601,546) | | $ | (7,825,360) |

*Total Distributions Paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because distributions are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.
The tax basis of components of accumulated earnings/(losses) and the tax character of distributions paid are determined at fiscal year end, and will be included in the Annual Report dated September 30, 2009.
As of September 30, 2008, the following Fund had net capital loss carryforwards to offset future net capital gains, if any:

8. Market Timing
Tamarack strongly discourages attempts at market timing by Fund shareholders. Each Fund charges a redemption fee of 2% of the value of the shares redeemed or exchanged within 30 days of purchase, in addition to limiting the number of exchanges that may be made between Funds to five (5) per calendar year. When assessed, the redemption fee is deducted from the redemption proceeds and retained by the Fund, not by Voyageur. This redemption fee is not charged in cases where, for example, the redemption results from an automatic reinvestment or asset re-allocation not specifically directed by the shareholder. Tamarack also reserves the right to reject any Fund purchase order made by persons deemed to be market timers. The Funds’ prospectus contains a full description of Tamarack’s policies on market timing and/or excessive trading. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, there were no redemption fees collected by the Funds.
9. Subsequent Event
On May 11, 2009, the Board unanimously voted to liquidate the Tax-Free Income Fund. This decision was made after careful consideration of the Fund’s operations, asset size and current expenses. Effective on or about May 13, 2009, the Fund will suspend all purchases and exchanges into the Fund other than purchases through dividend reinvestment, in order to facilitate an orderly liquidation on or after June 30, 2009. As disclosed in the Prospectus, the Tax-Free Income Fund is permitted to depart from its stated investment objective and policies and hold cash and cash equivalent positions as a temporary defensive measure to preserve value. In anticipation of the liquidation, the Tax-Free Income Fund intends to begin to sell its portfolio holdings in exchange for cash, U.S. government securities and/or other short-term debt instruments.

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) |
Shareholder Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Tamarack Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) and (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, 2008 through March 31, 2009.
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 10/1/2008 | | Ending Account Value 3/31/2009 | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/08-3/31/09 | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/08-3/31/09 |
Quality Fixed Income Fund | | Class A | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ 958.00 | | $4.54 | | 0.93% |
| | Class I | | | 1,000.00 | | 959.20 | | 3.32 | | 0.68% |
| | Class R | | | 1,000.00 | | 957.10 | | 5.42 | | 1.11% |
| | Class S | | | 1,000.00 | | 959.20 | | 3.32 | | 0.68% |
| | | | | |
Tax Free Income Fund | | Class A | | | 1,000.00 | | 1,017.40 | | 4.98 | | 0.99% |
| | Class C | | | 1,000.00 | | 1,013.60 | | 8.68 | | 1.73% |
| | Class S | | | 1,000.00 | | 1,018.60 | | 3.72 | | 0.74% |
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 10/1/2008 | | Ending Account Value 3/31/2009 | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/08-3/31/09 | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/08-3/31/09 |

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY - SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (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 both of the Funds. After evaluating the services provided by the Advisor and reviewing the performance and relevant 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 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.
The Board observed that the Quality Fixed Income Fund ranked in the fifth quintile of its peer group for the one and three year periods and the Fund’s total expense structure was twenty-three basis points lower than its peer group median. The Tax-Free Income Fund ranked in the second quintile for the one and three year periods, the fifth quintile for the five year period and its one-year performance was in the top quintile of its peer universe. In addition, the total expense structure of the Tax-Free Income Fund was two basis points lower than the median of its peer group. 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.

LETTER FROM THE CIO | | | | | | |
| | | |
| | | | | | |
Dear Shareholder: The mission of the Access Capital Community Investment Fund (the “Fund”) is to provide double bottom line returns, both economically and to the community, through investments in debt securities that support community development activities serving low and moderate income individuals and communities in the United States. These activities include investments in homeownership, affordable housing, education, community health centers and small businesses. The Fund invests in securities with the highest credit ratings or that are issued by the U.S. Government, government agencies and government-sponsored enterprises such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. This report covers the six month period from the end of the Fund’s last fiscal year, September 30, 2008, through March 31, 2009. The Fund is now in its eleventh year of operation. Portfolio Management Report For the six months ended March 31, 2009, Class I Shares of the Fund had a net total return of 4.61%, based upon the net asset value of $9.59 per share on March 31, up from $9.41 at September 30, 2008 and unchanged from March 31, 2008, and assuming reinvestment of $0.25 per share ordinary income dividends. For the year ended March 31, 2009, Class I Shares of the Fund had a net total return of 5.37%, assuming reinvestment of $0.49 per share ordinary income dividends. The Class I Shares of the Fund’s six month net total return of 4.61% exceeded that of the Barclay’s Capital U.S. Securitized Index which was 4.33%. The one year net total return for the Class I Shares of 5.37% compares favorably with a total return of 4.44% for the Barclay’s Capital U. S. Securitized Index. We remain in a historic time for the capital markets. In our last report we spoke of the positive impact that the placement of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac into Federal Conservatorship had on our portfolio holdings. In the most recent six month period we have experienced massive buying of Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS) by the U.S. Government as part of a concerted effort to make mortgage refinancing more attractive. These purchases have brought support to the entire MBS sector and have contributed to the Fund’s strong performance. We are positive on the prospects for the sectors we invest in and continue to feel that our form of community investment offers a win-win for you, our shareholders, and for the citizens and communities across the country who benefit from the investments we make. | | | | | | |

Since inception, the Fund has owned more than 9,800 mortgages for low and moderate income individuals and over 6,400 units of affordable rental units. Total small business loans total more than 250. We are proud of these results and thank you, our shareholders, for allowing us to work on your behalf over the years.

At the end of the period, the Class I Shares’ 30-day current yield, calculated by our portfolio administrator using the methodology recommended by the SEC, was 5.02%.

For performance data current to most recent month-end go to www.voyageur.net The Barclays Capital U.S. Securitized Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of mortgage-backed pass-through securities issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, investment-grade bonds and asset-backed securities. The Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of a representative list of government, corporate, asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities. The 80/20 Composite Index is an unmanaged index weighted 80% to the Merrill Lynch Conventional 30-Year Mortgage Backed Securities Index and 20% to the Merrill Lynch 1-10 Year U.S. Treasury Index. The Merrill Lynch Conventional 30-Year Mortgage Backed Securities Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of 30-Year fixed-rate residential mortgage pass-through securities issued by Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac with at least one year remaining term to final maturity. The Merrill Lynch 1-10 Year U.S. Treasury Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury with between one and ten years remaining to final maturity. (a) The inception date for Class A shares of the Fund is January 29, 2009. All performance shown for such class of shares prior to its inception date is based on the performance of the Class I shares of the Fund, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses of Class A shares, as applicable. (b) Class I commenced operations on July 28, 2008. The performance in the table reflects the performance of Access Capital Strategies Community Investment Fund, Inc., the predecessor to the Fund. From its inception, June 23, 1998, until May 30, 2006, the predecessor fund elected status as a business development company. From May 31, 2006 until July 27, 2008, the predecessor fund operated as a continuously offered closed-end interval management company. If the predecessor fund had operated as an open-end management company, performance may have been adversely affected. Fund performance reflects applicable fee waivers/expense reimbursements which, if excluded, would cause performance to be lower. (c) You cannot invest directly into the index. * The expense ratios are from the Fund’s prospectus dated January 28, 2009. Additional information pertaining to the Fund’s expense ratios as of March 31, 2009 can be found in the financial highlights. |

The graph reflects an initial investment of $10,000 over a 10 year period and is based on Class I Shares. The Fund’s total return includes reinvested dividends and capital gains. The Fund’s total return also includes operating expenses that reduce return, while the total return of the indices do not. The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemption of fund shares.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
March 31, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization
Tamarack Funds Trust (“Tamarack”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on December 16, 2003. Overall responsibility for the management of Tamarack is vested in its Board of Trustees (the “Board”). This semi-annual report includes the Access Capital Community Investment Fund (the “Fund”). At its inception in 1998, the Access Capital Strategies Community Investment Fund, Inc. the Fund’s predecessor, elected status as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), but withdrew its election on May 30, 2006, and registered as a continuously offered, closed-end interval management company under the 1940 Act. The predecessor fund was reorganized into a series of Tamarack, a registered open-end management company under the 1940 Act, effective July 28, 2008.
The Fund offers two share classes: Class A and Class I shares. Class A shares are offered with a 3.75% maximum front-end sales charge and a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) for redemption within 12 months of a $1 million or greater purchase on which no front-end sales charge was paid. Class I shares (intended for investors meeting certain investment minimum thresholds) are not subject to either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC.
Voyageur Asset Management Inc. (“Voyageur”or the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for Tamarack. The officers of Tamarack (“Fund Management”) are also employees of Voyageur or its affiliates and PNC Global Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“PNC”).
The Fund’s investment objective is to invest in geographically specific debt securities located in portions of the United States designated by Fund investors. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in debt securities specifically designed to support underlying economic activities such as affordable housing, education, small business lending, and job-creating activities in areas of the United States designated by Fund investors.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Security Valuation:
Summarized below are the significant accounting policies of the Fund. The 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. The financial statements are as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
Bonds and other fixed income securities are generally valued on the basis of prices furnished by pricing services approved by Tamarack’s Board. The pricing services utilize both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques that take into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity and type of issue. Valuations of mortgage backed securities that qualify under the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) may also include adjustments to reflect the CRA premium indicated by the independent pricing agent to reflect the higher valuations accorded these securities in the market for their geographically or other targeted nature. Short-term debt obligations, with less than 60 days to maturity at time of purchase, are valued at amortized cost unless Fund Management determines that amortized cost no longer approximates market value. In such cases where a security price is unavailable, or where Fund Management determines that the value provided by the pricing services or amortized cost does not approximate fair value, the Board has approved pricing and valuation procedures to determine a security’s fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. Exchange traded financial futures are valued at the settlement price as established by the exchange on which they are traded.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Financial Instruments:
Reverse Repurchase Agreements — To obtain short-term financing, the Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreements with primary dealers that report to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or the 100 largest U.S. commercial banks, who are deemed creditworthy under guidelines approved by the Board. Interest on the value of the reverse repurchase agreements is based upon competitive market rates at the time of issuance. At the time the Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it will establish and maintain a segregated account with the custodian containing qualifying assets having a value not less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest. Based on requirements with certain exchanges and third party brokers-dealers, the Fund may also be required to deliver or deposit securities or cash as collateral. If the counterparty to the transaction is rendered insolvent, the ultimate realization of the securities to be repurchased by the Fund may be delayed or limited. For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the average amount borrowed was approximately $146,614,301 and the daily weighted average interest rate was 1.96%.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Derivatives — The Fund may use derivative instruments, including futures, forwards, options, indexed securities, swaps and inverse securities for hedging purposes only. During the six month period ended March 31, 2009, the Fund entered into only futures contracts as described below. Derivatives allow the Fund to increase or decrease its risk exposure more quickly and efficiently than other types of instruments. While hedging can reduce losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains if the market moves in a different manner than anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge. Hedging also involves the risk that changes in the value of the derivative will not match those of the holdings being hedged as expected by the Fund, in which case any losses on the holdings being hedged may not be reduced and may be increased. Losses may also arise due to changes in the value of the contract or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s hedging strategy will reduce risk or that hedging transactions will be available or cost effective.
Financial Futures Contracts — The Fund may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on such futures contracts. Futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Fund deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The Fund had the following open futures contracts at March 31, 2009:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Number of Contracts | | Expiration Date | | Unrealized Depreciation | | Notional Value | | Counterparty |
Short contracts: | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Ten Year Swap | | 500 | | June, 2009 | | $ | (1,843,750) | | $ | 61,375,000 | | Barclays Capital |
Ten Year Swap | | 145 | | June, 2009 | | $ | (512,031) | | $ | 17,821,406 | | Barclays Capital |
U.S. Treasury Long Bond | | 250 | | June, 2009 | | $ | (1,152,343) | | $ | 31,273,438 | | Barclays Capital |
TBA Commitments — The Fund may enter into to be announced (“TBA”) commitments to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date. TBA commitments are considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased/sold declines/increases prior to settlement date, which is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of a Fund’s other assets. Unsettled TBA commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described under “Valuation of Securities”.
Mortgage Backed Securities — Because the Fund will focus on community development investments, such as securities backed by commercial and/or residential mortgage loans, it will be affected by risks not typically associated with funds that do not specialize in community development investments. These risks include credit and prepayment risk due to default on underlying loans within a security. Changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults or assets underlying these securities, can affect the value, income and/or liquidity of such positions.
In addition, the Fund invests in certain mortgage backed securities that qualify under the CRA in which it may pay a premium for the geographically or other targeted nature of the securities. There can be no guarantee, however, that a similar premium will be received if the security is sold by the Fund.
Credit Enhancement — Certain obligations held in the Fund 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 and MBIA).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Recent Accounting Standard:
In March 2008, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”) and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosure that enables investors to understand how and why an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position. Management is currently evaluating the implications of SFAS 161. The impact on the Funds’ financial statement disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”) —
SFAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:
• Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
• Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
• Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The summary of inputs used to determine the fair valuation of the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2009 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Funds | | | | Level 1 Quoted Prices | | | | Level 2 Significant Observable Inputs | | | | Level 3 Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | | Total | |

* Other financial instruments are instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments, such as futures contracts which are valued at the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on the investment.
Investment Transactions and Income:
Investment transactions are recorded one business day after trade date, except for on the last day of each fiscal quarter end, when they are recorded on 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 and accretion of premium or discount using the effective yield method. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage and asset-backed securities are included in the financial statements as interest income.
Distributions to Shareholders:
The Fund pays out any income that it receives, less expenses, in the form of dividends and capital gains 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 gain distributions 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., reclassification of paydown gains and losses, and expiring capital loss carryforward), they are reclassified within a Fund’s capital account based on their federal tax basis treatment. Such differences are not reflected in the calculation of the Financial Highlights.

3. Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Voyageur serves as investment advisor to the Fund. The Advisor has agreed to waive or limit fees through January 31, 2010, to maintain expenses, (excluding interest expense, management fees and distribution fees) at 0.20% of the Fund’s average monthly gross assets less liabilities, other than indebtness for borrowing. 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 the Advisor, any expenses in excess of the expense limitation and repay the Advisor such amounts, provided the Fund is able to effect such repayment and remain in compliance with the expense limitation disclosed in the effective prospectus. During the six month period ended March 31, 2009, no reimbursements were made to the Advisor.
Under the terms of the Fund’s management agreement, the Advisor receives from the Fund an annual management fee, paid monthly, of 50 basis points (0.50%) of the Fund’s average daily total assets less liabilities, other than indebtedness for borrowing. For purposes of calculating the management fee, assets purchased with borrowed monies are included in the total that is subject to the management fee. As a result, the Advisor has an incentive to use leverage so as to increase the amount of assets upon which it may charge a fee. As of March 31, 2009, the impact of leverage raised the management fee to approximately 64 basis points (0.64%) of the Funds average net assets.
Independent Trustees (Trustees of Tamarack who are not directors, officers or employees of the adviser, administrator or distributor) receive from the entire Tamarack fund family an annual retainer of $20,000. The Board Chairperson and Audit Committee Chairperson each receive an additional retainer of $2,500 annually, and all other trustees serving as Chair of a Board committee each receive an additional retainer of $1,000 annually. In addition, Independent Trustees receive a quarterly meeting fee of $5,000 for each in-person Board meeting attended, a meeting fee of $1,000 for each telephonic or Special Board meeting attended, and a $1,000 fee for each Board committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses relating to attendance at such meetings.
Expense, Investment Income and Gain/Loss Allocation:
The Fund pays the expenses that are directly related to its operations, such as custodian fees or adviser fees. Expenses incurred by Tamarack, such as trustee or legal fees, are allocated to the Fund either proportionately based upon the Fund’s relative net assets or using another reasonable basis such as equally across all funds in Tamarack Trust, depending on the nature of the expense. Individual share classes within the Fund are charged expenses specific to that class, such as distribution fees. Within the Fund, expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class based upon the proportion of relative net assets. Investment income and realized and unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class of shares based upon the proportion of relative net assets.
4. Fund Distribution:
The Fund has adopted a Master Distribution 12b-1 Plan (the “Plan”) in which Tamarack Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s distributor. The Distributor is an affiliate of Voyageur. The Plan permits the Fund to make payments for, or to reimburse the Distributor monthly for, distribution-related costs and expenses of marketing shares of each share class covered under the Plan, and/or for providing shareholder services. The following chart shows the current Plan fee rate for each class.
| | |
| | Class A |
12b-1 Plan Fee | | 0.25%* |
* The maximum Plan fee rate for Class A shares is 0.50%. The Distributor is currently waiving 0.25% of the 0.50% Plan fee for Class A.
27
|
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Plan fees are based on average daily net assets of the applicable class. The Distributor, subject to applicable legal requirements, may waive a Plan fee voluntarily, in whole or in part. For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the Distributor waived $122 of Plan fees.
For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the Distributor received no commissions from front-end sales charges of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor received no CDSC fees from the Funds during the same six month period.
5. Securities Transactions:
The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding securities maturing less than one year from acquisition) for the six month period ended March 31, 2009 were as follows:
| | | |
Purchases | | Sales |
$ 41,871,448 | | $ | 37,818,960 |
6. Capital Share Transactions:

7. Federal Income Taxes:
It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available 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 the Fund.

The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Fund is not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2005 and by state authorities for tax years before 2004.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) |
Information for Tamarack Funds Shareholders Regarding Advisory Agreements
The Tamarack Board of Trustees has renewed the Investment Advisory Agreement with Voyageur Asset Management Inc. (“Voyageur” or the “Advisor”) for the Fund. After evaluating the services provided by the Advisor and reviewing the performance and relevant expenses of the Fund, the Trustees concluded that it was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders to continue the investment advisory agreement (“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 Fund. The Trustees reviewed the quality of the services provided to the Fund by Voyageur, including information prepared by a third-party consultant as to the 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 relationship with the Fund. 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.
The Trustees observed that the Fund was ranked in the top quintile for its peer group for the one and three year periods, and in the top quintile of its peer universe for the one year period. The Board also noted that the Fund’s expense comparison was in the fifth quintile for both its peer group and peer universe. In considering the quality of services be provided by Voyageur, the Trustees discussed the strong research, credit and fundamental analysis capabilities, the specialized expertise in the area of fixed income investments eligible for regulatory credit under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 and the extensive portfolio management experience of Voyageur staff, as well as Voyageur’s operational and compliance structure and systems and Voyageur’s financial strength. 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 fee proposed to be payable to Voyageur was reasonable and fair in light of the nature and quality of services provided under all of the circumstances, and was within the range of what might have been negotiated at arms’ length. The Trustees concluded that it is in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders for the Trustees to approve the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund. 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 Access Capital Community Investment Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund 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, 2008 through March 31, 2009.
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 10/1/2008 | | Ending Account Value 3/31/09 | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/08-3/31/09 | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/08-3/31/09 |
Class A | | $ 1,000.00 | | $1,017.54 | | $2.04 | | 1.19% |
Class I | | $ 1,000.00 | | $1,046.10 | | $6.53 | | 1.28% |
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 10/1/2008 | | Ending Account Value 3/31/2009 | | Expenses Paid During Period* 10/1/08-3/31/09 | | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 10/1/08-3/31/09 |
Class A | | $ 1,000.00 | | $1,006.47 | | $2.03 | | 1.19% |
Class I | | $ 1,000.00 | | $1,018.55 | | $6.44 | | 1.28% |
* Expenses are equal to the average account value times the Fund’s annualized expense ratio multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year divided by the number of days in the fiscal year (to reflect one half-year period).
