Letter from the Investment Adviser
Dear Investor:
We are pleased to present this report for the six-month period ended September 30, 2008. The period marked the definitive entrance of a bear market, as the housing market that had concerned us previously created a far larger problem than we had envisioned. For the period as a whole, the Dow Jones Industrial Average of blue-chip stocks fell 11.52%, while the S&P 500 Index lost 10.85% and the Small-Cap Russell 2000® declined 0.54%. Bond investors meanwhile fled lower-quality securities in favor of the highest-quality issues. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (formerly Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Bond Index) posted a -1.50% return for the period.
The credit crisis resulting from the subprime mortgage meltdown created a global financial panic. Early in the period securities underwriter Bear Stearns was sold at fire-sale prices to JPMorgan in a deal that was facilitated by the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”). The Fed went on to take actions that are unprecedented in recent history, including infusing large amounts of money into the banking system, extending emergency cash to Wall Street, seizing mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and taking control of Washington Mutual, which collapsed under the weight of its enormous bets on the mortgage market. During the period, 158-year-old investment bank Lehman Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Bank of America acquired Merrill Lynch and the federal government loaned $85 billion to troubled insurance firm AIG. The resulting illiquidity and lack of trust in the global financial systems created stress in virtually all fixed-income and equity markets around the globe.
These events weighed on an economy that already was struggling under the downturn in the housing market, rising inflation and higher unemployment. It has become clear that the global bull market has become a global bear market—and a relatively severe bear market at that. As the period wore on, it became increasingly apparent that the United States was headed for a consumer recession, the likes of which had not been seen since the 1980 to 1982 period.
Global stocks decline
Equities’ performance was bleak across the board during the six-month period. The deteriorating financial environment and the strong prospects for a recession left virtually no sector unscathed. Consumer staples, and high-quality companies in general, rode out the period most successfully.
International markets were unable to provide a safe harbor under these turbulent conditions, and suffered one of their worst periods in five years. U.S. consumption has been the engine of growth for many international exporters. When American consumer spending slowed, international firms’ performance suffered. U.S.-based investors’ performance in foreign markets also suffered due to the dollar’s rally toward the end of the period.
Fixed-income investors favor quality
The unprecedented government activities to stabilize the financial system during the period roiled the fixed-income markets. Treasury securities led the bond markets by a wide margin, as investors fled to the safety of the highest-quality issues available. Short-term Treasuries fared especially well, due to investors’ pursuit of liquidity. The yield curve steepened considerably as a result.
The flight to quality, and away from any security not guaranteed by the U.S. government, caused prices on corporate bonds to fall. Bonds with lower credit ratings generally saw their prices fall farthest, pushing up their yields dramatically.
Looking forward
This period has been a trying one for investors. It is worth remembering, however, that markets historically have been cyclical. Equity markets in particular vacillate due to investor sentiment: from greed during bull markets to fear during bear markets. Current circumstances suggest investors have reached the fear stage, which typically has indicated the bottom of the market.
Our opinion at this time is that conditions will remain unsettled for some period. Global growth expectations have slowed, and the outlook for corporate profits has been deteriorating. These factors make it difficult to understand stock market valuations with any degree of precision. Share prices have continued to be very low, but the extent to which a recession will depress earnings remains to be seen.
Americans today have little practice in enduring financial panics—but it is always prudent to remain calm in stressful circumstances. We continue to believe that the United States boasts the world’s most flexible economy, and that it will work through these problems in time.

Letter from the Investment Adviser, continued
Indeed, this crisis already has produced some positive results. High prices for commodities and energy had cramped consumer discretionary spending and sparked inflation fears. As energy prices have decreased and world growth expectations have slowed, inflation expectations are diminishing. As a result, we believe interest rates are likely to remain low for some time—and low interest rates have generally created a positive environment for growth in equity markets.
What’s more, recessions often prompt consumers, corporations and governments to reorient their priorities: Savings and increased caution about appropriate levels of risk become more important, thus setting the stage for the next growth cycle.
Changes at the Monogram Funds
1st Source and Wasatch Advisors have entered into a strategic partnership whereby Wasatch will acquire the three Monogram Funds. All three funds will continue to be managed by the current portfolio managers. In fact, you may be receiving proxy material as this letter arrives; it is worth noting that the Monogram Fund board voted for the approval of this transaction.
Ralph Shive and Mike Shinnick will be joining Wasatch as employees, and will be opening an office in South Bend. Wasatch will be hiring 1st Source with Paul Gifford as subadvisor for the Income Fund.
Our expectation is that there will be no change to either the investment objectives or investment management process. We expect the deal to be closed by December.
Thank you for your confidence in the Monogram Funds. We look forward to providing you with investment management services in the years to come. Please do not hesitate to contact your account representative or to call the Monogram Funds directly at 1-800-766-8939 if you have any questions or require assistance.

Income Equity Fund

Investment Concerns
Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments inhigh-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
Q. | | How did the Income Equity Fund perform during the six-month period ended September 30, 2008? |
|
A. | | The Fund returned -9.65%. That compared to a -11.10% return for Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000® Value Index and a -11.30% return for the Lipper Equity Income Funds Index1. |
|
Q. | | What factors affected the Fund’s performance? |
|
A. | | The current financial panic is one of the worst we have seen in the last 30 years, with the broad set of problems facing the economy recalling those of the 1973-1974 recession. Equities’ returns were significantly affected by the unwinding of low-quality debt during the period, leading to the Fund’s negative absolute return. |
|
| | As it has in previous recent periods, the Fund’s cash position boosted returns relative to the benchmark index2. |
|
| | The Fund’s underweight position in financials boosted performance during the fiscal first quarter of 2008. During the second quarter, however, the implementation of massive government policies to shore up the financial system resulted in outperformance by the sector as a whole. As a result, for the full period the Fund’s underweight position dragged on relative returns2. |
|
| | During the first half of the Fund’s six month reporting period, industrial and energy stocks outperformed. However, as forecasts for global growth unwound, so did success of the energy theme. These stocks, which had experienced a multi-year period of outperformance, came under heavy selling pressure as investors took profits. A somewhat similar situation affected industrials: Export markets remained strong until global recession became a more common forecast, leading those stocks to falter as well. The Fund’s overweight position in these shares reduced relative returns for the period as a whole.2 |

The above expense ratios are from the Fund’s prospectus dated August 1, 2008. Additional information pertaining to the Fund’s expense ratios as of September 30, 2008 can be found in the financial highlights. Investment performance reflects voluntary fee waivers which may be discontinued at any time. Without these fee waivers, the performance would have been lower. Excluding the indirect costs of investing in Acquired Funds, Total Fund Operating Expenses after the Distributor’s fee waiver would be 1.38% and 1.13%.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher. Total return figures include change in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed may be worth more or less than the original cost. For performance data current to the most recent month end, please contact us at 1-800-766-8938.

* Aggregate Total Return. |
The Fund’s performance is measured against the Russell 1000® Value Index, an unmanaged index that measures the performance of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 1000 companies with lower growth price-to-book ratios and lower expected values. This index does not reflect the deduction of fees or taxes associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting fees. The performance of the Fund reflects the deduction of fees for these services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Growth of a $10,000 Investment
Past performance is not predictive of future results. The investment return and net asset value per share will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemptions of fund shares.
The chart represents a hypothetical investment of $10,000 in the 1st Source Monogram Income Equity Fund from 09/98 to 09/08, and represents the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains in the Fund. The Fund changed its fiscal year end from 03/31 to 09/30. Accordingly, the beginning point was changed to 09/98 for purposes of this chart.
The Fund’s performance is measured against the Russell 1000® Value Index, an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of 1,000 securities found in the Russell universe with a less-than-average growth orientation. Securities in this index generally have lower price-to-book and price-to-earnings ratios, higher dividend yields and lower forecasted growth values than the Growth Universe. This index is unmanaged and does not reflect the deduction of fees or taxes associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting fees. The performance of the Fund reflects the deduction of fees for these services.

Investment Concerns
Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return. The mortgage market in the U.S. recently experienced difficulties that may adversely affect the performance and market value of certain mortgage-related investments.
Q. | | How did the Income Fund perform relative to its benchmark for the period ended September 30, 2008? |
A. | | The Fund returned -1.69%. That compared to a -2.70% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays Intermediate U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index (formerly Lehman Brothers Intermediate U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index). |
Q. | | What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance? |
A. | | Fallout from the expanding credit crisis created negative returns for the bond market as a whole. In particular, corporate bonds and mortgage-related bonds performed poorly, contributing to a negative absolute return for the Fund. |
The Fund’s underweight position in credit securities boosted performance relative to the benchmark index, as did the Fund’s emphasis on quality in the credit securities it did hold. Our security selection helped boost relative returns, as we had no exposure to two of the major firms devastated by the credit crisis.1
The Fund held a shorter duration than that of the benchmark. That positioning reflects a strategic decision by which the Fund holds less exposure to interest rate risk than the index. Holding a short duration benefited returns during much of the period, as interest rates across the Treasury yield curve rose.

The above expense ratios are from the Fund’s prospectus dated August 1, 2008. Additional information pertaining to the Fund’s expense ratios as of September 30, 2008 can be found in the financial highlights. Investment performance reflects voluntary fee waivers which may be discontinued at any time. Without these fee waivers, the performance would have been lower. Excluding the indirect costs of investing in Acquired Funds, Total Fund Operating Expenses after the Distributor’s fee waiver would be 1.20% and 0.95%.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher. Total return figures include change in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed may be worth more or less than the original cost.

Long/Short Fund
Michael Shinnick
Investment Concerns
Investment in shares of the Fund are more volatile and risky than some other forms of investment. Since the Fund has both a long and a short portfolio, investments will involve risks associated with twice the number of investment decisions made for a typical stock fund. These types of funds typically have a high portfolio turnover that could increase transaction costs and causeshort-term capital gains to be realized. While it may be the intent of the manager to take long positions in stocks that outperform the market and short positions in stocks that underperform the market, there is no assurance that the manager will be successful.
Since the risk in this Fund relates specifically to the manager’s stock selection techniques and not to any systematic or economic factors, the proper benchmark is an asset that also has the least exposure to systematic influences. U.S. 90-day T-bills are such an asset. An investment in a 90-day T-bill is different from an investment in the Long/Short Fund because T-bills are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. T-bills have a fixed rate of return, and investors do not bear the risk of losing their investment. The income received from T-bills is free from state income tax.
Q. | | How did the Fund perform relative to its benchmark for the period ended September 30, 2008? |
A. | | The Monogram Long/Short Fund returned -3.66%. This Fund’s objective is to produce a positive risk-adjusted return in all market conditions. We attempt to generate an annualized gain that is greater than the return of the Fund’s benchmark, Citigroup U.S. Domestic Three-Month Treasury Bill Index, which during this period was 0.83%. |
Q. | | What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance? |
A. | | The Fund generated positive absolute returns on a year-to-date basis through early September. But stocks of most companies, across all sectors, experienced losses during September, at which point the Fund’s net-long position pushed absolute returns into negative territory. |
|
| | The shifting regulatory environment for short-selling hurt the Fund’s returns relative to its benchmark. The federal government responded to the financial crisis by implementing a ban on short-selling more than 900 securities. We reacted to this development by initiating certain new positions, closing other positions and making position sizing adjustments. These reactive adjustments generally weighed on relative performance.1 |
|
| | The Fund’s long position in energy-related equities likewise dragged on relative performance. Energy shares gained through much of the period under review, but declined sharply in August and September.1 |
|
| | In general, the Fund’s stock selection boosted relative performance. Shares of a large retailer produced gains, and otherhigh-quality stocks owned by the Fund outperformed the overall market as well. The Fund’s short positions also improved relative performance, benefiting from losses in select financial, retail and technology shares.1 |

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2008
1. Organization:
The Coventry Group (the “Group”) was organized on January 8, 1992 as a Massachusetts business trust, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Group contains the following 1st Source Monogram Funds (individually, a “Fund”, collectively, the “Funds”):
| | |
Fund Legal Name | | Short Name |
1st Source Monogram Income Equity Fund | | Income Equity Fund |
1st Source Monogram Income Fund | | Income Fund |
1st Source Monogram Long/Short Fund | | Long/Short Fund |
Financial statements for all other series of the Group are published separately.
The primary investment objective of the Income Equity Fund is to seek capital appreciation with current income as a secondary objective. The investment objective of the Income Fund is to seek current income consistent with the preservation of capital and the investment objective of the Long/Short Fund is to seek capital appreciation.
Under the Group’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Group. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Group may enter into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.
Effective September 19, 2008, the Funds changed their fiscal year end to September 30.
2. Reorganization:
Income Equity Fund — The Trust entered into an agreement and plan of reorganization on behalf of the 1st Source Monogram Diversified Equity Fund and the Income Equity Fund, that provides for the acquisition by the Income Equity Fund of all of the assets, subject to stated liabilities, of the Diversified Equity Fund, in exchange for shares of the Income Equity Fund, the distribution of such shares to the shareholders of the Diversified Equity Fund and the dissolution of the Diversified Equity Fund. The reorganization, which qualified as a tax-free exchange for Federal income tax purposes, was approved by the Board of Trustees on January 16, 2007 and completed on March 30, 2007. The following is a summary of shares outstanding, net assets value per share issued immediately before and after the reorganization:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Before Reorganization | | After Reorganization |
| | Diversified | | Income Equity | | Income Equity |

Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 2,016,254 | | | $ | 33,960,326 | | | $ | 35,976,580 | |
3. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Securities Valuation:
The value of each equity security is based either on the last sale price on a national securities exchange, or in the absence of recorded sales, at the closing bid prices on such exchanges, or at the quoted bid price in the over-the-counter market. Equity securities traded on the NASDAQ stock market are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price.
Bonds and other fixed income securities (other than short-term obligations, but including listed issues) are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, the use of which has been approved by the Group’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). In making such valuations, the pricing service utilizes both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques which 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 or exchanges or over-the-counter prices, since such valuations are believed to reflect more accurately the fair value of such securities. All debt portfolio securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Under the amortized cost method, discount or premium, if any, is accreted or amortized, respectively.
Shares of investment companies are valued at net asset value per share.
The Group may use a pricing service to value certain portfolio securities where the prices provided are believed to reflect the fair market value of such securities. If market prices are not available or, in the Adviser’s opinion, market prices do not reflect fair value, or if an event occurs after the close of trading on the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (but prior to the time the NAV is calculated) that materially affects fair value, the Adviser will value the Fund’s assets at their fair value according to policies approved by the Board.
Securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available (e.g., an approved pricing service does not provide a price, a furnished price is in error, certain stale prices, or an event occurs that materially affects the furnished price) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Board.
Fair Value Measurements:
Effective April 1, 2008, the Funds adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value based on inputs used to value the funds’ investments, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards.
One key component of the implementation of SFAS 157 includes the development of a three-tier fair value hierarchy. The basis of the tiers is dependent upon the various “inputs” used to determine the value of the Funds’ investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
• Level 2 — other significant inputs (including quoted prices of similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc).
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including Fund management’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the 1940 Act. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the valuation is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.
The following is a summary categorization of each Fund’s investments based on the level of inputs utilized in determining the value of such investments as of September 30, 2008:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | LEVEL 2 - Other Significant | | LEVEL 3 - Significant | | |
| | LEVEL 1 - Quoted Prices | | Observable Inputs | | Unobservable Inputs | | Total |
| | | | | | | | Securities Sold, | | | | | | Other | | | | | | Other | | | | |

Income Fund | | | 1,772,645 | | | — | | | — | | | | 85,892,367 | | | — | | | 1,617,000 | | | — | | | 89,282,012 | | | — |
Long/Short Fund | | | 95,515,691 | | | — | | | (29,044,294 | ) | | | 30,159,319 | | | — | | | | | | — | | | 96,630,716 | | | — |
| | |
* | | Other financial instruments are derivative investments not reflected in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments, such as futures, forwards, and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of the investment. |
For each level 3 security, some or all of the following inputs were used to determine fair value; market conditions, credit quality and spreads, liquidity, expected maturity or call date, and security type.

| | | |
Repurchase Agreements:
The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with banks or broker-dealers which 1st Source Corporation Investment Advisers, Inc., (the “Adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of 1st Source Bank, deems creditworthy. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by a Fund plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates, which may be more or less than the rate on the underlying portfolio securities. The seller, under a repurchase agreement, is required to maintain the collateral held pursuant to the agreement, with a market value equal to or greater than the repurchase price (including accrued interest). Collateral subject to repurchase agreements is held by the Funds’ custodian or another qualified custodian or in the Federal Reserve/Treasury book-entry system. If the counterparty defaults and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
Written Options:
The Funds may write covered call or secured put options for which premiums received are recorded as liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current value of the options written. Premiums received from writing options that expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options, which are either exercised or closed, are offset against the proceeds received or amount paid on the transaction to determine realized gains or losses. The Funds did not have any option activity for the six months ended September 30, 2008.
Security Transactions and Related Income:
Changes in holdings of portfolio securities shall be reflected no later than in the first calculation on the first business day following the trade date. However, for financial reporting purposes, portfolio security transactions are reported on the trade date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization of premium or discount. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
New Accounting Pronouncements:
In March 2008, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about a fund’s derivative and hedging activities, including how such activities are accounted for and their effect on the Funds’ financial position, performance and cash flows. Management has recently begun evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 161 will have on the Funds’ financial statements and related disclosures.
Short Sales Transactions:
The Long/Short Fund may engage in short sales (selling securities it does not own) as part of its normal investment activities, with the exception of the temporary Securities Exchange Commission restrictions on short sales of certain securities. These short sales are collateralized by cash deposits and securities with the applicable counterparty broker. The collateral required is determined daily by reference to the market value of the short positions. Such collateral for the Fund is held by one broker. Dividend expense of short sales is treated as an expense on the Statement of Operations. Liabilities for securities sold short are reported at market value in the financial statements. Such liabilities are subject to off-balance sheet risk to the extent of any future increases in market value of the securities sold short. The ultimate liability for securities sold short could exceed the liabilities recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Liabilities for securities sold short are relieved by purchasing the applicable securities for delivery to the counterparty broker.

Expenses:
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to the Fund. Expenses relating to the Group are allocated proportionately to each Fund within the Group according to the relative net assets of each Fund or on another reasonable basis.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material.
Dividends to Shareholders:
Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed monthly by the Funds. Dividends from net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually by the Funds.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions from net realized gains, if any, are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These ‘’book/tax’’ differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital.
Federal Income Taxes:
Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions from net investment income and from net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income and excise taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
Effective September 30, 2007, the Funds adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the affirmative evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not (i.e., greater than 50-percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements will generally result in an increase in a liability for taxes payable (or a reduction of a tax refund receivable), including the recognition of any related interest and penalties as an operating expense. Implementation of FIN 48 included a review of tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last 4 tax year ends and the interim tax period since then, as applicable). The adoption of FIN 48 did not impact the Funds’ net assets or result of operations.
As of and during the period ended September 30, 2008, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits or incur any interest and penalties.
4. Related Party Transactions:
Investment Adviser:
The Funds and the Adviser are parties to an Investment Advisory Agreement under which the Adviser is entitled to receive an annual fee, computed daily and paid monthly, equal to the average daily net assets of each Fund, at the following annual percentage rates:
| | | | |
Fund | | Fee Rate |
Income Equity Fund | | | 0.80 | % |
Income Fund | | | 0.55 | % |
Long/Short Fund | | | 1.10 | % |

Administration:
Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc. (“Citi”), serves the Funds as administrator, fund accounting and transfer agent. Citi, as the Funds’ administrator, provides services for a fee that is computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Citi provides fund accounting and transfer agency services to the Funds pursuant to certain fee arrangements. As transfer agent for the Funds, Citi receives a fee based on the number of shareholder accounts, subject to certain minimums and reimbursement of certain expenses. As fund accountant for the Funds, Citi receives an annual fee computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.03% of the average daily net assets of each Fund, subject to certain minimums and reimbursement of certain expenses. Certain officers of the Group are affiliated with Citi. Such persons were paid no fees directly by the Fund for serving as officers of the Group, except the Chief Compliance Officer (the “CCO”).
Under a Compliance Services Agreement between the Funds and Citi (the “CCO Agreement”), Citi makes an employee available to serve as the Funds’ CCO. Under the CCO Agreement, Citi also provides infrastructure and support in implementing the written policies and procedures comprising the Funds’ compliance program, including support services to the CCO. For the services provided under the CCO Agreement, the Funds paid Citi $13,663 for the six months ended September 30, 2008, and $26,962 for the year ended March 31, 2008, plus certain out of pocket expenses. Citi pays the salary and other compensation earned by any such individuals as employees of Citi.
Effective July 1, 2005, the Funds entered into a Shareholder Servicing agreement with 1st Source Bank to provide shareholder services. The fees paid with respect to each applicable Fund are computed and paid monthly at an annual rate not to exceed $18.00 per account.
Distribution:
Foreside Distribution Services, L.P., (“Foreside”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Foreside Financial Group, Inc., serves as the Funds’ distribution agent. Foreside is not affiliated with Citi or the Adviser.
The Group has adopted a Distribution and Shareholder Service Plan in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, pursuant to which each Fund is authorized to pay or reimburse the distributor a periodic amount, calculated at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of each Fund. These fees may be used by the distributor to pay banks, including affiliates of the Adviser, broker-dealers and other institutions, or to reimburse the distributor or its affiliates, for distribution and shareholder services in connection with the distribution of Fund shares. For the six months ended September 30, 2008 and the year ended March 31, 2008, distribution fees were voluntarily waived to limit total fund operating expenses. Any voluntary fee waivers are not subject to recoupment in subsequent fiscal periods.
5. Purchases and Sales of Securities:
Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities, securities sold short, and U.S. government securities for the six months ended September 30, 2008, totaled:
| | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Purchases | | Sales |
Income Equity Fund | | $ | 376,425,189 | | | $ | 27,605,456 | |
Income Fund | | | 25,227,592 | | | | 12,312,887 | |
Long/Short Fund | | | 93,817,147 | | | | 61,530,553 | |
6. Restricted Securities:
Restricted securities are restricted as to resale and have been “fair” valued in good faith by the Adviser pursuant to the Funds’ valuation procedures. The appropriate economic, financial and other pertinent information available are taken into consideration, but because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these securities existed. These differences could be material. At September 30, 2008, there were no investments in restricted securities.

| | |
1 | | Total distributions paid may differ from the amount reported in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets because for tax purposes distributions are recognized when actually paid. |
|
2 | | The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to: tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains/losses on certain derivative instruments, the difference between book and tax amortization methods for premium and market discount, the return of capital adjustments from real estate investment trusts, publicly traded partnerships, and royalty trusts. |
As of September 30, 2008, the following reclassifications have been made to increase (decrease) the following accounts with offsetting adjustments to capital:

8. Control Ownership:
The benefical ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a Fund creates presumption of control of the Fund, under section 2 (a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of September 30, 2008, National Financial Services LLC held approximately 75% of the voting securities in the Long/Short Fund, 54% of the Income Equity Fund and 94% of Income Fund. Charles Schwab and Co. Inc. owned approximately 39% of the voting securities in the Income Equity Fund.
9. Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm:
At a meeting held on May 14, 2008, the Coventry Group Audit Committee (consisting of Independent Trustees) selected and approved Cohen Fund Audit Services, Ltd. as the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Funds, replacing Ernst & Young LLP.
10. Subsequent Events:
1st Source Corporation Investment Advisors, Inc. (the “Adviser”) has signed an asset purchase agreement with Wasatch Advisors, Inc. (“Wasatch”) relating to a proposed acquisition by Wasatch of the assets related to the Adviser’s mutual fund advisory business. In connection with such acquisition, it is proposed that each of the 1st Source Monogram Funds reorganize into a new Wasatch fund. Each such reorganization of a 1st Source Monogram Fund is subject to the approval of the shareholders of such fund at a Special Meeting of the Shareholders on December 11, 2008, and a proxy statement/prospectus seeking such approval was distributed to shareholders on October 24, 2008. The Board of Trustees of the Trust unanimously approved the Agreement and Pending Reorganization at a meeting on August 13, 2008. If the proposal is approved by shareholders, upon completion of the Reorganization, each 1st Source Monogram Fund will transfer all of its assets to its corresponding Wasatch Fund in exchange for shares of the corresponding Wasatch Fund and the corresponding Wasatch Fund’s assumption of the 1st Source Fund’s liabilities.
Due to current market credit and liquidity issues, many investors have not been able to sell Auction Rate Securities (“ARSs”). On November 5, 2008, the 1st Source Monogram Income Fund entered into an agreement with UBS Financial Services, Inc. (“UBS”) whereby the Fund has the option to sell back to UBS its ARSs at par value including accrued interest during the period June 30, 2010 through July 2, 2012. In addition, by entering into the agreement, the Fund has given consent to UBS to purchase the ARS securities at any time from the date of the agreement through July 2, 2012. This Auction Rate Security Rights offering by UBS protects shareholders of the Fund from realizing potential losses on the ARSs. At September 30, 2008, these securities (representing $1.650 million par value, $1.617 million fair value, and 1.82% of net assets) were fair valued based on current market factors at below par value, and the net unrealized loss of $33,000 is reflected in the net unrealized depreciation from investments on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To The Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
1st Source Monogram Funds
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of 1st Source Monogram Funds, comprising the 1st Source Monogram Income Equity Fund, 1st Source Monogram Income Fund, and 1st Source Monogram Long/Short Fund (the “Funds”) as of September 30, 2008, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the six months then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit. The financial statements and the financial highlights for the periods indicated prior to September 30, 2008 were audited by other auditors, who expressed unqualified opinions on those financial statements and financial highlights.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2008 by correspondence with the custodians and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting 1st Source Monogram Funds as of September 30, 2008, and the results of their operations, changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the six months then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Table of Shareholder Expenses:
As a shareholder of the 1st Source Monogram Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution; and12b-1 fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the 1st Source Monogram 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 April 1, 20008 through September 30, 2008.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
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). 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 | | Ending | | Expense Paid | | Expense Ratio |
| | Value | | Account Value | | During Period* | | During Period |
| | 4/1/08 | | 9/30/08 | | 4/1/08 - 9/30/08 | | 4/1/08 - 9/30/08 |
|
Income Equity Fund | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 903.50 | | | $ | 4.96 | | | | 1.04 | % |
Income Fund | | | 1,000.00 | | | | 983.10 | | | | 4.33 | | | | 0.87 | % |
Long/Short Fund | | | 1,000.00 | | | | 963.40 | | | | 8.71 | | | | 1.77 | % |
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s 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). 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.

Long/Short Fund | | | 1,000.00 | | | | 1,017.75 | | | | 8.95 | | | | 1.77 | % |
