TABLE OF CONTENTS

Table of Contents

SUMMARY SECTION

Investment Objectives

The Torray Fund’s (the “Fund”) investment objectives are to build investor wealth over extended periods and to minimize shareholder capital gains tax liability by limiting the realization of long and short-term gains.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.

Example

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 16.55% of the average value of its portfolio.

Table of Contents

Principal Investment Strategy

The Fund’s strategy is to invest in high quality companies that have a record of increasing sales and earnings, and to hold them as long as their fundamentals remain intact. Capable management and sound finances are critical considerations in the selection process.

Ordinarily, 90% or more of the Fund’s assets will be invested in common stocks, preferred stocks, and securities convertible into common stocks with the balance held in fixed-income securities, U.S. Treasury securities or other cash equivalents. The Fund usually holds between 25 and 40 stocks. Positions in individual issuers will generally not exceed 8% of assets and positions in industry groupings will generally not exceed 25% of assets. Investments are made when it is believed that a company’s long-term outlook is sound and the shares are fairly priced.

Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund

General Risk. All investments are subject to inherent risks, and an investment in the Fund is no exception. Accordingly, you may lose money by investing in the Fund and investors face the risk that Torray LLC’s (the “Manager’s”) business analyses prove faulty.

Market Risk. The value of the Fund’s investments will fluctuate as markets fluctuate and could decline over short- or long-term periods.

Focused Portfolio Risk. The Fund attempts to invest in a limited number of securities. Accordingly, the Fund may have more volatility and is considered to have more risk than a fund that invests in a greater number of securities because changes in the value of a single security may have a more significant effect, either negative or positive, on the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). To the extent the Fund invests its assets in fewer securities, the Fund is subject to greater risk of loss if any of those securities become permanently impaired.

No Guarantee. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Performance Information

Below is a bar chart and performance table that provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart illustrates how the Fund’s annual total returns have varied from year to year. The performance table provides the Fund’s average annual total returns both on a before-tax and an after-tax basis and compares the Fund’s performance against the performance of an unmanaged market index. It is important to remember that the Fund’s past performance (both before and after taxes) does not indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information may be obtained at the Fund’s website torray.com/performance.html.

During the period covered by this bar chart, the Fund’s highest return for a calendar quarter was 16.73% in the second quarter of 2003, and the lowest return for a calendar quarter was (23.30)% in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Average Annual Total Returns

(For the periods ended December 31, 2012)

After-tax returns are calculated using the historically highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on the investor’s tax situation and may differ from those

shown. The after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.

Investment Adviser

The Fund’s investment manager is Torray LLC.

Portfolio Managers

Robert E. Torray is the Founder and Chairman of the Manager and founded the Manager’s predecessor in 1972. Fred M. Fialco, Vice President with the Manager, serves as co-manager of the Fund along with Mr. Torray. Mr. Fialco has been with the Manager since 1997.

Purchasing and Selling Fund Shares

To purchase shares of the Fund for the first time, you must invest $2,500. Additional purchases can be made for $500 or more.

You, your spouse, or your children may open a related account for an initial investment of $2,000 if your current account meets the minimum initial investment amount of $2,500. A related account can be a joint account with your spouse or children or a retirement account such as an IRA.

You may purchase and sell shares on any day that the New York Stock Exchange is open.

You may sell Fund shares through your financial intermediary or by contacting the Fund: (i) by telephone at 1-800-626-9769; or (ii) in writing c/o BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc., P.O. Box 9803, Providence, RI 02940.

For more information about purchasing and redeeming fund shares, see “More Information About Purchasing and Redeeming Shares” on page 8 of this prospectus.

Tax Information

The Fund intends to make distributions that may be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains. Distributions on, and redemptions of, shares held in an IRA (or other tax-qualified plan) will not be currently taxable.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of

4

Table of Contents

interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES AND RISKS

Investment Objectives

As noted earlier, the Fund’s investment objectives are to build investor wealth over extended periods and to minimize shareholder capital gains tax liability by limiting the realization of long and short-term gains. The Fund’s investment objective may be changed without shareholder approval. Shareholders will be provided with prior written notice of any changes to the Fund’s investment objective.

There is no guarantee that these objectives will be achieved.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Manager’s strategy is to invest in high quality companies that have a record of increasing sales and earnings, and to hold them as long as their fundamentals remain intact. Capable management and sound finances are critical considerations in the selection process.

The Manager’s primary focus is on business analysis. No attempt is made to forecast market trends or to time the Fund’s investments based on prevailing opinions about the market’s outlook. Ordinarily, 90% or more of the Fund’s assets will be invested in common stocks, preferred stocks, and securities convertible into common stocks with the balance held in fixed-income securities, U.S. Treasury securities or other cash equivalents. The Fund usually holds between 25 and 40 stocks. Positions in individual issuers will generally not exceed 8% of the Fund’s assets and positions in industry groupings will generally not exceed 25% of the Fund’s assets. When adverse market or economic conditions occur, the Fund may temporarily invest all or a portion of its total assets in defensive instruments, including money market instruments, cash and cash equivalents. When following a defensive strategy, the Fund will be less likely to achieve its investment objectives.

The Manager recognizes that economic value lies in businesses, not stocks. History shows that the shares of companies that generate rising earnings appreciate over time, and it is in these companies the Fund seeks to invest. Quality companies with successful track records that have fallen from investor favor can be of interest if the Manager determines the cause or causes of investor disaffection are temporary and that the share prices fail to reflect the Manager’s assessment of their intrinsic value. However, companies with poor records or those that suffer reversals deemed likely to be permanent are avoided regardless of how “cheap” their shares may appear.

Table of Contents

Investments are made when it is believed that a company’s long-term outlook is sound and the shares are fairly priced.

Investors in search of unrealistically high returns or quick profits, or to whom quarterly performance is important, should not invest in the Fund.

The Fund’s investment strategies may be changed without shareholder approval.

Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund

The Fund’s investors face the risk that the Manager’s business analyses prove faulty. The Fund’s portfolio is more concentrated than that of the typical mutual fund. If the fundamental prospects of a number of large holdings are misjudged, shareholders may suffer losses even during a time when the values of the general market and many other mutual funds are rising. Beyond that possibility, there is always a risk that money may be lost on investments in equity mutual funds, such as the Fund. This is so because stock prices fluctuate—sometimes widely—in response to many factors including, but not limited to, company-specific and industry-wide fundamentals, inflation, interest rates, investor psychology and so on. Investors that sell, whether through need or choice after prices have fallen, obviously will realize less, and depending upon the original cost of their shares, may suffer a loss.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT FUND MANAGEMENT

The Fund’s investment manager is Torray LLC, 7501 Wisconsin Avenue, Suite 750W, Bethesda, Maryland 20814. Robert E. Torray is the Founder and Chairman of the Manager. Mr. Torray was also President of The Torray Corporation, a mutual fund manager that he founded in 1990, and the Chairman of Robert E. Torray & Co. Inc., a manager of large institutional portfolios that he founded May 1, 1972, each such entity having been succeeded to by the Manager. Fred M. Fialco, Vice President with the Manager, serves as co-manager of the Fund along with Mr. Torray and they share equally in the day-to-day management of the Fund’s investment portfolio. Mr. Fialco has been with the Manager since 1997 and he has been involved with all aspects of research and portfolio management. Additional information about the portfolio managers’ compensation, other accounts managed by the portfolio managers, and the portfolio managers’ ownership of securities in the Fund is available in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.

Subject to the oversight of the Board of Trustees of the Fund, the Manager provides investment advice and portfolio management services and oversees the administration of the Fund. The Manager received 1.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets as compensation for these services for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees approving the investment advisory contract of the Fund is available in the Fund’s Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Torray, Chairman of the Manager, and other principals of the Manager, since May 1, 1972, and which have substantially similar investment objectives, policies and strategies as the Fund. These are the only accounts other than the Fund that are managed in this investment strategy by the Manager and its principals.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT PURCHASING AND REDEEMING SHARES

Pricing Fund Shares

Orders to buy or redeem shares that are received in good order prior to the close of the Fund (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) will be processed at the net asset value calculated that day. NAV is calculated by dividing the Fund’s net assets by the number of shares outstanding after the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) closes for the day.

The Fund uses market quotes that are readily available to value its securities. In cases where quotes are not readily available, such as with respect to restricted securities, private placements or other types of illiquid securities, the securities will be valued using fair value guidelines approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

How To Buy Shares

You may buy shares of the Fund on a no-load basis on any day that the NYSE is open.

The minimum initial purchase is $2,500. You should send your check payable to “The Torray Fund” with a completed account application to the Fund’s transfer agent:

Additional purchases can be made for $500 or more and should be sent to the applicable address above. Please remember to include your account number on your check.

You, your spouse, or your children may open a related account for an initial investment of $2,000 if your current account meets the minimum initial investment amount of $2,500. A related account can be a joint account with your spouse or children or a retirement account such as an IRA.

When you open a related account you may be asked to present additional documents as proof of the relationship in addition to an account application. You will also be asked to provide your existing account number and taxpayer identification number. You should use caution when giving these numbers to another person because that person may be able to gain access to your account or other confidential financial information.

You may purchase shares of the Fund through an intermediary, such as an investment representative or a broker-dealer, who may charge additional fees and may

8

Table of Contents

require higher minimum investments or impose other limitations on buying and selling shares. If you purchase shares through an intermediary, that party is responsible for transmitting orders by close of business and may have an earlier cut-off time for purchase and sale requests. Purchase and redemption orders placed through an intermediary will be deemed to have been received and accepted by the Fund when the intermediary accepts the order. Customer orders will be priced at the Fund’s NAV next computed after they are accepted by an authorized broker or the broker’s authorized designee. Intermediaries may also designate other intermediaries to accept purchase and redemption orders on the Fund’s behalf. Consult your investment representative for specific information.

Wire Instructions

To make an initial purchase by wire, please call 1-800-626-9769 to have an account number assigned, to make arrangements for the submission of your application form and for current wire instructions.

Please note that your bank may charge you a wire fee. Please make sure that the amount that reaches the Fund, after you pay your bank’s wire fee, is in the appropriate minimum investment amount required by the Fund. Mail your completed application form to the Transfer Agent at the address above. In order to properly credit your wire, you should call the Transfer Agent to alert the Fund regarding your wire and application form.

Automatic Investment Plan

Once an account has been opened, you can make additional purchases of shares automatically through the Automatic Investment Plan either monthly or quarterly via Automated Clearing House (“ACH”). The minimum automatic investment is $500 and you have the option of choosing the 10^th, 15^th or 20^th day of the month or quarter as the transaction date. You may arrange for participation in the Automatic Investment Plan by completing the automatic investment plan section on the Account Application or by calling 1-800-626-9769.

How to Redeem Shares

You may redeem your shares either in writing or by telephone if you elected the telephone redemption privilege on your application. You should submit your written redemption request directly to:

9

Table of Contents

If your account is held in the name of a corporation, as a fiduciary or agent, or as a surviving joint owner, you may be required to provide additional documents with your redemption request.

If your address of record has changed within the last 30 days of receipt of your redemption request, you will be required to obtain a medallion signature guarantee (see “Redemptions (including all IRA transfers) Sent to an Address Other Than the Address of Record” for more information on medallion signature guarantees).

The Fund and the transfer agent reserve the right to refuse any telephone transaction when they are unable to confirm to their satisfaction that a caller is the account owner or a person authorized by the account owner. Neither the Fund nor any of its service contractors will be liable for any loss or expense in acting upon telephone instructions that are reasonably believed to be genuine. The telephone transaction privilege may be suspended, limited, modified or terminated at any time without prior notice by the Fund or BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc.

To redeem by telephone you can call 1-800-626-9769.

Please remember that all redemption requests must include your name and account number. The Fund may take up to seven days to pay redemption proceeds. If you redeem by wire transfer, the Fund’s transfer agent charges a fee (currently $10) for each wire redemption. If you are redeeming shares that were recently purchased by check, the proceeds may be delayed until the check for purchase clears; this may take up to 15 business days from the date of purchase.

Redemption in Kind

It is currently the Fund’s policy to pay all redemptions in cash. The Fund retains the right, however, to alter this policy to provide for redemptions in whole or in part by a distribution in-kind of securities held by the Fund in lieu of cash. Shareholders may incur brokerage charges on the sale of any such securities so received in payment of redemptions.

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

You can also redeem shares automatically on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis via a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (“SWP”). To establish a SWP, an account must have a current market value of at least $2,500 or more and must have dividends reinvested. The minimum amount of the systematic withdrawal is $250. The systematic withdrawals can be sent by check to the address of record or to your bank via ACH provided the bank is an online member of ACH. Any check or ACH withdrawal will be sent the business day following the redemption date. You may establish this plan by completing the appropriate section on the Account Application or by calling 1-800-626-9769.

Table of Contents

Redemptions (including all IRA transfers) Sent to an Address Other Than the Address of Record

For your protection, we will require an acceptable medallion signature guarantee (see below) for all fund redemptions that are sent to a different address than the address of record. This includes all IRA transfers. Redemption requests bearing a non-medallion signature guarantee will be returned to you in accordance with the transfer agent’s rejection procedures. This could significantly delay your redemption request as it will be returned to you via first class mail. The Fund will not be responsible for delays of this nature.

An acceptable medallion signature guarantee can be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker/dealer, clearing agency, savings association, or other financial institution which is participating in any of the following three medallion programs: Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP), Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (SEMP), and New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program (NYSE MSP). Signature guarantees from financial institutions which are not participating in one of these required programs will not be accepted.

Additional Purchase and Redemption Information

The Fund reserves the following rights as they relate to purchases and redemptions:

Shareholders should be aware that purchase and redemption requests mailed to the Fund’s Maryland address will not be processed until they are received by the Fund’s transfer agent (generally the next business day) at the address noted under “How to Buy Shares.” You can avoid delays by mailing requests for purchases and redemptions directly to the Fund’s transfer agent.

Table of Contents

Escheatment of Shares to State

If no activity occurs in your account within the time period specified by applicable state law, the assets in your account may be considered abandoned and transferred (also known as “escheated”) to the appropriate state regulators. The escheatment time period and procedures vary by state.

Frequent Trading Policy

The Fund is intended for long-term investors and not for those who wish to trade frequently in Fund shares. Frequent trading into and out of the Fund can have adverse consequences for the Fund and for long-term shareholders in the Fund. The Fund believes that frequent or excessive short-term trading activity by shareholders of the Fund may be detrimental to long-term shareholders because those activities may, among other things: (a) dilute the value of shares held by long-term shareholders; (b) cause the Fund to maintain larger cash positions than would otherwise be necessary; (c) increase brokerage commissions and related costs and expenses, and (d) incur additional tax liability. The Fund therefore discourages frequent purchases and redemptions by shareholders and it does not make any effort to accommodate this practice. To protect against such activity, the Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures that are intended to permit the Fund to curtail frequent or excessive short-term trading by shareholders. At the present time the Fund does not impose limits on the frequency of purchases and redemptions, nor does it limit the number of exchanges into the Fund. The Fund reserves the right, however, to impose certain limitations at any time with respect to trading in shares of the Fund, including suspending or terminating trading privileges in Fund shares, for any investor whom it believes has a history of abusive trading or whose trading, in the judgment of the Fund, has been or may be disruptive to the Fund. It may not be feasible for the Fund to prevent or detect every potential instance of abusive or excessive short-term trading.

Customer Identification Information

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person that opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Fund must obtain the following information for each person that opens a new account:

12

Table of Contents

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities.

Federal law prohibits the Fund and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Fund may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Fund may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

ACCOUNT STATEMENTS

The Fund provides you with:

The Fund provides the above shareholder services without charge, but may charge for special services such as requests for historical transcripts of accounts. Also, you may view your quarterly and annual statements on the Fund’s website at torray.com.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS

A complete list of the Fund’s portfolio holdings is publicly available on a quarterly basis through applicable filings made with the SEC on Forms N-CSR and N-Q. Additional information is also available on the Fund’s website at www.torray.com. A description of the Fund’s policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of its portfolio securities is provided in the Statement of Additional Information.

TAXES AND DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund declares and pays dividends quarterly and net capital gains at least annually. All distributions will be invested in shares of the Fund unless you elect on your account application to receive distributions in cash. You can elect to cancel cash payments by notifying the Fund’s transfer agent, in writing, prior to the date of distribution. Your choice will be effective for distributions paid after the Fund receives your written notice.

13

Table of Contents

The maximum tax rate for individual taxpayers applicable to long-term capital gains and income from certain qualifying dividends on certain corporate stock is generally either 15% or 20%, depending on whether the individual’s income exceeds certain threshold amounts. A shareholder will also have to satisfy a more than 60-day holding period for the Fund shares with respect to any distributions of qualifying dividends in order to obtain the benefit of the lower tax rates. These rate reductions do not apply to corporate taxpayers.

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, an additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from the Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds certain threshold amounts.

The Fund will distribute substantially all of its investment income and capital gains, if any. The dividends and distributions you receive may be subject to federal, state and local taxation, depending upon your tax situation. Capital gains distributions may be taxable at different rates depending on the length of time the Fund holds its securities. Short-term capital gains are taxed as ordinary income. Each redemption of Fund shares is a taxable event. The Fund will generally withhold 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) on distributions made to shareholders that are not citizens or residents of the United States. You should consult a tax advisor regarding your investment in the Fund.

PAYMENTS TO THIRD PARTIES BY THE MANAGER

The Manager may, out of its own resources, and without additional direct cost to the Fund or its shareholders, provide compensation to certain financial intermediaries, such as broker-dealers and financial advisers, in connection with sales of shares of the Fund. This compensation is generally made to those intermediaries that provide shareholder servicing, marketing support, broker education, and/or access to sales meetings, sales representatives and management representatives of the intermediary. Compensation may also be paid to intermediaries for inclusion of the Fund on a sales list, including a preferred or select sales list, in other sales programs or as an expense reimbursement in cases where the intermediary provides shareholder services to Fund shareholders.

Please be aware that the Fund may use brokers who sell shares of the Fund to effect portfolio transactions. The Fund does not consider the sale of Fund shares as a factor when selecting brokers to effect portfolio transactions. The Fund has adopted procedures which address these matters. You should note that if one mutual fund sponsor makes greater distribution assistance payments than another, your broker or financial adviser and his or her firm may have an incentive to recommend one fund complex over another.

SUMMARY SECTION

Investment Objective

The Torray Resolute Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to achieve long-term growth of capital.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.

Example

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Table of Contents

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 21.76% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Fund’s strategy is to invest in a concentrated portfolio of predominantly large capitalization companies (those with capitalizations of $5 billion or more) with proven records of increasing earnings on a consistent and sustainable basis. The Fund employs a concentrated approach, investing in 25 to 30 stocks, a long-term orientation and a quality focus. Correlation of securities and underlying businesses is considered to minimize risk within the Fund. Initial positions range from 1.5% to 3.0% of the Fund’s assets and may be increased over time to between 3.0% and 5.0%. Individual positions will not exceed 7.0%. Sector weights are independent of benchmarks, ranging from 0.0% to 35.0%, and cash is not employed in a tactical or strategic manner.

Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund

General Risk. All investments are subject to inherent risks, and an investment in the Fund is no exception. Accordingly, you may lose money by investing in the Fund and investors face the risk that Torray LLC’s (the “Manager’s”) business analyses prove faulty.

Market Risk. The value of the Fund’s investments will fluctuate as markets fluctuate and could decline over short- or long-term periods.

Focused Portfolio Risk. The Fund attempts to invest in a limited number of securities. Accordingly, the Fund may have more volatility and is considered to have more risk than a fund that invests in a greater number of securities because changes in the value of a single security may have a more significant effect, either negative or positive, on the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). To the extent the Fund invests its assets in fewer securities, the Fund is subject to greater risk of loss if any of those securities become permanently impaired.

No Guarantee. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Performance Information

Below is a bar chart and performance table that provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart illustrates how the Fund’s annual total returns have varied from year to year. The performance table provides the Fund’s average annual total returns both on a before-tax and an after-tax basis and compares the Fund’s performance against the Fund’s primary benchmark index, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, as well as an additional benchmark index, the S&P 500 Stock Index. It is important to remember that the Fund’s past performance (both before and after taxes) does not indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information may be obtained at the Fund’s website torray.com/performance.html.

During the period covered by this bar chart, the Fund’s highest return for a calendar quarter was 15.66% in the first quarter of 2012, and the lowest return for a calendar quarter was (13.01)% in the third quarter of 2011.

after-tax returns depend on the investor’s tax situation and may differ from those shown. The after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.

Investment Adviser

The Fund’s investment manager is Torray LLC.

Portfolio Manager

Nicholas C. Haffenreffer is a Principal of Torray LLC and the manager of the Fund. He has managed the Fund since its inception.

Purchasing and Selling Fund Shares

To purchase shares of the Fund for the first time, you must invest $2,500. Additional purchases can be made for $500 or more.

You, your spouse, or your children may open a related account for an initial investment of $2,000 if your current account meets the minimum initial investment amount of $2,500. A related account can be a joint account with your spouse or children or a retirement account such as an IRA.

You may purchase and sell shares on any day that the New York Stock Exchange is open.

You may sell Fund shares through your financial intermediary or by contacting the Fund: (i) by telephone at 1-800-626-9769; or (ii) in writing c/o BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc., P.O. Box 9803, Providence, RI 02940.

For more information about purchasing and redeeming fund shares, see “More Information About Purchasing and Redeeming Shares” on page 8 of this prospectus.

Tax Information

The Fund intends to make distributions that may be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains. Distributions on, and redemptions of, shares held in an IRA (or other tax-qualified plan) will not be currently taxable.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson

to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES AND RISKS

Investment Objective

As noted earlier, the Fund seeks to achieve long-term growth of capital.

The Fund’s investment objective may be changed without shareholder approval. Shareholders will be provided with prior written notice of any changes to the Fund’s investment objective.

There is no guarantee that the Fund’s objective will be achieved.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Manager’s investment philosophy is based on the belief that employing a long-term approach in a concentrated portfolio of diverse businesses demonstrating the ability to increase earnings in a sustainable manner will generate consistent excess returns on a risk-adjusted basis.

The Fund’s strategy is to invest in large capitalization companies (those with capitalizations of $10 billion or more) with proven records of increasing earnings on a consistent and sustainable basis. Sustainable growth is a product of businesses characterized by durable competitive advantages, high returns on and efficient use of capital, low financial and operating volatility, high levels of recurring revenue and low exposure to cyclical trends. Companies are reviewed on a fundamental basis in the context of long-term secular themes.

The Fund employs a concentrated approach, investing in 25 to 30 stocks, with a long-term orientation and a quality focus. Correlation of securities and underlying businesses is considered to minimize risk within the Fund. Initial positions range from 1.5% to 3.0% of assets and may be increased over time to between 3.0% and 5.0%. Individual positions will not exceed 7.0%. Sector weights are independent of benchmarks, ranging from 0.0% to 35.0%, and cash is not employed in a tactical or strategic manner.

Risk control is an integral part of the Manager’s process. In the context of security selection, the focus is on quality, which is defined as businesses demonstrating consistent financial and operating metrics through a full business cycle, high returns on capital, appropriate leverage and reasonable valuation. Risk control is also a primary part of portfolio construction. In order to achieve effective diversification, correlation among existing and prospective holdings is measured through multiple periods, assigning preference to issues exhibiting low correlation to

5

Table of Contents

the portfolio and among sectors. Excess (positive or negative) relative performance also initiates the review of a security by the Manager.

Positions are reduced or sold if they exhibit excess valuation, reach sector or position limits, show increased business volatility, are replaced by higher conviction ideas or fail to fulfill the original investment thesis.

The Fund’s investment strategies may be changed without shareholder approval.

Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund

The Fund’s investors face the risk that the Manager’s business analyses prove faulty. The Fund’s portfolio is more concentrated than that of the typical mutual fund. If the fundamental prospects of a number of large holdings are misjudged, shareholders may suffer losses even during a time when the values of the general market and many other mutual funds are rising. Beyond that possibility, there is always a risk that money may be lost on investments in equity mutual funds, such as the Fund. This is so because stock prices fluctuate—sometimes widely—in response to many factors including, but not limited to, company-specific and industry-wide fundamentals, inflation, interest rates, investor psychology and so on. Investors that sell, whether through need or choice after prices have fallen, obviously will realize less, and depending upon the original cost of their shares, may suffer a loss.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT FUND MANAGEMENT

The Fund’s investment manager is Torray LLC, 7501 Wisconsin Avenue, Suite 750W, Bethesda, Maryland 20814. Robert E. Torray is the Founder and Chairman of the Manager. Mr. Torray was also President of The Torray Corporation, a mutual fund manager that he founded in 1990, and the Chairman of Robert E. Torray & Co. Inc., a manager of large institutional portfolios that he founded May 1, 1972, each such entity having been succeeded to by the Manager.

Nicholas C. Haffenreffer is a Principal of Torray LLC and the manager of the Fund since its inception. Prior to joining Torray in 2010, he served as President of Resolute Capital Management LLC, a firm he founded in 1998 where he managed the firm’s Concentrated Large Growth and Small/Mid Cap Growth strategies from their inception. He also serves as a member of the Torray investment team and portfolio manager of the Torray Resolute Fund. Prior to founding Resolute, he was the Director of Research for Washington, DC-based Farr Miller & Washington, an equity analyst with T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., where he worked on the Growth Stock Fund, and an equity analyst for Select Equity Group, Inc. in New York City. Additional information about the portfolio manager’s compensation, other accounts managed by the portfolio manager, and the portfolio manager’s ownership of securities in the Fund is available in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.

Table of Contents

Subject to the oversight of the Board of Trustees of the Fund, the Manager provides investment advice and portfolio management services and oversees the administration of the Fund. The Manager received 1.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets as compensation for these services for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. The Manager has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund in order to limit the total annual operating expenses of the Fund to 1.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets through May 1, 2014. A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees approving the investment advisory contract of the Fund is available in the Fund’s Annual Report to Shareholders for the period ended December 31, 2012.

Prior Performance of the Manager’s Comparable Accounts

The table below sets forth data relating to the historical performance of The Resolute Concentrated Large Growth Composite (the “Composite”), a composite of all of the separate investment advisory accounts managed by Resolute Capital Management LLC since March 31, 1998, which have substantially similar investment objectives, policies and strategies as the Fund, and which at all times were managed under the direction of Nicholas Haffenreffer, the portfolio manager of the Fund, while Mr. Haffenreffer was President of Resolute Capital Management LLC, and which he has continued to manage since joining Torray LLC on July 1, 2010.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT PURCHASING AND REDEEMING SHARES

Pricing Fund Shares

Orders to buy or redeem shares that are received in good order prior to the close of the Fund (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) will be processed at the net asset value calculated that day. NAV is calculated by dividing the Fund’s net assets by the number of shares outstanding after the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) closes for the day.

The Fund uses market quotes that are readily available to value its securities. In cases where quotes are not readily available, such as with respect to restricted securities, private placements or other types of illiquid securities, the securities will be valued using fair value guidelines approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

How To Buy Shares

You may buy shares of the Fund on a no-load basis on any day that the NYSE is open.

The minimum initial purchase is $2,500. You should send your check payable to “The Torray Resolute Fund” with a completed account application to the Fund’s transfer agent:

8

Table of Contents

Additional purchases can be made for $500 or more and should be sent to the applicable address above. Please remember to include your account number on your check.

You, your spouse, or your children may open a related account for an initial investment of $2,000 if your current account meets the minimum initial investment amount of $2,500. A related account can be a joint account with your spouse or children or a retirement account such as an IRA.

When you open a related account you may be asked to present additional documents as proof of the relationship in addition to an account application. You will also be asked to provide your existing account number and taxpayer identification number. You should use caution when giving these numbers to another person because that person may be able to gain access to your account or other confidential financial information.

You may purchase shares of the Fund through an intermediary, such as an investment representative or a broker-dealer, who may charge additional fees and may require higher minimum investments or impose other limitations on buying and selling shares. If you purchase shares through an intermediary, that party is responsible for transmitting orders by close of business and may have an earlier cut-off time for purchase and sale requests. Purchase and redemption orders placed through an intermediary will be deemed to have been received and accepted by the Fund when the intermediary accepts the order. Customer orders will be priced at the Fund’s NAV next computed after they are accepted by an authorized broker or the broker’s authorized designee. Intermediaries may also designate other intermediaries to accept purchase and redemption orders on the Fund’s behalf. Consult your investment representative for specific information.

Wire Instructions

To make an initial purchase by wire, please call 1-800-626-9769 to have an account number assigned, to make arrangements for the submission of your application form and for current wire instructions.

Please note that your bank may charge you a wire fee. Please make sure that the amount that reaches the Fund, after you pay your bank’s wire fee, is in the appropriate minimum investment amount required by the Fund. Mail your completed application form to the Transfer Agent at the address above. In order to properly credit your wire, you should call the Transfer Agent to alert the Fund regarding your wire and application form.

Automatic Investment Plan

Once an account has been opened, you can make additional purchases of shares automatically through the Automatic Investment Plan either monthly or quarterly via

9

Table of Contents

Automated Clearing House (“ACH”). The minimum automatic investment is $500 and you have the option of choosing the 10^th, 15^th or 20^th day of the month or quarter as the transaction date. You may arrange for participation in the Automatic Investment Plan by completing the automatic investment plan section on the Account Application or by calling 1-800-626-9769.

How to Redeem Shares

You may redeem your shares either in writing or by telephone if you elected the telephone redemption privilege on your application. You should submit your written redemption request directly to:

If your account is held in the name of a corporation, as a fiduciary or agent, or as a surviving joint owner, you may be required to provide additional documents with your redemption request.

If your address of record has changed within the last 30 days of receipt of your redemption request, you will be required to obtain a medallion signature guarantee (see “Redemptions (including all IRA transfers) Sent to an Address Other Than the Address of Record” for more information on medallion signature guarantees).

The Fund and the transfer agent reserve the right to refuse any telephone transaction when they are unable to confirm to their satisfaction that a caller is the account owner or a person authorized by the account owner. Neither the Fund nor any of its service contractors will be liable for any loss or expense in acting upon telephone instructions that are reasonably believed to be genuine. The telephone transaction privilege may be suspended, limited, modified or terminated at any time without prior notice by the Fund or BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc.

To redeem by telephone you can call 1-800-626-9769.

Please remember that all redemption requests must include your name and account number. The Fund may take up to seven days to pay redemption proceeds. If you redeem by wire transfer, the Fund’s transfer agent charges a fee (currently $10) for each wire redemption. If you are redeeming shares that were recently purchased by check, the proceeds may be delayed until the check for purchase clears; this may take up to 15 business days from the date of purchase.

Table of Contents

Redemption in Kind

It is currently the Fund’s policy to pay all redemptions in cash. The Fund retains the right, however, to alter this policy to provide for redemptions in whole or in part by a distribution in-kind of securities held by the Fund in lieu of cash. Shareholders may incur brokerage charges on the sale of any such securities so received in payment of redemptions.

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

You can also redeem shares automatically on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis via a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (“SWP”). To establish a SWP, an account must have a current market value of at least $2,500 or more and must have dividends reinvested. The minimum amount of the systematic withdrawal is $250. The systematic withdrawals can be sent by check to the address of record or to your bank via ACH provided the bank is an online member of ACH. Any check or ACH withdrawal will be sent the business day following the redemption date. You may establish this plan by completing the appropriate section on the Account Application or by calling 1-800-626-9769.

Redemptions (including all IRA transfers) Sent to an Address Other Than the Address of Record

For your protection, we will require an acceptable medallion signature guarantee (see below) for all fund redemptions that are sent to a different address than the address of record. This includes all IRA transfers. Redemption requests bearing a non-medallion signature guarantee will be returned to you in accordance with the transfer agent’s rejection procedures. This could significantly delay your redemption request as it will be returned to you via first class mail. The Fund will not be responsible for delays of this nature.

An acceptable medallion signature guarantee can be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker/dealer, clearing agency, savings association, or other financial institution which is participating in any of the following three medallion programs: Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP), Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (SEMP), and New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program (NYSE MSP). Signature guarantees from financial institutions which are not participating in one of these required programs will not be accepted.

Additional Purchase and Redemption Information

The Fund reserves the following rights as they relate to purchases and redemptions:

11

Table of Contents

Shareholders should be aware that purchase and redemption requests mailed to the Fund’s Maryland address will not be processed until they are received by the Fund’s transfer agent (generally the next business day) at the address noted under “How to Buy Shares.” You can avoid delays by mailing requests for purchases and redemptions directly to the Fund’s transfer agent.

Escheatment of Shares to State

If no activity occurs in your account within the time period specified by applicable state law, the assets in your account may be considered abandoned and transferred (also known as “escheated”) to the appropriate state regulators. The escheatment time period and procedures vary by state.

Frequent Trading Policy

The Fund is intended for long-term investors and not for those who wish to trade frequently in Fund shares. Frequent trading into and out of the Fund can have adverse consequences for the Fund and for long-term shareholders in the Fund. The Fund believes that frequent or excessive short-term trading activity by shareholders of the Fund may be detrimental to long-term shareholders because those activities may, among other things: (a) dilute the value of shares held by long-term shareholders; (b) cause the Fund to maintain larger cash positions than would otherwise be necessary; (c) increase brokerage commissions and related costs and expenses; and (d) incur additional tax liability. The Fund therefore discourages frequent purchases and redemptions by shareholders and it does not make any effort to accommodate this practice. To protect against such activity, the Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures that are intended to permit the Fund to curtail frequent or excessive short-term trading by shareholders. At the present time the Fund does not impose limits on the frequency of purchases and redemptions, nor does it limit the number of exchanges into the Fund. The Fund reserves the right, however, to impose certain limitations at any time with respect to trading in shares of the Fund, including suspending or terminating trading privileges in Fund shares, for any investor whom it believes has a history of abusive trading or whose trading, in the judgment of the Fund, has been or may be disruptive to the Fund. It may not be feasible for the Fund

12

Table of Contents

to prevent or detect every potential instance of abusive or excessive short-term trading.

Customer Identification Information

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person that opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Fund must obtain the following information for each person that opens a new account:

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities.

Federal law prohibits the Fund and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Fund may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Fund may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

ACCOUNT STATEMENTS

The Fund provides you with:

13

Table of Contents

The Fund provides the above shareholder services without charge, but may charge for special services such as requests for historical transcripts of accounts. Also, you may view your quarterly and annual statements on the Fund’s website at torray.com.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS

A complete list of the Fund’s portfolio holdings is publicly available on a quarterly basis through applicable filings made with the SEC on Forms N-CSR and N-Q. Additional information is also available on the Fund’s website at www.torray.com. A description of the Fund’s policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of its portfolio securities is provided in the Statement of Additional Information.

TAXES AND DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund declares and pays dividends quarterly and net capital gains at least annually. All distributions will be invested in shares of the Fund unless you elect on your account application to receive distributions in cash. You can elect to cancel cash payments by notifying the Fund’s transfer agent, in writing, prior to the date of distribution. Your choice will be effective for distributions paid after the Fund receives your written notice.

The maximum tax rate for individual taxpayers applicable to long-term capital gains and income from certain qualifying dividends on certain corporate stock is generally either 15% or 20%, depending on whether the individual’s income exceeds certain threshold amounts. A shareholder will also have to satisfy a more than 60-day holding period for the Fund shares with respect to any distributions of qualifying dividends in order to obtain the benefit of the lower tax rates. These rate reductions do not apply to corporate taxpayers.

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, an additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from the Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds certain threshold amounts.

The Fund will distribute substantially all of its investment income and capital gains, if any. The dividends and distributions you receive may be subject to federal, state and local taxation, depending upon your tax situation. Capital gains distributions may be taxable at different rates depending on the length of time the Fund holds its securities. Short-term capital gains are taxed as ordinary income. Each redemption of Fund shares is a taxable event. The Fund will generally withhold 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) on distributions made to shareholders that are not

14

Table of Contents

citizens or residents of the United States. You should consult a tax advisor regarding your investment in the Fund.

PAYMENTS TO THIRD PARTIES BY THE MANAGER

The Manager may, out of its own resources, and without additional direct cost to the Fund or its shareholders, provide compensation to certain financial intermediaries, such as broker-dealers and financial advisers, in connection with sales of shares of the Fund. This compensation is generally made to those intermediaries that provide shareholder servicing, marketing support, broker education, and/or access to sales meetings, sales representatives and management representatives of the intermediary. Compensation may also be paid to intermediaries for inclusion of the Fund on a sales list, including a preferred or select sales list, in other sales programs or as an expense reimbursement in cases where the intermediary provides shareholder services to Fund shareholders.

Please be aware that the Fund may use brokers who sell shares of the Fund to effect portfolio transactions. The Fund does not consider the sale of Fund shares as a factor when selecting brokers to effect portfolio transactions. The Fund has adopted procedures which address these matters. You should note that if one mutual fund sponsor makes greater distribution assistance payments than another, your broker or financial adviser and his or her firm may have an incentive to recommend one fund complex over another.

ORGANIZATION OF THE FUND

The Trust was established as a Massachusetts business trust under the laws of Massachusetts by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated April 19, 1990. The Trust’s fiscal year ends on December 31 of each year.

Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be held liable for the obligations of the Fund. However, the Fund’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust disclaims shareholder liability for acts or obligations of the Fund and requires that notice of such disclaimer be given in each agreement, obligation or instrument entered into or executed by the Fund or the Trustees. The Agreement and Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of the Fund’s property for all loss and expense of any shareholder of the Fund held liable on account of being or having been a shareholder. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to circumstances in which the Fund would be unable to meet its obligations.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES, RISKS AND RESTRICTIONS

Investment Objectives

The Fund is a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objectives are to build investor wealth over extended periods and to minimize shareholder capital gains tax liability by limiting the realization of long and short-term gains. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve these objectives.

Equity Securities. Since the Fund purchases equity securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks and securities convertible into common stocks, the Fund is subject to the risks that stock prices both individually and market-wide will fall over short or extended periods of time, and that prices of the equity securities held by the Fund may fluctuate from day-to-day. Historically, the stock markets have moved in cycles. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The stock prices of these companies may suffer a decline in response. These factors contribute to price volatility. Therefore, in order to be successful, investors must accept that, although the stocks of good companies generally rise over long periods, they can trade at virtually any price in the short run.

Fixed-Income Securities. The Fund may invest up to 5% of its assets in fixed-income securities consisting of corporate notes, bonds and debentures, which may include convertible notes and bonds. Fixed-income securities are subject to interest rate risk which refers to the risk that the value of the Fund’s fixed-income securities can change in response to changes in prevailing interest rates causing volatility and possible loss of value in response to the movement in interest rates. The Fund is not limited with respect to the investment rating of the fixed-income securities in which it may invest and it may therefore purchase securities with investment ratings below investment grade. Securities that are rated below investment grade are subject to risks related to the credit quality of the issuer of the security. Such high yield/high risk securities are further subject to the risk that changes in economic conditions could lead to a weakened capacity of the issuers of the securities to make principal and interest payments, which is not necessarily the case with issuers of higher rated securities.

U.S. Treasury Securities. The Fund is free to invest in U.S. Treasury Securities of varying maturities. There are usually no brokerage commissions as such paid by the Fund in connection with the purchase of such instruments. The value of such securities can be expected to vary inversely to the changes in prevailing interest rates. Thus, if interest rates have increased from the time a security was purchased, such security, if sold, might be sold at a price less than its cost. Similarly, if interest rates have declined from the time a security was purchased, such security, if sold, might be sold at a price greater than its cost. See “Brokerage Services,” for a discussion of underwriters’ commissions and dealers’ spreads involved in the purchase and sale of such instruments.

Temporary Defensive Position. When adverse market or economic conditions occur, the Fund may temporarily invest all or a portion of its total assets in defensive instruments, including money market instruments, cash and cash equivalents. When following a defensive strategy, the Fund will be less likely to achieve its investment objectives.

The investment objectives and policies of the Fund set forth above and in the Prospectus may be changed without shareholder approval. Shareholders will be provided with prior written notice of any changes to the Fund’s investment objective.

The phrase “shareholder approval,” as used in the Prospectus, and the phrase “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities,” as used herein, means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund, or (2) 67% or more of the shares of the Fund present at a meeting if more than 50% of the outstanding shares are represented at the meeting in person or by proxy.

MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND

The Trust is overseen by a Board of Trustees (the “Board”), who has delegated the day-to-day management to the officers of the Trust. The Board meets regularly to review the Fund’s activities, contractual arrangements, and performance. The Trustees and officers serve until their successors are elected and qualified, or until the trustee or officer dies, resigns or is removed, or becomes disqualified.

Information regarding the Trustees and officers of the Trust is provided below. As used in this Statement of Additional Information, “Fund Complex” includes each series of the Trust, The Torray Fund and The Torray Resolute Fund.

Leadership Structure

Board Leadership Structure. Wayne H. Shaner serves as the Chairman of the Board of the Trust and in this capacity he presides at all meetings of the Trustees and oversees the functioning of the Board’s activities. The Chairman may perform such other functions as may be requested by the members of the Board from time to time. Except for any duties specified herein or pursuant to the Trust’s Declaration of Trust and By-Laws, the designation of Chairman does not impose on Mr. Shaner any duties, obligations or liability that are greater than the duties, obligations or liability imposed on such person as a member of the Board. The majority of the Board is comprised of Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”) and the Board believes that by maintaining a Board that has a majority of Independent Trustees allows the Board to operate in a manner that provides for an appropriate level of independent action and oversight. In accordance with applicable regulations regarding the governance of the Trust, the Independent Trustees meet in a separate quarterly session in conjunction with each quarterly meeting of the Board during which they review matters relating to their independent oversight of the Trust.

The Board has designated various standing committees, as further discussed below, each of which has a Chairman who is an Independent Trustee. The Board may also designate working groups or ad hoc committees as it deems appropriate, from time to time.

The Board regularly reviews this leadership structure and believes it to be appropriate because it allows the Board to exercise informed judgment over matters under its purview, and it allocates areas of responsibilities among committees of Trustees and the full Board in a manner that enhances effective oversight.

Trustee Qualifications. There are no specific required qualifications for Board membership. The Board believes that the different perspectives, viewpoints, professional experience, education and individual attributes of each Trustee represent a diversity of experiences and skills. In addition to the table above, the following is a brief discussion of the specific experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that led to the conclusion that each person identified below is qualified to serve as a Trustee.

Carol T. Crawford – As a trained attorney, Ms. Crawford has experience with various business, legal and regulatory issues. In addition, Ms. Crawford also has useful board experience derived from her service on other boards of directors.

Bruce C. Ellis – As a private investor with previous business and management experience, Mr. Ellis has familiarity with a variety of business and financial matters. He also has experience as a longstanding member of the Board.

Robert P. Moltz – As the president of a privately-owned independent insurance agency, Mr. Moltz has experience with a variety of business, financial, management, regulatory and operational issues. In addition, Mr. Moltz serves as Chairman of the Trust’s Audit Committee and he also has experience as a longstanding member of the Board.

In addition, he also has experience as a longstanding member of the Board.

Wayne H. Shaner – As someone who has been a participant in the investment industry for over thirty years, Mr. Shaner has extensive experience in the area of portfolio management. In addition, Mr. Shaner also has useful board experience derived from his service on other boards of directors and he has experience as a longstanding member of the Board.

Board Committees. The Board has an Audit Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Valuation Committee. The Audit Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are each comprised of all of the Board’s Independent Trustees. The Valuation Committee is comprised of at least two of the Board’s Independent Trustees. The Valuation Committee meets quarterly, as needed, in the event that the Fund holds any securities that are subject to valuation and it reviews the fair valuation of such securities on an as needed basis. The Valuation Committee did not meet during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. The Audit Committee oversees the Trust’s accounting and financial reporting policies and practices and oversees the quality and objectivity of the Trust’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof. Mr. Moltz serves as chair of the Audit Committee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, the Audit Committee met two times. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates the qualifications of Board member candidates and makes nominations for Independent Trustee membership on the Board. Ms. Crawford serves as chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Committee does not generally consider nominees recommended by shareholders. This Committee also oversees the Board governance process and has responsibility for periodically reviewing Board composition, Board compensation, Board committees and related Board process matters relating to Board governance practices. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee did not meet during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

Risk Oversight

Board Oversight of Risk Management. The Fund is subject to various risks including, among others, investment, financial, compliance, valuation and operational risks. Day-to-day risk management functions are included within the responsibilities of the Manager, and other service providers who carry out the Fund’s investment management and business affairs. The Manager and other service providers each have their own, independent interest in risk management, and their policies and procedures for carrying out risk management functions will depend, in part, on their individual priorities, resources and controls.

The Board has not established a standing risk oversight committee. Instead, in fulfilling its risk oversight responsibilities, the Board regularly solicits and/or receives reports from the Manager, the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) and from legal counsel to the Trust. The Board has designated the CCO to oversee the risk management processes, procedures and controls for the Trust. In this role, the CCO reports directly to the Board’s Independent Trustees and provides quarterly reports to the Board, in addition to an annual report to the Board in accordance with the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures and applicable regulatory requirements. The CCO also regularly provides the Board with updates on the application of the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures and how these procedures are designed to mitigate risk. In addition, as part of the Board’s periodic review of the Fund’s advisory and other service provider arrangements, the Board may consider risk management aspects of their operations and the functions for which they are responsible. The Board may, at any time and in its discretion, change the manner in which it conducts its risk oversight role in response to various relevant factors.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, the dollar range of equity securities owned by each Trustee in the Fund and the Fund Complex is as follows:

The Fund’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust provides that the Fund will indemnify its Trustees and each of its officers against liabilities and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation in which they may be involved because of their offices with the Fund, except if it is determined in the manner specified in the Agreement and Declaration of Trust that they have not acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that their actions were in the best interests of the Fund or that such indemnification would relieve any officer or Trustee of any errors and omissions to the Fund or its shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or her duties.

The Trustees set their level of compensation, which may be subject to change from time to time. Each of the Trustees who are not officers or employees of Torray LLC receives an annual retainer of $14,000, plus $2,000 for each Trustees’ meeting attended. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional annual retainer of $10,000. The salaries and expenses of each of the Trust’s officers are paid by the Manager.
