| 3. | The following paragraphs are hereby added to the sub-section of the Prospectus entitled “Principal Investment Strategies” under the section entitled “Summary Section – Bridge Builder Small/Mid Cap Value Fund” and to the corresponding sub-section of the Summary Prospectus: |
Eagle’s Principal Investment Strategies
During normal market conditions, Eagle primarily invests in the equity securities of small capitalization companies. When making investment decisions, Eagle generally focuses on investing in the securities of small capitalization companies that demonstrate growth potential at a price that does not appear to reflect the company’s true underlying value. Eagle uses a three-pronged investment philosophy when evaluating potential additions to the portfolio – quality, valuation, and balance. Eagle seeks quality by investing in companies with superior cash-flow generation, management teams with a successful record of business strategy execution, sustainable growth, and a defensive business model. It seeks attractive valuation using market fluctuations as opportunistic entry points. Finally, it attempts to balance the allocated portion of the Fund’s portfolio through sector-weight policies that provide diversification across major economic sectors.
Federated MDT’s Principal Investment Strategies
Federated MDT primarily invests in the common stock of small U.S. companies. Federated MDT utilizes a small capitalization growth approach by selecting most of its investments from companies listed in the Russell 2000® Growth Index. Federated MDT’s investments may include, but are not limited to, equity securities of domestic issuers and REITs. As Federated MDT’s sector exposure approximates the Russell 2000® Growth Index, their allocated portion of the Fund may, from time to time, have larger allocations to certain broad market sectors, such as healthcare, technology and
2
industrials. Federated MDT implements its strategy using a quantitative model driven by fundamental and technical stock selection variables. This process seeks to impose strict discipline over stock selection, unimpeded by market or manager psychology. It seeks to maximize compound annual return while controlling risk. The process also takes into account trading costs in an effort to ensure that trades are generated only to the extent they are expected to be profitable on an after-trading cost basis. Additionally, risk is controlled through diversification constraints which limit exposure to individual companies as well as groups of correlated companies. Federated MDT actively trades its portfolio securities as part of implementing its investment strategy.
SIMG’s Principal Investment Strategies
SIMG evaluates and selects securities of small capitalization companies. SIMG primarily invests in the common stock of U.S. companies, although ADRs can be purchased from time-to-time. When making its investment decisions, SIMG employs a disciplined, bottom-up investment selection process that combines rigorous fundamental analysis with quantitative screening in an effort to identify companies that exhibit potential for superior earnings growth that is unrecognized by the markets. SIMG has two screens—one for core growth stocks and one for catalyst stocks. Core growth stocks have strong growth franchises, recurring revenue, and above-average growth rates; catalyst stocks, in comparison, are experiencing change that could lead to accelerated earnings growth.

When making investment decisions, Eagle generally focuses on investing in the securities of small capitalization companies that demonstrate growth potential at a price that does not appear to reflect the company’s true underlying value.

Federated MDT’s Principal Investment Strategies
Federated MDT primarily invests in the common stock of small U.S. companies and may also invest in REITs. Federated MDT seeks to maximize compound annual return while controlling risk. Individual stocks are selected based upon a proprietary quantitative model that is designed to facilitate an objective, disciplined, quantitative analysis of every stock in the relevant investment universe.
Federated MDT’s quantitative model constructs the portfolio by considering fundamental and technical measures, analyzing expected trading costs and employing risk controls to promote diversification. The process also takes into account trading costs in an effort to ensure that trades are generated only to the extent they are expected to be profitable on an after-trading cost basis. Additionally, risk is controlled through diversification constraints which limit exposure to individual companies as well as groups of correlated companies. Federated MDT reviews the
4
proposed trades produced by the process in an effort to ensure that they are based on accurate and current information. If a proposed trade is deemed to be based on inaccurate or stale information, the trade decision is deferred until the model incorporates timely and accurate information.
Federated MDT may sell securities for reasons including, but not limited to: (i) identification of deteriorating stock selection factors; (ii) identification of replacement securities with higher perceived value; and (iii) compliance with the Fund’s investment objectives, strategy, limitations and other parameters. Federated MDT selects most of its investments from companies listed in the Russell 2000® Growth Index. Because Federated MDT primarily invests in companies that are defined by reference to the Russell 2000® Growth Index, the market capitalization of companies in which Federated MDT may invest will vary with market conditions. As Federated MDT’s allocated portion of the Fund’s sector exposure approximates the Russell 2000® Growth Index, Federated MDT’s allocated portion of the Fund may, from time to time, have larger allocations to certain broad market sectors, such as healthcare, technology and industrials. Federated MDT actively trades its portfolio securities as part of implementing its investment strategy.
SIMG’s Principal Investment Strategies
SIMG evaluates and selects securities of small capitalization companies. SIMG primarily invests in the common stock of U.S. companies, although ADRs can be purchased from time-to-time. SIMG believes that securities of small capitalization companies have the opportunity to appreciate more quickly than larger capitalization companies due to greater market inefficiencies. SIMG attributes these inefficiencies primarily to lower levels of research coverage in this area of the market.
SIMG believes that earnings growth drives stock performance. SIMG uses a disciplined, bottom-up investment selection process that combines both fundamental analysis and the use of proprietary quantitative tools and screens to identify companies that exhibit potential for superior earnings growth that is unrecognized by the markets. SIMG has two screens—one for core growth stocks and one for catalyst stocks. Core growth stocks have strong growth franchises, recurring revenue, and above-average growth rates; catalyst stocks, in comparison, are experiencing change that could lead to accelerated earnings growth. There are common elements in both types of stocks, such as higher forward growth rates, above-median price/earnings ratios, higher return on equity, and positive earnings revisions.
