Fund Descriptions
Growth Fund

This Fund is managed by RE Advisers Corporation and subadvised by T. Rowe Price Associates ("T. Rowe Price"), a global investment manager with a number of growth-oriented funds.

The Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation through investments in common stocks of growth companies. In taking a growth approach to investment selection, the Fund will normally invest at least 65% of net assets in the common stocks of large companies. A large company is defined as one whose market cap is larger than the median market cap of companies in the Russell 1000 Growth Index, a widely used benchmark of the largest domestic growth stocks. However, because the market capitalization of the companies in the Fund's portfolio and the Russell Index will change over time, the Fund will not automatically sell or stop buying stock of a company it already owns just because the company's market capitalization changes.

"We generally look for companies with an above-average rate of earnings and cash flow growth and a lucrative niche in the economy that gives them the ability to sustain earnings momentum even during times of slow economic growth. As a growth investor, T. Rowe Price believes that when a company increases its earnings faster than both inflation and the overall economy, the market will eventually reward it with a higher stock price," portfolio manager Robert Sharps explains.

In pursuing the Fund's investment objective, Sharps has the discretion to purchase some securities that do not meet its normal investment criteria, when he finds an unusual opportunity for gain. These special situations might arise when Sharps believes a security could increase in value for a variety of reasons, including a change in management, an extraordinary corporate event or a temporary imbalance in the supply of or demand for the securities.
