The modified capitalization weighting seeks to weight constituents based on their “free float” market capitalization subject to caps on the weights of the individual securities. Free float market capitalization measures a company’s market capitalization discounted by the percentage of its shares readily available to be traded by the general public in the open market (“free float”). At each rebalance, the maximum weight of an individual security is capped at 10%. Modified capitalization weighting is expected to limit the Fund’s exposure to the largest market capitalization companies in the Underlying Index. The Underlying Index may include large-, mid- or small-capitalization companies; however, the Underlying Index is not required to reflect any one or all market capitalizations. As of January 31, 2026, the Underlying Index had 36 constituents.

A replication strategy is an indexing strategy that involves investing in the securities of the Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Underlying Index. However, the Fund may utilize a representative sampling strategy with respect to the Underlying Index when a replication strategy might be detrimental or disadvantageous to shareholders, such as when there are practical difficulties or substantial costs involved in compiling a portfolio of equity securities to replicate the Underlying Index, in instances in which a security in the Underlying Index /span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%"becomes temporarily illiquid, unavailable or less liquid, or as a result of legal restrictions or limitations (such as tax diversification requirements) that apply to the Fund but not the Underlying Index./span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"spanbr//span/divdiv style="text-align:justify"span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%"The Adviser expects that, over time, the correlation between the Fund's performance and that of the Underlying Index, before fees and expenses, will exceed 95%.
