Fund Description

span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets (including investment borrowings) in the securities that comprise the Index. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Index. The Index is developed, maintained and sponsored by IPOX/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:6.5pt;position:relative;top:-2.75pt;"®/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;" Schuster LLC (the /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;font-style:italic;"“Index Provider”/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"). Solactive serves /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"as the index calculation agent. It is the sole responsibility of the Index Provider to decide on all matters relating to the Index methodology and Index constituent selection. The Index Provider may make exceptions to the Index methodology regarding /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"constituent inclusion, exclusion and weighting. /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"The Index seeks exposure to the top 100 largest and most liquid U.S. companies that have recently gone public, including initial public offerings (/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;font-style:italic;"“IPOs”/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;") and spin-offs, as well as select acquirers of recent IPOs. An IPO is a public offering in which the /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"shares of stock in a company are sold to the general public for the first time on an exchange. According to the Index Provider, the Index captures approximately 85% of the total market cap created via U.S. IPO and spin-off activity over the past 4 years, providing comprehensive exposure to the U.S. new listings market. The Index utilizes the Index Provider's proven and proprietary index technology to select the 100 largest and most liquid recent IPOs and spin-offs from the IPOX/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:6.5pt;position:relative;top:-2.75pt;"®/spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;" U.S. Composite /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"Index, which is a market-cap weighted index measuring the performance of all newly public U.S. listed companies primarily through IPO and spin-off. The Index employs a market-cap weighting scheme with a 10% cap on all constituents to ensure /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"diversification. The Fund may invest in securities of small, mid and large capitalization companies. /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"The Index is rebalanced and reconstituted quarterly and the Fund will make corresponding changes to its portfolio shortly after the Index changes are made public. The Index’s quarterly rebalance schedule may cause the Fund to experience a higher rate of portfolio turnover. /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"The Fund will be concentrated in an industry or a group of industries to the extent that the Index /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"is so concentrated. As of March/spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;" 31, 2026, the Index was composed of 100 securities and the Fund had significant investments /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"in /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"industrials companies and information technology companies, although this may change from time to time. /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"The Fund’s /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"investments will change as the Index changes and, as a result, the Fund may have significant investments in jurisdictions or investment sectors that it may not have had as of March 31,/spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;line-height:10.80pt;" /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"2026. To the extent the Fund invests a significant portion of its /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"assets in a given jurisdiction or investment sector, the Fund may be exposed to the risks associated with that jurisdiction or /spanspan style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"investment sector. /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;margin-left:0%;"In certain circumstances, such as pending corporate actions, economically significant IPOs, or spin-offs, mergers or acquisitions involving Index constituents, the Index Provider may make exceptions to the initial screening rebalancing and exit process described above. In addition, subject to the terms of the license agreement that permits the Fund to use the Index, the Index Provider may have the ability to change the Index methodology, terminate the license agreement or cease compiling, calculating /spanspan style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.00pt;"and publishing the Index, in each case without the consent of the Fund, the Advisor or the Fund’s shareholders./span
