A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in total annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. Because the Fund is newly organized, portfolio turnover information is not yet available. Principal Investment Strategies The Fund, an actively-managed exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), seeks to achieve its investment objective by dynamically allocating across multiple asset classes based on systematic trend-following and momentum-driven signals. The term “pareto” is a reference to the “pareto principle,” which is a theory that roughly 80% of effects come from 20% of causes, meaning that a small portion of inputs generates the majority of outputs. For the Fund, this term refers to the investment process of the Fund’s investment sub-adviser, RCN Wealth Advisors, Inc. (the “Sub-Adviser”). The Sub-Adviser employs a dynamic allocation model that employs a rules-based approach to evaluate the prevailing trend and momentum strength of several major asset classes, including U.S. and international equities (including those located in emerging markets), gold, bitcoin, commodities, U.S. Treasury securities, and U.S. investment grade corporate bonds (i.e., generally rated Baa3 or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), BBB- or higher by S&P Global Ratings Group, a division of S&P Global Inc. (“S&P”), BBB- or higher by Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”)) or, if unrated, considered by the Sub-Adviser to be of equivalent quality. The dynamic allocation model’s trade signal inputs are human generated. To gain these investment exposures, the Fund will generally invest in other pooled investment vehicles, such as other ETFs and exchange-traded products (“ETPs”). With respect to the Fund’s equity exposure, allocations will generally be made to broad based securities market indices through investments in other ETFs, and the Fund may have exposure to equity securities of companies of all market capitalizations. However, the Fund may directly invest in the top holdings of a particular equity market index, rather than owning the entire index through an ETF investment. This approach is generally taken when the top holdings of an index are exhibiting positive relative momentum (i.e. outperforming the index as a whole) or if the top positions make up a significant portion (e.g., in excess of 50%) of the total market capitalization of the index. Under normal market conditions, allocation to the equity asset class is approximately 70% of the Fund’s net assets. However, the total allocation to the equity asset class will increase or decrease based on market performance and conditions. The Fund’s allocation to the equity asset class may range between 0% and 100%, depending on market conditions. When equity trends and momentum signals weaken or signal an exit condition pursuant to the Sub-Adviser’s investment process, the Fund systematically reduces equity exposure and reallocates toward short-term Treasury securities until conditions turn positive again, at which point equity allocations may be increased. Signals are derived from various data points, including, moving averages, price averages, rate of change and market breadth (i.e. advance-decline data). Entry and exit signals will compare closing prices relative to these various averages, as well as, when moving averages cross price averages. Ratios of one security to another are also used to calculate relative momentum in determining which security to hold. To mitigate the impact of drawdowns (i.e., a significant decline in the overall markets) and provide balance through changing market regimes, the Fund also allocates a portion of the portfolio to the other major asset classes, i.e., gold, Treasury bonds, bitcoin, commodities and U.S. investment grade corporate bonds.. Allocations to each of these other asset classes are systematically based on the prevailing trend and/or momentum strength of each asset class either on its own or relative to other asset classes, and are generally made through investments in other ETFs and ETPs. The Fund may also engage in covered call options strategies to seek to generate options premiums for the Fund and/or for hedging purposes during periods of high market volatility. Options premiums are generated when the Fund writes call options. The Sub-Adviser may also allocate Fund assets to ETFs or ETPs that provide exposure to managed futures strategies. Managed futures strategies typically involve a portfolio of actively traded futures contracts on various asset classes, including but not limited to equities, bonds, currencies, and commodities, and may be used by the Sub-Adviser as an additional means of gaining asset class exposures with a low correlation, and often inverse correlation, to equities. Managed futures strategies are typically designed to profit from increased price movement, regardless of direction, and can be used by the Sub-Adviser to hedge against volatile markets. Cayman Subsidiary The Fund intends to gain exposure to certain ETPs indirectly through a wholly-owned Cayman Islands subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) that is advised by the Tidal Investments LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser (the “Adviser” or “Tidal”), and sub-advised by the Sub-Adviser. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary, tested at the end of each fiscal quarter. The Subsidiary will generally invest in investments that do not generate “qualifying income” under the source of income test required to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Unlike the Fund, the Subsidiary may invest without limitation in such investments; however, the Subsidiary will comply with the same 1940 Act requirements that are applicable to the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Subsidiary will be subject to the same fundamental investment restrictions as the Fund and will comply with them on an aggregate basis with the Fund, and will follow the same compliance policies and procedures as the Fund. Unlike the Fund, the Subsidiary will not seek to qualify as a RIC under the Code. The Fund is the sole investor in the Subsidiary and does not expect the shares of the Subsidiary to be offered or sold to other investors. Because the value of the Subsidiary must not exceed 25% of the Fund’s value at the close of any quarter, the Subsidiary may need to sell assets as a quarter end approaches and pay a dividend to the Fund. This dividend will constitute qualifying income for RIC purposes. Except as otherwise noted, for purposes of this Prospectus, references to the Fund’s investments include the Fund’s indirect investments through the Subsidiary. Other Fund Attributes The Fund will generally hold between 3 and 20 portfolio holdings. The Fund’s strategy is expected to result in a high annual portfolio turnover rate. The Sub-Adviser’s investment process is systematic, repeatable, and disciplined, applying quantitative rules to evaluate asset classes regularly and adjust exposure as trends evolve. The Fund rebalances its portfolio as frequently as dictated by the model, but at least annually. Under normal market conditions, allocation to the equity asset class is approximately 70% of the Fund’s net assets. However, the total allocation to the equity asset class will increase or decrease based on market performance and conditions. As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund. Equity Market Risk. Common stocks are generally exposed to greater risk than other types of securities, such as preferred stock and debt obligations, because common stockholders generally have inferior rights to receive payment from specific issuers. Equity securities may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors that affect securities markets generally or factors affecting specific issuers, industries, or sectors in which the Fund invests. Bitcoin Investment Risks. The Fund’s indirect investment in bitcoin exposes it to the unique risks of this emerging innovation. Bitcoin’s price is highly volatile, and its market is influenced by the changing bitcoin network, fluctuating acceptance levels, and unpredictable usage trends. Not being a legal tender and operating outside central authority systems like banks, bitcoin faces potential government restrictions. For instance, some countries may limit or ban bitcoin transactions, negatively impacting its market value. The risks associated with bitcoin include the possibility of fraud, theft, market manipulation, and security breaches in trading platforms. A small group of large bitcoin holders, known as “whales,” can significantly influence bitcoin’s price and may have the ability to manipulate the price. The largely unregulated nature of bitcoin and its trading venues heightens risks of fraudulent activities and market manipulation, which could affect bitcoin’s price. For example, if a group of miners gains control over a majority of the bitcoin network, they could manipulate transactions to their advantage. Historical instances have seen bitcoin trading venues shut down due to fraud or security breaches, often leaving investors without recourse and facing significant losses. Updates to bitcoin’s software, proposed by developers, can lead to the creation of new digital assets, or “forks,” if not broadly adopted. This can impact bitcoin’s demand and the Fund’s performance. The extreme volatility of bitcoin’s market price can result in shareholder losses. Furthermore, the operation of bitcoin trading platforms may be disrupted or cease altogether due to various issues, further affecting bitcoin’s price and the Fund’s investments. The value of bitcoin has historically been subject to significant speculation, making trading and investing in bitcoin reliant on market sentiment rather than traditional fundamental analysis. Bitcoin’s price can be influenced by events unrelated to its security or utility, including instability in other speculative areas of the crypto/blockchain space, potentially leading to substantial declines in its value. Risks associated with crypto asset trading platforms include fragmentation, regulatory non-compliance, and the possibility of enforcement actions by regulatory authorities. The security of the Bitcoin Blockchain may be compromised if a single miner or group controls more than 50% of the network’s hashing power, where hashing power refers to the computational capacity used to validate and secure transactions on the blockchain. Proposed changes to the bitcoin protocol may not be universally adopted, leading to the creation of competing blockchains (forks) with different assets and participants, exemplified by past forks like Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin SV. The Bitcoin Blockchain protocol may contain vulnerabilities that attackers could exploit to disrupt its operation, potentially compromising the security and reliability of the network. Emerging alternative public blockchains, particularly those emphasizing privacy through technologies like zero-knowledge cryptography, pose risks and challenges to the dominance of the Bitcoin Blockchain as a payment system. Common impediments to adopting the Bitcoin Blockchain as a payment network include slow transaction processing, variability in transaction fees, and the volatility of bitcoin’s price, which may deter widespread adoption by businesses and consumers. The development and use of “Layer II solutions” are critical for the scalability and functionality of the Bitcoin Blockchain, but they also introduce risks such as off-chain transaction execution, which could affect transparency and security. Layer II solutions are off-chain protocols that improve scalability and reduce transaction costs by processing transactions outside the main blockchain network. Adoption and use of other blockchains supporting advanced applications like smart contracts present challenges to the dominance of the Bitcoin Blockchain, potentially impacting its long-term relevance and utility in the evolving landscape of blockchain technology. <div id="xdx_A85_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--DigitalAssetsRiskMember_zVQR25EjhrW8"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 30px"> </td> <td style="width: 30px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Digital Assets Risk: Digital assets like bitcoin, designed as mediums of exchange, are still an emerging asset class and are not presently widely used as such. They operate independently of any central authority or government backing and are subject to regulatory changes and extreme price volatility. The trading platforms for digital assets are relatively new, largely unregulated or possibly operating out of compliance with regulations, and thus more vulnerable to fraud and failures compared to traditional, regulated exchanges. Shutdowns of these platforms due to fraud, technical glitches, or security issues can significantly affect digital asset prices and market volatility.</td></tr> </table> <div id="xdx_A89_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--DigitalAssetMarketsRiskMember_zE3DjfB3YNwg"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 30px"> </td> <td style="width: 30px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Digital Asset Markets Risk: The digital asset market, particularly bitcoin, has experienced considerable volatility, leading to market disruptions and erosion of confidence among market participants.

Additionally, regulatory changes, internet disruptions, cybersecurity incidents, and intellectual property disputes could further affect the adoption and functionality of blockchain technology.</td></tr> </table> Foreign Securities Risk. Investments in securities or other instruments of non-U.S. issuers involve certain risks not involved in domestic investments and may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than investments in securities of U.S. companies. Financial markets in foreign countries often are not as developed, efficient, or liquid as financial markets in the United States, and therefore, the prices of non-U.S. securities and instruments can be more volatile. In addition, the Fund will be subject to risks associated with adverse political and economic developments in foreign countries, which may include the imposition of economic sanctions. Generally, there is less readily available and reliable information about non-U.S. issuers due to less rigorous disclosure or accounting standards and regulatory practices. <div id="xdx_A81_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--CurrencyExchangeRateRiskMember_zul3FC3im6L5"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 24px"> </td> <td style="width: 24px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Currency Exchange Rate Risk.

Developed market countries generally tend to rely on the services sectors (e.g., the financial services sector) as the primary source of economic growth and may be susceptible to the risks of individual service sectors. Many developed market countries have heavy indebtedness, which may lead downward pressure on the economies of these countries. As a result, it is possible that interest rates on debt of certain developed countries may rise to levels that make it difficult for such countries to service high debt levels without significant help from other countries or from a central bank. Developed market countries generally are dependent on the economies of certain key trading partners. Changes in any one economy may cause an adverse impact on several developed countries.</td></tr> </table> <div id="xdx_A81_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--EmergingMarketsRiskMember_zMYBBiECVhv4"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 24px"> </td> <td style="width: 24px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Emerging Markets Risk. The Fund’s assets may include exposure to securities issued by companies domiciled or headquartered in emerging market nations. Investments in securities traded in developing or emerging markets, or that provide exposure to such securities or markets, can involve additional risks relating to political, economic, currency, or regulatory conditions not associated with investments in U.S. securities and investments in more developed international markets. Such conditions may impact the ability of the Fund to buy, sell or otherwise transfer securities, adversely affect the trading market and price for Fund Shares and cause the Fund to decline in value.</td></tr> </table> Gold Investment Risks. The Fund’s indirect exposure to gold will subject it to significant risk due to the inherent volatility and unpredictability of the commodities markets. The value of these investments is typically derived from the price movements of physical gold or related economic variables. Price fluctuations in gold linked instruments can be swift and substantial, often showing a low correlation with the returns of traditional equity and bond markets and may not align with trends in other asset classes. Numerous factors can influence the price of gold and gold futures contracts, including overall market movements, interest rate changes, and variations in global supply and demand. Additionally, the volume of gold imports and exports, production factors such as weather conditions, and technological advances in gold processing and mining can significantly impact gold and gold futures prices. Increased hedging activities, economic conditions, regulatory developments, and political stability also play crucial roles. Furthermore, global supply and demand dynamics, political and economic events, inflation expectations, currency exchange rates, and investment activities of hedge funds and commodity funds can all affect gold prices. Sharp fluctuations in gold markets may result in potential losses. In addition, gold markets have experienced extended periods of flat or declining prices. Investors should also be aware that while gold is often used to preserve wealth, there is no assurance that it will maintain its long-term value in terms of purchasing power. Commodities Risk. The Fund’s exposure to investments in physical commodities subjects the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities, such as stocks and bonds. The commodities markets may fluctuate rapidly based on a variety of factors, including overall market movements; economic events and policies; changes in interest rates or inflation rates; changes in monetary and exchange control programs; war; acts of terrorism; natural disasters; and technological developments. Variables such as disease, drought, floods, weather, trade, embargoes, tariffs, and other political events, in particular, may have a larger impact on commodity prices than on traditional securities. The prices of commodities can also fluctuate widely due to supply and demand disruptions in major producing or consuming regions. Because certain commodities may be produced in a limited number of countries and may be controlled by a small number of producers, political, economic, and supply-related events in such countries could have a disproportionate impact on the prices of such commodities. These factors may affect the value of the Fund in varying ways, and different factors may cause the value and the volatility of the Fund to move in inconsistent directions at inconsistent rates. The current or “spot” prices of physical commodities may also affect, in a volatile and inconsistent manner, the prices of futures contracts in respect of the relevant commodity. Fixed Income Securities Risk. The Fund’s assets may include exposure to fixed income securities. The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to changes in an issuer’s credit rating or market perceptions about the creditworthiness of an issuer. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Changes in government intervention may have adverse effects on investments, volatility, and illiquidity in debt markets. These changes could cause the Fund’s net asset value to fluctuate or make it more difficult for the Fund to accurately value its securities. How specific fixed income securities may react to changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each security. Interest Rate Risk. Generally, the value of fixed income securities will change inversely with changes in interest rates. As interest rates rise, the market value of fixed income securities tends to decrease. Conversely, as interest rates fall, the market value of fixed income securities tends to increase. This risk will be greater for long-term securities than for short-term securities. Changes in government intervention may have adverse effects on investments, volatility, and illiquidity in debt markets. Underlying Fund Risks. <div id="xdx_A82_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--GeneralMember_zPIyJaKIZcr8"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 24px"> </td> <td style="width: 24px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">General. The Fund will incur higher and duplicative expenses when it invests in ETFs, ETPs and other investment companies (“Underlying Funds”). By investing in another investment company, the Fund becomes a shareholder of that investment company and bears its proportionate share of the fees and expenses of the other investment company. There is also the risk that the Fund may suffer losses due to the investment practices of the Underlying Funds as the Fund will be subject to substantially the same risks as those associated with the direct ownership of securities held by such investment companies.

Investing in an Underlying Fund that focuses on gold, energy or other commodity, either through direct holdings or indirectly via derivatives like futures contracts, carries significant risk due to the inherent volatility and unpredictability of the commodities markets. Underlying Funds that trade futures contracts are subject to derivatives risk, leverage risk, counterparty risk and futures contracts risk, among other risks. In addition, Underlying Funds holding gold directly face significant custodial and safeguarding risks regarding their gold holdings. There is an inherent danger of these gold bars being lost, damaged, stolen, or becoming inaccessible due to factors such as natural disasters or terrorism. </td></tr> </table> <div id="xdx_A8D_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--DerivativesRiskOneMember_zi2B6EfAmb1e"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 24px"> </td> <td style="width: 24px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Derivatives Risk.

The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than directly investing in the underlying reference asset(s).

Accordingly, investors in such an Underlying Fund would not have the protections expressly provided by that statute, including: provisions preventing Underlying Fund insiders from managing an Underlying Fund to their benefit and to the detriment of shareholders; provisions preventing an Underlying Fund from issuing securities having inequitable or discriminatory provisions; provisions preventing management by irresponsible persons; provisions preventing the use of unsound or misleading methods of computing Underlying Fund earnings and asset value; provisions prohibiting suspension of redemptions (except under limited circumstances); provisions limiting fund leverage; provisions imposing a fiduciary duty on fund managers with respect to receipt of compensation for services; and provisions preventing changes in an Underlying Fund’s character without the consent of shareholders.</td></tr> </table> Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indices. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other ordinary investments, including risk related to the market, imperfect correlation with underlying investments, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than directly investing in securities. When the Fund uses derivatives, there may be an imperfect correlation between the value of the underlying asset and the derivative, which may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective. Because derivatives often require only a limited initial investment, the use of derivatives may expose the Fund to losses in excess of those amounts initially invested. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are subject to the following risks: Options Contracts. The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying asset, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests are substantially influenced by the value of the underlying asset. The Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Fund may expire worthless. The options held by the Fund are exercisable at the strike price on their expiration date. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly move with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the underlying asset. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in the values of options contracts and the underlying asset, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by the Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. The Fund may also write call options, which includes the risk that the underlying asset appreciates sufficiently over the period to offset the net premium received by the Fund for the written option, resulting in a loss to the Fund. Counterparty Risk. The Fund is subject to counterparty risk by virtue of its investments in options contracts. Transactions in some types of derivatives, including options, are required to be centrally cleared (“cleared derivatives”). In a transaction involving cleared derivatives, the Fund’s counterparty is a clearing house rather than a bank or broker. Since the Fund is not a member of clearing houses and only members of a clearing house (“clearing members”) can participate directly in the clearing house, the Fund will hold cleared derivatives through accounts at clearing members. In cleared derivatives positions, the Fund will make payments (including margin payments) to and receive payments from a clearing house through their accounts at clearing members. Customer funds held at a clearing organization in connection with any options contracts are held in a commingled omnibus account and are not identified to the name of the clearing member’s individual customers. As a result, assets deposited by the Fund with any clearing member as margin for options may, in certain circumstances, be used to satisfy losses of other clients of the Fund’s clearing member. In addition, although clearing members guarantee performance of their clients’ obligations to the clearing house, there is a risk that the assets of the Fund might not be fully protected in the event of the clearing member’s bankruptcy, as the Fund would be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the clearing member’s customers for the relevant account class. The Fund is also subject to the risk that a limited number of clearing members are willing to transact on the Fund’s behalf, which heightens the risks associated with a clearing member’s default. If a clearing member defaults the Fund could lose some or all of the benefits of a transaction entered into by the Fund with the clearing member. If the Fund cannot find a clearing member to transact with on the Fund’s behalf, the Fund may be unable to effectively implement its investment strategy. Market Capitalization Risk. <div id="xdx_A8A_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--LargecapitalizationInvestingMember_z0F3FYrTzdC5"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 24px"> </td> <td style="width: 24px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Large-Capitalization Investing.

The securities of mid-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than large capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole. Some medium capitalization companies have limited product lines, markets, financial resources, and management personnel and tend to concentrate on fewer geographical markets relative to large-capitalization companies.</td></tr> </table> <div id="xdx_A89_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--SmallcapitalizationInvestingMember_z4t6AqGlDRD8"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 24px"> </td> <td style="width: 24px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Small-Capitalization Investing. The securities of small-capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse issuer, market, political, or economic developments than securities of large- or mid-capitalization companies. The securities of small-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than large- or mid-capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole. There is typically less publicly available information concerning smaller-capitalization companies than for larger, more established companies.</td></tr> </table> Models and Data Risk. The composition of the Fund’s portfolio is heavily dependent on investment models developed by the Sub-Adviser as well as information and data supplied by third parties (“Models and Data”). When Models and Data prove to be incorrect or incomplete, any decisions made in reliance thereon may lead to the inclusion or exclusion of securities from the Fund’s portfolio that would have been excluded or included had the Models and Data been correct and complete. Errors in programming, data entry, system compatibility, or database integrity can result in the unintended inclusion or exclusion of securities in the Fund’s portfolio. Such errors, whether due to human or technological factors, could induce the Sub-Adviser to make investment choices that would not have been made with accurate and complete information, potentially leading to losses or missed gains for the Fund. Cayman Subsidiary Risk. By investing in the Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the Subsidiary’s investments. The investments held by the Subsidiary are subject to the same economic risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. The Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, and, unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the Fund and/or the Subsidiary to continue to operate as it does currently and could adversely affect the Fund. For example, the Cayman Islands does not currently impose any income, corporate or capital gains tax or withholding tax on the Subsidiary. If Cayman Islands law changes such that the Subsidiary must pay Cayman Islands taxes, Fund shareholders would likely suffer decreased investment returns. In addition, the Subsidiary is also subject to many of the risks to which the Fund is subject, such as tax risks, commodity related risks, and market and data risks. Tax Risk. The Fund intends to treat any income received by the Subsidiary as “qualifying income” under the provisions of the Code applicable to RICs. The IRS has issued numerous private letter rulings (“PLRs”) provided to third parties not associated with the Fund or its affiliates (which only those parties may rely on as precedent) concluding that similar arrangements resulted in qualifying income. Many of such PLRs have now been revoked by the IRS. In March of 2019, the IRS published Regulations that concluded that income from a corporation similar to the Subsidiary would be qualifying income. Although the Regulations do not require distributions from the Subsidiary, the Fund intends to cause the Subsidiary to make distributions that would allow the Fund to make timely distributions to its shareholders and to meet the requirement that the Subsidiary have a value not in excess of 25% of the Fund’s value at the close of a quarter. The Fund generally will be required to include in its own taxable income the income of the Subsidiary for a tax year, regardless of whether the Fund receives a distribution of the Subsidiary’s income in that tax year, and this income would nevertheless be subject to the distribution requirement for qualification as a regulated investment company and would be taken into account for purposes of the 4% excise tax. In addition, to comply with the asset diversification test applicable to a RIC, the Fund will attempt to ensure that the value of instruments it holds whose value is determined by reference to a specific underlying issuer is never 25% of the total value of Fund assets at the close of any quarter. If the Fund’s investments in instruments whose value is determined by reference to a specific underlying issuer were to exceed 25% of the Fund’s total assets at the end of a tax quarter, the Fund, generally, has a grace period to cure such lack of compliance. If the Fund fails to timely cure, it may no longer be eligible to be treated as a RIC.

In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, Shares may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face delisting: (i) APs exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other APs step forward to perform these services; or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.</td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td style="text-align: justify"> </td></tr> </table> <div id="xdx_A8B_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--CashRedemptionRiskMember_z4HjO1YXj7F"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 38px"> </td> <td style="width: 38px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Cash Redemption Risk. The Fund’s investment strategy may require it to redeem Shares for cash or to otherwise include cash as part of its redemption proceeds. For example, the Fund may not be able to redeem in-kind certain securities held by the Fund (e.g., derivative instruments). In such a case, the Fund may be required to sell or unwind portfolio investments to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds. This may cause the Fund to recognize a capital gain that it might not have recognized if it had made a redemption in-kind. As a result, the Fund may pay out higher annual capital gain distributions than if the in-kind redemption process was used. By paying out higher annual capital gain distributions, investors may be subjected to increased capital gains taxes. Additionally, there may be brokerage costs or taxable gains or losses that may be imposed on the Fund in connection with a cash redemption that may not have occurred if the Fund had made a redemption in-kind. These costs could decrease the value of the Fund to the extent they are not offset by a transaction fee payable by an AP.</td></tr> </table> <div id="xdx_A8E_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--CostsOfBuyingOrSellingSharesMember_zlBNQiXoz3uj"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 38px"> </td> <td style="width: 38px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Costs of Buying or Selling Shares. Investors buying or selling Shares in the secondary market will pay brokerage commissions or other charges imposed by brokers, as determined by that broker. Brokerage commissions are often a fixed amount and may be a significant proportional cost for investors seeking to buy or sell relatively small amounts of Shares. In addition, secondary market investors will also incur the cost of the bid-ask spread. The bid-ask spread varies over time for Shares based on trading volume and market liquidity. The bid-ask spread is generally smaller if Shares have more trading volume and market liquidity and larger if Shares have little trading volume and market liquidity. Further, a relatively small investor base in the Fund, asset swings in the Fund and/or increased market volatility may increase the bid-ask spread. Due to the costs of buying or selling Shares, including bid-ask spreads, frequent trading of Shares may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in Shares may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments.</td></tr> </table> <div id="xdx_A86_eoef--RiskTextBlock_hoef--RiskAxis__custom--SharesMayTradeAtPricesOtherThanNavMember_zKFh4yTlzksl"></div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 38px"> </td> <td style="width: 38px">●</td> <td style="text-align: justify">Shares May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. As with all ETFs, Shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of Shares will approximate the Fund’s NAV, there may be times when the market price of Shares is more than the NAV intra-day (premium) or less than the NAV intra-day (discount) due to supply and demand of Shares or during periods of market volatility or changes in portfolio composition.

Although Shares are listed for trading on a national securities exchange, such as NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), and may be traded on U.S. exchanges other than the Exchange, there can be no assurance that Shares will trade with any volume, or at all, on any stock exchange. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of Shares and the liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio holdings may deteriorate.</td></tr> </table> Economic and Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in the general financial markets, a particular financial market, or other asset classes, due to a number of factors, including inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, financial system instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition, the value of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, country instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics. The imposition by the U.S. of tariffs on goods imported from foreign countries and reciprocal tariffs levied on U.S. goods by those countries also may lead to volatility and instability in domestic and foreign markets. High Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund may actively and frequently trade a significant portion of the Fund’s holdings. A high portfolio turnover rate increases transaction costs, which may increase the Fund’s expenses. Frequent trading may also cause adverse tax consequences for investors in the Fund due to an increase in short-term capital gains. Management Risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that its active management approach, including the execution of buy-and-hold investment strategies by the Sub-Adviser, may not enable it to achieve its investment objective. This risk includes the potential for underperformance or failure to meet investment goals due to the Sub-Adviser’s decisions and implementation of investment strategies over time. New Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized management investment company with no operating history. As a result, prospective investors do not have a track record or history on which to base their investment decisions. New Sub-Adviser Risk. The Sub-Adviser is a newly formed entity and has no experience with managing an exchange-traded fund, which may limit the Sub-Adviser’s effectiveness. Operational Risk. The Fund is subject to risks arising from various operational factors, including, but not limited to, human error, processing and communication errors, errors of the Fund’s service providers, counterparties or other third-parties, failed or inadequate processes and technology or systems failures. The Fund relies on third-parties for a range of services, including custody. Any delay or failure relating to engaging or maintaining such service providers may affect the Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective. Although the Fund, Adviser, and Sub-Adviser seek to reduce these operational risks through controls and procedures, there is no way to completely protect against such risks. U.S. Government and U.S. Agency Obligations Risk. The Fund may invest in securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities both directly and via ETFs. U.S. Government obligations include securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, such as the U.S. Treasury. The market value of U.S. Government and U.S. Agency obligations may vary due to fluctuations in interest rates. In addition, changes to the financial condition or credit rating of the U.S. Government may cause the value of the Fund’s investments in obligations issued by the U.S. Government to decline. Certain political events in the U.S., such as a prolonged government shutdown or potential default on the national debt, may also cause investors to lose confidence in the U.S. government and may cause the value of U.S. Government obligations to decline. Payment of principal and interest on U.S. Government obligations may be backed by the full faith and credit of the United States or may be backed solely by the issuing or guaranteeing agency or instrumentality itself. In the latter case, the investor must look principally to the agency or instrumentality issuing or guaranteeing the obligation for ultimate repayment, which agency or instrumentality may be privately owned. There can be no assurance that the U.S. Government would provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities (including government-sponsored enterprises) where it is not obligated to do so.
