| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) |
1. Organization
Westwood Salient Enhanced Midstream Income ETF (Midstream Income ETF), Westwood Salient Enhanced Energy Income ETF (Energy Income ETF) and Westwood Enhanced Income Opportunity ETF (Income Opportunity ETF) (individually, a Fund and collectively, the Funds) are each a series of Ultimus Managers Trust (the Trust), an open-end investment company established as an Ohio business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated February 28, 2012. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the 1940 Act). Other series of the Trust are not included in this report. The Midstream Income ETF commenced operations on April 8, 2024, the Energy Income ETF commenced operations on April 30, 2024 and the Income Opportunity ETF commenced operations on December 11, 2025.
The Midstream Income ETF and Energy Income ETF are non-diversified, exchange-traded funds (ETF) that seek to provide current income and capital appreciation. The Income Opportunity ETF is a diversified ETF that seeks to provide current income and capital appreciation.
Shares of the Midstream Income ETF are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Shares of the Energy Income ETF are listed and traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq). Shares of the Income Opportunity ETF are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange Arca (NYSE Arca). Market prices for the Shares may be different from their net asset value (NAV). The Funds issue and redeem shares solely to certain financial institutions such as registered broker-dealers and banks (Authorized Participants or APs) that have entered into agreements with the Funds distributor on a continuous basis at the NAV per share in aggregations of a specified number of shares called Creation Units. Creation Units generally are issued in exchange for a basket of securities (Deposit Securities), together with the deposit of a specified cash payment (Balancing Amount). Shares are not individually redeemable, but are redeemable only in Creation Unit aggregations, and generally in exchange for portfolio securities and a specified cash payment. A Creation Unit of the Funds consists of a block of shares.
Westwood Management Corporation (the Adviser) serves as investment advisor to the Funds. The Adviser is wholly owned subsidiary of Westwood Holdings Group, Inc., an institutional asset management company.
The Adviser has retained Vident Asset Management (the Sub-Adviser) to serve as the trading sub-adviser for the Funds. The Sub-Adviser is responsible for trading portfolio securities for the Funds, including selecting broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale transactions, subject to supervision of the Adviser and the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the Board).
Other series of the Trust, that are also managed by the Adviser, invest in the Funds, therefore making them affiliates of the other series.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of the Funds significant accounting policies. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The Funds follow accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, Including Accounting Standard Update 2013-08.
Segment reporting – The management team of the Adviser, acts as each Funds chief operating decision maker (CODM). The CODM has determined that each Fund has a single operating segment as the CODM monitors the operating results of each Fund as a whole and each Funds long-term strategic asset allocation is predetermined in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the
22
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
Adviser. The CODM allocates resources and assesses performance based on the operating results of each Fund, which is consistent with the results presented in each Funds Schedules of Investments, Statements of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights.
Accounting Pronouncement – In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. Fund management concludes that there is no material impact on the Funds financial statements.
Securities valuation – Each Fund values its portfolio securities at market value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each business day the NYSE is open for business. The Funds value their listed securities on the basis of the securitys last sale price on the securitys primary exchange, if available, otherwise at the exchanges most recently quoted mean price. NASDAQ-listed securities are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Investments representing shares of other open-end investment companies, other than ETFs, if any, but including money market funds, are valued at their NAV as reported by such companies. Option contracts are valued at the closing price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded; if no closing price is available at the time of valuation, the option will be valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices for that day. When using a quoted price and when the market is considered active, these securities will be classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy (see below). Fixed income securities, if any, are generally valued using prices provided by an independent pricing service approved by the Board. The independent pricing service uses information with respect to transactions in bonds, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities, and various relationships between securities in determining these prices. In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, the Funds value its securities and other assets at fair value as determined by the Adviser, as the Funds valuation designee, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used. Unavailable or unreliable market quotes may be due to the following factors: a substantial bid-ask spread; infrequent sales resulting in stale prices; insufficient trading volume; small trade sizes; a temporary lapse in any reliable pricing source; and actions of the securities or futures markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading. As a result, the prices of securities used to calculate the Funds NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Securities traded on foreign exchanges, if any, are fair valued by an independent pricing service and translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing service.
GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of a Funds investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| ● | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
| ● | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs |
| ● | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs |
The inputs or methods used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Refer to the Schedules of Investments for a listing of securities by sector and industry type. The Funds did not hold any derivative instruments or any assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of or during the period ended April 30, 2026.
Cash – The Funds cash, if any, is held in a bank account with balances which may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limit of $250,000. The cash balances reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the Funds represent the amount held as of April 30, 2026.
Share valuation – The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of the assets, less the liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share is equal to the NAV per share.
Investment income – Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the security received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if any, have been recorded in accordance with the Funds understanding of
24
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
the applicable countrys tax rules and rates. The Funds may invest in real estate investment trusts (REITs) that pay distributions to their shareholders based on available funds from operations. It is common for these distributions to exceed the REITs taxable earnings and profits resulting in the excess portion of such distribution to be designated as return of capital. Distributions received from REITs are generally recorded as dividend income and, if necessary, are reclassified annually in accordance with tax information provided by the underlying REITs. Distributions received for the Funds investments in Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs) may be comprised of both income and return of capital. The Funds record investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded.
Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.
Common expenses – Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the Funds and the other series of the Trust based on the relative net assets of each series, the number of series in the Trust, or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each series.
Options written/purchased – The Funds may utilize longer maturity options for stock replacement when and as price and volatility relationships become more favorable for options versus underlying stocks or for tax and liquidity management purposes. The Funds are authorized to write (sell) and purchase put and call options. The risk in writing a call option is that the Funds give up the opportunity to profit if the market price of the security increases. The risk in writing a put option is that the Funds may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in purchasing an option is that the Funds pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Funds also have the additional risk of being unable to enter into a closing transaction at an acceptable price if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Option contracts also involve the risk that they may not work as intended due to unanticipated developments in market conditions or other causes.
Foreign currency translation – Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in or expected to settle in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates on the following basis:
A. The fair values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated as of the close of the NYSE each day.
B. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the respective date of such transactions.
C. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from those caused by changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 1) purchases and sales of foreign currencies, 2) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and 3) the difference between the amounts of dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Funds books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Reported net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities that result from changes in exchange rates.
The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest. Such taxes are generally based on income and/or capital gains earned or repatriated. Taxes are accrued and applied to net investment income, net realized gains and unrealized appreciation as such income and/or gains are earned. Where available, the Funds will file for claims on foreign taxes withheld. Tax reclaims receivable, if any, are recorded based upon each Funds
25
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
interpretation of country specific taxation of accrued income and interest income, which may be subject to change due to changes in country-specific tax regulations regarding amounts reclaimable or each Funds interpretation of country-specific taxation of dividend income and related amounts reclaimable.
Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of change in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Distributions to shareholders – Each Fund distributes substantially all of its net income to shareholders on a monthly basis and its net capital gains to shareholders at least annually in December. The amount of such dividends and distributions is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The character of dividends paid to shareholders of the Funds for federal income tax purposes during the periods ended April 30, 2026 and October 31, 2025 was as follows:

Federal income tax – Each Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Qualification generally will relieve the Funds of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of their net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed in accordance with the Code.
In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also each Funds intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

The difference between the federal income tax cost of investments and the financial statement cost of investments are due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and GAAP. These book/tax differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to the tax deferral on losses on wash sales, partnership adjustments, options mark to market adjustments, and C-corp basis adjustments.
As of November 30, 2025, the Midstream Income ETF had short-term and long-term capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes, which may be carried forward indefinitely. These capital loss carryforwards are available to offset net realized capital gains in the current and future years, thereby reducing future taxable gains distributions, if any.

The amount and character of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Reclassifications are made to the Funds capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under current income tax regulations. These permanent differences that are credited or charged to Paid-in capital and Distributable earnings as of November 30, 2025 are primarily related to adjustments for publicly traded partnerships, return of capital distributions and/or redemptions in-kind.
As of November 30, 2025, the following adjustments were made:

The Funds recognize the tax benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not of being sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Funds tax positions for the current and open periods and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements. The Funds identify its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.
The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2026, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities:
The Funds are required to disclose the impact of offsetting assets and liabilities represented on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on its financial position for recognized assets and liabilities. These recognized assets and liabilities are financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement or meet the following right of setoff criteria: the amounts owed by the Funds to another party are determinable, the Funds have the right to set off the amounts owed with the amounts owed by the other party, the Funds intend to set off, and the Funds right of setoff is enforceable at law.
A fund is subject to various netting arrangements with select counterparties (Master Agreements or MNAs). Master Agreements govern the terms of certain transactions, and reduce the counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions by specifying credit protection mechanisms and providing standardization that improves legal certainty. Since different types of transactions have different mechanics and are sometimes traded out of different legal entities of a particular counterparty organization, each type of transaction may be covered by a different Master Agreement, resulting in the need for multiple agreements with a single counterparty. As the Master Agreements are specific to unique operations of different asset types, they allow a fund to close out and net its total exposure to a specific counterparty entity in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a specific counterparty entity.
Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at prearranged exposure levels. Under the Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold, which typically ranges from zero to $250,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. United States Treasury Securities and U.S. dollar cash are generally the preferred forms of collateral. Securities and cash pledged as collateral are reflected as assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either a component of investments at value (securities) or deposits due from counterparties (cash). Cash collateral received is not typically held in a segregated account and as such is reflected as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as deposits due to counterparties. The market value of any securities received as collateral is not reflected as a component of net asset value. A funds overall exposure to counterparty risk can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the relevant Master Agreement.

Certain derivative contracts are executed under either standardized netting agreements or, for exchange-traded derivatives, the relevant contracts for a particular exchange that contain enforceable netting provisions. A derivative netting arrangement creates an enforceable right of set-off that becomes effective and affects the realization of settlement on individual assets, liabilities and collateral amounts, only following a specified event of default or early termination. Default events may include the failure to make payments or deliver securities timely, material adverse changes in financial condition or insolvency, the breach of minimum regulatory capital requirements, or loss of license, charter or other legal authorization necessary to perform under the contract.
6. Capital Share Transactions
Only certain financial institutions such as registered broker-dealers and banks that have entered into agreements with the APs may acquire shares directly from the Funds and tender their shares for redemption directly to the Funds. Such purchases and redemptions are made at NAV per share and only in large blocks, or Creation Units, of shares. Purchases and redemptions directly with the Funds must follow the Funds procedures, which are described in the Funds Statement of Additional Information.
A creation transaction, which is subject to acceptance by the Distributor and the Funds, generally takes place when an AP deposits into the Funds a designated portfolio of securities (Deposit Securities) (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted) and a specified amount of cash approximating the holdings of the Funds in exchange for a specified number of Creation Units. The composition of such portfolio generally corresponds pro rata to the holdings of the Funds. However, the Funds may, in certain circumstances, offer Creation Units partially or solely for cash. Similarly, shares can be redeemed only in Creation Units, generally for a designated portfolio of securities (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted) held by the Funds and a specified amount of cash. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable. The prices at which
32
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
creations and redemptions occur are based on the next calculation of NAV after a creation or redemption order is received in an acceptable form under the AP agreement. Realized gains (losses) resulting from in-kind redemption of shares, if any, are reflected separately on the Statements of Operations.
The Funds charge APs standard creation and redemption transaction fees (Transaction Fees) to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. The standard creation and redemption transaction fees are set forth in the table below. The standard creation transaction fee is charged to the AP on the day such AP creates a Creation Unit, and is the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by the AP on the applicable business day. Similarly, the standard redemption transaction fee is charged to the AP on the day such AP redeems a Creation Unit, and is the same regardless of the number of Creation Units redeemed by the AP on the applicable business day. Creations and redemptions for cash (when cash creations and redemptions (in whole or in part) are available or specified) are also subject to an additional charge (up to the maximum amounts shown in the table below). This charge is intended to compensate for brokerage, tax, foreign exchange, execution, price movement and other costs and expenses related to cash transactions (which may, in certain instances, be based on a good faith estimate of transaction costs). For the period ended April 30, 2026, the Midstream Income ETF, Energy Income ETF and Income Opportunity ETF received $24,000, $16,500 and $5,400, respectively, in transaction fees.
The Transaction Fees for the Funds are listed in the table below:
| Maximum | ||||
| Additional Variable | ||||
| Fee for In-Kind and | Charge for Cash | |||
| Cash Purchases | Purchases * | |||
| Midstream Income ETF | $500 | 2.00% | ||
| Energy Income ETF | $500 | 2.00% | ||
| Income Opportunity ETF | $600 | 2.00% |
| * | As a percentage of the amount invested. |
7. Sector Risk
If the Funds have significant investments in the securities of issuers in industries within a particular business sector, any development affecting that sector will have a greater impact on the value of the net assets of the Funds than would be the case if the Funds did not have significant investments in that sector. In addition, this may increase the risk of loss of an investment in the Funds and increase the volatility of the Funds NAV per share. From time to time, circumstances may affect a particular sector and the companies within such sector. For instance, economic or market factors, regulation or deregulation, or other developments may negatively impact all companies in a particular sector and therefore the value of a Funds portfolio would be adversely affected. As of April 30, 2026, the Midstream Income ETF had 101.3% of the value of its net assets invested in securities in the Pipelines sector and the Energy Income ETF had 37.4% of the value of its net assets in securities in the Integrated Oil Companies sector.
8. Non-Diversification Risk
The Midstream Income ETF and Energy Income ETF are non-diversified funds. Because each Fund may invest in securities of a smaller number of issuers, each Fund may be more exposed to the risks associated with and developments affecting and individual issuer than a fund that invests more widely, which may, therefore, have a greater impact on each Funds performance.

9. Contingencies and Commitments
The Funds indemnify the Trusts officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
10. Subsequent Events
The Funds are required to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the date of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Funds are required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these financial statements and has noted no such events except for the following:

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement
The Board of Trustees (the Board), including the Independent Trustees voting separately, has reviewed and approved the continuance of the: (i) Investment Advisory Agreement with Westwood Management Corp. (the Adviser or Westwood) with respect to the Westwood Salient Enhanced Midstream Income ETF (Midstream Income ETF) and the Westwood Salient Enhanced Energy Income ETF (Energy Income ETF) (the Westwood Advisory Agreement) and (ii) Sub-Advisory Agreement between Westwood and Vident Advisors, LLC (d/b/a Vident Asset Management) (the Sub-Adviser or Vident) with respect to the Midstream Income ETF and the Energy Income ETF (the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement) for an additional one year term. The Midstream Income ETF and the Energy Income ETF are individually referred to as a Fund or the ETF and collectively referred to as the Funds or the ETFs. The Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement are collectively referred to as the Advisory Agreements. The Board approved the Advisory Agreements at a meeting held on January 26-27, 2026, at which all of the Trustees were present (the Meeting).
Prior to the Meeting, each of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser provided a response to a letter sent by the counsel to the Independent Trustees, on their behalf, requesting various information relevant to the Independent Trustees consideration of the Westwood Advisory Agreement and Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds. In approving the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees considered all information they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreements. The principal areas of review by the Independent Trustees were (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, (2) the Advisers experience and resources in monitoring the performance of other sub-advisers on Westwood-managed funds and the professional experience and the investment capabilities of the individuals at Vident who serve as portfolio managers of the Funds, (3) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser from the Advisers and Sub-Advisers relationship with the Funds, (4) the financial condition of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, (5) the fall out benefits derived by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser and their affiliates from their relationships with the Funds and (6) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether advisory fee levels reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of each Funds shareholders. The Independent Trustees evaluation of the quality of the Advisers and Sub-Advisers services also took into consideration their knowledge gained through presentations and reports from the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser over the course of the preceding year. The Independent Trustees analysis of these factors is set forth below.
Consideration of Approval of Westwood Advisory Agreement
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Board evaluated the level and depth of knowledge of Westwood, including the professional experience and qualifications of the firms senior personnel. In evaluating the quality of services provided by Westwood, the Board
35
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
took into account its familiarity with Westwoods senior management through Board meetings, discussions and reports during the preceding year. The Board also took into account Westwoods compliance policies and procedures based on discussion with Westwood and the Trusts Chief Compliance Officer (CCO). The quality of administrative and other services, including Westwoods role in coordinating the activities of each Funds other service providers, was also considered. The Board also considered Westwoods relationship with its affiliates and the resources available to them, as well as any potential conflicts of interest. The Board discussed the nature and extent of the services provided by Westwood including, without limitation, Westwoods continuous review, supervision and administration of the investment program for the Funds. The Board considered the qualifications and experience of Westwoods portfolio managers who are responsible for the day-to-day management of each Funds portfolio. The Board also considered Westwoods succession planning for senior personnel.
The Board considered Westwoods process for monitoring the Sub-Adviser, which includes an examination of both qualitative and quantitative elements of the Sub-Advisers organization, personnel, procedures, infrastructure and performance. The Board further considered that Westwood conducts periodic reviews of the Sub-Adviser. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by Westwood under the Westwood Advisory Agreement.
Advisory Fees and Expenses and Comparative Accounts
The Board compared the advisory fee and total expense ratio for the Funds with various comparative data, noting that the advisory fee for each Fund is included in each Funds unitary fee. In particular, the Board compared each Funds advisory fee and overall expense ratio to the median advisory fees and expense ratios for its custom peer group provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (Broadridge), an independent provider of investment company data. The Board noted Westwoods response in the Section 15(c) materials that there were no accounts or funds comparable to the Funds that were managed by Westwood. The Board also noted that the Funds are charged a unitary fee under the Westwood Advisory Agreement. The Board further noted that, under the unitary fee arrangement, each Fund pays Westwood a unitary fee from which Westwood pays the Funds other expenses, including the cost of sub-advisory, transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services and fees, if any, but excluding the fee payment under the Westwood Advisory Agreement and interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, if any, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, distribution and service fees pursuant to a Rule 12b-1 plan, if any, and extraordinary expenses, if any. Because each Fund pays a unitary fee, the Board determined that expense ratios were the most relevant comparative data point.
The Board noted that the expense ratio of 0.80% for the Midstream Income ETF and 0.85% for the Energy Income ETF, were in the first and third quartiles, respectively. The Board further noted that the Midstream Income ETFs expense ratio was below its peer group median and the Energy Income ETFs expense ratio was at the peer group median. The Board took into consideration Westwoods assertion that the unique aspects of each Funds investment strategy differentiated their fees from those of their peers.
The Board also compared the sub-advisory fees paid to the Sub-Adviser and the fees charged to the Sub-Advisers other client accounts. The Board noted that the sub-advisory fees under the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement were paid by the Adviser out of its respective advisory fees it receives from the Funds. The Board considered the amounts to be retained by the Adviser and the sub-advisory fees to be paid to the Sub-Adviser with respect to various services that they each provided to the Funds. The Board discussed the Advisers process for monitoring the performance of the Sub-Adviser, which included an examination of both qualitative and quantitative elements of the Sub-Advisers organization, personnel, procedures, investment discipline, infrastructure and performance. The Board considered that the Adviser conducts periodic compliance due diligence of the Sub-Adviser, during which the Adviser examines a wide variety of factors, such as the financial condition of the Sub-Adviser, the quality of the Sub-Advisers systems, the effectiveness of the Sub-Advisers disaster recovery programs, trade allocation and execution procedures, compliance with the Sub-Advisers policies and procedures, results of regulatory examinations and any other factors
36
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
that might affect the quality of services to be provided by the Sub-Adviser to the Funds. The Board noted that the Advisers compliance monitoring processes also includes quarterly reviews of compliance certifications, and that any issues arising from such certifications and the Advisers compliance reviews of the Sub-Adviser are reported to the Board.
Fund Performance
The Board also considered, among other data, each Funds performance results during certain periods ended October 31, 2025, and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about each Funds performance results, portfolio composition and investment strategies. The Board noted that the Midstream Income ETFs performance was in the second quartile for the one-year period and in the third quartile for the since inception period ended October 31, 2025, respectively, and above the peer group median for the one-year period compared to the Broadridge custom peer group for the same period. The Board noted that the Energy Income ETFs performance was in the fourth quartile for the one-year and since inception periods ended October 31, 2025, and below the peer group median for the one-year and since inception periods compared to the Broadridge custom peer group for the same periods. The Board also took into account the impact of current market conditions and their effect on each Funds performance.
Economies of Scale
The Board also considered the effect of each Funds growth and size on its performance and expenses. The Board considered the effective advisory fees under the Westwood Advisory Agreement and possible economies of scale that might be realized if the assets of the Funds increase. The Board noted that the advisory fee schedule for each Fund currently did not have breakpoints, and considered Westwoods assertion that adding breakpoints was not appropriate at this time. The Board noted that the structure of the advisory fee as a unitary fee would have the effect of limiting certain of each Funds operating expenses. The Board noted that the sub-advisory fee payable to each Fund under the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement is paid by the Adviser out of the advisory fee that it receives from each Fund.
Financial Condition of the Adviser and Adviser Profitability
Additionally, the Board took into consideration the financial condition and profitability of the Adviser and the direct and indirect benefits derived by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds. The information considered by the Board included operating profit margin information for each Fund and the Advisers business as a whole. The Board considered that the structure of the advisory fee as a unitary fee would have the effect of limiting certain of each Funds operating expenses. The Board reviewed the profitability of the Advisers relationship with the Funds both before and after tax expenses. The Board recognized that the Adviser should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services each provides to the Funds and the entrepreneurial risk that the Adviser assumes as investment adviser. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Advisers level of profitability, if any, from its relationship with the Funds was reasonable and not excessive. The Board also considered whether the Adviser has the financial wherewithal to continue to provide services to each Fund, noting its ongoing commitment to provide support and resources to the Funds as needed.
Fall-Out Benefits
The Board also noted that Westwood derives benefits to its reputation and other benefits from its association with the Funds. The Board recognized that Westwood should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services it provides to the Funds and the entrepreneurial risk that it assumes as investment adviser. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that Westwoods level of profitability, if any, from its relationship with the Funds, was reasonable and not excessive.
37
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
Consideration of Approval of Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Board considered information provided by Vident regarding the services provided by Vident to the Funds. The Board evaluated the level and depth of knowledge of Vident, including the professional experience and qualifications of the firms senior personnel. The Board also took into account Vidents compliance policies and procedures based on discussion with Vident and the Trusts CCO. The Board discussed the nature and extent of the services provided by Vident including, without limitation, Vidents portfolio management and trading services, daily monitoring of the Funds positions and variances against the model portfolio provided by Westwood, monitoring to adhere to investment guidelines, cash management, cash and holdings reconciliation, and review of creation and redemption file data. The Board considered the qualifications and experience of Vidents portfolio managers who are responsible for trading each Funds portfolio, as well as the qualifications of other individuals at Vident who provide services to the Funds. The Board also considered Vidents succession planning for the portfolio managers of the Funds. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by Vident under the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Sub-Advisory Fees and Expenses and Comparative Accounts
The Board considered that the Funds sub-advisory fees are paid by Westwood and not by the Funds. The Board also considered that each Fund pays an advisory fee to Westwood and that Westwood pays a sub-advisory fee to Vident out of the advisory fees it receives from each Fund. The Board also considered Vidents response in its Section 15(c) materials that it does not believe the other accounts managed by Vident would be considered similar in nature to the Funds to be appropriate for a fee comparison.
Fund Performance
The Board also considered, among other data, each Funds performance results during certain periods ended October 31, 2025, and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about each Funds performance results, portfolio composition and investment strategies. The Board noted that the Midstream Income ETFs performance was in the second quartile for the one-year period and in the third quartile for the since inception period ended October 31, 2025, respectively, and above the peer group median for the one-year period compared to the Broadridge custom peer group for the same period. The Board noted that the Energy Income ETFs performance was in the fourth quartile for the one-year and since inception periods ended October 31, 2025, and below the peer group median for the one-year and since inception periods compared to the Broadridge custom peer group for the same periods. The Board also took into account the impact of current market conditions and their effect on each Funds performance.
Economies of Scale
The Board also considered the effect of each Funds growth and size on its performance and expenses. The Board took into account the Funds sub-advisory fee structure and the fact that Westwood pays the sub-advisory fees out of the advisory fees it receives from the Funds. The Board also took into account the existence of breakpoints in the sub-advisory fee structure and the effect of such breakpoints on the Funds sub-advisory fees.
Financial Condition of the Sub-Adviser and Sub-Adviser Profitability
Additionally, the Board took into consideration the financial condition and profitability of Vident and its affiliates and the direct and indirect benefits derived by Vident and its affiliates from their relationship with the Funds. The Board noted that the sub-advisory fees under the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement are paid by Westwood out of the advisory fees it receives under the Westwood Advisory Agreement. As a consequence, the anticipated profitability to Vident of its relationship with the Funds was not a substantial factor in the Boards deliberations.
38
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
Fall-Out Benefits
The Board also noted that Vident derives benefits to its reputation and other benefits from its association with the Funds. The Board recognized that Vident should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services it provides to the Funds. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that Vidents level of profitability, if any, from its relationship with the Funds, was reasonable and not excessive.
In considering the renewal of each of the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single factor as controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Trustees evaluated all information available to them. The Board concluded the following: (a) Westwood and Vident each demonstrated that it possesses the capability and resources to perform the duties required of it under the Westwood Advisory Agreement and Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement, respectively; (b) Westwood and Vident each maintain an appropriate compliance program; (c) the overall performance of each Fund is satisfactory relative to the performance of funds with similar investment objectives and relevant indices; and (d) each Funds advisory and sub-advisory fees are reasonable in light of the services received from the Fund from Westwood and Vident and the other factors considered. Based on their conclusions, the Trustees determined with respect to each Fund that continuation of the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.
The Board of Trustees (the Board), including the Independent Trustees voting separately, has reviewed and approved the Westwood Enhanced Income Opportunity ETFs (the New Fund or the New ETF) Investment Advisory Agreement with Westwood Management Corp. (the Adviser or Westwood) for an initial two-year term (the Westwood Advisory Agreement) and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between Westwood and Vident Asset Management (the Sub-Adviser or Vident), on behalf of the Fund, for an initial two-year term (the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement). The Board approved the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement at a meeting held on October 20-21, 2025, at which all of the Trustees were present (the Meeting).
Prior to the Meeting, the Adviser and Sub-Adviser each provided a response to letters sent by the counsel to the Independent Trustees, on their behalf, requesting various information relevant to the Independent Trustees consideration of the Westwood Advisory Agreement and Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement with respect to the New ETF. In approving the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees considered all information they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The principal areas of review by the Independent Trustees were (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, (2) the Advisers experience and resources in monitoring the performance of other sub-advisers on Westwood-managed funds and the professional experience and the investment capabilities of the individuals at Vident who are expected to serve as portfolio managers of the New ETF, (3) the costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser from the Advisers and Sub-Advisers relationship with the New ETF, (4) the financial condition of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, (5) the fall out benefits to be derived by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser and their affiliates from their relationships with the New ETF and (6) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the New ETF grows and whether advisory fee levels reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of the New ETFs shareholders. The Independent Trustees evaluation of the quality of the Advisers and Sub-Advisers services also took into consideration their knowledge gained through presentations and reports from the Adviser and Sub-Adviser over the course of the preceding year for other funds and ETFs managed by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser. The Independent Trustees analysis of these factors is set forth below.
Consideration of Approval of Westwood Advisory Agreement
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Board evaluated the level and depth of knowledge of Westwood, including the professional experience and qualifications of senior personnel. In evaluating the quality of services to be provided by Westwood, the Board took
39
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
into account its familiarity with Westwoods senior management through Board meetings, discussions and reports during the preceding year. The Board also took into account Westwoods compliance policies and procedures based on discussion with Westwood and the Trusts Chief Compliance Officer (CCO). The quality of administrative and other services, including Westwoods role in coordinating the activities of the New ETFs other service providers, was also considered. The Board also considered Westwoods relationship with its affiliates and the resources available to them, as well as any potential conflicts of interest. The Board discussed the nature and extent of the services to be provided by Westwood including, without limitation, Westwoods provision of a continuous investment program for the New ETF. The Board considered the qualifications and experience of Westwoods portfolio managers who would be responsible for the day-to-day management of the New ETFs portfolio, as well as the qualifications of other individuals at Westwood anticipated to provide services to the New ETF. The Board also considered Westwoods succession planning for the portfolio managers of the New ETF.
The Board considered Westwoods process for monitoring the proposed Sub-Adviser, Vident, which would include an examination of both qualitative and quantitative elements of the Sub-Advisers organization, personnel, procedures, infrastructure and performance. The Board further considered that Westwood would conduct periodic reviews of the Sub-Adviser. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided to the New ETF by Westwood under the Westwood Advisory Agreement.
Advisory Fees and Expenses and Comparative Accounts
The Board compared the proposed advisory fee and total expense ratio for the New ETF with various comparative data. In particular, the Board compared the New ETFs proposed advisory fee and overall expense ratio to the median advisory fees and expense ratios for its custom peer group provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (Broadridge). The Board noted Westwoods response in the 15(c) materials that there were no accounts comparable to the New ETF that were managed by Westwood but that the New ETF was similar to certain Westwood mutual funds but that the New ETFs anticipated use of a covered call writing strategy was meaningfully different from the investment strategy employed by the Westwood mutual funds. The Board noted that the New ETF would be charged a unitary fee under the proposed Westwood Advisory Agreement. The Board further noted that, under the unitary fee arrangement, the New ETF would pay Westwood a unitary fee from which Westwood would pay the New ETFs other expenses, including the cost of sub-advisory, transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services and fees, if any, but excluding the fee payment under the Westwood Advisory Agreement and interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, if any, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, distribution and service fees pursuant to a Rule 12b-1 plan, if any, and extraordinary expenses, if any. The Board considered that, from the unitary fee for the New ETF, Westwood would pay the Sub-Adviser a proposed sub-advisory fee equal to 0.05% of the New ETFs first $100 million of average daily net assets; 0.04% of the New ETFs next $250 million of average daily net assets; and 0.02% of the New ETFs average daily net assets over $350 million (subject to a minimum of $35,000 per year per ETF on the first six Westwood-Vident-Managed ETFs that use the Sub-Adviser). The Board further considered that, under the proposed amended and restated sub-advisory agreement, Vident has agreed to cap its sub-advisory fees at $500,000 on the ETFs managed by Westwood and Sub-Advised by Vident, including the New ETF, subject to annual escalator defined as the prior years cumulative percentage increase of the United States Consumer Price Index - All Urban Consumers, U.S. City Average, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, United States Department of Labor (or its successor index) during the period beginning on the date of the prior fee adjustment. Because the New ETF will pay a unitary fee, the Board determined that expense ratios were the most relevant comparative data point.
In reviewing the comparison in expense ratios between the New ETF and comparable funds, the Board also considered the differences in types of funds being compared, the styles of investment management, and the nature of the investment strategies. The Board noted that the proposed expense ratio of 0.79% for the New ETF was in the fourth quartile. The Board further noted that the New ETFs expense ratio was above its peer group median. The Board took into consideration Westwoods assertion that the size of the New ETF and unique aspects of the New ETFs investment strategy differentiated its fees from those of its peers.
40
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
Fund Performance
As the New ETF had not yet commenced operations, the Board did not consider past performance. The Board noted the Advisers experience and resources in monitoring the performance of other sub-advisers, including Vident, on Westwood-managed funds.
Potential Economies of Scale
The Board also considered the effect of the New ETFs potential growth and size on its performance and expenses. The Board took into account managements discussion of the New ETFs advisory fee structure. The Board considered the proposed advisory fee under the Westwood Advisory Agreement and possible economies of scale that might be realized if the assets of the New ETF increases. The Board noted that the advisory fee schedule for the New ETF currently did not have breakpoints, and considered Westwoods assertion that adding breakpoints was not appropriate at this time. The Board noted that the structure of the advisory fee as a unitary fee would have the effect of limiting certain of the New ETFs operating expenses. The Board also considered the fact that, under the Westwood Advisory Agreement, the advisory fee payable to Westwood by the New ETF would be reduced by the total sub-advisory fee paid to the Sub-Adviser.
Financial Condition of the Adviser and Adviser Profitability
Additionally, the Board took into consideration the financial condition and anticipated profitability of Westwood and its affiliates and the anticipated direct and indirect benefits derived by Westwood and its affiliates from their relationship with the New ETF. The information considered by the Board included operating profit margin information for Westwoods business as a whole. The Board reviewed the anticipated profitability of Westwoods relationship with the New ETF both before and after tax expenses, and also considered whether Westwood has the financial wherewithal to provide services to the New ETF, noting Westwoods ongoing commitment to provide support and resources to the New ETF as needed.
Fall-Out Benefits
The Board also noted that Westwood would derive benefits to its reputation and other benefits from its association with the New ETF. The Board recognized that Westwood should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services it would provide to the New ETF and the entrepreneurial risk that it assumes as investment adviser. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that Westwoods level of profitability, if any, to be derived from its relationship with the New ETF was reasonable and not excessive.
Consideration of Approval of Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Board considered information provided by Vident regarding the services to be provided by Vident to the New ETF. The Board evaluated the level and depth of knowledge of Vident, including the professional experience and qualifications of senior personnel. The Board also took into account Vidents compliance policies and procedures based on discussion with Vident and the Trusts CCO. The Board discussed the nature and extent of the services to be provided by Vident including, without limitation, Vidents portfolio management and trading services, daily monitoring of the New ETFs positions and variances against the model portfolio provided by Westwood, monitoring to adhere to investment guidelines, cash management, cash and holdings reconciliation, and review of creation and redemption file data. The Board considered the qualifications and experience of Vidents portfolio managers who would be responsible for trading the New ETFs portfolio, as well as the qualifications of other individuals at Vident anticipated to provide services to the New ETF. The Board also considered Vidents succession planning for the portfolio managers of the New ETF. The Board then took into consideration Westwoods due diligence of Vident and Westwoods selection of Vident based on, as Westwood previously noted, Vidents reputation, comprehensive service offering, experience with Westwood, and competitive pricing. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with
41
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided to the New ETF by Vident under the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Sub-Advisory Fees and Expenses and Comparative Accounts
The Board considered that the sub-advisory fee would be paid by Westwood and not by the New ETF. The Board also considered that the New ETF would pay an advisory fee to Westwood and that Westwood would pay a sub-advisory fee to Vident out of the advisory fee it receives from the New ETF. The Board also considered Vidents response in its 15(c) materials that it does not believe the other accounts managed by Vident would be considered similar in nature to the New ETF to be appropriate for a fee comparison.
Fund Performance
As the New ETF had not yet commenced operations, the Board did not consider past performance. The Board considered the professional experience and the investment capabilities of the individuals at Vident who are expected to serve as portfolio managers to the New ETF.
Potential Economies of Scale
The Board also considered the effect of the New ETFs potential growth and size on its performance and expenses. The Board took into account the New ETFs sub-advisory fee structure and the fact that Westwood would pay the sub-advisory fees out of the advisory fees it receives from the New ETF. As a consequence, potential economies of scale was not a material factor in the Boards deliberations concerning the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Financial Condition of the Sub-Adviser and Sub-Adviser Profitability
Additionally, the Board took into consideration the financial condition and anticipated profitability of Vident and its affiliates and the anticipated direct and indirect benefits derived by Vident and its affiliates from their relationship with the New ETF. The Board noted that the sub-advisory fee under the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement would be paid by Westwood out of the advisory fee it would receive under the Westwood Advisory Agreement. As a consequence, the anticipated profitability to Vident of its relationship with the New ETF was not a substantial factor in the Boards deliberations.
Fall-Out Benefits
The Board also noted that Vident would derive benefits to its reputation and other benefits from its association with the New ETF. The Board recognized that Vident should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services it would provide to the New ETF. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that Vidents level of profitability, if any, to be derived from its relationship with the New ETF was reasonable and not excessive.
In considering the approvals of the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single factor as controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Trustees evaluated all information available to them. The Board concluded the following: (a) Westwood and Vident each demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement, respectively; (b) Westwood and Vident maintain appropriate compliance programs; and (c) the New ETFs advisory fee is reasonable in light of the services to be provided and the other factors considered. Based on their conclusions, the Trustees determined with respect to the New ETF that approval of the Westwood Advisory Agreement and the Vident Sub-Advisory Agreement is in the best interests of the New ETF and its shareholders.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of the Funds significant accounting policies. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The Funds follow accounting and reporting guidance under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, including Accounting Standard Update 2013-08.
Segment reporting – The management team of the Adviser and Salient Advisors (where applicable) act as the Funds chief operating decision makers (CODM). The CODMs have determined that each Fund has a single operating segment as the CODMs monitor the operating results of each Fund as a whole and each Funds long-term strategic asset allocation is pre-determined in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the Adviser and Salient Advisors, where applicable. The CODMs allocate resources and assess performance based on the operating results of each Fund, which is consistent with the results presented in each Funds Schedules of Investments, Statements of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights.
Accounting Pronouncement — In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 (ASU 2023-09), Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Fund management concluded there is no material impact on the Funds financial statements.
Securities valuation – Each Fund values its portfolio securities at market value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each business day the NYSE is open for business. The Funds value their listed securities on the basis of the securitys last sale price on the securitys primary exchange, if available, otherwise at the exchanges most recently quoted mean price. NASDAQ-listed securities are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Investments representing shares of other open-end investment companies, other than exchange-traded funds (ETFs), if any, but including money market funds, are valued at their net asset value (NAV) as reported by such companies. Option contracts are valued at the closing price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded; if no closing price is available at the time of valuation, the option will be valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices for that day. Future contracts are valued at the final settlement price, or, if a settled price is not available, at the last sale price as of the close of regular trading on the primary exchange on which they are traded. When using a quoted price and when the market is considered active, these securities will be classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy (see below). Fixed income securities are generally valued using prices provided by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the Board). The independent pricing service uses information with respect to transactions in bonds, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities, and various relationships between securities in determining these prices. Total return swaps are valued as the change in the value of the underlying
77
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
security plus/minus the accrued income payment based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or some other form of indices on the notional amount. In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, the Funds value their securities and other assets at fair value as determined by the Adviser and Salient Advisors, as the Funds valuation designees, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used. Unavailable or unreliable market quotes may be due to the following factors: a substantial bid-ask spread; infrequent sales resulting in stale prices; insufficient trading volume; small trade sizes; a temporary lapse in any reliable pricing source; and actions of the securities or futures markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading. As a result, the prices of securities used to calculate each Funds NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Securities traded on foreign exchanges, if any, are fair valued by an independent pricing service and translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing service.
GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Funds investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| ● | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
| ● | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs |
| ● | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs |
Fixed income securities held by the Funds are classified as Level 2 since values are based on prices provided by an independent pricing service that utilizes various other significant observable inputs including bid and ask quotations, prices of similar securities, and interest rates, among other factors.
For most securities, both the latest transaction prices and adjustments are furnished by independent pricing services. The Adviser and Salient Advisors as the Funds valuation designee is responsible for carrying out pricing and valuation duties in accordance with the Advisers Valuation Procedures (the Procedures). The Funds value all other securities and assets for which market quotations are unavailable or unreliable at their fair value determined in good faith.
The inputs or methods used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Share valuation – The NAV per share of each class of each Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of the assets attributable to that class, less liabilities attributable to that class, by the number of shares outstanding of that class. The offering price and redemption price per share of each class of each Fund is equal to the NAV per share of such class except for A Class Shares. A Class Shares have a front-end sales charge, which is deducted from your purchase price when you buy your shares.
Investment income – Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the security received. Interest income is accrued as earned. The Funds may invest in real estate investment trusts (REITs) that pay distributions to their shareholders based on available funds from operations. It is common for these distributions to exceed the REITs taxable earnings and profits resulting in the excess portion of such distribution to be designated as return of capital. Distributions received from REITs are generally recorded as dividend income and, if necessary, are reclassified annually in accordance with tax information provided by the underlying REITs. Distributions received for each Funds investments in Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs) may be comprised of both income and return of capital. Each Fund records investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded. Discounts and premiums on fixed income securities, if any, are amortized using the effective interest method.
Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.
Allocation among Classes – Investment income earned, realized capital gains and losses, and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are allocated daily to each Class of a Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of that Fund. Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the Class incurring the expense. Common expenses which are not attributable to a specific Class are allocated daily to each Class of shares of a Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of that Fund. Distribution fees are class specific expenses.
Common expenses – Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the Funds and the other series of the Trust based on the relative net assets of each series, the number of series in the Trust, or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each series.
Futures contracts – A Fund may use futures contracts for tactical hedging purposes as well as to enhance a Funds returns. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. When a Fund purchases or sells a futures contract, no price is paid to or received by a Fund. Instead, a Fund is required to deposit in a segregated asset account an amount of cash or qualifying securities. This is called
83
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
the initial margin deposit. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by a Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying asset. A Fund recognizes an unrealized gain or loss equal to the daily valuation margin. If market conditions move unexpectedly, a Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. The margin deposits for futures contracts and the variation receivable/payable are reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Options written/purchased – The Funds may utilize longer maturity options for stock replacement when and as price and volatility relationships become more favorable for options versus underlying stocks or for tax and liquidity management purposes. The Funds are authorized to write (sell) and purchase put and call options. The risk in writing a call option is that the Funds give up the opportunity to profit if the market price of the security increases. The risk in writing a put option is that the Funds may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in purchasing an option is that the Funds pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Funds also have the additional risk of being unable to enter into a closing transaction at an acceptable price if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Option contracts also involve the risk that they may not work as intended due to unanticipated developments in market conditions or other causes.
Swap contracts – The Funds are authorized to enter into swap contracts for the purposes of managing the Funds interest rate duration, yield curve exposure and yield spread sensitivity. Swaps are a two-party contract in which the seller (buyer) will pay to the buyer (seller) the difference between the current value of a security and its value at the time the contract was entered. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by a Fund with another party of their respective commitment to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments) with respect to a notional amount of principal. Swap contracts are privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market (OTC Swaps) or may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered commodities exchange (Centrally Cleared Swaps).
Total return swaps allow an investor to benefit from the cash flow without ever actually owning the underlying security. The receiver must pay any decline in value to the payer at the end of the total return swaps. However, the investor does not need to make a payment if there is no decline in price. Payments can be made on various indices, bonds (i.e. mortgage backed securities, bank debt and corporate), loans or commodities. The value of a total return swap is equal to the change in value of the underlying asset versus the accrued income payment based on SOFR or some other form of indices on the notional amount. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or loss. A Fund could be exposed to credit or market risk due to unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates or if the counterparty defaults on its obligation to perform. Risk of loss may exceed amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Interest rate and Total Return swap contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after a Funds portfolio. In connection with swap agreements, securities may be set aside as collateral by a Funds custodian.
Periodic payments made or received are recorded as realized gains or losses. The Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect, if any, unrealized appreciation or depreciation and accrued periodic payments for swap contracts the Funds may have open.
Entering into swap contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these contracts, that the counterparty to the contract may default on its obligation to perform and that there may be unfavorable changes in market conditions or fluctuations in interest rates. Swaps outstanding at year end, if any, are listed on the Schedules of Investments. Refer to each Funds Schedule of Investments for details regarding open swap contracts, if applicable.
There is the risk that the counterparty refuses to continue to enter into swap agreements with the Funds in the future, or requires increased fees, which could impair the Funds ability to achieve their investment objective. A counterparty may also increase its collateral requirements, which may limit the Funds ability to use leverage and reduce investment returns. In addition, if the Funds cannot locate a counterparty willing to enter into transactions with the Funds, they will not be able to implement their investment strategy.

Foreign currency translation – Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in or expected to settle in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates on the following basis:
| A. | The fair values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated as of the close of the NYSE each day. |
| B. | Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the respective date of such transactions. |
| C. | The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from those caused by changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments. |
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 1) purchases and sales of foreign currencies, 2) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and 3) the difference between the amounts of dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Funds books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Reported net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities that result from changes in exchange rates.
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes related to foreign income received, capital gain on the sale of securities and certain foreign currency transactions (a portion of which may be reclaimable). All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which a Fund invests.
The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest. Such taxes are generally based on income and/or capital gains earned or repatriated. Taxes are accrued and applied to net investment income, net realized gains and unrealized appreciation as such income and/or gains are earned. Where available, the Funds will file for claims on foreign taxes withheld. Tax reclaims receivable, if any, are recorded based upon each Funds interpretation of country specific taxation of accrued income and interest income, which may be subject to cange due to changes in country-specific tax regulations regarding amounts reclaimable or each Funds interpretation of country-specific taxation of dividend income and related amounts reclaimable.
Forward foreign currency contracts – The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to offset the exposure to foreign currency. All foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market daily at the applicable translation rates, resulting in unrealized gains or losses. Realized and unrealized gains or losses from transactions in foreign contracts, if any, will be included on the Funds Statements of Operations. Risks associated with these contracts include the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
Borrowing costs – From time to time, the Funds may have an overdrawn cash balance at the custodian due to redemptions or market movements. When this occurs, the Funds will incur borrowing costs charged by the custodian. Borrowing costs for each Fund, if any, for the six months ended April 30, 2026 can be found on the Statements of Operations.
ReFlow transactions – Certain Funds may participate in ReFlow, a program designed to provide an alternative liquidity source for mutual funds experiencing redemptions of their shares. In order to pay cash to shareholders who redeem their shares on a given day, a mutual fund typically must hold cash in its portfolio, liquidate portfolio securities, or borrow money, all of which impose certain costs on the fund. ReFlow provides participating mutual funds with another source of cash by standing ready to purchase shares from a fund equal to the amount of the funds net redemptions on a given day. ReFlow then generally redeems those shares when the fund experiences net sales. In return for this service, the fund will pay a fee to ReFlow at a rate determined by a daily auction with other participating mutual funds. The costs to a Fund for participating in ReFlow are generally expected to be influenced

| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
by and comparable to the cost of other sources of liquidity, such as the Funds short-term lending arrangements or the costs of selling portfolio securities to meet redemptions. ReFlow is prohibited from acquiring more than 2.95% of the total net assets of any Fund. The Board has adopted certain procedures to govern the Funds participation in ReFlow. During the six months ended April 30, 2026, no ReFlow fees were incurred.
Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of change in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Redemption fees – Prior to February 28, 2026, in an effort to discourage short-term trading and defray costs incurred by shareholders as a result of short-term trading, the Alternative Income Fund charged a 1.00% redemption fee on redemptions (including exchanges) of shares that had been held for less than 30 days. The redemption fee was deducted from the Funds sale proceeds and could not be paid separately, and any proceeds of the fee were credited to the assets of the Fund from which the redemption was made. The fee did not apply to shares purchased with reinvested dividends or distributions. Redemption fees collected, if any, are shown on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Effective February 28, 2026, the Alternative Income Fund eliminated charging the 1.00% redemption fee.
Distributions to shareholders – Value, SMidCap, and SmallCap Funds distribute to shareholders any net investment income dividends and net realized capital gains distributions, if any, at least once each year. Income Opportunity and Alternative Income Funds distribute to shareholders any net investment income dividends quarterly up until June 30, 2025 and then switched to monthly, and net realized capital gains distributions, if any, at least once each year. Multi-Asset Income Fund distributes to shareholders any net investment income dividends monthly and net realized capital gains distributions, if any, at least once each year. MLP & Energy Infrastructure and Real Estate Income Funds distribute substantially all of their net income to shareholders on a quarterly basis and their net capital gains to shareholders at least annually in December. Tactical Growth and Tactical Plus Funds distribute to shareholders any net investment income and net realized capital gains annually in December. The amount of such dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The character of dividends paid to shareholders of the Funds for federal income tax purposes during the periods ended April 30, 2026 and October 31, 2025 was as follows:

Federal income tax – Each Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Qualification generally will relieve the Funds of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of their net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed in accordance with the Code.
In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also each Funds intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

The difference between the federal income tax cost of investments and the financial statement cost of investments are due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and GAAP. These book/tax differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, constructive dividend income, partnership adjustments, straddle loss deferral, contingent debt adjustment, perpetual bond and options, future and swap mark to market adjustments.
As of October 31, 2025, the following Funds had short-term and long-term capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes, which may be carried forward indefinitely. These capital loss carryforwards are available to

The Funds recognize the tax benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not of being sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed each Funds tax positions for the current and all open tax years (generally, three years) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.
The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. During the six months ended April 30, 2026, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
In order to meet the distribution requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and maintain regulated investment company status, the MLP & Energy Infrastructure Fund paid a deficiency dividend, as such term is defined by Section 860(f) of the Code, to the MLP & Energy Infrastructure Funds shareholders totaling $5,648,856 from ordinary income on July 12, 2023. The Adviser reimbursed the MLP & Energy Infrastructure Fund in the amount of $32,497 for the amount of excise tax associated with the under-distribution. An estimated amount of $300,000 is accrued in the MLP & Energy Infrastructure Fund to cover any additional interest and penalties that may still be charged. The Adviser has committed to reimbursing the MLP & Energy Infrastructure Fund for this expense once the final amount is known and has $300,000 accrued in the Fund to cover the estimated amount.

During the six months ended April 30, 2026, the Income Opportunity, Multi-Asset Income, and MLP & Energy Infrastructure Funds reduced investment advisory fees by $15,879, $359 and $257,947, respectively.
The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and reimburse expenses of the Multi-Asset Income Fund, and Alternative Income Fund in order to keep net operating expenses (excluding management fees, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, Rule 12b-1 distribution fees (if any), administrative servicing fees (if any), acquired fund fees and expenses, other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and extraordinary expenses (collectively, excluded expenses) from exceeding the Funds average daily net assets as follows:

| * | In connection with the Advisers Sensible Fees™ framework, for its services to each share class of Multi-Asset Income and Alternative Income Funds, the Adviser is entitled to a management fee, which consists of a base fee (the Base Fee) and a positive or negative performance adjustment (the Performance Adjustment) based on whether , and to what extent, the investment performance of each share class of each Fund exceeds, or is exceeded by, the performance of an index hurdle (the Index Hurdle) over the 12-month period from November 1 of each year through October 31 of the following year (the Performance Period). For each share class of each Fund, the Base Fee and Performance Adjustment are each calculated and accrued daily based on the average daily net assets of the share class during the Performance Period. |
| (a) | The Base Fee is an annual rate of 0.38%. The Index Hurdle is the Blended 80/20 Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index/S&P 500® Index plus 1.00%. The Performance Adjustment is calculated according to a schedule that adds or subtracts 0.0032% of the share classs average daily net assets for each 0.01% by which the performance of the share class exceeds or lags the performance of the Index Hurdle over the Performance Period. The maximum Performance Adjustment (positive or negative) will not exceed an annual rate of +/- 0.32% of the share classs average daily net assets during the Performance Period, which would occur when the performance of the share class exceeds, or is exceeded by, the performance of the Index Hurdle by 1.00% over the Performance Period. Accordingly, the management fee will range from a minimum annual rate of 0.06% to a maximum annual rate of 0.70%. |
| (b) | The Base Fee is an annual rate of 0.53%. The Index Hurdle is the FTSE 1-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index plus 2.00%. The Performance Adjustment is calculated according to a schedule that adds or subtracts 0.0016% of the share classs average daily net assets for each 0.01% by which the performance of the share class exceeds or lags the performance of the Index Hurdle over the Performance Period. The maximum Performance Adjustment (positive or negative) will not exceed an annual rate of +/- 0.32% of the share classs average daily net assets during the Performance Period, which would occur when the performance of the share class exceeds, or is exceeded by, the performance of the Index Hurdle by 2.00% over the Performance Period. Accordingly, the management fee will range from a minimum annual rate of 0.21% to a maximum annual rate of 0.85%. |
Under the terms of the ELA, investment management fee reductions and expense reimbursements by the Adviser are subject to repayment by the Funds for a period of three years after the date on which such fees and expenses were incurred or waived, provided that the repayments do not cause total annual fund operating expenses (exclusive of such reductions and reimbursements) to exceed (i) the expense limitation then in effect, if any, and (ii) the expense limitation in effect at the time the expenses to be repaid were incurred. Fee waivers/expense reimbursements for the Predecessor Funds prior to the Reorganization on November 1, 2021 are not subject to recoupment by the Adviser. The prior 0.25% contractual management fee waiver for Real Estate Income Fund is not subject to recoupment. As of April 30, 2026, the Adviser may seek repayment of investment management fee reductions and expense reimbursements no later than the dates below:

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities:
Alternative Income, MLP & Energy Infrastructure, Real Estate Income, Tactical Growth, and Tactical Plus Funds are required to disclose the impact of offsetting assets and liabilities represented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on its financial position for recognized assets and liabilities. These recognized assets and liabilities are financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement or meet the following right of setoff criteria: the amounts owed by these Funds to another party are determinable, the Funds have the right to set off the amounts owed with the amounts owed by the other party, the Funds intend to set off, and the Funds right of setoff is enforceable at law.
A fund is subject to various netting arrangements with select counterparties (Master Agreements or MNAs). Master Agreements govern the terms of certain transactions and reduce the counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions by specifying credit protection mechanisms and providing standardization that improves legal certainty. Since different types of transactions have different mechanics and are sometimes traded out of different legal entities of a particular counterparty organization, each type of transaction may be covered by a different Master Agreement, resulting in the need for multiple agreements with a single counterparty. As the Master Agreements are specific to unique operations of different asset types, they allow a fund to close out and net its total exposure to a specific counterparty entity in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a specific counterparty entity.
Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold, which typically ranges from zero to $250,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. United States Treasury Securities and U.S. dollar cash are generally the preferred forms of collateral. Securities and cash pledged as collateral are reflected as assets in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either a component of investments at value (securities) or deposits due from counterparties (cash). Cash collateral received is not typically held in a segregated account and as such is reflected as a liability in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as deposits due to counterparties. The market value of any securities received as collateral is not reflected as a component of net asset value. A funds overall exposure to counterparty risk can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the relevant Master Agreement.
102
| WESTWOOD FUNDS |
Customer account agreements and related addendums govern cleared derivatives transactions such as futures, options on futures, and cleared Over The Counter (OTC) derivatives. Cleared derivative transactions require posting of initial margin as determined by each relevant clearing agency which is segregated at a broker account registered with the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), or the applicable regulator. In the U.S., counterparty risk is believed to be reduced as creditors of the futures broker do not have claim to fund assets in the segregated account. Additionally, portability of exposure in the event of default further reduces risk to the funds. Variation margin, or changes in market value, are exchanged daily, but generally may not be netted between futures and cleared OTC derivatives.
International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes (ISDA Master Agreements) govern OTC financial derivative transactions entered into by a fund and select counterparties. ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral and events of default or termination. Events of termination include conditions that may entitle counterparties to elect to terminate early and cause settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement. Any election to terminate early could be material to the financial statements. In limited circumstances, the ISDA Master Agreement may contain additional provisions that add additional counterparty protection beyond coverage of existing daily exposure if the counterparty has a decline in credit quality below a predefined level. These amounts, if any, may be segregated with a third party custodian.

Certain derivative contracts are executed under either standardized netting agreements or, for exchange-traded derivatives, the relevant contracts for a particular exchange that contain enforceable netting provisions. A derivative netting arrangement creates an enforceable right of set-off that becomes effective and affects the realization of settlement on individual assets, liabilities and collateral amounts, only following a specified event of default or early

termination. Default events may include the failure to make payments or deliver securities timely, material adverse changes in financial condition or insolvency, the breach of minimum regulatory capital requirements, or loss of license, charter or other legal authorization necessary to perform under the contract.
6. Investments in Money Market Funds
In order to maintain sufficient liquidity to implement investment strategies, or for temporary defensive purposes, the Funds may at times invest a significant portion of their assets in shares of money market funds. As of April 30, 2025, Tactical Growth Fund and Tactical Plus Fund had 44.2% and 68.2%, respectively, of the value of its net assets invested in shares of a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act. The annual report, along with the report of the independent registered public accounting firm is included in the money market funds N-CSR available at www.sec.gov. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency, entity or person. While investor losses in money market funds have been rare, they are possible. The Funds, as investors in money market funds, indirectly bear the fees and expenses of those funds, which are in addition to the fees and expenses of the respective Fund.
7. Certain Investments and Risks
Below are summaries of some, but not all, of the principal risks of investing in one or more of the Funds, each of which could adversely affect a Funds NAV, yield and total return. Each risk listed below does not necessarily apply to each Fund, and you should read each Funds prospectus carefully for a description of the principal risks associated with investing in a particular Fund.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH LOWER RATE DEBT SECURITIES
Multi-Asset Income Fund invests substantially all of its assets in high yield, or junk, bonds, and such investments represent highly speculative securities that are usually issued by smaller, less creditworthy and/or highly leveraged (indebted) companies. Compared with investment-grade bonds, high yield bonds are considered to carry a greater degree of risk and are considered to be less likely to make payments of interest and principal. In particular, lower-quality high yield bonds (rated CCC, CC, C, or unrated securities judged to be of comparable quality) are subject to a greater degree of credit risk than higher-quality high yield bonds and may be near default. High yield bonds rated D are in default. Market developments and the financial and business conditions of the corporation issuing these securities generally influence their price and liquidity more than changes in interest rates, when compared to investment-grade debt securities. In addition, insufficient liquidity in the non-investment grade bond market may make it more difficult to dispose of non-investment grade bonds and may cause the Fund to experience sudden and substantial price declines.
SECTOR RISK
If a Fund has significant investments in the securities of issuers in industries within a particular business sector, any development affecting that sector will have a greater impact on the value of the net assets of the Fund than would be the case if the Fund did not have significant investments in that sector. In addition, this may increase the risk of loss of an investment in the Fund and increase the volatility of the Funds NAV per share. From time to time, circumstances may affect a particular sector and the companies within such sector. For instance, economic or market factors, regulation or deregulation, or other developments may negatively impact all companies in a particular sector and therefore the value of a Funds portfolio would be adversely affected. As of April 30, 2026, Alternative Income Fund had 31.6% of the value of its net assets invested in securities in the Technology sector, and Real Estate Income Fund had 88.4% of the value of its net assets invested in securities in the Real Estate sector.

8. Contingencies and Commitments
The Funds indemnify the Trusts officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
9. In-Kind Transactions
During the six months ended April 30, 2026, there were no redeemed shares of beneficial interest in exchange for securities.
10. Subsequent Events
The Funds are required to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the date of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Funds are required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these financial statements and has noted the following:
