Example: The following example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other funds. This example does not take into account customary brokerage commissions that you pay when purchasing or selling Shares of the Fund in the secondary market. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then hold or sell all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be: 51 160 Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund's performance. This is a new fund and does not yet have a portfolio turnover rate to disclose. PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) that seeks capital appreciation by gaining economic exposure to MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies (as defined below). Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies and/or derivative instruments that provide economic exposure to MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund’s investment adviser, Global X Management Company LLC (the “Adviser”), primarily considers MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies for investment based on their inclusion in the Akros MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Index (the “Reference Index”). However, the Fund will not seek to replicate the Reference Index, as the Adviser actively manages the Fund and exercises full investment discretion in constructing and managing the Fund’s portfolio. For example, to the extent consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies, the Adviser may, in its sole discretion and among other things: (i) determine whether it is more favorable for the Fund to obtain exposure to a security in the Reference Index directly or synthetically; (ii) reallocate the Fund’s portfolio holdings more frequently than the Reference Index is rebalanced when the Adviser believes doing so is in the Fund’s interest; and (iii) invest in securities not currently included in the Reference Index to the extent necessary for the Fund’s portfolio to comply with applicable regulatory requirements. In addition, the Fund may also invest up to 100% of the Fund’s assets in cash and cash equivalents and may also invest in short-term U.S. Treasury securities, money market funds, and/or short-term bonds or ETFs, including the Global X 1-3 Month T-Bill ETF, a passively managed </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">ETF and affiliate of the Fund, during other than normal market conditions or to satisfy regulatory diversification and/or collateral requirements.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Generally, the Adviser will use the Reference Index’s criteria to guide its investment decisions but retains sole discretion to buy or sell securities before such securities are added to, or removed from, the Reference Index through its scheduled rebalancing and reconstitution process. For example, if the Adviser receives new information about an existing portfolio company or identifies an emerging MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Company after the Reference Index’s most recent rebalancing and reconstitution, the Adviser may, in its sole discretion, trade the relevant securities before the Reference Index’s next rebalancing and reconstitution. Such information may include developments that, in the Adviser’s judgment, negatively affect a portfolio company’s outlook or present an opportunity to add a new holding. Accordingly, the Fund may sell portfolio holdings of a company that has experienced an adverse change in its business circumstances or invest in a company that the Adviser determines now qualifies as an MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Company, before the Reference Index reflects such developments. The Adviser actively manages the Fund and may, in its sole discretion, invest in companies that it independently determines qualify as MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies. As a result of the Adviser’s active management, there may be periods when the Fund’s holdings and performance deviate significantly from those of the Reference Index.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund expects to gain economic exposure to MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies, either individually or in the aggregate, through swap agreements and other derivative instruments. The Fund expects to enter into one or more swap agreements with financial institutions whereby the Fund and the financial institution will agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies, either individually or in the aggregate. The Fund’s use of swap agreements and other derivative instruments is designed to allow the Fund to gain efficient exposure to MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies in circumstances where direct investment may be impractical or involve higher transaction costs, including as a result of local market access requirements, foreign ownership restrictions, tax considerations, or liquidity constraints. For purposes of compliance with the Fund’s 80% investment policy, derivative instruments will be valued at their notional value. The notional value of a derivative instrument represents the total dollar value of exposure the derivative has to the underlying asset.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Reference Index is owned and developed by Akros Technologies, Inc.

Newly listed securities may be considered for inclusion subject to certain criteria related to trading history, number of days traded and market capitalization, determined by the Index Provider.

As of August 20, 2026, companies must have a market capitalization of at least $250 million and a 3-month average daily trading value of at least $1 million to be considered for inclusion.

An MLCC Company is a company that manufactures multilayer ceramic capacitors. Electronic Components Companies are companies principally engaged in manufacturing capacitors (multilayer ceramic, aluminum electrolytic, film, tantalum and polymer, silicon, and supercapacitor), chip resistors, inductors and coils, signal transformers, and circuit-protection components. In constructing the Reference Index, the Index Provider analyzes industries and business segments within the Akros Industry Classification System (“AICS”) whose primary classification falls within “Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing” or “Electrical Equipment, Appliance, and Component Manufacturing,” together with companies whose secondary classification is “Capacitor, Resistor, Coil, Transformer, and Other Inductor Manufacturing,” as defined by the Index Provider.

The Fund concentrates its investments (i.e., holds 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Reference Index is concentrated. As of August 20, 2026, the Reference Index was concentrated in the electronic equipment, instruments and components industry. The Fund is classified as “non-diversified,” which means it may invest a larger percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. As with any investment, you could lose all or part of your investment in the Fund, and the Fund's performance could trail that of other investments. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency, the Adviser or any of its affiliates. <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Active Management Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund is actively managed using proprietary investment strategies and processes.

Depositary receipts are generally subject to the same risks associated with direct investments in the securities of foreign companies.

Derivatives (e.g., options, futures contracts, forwards, swaps) are instruments the value of which is derived from that of other assets, rates, or indices. Derivatives can be more sensitive to changes in interest rates or to sudden fluctuations in market prices than conventional securities, which can result in greater losses for the Fund. There is the risk of imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative and that of the asset underlying the derivative. Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks including counterparty, liquidity, interest rate, market, credit and management risks, as well as the risk of improper valuation. Certain derivatives are subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations. Derivatives are usually traded on margin, which may subject the Fund to margin calls. Margin calls may force the Fund to liquidate assets. Further, the market for certain derivatives may become illiquid under adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer. If the Fund needed to sell a large block of illiquid securities to meet shareholder redemption request or to raise cash, these sales could further reduce the securities’ prices and adversely affect performance of the Fund. </span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Equity Securities Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Equity securities are subject to changes in value, and their values may be more volatile than other asset classes, as a result of a company’s business performance, investor perceptions, stock market trends and general economic conditions.</span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">ETF Investment Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund is subject to the same risks as underlying ETFs in which it may invest, including: that the underlying ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or discount to NAV; that an underlying ETF may experience a lack of liquidity that can result in greater volatility than its underlying securities; that an active trading market for an underlying ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained; that trading in an underlying ETF’s shares may be halted in certain circumstances; and that an underlying ETF may fail to achieve its investment objective, which may adversely affect the value of the Fund’s investment in the underlying ETF and the overall performance of the Fund.

MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies may be subject to rapid changes in technology, intense competition, government regulation and evolving regulatory requirements, and obsolescence risk. Securities of such companies may be subject to greater price volatility than securities of companies involved in other business activities, particularly over the short term, due to competitive pressures, cyclical demand patterns, changes in the regulatory environment, and shifts in supply and demand dynamics. <br/><br/>MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies may be dependent upon a limited number of large customers, particularly original equipment manufacturers and contract electronics manufacturers, and the loss of, or a significant reduction in orders from, any such customer could have a disproportionate impact on revenues. Businesses in this industry also face risks from fluctuating raw material prices, shortages of critical inputs such as semiconductors and rare earth elements, and reliance on contract manufacturers or overseas suppliers. Additionally, the growth and profitability of MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies may be contingent upon the broader adoption of related technology and end-products. A slowdown or disruption in the growth of related sectors, or a shift in industry standards, supply chain configurations, or trade policies—including tariffs, export controls, or restrictions on the sourcing of critical raw materials—could materially and adversely affect the revenues and profitability of MLCC &amp; Electronic Components Companies in which the Fund invests. Certain companies included in the Fund’s portfolio may be engaged in other lines of business unrelated to the development of MLCC and Electronic Components, and these lines of business could adversely affect their operating results despite a company’s possible success in activities linked to MLCC and Electronic Components lines of business. <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Capitalization Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Investing in issuers within the same market capitalization category carries the risk that the category may be out of favor due to current market conditions or investor sentiment.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Large-Capitalization Companies Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Large-capitalization companies may adapt more slowly to new competitive challenges and changing market conditions than smaller capitalization companies.

As such, the Fund may be required to sell portfolio securities in order to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds. As a result, an investment in the Fund may be less tax-efficient than an investment in a more conventional ETF. Moreover, cash transactions may have to be carried out over several days if the securities market is relatively illiquid and may involve the Fund recognizing a capital gain and/or incurring considerable brokerage fees and taxes. These factors may result in wider spreads between the bid and the offered prices of the Fund’s Shares than for more conventional ETFs. Additionally, to the extent that brokerage or other costs are costs or taxable gains or losses that the Fund might not offset by transaction fees, such costs may be borne by the Fund and result in a decrease in the value of the Fund.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Counterparty Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Counterparty risk is the risk that a counterparty to a swap contract or other similar investment instrument may be unwilling or unable to make timely payments or otherwise meet its contractual obligations. A counterparty’s failure to fulfill its contractual obligations, whether due to financial insolvency or operational constraints, could result in substantial losses for the Fund or negatively impact Fund performance. In such an instance, the Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery, may obtain only a limited recovery, or may obtain no recovery at all. Even if the counterparty does not default, any perception of heightened counterparty risk could impair the liquidity and valuation of the investments held by the Fund. There may be limited counterparties available and the Fund’s reliance on a limited number of counterparties for these transactions may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty risk. Specifically, the Fund may have sole or substantial exposure to one counterparty, which may result in the Fund being more susceptible to concentrated counterparty risk. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties will be willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund, which may cause the Fund to experience difficulty in purchasing or selling certain instruments in a timely manner. If the Fund is unable to obtain the desired exposure from counterparties, or can do so only on unfavorable terms, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective, may be unable to rebalance its portfolio as intended, or may experience increased costs, any of which could result in significant losses to the Fund or negatively impact Fund performance.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Currency Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund may invest in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Because the Fund's NAV is determined in U.S. dollars, the Fund's NAV could decline if currencies of the underlying securities depreciate against the U.S. dollar or if there are delays or limits on repatriation of such currencies. Generally, an increase in the value of the U.S. dollar against a foreign currency will reduce the value of a security denominated in that foreign currency, thereby decreasing the Fund's NAV. Exchange rates may be volatile and may change quickly and without warning, which could have a significant negative impact on the Fund.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Custody Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Custody risk refers to the risks in the process of clearing and settling trades, as well as the holding of securities and other assets by local banks, agents, and securities depositories.

Investments in the securities of foreign issuers (including investments in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) and Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”)) are subject to additional risks, including lower levels of liquidity and market efficiency; greater securities price volatility; exchange rate fluctuations and exchange controls; less availability of public information about issuers; limitations on foreign ownership of securities; imposition of withholding or other taxes; imposition of restrictions on the expatriation of the assets of the Fund; restrictions placed on U.S. investors by U.S. regulations governing foreign investments; higher transaction and custody costs and delays in settlement procedures; difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations; lower levels of regulation of the securities market; weaker accounting, disclosure and reporting requirements; and legal principles relating to corporate governance and directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities. The countries in which the Fund invests may also be subject to structural risks, including economic, political and social instability. Additionally, certain securities held by the Fund, while traded on U.S. exchanges, may be issued by foreign financial institutions and as such, may be subject to the risks of investing in securities issued by foreign companies, which may not be subject to the same regulations as companies domiciled in the U.S. Where all or a portion of the Fund's securities trade in a market that is closed when the market in which the Fund's Shares are listed and trading is open, there may be differences between the last quote from the security’s closed foreign market and the value of the security during the Fund’s domestic trading day. This, in turn, could lead to differences between the market price of the Fund’s Shares and the underlying value of those shares.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Geographic Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund’s investments in securities of issuers located in a particular country or geographic region may subject the Fund to certain risks to a greater extent than if its investments were less focused, including: natural, biological or other disasters and the spread of infectious diseases; economic, political and social instability; security concerns; and trade disputes with key trading partners.

These deviations could result in premiums or discounts to the Fund’s NAV that may be greater than those experienced by other exchange-traded funds ("ETFs").</span></div> <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Investable Universe of Companies Risk: </span>The investable universe of companies to which the Fund may seek economic exposure may be limited. If a company no longer satisfies the criteria used to determine the Fund’s investable universe, the Fund may need to reduce or eliminate its exposure to that company. The reduction or elimination of the Fund’s exposure to a company may have an adverse impact on the liquidity of the Fund’s overall portfolio holdings and on Fund performance. In addition, because the Fund may obtain economic exposure to a limited number of issuers, the Fund is subject to the risk that the value of its portfolio may decline as a result of a decline in the value of the Fund’s exposure to a particular issuer. The Fund’s economic exposure to an issuer may decline in value for reasons directly related to that issuer, such as management performance and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services. To the extent a significant portion of the Fund’s assets provides economic exposure to a limited number of issuers, the appreciation or depreciation of the Fund’s exposure to any one issuer may have a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value than it would if the Fund’s assets provided exposure to a greater number of issuers. <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Issuer Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Fund performance depends on the performance of individual companies in which the Fund invests.

Illiquidity may result from political, economic or issuer specific events; supply/demand imbalances; changes in a specific market’s size or structure; or overall market disruptions. Investments in securities or other assets with reduced liquidity or that become illiquid may involve greater risk than securities with more liquid markets. Market prices or quotations for illiquid securities may be volatile, and there may be large spreads between bid and ask prices. Reduced liquidity may have an adverse impact on market price of particular securities and may adversely affect the Fund’s ability to sell those securities when necessary to meet the Fund’s liquidity needs. To the extent that the Fund and its affiliates hold a significant portion of an issuer’s outstanding securities, the Fund may be subject to greater liquidity risk than if the issuer’s securities were more widely held.</span></div> <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Market Risk:</span> Turbulence in the financial markets and reduced liquidity may negatively affect issuers, which could have an adverse effect on the Fund and its investments. The Fund’s NAV could decline over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during market downturns. Trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs, may dampen consumer spending and result in decreased confidence in the markets. Additionally, political uncertainty regarding U.S. policy, including the U.S. government’s approach to trade, may also impact the markets. Furthermore, local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious diseases, inflation and recessions, changes in interest or exchange rates, or other events could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and trading of its Shares. Market risk factors may result in increased volatility and/or decreased liquidity in the securities markets. <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">New Fund Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund is a new fund, with limited or no operating history, which may result in additional risks for investors in the Fund.

There may be less information available about these companies and their operations, including with respect to performance. Newly listed companies may also include direct listings or IPOs, which are new issues of equity securities. Securities issued in direct listings and IPOs have no trading history, and information about the companies may be available for very limited periods. In addition, the prices of securities sold in direct listings or IPOs may be highly volatile or may decline shortly after listing on the exchange. Direct listing or IPO shares are subject to market risk and liquidity risk, and may involve high transaction costs. <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Non-Diversification Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund is classified as a “non-diversified” investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"), which means that the Fund may invest a greater portion of its assets in securities of individual issuers than a diversified fund. As a result, changes in the market value of a single investment may have a greater impact on the Fund’s NAV and may make the Fund more volatile than more diversified funds.</span></div> <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Operational Risk:</span> The Fund is exposed to operational risk arising from a number of factors, including but not limited to human error, processing and communication errors, errors of the Fund's service providers, counterparties or other third-parties, failed or inadequate processes, cyber security incidents, and technology or systems failures. The Fund and the Adviser seek to reduce these operational risks through controls and procedures.

Some transactions, including certain transactions in publicly traded securities and cash settled derivatives, are excepted from these requirements, subject to conditions. While these restrictions are presently focused on a limited number of countries and industries, new regulations or laws may expand the restrictions or notifications, cover additional sectors, countries, or types of transactions, or could limit or eliminate exclusions from these provisions. In addition, the United States has imposed sanctions on certain Chinese companies, including those identified as part of the Chinese Military-Industrial Complex (“CMIC”). These sanctions generally prohibit U.S. persons from purchasing or selling publicly traded securities of designated CMIC entities. The CMIC list has evolved over time and may continue to expand, which could affect companies in technology, telecommunications, and defense-related sectors. Changes in these regulations, laws, and sanctions in the U.S. and elsewhere could affect the ability of the Fund to invest in certain companies or industries, adversely affect the Fund’s value or liquidity, or could require divestment of existing holdings and may require the Fund to notify the U.S. Treasury and/or take other steps. The scope and impact of these rules are evolving, and it is not possible to predict how they may develop or how they may affect the Fund. These and similar developments could negatively affect Fund performance and may increase diligence and reporting costs for the Fund.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Risks Associated with Exchange-Traded Funds:</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> As an ETF, the Fund is subject to the following risks: </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Authorized Participants Concentration Risk:</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants and engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund, and none of those Authorized Participants is obligated to engage in creation and/or redemption transactions. To the extent that those Authorized Participants exit the business or are unable to process creation and/or redemption orders, such as in times of market stress, Shares may be more likely to trade at a premium or discount to NAV and/or at wider intraday bid-ask spreads, and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting from an exchange.

In stressed market conditions, the market for the Shares may become less liquid in response to the deteriorating liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio. This adverse effect on the liquidity of the Shares, as well as disruptions to creations and redemptions, the existence of extreme market volatility or potential lack of assets in the Fund or an active trading market for Shares may result in Shares trading at a significant premium or discount to NAV. If a shareholder purchases Shares at a time when the market price is at a premium to the NAV or sells Shares at a time when the market price is at a discount to the NAV, the shareholder may sustain losses. The NAV of the Fund is calculated at the end of each business day and fluctuates with changes in the market value of the Fund’s holdings. The trading price of the Fund’s Shares fluctuates, in some cases materially, throughout trading hours in response to changes in the Fund’s NAV.</span></div> <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Authorized Participants Concentration Risk:</span> The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants and engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund, and none of those Authorized Participants is obligated to engage in creation and/or redemption transactions. To the extent that those Authorized Participants exit the business or are unable to process creation and/or redemption orders, such as in times of market stress, Shares may be more likely to trade at a premium or discount to NAV and/or at wider intraday bid-ask spreads, and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting from an exchange. Authorized Participants Concentration Risk may be heightened because the Fund invests in non-U.S. securities. <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Large Shareholder Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Certain shareholders, including an Authorized Participant, the Adviser, an affiliate of the Adviser, or funds managed by the Adviser, may own a substantial amount of the Fund’s Shares. Redemptions by large shareholders could have a significant negative impact on the Fund. If a large shareholder were to redeem all, or a large portion, of its Shares, there is no guarantee that the Fund will be able to maintain sufficient assets to continue operations in which case the Board of Trustees may determine to liquidate the Fund. In addition, transactions by large shareholders may account for a large percentage of the trading volume on a national securities exchange and may, therefore, have a material upward or downward effect on the market price of the Shares.</span> <div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Listing Standards Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund is required to comply with listing requirements adopted by the listing exchange.

Any </span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">resulting liquidation of the Fund could cause the Fund to incur elevated transaction costs and could result in negative tax consequences for its shareholders.</span></div> <div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Market Trading Risks and Premium/Discount Risks:</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> Shares of the Fund are publicly traded on a national securities exchange, which may subject shareholders to numerous market trading risks. In stressed market conditions, the market for the Shares may become less liquid in response to the deteriorating liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio. This adverse effect on the liquidity of the Shares, as well as disruptions to creations and redemptions, the existence of extreme market volatility or potential lack of assets in the Fund or an active trading market for Shares may result in Shares trading at a significant premium or discount to NAV. If a shareholder purchases Shares at a time when the market price is at a premium to the NAV or sells Shares at a time when the market price is at a discount to the NAV, the shareholder may sustain losses. The NAV of the Fund is calculated at the end of each business day and fluctuates with changes in the market value of the Fund’s holdings. The trading price of the Fund’s Shares fluctuates, in some cases materially, throughout trading hours in response to changes in the Fund’s NAV.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Securities Lending Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Securities lending involves a risk of loss because the borrower may fail to return the securities in a timely manner or at all. If the Fund is not able to recover the securities loaned, it may sell the collateral and purchase a replacement security in the market. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the loaned securities increases and the collateral is not increased accordingly. Additionally, the Fund will bear any loss on the investment of cash collateral it receives. These events could also trigger adverse tax consequences for the Fund. As securities on loan may not be voted by the Fund, there is a risk that the Fund may not be able to recall the securities in sufficient time to vote on material proxy matters.</span></div> <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Swap Agreements Risk: </span>Swap agreements are contracts among the Fund and a counterparty to exchange the return of the pre-determined underlying investment (such as the rate of return of a specified security). Swap agreements may be negotiated bilaterally and traded over-the-counter (“OTC”) between two parties or, in some instances, must be transacted through a futures commission merchant and cleared through a clearinghouse that serves as a central counterparty. Risks associated with the use of swap agreements are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions, due in part to the fact they could be considered illiquid and many swaps trade on the OTC market. It may not be possible for the Fund to liquidate a swap position at an advantageous time or price, which may result in significant losses. Swaps are particularly subject to counterparty credit, correlation, valuation, liquidity and leveraging risks. Certain standardized swaps are subject to mandatory central clearing. Central clearing is intended to reduce counterparty credit risk and increase liquidity, but central clearing does not make swap transactions risk-free. The Fund may be required to post margin or collateral with a clearinghouse or custodian. Operational failures and/or improper segregation of assets held by a clearinghouse or custodian may affect the Fund’s rights under a swap agreement and/or result in a loss of assets posted as margin or collateral. Swap agreements may involve greater risks than direct investment in securities. <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Tax Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund intends to elect and to qualify each year to be treated as a regulated investment company (a “RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). As a RIC, the Fund will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of its net investment income and net capital gain that it distributes to shareholders, provided that it satisfies certain requirements of the Code. If the Fund does not qualify as a RIC for any taxable year and certain relief provisions are not available, the Fund’s taxable income will be subject to tax at the Fund level and to a further tax at the shareholder level when such income is distributed. The Fund will seek to comply with the asset diversification test applicable to a RIC (the “Diversification Requirement”). The determination of the value and the identity of the issuer of derivatives, such as swap agreements, is often unclear for purposes of the Diversification Requirement. Although the Fund intends to carefully monitor its investments in derivatives to ensure that it is adequately diversified under the Diversification Requirement, there are no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will agree with the Fund’s determination of the issuer and valuation of such derivatives under the Diversification Requirement with respect to such derivatives. The Adviser’s efforts to satisfy the Fund’s Diversification Requirement may compromise its ability to implement the Fund’s investment strategy as effectively as it might otherwise have been able to in the absence of such a requirement.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Trading Halt Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">An exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on specific securities, or the ability to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments may be restricted, which may result in the Fund being unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments. In such circumstances, the Fund may be unable to rebalance its portfolio, may be unable to accurately price its investments and/or may incur substantial trading losses.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Turnover Risk: </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Fund may engage in frequent and active trading, which may significantly increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate. At times, the Fund may have a portfolio turnover rate substantially greater than 100%. For example, a portfolio turnover rate of 300% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of its securities three times during the course of a year. A high portfolio turnover rate would result in high brokerage costs for the Fund. A high portfolio turnover rate may result in </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account, including an increase in taxable capital gains distributions to Fund shareholders, and may lower the Fund's after-tax performance.</span></div> <div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Valuation Risk:</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> The sales price the Fund could receive for a security may differ from the Fund’s valuation of the security, particularly for securities that trade in low value or volatile markets or that are valued using a fair value methodology (such as during trading halts). The value of the securities in the Fund's portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or sell the Fund's Shares.</span></div> PERFORMANCE INFORMATION The Fund does not have a full calendar year of performance.
