The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. YOUR EXPENSES. The table below describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table or the example below. Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment): 0.0050 0 0.0015 0.0065 -0.0009 0.0056 “Other expenses” are estimated for the current fiscal year. February 29, 2028 Example. The example below is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other exchange-traded funds. The example assumes that: ●Your investment has a 5% return each year ●The Fund’s operating expenses remain the same (except that the example reflects the fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangement reflected in the table above for only the first year) Your actual costs may be higher or lower. Based on these assumptions, for every $10,000 invested, you would pay the following expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated: 57 199 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 Fund 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. Because the Fund has not yet commenced operations as of the date of this prospectus, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate for the most recent fiscal year is not available. PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGY. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 65% of its net assets in foreign equity securities. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in securities of growth companies. The Fund seeks to outperform the MSCI EAFE Growth Index. The Fund invests across a broad range of companies in a number of different countries throughout the world, with no limit on the amount of assets that may be invested in each country. Securities in which the Fund invests are denominated in both U.S. dollars and foreign currencies and may trade in both U.S. and foreign markets. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization, but tends to focus on large and medium capitalization companies. The Fund may trade securities actively. Based on market or economic conditions, the Fund may, through its normal stock selection process, focus on one or more sectors of the market. The Fund is a non-diversified fund, which means that it may invest its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. The Fund’s portfolio manager selects stocks from an investment universe populated by multiple fundamental equity investment teams at the sub-adviser, Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington Management”), with different investment approaches to growth investing. Each fundamental equity investment team has a distinct investment philosophy and analytical process to identify securities. The Fund’s investment universe represents a wide range of investment philosophies, companies, industries and market capitalizations. The Fund’s portfolio manager selects a subset of securities from the investable universe for inclusion in the portfolio, seeking to include stocks that the fundamental equity investment teams believe are high conviction or otherwise offer attractive risk-return characteristics. The Fund’s portfolio manager also may invest a portion of the Fund’s assets in securities that the portfolio manager believes may complement the Fund’s total risk profile or support overall portfolio construction targets. The Fund’s portfolio manager does not allocate a set percentage to any investment approach or security but instead seeks a flexible and broad-based Fund profile consistent with the Fund’s overall focus on growth investing. The portfolio manager also uses quantitative portfolio construction tools as part of the investment process. Equity securities include but are not limited to common stock, depositary receipts, preferred stock, securities convertible into common or preferred stock and warrants or rights to acquire common stock Investments are deemed to be “foreign” if one or more of the following criteria is met: (a) an issuer’s domicile or location of headquarters is in a foreign country; (b) an issuer is doing a substantial amount of business outside the United States, which the Fund considers to be an issuer that derives at least 50% of its revenues or profits outside the United States or has at least 50% of its sales or assets outside the United States; (c) the principal trading market for a security of an issuer is located in a foreign country; or (d) it is a foreign currency or the investment is denominated in a foreign currency. Wellington Management determines whether a company is a growth company based on traditional and other measures of growth, such as whether the company is included in a third-party growth index (e.g. MSCI ACWI Growth Index, Russell 3000 Growth Index or the FTSE All-World Growth Index) and/or whether the company exhibits growth characteristics based on certain metrics, such as how a company’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, earnings per share (EPS) growth and/or revenue growth compare to the median of the MSCI EAFE Index (Net). A company may be determined to be a growth company under any of these factors. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in securities of growth companies.

When you sell your shares they may be worth more or less than what you paid for them, which means that you could lose money as a result of your investment. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Market Risk – Market risk is the risk that one or more markets in which the Fund invests will go down in value, including the possibility that the markets will go down sharply and unpredictably. Securities of a company may decline in value due to its financial prospects and activities, including certain operational impacts, such as data breaches and cybersecurity attacks. Securities may also decline in value due to general market and economic movements and trends, including adverse changes to credit markets, or as a result of other events (or threat thereof), such as geopolitical events, natural disasters, or widespread pandemics (such as COVID-19) or other adverse public health developments. Foreign Investments Risk – Investments in foreign securities may be riskier, more volatile, and less liquid than investments in U.S. securities. Differences between the U.S. and foreign regulatory regimes and securities markets, including the less stringent investor protection, less stringent accounting, corporate governance, financial reporting and disclosure standards of some foreign markets, as well as political and economic developments in foreign countries and regions and the U.S. (including the imposition of sanctions, tariffs, or other governmental restrictions), may affect the value of the Fund’s foreign investments. Changes in currency exchange rates may also adversely affect the Fund’s foreign investments. Currency Risk – The risk that the value of the Fund’s investments in foreign securities or currencies will be affected by the value of the applicable currency relative to the U.S. dollar. When the Fund sells a foreign currency or foreign currency denominated security, its value may be worth less in U.S. dollars even if the investment increases in value in its local market. U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers may also be affected by currency risk, as the revenue earned by issuers of these securities may also be affected by changes in the issuer’s local currency. Regional/Country Focus Risk – To the extent that the Fund focuses its investments in a particular geographic region or country, the Fund may be subject to increased currency, political, regulatory, economic and other risks associated with that region or country. A natural or other disaster could occur in a geographic region in which the Fund invests, which could affect the economy or particular business operations of companies in the specific geographic region. As a result, the Fund may be subject to greater price volatility and risk of loss than a fund holding more geographically diverse investments. Equity Risk – The risk that the price of equity or equity related securities may decline due to changes in a company’s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions. Mid-Cap Securities Risk – The securities of mid-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are generally subject to greater and less predictable price changes than the securities of larger capitalization companies. Large Cap Securities Risk – The securities of large market capitalization companies may underperform other segments of the market because such companies may be less responsive to competitive challenges and opportunities and may be unable to attain high growth rates during periods of economic expansion. Growth Investing Style Risk – If the sub-adviser incorrectly assesses a company’s prospects for growth or how other investors will value the company’s growth, then the price of the company’s stock may decrease, or may not increase to the level anticipated by the sub-adviser. In addition, growth stocks may be more volatile than other stocks because they are more sensitive to investors’ perceptions of the issuing company’s growth potential. Also, the growth investing style may over time go in and out of favor. At times when the investing style used by the Fund is out of favor, the Fund may underperform other equity funds that use different investing styles. Active Investment Management Risk – The risk that, if the sub-adviser’s investment strategy does not perform as expected, the Fund could underperform its peers or lose money. Although the sub-adviser considers several factors when making investment decisions, the sub-adviser may not evaluate every factor prior to investing in a company or issuer, and the sub-adviser may determine that certain factors are more significant than others. Quantitative Investing Risk – The value of securities or other investments selected using quantitative analysis can perform differently from the market as a whole or from their expected performance. This may be as a result of the factors used in the analysis, the weights placed on each factor, and changes in the historical trends of the factors. Sector Risk – To the extent the Fund invests more heavily in a particular sector or sectors, its performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those sectors. Individual sectors may be more volatile, and may perform differently, from the broader market. Non-Diversification Risk – The Fund is non-diversified, which means it is permitted to invest a greater portion of its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a “diversified” fund. For this reason the Fund may be more exposed to the risks associated with and developments affecting an individual issuer than a fund that invests more widely. The Fund may also be subject to greater market fluctuation and price volatility than a more broadly diversified fund. New Fund Risk – The Fund is a new fund which may result in additional risks. There can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to an economically viable size, in which case the Fund may cease operations. In such an event, investors may be required to liquidate or transfer their investments at an inopportune time. Active Trading Risk – Active trading risk is the risk that the Fund’s portfolio may have a higher turnover rate than other funds. A higher portfolio turnover rate may result in higher transaction costs and higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses, may adversely affect the Fund’s performance. Market Price Risk – The net asset value (“NAV”) of the Fund’s shares and the value of your investment may fluctuate. The market prices of the Fund’s shares will generally fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV and changes in the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings, as well as the relative supply of and demand for the shares on the Fund’s listing exchange. Although it is expected that the Fund’s shares will remain listed on the exchange, disruptions to creations and redemptions, the existence of market volatility or lack of an active trading market for the shares (including through a trading halt), as well as other factors, may result in the shares trading significantly above (at a premium to) or below (at a discount to) the Fund’s NAV or the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings. In addition, because liquidity in certain underlying portfolio securities may fluctuate over time, shares of the Fund may, at times, trade at a larger than normal premium or discount to NAV. In addition, to the extent certain of the Fund’s portfolio securities are trading on days or at times the Fund’s shares are not trading, bid-ask spreads and the resulting premium or discount to the NAV of the Fund’s shares may widen. During such periods, you may be unable to sell your shares or may incur significant losses if you sell your shares. There are various methods by which investors can purchase and sell shares and various types of orders that may be placed. Investors should consult their financial intermediary before purchasing or selling shares of the Fund. Neither the Investment Manager nor the Fund’s sub-adviser can predict whether the Fund’s shares will trade below, at or above their NAV. Price differences may be due, in large part, to the fact that supply and demand forces at work in the secondary trading market for the Fund’s shares will be closely related to, but not identical to, the same forces influencing the prices of the Fund’s holdings trading individually or in the aggregate at any point in time. Where all or a portion of the Fund’s underlying securities trade in a market that is closed, when the market in which the Fund shares are listed and trading is open, there may be changes between the last available quotation from the closed foreign market, and the value of such security during the Fund’s domestic trading day. This could lead to differences between the market price of the Fund shares and the underlying value of the Fund’s holdings. In addition, unlike many ETFs, the Fund is not an index fund. The Fund is actively managed and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. There can be no assurance as to whether and/or to what extent the Fund’s shares will trade at premiums or discounts to NAV or to the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings. Authorized Participant Concentration Risk – Only an authorized participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of intermediaries that act as authorized participants on an agency basis (i.e., on behalf of other market participants), and none of these authorized participants are or will be obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that these intermediaries exit the business or are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other authorized participant is able to step forward to create or redeem, Fund shares may trade at a premium or discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGY. Under normal circumstances, the Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks of issuers located in the United States. Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington Management”), the Fund’s sub-adviser, chooses the Fund’s investments using fundamental research to identify undervalued companies in the marketplace relative to a variety of characteristics. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in securities of small and mid-capitalization issuers. The Fund seeks to outperform the Russell 2500 Index. The Fund seeks to invest broadly across companies and industries.

The portfolio manager also uses quantitative portfolio construction tools as part of the investment process. The Fund defines small- and mid-cap securities as companies with market caps within the collective range of the Russell 2500 Index. As of June 30, 2026, this range was approximately $8.53 million to $30.65 billion for the Russell 2500 Index. The market capitalization range of this index changes over time.

Mid-Cap Securities Risk – The securities of mid-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are generally subject to greater and less predictable price changes than the securities of larger capitalization companies. Small Cap Securities Risk – Investments in small capitalization companies involve greater risks than investments in larger, more established companies. Many of these companies are young and have limited operating or business history. These securities may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements and may lack sufficient market liquidity, and these issuers often face greater business risks, including the risk of bankruptcy. Active Investment Management Risk – The risk that, if the sub-adviser’s investment strategy does not perform as expected, the Fund could underperform its peers or lose money.

There can be no assurance as to whether and/or to what extent the Fund’s shares will trade at premiums or discounts to NAV or to the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings. Authorized Participant Concentration Risk – Only an authorized participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of intermediaries that act as authorized participants on an agency basis (i.e., on behalf of other market participants), and none of these authorized participants are or will be obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that these intermediaries exit the business or are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other authorized participant is able to step forward to create or redeem, Fund shares may trade at a premium or discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting.
