Important Information

Investments involve risk including the possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee the investment objective of the Funds will be achieved. Unlike mutual funds, ETFs may trade at a premium or discount to their net asset value.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of a fund before investing.

Please read it carefully before investing.

The Funds are actively-managed and are subject to the risk that the strategy may not produce the intended results. The Funds are new and has a limited operating history to evaluate. In addition, the following risks apply to the Fund indicated:

Blue-Chip Stocks Risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that blue-chip stocks will underperform other kinds of investments for a period of time. This risk is true of any market segment. Large companies do not have the same growth potential of smaller companies, and shareholders of large companies have less overall influence than they would in smaller companies. Environmental, Social, and Governance Investing Risk. The Fund incorporation of ESG considerations in its investment strategy may cause it to make different investments than a fund that has a similar investment style but does not incorporate such considerations in its strategy. As with the use of any considerations involved in investment decisions, there is no guarantee that the ESG investment considerations used by the Funds will result in the selection of issuers that will outperform other issuers or help reduce risk in the Funds. The Fund may underperform funds that do not incorporate these considerations. Financial Sector Risk. Performance of companies in the financials sector may be adversely impacted by many factors, including, among others, changes in government regulations, economic conditions, and interest rates, credit rating downgrades, and decreased liquidity in credit markets. The extent to which the Fund may invest in a company that engages in securities-related activities or banking is limited by applicable law. Focus Investing Risk. The Fund seeks to hold the stocks of approximately 35 companies. As a result, the Fund invests a high percentage of its assets in a small number of companies, which may add to Fund volatility. Information Technology Sector Risk. The information technology sector includes companies engaged in internet software and services, technology hardware and storage peripherals, electronic equipment and components, and semiconductors and semiconductor equipment. Information technology companies face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on profit margins. Information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources, or personnel. The products of information technology companies may face rapid product obsolescence due to technological developments and frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates, and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Failure to introduce new products, develop and maintain a loyal customer base or achieve general market acceptance for their products could have a material adverse effect on a company’s business. Companies in the information technology sector are heavily dependent on intellectual property, and the loss of patent, copyright, or trademark protections may adversely affect the profitability of these companies. Sector Risk. Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. A certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market, as a whole. As the Sub-Adviser allocates more of the Fund’s portfolio holdings to a particular sector, the Fund’s performance will be more susceptible to any economic, business, or other developments which generally affect that sector. Small-Cap Company Risk. Investing in small-cap stocks may involve greater volatility and risk than investing in large- or mid-cap stocks because small-cap companies may have less management experience, limited financial resources and minimal product diversification. Value Stocks Risk. Value investing carries the risk that the market will not recognize a security’s intrinsic value for a long time or that a stock judged to be undervalued by various value measures may actually be appropriately priced. In addition, value stocks as a group may be out of favor at times and underperform the overall equity market for long periods while the market concentrates on other types of stocks, such as “growth” stocks.

Shares of the ETF may be bought or sold throughout the day at their market price on the exchange on which they are listed. The market price of an ETF’s shares may be at, above or below the ETF’s net asset value (“NAV”) and will fluctuate with changes in the NAV as well as supply and demand in the market for the shares. Shares of the ETF may only be redeemed directly with the ETF at NAV by Authorized Participants, in very large creation units. There can be no guarantee that an active trading market for the Fund’s shares will develop or be maintained, or that their listing will continue or remain unchanged. Buying or selling the Fund’s shares on an exchange may require the payment of brokerage commissions and frequent trading may incur brokerage costs that detract significantly from investment returns.
