Prospectus Gross Expense Ratio (7/1/2024) 2.26% 2.51% 3.26% 2.51%

Adjusted Expense Ratio 1.99% 2.24% 2.99% 2.24%

The advisor has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund to the extent necessary to limit total annual fund operating expenses (excluding brokerage costs; acquired fund fees and expenses; borrowing costs such as (a) interest and (b) dividends on securities sold short; taxes and, extraordinary expenses, such as regulatory inquiry and litigation expenses) at 2.24%, 2.99% and 1.99% for Class A shares, Class C shares and Class I shares, respectively, through October 31, 2025. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. You cannot invest directly in an index and unmanaged index returns do not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges. Performance shown before July 1, 2024 is for the Fund’s Predecessor Fund (Welton ESG Advantage Fund LLC).

Sharpe Ratio: compares the return of an investment with its risk. It’s a mathematical expression of the insight that excess returns over a period of time may signify more volatility and risk, rather than investing skill. A higher Sharpe ratio is better when comparing similar portfolios.

The Fund’s performance provided below (for periods prior to the commencement of the Fund’s operations) is that of the Predecessor Fund, which includes all of the Predecessor Fund’s fees and expenses over various periods ended December 31, 2023, as adjusted to include the applicable sales loads of each class of Shares of the Fund. The performance of the Predecessor Fund has not been restated to reflect the fees, estimated expenses and fee waivers and/or expense limitations applicable to each class of shares of the Fund. If the performance of the Predecessor Fund had been restated to reflect the applicable fees and expenses of each class of shares of the Fund, the performance would have been lower. The Predecessor Fund did not have a distribution policy. It was a limited liability company, did not qualify as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes, and it did not pay dividends and distributions. As a result of the different tax treatment, we are unable to show the after-tax returns for the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was not registered under the 1940 Act and, therefore, was not subject to certain investment restrictions, limitations and diversification requirements that are imposed by the 1940 Act. If the Predecessor Fund had been registered under the 1940 Act, the Predecessor Fund’s performance may have been adversely affected.
