●

Managed Portfolio Risk. The manager’s investment strategies or choice of specific securities may be unsuccessful and may cause the Fund to incur losses.

●

Industry Risk. The Fund’s investments could be concentrated within one industry or group of industries. Any factors detrimental to the performance of such industries will disproportionately impact the Fund. Investments focused in a particular industry are subject to greater risk and are more greatly impacted by market volatility than less concentrated investments.

●

Non-U.S. Securities Risk. Non-U.S. securities are subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuations, generally higher volatility and lower liquidity than U.S. securities, less developed securities markets and economic systems and political and economic instability.

●

Large-Cap Stock Risk. The Fund’s investment in larger companies is subject to the risk that larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

●

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives involve special risks and costs and may result in losses to the Fund. The successful use of derivatives requires sophisticated management, and, to the extent that derivatives are used, the Fund will depend on the Adviser’s ability to analyze and manage derivatives transactions. The prices of derivatives may move in unexpected ways, especially in abnormal market conditions.

●

Currency Risk. The risk that fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and non-U.S. currencies may cause the value of the Fund’s non-U.S. investments to decline in terms of U.S. dollars. Additionally, certain of the Fund’s foreign currency transactions may give rise to ordinary income or loss to the extent such income or loss results from fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency.

●

Derivatives Risk. The use of Commodity Investments and other derivative instruments by the Fund involves risks that are different from, and in many cases greater than, the risk associated with investing in

Certain derivative transactions may give rise to a form of leverage. Leverage magnifies the potential for gain and the risk of loss. Leveraging may cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions to satisfy its obligations or to meet segregation requirements when it may not be advantageous to do so.

●

Active Management Risk. The portfolio managers’ judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular asset classes, securities or sectors may prove to be incorrect. Such errors could result in a negative return and a loss to you.

●

Counterparty Risk. A financial institution or other counterparty with whom the Fund does business, or that underwrites, distributes or guarantees any investments or contracts that the Fund owns or is otherwise exposed to, may decline in financial health and become unable to honor its commitments. This could cause losses for the Fund or could delay the return or delivery of collateral or other assets to the Fund. The Fund may also enter into arrangements with a third-party futures commission merchant or other counterparty pursuant to which such other party undertakes to assume the Fund’s obligations with respect to physically-settled transactions under certain circumstances. A counterparty’s failure to assume such obligations may result in the Fund having to deliver, or accept delivery of, commodities, which could have a materially adverse impact on the Fund’s operations and returns.

●

Commodity Swaps Risk. The Fund (whether directly or through the Subsidiary) may invest in swap agreements to seek to enable the Fund to hedge a position or to gain exposure to commodities or an index without investing in specific commodities or instruments. If a counterparty to a swap agreement becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under the swap due to financial difficulties, the Fund could suffer losses. In addition to the risk of default by the counterparty, if the creditworthiness of a counterparty to a swap agreement declines, the value of the swap agreement would be likely to decline, potentially resulting in losses.

●

Futures Contracts Risk. Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an underlying asset at a price, date and time specified when the contract is made. The Fund uses futures contracts, which are a type of derivative, is subject to the risk of loss caused by unanticipated market movements. In addition, there may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in the prices of futures contracts and the value of their underlying instruments or indexes and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain futures contracts.

●

Affiliated ETF Risk. The Sub-Adviser (and where applicable, the Adviser) receives sub-advisory (or advisory) fees from an underlying ETF for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser and the Sub-Adviser serves as the sub-adviser (a “CoreCommodity ETF”) that are payable to those parties pursuant to the sub-advisory and/or advisory agreements of such CoreCommodity ETF. It is possible that a conflict of interest among the Fund and the CoreCommodity ETF could affect how the Sub-Adviser fulfills its fiduciary duties to the Fund and the CoreCommodity ETF. The Sub-Adviser may have an incentive to take into account the effect on the CoreCommodity ETF in which the Fund may invest in determining whether, and under what circumstances, to purchase or sell shares in such CoreCommodity ETF. To seek to mitigate risks of conflicts of interest arising from investments in affiliated investment companies, the Adviser has agreed to waive and/or reimburse the Fund for any acquired fund fees and expenses payable by the Fund that are attributable to the portion of the Fund’s assets invested in a CoreCommodity ETF. There is no assurance that these measures will completely mitigate conflicts of interest in the selection of CoreCommodity ETFs.

●

Natural Resources Risk. The Fund’s investments, or an underlying ETF’s investments, in securities of natural resource companies involve risks. The market value of securities of natural resource companies may be affected by numerous factors, including changes in overall market movements; economic, geographical or financial events; events occurring in nature; inflationary pressures; and domestic and international politics. Because the Fund invests significantly in natural resource companies, there is the risk that the Fund or an underlying ETF will perform poorly during a downturn in the natural resource sector. For example, events occurring in nature (such as earthquakes, droughts, floods, weather, livestock disease or fires in prime natural resource areas) and political events (such as war, coups, military confrontations or acts of terrorism, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions or other regulatory developments) can affect the overall supply of a natural resource and the value of companies involved in such natural resource. Political risks and the other risks to which foreign securities are subject may also affect domestic natural resource companies if they have significant operations or investments in foreign countries. The market value of natural resources and the value of securities of natural resource companies can also fluctuate widely due to supply and demand disruptions in major producing or consuming regions. In particular Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine has increased the volatility of many natural resources investments. Changing interest rates and/or investor expectations concerning interest rates, changing inflation rates and/or investor expectations concerning inflation rates, and general economic conditions may also affect the demand for natural resources. In addition,

Certain natural resources may be produced in a limited number of countries and may be controlled by a small number of producers. As a result, political, economic and supply related events in such countries could have a disproportionate impact on the prices of such natural resources and the value of securities of companies involved in such natural resource.

●

Subsidiary Risk. By investing in the Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the Subsidiary’s investments. In addition, the Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, and, unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act. In addition, changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the Fund and/or the Subsidiary to operate as described in this Prospectus and the statement of additional information and could adversely affect the Fund.

●

Equity Risk. The values of equity securities in the Fund and the values of underlying ETFs will fluctuate and, as a result, the Fund’s share price may decline suddenly or over a sustained period of time due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as inflation, supply chain disruptions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions throughout the world, war or political unrest, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness, including COVID-19 and its variants, or other public issues or adverse investor sentiment generally. The market value of a security or instrument also may decline because of factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry, including tariffs and other similar economic arrangements. The Fund or an underlying ETF invests in equity securities of companies engaged in the production and distribution of commodities and commodity-related products and services in the agriculture, base/industrial metals, energy and precious metals sectors and does not measure the performance of direct investment in the underlying commodities and, therefore, may not move in the same direction and to the same extent as the underlying commodities.

●

Micro-, Small- and Medium-Size Company Risk. To the extent that the Fund or an underlying ETF invests in micro-, small- and mid-capitalization stocks, the Fund is likely to be more volatile than a fund that invests only in large companies. Micro, small- and medium-sized companies are generally riskier because they may have limited product lines, capital and managerial resources. Their securities may trade less frequently and with greater price swings.

●

Tax Risk. The Fund intends to treat its income from Commodity Investments and the Subsidiary as qualifying income. The tax treatment of income from Commodity Investments and income from the Subsidiary is not certain under current law, and may be adversely affected by changes in legislation, regulations or other legally binding authority. If the income of the Fund from Commodity Investments or the Subsidiary were treated as nonqualifying income for a regulated investment company (“RIC”), the Fund might not qualify as a RIC. The Fund must remain a RIC to avoid federal income tax at the Fund level.

●

Inflation-Protected Securities Risk. The value of inflation-protected securities such as TIPS generally fluctuates in response to changes in real interest rates, which are in turn tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates might decline, leading to an increase in value of TIPS and vice versa. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of TIPS.

●

Authorized Participant Risk. Only an authorized participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with an underlying ETF. Underlying ETFs have a limited number of intermediaries that act as authorized 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 (including in situations where authorized participants have limited or diminished access to capital required to post collateral), with respect to an underlying ETF and no other authorized participant is able to step forward to create or redeem, Shares of an underlying ETF may trade at a discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting (that is, investors would no longer be able to trade shares in the secondary market). The authorized participant concentration risk may be heightened in scenarios where authorized participants have limited or diminished access to the capital required to post collateral.

●

Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities in which the Fund invests may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors that affect securities markets generally or factors affecting specific industries, sectors or companies in which the Fund invests, including tariffs and other similar economic arrangements.

●

Non-U.S. Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in non-U.S. securities. Investments in non-U.S. securities may experience additional risks compared to investments in securities of U.S. companies. The risks to the Fund may include foreign currency fluctuations, generally higher volatility and lower liquidity than U.S. securities, less developed securities markets and economic systems and political and economic instability.

Furthermore, non-U.S. taxes also could detract from performance of the non-U.S. securities in which the Fund invests and in turn could negatively impact the performance of the Fund. Companies based in non-U.S. countries may not be subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and practices as stringent as those in the United States. Therefore, their financial reports may present an incomplete, untimely or misleading picture of a non-U.S. company, as compared to the financial reports of U.S. companies. To the extent the Fund invests in foreign debt securities, such investments are sensitive to changes in interest rates.

●

Small – to Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk. The Fund’s investments in securities of companies with small- to mid-sized market capitalizations can present higher risks than do investments in securities of larger companies. Prices of such securities can be more volatile than the securities of larger capitalization firms and can be more thinly traded. This may result in such securities being less liquid.

●

ETF Investment Risk. Each Underlying ETF in which the Fund invests will be subject to its own principal risks, depending on the investment objective, investment strategy, and other characteristics of such Underlying ETFs. Those Underlying ETF risks may in turn become principal risks of an investment in the Fund. To the extent the Fund invests in other ETFs, including AAI ETFs, the Fund’s shareholders will indirectly incur certain fees and expenses of that ETF, including investment advisory fees. The return on such investments will be reduced by the operating expenses, including investment advisory and administration fees, of such ETFs, and will be further reduced by the Fund’s own expenses, including the Fund’s administrative fees. The Adviser has agreed to waive and/or reimburse the Fund for any acquired fund fees and expenses payable by the Fund that are attributable to the portion of the Fund’s assets invested in an AAI ETF. ETFs are investment companies that are bought and sold on a securities exchange. The Fund could lose money by investing in an ETF, including if the value of the ETF’s investments go down. In addition, the market price of an ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or discount to their net asset value, meaning that the Fund could pay more to purchase shares of an ETF, or receive less in a sale of shares of an ETF, than the net asset value of the ETF. ETFs are also subject to potential liquidity risk because an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained, trading of an ETF’s shares may be halted from time to time, or the shares may be de-listed from the exchange. Where all or a portion of an underlying ETF’s underlying securities trade on a foreign market, there may be differences between the price of the underlying ETF’s shares and the shares of the underlying securities due to differences in the opening and closing times of such foreign markets.

●

Sector and Securities Selection Risk. Companies in which the Fund may invest with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. Sector risk is the possibility that a certain sector may perform differently than other sectors or as the market as a whole. Although the Fund does not intend to invest in any particular sector or sectors, the Fund may, from time to time, emphasize investments in one or more sectors.

●

U.S. Government Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in U.S. government debt securities. U.S. Government debt securities are generally considered low risk. Not all U.S. government securities are backed or guaranteed by the U.S. government and different U.S. government securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk. There is a risk that the U.S. government will not make timely payments on its debt or provide financial support to U.S. government agencies, instrumentalities or sponsored enterprises if those entities are not able to meet their financial obligations.

●

Growth Securities Risk. The Fund invests in companies that the portfolio managers believe have growth potential. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. If the portfolio managers’ perception of a company’s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund’s returns. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market conditions, “growth” stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.

●

Dividend-Oriented Stocks Risks. Companies that have paid regular dividends to shareholders may decrease or eliminate dividend payments in the future. A decrease in dividend payments by an issuer may result in a decrease in the value of the security held by the Fund or the Fund receiving less income.

●

Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities held by the Fund are likely to decrease. Securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, and are usually more volatile than securities with

●

High-Yield/High-Risk Bond Risk. The Fund may invest in High-yield/high-risk bonds, or “junk” bonds. High-yield/high-risk bonds are bonds rated below investment-grade by the primary rating agencies, such as Standard & Poors, Fitch and Moody’s, or are unrated bonds of similar quality. The value of lower quality bonds generally is more dependent on credit risk than investment-grade bonds. Issuers of high-yield/high-risk bonds may not be as strong financially as those issuing bonds with higher credit ratings and are more vulnerable to real or perceived economic changes, political changes or adverse developments specific to the issuer. In addition, the junk bond market can experience sudden and sharp price swings. Further, secondary markets for high-yield securities are less liquid than the market for investment-grade securities. Therefore, it may be more difficult to value the securities held by the Fund because valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment may play a larger role in the valuation because there is less reliable, objective data available.

●

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in Mortgage- and asset-backed securities, which represent interests in “pools” of commercial or residential mortgages or other assets, including consumer loans or receivables. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than other types of debt securities. These risks may reduce the Fund’s returns. In addition, the Fund’s investments in mortgage- and asset-backed securities, including those comprised of subprime mortgages, may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk than various other types of fixed-income securities.

●

Prepayment and Extension Risk. The Fund may invest in securities that are exposed to prepayment and/or extension risk. When interest rates fall, issuers of high interest debt obligations in which the Fund invest may pay off the debts earlier than expected (prepayment risk), and the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds at lower yields. When interest rates rise, issuers of lower interest debt obligations may pay off the debts later than expected (extension risk), thus keeping the Fund’s assets tied up in lower interest debt obligations. Ultimately, any unexpected behavior in interest rates could increase the volatility of the Fund’s share price and yield and could hurt the Fund’s performance. Prepayments could also create capital gains tax liability in some instances.

●

Floating Rate Obligations Risk. There may be a number of intermediate participants in floating rate obligation transactions and loan agreements that have specific rights and obligations, and terms and conditions. Unexpected changes in the interest rates on floating rate obligations could result in losses to the Fund. In addition, the secondary market on which floating rate obligations are traded may be less liquid than the market for investment grade securities or other types of income-producing securities, which may have an adverse impact on their market price. There is also a potential that there is no active market to trade floating rate obligations and that there may be restrictions on their transfer. As a result, the Fund may be unable to sell assignments or participations at the desired time or may be able to sell only at a price less than fair market value.

●

Portfolio Size Effect. During periods in which the relative size of the Fund’s portfolio is smaller, certain positions are likely to be more susceptible to market fluctuations and have a greater overall impact on the Fund’s performance.

●

Credit Rating Agency Risk. Credit ratings are determined by credit rating agencies such as S&P Global Ratings, Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. and Fitch Inc., and are only the opinions of such entities. Ratings assigned by a rating agency are not absolute standards of credit quality and do not evaluate market risk or the liquidity of securities. The Fund makes no warranty whatsoever regarding the ability of such ratings to accurately reflect the creditworthiness of an issuer. Any shortcomings, changes to or inefficiencies in credit rating agencies’ processes for determining credit ratings may adversely affect the credit ratings of securities held by the Fund or securities in which the Fund would otherwise invest and, as a result, may adversely affect those securities’ perceived or actual credit risk, as well as the Fund’s performance.

●

Call Risk. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to call risk. Call risk is the risk that, during periods of falling interest rates, an issuer of a fixed income security held by the Fund may call (or repay) a fixed-income security prior to maturity, resulting in a decline in the Fund’s income.

●

Market Risk. Overall securities market risks may affect the value of individual instruments in which the Fund invests. Factors such as inflation, supply chain disruptions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions throughout the world, war or political unrest, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness, including COVID-19 and its variants, or other public issues or adverse investor sentiment generally affect the securities and derivatives markets. The market value of a security or instrument also may decline because of factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry, including tariffs and other similar economic arrangements. When the value of the Fund’s investments goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.

●

Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments and that the security may go into default. Lower credit quality may lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and in shares of the Fund. Lower credit quality also may affect liquidity and make it difficult for the Fund to sell the security.

●

Fixed Income Securities Risk. A rise in interest rates typically causes bond prices to fall. The longer the duration of the bonds held by a fund, the more sensitive it will likely be to interest rate fluctuations. Duration measures the weighted average term to maturity of a bond’s expected cash flows. Duration also represents the approximate percentage change that the price of a bond would experience for a 1% change in yield. For example: the price of a bond with a duration of 5 years would change approximately 5% for a 1% change in yield. The price of a bond with a duration of 10 years

The Fund’s investments in fixed-income securities and positions in fixed-income derivatives may decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of fixed-income securities and any long positions in fixed-income derivatives held by the Fund are likely to decrease, whereas the value of its short positions in fixed-income derivatives is likely to increase. Additionally, the Fund’s investments in fixed-income securities may underperform due to inflation (or the expectation of inflation). Inflation may reduce the intrinsic value of increases in the value of the Fund. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the value of the Fund’s assets can decline.

●

Corporate Debt Risk. Corporate debt securities in which the Fund may invest are taxable debt obligations issued by corporations, are subject to the risk of the issuer’s inability to meet principal and interest payments on the obligations and may also be subject to price volatility due to factors such as market interest rates, market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity. The market value of a debt security generally reacts inversely to interest rate changes. When prevailing interest rates decline, the price of the debt obligation usually rises, and when prevailing interest rates rise, the price usually declines.

●

Liquidity and Valuation Risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio manager would like or at the price the portfolio manager believes the security is currently worth. Liquidity risk may be increased to the extent that the Fund invests in Rule 144A and restricted securities. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult.

●

Prepayment and Extension Risk. The Fund may invest in securities that are exposed to prepayment and/or extension risk. When interest rates fall, issuers of high interest debt obligations in which the Fund invest may pay off the debts earlier than expected (prepayment risk), and the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds at lower yields. When interest rates rise, issuers of lower interest debt obligations may pay off the debts later than expected (extension risk), thus keeping the Fund’s assets tied up in lower interest debt obligations. Ultimately, any unexpected behavior in interest rates could increase the volatility of the Fund’s share price and yield and could hurt the Fund’s performance. Prepayments could also create capital gains tax liability in some instances.

●

Floating Rate Obligations Risk. There may be a number of intermediate participants in floating rate obligation transactions and loan agreements that have specific rights and obligations, and terms and conditions. Unexpected changes in the interest rates on floating rate obligations could result in losses to the Fund. In addition, the secondary market on which floating rate obligations are traded may be less liquid than the market for investment grade securities or other types of income-producing securities, which may have an adverse impact on their market price. There is also a potential that there is no active market to trade floating rate obligations and that there may be restrictions on their transfer. As a result, the Fund may be unable to sell assignments or participations at the desired time or may be able to sell only at a price less than fair market value.

●

Call Risk. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to call risk. Call risk is the risk that, during periods of falling interest rates, an issuer of a fixed income security held by the Fund may call (or repay) a fixed-income security prior to maturity, resulting in a decline in the Fund’s income.

●

Odd Lot Pricing. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s special valuation procedures will result in pricing data that is completely congruent with prices that the Fund might obtain on the open market. The Adviser, in its capacity as valuation designee for the Fund, has odd lot pricing policies it employs to value odd lot securities.

●

Credit Rating Agency Risk. Credit ratings are determined by credit rating agencies such as S&P Global Ratings, Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. and Fitch Inc., and are only the opinions of such entities. Ratings assigned by a rating agency are not absolute standards of credit quality and do not evaluate market risk or the liquidity of securities. The Fund makes no warranty whatsoever regarding the ability of such ratings to accurately reflect the creditworthiness of an issuer. Any shortcomings, changes to or inefficiencies in credit rating agencies’ processes for determining credit ratings may adversely affect the credit ratings of securities held by the Fund or securities in which the Fund would otherwise invest and, as a result, may adversely affect those securities’ perceived or actual credit risk, as well as the Fund’s performance.

●

Managed Portfolio Risk. The Sub-Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular asset classes, securities or sectors may prove to be incorrect. Such errors could result in a negative return and a loss to you.

●

Sector and Securities Selection Risk. Companies in which the Fund may invest with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. Sector risk is the possibility that a certain sector may perform differently than other sectors or as the market as a whole. Although the Fund does not intend to invest in any particular sector or sectors, the Fund may, from time to time, emphasize investments in one or more sectors.

Not all U.S. government securities are backed or guaranteed by the U.S. government and different U.S. government securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk. There is a risk that the U.S. government will not make timely payments on its debt or provide financial support to U.S. government agencies, instrumentalities or sponsored enterprises if those entities are not able to meet their financial obligations.

●

Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities held by the Fund are likely to decrease. Securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, and are usually more volatile than securities with shorter durations. For example, if an instrument has an average duration of five years, a 1% increase in interest rates generally would result in a 5% decrease in the instrument’s value. A nominal interest rate can be described as the sum of a real interest rate and an expected inflation rate. Inflation-protected securities decline in value when real interest rates rise. In certain interest rate environments, such as when real interest rates are rising faster than nominal interest rates, inflation-indexed securities may experience greater losses than other fixed income securities with similar durations, and in turn, may negatively impact the performance of the Fund.

●

High-Yield/High-Risk Bond Risk. High-yield/high-risk bonds, or “junk” bonds, are bonds rated below investment-grade by the primary rating agencies, such as Standard & Poors, Fitch and Moody’s, or are unrated bonds of similar quality. The value of lower quality bonds generally is more dependent on credit risk than investment-grade bonds.

When interest rates fall, issuers of high interest debt obligations in which the Fund invest may pay off the debts earlier than expected (prepayment risk), and the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds at lower yields. When interest rates rise, issuers of lower interest debt obligations may pay off the debts later than expected (extension risk), thus keeping the Fund’s assets tied up in lower interest debt obligations. Ultimately, any unexpected behavior in interest rates could increase the volatility of the Fund’s share price and yield and could hurt the Fund’s performance. Prepayments could also create capital gains tax liability in some instances.

●

Portfolio Turnover Risk. The strategy used by the Fund may result in high portfolio turnover. A higher portfolio turnover will result in higher transactional costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account.

●

Odd Lot Pricing. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s special valuation procedures will result in pricing data that is completely congruent with prices that the Fund might obtain on the open market. The Adviser, in its capacity as valuation designee for the Fund, has odd lot pricing policies it employs to value odd lot securities.

●

Credit Rating Agency Risk. Credit ratings are determined by credit rating agencies such as S&P Global Ratings, Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. and Fitch Inc., and are only the opinions of such entities. Ratings assigned by a rating agency are not absolute standards of credit quality and do not evaluate market risk or the liquidity of securities. The Fund makes no warranty whatsoever regarding the ability of such ratings to accurately reflect the creditworthiness of an issuer. Any shortcomings, changes to or inefficiencies in credit rating agencies’ processes for determining credit ratings may adversely affect the credit ratings of securities held by the Fund or securities in which the Fund would otherwise invest and, as a result, may adversely affect those securities’ perceived or actual credit risk, as well as the Fund’s performance.

●

Market Risk. Overall securities market risks may affect the value of individual instruments in which the Fund invests. Factors such as inflation, supply chain disruptions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions throughout the world, war or political unrest, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness, including COVID-19 and its variants, or other public issues or adverse investor sentiment generally affect the securities and derivatives markets. The market value of a security or instrument also may decline because of factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry, including tariffs and other similar economic arrangements. When the value of the Fund’s investments goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.

●

Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments and that the security may go into default. To the extent the Fund invests in securities of lower credit qualities, such lower credit qualities may lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and in shares of the Fund. Lower credit quality also may affect liquidity and make it difficult for the Fund to sell the security.

●

Fixed Income Securities Risk. A rise in interest rates typically causes bond prices to fall. The longer the duration of the bonds held by a fund, the more sensitive it will likely be to interest rate fluctuations. Duration measures the weighted average term to maturity of a bond’s expected cash flows. Duration also represents the approximate percentage change that the price of a bond would experience for a 1% change in yield. For example: the price of a bond with a duration of 5 years would change approximately 5% for a 1% change in yield. The price of a bond with a duration of 10 years would be expected to decline by approximately 10% if its yield was to rise by +1%. Bond yields tend to fluctuate in response to changes in market levels of interest rates. Generally, if interest rates rise, a bond’s yield will also rise in response; the duration of the bond will determine how much the price of the bond will change in response to the change in yield. The Fund does not have a targeted dollar weighted average maturity or duration for the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests.

The Fund’s investments in fixed-income securities and positions in fixed-income derivatives may decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of fixed-income securities and any long positions in fixed-income derivatives held by the Fund are likely to decrease, whereas the value of its short positions in fixed-income derivatives is likely to increase. Additionally, the Fund’s investments in fixed-income securities may underperform due to inflation (or the expectation of inflation). Inflation may reduce the intrinsic value of increases in the value of the Fund. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the value of the Fund’s assets can decline.

●

Corporate Debt Risk. Corporate debt securities in which the Fund may invest are taxable debt obligations issued by corporations, are subject to the risk of the issuer’s inability to meet principal and interest payments on the obligations and may also be subject to price volatility due to factors such as market interest rates, market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity. The market value of a debt security generally reacts inversely to interest rate changes. When prevailing interest rates decline, the price of the debt obligation usually rises, and when prevailing interest rates rise, the price usually declines.

●

Liquidity and Valuation Risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio manager would like or at the price the portfolio manager believes the security is currently worth. Liquidity risk may be increased to the extent that the Fund invests in Rule 144A and restricted securities. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult.

●

Prepayment and Extension Risk. When interest rates fall, issuers of high interest debt obligations in which the Fund invest may pay off the debts earlier than expected (prepayment risk), and the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds at lower yields. When interest rates rise, issuers of lower interest debt obligations may pay off the debts later than expected (extension risk), thus keeping the Fund’s assets tied up in lower interest debt obligations. Ultimately, any unexpected behavior in interest rates could increase the volatility of the Fund’s share price and yield and could hurt the Fund’s performance. Prepayments could also create capital gains tax liability in some instances.

●

Floating Rate Obligations Risk. There may be a number of intermediate participants in floating rate obligation transactions and loan agreements that have specific rights and obligations, and terms and conditions. Unexpected changes in the interest rates on floating rate obligations could result in losses to the Fund. In addition, the secondary market on which floating rate obligations are traded may be less liquid than the market for investment grade securities or other types of income-producing securities, which may have an adverse impact on their market price. There is also a potential that there is no active market to trade floating rate obligations and that there may be restrictions on their transfer. As a result, the Fund may be unable to sell assignments or participations at the desired time or may be able to sell only at a price less than fair market value.

●

Call Risk. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to call risk. Call risk is the risk that, during periods of falling interest rates, an issuer of a fixed income security held by the Fund may call (or repay) a fixed-income security prior to maturity, resulting in a decline in the Fund’s income.

●

Rule 144A Securities Risk. Rule 144A securities that are not registered for sale to the general public under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, but which may be resold to certain institutional investors. An insufficient number of qualified institutional buyers interested in purchasing Rule 144A securities at a particular time could affect negatively a Fund’s ability to dispose of such securities promptly or at expected prices. As such, the Fund’s investment in Rule 144A securities may subject the Fund to enhanced liquidity risk and potentially increase the Fund’s exposure to illiquid investments.

●

Bank Loan Risk. The Fund may invest in bank loans. Bank loans are obligations of companies or other entities entered into in connection with recapitalizations, acquisitions, and refinancings. The Fund’s investments in bank loans are generally acquired as a participation interest in, or assignment of, loans originated by a lender or other financial institution. These investments may include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt securities. The bank loans underlying these securities often involve borrowers with low credit ratings whose financial conditions are troubled or uncertain, including companies that are highly leveraged or in bankruptcy proceedings. Participation interests and assignments involve credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. In addition, certain loans may not be “securities” under the federal securities laws and the holders of such loans may not have the protections of the federal securities laws.

●

Non-U.S. Securities Risk. Non-U.S. securities, in which an underlying ETF could invest, are subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuations, generally higher volatility and lower liquidity than U.S. securities, less developed securities markets and economic systems and political and economic instability.

●

Active Management Risk. The portfolio managers’ judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular asset classes, securities or sectors may prove to be incorrect. Such errors could result in a negative return and a loss to you.

●

Affiliated ETF Risk. The Adviser receives advisory fees from underlying AAI ETFs that are payable to it pursuant to the advisory agreements of those underlying AAI ETFs. It is possible that a conflict of interest among the Fund and the AAI ETFs could affect how the Adviser fulfills its fiduciary duties to the Fund and the AAI ETFs. The Adviser may have an incentive to take into account the effect on an AAI ETF in which the Fund may invest in determining whether, and under what circumstances, to purchase or sell shares in that AAI ETF. To seek to mitigate risks of conflicts of interest arising from investments in affiliated investment companies, the Fund has adopted an expense structure under which the Fund does not pay advisory fees to the Adviser. For non-advisory services, the Fund pays an administrative fee to the administrator in addition to other expenses described in the Fund’s fees and expenses table. These services include general fund administration services, transfer agency services, as well as bookkeeping and accounting services. There is no assurance that these measures will completely mitigate conflicts of interest in the selection of AAI ETFs.

●

Sector and Securities Selection Risk. The performance of an underlying ETF is related to the economic sectors that AAI may choose to emphasize or deemphasize from time to time, as well as to the individual securities selected by AAI within those sectors. The investment returns for particular economic sectors will fluctuate and may be lower than other sectors. In addition, the individual securities chosen for investment within a particular sector may underperform other securities within that same sector.

●

Conflicts of Interest Risk. The Fund is subject to certain potential conflicts of interest arising out of the activities of its service providers. For example, the Fund’s distributor, ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc., or its affiliates, currently provide distribution services to certain ETFs which could be purchased by the Fund.

●

Interest Rate Risk. The fixed-income securities in which an underlying ETF may invest may be of any credit quality or duration. Duration is a weighted measure of the length of time a bond will pay out and takes into account interest payments that occur throughout the course of holding the bond. In general, the longer the bond’s duration, the more its price will drop as interest rates go up. When interest rates rise, the value of the underlying ETF’s investments in fixed-income securities will generally decrease, which means the Fund’s NAV will likewise decrease.

●

Liquidity and Valuation Risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio manager would like or at the price the portfolio manager believes the security is currently worth. Liquidity risk may be increased to the extent that the Fund invests in Rule 144A and restricted securities. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult.

●

Income Generation Risk. An underlying ETF may fail to generate anticipated levels of income due to, among other factors, unanticipated market conditions or the materialization of risks associated with the securities owned by an underlying ETF, which failure in turn could negatively impact the underlying ETF’s ability to meet its stated investment objective.

●

Style Investing Risk. To the extent an underlying ETF focuses on a particular style of stocks (such as growth or value), its performance may at times be better or worse than the performance of funds that focus on other types of stocks or that have a broader investment style. Growth stocks, which are characterized by high price-to- earnings ratios, may be more volatile than value stocks with lower price-to-earnings ratios.

●

High Yield Securities Risk. An underlying ETF may invest in high yield securities. High yield securities generally offer a higher current yield than that available from higher grade issues, but typically involve greater risk. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds.” The ability of issuers of high yield securities to make timely payments of interest and principal may be adversely impacted by adverse changes in general economic conditions, changes in the financial condition of the issuers and price fluctuations in response to changes in interest rates. High yield securities are less liquid than investment grade securities and may be difficult to price or sell.

●

Emerging Markets Risk. An underlying ETF may invest in securities of foreign issuers, which are subject to certain inherent risks, such as political or economic disruptions or instability of the country of issue, the difficulty of predicting international trade patterns, foreign currency fluctuations, and the possibility of imposition of exchange controls. Such securities may also be subject to greater variations in price than securities of domestic corporations. Foreign securities may be less liquid and involve higher transaction costs, as foreign securities markets may be less efficient than U.S. markets. In addition, there may be less publicly available information about a foreign company than about a domestic company.

●

Futures Contract Risk. Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an underlying asset at a price, date and time specified when the contract is made. Futures contracts traded in the over-the-counter markets are frequently referred to as forward contracts. Entering into a contract to buy is commonly referred to as buying or purchasing a contract or holding a long position. Entering into a contract to sell is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position. The Fund can buy or sell futures contracts on portfolio securities or indexes and engage in foreign currency forward contracts. To the extent the Fund uses futures contracts, which are a type of derivative, it is subject to the risk of loss caused by unanticipated market movements. In addition, there may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in the prices of futures contracts and the value of their underlying instruments or indexes and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain futures contracts.

●

Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors that affect securities markets generally or factors affecting specific industries, sectors or companies in which the Fund invests, including tariffs and other similar economic arrangements.

●

Non-U.S. Securities Risk. Non-U.S. securities are subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuations, generally higher volatility and lower liquidity than U.S. securities, less developed securities markets and economic systems and political and economic instability.

●

Market Risk. Overall securities market risks may affect the value of individual instruments in which the Fund invests. Factors such as inflation, supply chain disruptions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions throughout the world, war or political unrest, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness, including COVID-19 and its variants, or other public issues or adverse investor sentiment generally affect the securities and derivatives markets. The market value of a security or instrument also may decline because of factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry, including tariffs and other similar economic arrangements. When the value of the Fund’s investments goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.

●

Micro-, Small- and Mid-Cap Risk. From time to time, the Fund may invest significantly in micro-capitalization, small-capitalization and mid-capitalization stocks, which are often more volatile and less liquid than investments in larger companies. Therefore, the securities of smaller and mid-size companies may be subject to greater and more abrupt price fluctuations.

●

Indian Financials Sector Risk. The Indian financials sector is subject to extensive governmental control, protection and regulation, which may adversely affect the scope of financials sector firm activities, the prices they can charge and the amount of capital they must maintain. Policies and regulations implemented by the Reserve Bank of India, which serves as the country’s central bank, may also have an adverse impact on Indian financial institutions, including those in the banking and other financial industries. The Indian financials sector is exposed to risks that may impact the value of investments in the financials sector more severely than investments outside this sector, including operating with substantial financial leverage. The Indian financials sector may also be adversely affected by increases in interest rates and loan losses, decreases in the availability of money or asset valuations and adverse conditions in other related markets. India poses additional unique risks with respect to the financials sector, such as the fact that only a small portion of the population holds insurance.

The banking industry and other financial industries are subject to extensive government regulation and can be significantly affected by changes in interest rates, general economic conditions, price and market competition, the imposition of premium rate caps or other changes in government regulation or tax law. Certain segments of the insurance industry can be significantly affected by mortality and morbidity rates, environmental clean-up costs and catastrophic events such as earthquakes, hurricanes and terrorist acts.

●

Loss of FPI Registration. Investment by the Fund in India is dependent on the registration of the Fund as an FPI. In the event that this registration is terminated, the Fund might be required to liquidate its positions in Indian securities at an inopportune time or upon disadvantageous terms.

Any investigations of, or actions against, the Fund or any of their shareholders initiated by the SEBI or any other Indian regulatory authority may impose a ban of the investment and trading activities of the Fund.

Additionally, SEBI has issued the SEBI (Foreign Portfolio Investors) Regulations 2019, as may be amended from time to time, and the Master Circular for Foreign Portfolio Investors, Designated Depository Participants and Eligible Foreign Investors, both of which include guidelines on eligibility norms and know your customer (“KYC”) guidelines with respect to FPIs. Failure to comply with the guidelines may lead to a loss of FPI registration for the Fund

●

Currency Risk. The risk that fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and non-U.S. currencies may cause the value of the Fund’s non-U.S. investments to decline in terms of U.S. dollars. Additionally, certain of the Fund’s foreign currency transactions may give rise to ordinary income or loss to the extent such income or loss results from fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency.

●

Equity Risk. The values of equity securities in the Fund will fluctuate and, as a result, the Fund’s share price may decline suddenly or over a sustained period of time due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as inflation, supply chain disruptions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions throughout the world, war or political unrest, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness, or other public issues or adverse investor sentiment generally. The market value of a security or instrument also may decline because of factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry, including tariffs and other similar economic arrangements.

●

Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund may trade all or a significant portion of the securities in its portfolio in seeking to achieve its investment objective. A high

●

Geographic Risk. The Fund may focus in a single region of the world, and as such, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile than that of a fund that invests globally. If securities of that region fall out of favor, it may cause the Fund to underperform funds that do not concentrate in a single region of the world.

●

Non-U.S. Securities Risk. Non-U.S. securities are subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuations, generally higher volatility and lower liquidity than U.S. securities, less developed securities markets and economic systems and political and economic instability.

●

Mining, Minerals, and Metals Risk. Investments in mining, minerals and metals companies may be speculative and may be subject to greater price volatility than investments in other types of companies. The special risks of mining, minerals and metals investments include: (i) changes in international monetary policies or economic and political conditions can affect the supply of gold and precious metals and consequently the value of mining, minerals and metals company investments; (ii) the United States or foreign governments may pass laws or regulations limiting metals investments for strategic or other policy reasons; (iii) the governments of countries with supplies of gold may pass laws or regulations limiting metals investments for strategic or other policy reasons; and (iv) increased environmental or labor costs may depress the value of mining, minerals and metals investments.

●

Fluctuation in Net Asset Value. The NAV of the Fund’s Shares will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s holdings. The market prices of the Shares will generally fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV as well as the relative supply of and demand for the Shares on Nasdaq. The Adviser cannot predict whether the Shares will trade below, at, or above their NAV.

●

Shareholder Concentration Risk. A large percentage of the Fund’s shares are held by a small number of shareholders, including persons and entities related to the Adviser. A large redemption by one or more of these shareholders could materially increase the Fund’s transaction costs, which would negatively impact the Fund’s performance and could cause adverse tax consequences for the remaining shareholders of the Fund. The ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities^® Strategy Fund intends to purchase a significant percentage of the shares of the Fund sold over the initial two to three months following the Fund’s commencement of operations.
