[1] Other Expenses are estimated for the current fiscal year and include the expenses of the Fund’s consolidated wholly-owned subsidiary. “Other Expenses” does not include the fees paid to the counterparties to the Fund’s swaps, or the management fees, performance fees, and expenses of the trading vehicles or commodity pools (“Underlying Assets”) that serve as the reference asset of the swaps. These fees and expenses, which are not reflected in the Annual Fund Operating Expenses table or example, are embedded in the return of the swaps and represent an indirect cost of investing in the Fund. Generally, the swap counterparties charge 0.25% of the notional value of the swap, which is estimated to be 100% of the Fund’s assets for the first fiscal year, and 1% on the notional value of the Underlying Investments which are estimated to be an average of 35% of the Fund’s assets for the first fiscal year and the performance fees of the Underlying Asset, which are paid to the commodity trading adviser (“CTA”), range up to 22.5% of the net new trading profits.
[2] The Fund’s investment advisor, SkyRock Investment Management, LLC (the “Advisor”) has entered into an expense limitation agreement with the Fund (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”) under which it has agreed to waive or reduce its management fees and assume other expenses of the Fund in an amount that limits the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (exclusive of (i) brokerage fees and commissions, (ii) acquired fund fees and expenses; (iii) fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including, for example, option and swap fees and expenses); (iv) borrowing costs (such as interest expense); (v) taxes; and (vii) extraordinary expenses, such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the Advisor)) to not more than 1.74% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. This contractual arrangement is in effect through
February 28, 2023, unless terminated by the Board of Trustees of the Fund (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) at any time. The Advisor cannot recoup from the fund any amounts paid to the Advisor under the expense limitation agreement.
Example.
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem (or you hold) all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The Example includes the Fund’s contractual expense limitation through
February 28, 2023. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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 commenced operations on or following the date of this prospectus, the Fund has no reportable portfolio turnover rate.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The Fund pursues its investment objective by implementing a fixed income strategy and a managed futures strategy. The Fund will invest, under normal circumstances, approximately 70-75% of the Fund’s assets in fixed income assets (investment grade corporate bonds, high yield corporate bonds, treasuries, and preferred securities). Additionally, the Fund may utilize exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) and/or mutual funds to gain exposure to fixed income securities. The Fund may invest directly or indirectly in “junk bonds,” fixed income securities that are rated below investment grade (securities rated below BBB by Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) and Baa3 by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”). The Fund expects to invest between 25% and 50% in junk bonds. The Fund may invest in fixed income instruments with fixed or adjustable (floating) rates. The Fund’s fixed income securities can be of any duration or maturity.
The Advisor manages the Fund’s fixed income strategy. The Advisor’s investment decision making process is based upon independent, fundamental bottom-up research to identify and invest in securities that aim to protect principal, maximize liquidity, and provide risk-adjusted returns that exceed what would have been earned if the assets were held in cash. The Advisor plans to use macro-economic projections, fundamental company and industry analysis, and technical analysis of individual issuers to strategically position the Fund while making tactical adjustments as investing conditions change. When making tactical adjustments and selecting portfolio securities, the Advisor will consider a number of factors, including fundamental and technical analysis to assess the relative risks and reward potential. The Advisor will rely on a combination of third-party research and analytic providers.
Typhon Capital Management, LLC serves as Sub-Advisor to the Fund and manages the Fund’s managed futures strategy. The Fund executes its managed futures strategy by investing up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary will invest its assets in total return swaps that provide exposure to the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (the “GSCI”) and a multi-strategy, multi-manager futures portfolio (the “Multi-Manager Portfolio”).  The Sub-Advisor is a Commodity Trading Advisor (“CTA”) and Commodity Pool Operator (“CPO”) registered with the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
The Sub-Advisor will use a systematic trading program to manage exposure to the GSCI using a total return swap. This exposure will range from 25% to 100% of the Fund’s net asset value. The main factor determining the GSCI exposure is the program’s determination of whether the value of the GSCI has been increasing over last 1-5 months (an uptrending environment) or has been the same or decreasing over the last 1-5 months (a downtrending environment) using technical indicators (primarily price momentum indicators). The Sub-Advisor will also allocate to another total return swap to provide exposure to the Multi-Manager Portfolio ranging from 10% to 150% of the Fund’s overall net asset value. The Fund may be leveraged as a result. The Sub-Advisor’s systematic trading program will generally increase the GSCI exposure relative to the Multi-Manager Portfolio in environments when the GSCI is in an uptrending environment and lower the relative exposure when the GSCI is in a downtrending environment as measured by the technical indicators noted above.
PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND
The loss of your money is a principal risk of investing in the Fund. Investments in the Fund are subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of some or the entire principal amount invested. The Fund is subject to certain risks, including the principal risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Fund’s net asset value per shares (“NAV”), trading price, yield, total return, and ability to meet its investment objectives. Generally, the Fund will be subject to the following principal risks:
Fixed Income Risk. The prices of fixed income securities (bonds) respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions about the creditworthiness of individual issuers. Fixed income securities will decrease in value if interest rates rise and vice versa, and the volatility of lower-rated securities is even greater than that of higher-rated securities. Also, longer-term securities are more volatile, so the average maturity or duration of these securities affects risk. Floating rate securities may decline in value if market interest rates or interest rates paid by them do not move as expected. Conversely, floating rate securities will not generally rise in value if market interest rates decline. Floating rate securities may be subject to greater liquidity risk than other debt securities, meaning that there may be limitations on the Fund’s ability to sell the securities at any given time. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund's share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments. The lower the rating of a debt security, the greater its risks. In addition, these risks are often magnified for securities rated below investment grade, often referred to as “junk bonds,” and adverse changes in economic conditions or market perception are likely to cause issuers of these securities to be unable to meet their obligations to repay principal and interest to investors.
High-Yield Risk. The Fund may invest in fixed income securities that are rated below investment grade (also known as “junk”). Securities in this rating category are speculative and are usually issued by companies without long track records of sales and earnings, or by those companies with questionable credit strength. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances may have a greater effect on the ability of issuers of these securities to make principal and interest payments than they do on issuers of higher grade securities. The retail secondary market for junk bonds may be less liquid than that of higher-rated securities and adverse conditions could make it difficult at times to sell certain securities or could result in lower prices. Additionally, these instruments are unsecured and may be subordinated to other creditor’s claims.
Preferred Securities Risk. Investing in preferred securities involves the following risks: (i) certain preferred securities contain provisions that allow an issuer under certain conditions to skip or defer distributions; (ii) preferred securities may be subject to redemption, including at the issuer’s call, and, in the event of redemption, the Fund may not be able to reinvest the proceeds at comparable or favorable rates of return; (iii) preferred securities are generally subordinated to bonds and other debt securities in an issuer’s capital structure in terms of priority for corporate income and liquidation payments; (iv) preferred securities may trade less frequently and in a more limited volume and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements than many other securities; and (v) preferred securities may have a negative yield to call (negative return the Fund receives if the security is held until the call date), which could result in losses for the Fund and its shareholders if an issuer elects to call the security.
U.S. Government Securities Risk. U.S. government securities risk refers to the risk that debt securities issued or guaranteed by certain U.S. Government agencies, instrumentalities, and sponsored enterprises are not supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, and so investments in their securities or obligations issued by them involve credit risk greater than investments in other types of U.S. Government securities.
Fund Investing Risk. Investments in other investment companies subject the Fund to additional operating and management fees and expenses. Investors in the Fund will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the funds in which the Fund invests, in addition to the Fund’s direct fees and expenses. The Fund’s performance depends in part upon the performance of the investment advisor to each underlying fund, the strategies and instruments used by the underlying funds, and the Advisor’s ability to select underlying funds and effectively allocate fund assets among them. In addition, the Fund’s investment in ETFs may subject the Fund to additional risks such as the possibility that an ETF may experience a lack of liquidity that can result in greater volatility than its underlying securities, an ETF may trade at a premium or discount to its net asset value, or an ETF may not replicate exactly the performance of the benchmark index it seeks to track. In addition, investing in an ETF may also be costlier than if the Fund had owned the underlying securities directly. The Fund and, indirectly, shareholders of the Fund, bear a proportionate share of the ETF’s expenses, which include management and advisory fees and other expenses. In addition, the Fund will pay brokerage commissions in connection with the purchase and sale of the ETFs in the Fund’s portfolio.
Interest Rate Risk. A rise in interest rates may cause a decline in the value of the Fund’s fixed income securities (bonds) and preferred stocks, especially bonds with longer maturities. A decline in interest rates may cause the Fund to experience a decline in its income. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, interest rate risk may be heightened.
Inflation Risk. Fixed income securities are subject to inflation risk. Because inflation reduces the purchasing power of income produced by existing fixed income securities, the prices at which fixed income securities trade will be reduced to compensate for the fact that the income they produce is worth less. This potential decrease in market value of fixed income securities would result in a loss in the value of the Fund’s portfolio.
Rating Agencies Risks. Ratings are not an absolute standard of quality, but rather general indicators that reflect only the view of the originating rating agencies from which an explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained. There is no assurance that a particular rating will continue for any given period of time or that any such rating will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely. Such changes may negatively affect the liquidity or market price of the securities in which the Fund invests. The ratings of securitized assets may not adequately reflect the credit risk of those assets due to their structure.
Liquidity Risk. Liquidity risk exists when particular investments would be difficult to purchase or sell, possibly preventing the Fund from selling such illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price, or possibly requiring the Fund to dispose of other investments at unfavorable times or prices in order to satisfy its obligations.
Credit Risk. Credit risk refers to the risk that an issuer or counterparty will fail to pay its obligations to the Fund when they are due. As a result, the Fund’s income might be reduced, the value of the Fund’s investment might fall, and/or the Fund could lose the entire amount of its investment. Changes in the financial condition of an issuer or counterparty, changes in specific economic, social, or political conditions that affect a particular type of security or other instrument or an issuer, and changes in economic, social or political conditions generally can increase the risk of default by an issuer or counterparty, which can affect a security’s or other instrument’s credit quality or value and an issuer’s or counterparty’s ability to pay interest and principal when due. The values of lower-quality debt securities (commonly known as “junk bonds”) tend to be particularly sensitive to these changes.
Commodities Risk. The Fund may have exposure to the commodities markets, subjecting the Fund to risks not associated with investments in traditional securities. The value of commodities related investments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, including drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, and tariffs. The prices of industrial metals, precious metals, agriculture, and livestock commodities may fluctuate widely due to changes in value, supply and demand, and governmental regulatory policies.
Derivatives Risk. The derivative instruments in which the Fund may invest, including futures and swaps, including total return swaps, may be more volatile than other instruments. The risks associated with investments in derivatives also include liquidity, interest rate, market, credit and management risks, mispricing or improper valuation. Changes in the market value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate, or index, and the Fund could lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, if a derivative is being used for hedging purposes there can be no assurance given that each derivative position will achieve a perfect correlation with the security or currency against which it is being hedged, or that a particular derivative position will be available when sought by the portfolio manager.
Swap Risk: Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses. The Fund is also subject to credit risk on the amount the Fund expects to receive from swap agreement counterparties. If a swap counterparty defaults on its payment obligations to the Fund, this default will cause the value of your investment in the Fund to decrease.
Futures Risk: The use of futures involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) leverage risk (ii) risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the futures contract may not correlate perfectly with the underlying index.  Investments in futures involve leverage, which means a small percentage of assets invested in futures can have a disproportionately large impact on the Fund.  This risk could cause the Fund to lose more than the principal amount invested.  Futures contracts may become mispriced or improperly valued when compared to the adviser’s expectation and may not produce the desired investment results.  Additionally, changes in the value of futures contracts may not track or correlate perfectly with the underlying index because of temporary, or even long-term, supply and demand imbalances and because futures do not pay dividends unlike the stocks upon which they are based.
Leveraging Risk. The use of certain derivatives may increase leveraging risk and adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, rate, or index may result in a loss substantially greater than the amount paid for the derivative. The use of leverage may exaggerate any increase or decrease in the net asset value, causing the Fund to be more volatile. The use of leverage may increase expenses and increase the impact of a Fund’s other risks. The use of leverage may cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations or to meet regulatory requirements resulting in increased volatility of returns. Leverage, including borrowing, may cause the Fund to be more volatile than if the Fund had not been leveraged.
Tax Risk. By investing in commodities indirectly through the Subsidiary, the Fund will obtain exposure to the commodities markets within the federal tax requirements that apply to the Fund. However, because the Subsidiary is a controlled foreign corporation, any income received from its investments will be passed through to the Fund as ordinary income, which may be taxed at less favorable rates than capital gains.
Volatility Risk. The Fund’s investments may fluctuate in value over a short period of time. This may cause the Fund’s net asset value per share to experience significant changes in value over short periods of time.
Counterparty Credit Risk. The stability and liquidity of many derivative transactions depends in large part on the creditworthiness of the parties to the transactions. If a counterparty to such a transaction defaults, exercising contractual rights may involve delays or costs for the Fund. Furthermore, there is a risk that a counterparty could become the subject of insolvency proceedings, and that the recovery of securities and other assets from such counterparty will be delayed or be of a value less than the value of the securities or assets originally entrusted to such counterparty.
Subsidiary Risk. The Subsidiary will not be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”) and, unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, will not be subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, under which the Fund and the Subsidiary, respectively, are organized, could result in the inability of the Fund and/or Subsidiary to operate as described in this Prospectus and could negatively affect the Fund and its shareholders.
Investment Advisor and Sub-Advisor Risk. The Advisor’s and Sub-Advisor’s ability to choose suitable investments has a significant impact on the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objectives.
Limited History of Operations. The Fund is a new mutual fund and has a limited history of operations for investors to evaluate, may not attract sufficient assets to operate efficiently, and the Advisor has not previously managed a mutual fund.
General Market Risk. The Fund’s NAV and investment return will fluctuate based upon changes in the value of its portfolio securities. Certain securities held by the Fund may be worth less than the price originally paid for them, or less than they were worth at an earlier time.
COVID-19 Risk. The outbreak of an infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many countries or the entire global economy, individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. In addition, the impact of infectious illnesses in emerging market countries may be greater due to generally less established healthcare systems. Public health crises caused by the COVID-19 outbreak may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally. As such, issuers of debt securities with operations, productions, offices, and/or personnel in (or other exposure to) areas affected with the virus may experience significant disruptions to their business and/or holdings. The potential impact on the credit markets may include market illiquidity, defaults and bankruptcies, among other consequences, particularly on issuers in the airline, travel and leisure and retail sectors. The extent to which COVID-19 will affect the Fund, the Fund’s service providers’ and/or issuer’s operations and results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain COVID-19. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected. As a result, whether or not the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in or with significant exposure to countries experiencing economic, political and/or financial difficulties, the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by such events. If there is a significant decline in the value of the Fund’s portfolio, this may impact the Fund’s asset coverage levels for certain kinds of derivatives and other portfolio transactions. The duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and its impact on the global economy cannot be determined with certainty.
Cybersecurity Risk. As part of its business, the Advisor processes, stores, and transmits large amounts of electronic information, including information relating to the transactions of the Fund. The Advisor and the Fund are therefore susceptible to cybersecurity risk. Cybersecurity failures or breaches of the Fund or its service providers have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability of Fund shareholders to transact business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties and/or reputational damage. The Fund and its shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result.
