Dear Ms. Larkin:

 

On behalf of the Trust, we hereby request acceleration of the registration statement that was filed on April 18, 2016 on Form N-1A (SEC Accession No. 0001580642-16-008135) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), as Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”), and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), so the registration statement on Form N-1A would be declared effective on April 22, 2016. Pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s authority under Rule 461(a) under the 1933 Act, we have attached a separate letter from Northern Lights Distributors, LLC, the Funds’ principal underwriter, requesting that effectiveness of the amendment to the registration statement be accelerated to Friday, April 22, 2016 or as soon as practicable thereafter.

The Trust acknowledges that (i) should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any actions with respect to the filing, (ii) the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Trust from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing, and (iii) the Trust may not assert this action as defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

Please direct any questions you may have with respect to the foregoing to David J. Baum (at 202-239-3346) of Alston & Bird LLP.

 
 

 

Very truly yours,
