How has the Fund changed? 

  • On March 28, 2025, BNY Mellon Tax Managed Growth Fund ("Predecessor Fund"), a series of BNY Mellon Investment Funds IV, Inc., was reorganized into the Fund ("Reorganization"). The Fund commenced operations upon completion of the Reorganization and continues the operations of the Predecessor Fund.

Changes in or Disagreements with Accountants

  • Starting March 28, 2025, in connection with the Reorganization noted above, Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) became the independent registered public accounting firm of the Fund and KPMG LLP was discharged as the Predecessor Fund's accounting firm. EY serves as the independent registered public accounting firm for all funds in the BNY Mellon ETF Trust II. There were no disagreements with the former accounting firm during the Predecessor Fund's fiscal years ended October 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023 and the subsequent interim period through March 28, 2025. 

This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund since November 1, 2024. For more complete information, you may review the Fund’s current prospectus, dated March 31, 2025 at bny.com/investments/etfliterature or upon request at 1-833-383-2696 or by calling your financial adviser.

is
the

of
the

As
of
the
close

on
March
28,
2025,
pursuant
to
an
Agreement
and
Plan
of
Reorganization
(the

previously

all
of

BNY
Mellon
Tax
Managed
Growth

(the
“Predecessor
Fund”),
a
series
of
BNY
Mellon
Investment
Funds
IV,
Inc.,
were
transferred
to
the
fund
in
a
tax
free
exchange
for
whole
ETF
shares.
Shareholders
of
Class
I
shares
of
the
Predecessor
Fund
received
Class
ETF
shares
of
the
fund
in
each
case
in
an
amount
equal
to
the
aggregate
net
asset
value
of
their
investment
in
the
Predecessor
Fund
at
the
time
of
the
exchange.
Prior
to
the
date
of
the
exchange
the
Predecessor
Fund
redesignated
Class
A
and
Class
C
shares
into
Class
I
shares.
The
net

value
of
the
fund’s
shares
on
the
close
of
business
on
March
28,
2025,
after
the
reorganization
was
$30.69
for
Class
I
shares,
and
a
total
of
3,645,886
Class
I
shares,
representing
net
assets
of
$111,903,401
(including
$65,555,300
net
appreciation
on
investments)
were
issued
to
shareholder
of
the
Predecessor
Fund
in
the
exchange.
The
Predecessor
Fund
is
the
accounting
survivor
and
its
historical
performance
is
presented
for
periods
through
March
28,
2025.
The
shares
of
the
fund
are
referred
to
herein
as
“Shares”
or
“Fund
Shares.”
Fund
Shares
are
listed
and
traded
on
NYSE
Arca,
Inc.
The
market
price
of
each
Share
may
differ
to
some
degree
from
the
fund’s
net
asset
value
(“NAV”).
Unlike
conventional
mutual
funds,
the
fund
issues
and
redeems
Shares
on
a
continuous
basis,
at
NAV,
only
in
a
large
specified
number
of
Shares,
each
called
a
“Creation
Unit”.
Creation
Units
are
issued
and
redeemed
principally
in
exchange
for
the
deposit
or
delivery
of
a
basket
of
securities.
Except
when
aggregated
in
Creation
Units
by
Authorized
Participants,
the
Shares
are
not
individually
redeemable
securities
of
the
fund.
Individual
Fund
Shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
the
NYSE
Arca,
Inc.,
other
national
securities
exchanges,
electronic
crossing
networks
and
other
alternative
trading
systems
through
your
broker-dealer
at
market
prices.
Because
Fund
Shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
at
NAV,
Fund
Shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(discount).
When
buying
or
selling
Shares
in
the
secondary
market,
you
may
incur
costs
attributable
to
the
difference
between
the
highest
price
a
buyer
is
willing
to
pay
to
purchase
Shares
of
the
fund
(bid)
and
the
lowest
price
a
seller
is
willing
to
accept
for
Shares
of
the
fund
(ask).

Rules
and

releases
of
the
SEC
under

laws
are
also
sources
of

for

is an
investment
company
and
applies
the
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
of
the
FASB
ASC
Topic
946
Financial
Services-Investment
Companies. The
fund’s
financial
statements
are
prepared
in
accordance
with
GAAP,
which
may
require
the
use
of
management
estimates
and
assumptions.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.  
The
Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
indemnifications.
The
fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown.
The
fund
does
not
anticipate
recognizing
any
loss
related
to
these
arrangements. 
(a)
Portfolio
valuation:
The
fair
value
of
a
financial
instrument
is
the
amount
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date
(i.e.,
the
exit
price).
GAAP
establishes
a
fair
value
hierarchy
that
prioritizes
the
inputs
of
valuation
techniques
used
to
measure
fair
value.
This
hierarchy
gives
the
highest
priority
to
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
or
liabilities
(Level
1
measurements)
and
the
lowest
priority
to
unobservable
inputs
(Level
3
measurements).
Additionally,
GAAP
provides
guidance
on
determining
whether
the
volume
and
activity
in
a
market
has
decreased
significantly
and
whether
such
a
decrease
in
activity
results
in
transactions
that
are
not
orderly.
GAAP
requires
enhanced
disclosures
around
valuation
inputs
and
techniques
used
during
annual
and
interim
periods.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
fund’s
investments
relating
to
fair
value
measurements.
These
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
investments.

(including
quoted

risk,
etc.).
Level
3
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments).
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the

associated

Changes
in
valuation
techniques
may
result
in
transfers
in
or
out
of
an
assigned
level
within
the
disclosure
hierarchy.
Valuation
techniques
used
to
value
the
fund’s
investments
are
as
follows:
The
Trust’s Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”)
has
designated
the
Adviser
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
to
make
all
fair
value
determinations
with
respect
to
the
fund’s
portfolio
of
investments,
subject
to
the
Board’s
oversight
and
pursuant
to
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Act.
Investments
in
equity
securities,
including
ETFs
(but
not
including
investments
in
other
open-end
registered
investment
companies),
generally
are
valued
at
the
last
sales
price
on
the
day
of
valuation
on
the
securities
exchange
or
national
securities
market
on
which
such
securities
primarily
are

Securities
listed
on
the
National
Association
of
Securities
Dealers
Automated
Quotation
System
(“NASDAQ”)
for
which

will
be

official
closing
prices
for
a
NASDAQ
market-listed
security
on
that
day,
the
security
will
be
valued
at
the
average
of
the
most
recent
bid
and
asked
prices.
Bid
price
is
used
when
no
asked
price
is
available.
Open
short
positions
for
which
there
is
no

day
are
valued
at
the
lowest
asked
price.
Registered
investment
companies
that
are
not
traded
on
an
exchange
are
valued
at
their
net
asset
value.
All
of
the
preceding
securities
are
generally
categorized
within
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy. 
When
market
quotations
or
official
closing
prices
are
not
readily
available,
or
are
determined
not
to
reflect
fair
value
accurately,
they are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
based
on
procedures
approved
by
the
Board.
Fair
value
of
investments
may
be
determined
by
valuation
designee
using
such
information
as
it
deems
appropriate
under
the
circumstances.
Certain
factors
may
be
considered
when
fair
valuing
investments
such
as:
fundamental
analytical
data,
the
nature
and
duration
of
restrictions
on
disposition,
an
evaluation
of
the
forces
that
influence
the
market
in
which
the
securities
are
purchased
and
sold,
and
public
trading
in
similar
securities
of
the
issuer
or
comparable
issuers.
These
securities
are
either
categorized
within
Level
2
or
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
depending
on
the
relevant
inputs
used.
For
securities
where
observable
inputs
are
limited,
assumptions
about
market
activity
and
risk
are
used
and
are
generally
categorized
within
Level
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
The
table
below
summarizes
the
inputs
used
as
of April
30,
2025
in
valuing
the
fund’s
investments:
Fair
Value
Measurements
(b)
Foreign
currency
transactions:
The
fund
does
not
isolate
that
portion
of
the
results
of
operations
resulting
from
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
on
investments
from
the
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
the
market
prices
of
securities
held.
Such
fluctuations
are
included
with
the
net
realized
and
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
investments.
Net
realized
foreign
exchange
gains
or
losses
arise
from
sales
of
foreign
currencies,
currency
gains
or
losses
realized
on
securities
transactions
between
trade
and
settlement
date,
and
the
difference
between
the
amounts
of
dividends,
interest
and
foreign
withholding
taxes
recorded
on
the
fund’s
books
and
the
U.S.
dollar
equivalent
of
the
amounts
actually
received
or
paid.
Net
unrealized
foreign
exchange
gains
and
losses
arise
from
changes
in
the
value
of
assets
and
liabilities
other
than
investments
resulting
from
changes
in
exchange
rates.
Foreign
currency
gains
and
losses
on
foreign
currency
transactions
are
also
included
with
net
realized
and
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
investments.
Foreign
Taxes:
The
fund
may
be
subject
to
foreign
taxes
(a
portion
of
which
may
be
reclaimable)
on
income,
stock
dividends,
realized
and
unrealized
capital
gains
on
investments
or
certain
foreign
currency
transactions.
Foreign
taxes
are
recorded
in
accordance
with
the
applicable
foreign
tax
regulations
and
rates
that
exist
in
the
foreign
jurisdictions
in
which
the
fund
invests.
These
foreign
taxes,
if
any,
are
paid
by
the
fund
and
are
reflected
in
the
Statement
of
Operations,
if
applicable.
Foreign
taxes
payable
or
deferred
or
those
subject
to
reclaims as
of 
April
30,
2025
,
if
any,
are

(c)
Securities
transactions
and
investment
income:
Securities
transactions
are
recorded
on
a
trade
date
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
from
securities
transactions
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Dividend
income
is
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
interest
income,
including,
where
applicable,
accretion
of
discount
and
amortization
of
premium
on
investments,
is
recognized
on
the
accrual
basis.
Pursuant
to
a
securities
lending
agreement
with
BNY,
the
fund
may
lend
securities
to
qualified
institutions.
It
is
the
fund’s
policy
that,
at
origination,
all
loans
are
secured
by
collateral
of
at
least
102%
of
the
value
of
U.S.
securities
loaned
and
105%
of
the
value
of
foreign
securities
loaned.
Collateral
equivalent
to
at
least
100%
of
the
market
value
of
securities
on
loan
is
maintained
at
all
times.
Collateral
is
either
in
the
form
of
cash,
which
can
be
invested
in
certain
money
market
mutual
funds
managed
by
the
Adviser,
or
U.S.
Government
and
Agency
securities.
Any
non-cash
collateral
received
cannot
be
sold
or
re-pledged
by
the
fund,
except
in
the
event
of
borrower
default.
The
securities
on
loan,
if
any,
are
also
disclosed
in
the
fund’s
Statement
of
Investments.
The
fund is
entitled
to
receive
all
dividends,
interest
and
distributions
on
securities
loaned,
in
addition
to
income
earned
as
a
result
of
the
lending
transaction.
Should
a
borrower
fail
to
return
the
securities
in
a
timely
manner,
BNY
is
required
to
replace
the
securities
for
the
benefit
of
the
fund
or
credit
the
fund
with
the
market
value
of
the
unreturned
securities
and
is
subrogated
to
the
fund’s
rights
against
the
borrower
and
the
collateral.
Additionally,
the
contractual
maturity
of
security
lending
transactions
are
on
an
overnight
and
continuous
basis.
During
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025,
BNY
earned
$154 from
the
lending
of
the
fund’s portfolio
securities,
pursuant
to
the
securities
lending
agreement.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
the
fund
elects
not
to
offset
assets
and
liabilities
subject
to
a
securities
lending
agreement,
if
any,
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Therefore,
all
qualifying
transactions
are
presented
on
a
gross
basis
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
As
of
April
30,
2025,
the
fund
had no securities on loan.
(d)
Affiliated
issuers:
Investments
in
other
investment
companies
advised
by
the
Adviser
or
its
affiliates are
defined
as
“affiliated”
under
the
Act. 
(e)
Market
Risk:
 The
value
of
the
securities
in
which
the
fund
invests
may
be
affected
by
political,
regulatory,
economic
and
social
developments,
and
developments
that
impact
specific
economic
sectors,
industries
or
segments
of
the
market.
In
addition,
turbulence
in
financial
markets
and
reduced
liquidity
in
equity,
credit
and/or
fixed
income
markets
may
negatively
affect
many
issuers,
which
could
adversely
affect
the
fund.
Global
economies
and
financial
markets
are
becoming
increasingly
interconnected,
and
conditions
and
events
in
one
country,
region
or
financial
market
may
adversely
impact
issuers
in
a
different
country,
region
or
financial
market.
These
risks
may
be
magnified
if
certain
events
or
developments
adversely
interrupt
the
global
supply
chain;
in
these
and
other
circumstances,
such
risks
might
affect
companies
world-wide.
Growth
Stock
Risk:
The
fund
invests
in
stocks
of
companies
the
sub-adviser
believes
are
growth
companies
(growth
stocks).
The
prices
of
growth
stocks
may
be
based
largely
on
expectations
of
future
earnings,
and
their
prices
can
decline
rapidly
and
significantly
in
reaction
to
negative
news.
Growth
stocks
may
underperform
value
stocks
and
stocks
in
other
broad
style
categories
(and
the
stock
market
as
a
whole)
over
any
period
of
time
and
may
shift
in
and
out
of
favor
with
investors
generally,
sometimes
rapidly,
depending
on
changes
in
market,
economic,
and
other
factors.
Foreign
Investment
Risk:
To
the
extent
the
fund
invests
in
foreign
securities,
the
fund’s
performance
will
be
influenced
by
political,
social
and
economic
factors
affecting
investments
in
foreign
issuers.
Special
risks
associated
with
investments
in
foreign
issuers
include
exposure
to
currency
fluctuations,
less
liquidity,
less
developed
or
less
efficient
trading
markets,
lack
of
comprehensive
company
information,
political
and
economic
instability
and
differing
auditing
and
legal
standards.
The
imposition
of
sanctions,
confiscations,
trade
restrictions
(including
tariffs)
and
other
government
restrictions
by
the
United
States
and
other
governments,
or
problems
in
share
registration,
settlement
or
custody,
may
result
in
losses
for
the
fund.
Investments
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
are
subject
to
the
risk
that
such
currencies
will
decline
in
value
relative
to
the
U.S.
dollar
and
affect
the
value
of
these
investments
held
by
the
fund.
To
the
extent
securities
held
by
the
fund
trade
in
a
market
that
is
closed
when
the
exchange
on
which
the
fund’s
shares
trade
is
open,
there
may
be
deviations
between
the
current
price
of
a
security
and
the
last
quoted
price
for
the
security
in
the
closed
foreign
market.
These
deviations
could
result
in
the
fund
experiencing
premiums
or
discounts
greater
than
those
of
ETFs
that
invest
in
domestic
securities.
To
the
extent
the
fund’s
investments
are
focused
in
a
limited
number
of
foreign
countries,
the
fund’s
performance
could
be
more
volatile
than
that
of
more
geographically
diversified
funds.
Authorized
Participants,
Market
Makers
and
Liquidity
Providers
Risk:
The
fund
has
a
limited
number
of
financial
institutions
that
may
act
as
Authorized
Participants,
which
are
responsible
for
the
creation
and
redemption
activity
for
the
fund.
In
addition,
there
may
be
a
limited
number
of
market
makers
and/or
liquidity
providers
in
the
marketplace.
To
the
extent
either
of
the
following
events
occur,
fund
shares
may
trade
at
a
material
discount
to
net
asset
value
and
possibly
face
delisting:
(
i
)
Authorized
Participants
exit
the
business
or
otherwise
become
unable
to
process
creation
and/or
redemption
orders
and
no
other
Authorized
Participants
step
forward
to
perform
these
services,
or
(ii)
market
makers
and/or
liquidity
providers
exit
the
business
or
significantly
reduce
their
business
activities
and
no
other
entities
step
forward
to
perform
their
functions.

NOTES
TO
FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(continued)
Non-Diversification
Risk:
The
fund
is
non-diversified,
which
means
that
the
fund
may
invest
a
relatively
high
percentage
of
its
assets
in
a
limited
number
of
issuers.
Therefore,
the
fund’s
performance
may
be
more
vulnerable
to
changes
in
the
market
value
of
a
single
issuer
or
group
of
issuers
and
more
susceptible
to
risks
associated
with
a
single
economic,
political
or
regulatory
occurrence
than
a
diversified
fund.
(f)
Dividends
and
distributions
to
shareholders:
Dividends
and
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Dividends
from
net
investment
income
and
dividends
from
net
realized
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
normally
declared
and
paid
annually,
but
the
fund
may
make
distributions
on
a
more
frequent
basis
to
comply
with
the
distribution
requirements
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986,
as
amended
(the
“Code”).
To
the
extent
that
net
realized
capital
gains
can
be
offset
by
capital
loss
carryovers
of
a
fund,
it
is
the
policy
of
the
fund
not
to
distribute
such
gains.
Income
and
capital
gain
distributions
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
(g)
Federal
income
taxes:
It
is
the
policy
of
the
fund
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company,
if
such
qualification
is
in
the
best
interests
of
its
shareholders,
by
complying
with
the
applicable
provisions
of
the
Code,
and
to
make
distributions
of
taxable
income
and
net
realized
capital
gain
sufficient
to
relieve
it
from
substantially
all
federal
income
and
excise
taxes.
As
of
and
during
the period
ended April
30,
2025,
the
fund
did
not
have
any
liabilities
for
any
uncertain
tax
positions.
The
fund
recognizes
interest
and
penalties,
if
any,
related
to
uncertain
tax
positions
as
income
tax
expense
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
During
the period
ended April
30,
2025,
the
fund
did
not
incur
any
interest
or
penalties.
Each
tax
year
in
the
three-year
period
ended October
31,
2024
remains
subject
to
examination
by
the
Internal
Revenue
Service
and
state
taxing
authorities. 
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
to
shareholders
during
the
fiscal
year
ended
October
31,
2024
were
as
follows:
ordinary
income
$435,166
and
long-term
capital
gains
$8,596,513.
The
tax
character
of
current
year
distributions
will
be
determined
at
the
end
of
the
current
fiscal
year. 
(h)
Operating
Segment
Reporting:
In
this
reporting
period,
the

-
Improvements
to
Reportable
Segment
Disclosures
(“ASU
2023-07”).
Adoption
of
the
new
standard
impacted
financial
statement
disclosures
only
and
did
not
affect
the
fund’s
financial
position
or
the
results
of
its
operations.
The
ASU
2023-07
is
effective
for
public
entities
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023,
and
requires
retrospective
application
for
all
prior
periods
presented
within
the
financial
statements.
Since
its
commencement,
the
fund
operates
and
is
managed
as
a
single
reportable
segment
deriving
returns
in
the
form
of
dividends,
interest
and/or
gains
from
the
investments
made
in
pursuit
of
its
single
stated
investment
objective
as
outlined
in
the
fund’s
prospectus.
The
accounting
policies
of
the
fund
are
consistent
with
those
described
in
these
Notes
to
the
Financial
Statements.
The
chief

(“CODM”)
is
represented
by
BNY

the
management
of
the
fund’s
adviser,
comprising
of
Senior

The
CODM
considers
net
increase
in
net
assets
resulting
from
operations
in
deciding
whether
to
purchase
additional
investments
or
to
make
distributions
to
its
shareholders.

NOTE
3—Bank
Lines
of
Credit:
Prior
to
March
28,
2025,
the
Predecessor
Fund
had
participated
with
other
long-term
open-end
funds
managed
by
BNY
Mellon
Investment
Adviser,
Inc.
(the
“Predecessor
Fund
Adviser”)
in
a
$738
million
unsecured
credit
facility
led
by
Citibank,
N.A.
(the
“Citibank
Credit
Facility”)
and
a
$300
million
unsecured
credit
facility
provided
by
BNY
(the
“BNY
Credit
Facility”),
each
to
be
utilized
primarily
for
temporary
or
emergency
purposes,
including
the
financing
of
redemptions
(each,
a
“Facility”).
The
Citibank
Credit
Facility
is
available
in
two
tranches:
(i)
Tranche
A
is
in
an
amount
equal
to
$618
million
and
is
available
to
all
long-term
open-ended
funds,
including
the
fund,
and
(ii)
Tranche
B
is
an
amount
equal
to
$120
million
and
is
available
only
to
BNY
Mellon
Floating
Rate
Income
Fund,
a
series
of
BNY
Mellon
Investment
Funds
IV,
Inc.
In
connection
therewith,
the
Predecessor
Fund
has
agreed
to
pay
its
pro
rata
portion
of
commitment
fees
for
Tranche
A
of
the
Citibank
Credit
Facility
and
the
BNY
Credit
Facility.
Interest
is
charged
to
the
fund
based
on
rates
determined
pursuant
to
the
terms
of
the
respective
Facility
at
the
time
of
borrowing.
During
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025,
the
fund
did
not
borrow
under
either
Facility.

NOTE
4—Management
Fee,
Sub-Advisory
Fee
and
Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates:
(a)
Pursuant
to
a
management
agreement
with
the
Adviser,
the
management
fee
is computed
at
an
annual
rate of
0.50%
of
the
value
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets
and
is
payable
monthly.
Prior
to
March
28,
2025,
the
Predecessor
Fund
Adviser
fee
was
computed
at
an
annual
rate
of
0.95%
of
the
Predecessor
Fund’s
average
daily
net
assets,
and
was
payable
monthly.
The
fund’s
management
agreement
provides
that
the
Adviser
pays
substantially
all
expenses
of
the
fund,
except
for
the
management
fees,
payments
under
the
fund’s
12b-1

program,
and
litigation
and
potential
litigation
and
other
extraordinary
expenses
not
incurred
in
the
ordinary
course
of
the
fund’s
business.
The
Adviser
may
from
time
to
time
voluntarily
waive
and/or
reimburse
fees
or
expenses
in
order
to
limit
total
annual
fund
operating
expenses.
Any
such
voluntary
waiver
or
reimbursement
may
be
eliminated
by
the
Adviser
at
any
time.
During
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025
,
there
was
no
reduction
in
expenses
pursuant
to
the
undertaking.
The Predecessor
Fund
Adviser had
agreed
in
its
investment
management
agreement
with
the
fund
to:
(1)
pay
all
of
the
fund’s
direct
expenses,
except
management
fees,
Rule

Plan
fees
and
certain
other
expenses,
including
the
fees
and
expenses
of
the
independent
board
members
and
independent
counsel
to
the
fund
and
to
the
independent
board
members,
and
(2)
reduce
its
fees
pursuant
to
the
management
agreement
in
an
amount
equal
to
the
fund’s
allocable
portion
of
the
fees
and
expenses
of
the
independent
board
members
and
independent
counsel
to
the
fund
and
to
the
independent
board
members. During
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025,
fees
reimbursed
by
the
Adviser
amounted
to
$7,055.
The
Predecessor
Fund
Adviser
had
agreed
to
waive
receipt
of
the
fund’s
12b-1
Distribution
fee
of
the
value
of
the
fund's
average
daily
net
assets.
The
reduction
in
expenses,
pursuant
to
the
undertaking,
amounted
to
$105,637
during
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025.
The
Predecessor
Fund
Adviser
had
contractually
agreed,
from
November
1,
2024
through
March
28,
2025,
to
waive
receipt
of
a
portion
of
the
fund's
management
fee,
in
the
amount
of
.10%
of
the
value
of
the
funds
average
daily
net
assets.
On
March
28,
2025,
the
Predecessor
Fund
Adviser
had
terminate
this
waiver
agreement.
The
reduction
in
expenses,
pursuant
to
the
undertaking,
amounted
to $55,093
during
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025.
Pursuant
to
a
sub-investment
advisory
agreement
between
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser
serves
as
the
fund’s
sub-
adviser
responsible
for
the
day-to-day
management
of
the
fund’s
portfolio.
The
Adviser
pays
the
Sub-Adviser
a
monthly
fee
at
an
annual
percentage
of
the
value
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets.
The
Adviser
has
obtained
an
exemptive
order
from
the
SEC
(the
“Order”),
upon
which
the
fund
may
rely,
to
use
a
manager
of
managers
approach
that
permits
the
Adviser,
subject
to
certain
conditions
and
approval
by
the
Board,
to
enter
into
and
materially
amend
sub-investment
advisory
agreements
with
one
or
more
sub-advisers
who
are
either
unaffiliated
or
affiliated
with
the
Adviser
without
obtaining
shareholder
approval.
The
Order
also
relieves
the
fund
from
disclosing
the
sub-advisory
fee
paid
by
the
Adviser
to
a
Sub-Adviser
in
documents
filed
with
the
SEC
and
provided
to
shareholders.
In
addition,
pursuant
to
the
Order,
it
is
not
necessary
to
disclose
the
sub-advisory
fee
payable
by
the
Adviser
separately
to
a
Sub-Adviser
that
is
a
wholly-owned
subsidiary
(as
defined
in
the
1940
Act)
of
BNY
in
documents
filed
with
the
SEC
and
provided
to
shareholders;
such
fees
are
to
be
aggregated
with
fees
payable
to
the
Adviser.
The
Adviser
has
ultimate
responsibility
(subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board)
to
supervise
any
Sub-Adviser
and
recommend
the
hiring,
termination,
and
replacement
of
any
Sub-Adviser
to
the
Board.
Pursuant
to
a
sub-investment
advisory
agreement
between
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Adviser
pays
the
Sub-Adviser
a
monthly
fee
at
an
annual
rate
of
0.2175%
of
the
value
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets.
The
Adviser,
and
not
the
fund,
pays
the
Sub-Adviser
fee
rate.
Prior
to
March
28,
2025,
pursuant
to
a
sub-investment
advisory
agreement
between
the
Predecessor
Fund
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Predecessor
Fund
Adviser
paid
the
Sub-Adviser
a
monthly
fee
at
an
annual
rate
of
.2175%
of
the
value
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets.
(b)

Rule
12b-1
(the

to
the
fund
and/or

to
the
Service

shares.
Class

shares
pay
the

of
their

a
fee
at
an
annual

of
.25%
of
the

of
Class
C
shares.

(the
“Custodian”),
a

of
the
Adviser, whereby
the
fund
will
receive
interest
income
or
be
charged
overdraft
fees
when
cash
balances
are
maintained.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
the
fund
includes
this
interest
income
and
overdraft
fees,
if

in
the

serves
as
a
Board
member
of
each
fund
within
the
Trust.
The
Board
members
are
not
compensated
directly
by

members
are
paid

NOTE
5—Securities
Transactions:
The
aggregate
amount
of
purchases
and
sales
of
investment
securities,
excluding
short-term
securities
and
in-kind
transactions,
if
any,
during
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025, amounted
to $11,219,885
and
$39,720,966,
respectively.
At April
30,
2025,
accumulated
net
unrealized
appreciation on
investments
was
$43,767,246,
consisting
of
gross
appreciation
of
$44,410,113
and
gross
depreciation
of
$642,867.
At
April
30,
2025,
the
cost
of
investments
for
federal
income
tax
purposes
was
substantially
the
same
as
the
cost
for
financial
reporting
purposes
(see
the
Statement
of
Investments).
NOTE
6—Shareholder
Transactions:
The
fund
issues
and
redeems
its
shares
on
a
continuous
basis,
at
NAV,
to
certain
institutional
investors
known
as
“Authorized
Participants”
(typically
market
makers
or
other
broker-dealers)
only
in
a
large
specified
number
of
shares
called
a
Creation
Unit.
Except
when
aggregated
in
Creation
Units,
shares
of
the
fund
are
not
redeemable.
The
value
of
the
fund
is
determined
once
each
business
day.
The
Creation
Unit
size
for the
fund
may
change.
Authorized
Participants
will
be
notified
of
such
change.
Creation
Unit
transactions
may
be
made
in-kind,
for
cash,
or
for
a
combination
of
securities
and
cash.
The
principal
consideration
for
creations
and
redemptions
for
the
fund
is
in-kind,
although
this
may
be
revised
at
any
time
without
notice.
The
Trust
issues
and
sells
shares
of
the
fund
only:
in
Creation
Units
on
a
continuous
basis
through
the
Distributor,
without
a
sales
load,
at
their
NAV
per
share
determined
after
receipt
of
an
order,
on
any
Business
Day,
in
proper
form
pursuant
to
the
terms
of
the
Authorized
Participant
Agreement.
Transactions
in
capital
shares
for
the
fund
are
disclosed
in
detail
in
the
Statement
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.
The
consideration
for
the
purchase
of
Creation
Units
of the
fund
may
consist
of
the
in-kind
deposit
of
a
designated
portfolio
of
securities
and
a
specified
amount
of
cash.
Investors
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
the
Trust
and/or
custodian
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
The
Adviser
or
its
affiliates
(the
“Selling
Shareholder”)
may
purchase
Creation
Units
through
a
broker-dealer
to
“seed”
(in
whole
or
in
part)
funds
as
they
are
launched
or
may
purchase shares
from
broker-dealers
or
other
investors
that
have
previously
provided
“seed”
for
funds
when
they
were
launched
or
otherwise
in
secondary
market
transactions.
Because
the
Selling
Shareholder
may
be
deemed
an
affiliate
of
such
funds,
the
fund shares
are
being
registered
to
permit
the
resale
of
these
shares
from
time
to
time
after
purchase.
The
fund
will
not
receive
any
of
the
proceeds
from
resale
by
the
Selling
Shareholders
of
these
fund
shares. An
additional
variable
fee
may
be
charged
for
certain
transactions.
Such
variable
charges,
if
any,
are
included
in
“Transaction
fees”
on
the
Statement
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.
In-kind
Redemptions:
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
in-kind
redemptions
are
treated
as
sales
of
securities
resulting
in
realized
capital
gains
or
losses
to
the
fund.
Because
such
gains
or
losses
are
not
taxable
to
the
fund
and
are
not
distributed
to
existing
fund
shareholders,
the
gains
or
losses
are
reclassified
from
accumulated
net
realized
gain
(loss)
to
paid-in
capital
at
the
end
of
the
fund’s
tax
year.
These
reclassifications
have
no
effect
on
net
assets
or
net
asset
value
per
share.
During
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025
,
the
fund
had
in-kind
transactions
associated
with
creations
of
$32,705,662
and
redemptions
of
$34,066,470
.

was
the
independent

for
the
Predecessor

financial
statement
disclosure,
or
auditing
scope

The

(Unaudited)
At
a
meeting
held
on
September

2024
(the
“Meeting”),
the
Board
of
Trustees
of
the
Trust
(the

all
the
members
of
which
are
not
“interested
persons”
of
the
Trust
as
defined
in
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended,
evaluated
proposals
to
approve:
(i)
the
management
agreement
(the
“Management
Agreement”)
between
the
Trust
and
BNY
Mellon
ETF
Investment
Adviser,
LLC
(the
“Adviser”),
pursuant
to
which
the
Adviser
will
provide
the
BNY
Mellon
Concentrated
Growth
ETF
(the

which
commenced
operations
during
the
semi-annual
period
ended
April

with
investment
advisory

(the

pursuant
to
which
the
Sub-Adviser
will
provide
day-to-day

The
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreement
are
each
referred
to
herein
as
an
“Agreement”
and
collectively,
as
the
“Agreements”.
The
Trustees
met
separately
to
consider
the

and
were
advised
by
legal

throughout
the

To
evaluate
the

the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
provided,
such

as
the
Board,
with
the
advice
of

deemed
reasonably
necessary.
In
deciding
whether
to
approve
the
Agreements,
the
Board
considered
various
factors,
including
the
(i)
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
expected
to
be
provided
by
the
Adviser
and
the

under
each

charged
to
comparable
funds,
(iv)
other
benefits
to
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser,
and/or
their
affiliates,
and
(v)
the
extent
to
which
economies
of
scale
would
be
shared
as
the
fund
grows.
The
Board
considered
each
of
the
Agreements
and
the
engagement
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
separately.
Nature,
Extent
and
Quality
of
Services
The
Board
considered
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
expected
to
be
provided
by
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser.
The
Board
reviewed
the
Agreements
and
the
Adviser’s
anticipated
responsibilities
of
investment
advisory
and
administrative
services
for
the
fund,
including
oversight
of
day-to-day
fund
operations,
fund
accounting,
administration,
and
assistance
in
meeting
legal
and
regulatory
requirements,
as
well
as
the
Adviser’s
and
the
Sub-Adviser’s
anticipated
responsibilities
for
managing
investment
operations
of
the
fund
in
accordance
with
the
fund’s
investment
objective
and
policies,
and
applicable
legal
and
regulatory
requirements.
The
Board
considered
the
background
and
experience
of
the
Adviser’s
and
the
Sub-Adviser’s
senior
management,
including
those
individuals
expected
to
be
responsible
for
portfolio
management
and
regulatory
compliance
of
the
fund,
as
well
as
the
Adviser’s
supervisory
activities
over
the
Sub-Adviser.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
extensive
administrative,
accounting,
and
compliance
infrastructures.
With
respect
to
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
favorable
assessment
of
the
nature
and
quality
of
the
services
expected
to
be
provided
by
the
Sub-Adviser.
The
Board
appreciated
the
nature
of
the
fund
as
an
exchange-traded
fund
(“ETF”)
and
considered
the
portfolio
management
resources,
structures
and
practices
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser,
including
those
associated
with
monitoring
and
securing
the
fund’s
compliance
with
its
investment
objective
and
policies
and
with
applicable
laws
and
regulations.
The
Board
also
considered
information
about
the
Sub-
Adviser’s
best
execution
procedures
and
overall
investment
management
business.
The
Board
looked
at
the
Adviser’s
general
knowledge
of
the
investment
management
business
and
that
of
its
affiliates.
Investment
Performance
As
the
fund
had
not
yet
commenced
operations,
it
did
not
have
its
own
performance
record
for
the
Board
to
review.
However,
it
was
proposed
at
the
Meeting
that
the
BNY
Mellon
Tax
Managed
Growth
Fund
(the
“Predecessor
Fund”),
a
separate
series
of
BNY
Mellon
Investment
Funds
IV,
Inc.,
be
reorganized
with
and
into
the
fund
pursuant
to
an
agreement
and
plan
of
reorganization
and
subject
to
approval
by
the
Predecessor
Fund’s
shareholders
(the
“Reorganization”).
Upon
completion
of
the
Reorganization,
which
subsequently
occurred
on
March
28,
2025,
the
fund
commenced
investment
operations
and
assumed
the
historical
performance
record
of
the
Predecessor
Fund.
In
light
of
the
proposed
Reorganization,
the
Board
reviewed
the
Predecessor
Fund’s
performance
as
compared
to
a
broad-based
index
and
a
peer
group
of
large
cap
core
funds
(“Peer
Group”).
In
considering
the
Predecessor
Fund’s
performance,
the
Board
noted
that
the
fund
would
have
a
similar
investment
objective,
similar
investment
strategies,
and
the
same
Sub-Adviser
and
portfolio
managers
as
the
Predecessor
Fund.
The
Board
reviewed
the
results
of
the
Predecessor
Fund’s
performance
comparisons
and
considered
that
the
fund’s
total
return
performance
was
above
the
Peer
Group
median
and
the
index
for
the
five-year
period
and
below
the
Peer
Group
median
and
the
index
for
the
one-
and
ten-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2023.
Representatives
of
the
Adviser
indicated
that
the
usefulness
of
performance
comparisons
may
be
affected
by
a
number
of
factors,
including
different
investment
limitations
and
policies
that
may
be
applicable
to
the
Predecessor
Fund
and
comparison
funds
and
the
end
date
selected.
The
Board
discussed
with
representatives
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
the
proposed
portfolio
management
team
and
the
investment
strategy
to
be
employed
in
the
management
of
the
fund’s
assets.
The
Board
also
considered
the
reputation
and
experience
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser.
19
Fees
Charged
to
Comparable
Funds
The
Board
evaluated
the
fund’s
proposed
unitary
fee
through
a
review
of
a
report
prepared
by
Broadridge
Financial
Solutions,
Inc.
(“Broadridge”),
an
independent
provider
of
investment
company
data,
which
included
information
comparing
the
fund’s
proposed
contractual
management
fee
and
anticipated
total
expenses
with
a
group
of
actively-managed
large
growth
ETFs
and,
with
respect
to
anticipated
total
expenses,
with
a
broader
group
of
actively-managed
large
growth
ETFs,
the
information
for
which
was
derived
in
part
from
fund
financial
statements
available
to
Broadridge
as
of
the
date
of
its
analysis.
Representatives
of
the
Adviser
also
discussed
the
Adviser’s
pricing
strategy
for
the
fund.
The
Board
considered
the
fee
to
be
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
in
relation
to
the
fee
to
be
paid
to
the
Adviser
by
the
fund
and
the
respective
services
to
be
provided
by
the
Sub-Adviser
and
the
Adviser.
The
Board
also
took
into
consideration
that
the
Sub-Adviser’s
fee
will
be
paid
by
the
Adviser
and
not
the
fund.
Other
Benefits
The
Board
also
considered
whether
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser
or
their
affiliates
were
expected
to
benefit
in
other
ways
from
their
relationship
with
the
fund,
including
any
soft
dollar
arrangements
maintained
with
respect
to
the
fund’s
brokerage
transactions.
The
Board
noted
The
Bank
of
New
York
Mellon
Corporation
may
derive
certain
benefits
from
an
incremental
growth
in
its
businesses
that
may
possibly
result
from
the
availability
of
the
fund
to
clients.
Profitability
and
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
reviewed
information
regarding
economies
of
scale
or
other
efficiencies
that
may
result
as
the
fund’s
assets
grow
in
size.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Management
Agreement
did
not
provide
for
breakpoints
in
the
fund’s
advisory
fee
rate
as
assets
of
the
fund
increase.
The
Board
noted
that,
because
the
fund
is
new,
there
are
no
economies
of
scale
to
share,
but
it
intends
to
continue
to
monitor
fees
as
the
fund
grows
in
size
and
to
the
extent
in
the
future
it
were
determined
that
material
economies
of
scale
had
not
been
shared
with
the
fund,
the
Board
would
seek
to
have
those
economies
of
scale
shared
with
the
fund
in
connection
with
future
renewals.
As
the
fund
had
not
yet
commenced
operations,
the
Board
was
not
able
to
review
the
dollar
amount
of
expenses
allocated
and
profit
received
by
the
Adviser
or
Sub-Adviser.
Conclusion
After
weighing
the
foregoing
factors,
none
of
which
was
dispositive
in
itself
and
may
have
been
weighed
differently
by
each
Trustee,
the
Board
approved
the
Agreements
for
the
fund.

Trust
II (the
“Trust”),
which is
registered as
a
Massachusetts
business
trust
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“Act”),
as
an
open-ended
management
investment
company.
The
Trust
operates
as
a
series
company
currently
consisting
of
two
series,
including
the
fund.
The
fund
had
no
operations
until
November
4,
2024
(commencement
of
operations),
other
than
matters
relating
to
its
organization
and
registration
under
the
Act.
The
investment
objective
of
the
fund
is
to
seek
capital
appreciation.
BNY

ETF
Investment
Adviser,
LLC
(the
“Adviser”),
a
wholly-owned
subsidiary
of
The
Bank
of
New
York
Mellon
Corporation
(“BNY”),
serves
as
the
fund’s
investment
adviser. Newton
Investment
Management
North
America,
LLC (the
“Sub-Adviser”
or
“NIMNA”),
an
indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary
of
BNY
and
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
serves
as
the
fund’s
sub-adviser.
NIMNA
has
entered
into
a
sub-sub-investment
advisory
agreement
with
its
affiliate,
Newton
Investment
Management
Limited
(“NIM”),
which
enables
NIM
to
provide
certain
advisory
services
to
the
Sub-Adviser
for
the
benefit
of
the
fund,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
portfolio
management
services.
NIM
is
subject
to
the
supervision
of
NIMNA
and
the
Adviser.
NIM
is
also
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser.
NIM,
located
at
160
Queen
Victoria
Street,
London,
EC4V,
4LA,
England,
was
formed
in
1978.
NIM
is
an
indirect
subsidiary
of
BNY.
The
Bank
of
New
York
Mellon,
a
subsidiary
of
BNY
and
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
serves
as
administrator,
custodian
and
transfer
agent
with
the
Trust.
BNY
Mellon
Securities
Corporation
(the
“Distributor”),
a wholly-owned
subsidiary
of
the
Adviser,
is
the
distributor
of
the
fund’s
shares.
The
shares
of
the
fund
are
referred
to
herein
as
“Shares”
or
“Fund
Shares.”
Fund
Shares
are
listed
and
traded
on
NYSE
Arca,
Inc.
The
market
price
of
each
Share
may
differ
to
some
degree
from
the
fund’s
net
asset
value
(“NAV”).
Unlike
conventional
mutual
funds,
the
fund
issues
and
redeems
Shares
on
a
continuous
basis,
at
NAV,
only
in
a
large
specified
number
of
Shares,
each
called
a
“Creation
Unit”.
Creation
Units
are
issued
and
redeemed
principally
in
exchange
for
the
deposit
or
delivery
of
a
basket
of
securities.
Except
when
aggregated
in
Creation
Units
by
Authorized
Participants,
the
Shares
are
not
individually
redeemable
securities
of
the
fund.
Individual
Fund
Shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
the
NYSE
Arca,
Inc.,
other
national
securities
exchanges,
electronic
crossing
networks
and
other
alternative
trading
systems
through
your
broker-dealer
at
market
prices.
Because
Fund
Shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
at
NAV,
Fund
Shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(discount).
When
buying
or
selling
Shares
in
the
secondary
market,
you
may
incur
costs
attributable
to
the
difference
between
the
highest
price
a
buyer
is
willing
to
pay
to
purchase
Shares
of
the
fund
(bid)
and
the
lowest
price
a
seller
is
willing
to
accept
for
Shares
of
the
fund
(ask). 
NOTE
2—Significant
Accounting
Policies: 
The
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
(“ASC”)
is
the
exclusive
reference
of
authoritative
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles
(“GAAP”)
recognized
by
the
FASB
to
be
applied
by
nongovernmental
entities.
Rules
and
interpretive
releases
of
the
SEC
under
authority
of
federal
laws
are
also
sources
of
authoritative
GAAP
for
SEC
registrants. The
fund
is an
investment
company
and
applies
the
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
of
the
FASB
ASC
Topic
946
Financial
Services-Investment
Companies. The
fund’s
financial
statements
are
prepared
in
accordance
with
GAAP,
which
may
require
the
use
of
management
estimates
and
assumptions.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.  
The
Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
indemnifications.
The
fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown.
The
fund
does
not
anticipate
recognizing
any
loss
related
to
these
arrangements. 
(a)
Portfolio
valuation:
The
fair
value
of
a
financial
instrument
is
the
amount
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date
(i.e.,
the
exit
price).
GAAP
establishes
a
fair
value
hierarchy
that
prioritizes
the
inputs
of
valuation
techniques
used
to
measure
fair
value.
This
hierarchy
gives
the
highest
priority
to
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
or
liabilities
(Level
1
measurements)
and
the
lowest
priority
to
unobservable
inputs
(Level
3
measurements).
Additionally,
GAAP
provides
guidance
on
determining
whether
the
volume
and
activity
in
a
market
has
decreased
significantly
and
whether
such
a
decrease
in
activity
results
in
transactions
that
are
not
orderly.
GAAP
requires
enhanced
disclosures
around
valuation
inputs
and
techniques
used
during
annual
and
interim
periods.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
fund’s
investments
relating
to
fair
value
measurements.
These
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
investments.
Level
2
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar investments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.).
Level
3
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments).
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities.
11
Changes
in
valuation
techniques
may
result
in
transfers
in
or
out
of
an
assigned
level
within
the
disclosure
hierarchy.
Valuation
techniques
used
to
value
the
fund’s
investments
are
as
follows:
The
Trust’s Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”)
has
designated
the
Adviser
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
to
make
all
fair
value
determinations
with
respect
to
the
fund’s
portfolio
of
investments,
subject
to
the
Board’s
oversight
and
pursuant
to
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Act.
Investments
in
equity
securities,
including
ETFs
(but
not
including
investments
in
other
open-end
registered
investment
companies),
generally
are
valued
at
the
last
sales
price
on
the
day
of
valuation
on
the
securities
exchange
or
national
securities
market
on
which
such
securities
primarily
are
traded.
Securities
listed
on
the
National
Association
of
Securities
Dealers
Automated
Quotation
System
(“NASDAQ”)
for
which
market
quotations
are
available
will
be
valued
at
the
official
closing
price.
If
there
are
no
transactions
in
a
security,
or
no
official
closing
prices
for
a
NASDAQ
market-listed
security
on
that
day,
the
security
will
be
valued
at
the
average
of
the
most
recent
bid
and
asked
prices.
Bid
price
is
used
when
no
asked
price
is
available.
Open
short
positions
for
which
there
is
no
sale
price
on
a
given
day
are
valued
at
the
lowest
asked
price.
Registered
investment
companies
that
are
not
traded
on
an
exchange
are
valued
at
their
net
asset
value.
All
of
the
preceding
securities
are
generally
categorized
within
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy. 
When
market
quotations
or
official
closing
prices
are
not
readily
available,
or
are
determined
not
to
reflect
fair
value
accurately,
they are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
based
on
procedures
approved
by
the
Board.
Fair
value
of
investments
may
be
determined
by
valuation
designee
using
such
information
as
it
deems
appropriate
under
the
circumstances.
Certain
factors
may
be
considered
when
fair
valuing
investments
such
as:
fundamental
analytical
data,
the
nature
and
duration
of
restrictions
on
disposition,
an
evaluation
of
the
forces
that
influence
the
market
in
which
the
securities
are
purchased
and
sold,
and
public
trading
in
similar
securities
of
the
issuer
or
comparable
issuers.
These
securities
are
either
categorized
within
Level
2
or
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
depending
on
the
relevant
inputs
used.
For
securities
where
observable
inputs
are
limited,
assumptions
about
market
activity
and
risk
are
used
and
are
generally
categorized
within
Level
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
The
table
below
summarizes
the
inputs
used
as
of April
30,
2025
in
valuing
the
fund’s
investments:
Fair
Value
Measurements
(b) Securities
transactions
and
investment
income:
Securities
transactions
are
recorded
on
a
trade
date
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
from
securities
transactions
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Dividend
income
is
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
interest
income,
including,
where
applicable,
accretion
of
discount
and
amortization
of
premium
on
investments,
is
recognized
on
the
accrual
basis.
(c)
Affiliated
issuers:
Investments
in
other
investment
companies
advised
by
the
Adviser
or
its
affiliates are
defined
as
“affiliated”
under
the
Act. 
(d)
Market
Risk:
 The
value
of
the
securities
in
which
the
fund
invests
may
be
affected
by
political,
regulatory,
economic
and
social
developments,
and
developments
that
impact
specific
economic
sectors,
industries
or
segments
of
the
market.
In
addition,
turbulence
in
financial
markets
and
reduced
liquidity
in
equity,
credit
and/or
fixed
income
markets
may
negatively
affect
many
issuers,
which
could
adversely
affect
the
fund.
Global
economies
and
financial
markets
are
becoming
increasingly
interconnected,
and
conditions
and
events
in
one
country,
region
or
financial
market
may
adversely
impact
issuers
in
a
different
country,
region
or
financial
market.
These
risks
may
be
magnified
if
certain
events
or
developments
adversely
interrupt
the
global
supply
chain;
in
these
and
other
circumstances,
such
risks
might
affect
companies
world-wide.
Fluctuation
of
net
asset
value,
share
premiums
and
discounts
risk:
As
with
all
exchange-traded
funds,
fund
shares
may
be
bought
and
sold
in
the
secondary
market
at
market
prices.
The
trading
prices
of
fund
shares
in
the
secondary
market
may
differ
from
the
fund's
daily
net
asset
value
per
share
and
there may
be
times
when
the
market
price
of
the
shares
is
more
than
the
net
asset
value
per
share
(premium)
of
less
than
the
net
asset
value
per
shares
(discount).
This
risk
is
heightened
in
times
of
market
volatility
or
periods
of
steep
market
declines.

(e)
Dividends
and
distributions
to
shareholders:
Dividends
and
distributions are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Dividends
from
net
investment
income
and
dividends
from net
realized
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
normally
declared
and
paid
annually,
but
the
fund
may
make
distributions
on
a
more
frequent
basis
to
comply
with
the
distribution
requirements
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986,
as
amended
(the
“Code”).
To
the
extent
that
net
realized
capital
gains
can
be
offset
by
capital
loss
carryovers
of
a
fund,
it
is
the
policy
of
the
fund
not
to
distribute
such
gains.
Income
and
capital
gain
distributions
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
(f)
Federal
income
taxes:
It
is
the
policy
of
the
fund
to qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company,
if
such
qualification
is
in
the
best
interests
of
its
shareholders,
by
complying
with
the
applicable
provisions
of
the
Code,
and
to
make
distributions
of
taxable
income
and
net
realized
capital
gain sufficient
to
relieve
it
from
substantially
all
federal
income
and
excise
taxes.
As
of
and
during
the period
ended April
30,
2025,
the
fund
did
not
have
any
liabilities
for
any
uncertain
tax
positions.
The
fund
recognizes
interest
and
penalties,
if
any,
related
to
uncertain
tax
positions
as
income
tax
expense
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
During
the period
ended April
30,
2025,
the
fund
did
not
incur
any
interest
or
penalties.
The
tax
character
of
current
year
distributions
will
be
determined
at
the
end
of
the
current
fiscal
year.
(g)
Operating
Segment
Reporting:
In
this
reporting
period,
the
fund
adopted
FASB
Accounting
Standards
Update
2023-07,
Segment
Reporting
(Topic
280)
-
Improvements
to
Reportable
Segment
Disclosures
(“ASU
2023-07”).
Adoption
of
the
new
standard
impacted
financial
statement
disclosures
only
and
did
not
affect
the
fund’s
financial
position
or
the
results
of
its
operations.
The
ASU
2023-07
is
effective
for
public
entities
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023,
and
requires
retrospective
application
for
all
prior
periods
presented
within
the
financial
statements.
Since
its
commencement,
the
fund
operates
and
is
managed
as
a
single
reportable
segment
deriving
returns
in
the
form
of
dividends,
interest
and/or
gains
from
the
investments
made
in
pursuit
of
its
single
stated
investment
objective
as
outlined
in
the
fund’s
prospectus.
The
accounting
policies
of
the
fund
are
consistent
with
those
described
in
these
Notes
to
the
Financial
Statements.
The
chief
operating
decision
maker
(“CODM”)
is
represented
by
BNY
Investments,
the
management
of
the
fund’s
adviser,
comprising
of
Senior
management
and
Directors.
The
CODM
considers
net
increase
in
net
assets
resulting
from
operations
in
deciding
whether
to
purchase
additional
investments
or
to
make
distributions
to
its
shareholders.
Detailed
financial
information
for
the
fund
is
disclosed
within
these
financial

NOTE
3—Management
Fee,
Sub-Advisory
Fee
and
Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates:
(a)
Pursuant
to
a
management
agreement
with
the
Adviser,
the
management
fee
is computed
at
an
annual
rate of
0.60%
of
the
value
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets
and
is
payable
monthly.
The
fund’s
management
agreement
provides
that
the
Adviser
pays
substantially
all
expenses
of
the
fund,
except
for
the
management
fees,
payments
under
the
fund’s
12b-1
plan
(if
any),
interest
expenses,
taxes,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
brokerage
commissions,
costs
of
holding
shareholder
meetings,
fees
and
expenses
associated
with
the
fund’s
securities
lending
program,
and
litigation
and
potential
litigation
and
other
extraordinary
expenses
not
incurred
in
the
ordinary
course
of
the
fund’s
business.
The
Adviser
may
from
time
to
time
voluntarily
waive
and/or
reimburse
fees
or
expenses
in
order
to
limit
total
annual
fund
operating
expenses.
Any
such
voluntary
waiver
or
reimbursement
may
be
eliminated
by
the
Adviser
at
any
time.
During
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025,
there
was
no
reduction
in
expenses
pursuant
to
the
undertaking.
Pursuant
to
a
sub-investment
advisory
agreement
between
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser
serves
as
the
fund’s
sub-
adviser
responsible
for
the
day-to-day
management
of
the
fund’s
portfolio.
The
Adviser
pays
the
Sub-Adviser
a
monthly
fee
at
an
annual
percentage
of
the
value
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets.
The
Adviser
has
obtained
an
exemptive
order
from
the
SEC
(the
“Order”),
upon
which
the
fund
may
rely,
to
use
a
manager
of
managers
approach
that
permits
the
Adviser,
subject
to
certain
conditions
and
approval
by
the
Board,
to
enter
into
and
materially
amend
sub-investment
advisory
agreements
with
one
or
more
sub-advisers
who
are
either
unaffiliated
or
affiliated
with
the
Adviser
without
obtaining
shareholder
approval.
The
Order
also
relieves
the
fund
from
disclosing
13
the
sub-advisory
fee
paid
by
the
Adviser
to
a
Sub-Adviser
in
documents
filed
with
the
SEC
and
provided
to
shareholders.
In
addition,
pursuant
to
the
Order,
it
is
not
necessary
to
disclose
the
sub-advisory
fee
payable
by
the
Adviser
separately
to
a
Sub-Adviser
that
is
a
wholly-owned
subsidiary
(as
defined
in
the
1940
Act)
of
BNY
in
documents
filed
with
the
SEC
and
provided
to
shareholders;
such
fees
are
to
be
aggregated
with
fees
payable
to
the
Adviser.
The
Adviser
has
ultimate
responsibility
(subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board)
to
supervise
any
Sub-Adviser
and
recommend
the
hiring,
termination,
and
replacement
of
any
Sub-Adviser
to
the
Board.
Pursuant
to
a
sub-investment
advisory
agreement
between
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Adviser
pays
the
Sub-Adviser
a
monthly
fee
at
an
annual
rate
of
0.30%
of
the
value
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets.
The
Adviser,
and
not
the
fund,
pays
the
Sub-Adviser
fee
rate.
(b)
The
fund
has
an
arrangement
with
The
Bank
of
New
York
Mellon
(the
“Custodian”),
a
subsidiary
of
BNY
and
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser, whereby
the
fund
will
receive
interest
income
or
be
charged
overdraft
fees
when
cash
balances
are
maintained.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
the
fund
includes
this
interest
income
and
overdraft
fees,
if
any,
as
interest
income
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
components
of
“Due
to
BNY
Mellon
ETF Investment
Adviser,
LLC”
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
consist
of:
Management
fee
of $123,042.
(c)
Each
Board
member
serves
as
a
Board
member
of
each
fund
within
the
Trust.
The
Board
members
are
not
compensated
directly
by
the
fund.
The
Board
members
are
paid
by
the
Adviser
from
the
unitary
management
fees
paid
to
the
Adviser
by
the
funds
within
the
Trust,
including
the
fund.
NOTE
4—Securities
Transactions:
The
aggregate
amount
of
purchases
and
sales
of
investment
securities,
excluding
short-term
securities
and
in-kind
transactions,
if
any,
during
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025, amounted
to $38,564,847
and
$37,948,258,
respectively.
At April
30,
2025,
accumulated
net
unrealized
depreciation on
investments
was
$2,976,815,
consisting
of
gross
appreciation
of
$6,335,577
and
gross
depreciation
of
$9,312,392.
At
April
30,
2025,
the
cost
of
investments
for
federal
income
tax
purposes
was
substantially
the
same
as
the
cost
for
financial
reporting
purposes
(see
the
Statement
of
Investments).
NOTE
5—Shareholder
Transactions:
The
fund
issues
and
redeems
its
shares
on
a
continuous
basis,
at
NAV,
to
certain
institutional
investors
known
as
“Authorized
Participants”
(typically
market
makers
or
other
broker-dealers)
only
in
a
large
specified
number
of
shares
called
a
Creation
Unit.
Except
when
aggregated
in
Creation
Units,
shares
of
the
fund
are
not
redeemable.
The
value
of
the
fund
is
determined
once
each
business
day.
The
Creation
Unit
size
for the
fund
may
change.
Authorized
Participants
will
be
notified
of
such
change.
Creation
Unit
transactions
may
be
made
in-kind,
for
cash,
or
for
a
combination
of
securities
and
cash.
The
principal
consideration
for
creations
and
redemptions
for
the
fund
is
in-kind,
although
this
may
be
revised
at
any
time
without
notice.
The
Trust
issues
and
sells
shares
of
the
fund
only:
in
Creation
Units
on
a
continuous
basis
through
the
Distributor,
without
a
sales
load,
at
their
NAV
per
share
determined
after
receipt
of
an
order,
on
any
Business
Day,
in
proper
form
pursuant
to
the
terms
of
the
Authorized
Participant
Agreement.
Transactions
in
capital
shares
for
the
fund
are
disclosed
in
detail
in
the
Statement
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.
The
consideration
for
the
purchase
of
Creation
Units
of the
fund
may
consist
of
the
in-kind
deposit
of
a
designated
portfolio
of
securities
and
a
specified
amount
of
cash.
Investors
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
the
Trust
and/or
custodian
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
The
Adviser
or
its
affiliates
(the
“Selling
Shareholder”)
may
purchase
Creation
Units
through
a
broker-dealer
to
“seed”
(in
whole
or
in
part)
funds
as
they
are
launched
or
may
purchase shares
from
broker-dealers
or
other
investors
that
have
previously
provided
“seed”
for
funds
when
they
were
launched
or
otherwise
in
secondary
market
transactions.
Because
the
Selling
Shareholder
may
be
deemed
an
affiliate
of
such
funds,
the
fund shares
are
being
registered
to
permit
the
resale
of
these
shares
from
time
to
time
after
purchase.
The
fund
will
not
receive
any
of
the
proceeds
from
resale
by
the
Selling
Shareholders
of
these
fund
shares. An
additional
variable
fee
may
be
charged
for
certain
transactions.
Such
variable
charges,
if
any,
are
included
in
“Transaction
fees”
on
the
Statement
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.
Seed
Capital:
As
of
April
30,
2025,
MBC
Investments
Corporation,
a
wholly-owned
subsidiary
of
BNY,
held
394,000
shares
of
the
fund.
In-kind
Redemptions:
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
in-kind
redemptions
are
treated
as
sales
of
securities
resulting
in
realized
capital
gains
or
losses
to
the
fund.
Because
such
gains
or
losses
are
not
taxable
to
the
fund
and
are
not
distributed
to
existing
fund
shareholders,
the
gains
or
losses
are
reclassified
from
accumulated
net
realized
gain
(loss)
to
paid-in
capital
at
the
end
of
the
fund’s
tax
year.
These
reclassifications
have
no
effect
on
net
assets
or
net
asset
value
per
share.
During
the
period
ended
April
30,
2025
,
the
fund
had
no
in-kind
transactions
.

Statement
Regarding
Basis
for
Approval
of
Investment
Advisory
Contracts
(Unaudited)
At
a
meeting
held
on
September
12,
2024
(the
“Meeting”),
the
Board
of
Trustees
of
the
Trust
(the
“Board”),
all
the
members
of
which
are
not
“interested
persons”
of
the
Trust
as
defined
in
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended,
evaluated
proposals
to
approve:
(i)
the
management
agreement
(the
“Management
Agreement”)
between
the
Trust
and
BNY
Mellon
ETF
Investment
Adviser,
LLC
(the
“Adviser”),
pursuant
to
which
the
Adviser
will
provide
the
BNY
Mellon
Dynamic
Value
ETF
(the
“fund”),
which
commenced
operations
during
the
semi-annual
period
ended
April
30,
2025,
with
investment
advisory
and
administrative
services;
(ii)
the
sub-investment
advisory
agreement
(the
“Sub-Advisory
Agreement”)
between
the
Adviser
and
Newton
Investment
Management
North
America,
LLC
(the
“Sub-
Adviser”),
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
pursuant
to
which
the
Sub-Adviser
will
provide
day-to-day
management
of
the
fund’s
investments;
and
(iii)
the
sub-sub-investment
advisory
agreement
(the
“SSIA
Agreement”)
between
the
Sub-Adviser
and
Newton
Investment
Management
Limited
(“NIM”),
also
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
which
permits
the
Sub-Adviser
to
use
the
investment
advisory
personnel,
resources
and
capabilities
(“Investment
Advisory
Services”)
available
at
its
sister
company,
NIM,
in
providing
the
day-to-day
management
of
the
fund’s
investments.
The
Management
Agreement,
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreement
and
the
SSIA
Agreement
are
each
referred
to
herein
as
an
“Agreement”
and
collectively,
as
the
“Agreements”.
The
Trustees
met
separately
to
consider
the
Agreements
and
were
advised
by
legal
counsel
throughout
the
process.
To
evaluate
the
Agreements,
the
Board
requested,
and
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser
and
NIM
provided,
such
materials
as
the
Board,
with
the
advice
of
counsel,
deemed
reasonably
necessary.
In
deciding
whether
to
approve
the
Agreements,
the
Board
considered
various
factors,
including
the
(i)
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
expected
to
be
provided
by
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser
and
NIM
under
each
respective
Agreement,
(ii)
fees
charged
to
comparable
funds,
(iii)
other
benefits
to
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser,
NIM
and/or
their
affiliates,
and
(iv)
the
extent
to
which
economies
of
scale
would
be
shared
as
the
fund
grows.
The
Board
considered
each
of
the
Agreements
for
the
fund
and
the
engagement
of
the
Adviser,
Sub-Adviser
and
NIM
separately.
Nature,
Extent
and
Quality
of
Services
The
Board
considered
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
expected
to
be
provided
by
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser
and
NIM.
The
Board
reviewed
the
Agreements
and
the
Adviser’s
anticipated
responsibilities
of
investment
advisory
and
administrative
services
for
the
fund,
including
oversight
of
day-to-day
fund
operations,
fund
accounting,
administration,
and
assistance
in
meeting
legal
and
regulatory
requirements,
as
well
as
the
Adviser’s
and
the
Sub-Adviser’s
anticipated
responsibilities
for
managing
investment
operations
of
the
fund
in
accordance
with
the
fund’s
investment
objective
and
policies,
and
applicable
legal
and
regulatory
requirements.
The
Board
considered
the
background
and
experience
of
the
Adviser’s,
the
Sub-Adviser’s
and
NIM’s
senior
management,
including
those
individuals
expected
to
be
responsible
for
portfolio
management
and
regulatory
compliance
of
the
fund,
as
well
as
the
Adviser’s
supervisory
activities
over
the
Sub-Adviser.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
extensive
administrative,
accounting,
and
compliance
infrastructures.
With
respect
to
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
favorable
assessment
of
the
nature
and
quality
of
the
services
expected
to
be
provided
by
the
Sub-Adviser.
With
respect
to
NIM,
the
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
favorable
assessment
of
the
nature
and
quality
of
services
that
may
be
provided
by
NIM.
The
Board
appreciated
the
nature
of
the
fund
as
an
exchange-traded
fund
(“ETF”)
and
considered
the
portfolio
management
resources,
structures
and
practices
of
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser
and
NIM,
including
those
associated
with
monitoring
and
securing
the
fund’s
compliance
with
its
investment
objective
and
policies
and
with
applicable
laws
and
regulations.
The
Board
also
considered
information
about
the
Sub-Adviser’s
best
execution
procedures
and
overall
investment
management
business.
The
Board
looked
at
the
Adviser’s
general
knowledge
of
the
investment
management
business
and
that
of
its
affiliates,
including
the
Sub-Adviser
and
NIM.
As
the
fund
had
not
yet
commenced
operations,
the
Board
was
not
able
to
review
the
fund’s
performance.
The
Board
discussed
with
representatives
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
the
proposed
portfolio
management
team
and
the
investment
strategy
to
be
employed
in
the
management
of
the
fund’s
assets.
The
Board
considered
the
reputation
and
experience
of
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Sub-Adviser
and
NIM.
Fees
Charged
to
Comparable
Funds
The
Board
evaluated
the
fund’s
proposed
unitary
fee
through
a
review
of
a
report
prepared
by
Broadridge
Financial
Solutions,
Inc.
(“Broadridge”),
an
independent
provider
of
investment
company
data,
which
included
information
comparing
the
fund’s
proposed
contractual
management
fee
and
anticipated
total
expenses
with
a
group
of
actively-managed
large
value
ETFs
and,
with
respect
to
anticipated
total
expenses,
with
a
broader
group
of
actively-managed
large
value
ETFs,
the
information
for
which
was
derived
in
part
from
fund
financial
statements
available
to
Broadridge
as
of
the
date
of
its
analysis.
Representatives
of
the
Adviser
also
discussed
the
Adviser’s
pricing
strategy
for
the
fund.
The
Board
considered
the
fee
to
be
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
in
relation
to
the
fee
to
be
paid
to
the
Adviser
by
the
fund
and
the
respective
services
to
be
provided
by
the
Sub-Adviser
and
the
Adviser.
The
Board
also
took
into
consideration
that
the
Sub-Adviser’s
fee
will
be
paid
by
the
Adviser
and
not
the
fund.
Furthermore,
the
Board
noted
NIM
would
not
receive
a
fee
in
connection
with
providing
the
Investment
Advisory
Services.

(Unaudited)
(continued)
Other
Benefits
The
Board
also
considered
whether
the
Adviser,
the
Sub-Adviser,
NIM
or
their
affiliates
were
expected
to
benefit
in
other
ways
from
their
relationship
with
the
fund,
including
any
soft
dollar
arrangements
maintained
with
respect
to
the
fund’s
brokerage
transactions.
The
Board
noted
The
Bank
of
New
York
Mellon
Corporation
may
derive
certain
benefits
from
an
incremental
growth
in
its
businesses
that
may
possibly
result
from
the
availability
of
the
fund
to
clients.
Profitability
and
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
reviewed
information
regarding
economies
of
scale
or
other
efficiencies
that
may
result
as
the
fund’s
assets
grow
in
size.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Management
Agreement
did
not
provide
for
breakpoints
in
the
fund’s
advisory
fee
rate
as
assets
of
the
fund
increase.
The
Board
noted
that,
because
the
fund
is
new,
there
are
no
economies
of
scale
to
share,
but
it
intends
to
continue
to
monitor
fees
as
the
fund
grows
in
size
and
to
the
extent
in
the
future
it
were
determined
that
material
economies
of
scale
had
not
been
shared
with
the
fund,
the
Board
would
seek
to
have
those
economies
of
scale
shared
with
the
fund
in
connection
with
future
renewals.
As
the
fund
had
not
yet
commenced
operations,
the
Board
was
not
able
to
review
the
dollar
amount
of
expenses
allocated
and
profit
received
by
the
Adviser
or
Sub-Adviser.
Conclusion
After
weighing
the
foregoing
factors,
none
of
which
was
dispositive
in
itself
and
may
have
been
weighed
differently
by
each
Trustee,
the
Board
approved
the
Agreements
for
the
fund.
