Strategy. The Fund is an actively-managed exchange-traded fund (?ETF?) advised by Advent Capital Management, LLC (the ?Adviser?) that seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in convertible securities issued by U.S.-domiciled companies and in USD denominated convertible securities issued by foreign-domiciled companies that are traded on U.S. exchanges (the ?80% Policy?).

For purposes of the 80% Policy, the Fund considers the following security types to be convertible securities: convertible bonds, mandatory convertible bonds, convertible preferred stocks, and synthetic convertibles. Convertible preferred stocks are share issuances of a company that rank above that of common stock, below that of most debt issuances, and provide the option to convert into common stock at predetermined times. A synthetic convertible is a convertible security with an underlying issuer that is not and does not own the conversion equity. A synthetic convertible instrument is designed to simulate the economic characteristics of a convertible security through the combined features of a debt instrument and a security providing an option on an equity security. The Fund may establish a synthetic convertible instrument by combining a fixed-income security (which may be either convertible or non-convertible) with the right to acquire an equity security. The fixed-income and equity option components may have different issuers, and either component may change at any time. Synthetic convertible bonds are created by third parties which typically are investment banks and brokerage firms. The Fund may invest in synthetic convertible bonds already established by such third parties which are trading in the marketplace. The Fund will primarily invest in convertible securities which, at the time of purchase, are trading at no more than 20% above their straight bond value, with the goal of investing in securities with greater upside potential than downside risk, as determined by the Adviser. The Adviser uses its bottom-up company-specific research philosophy to identify undervalued convertible securities, and considers various factors, including its evaluation of the macroeconomic and sector outlook, interest rate changes, credit risks, and stable to improving issuer fundamentals. The Fund seeks to exploit the inherent advantages of convertible securities by identifying companies that, in the Adviser?s view, have temporarily fallen out of market favor but have long corporate histories and a stable to improving credit profile. The Fund?s investments are unconstrained with respect to particular markets, sectors and industries, and the Fund may from time to time have sizable allocations to particular markets, sectors, and/or industries. The Fund may invest in debt securities with a broad range of maturities, with fixed or variable principal payments, and investment grade, non-investment grade and non-rated securities. The Fund may invest in securities of any credit quality. The Fund may invest globally (including in emerging markets) and there are no geographic limits on the Fund?s holdings. The Adviser considers a country to be an emerging market country if the country is represented in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index or another widely recognized emerging markets index. As of October 31, 2025, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index consisted of the following 24 emerging markets countries: Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, Egypt, Greece, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Korea, Kuwait, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates. Emerging markets are often characterized by low to middle income but with rapid economic growth, as well as financial liberalization and institutional development. The Fund may invest in equity securities to the extent they are acquired via the conversion or exchange with the issuer of a convertible security held by the Fund. Equity securities must be sold by the Fund within 60 days of their settlement. The Fund may invest in fixed income securities that are not investment grade but are rated as low as Ca2 by Moody?s, CC by S&P (or their equivalents), or in the case of unrated securities CC as determined in the sole judgement of the Adviser. The Fund expects to be an active and frequent trader of its portfolio securities which may result in increased transaction costs, including brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs, which could reduce the Fund?s return. The Fund may also seek to increase its income by lending portfolio securities. The Fund has elected to be and intends to qualify each year for treatment as a regulated investment company (?RIC?) under Subchapter M of Subtitle A, Chapter 1, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the ?Code?). The Fund may sell an investment or reduce its position if: ? The investment subsequently fails to meet the investment criteria; ? Revised economic forecasts, sector outlook, or interest rate outlook requires a repositioning of the portfolio; ? Changing credit profile and/or conditions result in an unacceptable risk condition; ? A more attractive investment is found; or ? The Adviser believes that the investment has reached its appreciation potential. Show less
