Objective. The Battleshares TSLA vs F ETF (the Fund) seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Strategy. The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Funds investment strategy is designed to capitalize on the competitive dynamics within the automobiles industry by taking targeted positions in two specific companies, one which the Adviser views as a new leader in this industry: Tesla, Inc., (TSLA) and one which the Adviser views as a legacy leader in this industry: Ford Motor Company (F or Ford). The Fund establishes long exposure to TSLA and short exposure to F. That is, the Fund is designed to benefit if TSLAs share price outperforms Fs share price after considering the effects of leverage (e.g., the potential magnified gains or losses arising from the Funds use of derivatives … The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Funds investment strategy is designed to capitalize on the competitive dynamics within the automobiles industry by taking targeted positions in two specific companies, one which the Adviser views as a new leader in this industry: Tesla, Inc., (TSLA) and one which the Adviser views as a legacy leader in this industry: Ford Motor Company (F or Ford). The Fund establishes long exposure to TSLA and short exposure to F. That is, the Fund is designed to benefit if TSLAs share price outperforms Fs share price after considering the effects of leverage (e.g., the potential magnified gains or losses arising from the Funds use of derivatives to increase exposure). In this context, outperforms means the Funds leveraged long position in TSLA, combined with its short position in F, results in net positive performance for the Fund, factoring in the effects of leverage. The Funds strategy involves a leveraged long position in TSLA, generally targeting +180% to +220% of the Funds net assets, and a leveraged short position in F, generally targeting -80% to -120% of the Funds net assets. To be long means to have exposure to an asset with the expectation that its value will increase over time. Conversely, to be short means to have exposure to an asset with the expectation that it will fall in value. The pairing reflects the view that TSLA, with its focus on electric automobiles as well as energy generation and storage, may prove better positioned to benefit from current industry trends than F, which maintains its market leadership in traditional automobiles that run on fossil fuels. Because the Fund uses leverage, an investment in the Fund will typically increase or decrease in value to a greater degree than it would without the use of leverage. In this long/short structure, the long and short positions may partially offset each other, resulting in a more balanced net exposure to market movements. This may occur because general market driven gains in one position (long TSLA) may be partially offset by losses in the other (short F), or vice versa. Under normal circumstances, the Fund generally targets a net long exposure between 100% and 120% of its net assets, which represents the difference between the total long and short positions. This structure may allow the Fund to benefit in various market environments, including those where both TSLA and F are rising. The Funds leveraged structure seeks to magnify the returns of its long and short positions, which also increases the potential for higher risk and volatility. If the share price of F (held short by the Fund) increases while the share price of TSLA (held long by the Fund) decreases, the Fund will incur losses on both positions simultaneously. Such a scenario can result in significant overall Fund losses due to the compounding impact of adverse price movements in both the long and short positions, magnified by the Funds leveraged exposure. To implement the Funds strategy, the Adviser will utilize a mix of direct equity investments, short sales of securities, swaps, and listed options, which will be used to obtain both long and short exposure, as applicable, to the underlying securities. The Adviser selects these financial instruments based on considerations such as financing costs and liquidity. The Funds use of derivatives (swaps and listed options), is designed to enable it to achieve its objective of capital appreciation by providing flexible and efficient methods to gain both long and short exposure to the underlying securities. Swaps are derivative contracts where two parties agree to exchange cash flows or returns on different assets. These contracts enable the Fund to establish long or short exposure to the underlying securities efficiently. Long positions in swaps generally benefit from increases in the securitys price but incur losses when prices decline, while short positions generally benefit from price decreases but experience losses when prices rise. Options provide the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an asset at a specified price before a certain date. Call options allow the Fund to seek gains from upward price movements, while exposing it to potential losses if prices decline. Conversely, put options enable the Fund to benefit from downward price movements, while incurring losses if prices rise. By incorporating options, the Fund can create synthetic exposure to the underlying securities. The Fund will hold short-term U.S. Treasury securities as collateral in connection with the Funds derivatives transactions. The Advisers active management approach involves frequent rebalancing to adjust within the anticipated exposure ranges, considering factors such as market volatility, company-specific announcements, price momentum, and other relevant indicators. As a result, the Fund is expected to have a high annual portfolio turnover rate. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in a combination of direct equity securities, swaps, and options that provide financial exposure to TSLA and/or F. Portfolio Attributes The Fund is classified as non-diversified under the 1940 Act. Due to the Funds investment strategy, the Funds investment exposure is concentrated in (or substantially exposed to) the same industry as that assigned to TSLA and F. As of the date of the Prospectus, each of TSLA and F is assigned to the automobiles industry. Tesla, Inc.
