Objective. The Defiance Leveraged Long + Income PLTR ETF (the Fund) seeks long-term capital appreciation,

Strategy. The Fund is an actively-managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks to achieve its investment objective through a combination of a Leveraged Strategy and an Income Generation Strategy. The Leveraged Strategy aims to amplify returns by employing derivatives to achieve exposure to the share price of the common stock of Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR or the Underlying Security) at daily levels ranging from 150% to 200% of the Funds net assets. The Income Generation Strategy complements the Leveraged Strategy by utilizing credit call spreads to seek to generate premium income and manage risk associated with the Funds leveraged exposure. While these strategies are designed to enhance potential returns and mitigate certain risks, the Income Generation Strategy may limit the upside performance … The Fund is an actively-managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks to achieve its investment objective through a combination of a Leveraged Strategy and an Income Generation Strategy. The Leveraged Strategy aims to amplify returns by employing derivatives to achieve exposure to the share price of the common stock of Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR or the Underlying Security) at daily levels ranging from 150% to 200% of the Funds net assets. The Income Generation Strategy complements the Leveraged Strategy by utilizing credit call spreads to seek to generate premium income and manage risk associated with the Funds leveraged exposure. While these strategies are designed to enhance potential returns and mitigate certain risks, the Income Generation Strategy may limit the upside performance of the Leveraged Strategy on the portion of exposure covered by the credit call spreads. ? Leveraged Strategy: The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by entering into derivatives transactions (i.e., swap agreements and options contracts) to gain long exposure to the Underlying Security. The Fund uses leverage to seek to provide daily returns of approximately 150% to 200% of the performance of the Underlying Security, before fees and expenses. Although the Funds leverage will vary, its base, daily target leverage level will be approximately 200%. The Funds investment adviser will determine the Funds actual leverage level based on market conditions and other factors described below. For example, if volatility in the Underlying Security increases significantly, the Fund may adjust its leverage level to seek to manage risk. Leverage adjustments may also be influenced by operational considerations, such as the availability and cost of derivatives, regulatory constraints, or the overall liquidity of the Underlying Security and associated derivatives markets. The Funds dynamic approach to leverage allows it to remain responsive to market conditions while striving to achieve its stated investment objective. If the Fund encounters limitations in implementing its strategies, whether due to market conditions, derivative availability, counterparty issues, or other factors, the Fund may not achieve daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to 150% to 200% the performance of the Underlying Security, and may return substantially less during such periods. During such periods, the Funds actual leverage levels may differ substantially from its intended leverage target range, both intraday and at the close of trading, potentially resulting in significantly lower returns. The Fund employs leverage to enhance the total return of its long exposure to the Underlying Security. Under normal market conditions, the Funds daily exposure to the Underlying Security is expected to range from approximately 150% to 200% of the Funds net assets. This means that for each dollar invested in the Fund, the investors exposure to the performance of the Underlying Security will be equivalent to approximately one and a half to two dollars, magnifying the potential gains or losses associated with fluctuations in the price of the Underlying Security. The term exposure refers to the extent to which the Funds performance is influenced by changes in the Underlying Securitys value. As a result of the Funds leveraged strategy, an investment in the Fund is effectively amplified, allowing investors to potentially benefit from (or incur losses related to) the price movements of the Underlying Security. This approach seeks to provide enhanced returns, though it also carries commensurate risks, including the possibility of amplified losses. The Fund may utilize swap agreements (bilateral contracts in which the Fund agrees to exchange cash flows or returns with a counterparty based on the performance of the Underlying Security over a specified period) and/or listed options contracts (standardized financial derivatives that give the Fund the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell the Underlying Security at a predetermined price within a specified timeframe) to achieve leveraged exposure. Swap agreements may be entered into with financial institutions for periods ranging from one day to over a year. These agreements involve exchanging the return (or rate-of-return differentials) on the Underlying Securitys share price. The return to be exchanged is calculated with respect to a notional amount (the face value of the instrument), such as the return on or change in value of a specific dollar amount representing the Underlying Security. The swap agreements the Fund may utilize will typically reset on a monthly basis or upon the occurrence of mutually agreed-upon conditions, such as when receivable or payable amounts reach predetermined thresholds relative to the principal. These resets effectively lock in the accumulated performance of the swap agreement up to that point. The Fund may also employ listed options, such as short-dated (a month or less) in-the-money call options (options with strike prices below the current market price of the underlying security, offering immediate intrinsic value), to achieve or supplement its leveraged exposure. These options allow the Fund to dynamically adjust its leverage strategy based on market conditions, liquidity constraints, or pricing considerations for swaps. The ability to incorporate options provides additional flexibility in pursuing the Funds investment objective, enhancing the Funds capacity to respond to various market dynamics. At the end of each trading day, the Funds swaps and options are marked to market (valued based on current market prices), and the Funds investment adviser rebalances the portfolio to maintain leveraged exposure of approximately 150% to 200% of the Underlying Securitys share price. This rebalancing ensures alignment with the Funds investment objective. The performance of the Fund over periods exceeding a single day is influenced by several factors, including: a) the volatility of the Underlying Security; b) the Underlying Securitys overall performance; c) the duration of the investment period; d) financing rates associated with leveraged exposure; and e) other Fund expenses. ? Income Generation Strategy: The Fund will write (sell) credit call spreads (described below) to generate premium income and manage risk associated with its leveraged exposure to the Underlying Securitys share price. A credit call spread involves selling a call option while simultaneously buying a call option with a higher strike price, both with the same expiration date. By writing credit call spreads, the Fund can potentially offset losses incurred from its short call positions if the Underlying Securitys share price rises above the upper strike price. The Funds credit call spreads are generally implemented on approximately 100% of the Funds net notional exposure to the Underlying Security. For instance, if the Fund employs leverage of 200%, half of the Funds effective exposure to the Underlying Security will be offset by the call spread, limiting upside participation for that portion of the exposure. While the strategy reduces the potential for gains from leveraged increases in the Underlying Securitys price, it generates premium income and mitigates risk through predefined limits on losses. Portfolio Attributes The Fund will seek to provide at least weekly income distributions in the form of cash. The Fund will hold assets to serve as collateral for the Funds derivatives investments. For those collateral holdings, the Fund may invest in (1) U.S. Government securities, such as bills, notes and bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury; (2) money market funds; (3) short term bond ETFs; and/or (4) corporate debt securities, such as commercial paper and other short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by businesses that are rated investment grade or of comparable quality. The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in financial instruments that provide financial exposure to the Underlying Security. For purposes of compliance with this 80% policy, derivatives will be valued at notional value. The Fund is expected to have a high annual portfolio turnover rate. The Fund is classified as non-diversified under the 1940 Act. There is no guarantee that the Funds investment strategy will be properly implemented, and an investor may lose some or all of its investment. Palantir Technologies Inc.
