Strategy. The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks (i) to generate cash distributions based on a targeted annual cash distribution level of 25% (the Annual 25% Target), and (ii) capital appreciation. The Funds strategy combines (1) synthetic long exposure to the common stock of TSLA (the Underlying Security), and (2) the use of options strategies designed to generate premiums. The Fund will also maintain an allocation to cash, money market funds, or U.S. Treasuries (generally 50% to 100% of assets) to provide liquidity, serve as margin, and collateralize its derivative positions.

The Funds strategy combines (1) synthetic long exposure to the common stock of TSLA (the Underlying Security), and (2) the use of options strategies designed to generate premiums. The Fund will also maintain an allocation to cash, money market funds, or U.S. Treasuries (generally 50% to 100% of assets) to provide liquidity, serve as margin, and collateralize its derivative positions. Synthetic Exposure to the Underlying Security Rather than purchasing shares of the Underlying Security directly, the Fund creates synthetic exposure by combining long call options with short put options on the Underlying Security. Together, these positions are designed to replicate the price movements of the Underlying Security, subject to limits on potential gains created by the sale (writing) of options (see section below titled Options Strategies Seeking Premiums). Alternatively, the Fund may also purchase deep in the money call options on the underlying security which provides similar exposure to the Fund. This synthetic exposure generally provides the Fund with investment exposure equal to approximately 100% of the Underlying Security over the term of the contracts. Options Strategies Seeking Premiums Separately, the Fund employs various options strategies focused on generating premiums. Generally speaking, the Fund sells (writes) options on the Underlying Security, receiving premiums from counterparties that pay for the right to buy or sell at a set price. These premiums are an important driver of the Funds distributions. On a weekly basis, the Adviser uses one or more options strategies to seek to generate net premiums (i.e., option premiums received, less option premiums paid) with a target of approximately 2.2% per month. Actual results may vary and are not guaranteed. Receipt of an option premium does not always represent income; depending on the outcome of the overall options transaction. Premium levels are influenced by market conditions, particularly volatility, and the Adviser may adjust the Funds options strategies depending on the outlook for the Underlying Security. While option selling may provide premium opportunities, it may also limit upside gains or increase downside risk. The options strategy most frequently utilized by the Fund is called a covered call spread, which is a type of selling credit spread. The Fund uses covered call spreads to earn premium by selling a call option while buying another at a higher strike, with both profit and loss capped. See the prospectus section titled Additional Information About the Funds for a list of the options strategies that the Fund may utilize, together with a description of each options strategy. Annual 25% Target Distribution As discussed above, the Funds options strategies are designed to seek net premiums of approximately 2.2% per month. The Fund has also established a target annual cash distribution level of approximately 25% of its net asset value (the Annual 25% Target). This target reflects the Advisers expectations based on the premiums the Fund seeks to generate and the annualized effect of those premiums. In practice, the Funds options strategies are designed to seek monthly distribution levels of roughly 2.2%, which, when annualized, correspond to the Annual 25% Target. The Annual 25% Target is not a guarantee, nor does it represent a 25% yield or a 25% total return . Actual distributions may be higher or lower depending on market conditions and the Funds results. To the extent the Funds returns fall short of the Annual 25% Target, distributions will reduce the Funds net asset value(NAV). Although stated as an annual target, distributions are paid more frequently, and any amount the Fund pays in excess of its earnings will reduce NAV. If the Funds NAV declines over time, the dollar amount of future distributions will also decrease. Distributions may include a significant portion classified as return of capital (ROC). ROC generally represents a return of a shareholders invested capital rather than traditional income such as dividends or interest. See the prospectus section titled Additional Information About the Funds for more information about option premiums and ROC. The Fund seeks to pay distributions on a weekly basis, but there is no assurance the Fund will achieve the Annual 25% Target in any year. Treasuries In addition, the Fund will hold cash or short-term U.S. Treasury securities. These securities serve a dual purpose: providing collateral for the Options Strategies and contributing to the Funds income generation. Additional Fund Attributes The Fund is classified as non-diversified under the 1940 Act. The Funds investment strategy is expected to result in high portfolio turnover on an annual basis. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of the value of its assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in options contracts that provide exposure to the Underlying Security. There is no guarantee that the Funds investment strategy will be properly implemented, and an investor may lose some or all of its investment. Tesla Inc.
