The Fund seeks investment results that replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the performance of the NYSE^® Equal Sector Weight Index (ticker symbol NYXLEW) (the "Underlying Index").

FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE FUND

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell shares of the Fund ("Shares"). You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Management Fees	0.37%
Other Expenses	0.00%
Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses	0.08%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.45%
Fee Waiver and Expense Reimbursement(1)	-0.18%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and Expense Reimbursement	0.27%

(1)	The Adviser has contractually agreed, through March 31, 2027, to reduce its advisory fee by 0.18%. This fee waiver may only be terminated by the Fund's Board of Trustees (and not by the Adviser) prior to such date.

Example

The following example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the costs of investing in other funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then hold or redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same each year.

	One Year	Three Years	Five Years	Ten Years
Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:	$28	$126	$234	$549

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year ended November 30, 2025, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 10% of the average value of its portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund will seek investment results that replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Underlying Index. The Underlying Index is an index of ETFs comprised of all active Select Sector SPDR^® ETFs in an equal weighted portfolio. These are the Communication Services Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Materials Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Energy Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Technology Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Utilities Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Financial Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Industrial Select Sector SPDR^® Fund, Health Care Select Sector SPDR^® Fund and Real Estate Select Sector SPDR^® Fund (each, an "Underlying Sector ETF" and collectively, the "Underlying Sector ETFs"). In order to track the Underlying Index, the Fund will use a "fund of funds" approach, and seek to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 90% of its total assets in the shares of the Underlying Sector ETFs. The Underlying Index is designed to track performance of the equally weighted Underlying Sector ETFs. Accordingly, the Underlying Index is rebalanced to an equal weighting quarterly during the months of March, June, September, and December.

Each Underlying Sector ETF is an "index fund" that invests in the equity securities of companies in a particular sector or group of industries. The objective of each Underlying Sector ETF is to track its respective underlying sector index by replicating the securities in the underlying sector index. Together, the eleven Underlying Sector ETFs represent the Underlying Index as a whole.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

Investors should consider the following risk factors and special considerations associated with investing in the Fund, which may cause you to lose all or part of your money. The relative significance of each risk factor summarized below may change over time and you should review each risk factor carefully because any one or more of these risk factors may result in losses to the Fund. See also the section "Risks of Underlying Sector ETFs" for additional information about the Fund's risk factors.

Investment Risk. An investment in the Fund is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount that you invest.

1

ALPS EQUAL SECTOR WEIGHT ETF

Fund of Funds Risk. The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing its assets in the Underlying Sector ETFs rather than investing directly in stocks, bonds, cash or other investments. The Fund's investment performance depends on the investment performance of the Underlying Sector ETFs in which it invests. An investment in the Fund is subject to the risks associated with the Underlying Sector ETFs that comprise the Underlying Index.

Underlying Sector ETFs Risk. Investment in the Underlying Sector ETFs may subject the Fund to the following risks: Market Risk and Non-Correlation Risk. The Fund may also be subject to certain other risks specific to each Underlying Sector ETF.

Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. The Fund's investment in an Underlying Sector ETF involves risks similar to those of investing in any fund of equity securities, such as market fluctuations caused by such factors as economic, political and social developments, inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events, changes in interest rates, recessions, supply chain disruptions, and perceived trends in stock prices. The values of equity securities could decline generally or could underperform other investments. In addition, the value of the Fund's investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural or man-made disasters or events, country instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics.

Non-Correlation Risk. The Fund's return may not match the return of the Underlying Index for a number of reasons, including operating expenses incurred by the Fund not applicable to the Underlying Index, costs in buying and selling securities, asset valuation differences and differences between the Fund's portfolio and the Underlying Index resulting from legal restrictions, cash flows or operational inefficiencies.

Fluctuation of Net Asset Value. The net asset value ("NAV") of the Fund's Shares will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund's holdings. The market prices of the Shares will generally fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV as well as the relative supply of and demand for the Shares on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the "NYSE Arca"). The Adviser cannot predict whether the Shares will trade below, at or above their NAV. 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 may in turn lead to wider bid-ask spreads or premiums/discounts for Fund shares with the result that investors may receive less than the underlying value of the Fund shares when they sell their Fund shares or pay more than the underlying value of the Fund shares when they purchase their Fund shares.

FUND PERFORMANCE

The following bar chart and table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund's performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund's average annual returns for certain time periods compare with the average annual returns of the Underlying Index and an index that represents a broad measure of market performance. Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, performance would have been lower. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Total return figures assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions and include the effect of the Fund's recurring expenses. Updated performance information is available online at www.alpsfunds.com or by calling 866.759.5679.

PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF SHARES

Individual Shares of the Fund may only be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through a broker or dealer at a market price. Shares of the Fund are listed for trading on NYSE Arca under the ticker symbol EQL and because Shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, Shares of the Fund may trade at a price greater than NAV (i.e., a premium) or less than NAV (i.e., a discount).

An investor 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 (ask) when buying or selling Shares in the secondary market (the "bid/ask spread").

Recent information, including information about the Fund's NAV, market price, premiums and discounts, and the bid/ask spreads, is included on the Fund's website at www.alpsfunds.com.

TAX INFORMATION

The Fund's distributions are taxable and will generally be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains.

PAYMENTS TO BROKER-DEALERS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES

If you purchase shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Adviser or other related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Shares or related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
