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 Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example above, affect the Fund's performance. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, the portfolio turnover rate of the BBH Select Series - Mid Cap Fund (the "Predecessor Fund") was 6% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in publicly traded mid capitalization (mid cap) equity securities. Such securities may be issued by domestic or foreign issuers. Domestic securities include companies that are incorporated or headquartered in the U.S. The Fund may invest in the securities of foreign issuers both directly and in the form of depository receipts, including both sponsored and unsponsored American Depository Receipts ("ADRs") and Global Depository Receipts ("GDRs"), each of which represent an interest in foreign securities. Securities of foreign issuers, or foreign securities, include companies that are neither incorporated nor headquartered in the U.S. The Fund primarily seeks to buy common stock and may also invest in preferred stock. The Fund may also invest in large cap and small cap publicly traded equity securities. From time to time the Fund may invest in shares of companies through "new issues" or initial public offerings ("IPOs"). Subject to applicable statutory and regulatory limitations, the Fund may invest in shares of other investment companies, consisting of exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"). The Fund may also purchase other securities with equity characteristics, including securities convertible into common stock. Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. ("BBH&Co."), through a separately identifiable department ("Investment Adviser"), considers mid cap securities to be securities that at the time of purchase have a market capitalization within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap Index. As of August 31, 2025, the market capitalization range of companies included in the Russell Midcap Index was $1.05 billion to $95.69 billion.
The Fund's strategy is based on fundamental business analysis and a long-term orientation. The Investment Adviser selects companies based on their qualitative merits, competitive profile and prospective value creation potential. The Fund follows a "buy and own" approach that does not make use of short-term trades in pursuit of small gains. The Investment Adviser believes that its long-term orientation can benefit the Fund's net performance results. Investments may be sold if they appreciate to levels at or near the higher end of the Investment Adviser's estimated ranges of intrinsic value.
The Fund is non-diversified and may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than would a diversified fund.
Principal Risks of the Fund
The principal risks of investing in the Fund and the circumstances reasonably likely to adversely affect an investment are listed and described below. The share price of the Fund changes daily, based on market conditions and other factors. A shareholder may lose money by investing in the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.
Mid Cap Company Risk:
Mid cap companies, when compared to larger companies, may experience lower trade volume and could be subject to greater and less predictable price changes. Mid cap companies may also have limited management experience or depth, limited ability to generate or borrow capital needed for growth, limited products or services, or operate in less established markets. Therefore, mid cap securities may be subject to changing economic, market, and industry conditions and experience more volatility and less liquidity over short periods.

Investment Risk:
Investors in the Fund could lose money, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount of an investment, over short or long periods of time.
Market Risk:
The price of a security may fall due to changing economic, political, regulatory or market conditions, or due to a company's or issuer's individual situation. Natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness and other public health emergencies, recession, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse effects on world economies and markets generally.
Equity Securities Risk:
Equity securities risk is the risk that prices of equity securities, such as common stock or preferred securities, rise and fall daily. Price movements may occur due to factors affecting individual companies, such as the issuance of an unfavorable earnings report, or other events affecting particular industries or the equity market as a whole. Common stock incurs additional risk because the claims of owners of preferred securities and bonds take precedence over the claims of those who own common stock.
ETF RISK:
The Fund is an ETF and is subject to the following risks:
• Trading Issues. Shares of the Fund trade on an exchange at market prices and may trade above (premium) or below (discount) their net asset value ("NAV"). An active trading market for the Fund's shares may not develop or be maintained. Trading in shares may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the NYSE Arca, make trading in shares inadvisable, such as extraordinary market volatility. In addition, there can be no assurance that shares will continue to meet the listing requirements of the NYSE Arca.
• Market Price Variance. The market price of the Fund's shares will fluctuate in response to changes in NAV and supply and demand for shares and will include a "bid-ask spread" charged by the exchange specialists, market makers, or other participants that trade the particular security. There may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly and shares may trade at a premium or discount to NAV.
• Limited Authorized Participant, Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers. There may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace and the Fund has a limited number of institutions that may act as authorized participants on an agency basis (i.e., on behalf of other market participants). Only an authorized participant who has entered into an agreement with the Fund's distributor may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund, and none of those authorized participants is obligated to engage in creation and/or redemption transactions. To the extent that authorized participants, market makers, and liquidity providers exit the business or are unable to provide their services with respect to the Fund and no other entities are able to step forward to perform their functions, the Fund's shares may trade at a premium or discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts or delisting.
Non-Diversification Risk:
Because a non-diversified fund under the federal securities laws may invest in a relatively small number of issuers compared to a diversified fund, changes in the financial condition of individual issuers, as well as political, regulatory or economic occurrences affecting such issuers may cause greater fluctuation in the value of a non-diversified fund's shares. However, the Fund intends to satisfy the asset diversification requirements for qualification as a regulated investment company (a "RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
Large Shareholder Risk:
Asset allocation decisions, particularly large redemptions, made by an investor or an investment adviser whose discretionary clients make up a large percentage of the Fund's shareholders, may adversely impact remaining Fund shareholders.

Management Risk:
The Fund is actively managed, and its success depends upon the investment skills and analytical abilities of the Investment Adviser to develop and effectively implement strategies that achieve the Fund's investment objective. Subjective decisions made by the Investment Adviser may cause the Fund to incur losses or to miss profit opportunities on which it may otherwise have capitalized.
Large Cap Company Risk:
Because the Fund may invest in large cap company securities, it may underperform other funds during periods when the Fund's large cap securities are out of favor.
Small Cap Company Risk:
Small cap companies may have limited product lines or markets. They may be less financially secure than larger, more established companies and may depend on a more limited management group than larger capitalized companies.
Non-U.S. Investment Risk:
Investing in securities of companies based outside of the United States including sponsored and unsponsored ADRs and GDRs, involves risks not typically associated with investing in securities of companies organized and operated in the United States. These risks include adverse political, social and economic developments abroad, different kinds and levels of market and issuer regulations, and the different characteristics of overseas economies and markets. These factors can make non-U.S. investments more volatile and potentially less liquid than U.S. investments. Additionally, investments in non-U.S. securities may be denominated in currencies, other than the U.S. dollar, which are subject to changes in currency exchange rates. These fluctuations could offset investment gains or add to investment losses. Unsponsored ADRs do not trade on an exchange and therefore may be difficult to sell and investors do not have the benefits and voting rights that are extended to other shareholders.
Investment in Other Investment Companies Risk:
Investments in other investment companies are subject to market and selection risk, as well as the specific risks associated with the investment companies' portfolio securities. As a shareholder of another investment company, the Fund would bear, along with other shareholders, its pro rata portion of the other investment company's expenses, including advisory fees. The shares of an investment company that trade on an exchange (for example, an ETF) may trade below their NAV at a discount, which may adversely affect the Fund's performance.
IPO Risk:
IPOs are new issues of equity securities. Securities issued in IPOs have no trading history, and information about the companies may be available for very limited periods. In addition, the prices of securities sold in IPOs may be highly volatile or may decline shortly after the IPO.
Preferred Securities Risk:
The Fund may invest in preferred securities, which are equity interests in a company that entitle the holder to receive common stock, dividends and a fixed share of the proceeds resulting from a liquidation of the company, in preference to the holders of other securities. Preferred securities may pay fixed or adjustable rates of return. Preferred securities are subject to issuer-specific and market risks applicable generally to equity securities. In addition, a company's preferred securities generally pay dividends only after the company makes required payments to holders of its bonds and other debt. If a company experiences actual or perceived changes in its financial condition or prospects, the value of preferred securities may be more greatly affected than the value of bonds and other debt.
Investments in the Fund are neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government. Shares of the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed by, BBH&Co. or any other bank, and the shares are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other federal, state or other governmental agency.

Performance of the Predecessor Fund
The Fund will be the successor to the Predecessor Fund, a mutual fund series of BBH Trust, as a result of the reorganization of the Predecessor Fund into the Fund expected to occur on November 17, 2025 (the "Reorganization"). The Fund will adopt the Predecessor Fund's performance history. Prior to the Reorganization, the Fund will not have commenced operation. The Predecessor Fund also was advised by the Investment Adviser and has the same investment objective, investment strategies, and fundamental and non-fundamental investment policies as the Fund.
The following bar chart and table give an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The performance shown for periods prior to the Reorganization represents the performance of the Predecessor Fund. The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Predecessor Fund from year to year. The table shows how the average annual returns of the Predecessor Fund for the periods indicated compared to a broad-based securities market index as well as to a mid-cap index to show how the Fund's performance compares with the returns of an index of companies that have similar market capitalizations to the Fund's investments. One cannot invest directly in an index.
Past performance, before and after taxes, does not indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated information on the Fund's performance can be obtained by visiting www.bbhfunds.com or can be obtained by phone at 1-800-575-1265.

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares
Shares of the Fund are listed on NYSE Arca and may only be bought and sold in the secondary market through a broker or dealer at a market price. Because shares trade at market price rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (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 of the Fund (ask) when buying or selling shares in the secondary market (the "bid-ask spread"). Information on the Fund's NAV, market price, premiums and discounts, and bid-ask spreads, is available on the Fund's website at bbhfunds.com.
Tax Information
The Fund's distributions are generally taxable to you as ordinary income, qualified dividend income, capital gains, or a combination of the three.

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