(1) No sales charge is payable at the time of purchase on investments of $1 million or more, although for such investments the Fund will impose a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of 1.00% on redemptions made within eighteen months of purchase.
(2) A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of 1.00% will be applied to redemptions of Class C Shares made within twelve months of the purchase date.
(3) Brookfield Public Securities Group LLC, the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"), has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its investment advisory or administration fees and/or to reimburse certain expenses of the Fund to the extent necessary to maintain the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement (excluding any front-end or contingent deferred sales loads, brokerage commissions and other transactional expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation; and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business) at no more than 1.20% for Class A Shares, 1.95% for Class C Shares, and 0.95% for Class I Shares. The fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangement will continue until at least April 30, 2027, and may not be terminated by
the Fund or the Adviser before such time. Thereafter, this arrangement may only be terminated or amended to increase the expense cap as of April 30th of each calendar year (April 29th in a leap year), provided that in the case of a termination by the Adviser, the Adviser will provide the Board of Trustees (the "Board") with written notice of its intention to terminate the arrangement prior to the expiration of its then current term. Any waivers and/or reimbursements made by the Adviser are subject to recoupment from the Fund for a period not to exceed three years after the occurrence of the waiver and/or reimbursement provided that the Fund may only make repayments to the Adviser if such repayment does not cause the Fund's expense ratio (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed both: (1) the expense cap in place at the time such amounts were waived; and (2) the Fund's current expense cap.
Example
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then 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 (taking into account the expense limitation for the first year). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 130% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in real estate investment trusts ("REITs") and other securities in the real estate industry. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will attempt to achieve its investment objective by investing, as a principal strategy, at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in publicly traded equity securities of real estate companies
listed on a domestic or foreign exchange, throughout the world, including the United States (the "80% Policy"). As part of the 80% Policy, under normal market conditions, at least 35% of the Fund's net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) will be invested in publicly traded securities of real estate companies whose primary operations or principal trading market is in a foreign market, and that are not subject to the requirements of the U.S. securities laws, markets and accounting requirements ("Foreign Securities"), and the Fund will maintain exposure to securities of real estate companies in the United States and in at least three countries outside the United States. The Fund's investments in Foreign Securities may be lower during unfavorable market conditions, which may continue for extended periods of time; provided, however, such investments will not be lower than 20% of the Fund's net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes). In determining whether market conditions are unfavorable, the Fund may consider various factors, including, among other things, the percentage of Foreign Securities in the Fund's primary benchmark index. The Fund considers an issuer's "primary operations" to be in a foreign market if the issuer (i) is organized outside the United States, or (ii) derives at least 50% of its revenues or profits from goods produced or sold, investments made, services performed, or has at least 50% of its assets located outside the United States. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in fixed income securities of any maturity, including obligations of the U.S. Government, floating rate loans, money-market instruments, and below-investment grade rated securities ("junk bonds"), as described in this Prospectus. As part of the 20% of the Fund's net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) that may be invested in fixed income securities, up to 10% of the Fund's net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) may be invested in below investment grade ("junk") fixed income securities, of which 5% may be invested in fixed income securities rated "CCC" or lower by S&P Global Ratings ("S&P") or "Caa" or lower by Moody's Ratings ("Moody's") or non-rated securities of comparable quality. The Fund, however, may not invest in securities that are in default at the time of initial investment.
The Fund may change the 80% Policy without shareholder approval. The Fund will provide shareholders with written notice at least 60 days prior to the implementation of any such changes.
The Fund defines a real estate company as any company that (i) derives at least 50% of its revenues from the ownership, operation, development, construction, financing, management or sale of commercial, industrial or residential real estate and similar activities, or (ii) invests at least 50% of its assets in such real estate.
For purposes of selecting investments, the Fund defines the real estate industry broadly. It includes, but is not limited to, the following:
• REITs;
• real estate operating companies ("REOCs");
• brokers, developers, and builders of residential, commercial, and industrial properties;
• property management firms;
• finance, mortgage, and mortgage servicing firms;
• construction supply and equipment manufacturing companies; and
• firms dependent on real estate holdings for revenues and profits, including lodging, leisure, timber, mining, and agriculture companies.
REITs are companies that own interests in real estate or in real estate related loans or other interests, and their revenue primarily consists of rent derived from owned, income producing real estate properties and capital gains from the sale of such properties. A REIT in the United States is generally not taxed on income distributed to shareholders so long as it meets tax-related requirements, including the requirement that it distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. REIT-like entities are organized outside the United States and maintain operations and receive tax treatment similar to that of U.S. REITs.
REOCs are real estate companies that have not elected to be taxed as REITs and therefore are not required to distribute taxable income and have fewer restrictions on what they can invest in.
The Fund may use futures and options on securities, indices and currencies, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, swaps and other derivatives. A derivative is a security or instrument whose value is determined by reference to the value or the change in value of one or more securities, currencies, indices or other financial instruments. The Fund may use derivatives for a variety of purposes, including:
• as a hedge against adverse changes in the market prices of securities, interest rates or currency exchange rates;
• as a substitute for purchasing or selling securities;
• to increase the Fund's return as a non-hedging strategy that may be considered speculative; and
• to manage the Fund's portfolio characteristics.
The Fund may invest up to 25% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in publicly traded securities of real estate companies, whose primary operations or principal trading market is in an "emerging market." The Fund may invest in securities of foreign companies in the form of American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs") and European Depositary Receipts ("EDRs"). In addition, the Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities deemed illiquid and may make short sales of securities in an amount not to exceed 10% of the Fund's net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes). Securities in which the Fund may invest include, but are not limited to, common equity shares, preferred equity shares, and units of beneficial interest in real estate companies. The Fund retains the ability to invest in real estate companies of any market size capitalization. The Fund does not invest in real estate directly.
The Adviser utilizes a fundamental, bottom-up, value-based selection methodology, taking into account short-term considerations, such as temporary market mispricing, and long-term considerations, such as values of assets and cash flows. The Adviser also draws upon the expertise and knowledge within Brookfield Asset Management ULC and its affiliates, which provide extensive owner/operator insights into industry drivers and trends. The Adviser takes a balanced approach to investing, seeking to mitigate risk through diversification, credit analysis, economic analysis and review of sector and industry trends. The Adviser uses proprietary research to select individual securities that it believes can add value from income and/or the potential for capital appreciation. The proprietary research may include an assessment of a company's general financial condition, its competitive positioning and management strength, as well as industry characteristics and other factors. The Fund may sell a security that becomes overvalued or no longer offers an attractive risk/reward profile. A security may also be sold due to changes in portfolio strategy or cash flow needs.
No assurance can be given that the Fund's investment objective will be achieved. The Fund's policy of concentration in companies in the real estate industry is a fundamental policy of the Fund. This fundamental policy may not be changed without the approval of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act").
Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund
Risk is inherent in all investing. The value of your investment in the Fund, as well as the amount of return you receive on your investment, may fluctuate significantly from day to day and over time. You may lose part or all of your investment in the Fund or your investment may not perform as well as other similar investments. The following summarizes the principal risks that have been identified for the Fund.
Real Estate Market Risk. Since the Fund concentrates its assets in the real estate industry, your investment in the Fund will be closely linked to the performance of the real estate markets. Property values may fall due to increasing vacancies or declining rents resulting from unanticipated economic, legal, cultural or technological developments. Real estate company prices also may drop because of the failure of borrowers to pay their loans and poor management, including any potential defects in mortgage documentation or in the foreclosure process. Recently, commercial real estate foreclosures have notably increased due to sustained higher interest rates and the marked prevalence of remote work arrangements in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in a waning demand for commercial office space. These developments may also adversely affect the price at which companies can sell real estate, because purchasers may not be able to obtain financing on attractive terms at all. These developments affecting the real estate industry could adversely affect the real estate companies in which the Fund invests.
Inflation Risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the real value of the Fund's shares and distributions thereon can decline. Inflation risk is linked to increases in the prices of goods and services and a decrease in the purchasing power of money. Inflation often is accompanied or followed by a recession, or period of decline in economic activity, which may include job loss and other hardships and may cause the value of securities to go down generally. Inflation risk is greater for fixed-income instruments with longer maturities. In addition, this risk may be significantly elevated compared to normal conditions because of recent monetary policy measures and the current interest rate environment.
REIT Risk. REITs are dependent upon management skills and generally may not be diversified. REITs are also subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers and self-liquidation. In addition, REITs could possibly fail to qualify for pass-through of income treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Other factors may also adversely affect a borrower's or a lessee's ability to meet its obligations to the REIT. In the event of a default by a borrower or lessee, the REIT may experience delays in enforcing its rights as a mortgagee or lessor and may incur substantial costs associated with protecting its investments. REITs may have lower trading volumes and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements than the overall securities markets. Foreign REIT-like entities will be subject to foreign securities risk (see "Foreign (Non-U.S.) Securities Risk").
In addition to its own expenses, the Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any management and other expenses paid by REITs in which it invests. Many real estate companies, including REITs, utilize leverage.
Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities represent an ownership interest in an issuer, rank junior in a company's capital structure to debt securities and consequently may entail greater risk of loss than debt securities. Equity securities are subject to the risk that stock prices may rise and fall in periodic cycles and may perform poorly relative to other investments. This risk may be greater in the short term.
Geopolitical Risk. Occurrence of global events such as war, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, country instability, infectious disease epidemics, pandemics and other public health issues, market instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers and other governmental trade or market control programs, the potential exit of a country from its respective union and related geopolitical events, may result in market volatility and may have long-lasting impacts on both the U.S. and global financial markets. For example, the U.S. government has imposed, and may in the future further increase, tariffs on certain foreign goods, and some foreign governments have instituted retaliatory tariffs on certain U.S. goods. There is significant uncertainty as to further actions that may
be taken by the U.S. and foreign governments with respect to trade policy. In addition, ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, and the potential for wider conflict, have increased volatility and uncertainty in the financial markets, adversely affected regional and global economies, and could present material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Fund and the performance of the Fund's investments or operations. These events, as well as other recent geopolitical events, such as rising tensions between the Chinese government and Taiwan, and related changes in foreign and domestic political and economic conditions, could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, secondary trading, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment and other factors affecting the value of the Fund's investments.
Concentration Risk. Because the Fund will invest more than 25% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in securities of issuers directly or indirectly engaged in the real estate industry, the Fund may be subject to greater volatility with respect to its portfolio securities than a fund that does not concentrate its investments.
Investment Risk. An investment in the Fund is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount that you invest.
Adviser Investment Risk. The Adviser and its affiliates (each, an "Adviser Investor") may, from time to time, own a significant amount of the Fund's shares (an "Adviser Investment"). An Adviser Investor may make an Adviser Investment to enable the Fund to reach critical mass or because the Adviser Investor has capital to invest and wants exposure to the Fund's investment strategy or for other reasons. If an Adviser Investment is substantial relative to the Fund's overall asset size, a partial or complete redemption of the Adviser Investment, which may occur at any time, including at the time of other inflows or outflows, may have a material adverse effect on the Fund's expense ratio, portfolio turnover and the overall ability to manage the Fund. The Adviser Investor reserves the right to redeem its Adviser Investment at any time in accordance with applicable law in its sole and absolute discretion.
Portfolio Selection Risk. The Adviser's judgment about the quality, relative yield, relative value or market trends affecting a particular sector or region, market segment, security or about interest rates generally may prove to be incorrect.
Issuer Risk. Issuer risk is the risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer's goods or service.
Market Risk. Global economies and financial markets are 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. Securities in the Fund's portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in general financial markets, a particular financial market, or other asset classes due to a number of factors, including
inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, 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. For example, the U.S. and other countries are periodically involved in disputes over trade and other matters, which may result in tariffs, investment restrictions and adverse impacts on affected companies and securities. Trade disputes may adversely affect the economies of the U.S. and its trading partners, as well as companies directly or indirectly affected and financial markets generally. The current political climate, including political and diplomatic events within the U.S. and abroad, may adversely affect the U.S. regulatory landscape, the general market environment and/or investor sentiment, which could have an adverse impact on the Fund's investments and operations. 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 disasters or events, country instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics. For example, the ongoing armed conflicts between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and among Israel, Iran, Hamas and other militant groups in the Middle East have caused and may continue to cause significant market disruptions. As a result, there is significant uncertainty around how these conflicts will evolve, which may result in market volatility and may have long-lasting impacts on both the U.S. and global financial markets.
Liquidity Risk. Some securities, including options and swaps, held by the Fund may be difficult to sell, not publicly traded, or illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil or adverse investor perceptions. Such securities may include securities that are not readily marketable and may be difficult to value. If the Fund desires to sell such securities when a ready buyer is not available at a price that the Fund deems representative of their value, the value of the Fund could be adversely affected. If the Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet redemption requests or other cash needs, the Fund may be forced to sell at a loss.
Construction and Development Risk. Investments in new or development stage real estate related projects, carry the risk that a project may not be completed within budget, within the agreed time frame and to the agreed specification.
Derivatives Risk. The Fund's use of derivatives may reduce the Fund's returns and/or increase volatility. Volatility is defined as the characteristic of a security, an index or a market to fluctuate significantly in price within a short time period. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation. The possible lack of a liquid secondary market for derivatives and the resulting inability of the Fund to sell or otherwise close a derivatives position could expose the Fund to losses and could make derivatives more difficult for the Fund to value accurately. Valuation may be more difficult
in times of market turmoil since many investors and market makers may be reluctant to purchase complex instruments or quote prices for them. Certain transactions in derivatives involve substantial leverage risk and may expose the Fund to potential losses that exceed the amount originally invested by the Fund.
Foreign (Non-U.S.) Securities Risk. Risks of investing in foreign securities include currency risks, future political and economic developments and possible imposition of foreign withholding taxes on income payable on the securities. In addition, there may be less publicly available information about a foreign issuer than about a domestic issuer, and foreign issuers may not be subject to the same accounting, auditing and financial recordkeeping standards and requirements as domestic issuers. These risks are more pronounced in the securities of companies located in emerging markets.
Emerging Markets Risk. Securities of companies in emerging markets or companies with significant exposure to emerging markets may be more volatile than those of companies in more developed markets. Emerging market countries generally have less developed markets and economies and, in some countries, less mature governments and governmental institutions. Investing in securities of companies in emerging markets may entail special risks relating to potential economic, political or social instability and the risks of expropriation, nationalization, confiscation or the imposition of restrictions on foreign investment, the lack of hedging instruments, and on repatriation of capital invested. In addition, the availability and reliability of information material to an investment decision, particularly financial information from these companies in emerging markets, may be limited in comparison to the scope and reliability of financial information provided by U.S. companies.
Foreign Currency Risk. The Fund will invest in instruments denominated in U.S. and foreign currencies. The Fund's net asset value ("NAV") could decline as a result of changes in the exchange rates between foreign currencies in which a security is denominated and the U.S. dollar. Certain foreign countries may impose restrictions on the ability of issuers of foreign securities to make payment of principal and interest to investors located outside the country, due to blockage of foreign currency exchanges or otherwise.
Fixed Income Risk. The value of fixed income securities fluctuate based on a variety of factors including interest rates, the maturity of the security, the creditworthiness of an issuer, the liquidity of the security and general bond market conditions. At times there may be an imbalance of supply and demand in the fixed income markets which could result in greater price volatility, less liquidity, wider trading spreads and a lack of price transparency.
The value of fixed income securities may also be dependent on the creditworthiness of the issuer of such securities. A deterioration in the financial condition of an issuer or a deterioration in general economic conditions could cause an issuer to fail to pay principal or interest when due.
Interest Rate Risk. A rise in interest rates will cause the price of fixed income securities to fall. Generally, fixed income securities with longer maturities carry greater interest rate risk. Interest rate changes may be influenced by a number of factors, including government and central banking authority actions, inflation expectations, and supply and demand. Generally, when interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities can be expected to decline. The longer the maturity of a fixed income security, the greater its sensitivity to interest rate changes. The Fund may be subject to heightened interest rate risk as a result of changes in economic conditions, inflation and government monetary policy, such as changes in the federal funds rate. There is no way of predicting the frequency or quantum of potential interest rate changes.
"Junk" Bond Risk. Debt securities that are below investment grade, called "junk bonds," generally offer a higher yield than is offered by higher rated securities, but are speculative, have a higher risk of default or are already in default, tend to be less liquid and are more difficult to value than higher grade securities. Junk bonds tend to be volatile and more susceptible to adverse events and negative sentiments.
Leverage Risk. Some transactions entered into by the Fund may give rise to a form of economic leverage. These transactions may include, among others, derivatives, and may expose the Fund to greater risk and increase its costs. The use of leverage may cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations or to meet any required asset segregation requirements. Increases and decreases in the value of the Fund's portfolio will be magnified when the Fund uses leverage.
Return of Capital Risk. The Fund expects to make quarterly distributions at a level percentage rate regardless of its quarterly performance. All or a portion of such distributions may represent a return of capital. A return of capital is the portion of the distribution representing the return of your investment in the Fund. A return of capital is generally tax-free to the extent of a shareholder's basis in the Fund's shares and reduces the shareholder's basis in their shares and results in a higher capital gain or lower capital loss when the shares on which the return of capital distribution was received are sold. After a shareholder's basis in the shares has been reduced to zero, return of capital distributions will be treated as gain from the sale of the shareholder's shares.
Redemption Risk. The Fund may need to sell its holdings in order to meet shareholder redemption requests. The Fund could experience a loss when selling securities to meet redemption requests if the redemption requests are unusually large or frequent, occur in times of overall market turmoil or declining prices for the securities sold, or when the securities the Fund wishes to or is required to sell are illiquid.
Preferred Securities Risk. There are various risks associated with investing in preferred securities, including credit risk, interest rate risk, deferral and omission of distributions, subordination to bonds and other debt securities in a company's capital structure, limited liquidity, limited voting rights and special redemption rights.
Small- and Mid-Capitalization Risk. The risk that returns from small- and mid-capitalization stocks may trail returns from the overall stock market. Historically, these stocks have been more volatile in price than the large-capitalization stocks.
Portfolio Turnover Risk. Portfolio turnover is a measure of the Fund's trading activity over a one-year period. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% would indicate that the Fund sold and replaced the entire value of its securities holdings during the period. The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading and may have a high portfolio turnover rate, which could increase the Fund's transaction costs, have a negative impact on performance, and generate higher capital gain distributions to shareholders than if the Fund had a lower portfolio turnover rate.
The Fund's shares will change in value, and you could lose money by investing in the Fund. The Fund may not achieve its investment objective. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit with a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency.
Performance
The accompanying bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing how the Fund's total return has varied for annual periods through December 31, 2025, and by showing how the Fund's average annual total returns for one-, five-, and ten-year periods and since inception compare with those of a broad measure of market performance and an additional index that has investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund. On March 25, 2021, the Board, on behalf of the Fund, approved a proposal to close the Fund's Class I Shares (the "Legacy Class I Shares"). Following the close of business on April 30, 2021, shareholders holding the Legacy Class I Shares had their shares automatically converted (the "Conversion") into the Fund's Class Y Shares (the "Legacy Class Y Shares"). Following the conversion, the Fund's Legacy Class Y Shares were renamed "Class I Shares" (the "new Class I Shares"). As a result of the Conversion, the Fund's new Class I Shares adopted the Legacy Class Y Shares' performance and accounting history. Figures shown in the bar chart reflect the performance history of the Fund's new Class I Shares (i.e., the Legacy Class Y Shares). The Fund's Legacy Class I Shares and Legacy Class Y Shares had substantially similar returns because (i) the shares were invested in the same portfolio of securities; and (ii) the shares had the same expense structure.
For periods prior to April 30, 2021, the performance information for the Fund's new Class I Shares reflects the performance history of the Legacy Class Y Shares. The Fund's performance (before and after taxes) is
not an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance is available at https://privatewealth.brookfield.com/fund/brookfield-global-listed-real-estate-fund or by calling 1-855-244-4859.
(1) Prior to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the returns shown in the bar chart are for the Legacy Class Y Shares. The Class A Shares and Class C Shares would have substantially similar returns because the shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities, and the returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses, such as sales loads that are not reflected in the bar chart. If sales loads were reflected, the Fund's returns would have been less than those shown.
During the period of time shown in the bar chart, the highest return for a calendar quarter was 16.29% (quarter ended September 30, 2024) and the lowest return for a calendar quarter was -28.18% (quarter ended March 31, 2020).

(1) Class I (i.e., the Legacy Class Y Shares) was incepted on December 1, 2011, and Classes A and C were incepted on May 1, 2012.
(2) The MSCI World Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets.
(3) The FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index (USD) is designed to track the performance of listed real estate companies and REITS worldwide. The FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index (USD) references Legacy Class Y's inception date (reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes, except the reinvestment of dividends net of withholding taxes). The index presented is calculated on a total return basis net of foreign withholding taxes on dividends, and does not reflect fees, brokerage commissions, or other expenses. Net total return indexes reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes (for international indexes), using the tax rates applicable to non-resident investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties.
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are shown only for Class I Shares (i.e., the Legacy Class Y Shares) and after-tax returns for other classes will vary due to the differences in expenses. Furthermore, the after-tax returns shown are not relevant to
those who hold their shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts ("IRAs"). In certain cases, the figures representing "Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares" may be higher than other returns for the same period. A higher after-tax return results when a capital loss occurs upon redemption and provides an annual tax deduction that benefits shareholders.

Important Information about the Fund Liquidation. On March 5, 2026, the Board approved a proposal to close the Fund to new and subsequent investments and thereafter to liquidate the Fund (the "Liquidation"). Accordingly, effective March 6, 2026, the Fund no longer accepts orders from new investors or existing shareholders to purchase Fund shares. On or about June 30, 2026 (the "Liquidation Date"), all of the assets of the Fund will have been liquidated completely, the shares of any shareholders holding shares on the Liquidation Date will be redeemed at the net asset value per share and the Fund will then be terminated as a series of the Trust. At any time prior to the Liquidation Date, shareholders of the Fund may redeem their shares of the Fund and receive the net asset value thereof, pursuant to the procedures set forth under "Redemption of Fund Shares" in this Prospectus. Shareholders may also exchange their Fund shares for shares of the same class of other mutual funds in the Trust. In preparation for the Liquidation, the Fund may deviate from its investment objective and principal investment strategies.
For tax purposes, with respect to shares held in a taxable account, the automatic redemption of shares of the Fund on the Liquidation Date will generally be treated as any other redemption of shares (i.e., as a sale that may result in gain or loss for federal income tax purposes). Shareholders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax treatment of the Liquidation.
Tax Information
The Fund's distributions are generally taxable to you as ordinary income, capital gains, or some combination of both, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or individual retirement account.
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 Fund, the Adviser and the Fund's distributor or its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson or financial adviser to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
