The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 2 times (200%) the daily percentage change of the common stock of American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ: AAL).

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund (“Shares”). The fees are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Investors may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in mutual funds and other exchange-traded funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell 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. The figures shown would be the same whether or not you sold your Shares at the end of each period.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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. The Fund does not have any portfolio turnover because it has not yet been launched.

The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that attempts to replicate 2 times (200%) the daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock by entering into financial instruments such as swaps and options on the Underlying Stock as well as directly purchasing the Underlying Stock. At the end of each trading day, the notional exposure against the Underlying Stock obtained through the combination of these instruments will be approximately 200% of the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund aims to generate 2 times the daily performance of the Underlying Stock for a single day. A “single day” is defined as being calculated “from the close of regular trading on one trading day to the close on the next trading day.”

The Fund will aim to primarily obtain its notional exposure against the Underlying Stock through swap agreements. In case the Fund faces restriction in increasing its swap notional exposure, it may use option contracts on the Underlying Stock or buy the Underlying Stock directly.

Swaps:

The Fund may enter into one or more swap agreements with major financial institutions for a specified period ranging from a day to more than one year whereby the Fund and the financial institution will agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on the Underlying Stock. The gross return to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties is calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” e.g., the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount representing the Underlying Stock.

The Fund is expected to post between 25% and 50% of its assets as collateral under the swap agreements.

Options:

Depending on market conditions, market liquidity and operational constraints, the Fund may either buy deep in-the-money call option contracts, or simultaneously buy an at-the-money call option contract and sell an at-the-money put option contract (a strategy generally referred to as synthetic forward). All option contracts bought and sold will be against the Underlying Stock. The Fund will pay the premium for each call option contract bought and receive the premium for each put option sold. The Fund’s participation in potential changes in the price of the Underlying Stock is based on the price of the Underlying Stock at the time the Fund buys the call and sells the put option contracts, the strike price of the call (put) option contract and the Underlying Stock price at the time of the contract’s expiration. The maturity of the option contract bought and sold may vary from 1-week to 1-month.

As part of the Fund’s strategy, the Fund may buy a combination of standardized exchange-traded and FLexible EXchange® (“FLEX”) call and put options contracts that are based on the value of the price returns of the Underlying Stock. The Fund will only buy and sell options contracts that are listed for trading on regulated U.S. exchanges. Traditional exchange-traded options contracts have standardized terms, such as the type (call or put), the reference asset, the strike price and expiration date. Exchange-listed options contracts are guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). FLEX Options are a type of exchange-listed options contract with uniquely customizable terms that allow investors to customize key terms like type, strike price and expiration date that are standardized in a typical options contract. FLEX Options are also guaranteed for settlement by the OCC.

In general, an option is a contract that gives the purchaser (holder) of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (call) or sell to (put) the seller (writer) of the option the security or currency underlying (in this case, the Underlying Stock) the option at a specified exercise price.

An option is said to be “European Style” when it can be exercised only at expiration whereas an “American Style” option can be exercised at any time prior to expiration. The Fund may use either European or American style options.

The Fund’s cash balance may be invested in the following instruments: (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; (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 as collateral for the Fund’s swap agreements; (5) repurchase transactions, which are transactions under which the purchaser (i.e., the Fund) acquires securities and the seller agrees, at the time of the sale, to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed-upon time and price, thereby determining the yield during the purchaser’s holding period, and/or; (6) US equities listed on a national security exchange, sovereign fixed income securities with a credit rating at least equal to the United States Federal Government, or corporate debt securities, such as commercial paper and other short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by businesses that are rated investment grade for the purposes of entering into swap agreements with the Fund’s swap counterparties; (7) and in the securities of one or more ETFs designed to provide exposure to short-term investments, including the GraniteShares Short Term Box ETF (“LBOX”), which is advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser. LBOX is an actively managed ETF that seeks to generate a short-term, fixed-income-like return through a market-neutral strategy involving simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions (known as “box spreads”) on exchange-listed reference assets, and/or; (8) reverse repurchase agreements, which are agreements under which the Fund sells portfolio securities to a counterparty, such as a bank or broker-dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price and time.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have 2 times the daily performance of the Underlying Stock.

Due to the Fund’s investment exposure to the Underlying Stock, the Fund’s investment exposure is concentrated in the airline industry.

American Airlines Group, Inc.’s primary business activity is the operation of a network air carrier, providing scheduled air transportation for passengers and cargo. AAL is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

In addition, information regarding AAL may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents.

Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day’s return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from 200% of the return of the Underlying Stock over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the Underlying Stock’s performance is flat over time, and as a result of daily rebalancing, the Underlying Stock volatility and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the Underlying Stock’s performance increases over a period longer than a single day.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND

As with all ETFs, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund’s NAV and performance.

Underlying Stock Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to risks of the air travel sector. The Underlying Stock is subject to many risks that can negatively impact its revenue and viability including, but are not limited to price volatility risk, management risk, inflation risk, global economic risk, growth risk, supply and demand risk, operations risk, regulatory risk, environmental risk, terrorism risk and the risk of natural disasters. The Underlying Stock may be significantly affected by changes in fuel prices, which may be very volatile, the imposition of tariffs, and/or changes in labor relations and insurance costs. The Underlying Stock is highly dependent on aircraft or related equipment from a small number of suppliers, and consequently, issues affecting the availability, reliability, safety, or longevity of such aircraft or equipment. The Underlying Stock has a high level of debt and other obligations which may limit its ability to fund general corporate requirements and obtain additional financing, may limit its flexibility in responding to competitive developments and may cause its business to be vulnerable to adverse economic and industry conditions. The Fund’s daily returns may be affected by many factors but will depend on the performance and volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk: The Fund aims to replicate the leveraged daily returns of the Underlying Stock and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Underlying Stock’s performance, before fees and expenses. Compounding affects all investments but has a more significant impact on funds that aim to replicate leveraged daily returns. For a Fund aiming to replicate 2 times the daily performance of an Underlying Stock, if adverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock reduces the amount of a shareholder’s investment, any further adverse daily performance will lead to a smaller dollar loss because the shareholder’s investment had already been reduced by the prior adverse performance. Equally, however, if favorable daily performance of the Underlying Stock increases the amount of a shareholder’s investment, the dollar amount lost due to future adverse performance will increase because the shareholder’s investment has increased.

The effect of compounding becomes pronounced as the Underlying Stock volatility and the holding period increase. The impact of compounding will impact each shareholder differently depending on the period of time an investment in the Fund is held and the volatility of the Underlying Stock during shareholder’s holding period of an investment in the Fund.

The chart below provides examples of how Underlying Stock volatility could affect the Fund’s performance. Fund performance for periods greater than one single day can be estimated given any set of assumptions for the following factors: a) Underlying Stock volatility; b) Underlying Stock’s performance; c) period of time; d) financing rates associated with leveraged exposure; e) other Fund expenses; and f) the Underlying Stock’s dividends. The chart below illustrates the impact of two principal factors – Underlying Stock volatility and performance – on Fund performance. The chart shows estimated Fund returns for a number of combinations of Underlying Stock volatility and performance over a one-year period. Performance shown in the chart assumes that (i) there were no Fund expenses; and (ii) borrowing rates (needed to obtain a leveraged long exposure) of 0%. If Fund expenses and/or actual borrowing/lending rates were reflected, the estimated returns would be lower than those shown. Particularly during periods of higher Underlying Stock volatility, compounding will cause results for periods longer than a trading day to vary from the performance of the Underlying Stock.

As shown in the chart below, the Fund would be expected to lose 6.0% if the Underlying Stock provided no return over a one-year period during which the Underlying Stock experienced annualized volatility of 25%. At higher ranges of volatility, there is a chance of a significant loss of value in the Fund, even if the Underlying Stock return is flat.

For instance, if the Underlying Stock annualized volatility is 100%, the Fund would be expected to lose 63.3% of its value, even if the cumulative Underlying Stock return for the year was 0%. Areas shaded red (or dark gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return less than 200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock and those shaded green (or light gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return more than 200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock. The Fund’s actual returns may be significantly better or worse than the returns shown below as a result of any of the factors discussed above or in “Tracking Error Risk” below.

The Underlying Stock’s annualized historical volatility rate for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 49.27%. During the five-year period observed the Underlying Stock’s highest volatility rate over a 12-month period was 58.73% and volatility for a shorter period of time may have been substantially higher. The Underlying Stock’s annualized performance for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was -7.32%. Historical volatility and performance are not indications of what the Underlying Stock volatility and performance will be in the future. The volatility of instruments that reflect the value of the Underlying Stock, such as swaps, may differ from the volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Correlation Risk: A number of factors may affect the Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective, and the percentage change of the Fund’s NAV each day may differ, perhaps significantly in amount, and possibly even direction, from 150% of the percentage change of Underlying Stock on such day.

In order to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, the Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep exposure consistent with its investment objective. Being materially under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock may prevent the Fund from achieving a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock and may expose the Fund to greater leverage risk. Market disruptions or closure, regulatory restrictions, market volatility, illiquidity in the markets for the financial instruments in which the Fund invests, and other factors will adversely affect the Fund’s ability to adjust exposure to requisite levels. The target amount of portfolio exposure is impacted dynamically by Underlying Stock’s movements, including intraday movements. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Fund will have perfect 200% exposure during the day or at the end of each day and the likelihood of being materially under- or overexposed is higher on days when Underlying Stock is volatile, particularly when Underlying Stock is volatile at or near the close of the trading day.

A number of other factors may also adversely affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, financing costs associated with the use of derivatives, income items, valuation methodology, accounting standards and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund may take or refrain from taking positions in order to improve tax efficiency, comply with regulatory restrictions, or for other reasons, each of which may negatively affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock. The Fund may also be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock. Additionally, the Fund’s underlying investments and/or reference assets may trade on markets that may not be open on the same day as the Fund, which may cause a difference between the changes in the daily performance of the Fund and changes in the performance of Underlying Stock. Any of these factors could decrease correlation between the performance of the Fund and Underlying Stock and may hinder the Fund’s ability to meet its daily investment objective on or around that day.

Leverage Risk: The Fund obtains investment exposure in excess of its net assets by utilizing leverage and may lose more money in market conditions that are adverse to its investment objective than a fund that does not utilize leverage. An investment in the Fund is exposed to the risk that a decline in the daily performance of the Underlying Stock will be magnified. This means that an investment in the Fund will be reduced by an amount equal to 2% for every 1% daily decline in the Underlying Stock, not including the costs of financing leverage and other operating expenses, which would further reduce its value. The Fund could theoretically lose an amount greater than its net assets in the event the Underlying Stock declines more than 50%. Leverage will also have the effect of magnifying any differences in the Fund performance’s correlation with the Underlying Stock.

The Fund may suspend the issuance of Creation Units only for a limited time and only due to extraordinary circumstances, such as when the markets on which the Fund’s portfolio holdings are traded are closed for a limited period of time. If the Fund is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to the Underlying Stock due to the limited availability of necessary investments or financial instruments, the Fund may, among other things, fail to meet its investment objective or incur increased transaction costs. If creations are suspended, or the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units is otherwise adversely affected, the Fund’s shares could trade at a significant premium or discount to their net asset value, or the bid-ask spread of the Fund’s shares could widen significantly, as the arbitrage mechanism that typically keeps secondary market prices in line with the Fund’s NAV would be impaired. In the case of a period during which creations are suspended, the Fund could experience significant redemptions, which may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices and incur increased transaction and other costs and make greater taxable distributions to shareholders of the Fund.

Counterparty Risk: A counterparty (the other party to a transaction or an agreement or the party with whom the Fund executes transactions) to a transaction (including repurchase transaction) with the Fund may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal, interest or settlement payments, or otherwise honor its obligations.

Derivatives Risk: The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) the risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships. Trading derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities.

Exchange Traded Fund Structure Risk: The Fund is structured as an exchange-traded fund and as a result is subject to special risks, including:

The Fund will be subject to regulatory constraints relating to level of value at risk that the Fund may incur through its derivative portfolio. To the extent the Fund exceeds these regulatory thresholds over an extended period, the Fund may determine that it is necessary to make adjustments to the Fund’s investment strategy, including the desired daily inverse performance for the Fund.

Fixed Income Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

Management Risk: The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular security or derivative in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

Market and Geopolitical Risk: The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Fund’s portfolio. It is not known how long any future impacts of other significant events described above will or would last, but there could be a prolonged period of global economic slowdown, which may impact your Fund investment. Therefore, the Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

Non-Diversified Risk: The Fund’s portfolio focuses on the Underlying Stock and will be subject to potential for volatility than a diversified fund.

Swap Risk: Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses.

Options Contracts Risk: The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund, in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests is substantially influenced by the value of the Underlying Stock. The Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Fund may expire worthless. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such a date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate at the underlying instrument. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in values of options contracts and the underlying instrument, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by the Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. Furthermore, when the Fund seeks to trade out of positions, especially near expiration, there is an added risk that the Fund may be required to allocate resources unexpectedly to fulfill these obligations. This potential exposure to physical settlement can significantly impact the Fund’s liquidity and market exposure, particularly in volatile market conditions. If the Fund sells non-cash settled options contracts, it would be obligated to receive shares of the Underlying Stock when the option is exercised. Consequently, there is a risk that the Fund may have to physically acquire the Underlying Stock shares at the strike price, which could result in the Fund holding the Underlying Stock, and an asset that has declined in value. The level of exposure obtained through option contracts should at most be equal to the Fund’s Daily Leverage Factor times the Fund’s net asset value.

Rebalancing Risk: If for any reason the Fund is unable to rebalance all or a portion of its portfolio, or if all or a portion of the portfolio is rebalanced incorrectly, the Fund’s investment exposure may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. In these instances, the Fund may have investment exposure to the Underlying Stock that is significantly greater or less than its stated multiple. As a result, the Fund may be more exposed to leverage risk than if it had been properly rebalanced and may not achieve its investment objective.

Trading Halt Risk: Although the Underlying Stock’s shares are listed for trading on an exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will be available at all times and the exchange may halt trading of such shares in certain circumstances. A halt in trading in the Underlying Stock’s shares is expected, in turn, to result in a halt in the trading in the Fund’s shares. Trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on the exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on an exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to exchange “circuit breaker” rules.” In the event of a trading halt for an extended period of time, the Fund may be unable to execute arrangements with swap counterparties that are necessary to implement the Fund’s investment strategy.

Tracking Error Risk: Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund’s performance from that of its investment objective which aims to replicate 2 times the daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock. The performance of the Fund may diverge from that of its investment objective for a number of reasons. Tracking error may occur because of transaction costs, the Fund’s holding of cash, differences in accrual of dividends, being under- or overexposed to the Underlying Stock or the need to meet new or existing regulatory requirements. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions. The Fund may be required to deviate from its investment objective as a result of market restrictions or other legal reasons, including regulatory limits or other restrictions on securities that may be purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates.

Affiliated ETFs Risk: The Fund may invest in equity securities of other ETFs for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser. It is possible that a conflict of interest may arise. Additionally, to the extent the Fund invests in the securities of another affiliated ETF, the Fund will be subject to the investment risks of the ETF. Shareholders of the Fund are subject to duplicative expenses to the extent of the Fund’s investment in any affiliated ETF. Finally, the shares of the ETFs in which the Fund may invest will be listed on a national securities exchange and the Fund will purchase or sell these shares on the secondary market at its current market price, which may be more or less than its net asset value per share.

Box Spread ETF Risk. The Fund may invest in LBOX, an affiliated ETF advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser, that employs a market-neutral box spread strategy to generate short-term, fixed-income-like returns. Box spread positions involve simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions on the same reference asset and are structured to capture an implied financing rate. While box spreads are designed to be market-neutral and to generate a return approximating prevailing short-term interest rates, they are subject to execution risk, counterparty risk with respect to the options positions, and the risk that the implied financing rate embedded in the box spread diverges from prevailing market rates in periods of market stress. The Fund’s investments in LBOX are made pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, which imposes no percentage-of-assets limits on the Fund’s investment in an exchange-traded fund. Accordingly, the Fund could, at any time, hold a material allocation in LBOX. The Fund’s adviser faces a conflict of interest in allocating Fund assets to an affiliated fund such as LBOX; see “Affiliated ETFs Risk.”

Reverse Repurchase Agreement Risk: When the Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it sells portfolio securities to a counterparty and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price at a later date, effectively using those securities as collateral for a short-term loan. There is no guarantee that the return on any securities purchased with such proceeds will exceed the cost of the borrowing. The Fund also bears the risk that the counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement fails to perform its obligations, and the Fund may lose the use of the securities pledged for the duration of the agreement. The Fund’s obligations under reverse repurchase agreements must be covered by liquid assets. See also “Counterparty Risk” and “Leverage Risk” above.

Investing in U.S. Equities Risk: Investing in U.S. issuers subjects the Fund to legal, regulatory, political, currency, security, and economic risks that are specific to the U.S. Certain changes in the U.S., such as a weakening of the U.S. economy or a decline in its financial markets, may have an adverse effect on U.S. issuers.

US Treasury Risk: U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. Securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Tax Risk: In order to qualify for the favorable tax treatment generally available to regulated investment companies, the Fund must satisfy certain diversification and other requirements. In particular, the Fund generally may not acquire a security if, as a result of the acquisition, more than 50% of the value of the Fund’s assets would be invested in (a) issuers in which the Fund has, in each case, invested more than 5% of the Fund’s assets and (b) issuers more than 10% of whose outstanding voting securities are owned by the Fund. The application of these requirements to certain investments (including swaps) that may be entered into by the Fund is unclear. In addition, the application of these requirements to the Fund’s investment objective is not clear, particularly because the Fund’s investment objective focuses on the performance of the stock of a single issuer. If the Fund were to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation, and distributions to its shareholders would not be deductible by the Fund in computing its taxable income.

Performance: Because the Fund has not yet launched, the performance section is omitted. In the future, performance information will be presented in this section of this Prospectus. Also, shareholder reports containing financial and performance information will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of -1 time (-100%) the daily percentage change of the common stock of American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ: AAL).

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund (“Shares”). The fees are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Investors may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in mutual funds and other exchange-traded funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell 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. The figures shown would be the same whether or not you sold your Shares at the end of each period.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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. The Fund does not have any portfolio turnover because it has not yet been launched.

The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that attempts to replicate the inverse (-100%) daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock by entering into financial instruments such as swaps and options on the Underlying Stock. At the end of each trading day, the notional exposure against the Underlying Stock obtained through the combination of these instruments will be approximately -100% of the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund aims to generate the inverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock for a single day. A “single day” is defined as being calculated “from the close of regular trading on one trading day to the close on the next trading day.”

The Fund will aim to primarily obtain its notional exposure against the Underlying Stock through swap agreements. In case the Fund faces restriction in increasing its swap notional exposure, it may use option contracts on the Underlying Stock.

Swaps:

The Fund may enter into one or more swap agreements with major financial institutions for a specified period ranging from a day to more than one year whereby the Fund and the financial institution will agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on the Underlying Stock. The gross return to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties is calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” e.g., the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount representing the Underlying Stock.

The Fund is expected to post between 25% and 50% of its assets as collateral under the swap agreements.

Options:

Depending on market conditions, market liquidity and operational constraints, the Fund may either buy deep in-the-money put option contracts, or simultaneously buy an at-the-money put option contract and sell an at-the-money call option contract (a strategy generally referred to as synthetic forward). All option contracts bought and sold will be against the Underlying Stock. The Fund will pay the premium for each put option contract bought and receive the premium for each call option sold. The Fund’s participation in potential changes in the price of the Underlying Stock is based on the price of the Underlying Stock at the time the Fund buys the put and sells the call option contracts, the strike price of the call (put) option contract and the Underlying Stock price at the time of the contract’s expiration. The maturity of the option contract bought and sold may vary from 1-week to 1-month.

As part of the Fund’s strategy, the Fund may buy a combination of standardized exchange-traded and FLexible EXchange® (“FLEX”) call and put options contracts that are based on the value of the price returns of the Underlying Stock. The Fund will only buy and sell options contracts that are listed for trading on regulated U.S. exchanges. Traditional exchange-traded options contracts have standardized terms, such as the type (call or put), the reference asset, the strike price and expiration date. Exchange-listed options contracts are guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). FLEX Options are a type of exchange-listed options contract with uniquely customizable terms that allow investors to customize key terms like type, strike price and expiration date that are standardized in a typical options contract. FLEX Options are also guaranteed for settlement by the OCC.

In general, an option is a contract that gives the purchaser (holder) of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (call) or sell to (put) the seller (writer) of the option the security or currency underlying (in this case, the Underlying Stock) the option at a specified exercise price.

An option is said to be “European Style” when it can be exercised only at expiration whereas an “American Style” option can be exercised at any time prior to expiration. The Fund may use either European or American style options.

The Fund’s cash balance may be invested in the following instruments: (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; (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 as collateral for the Fund’s swap agreements; (5) repurchase transactions, which are transactions under which the purchaser (i.e., the Fund) acquires securities and the seller agrees, at the time of the sale, to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed-upon time and price, thereby determining the yield during the purchaser’s holding period, and/or; (6) US equities listed on a national security exchange, sovereign fixed income securities with a credit rating at least equal to the United States Federal Government, or corporate debt securities, such as commercial paper and other short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by businesses that are rated investment grade for the purposes of entering into swap agreements with the Fund’s swap counterparties; (7) and in the securities of one or more ETFs designed to provide exposure to short-term investments, including the GraniteShares Short Term Box ETF (“LBOX”), which is advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser. LBOX is an actively managed ETF that seeks to generate a short-term, fixed-income-like return through a market-neutral strategy involving simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions (known as “box spreads”) on exchange-listed reference assets, and/or; (8) reverse repurchase agreements, which are agreements under which the Fund sells portfolio securities to a counterparty, such as a bank or broker-dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price and time.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have the inverse performance of the Underlying Stock.

Due to the Fund’s investment exposure to the Underlying Stock, the Fund’s investment exposure is concentrated in the airline industry.

American Airlines Group, Inc.’s primary business activity is the operation of a network air carrier, providing scheduled air transportation for passengers and cargo. AAL is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Information provided to or filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by AAL pursuant to the Exchange Act can be located by reference to the Securities and Exchange Commission file number 001-08400 through the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, information regarding AAL may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents.

Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day’s return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from -100% of the return of the Underlying Stock over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the Underlying Stock’s performance is flat over time, and as a result of daily rebalancing, the Underlying Stock volatility and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the Underlying Stock’s performance decreases over a period longer than a single day.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND

As with all ETFs, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund’s NAV and performance.

Underlying Stock Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to risks of the air travel sector. The Underlying Stock is subject to many risks that can negatively impact its revenue and viability including, but are not limited to price volatility risk, management risk, inflation risk, global economic risk, growth risk, supply and demand risk, operations risk, regulatory risk, environmental risk, terrorism risk and the risk of natural disasters. The Underlying Stock may be significantly affected by changes in fuel prices, which may be very volatile, the imposition of tariffs, and/or changes in labor relations and insurance costs. The Underlying Stock is highly dependent on aircraft or related equipment from a small number of suppliers, and consequently, issues affecting the availability, reliability, safety, or longevity of such aircraft or equipment. The Underlying Stock has a high level of debt and other obligations which may limit its ability to fund general corporate requirements and obtain additional financing, may limit its flexibility in responding to competitive developments and may cause its business to be vulnerable to adverse economic and industry conditions. The Fund’s daily returns may be affected by many factors but will depend on the performance and volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk: The Fund aims to replicate the daily inverse returns of the Underlying Stock and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Underlying Stock’s performance, before fees and expenses. Compounding affects all investments but has a more significant impact on funds that aim to replicate inverse daily returns. For a Fund aiming to replicate the inverse performance of an Underlying Stock, if adverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock reduces the amount of a shareholder’s investment, any further adverse daily performance will lead to a smaller dollar loss because the shareholder’s investment had already been reduced by the prior adverse performance. Equally, however, if favorable daily performance of the Underlying Stock increases the amount of a shareholder’s investment, the dollar amount lost due to future adverse performance will increase because the shareholder’s investment has increased.

The effect of compounding becomes pronounced as the Underlying Stock volatility and the holding period increase. The impact of compounding will impact each shareholder differently depending on the period of time an investment in the Fund is held and the volatility of the Underlying Stock during shareholder’s holding period of an investment in the Fund.

The chart below provides examples of how Underlying Stock volatility could affect the Fund’s performance. Fund performance for periods greater than one single day can be estimated given any set of assumptions for the following factors: a) Underlying Stock volatility; b) Underlying Stock’s performance; c) period of time; d) financing rates associated with leveraged exposure; e) other Fund expenses; and f) the Underlying Stock’s dividends. The chart below illustrates the impact of two principal factors – Underlying Stock volatility and performance – on Fund performance. The chart shows estimated Fund returns for a number of combinations of Underlying Stock volatility and performance over a one-year period. Performance shown in the chart assumes that (i) there were no Fund expenses; and (ii) borrowing rates (needed to obtain a leveraged long exposure) of 0%. If Fund expenses and/or actual borrowing/lending rates were reflected, the estimated returns would be lower than those shown. Particularly during periods of higher Underlying Stock volatility, compounding will cause results for periods longer than a trading day to vary from the performance of the Underlying Stock.

As shown in the chart below, the Fund would be expected to lose 6.0% if the Underlying Stock provided no return over a one-year period during which the Underlying Stock experienced annualized volatility of 25%. At higher ranges of volatility, there is a chance of a significant loss of value in the Fund, even if the Underlying Stock return is flat.

For instance, if the Underlying Stock’s annualized volatility is 100%, the Inverse Fund would be expected to lose 63.5% of its value, even if the cumulative Underlying Stock’s return for the year was 0%. Areas shaded red (or dark gray) represent those scenarios where the Inverse Fund can be expected to return less than -100% of the performance of the Underlying Stock and those shaded green (or light gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return more than -100% of the performance of the Underlying Stock. The Inverse Fund’s actual returns may be significantly better or worse than the returns shown below as a result of any of the factors discussed above or in “Tracking Error Risk” below.

The Underlying Stock’s annualized historical volatility rate for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 49.27%. During the five-year period observed the Underlying Stock’s highest volatility rate over a 12-month period was 58.73% and volatility for a shorter period of time may have been substantially higher. The Underlying Stock’s annualized performance for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was -7.32%. Historical volatility and performance are not indications of what the Underlying Stock volatility and performance will be in the future. The volatility of instruments that reflect the value of the Underlying Stock, such as swaps, may differ from the volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Correlation Risk: A number of factors may affect the Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective, and the percentage change of the Fund’s NAV each day may differ, perhaps significantly in amount, and possibly even direction, from -100% of the percentage change of Underlying Stock on such day.

In order to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, the Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep exposure consistent with its investment objective. Being materially under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock may prevent the Fund from achieving a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock and may expose the Fund to greater leverage risk. Market disruptions or closure, regulatory restrictions, market volatility, illiquidity in the markets for the financial instruments in which the Fund invests, and other factors will adversely affect the Fund’s ability to adjust exposure to requisite levels. The target amount of portfolio exposure is impacted dynamically by Underlying Stock’s movements, including intraday movements. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Fund will have perfect -100% exposure during the day or at the end of each day and the likelihood of being materially under- or overexposed is higher on days when Underlying Stock is volatile, particularly when Underlying Stock is volatile at or near the close of the trading day.

A number of other factors may also adversely affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, financing costs associated with the use of derivatives, income items, valuation methodology, accounting standards and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund may take or refrain from taking positions in order to improve tax efficiency, comply with regulatory restrictions, or for other reasons, each of which may negatively affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock. The Fund may also be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock. Additionally, the Fund’s underlying investments and/or reference assets may trade on markets that may not be open on the same day as the Fund, which may cause a difference between the changes in the daily performance of the Fund and changes in the performance of Underlying Stock. Any of these factors could decrease correlation between the performance of the Fund and Underlying Stock and may hinder the Fund’s ability to meet its daily investment objective on or around that day.

Short Sale Exposure Risk: The Fund will seek inverse or “short” exposure through financial instruments, which would cause the Fund to be exposed to certain risks associated with selling short. These risks include, under certain market conditions, an increase in the volatility and decrease in the liquidity of the instruments underlying the short position, which may lower the Fund’s return, result in a loss, have the effect of limiting the Fund’s ability to obtain inverse exposure through financial instruments, or require the Fund to seek inverse exposure through alternative investment strategies that may be less desirable or more costly to implement. To the extent that, at any particular point in time, the instruments underlying the short position may be thinly traded or have a limited market, including due to regulatory action, the Fund may be unable to meet its investment objective due to a lack of available securities or counterparties. During such periods, the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units may be adversely affected. Obtaining inverse exposure through these instruments may be considered an aggressive investment technique. Any income, dividends or payments by any assets underlying the Fund’s short positions, if any, would negatively impact the Fund. The Fund could theoretically lose an amount greater than its net assets in the event the Underlying Stock increases more than 100%.

The Fund may suspend the issuance of Creation Units only for a limited time and only due to extraordinary circumstances, such as when the markets on which the Fund’s portfolio holdings are traded are closed for a limited period of time. If the Fund is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to the Underlying Stock due to the limited availability of necessary investments or financial instruments, the Fund may, among other things, fail to meet its investment objective or incur increased transaction costs. If creations are suspended, or the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units is otherwise adversely affected, the Fund’s shares could trade at a significant premium or discount to their net asset value, or the bid-ask spread of the Fund’s shares could widen significantly, as the arbitrage mechanism that typically keeps secondary market prices in line with the Fund’s NAV would be impaired. In the case of a period during which creations are suspended, the Fund could experience significant redemptions, which may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices and incur increased transaction and other costs and make greater taxable distributions to shareholders of the Fund.

Counterparty Risk: A counterparty (the other party to a transaction or an agreement or the party with whom the Fund executes transactions) to a transaction (including repurchase transaction) with the Fund may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal, interest or settlement payments, or otherwise honor its obligations.

Derivatives Risk: The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) the risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships. Trading derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities.

Exchange Traded Fund Structure Risk: The Fund is structured as an exchange-traded fund and as a result is subject to special risks, including:

The Fund will be subject to regulatory constraints relating to level of value at risk that the Fund may incur through its derivative portfolio. To the extent the Fund exceeds these regulatory thresholds over an extended period, the Fund may determine that it is necessary to make adjustments to the Fund’s investment strategy, including the desired daily inverse performance for the Fund.

Fixed Income Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

Management Risk: The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular security or derivative in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

Market and Geopolitical Risk: The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Fund’s portfolio. It is not known how long any future impacts of other significant events described above will or would last, but there could be a prolonged period of global economic slowdown, which may impact your Fund investment. Therefore, the Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

Non-Diversified Risk: The Fund’s portfolio focuses on the Underlying Stock and will be subject to potential for volatility than a diversified fund.

Swap Risk: Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses.

Options Contracts Risk: The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund, in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests is substantially influenced by the value of the Underlying Stock. The Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Fund may expire worthless. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such a date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate at the underlying instrument. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in values of options contracts and the underlying instrument, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by the Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. Furthermore, when the Fund seeks to trade out of positions, especially near expiration, there is an added risk that the Fund may be required to allocate resources unexpectedly to fulfill these obligations. This potential exposure to physical settlement can significantly impact the Fund’s liquidity and market exposure, particularly in volatile market conditions. If the Fund sells non-cash settled options contracts, it would be obligated to receive shares of the Underlying Stock when the option is exercised. Consequently, there is a risk that the Fund may have to physically acquire the Underlying Stock shares at the strike price, which could result in the Fund holding the Underlying Stock, and an asset that has declined in value. The level of exposure obtained through option contracts should at most be equal to the Fund’s Daily Leverage Factor times the Fund’s net asset value.

Rebalancing Risk: If for any reason the Fund is unable to rebalance all or a portion of its portfolio, or if all or a portion of the portfolio is rebalanced incorrectly, the Fund’s investment exposure may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. In these instances, the Fund may have investment exposure to the Underlying Stock that is significantly greater or less than its stated multiple. As a result, the Fund may be more exposed to leverage risk than if it had been properly rebalanced and may not achieve its investment objective.

Trading Halt Risk: Although the Underlying Stock’s shares are listed for trading on an exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will be available at all times and the exchange may halt trading of such shares in certain circumstances. A halt in trading in the Underlying Stock’s shares is expected, in turn, to result in a halt in the trading in the Fund’s shares. Trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on the exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on an exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to exchange “circuit breaker” rules.” In the event of a trading halt for an extended period of time, the Fund may be unable to execute arrangements with swap counterparties that are necessary to implement the Fund’s investment strategy.

Tracking Error Risk: Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund’s performance from that of its investment objective which aims to replicate the inverse daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock. The performance of the Fund may diverge from that of its investment objective for a number of reasons. Tracking error may occur because of transaction costs, the Fund’s holding of cash, differences in accrual of dividends, being under- or overexposed to the Underlying Stock or the need to meet new or existing regulatory requirements. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions such as market disruptions. The Fund may be required to deviate from its investment objectives as a result of market restrictions or other legal reasons, including regulatory limits or other restrictions on securities that may be purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates.

Affiliated ETFs Risk: The Fund may invest in equity securities of other ETFs for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser. It is possible that a conflict of interest may arise. Additionally, to the extent the Fund invests in the securities of another affiliated ETF, the Fund will be subject to the investment risks of the ETF. Shareholders of the Fund are subject to duplicative expenses to the extent of the Fund’s investment in any affiliated ETF. Finally, the shares of the ETFs in which the Fund may invest will be listed on a national securities exchange and the Fund will purchase or sell these shares on the secondary market at its current market price, which may be more or less than its net asset value per share.

Box Spread ETF Risk. The Fund may invest in LBOX, an affiliated ETF advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser, that employs a market-neutral box spread strategy to generate short-term, fixed-income-like returns. Box spread positions involve simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions on the same reference asset and are structured to capture an implied financing rate. While box spreads are designed to be market-neutral and to generate a return approximating prevailing short-term interest rates, they are subject to execution risk, counterparty risk with respect to the options positions, and the risk that the implied financing rate embedded in the box spread diverges from prevailing market rates in periods of market stress. The Fund’s investments in LBOX are made pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, which imposes no percentage-of-assets limits on the Fund’s investment in an exchange-traded fund. Accordingly, the Fund could, at any time, hold a material allocation in LBOX. The Fund’s adviser faces a conflict of interest in allocating Fund assets to an affiliated fund such as LBOX; see “Affiliated ETFs Risk.”

Reverse Repurchase Agreement Risk: When the Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it sells portfolio securities to a counterparty and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price at a later date, effectively using those securities as collateral for a short-term loan. There is no guarantee that the return on any securities purchased with such proceeds will exceed the cost of the borrowing. The Fund also bears the risk that the counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement fails to perform its obligations, and the Fund may lose the use of the securities pledged for the duration of the agreement. The Fund’s obligations under reverse repurchase agreements must be covered by liquid assets. See also “Counterparty Risk” above.

Investing in U.S. Equities Risk: Investing in U.S. issuers subjects the Fund to legal, regulatory, political, currency, security, and economic risks that are specific to the U.S. Certain changes in the U.S., such as a weakening of the U.S. economy or a decline in its financial markets, may have an adverse effect on U.S. issuers.

US Treasury Risk: U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. Securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Tax Risk: In order to qualify for the favorable tax treatment generally available to regulated investment companies, the Fund must satisfy certain diversification and other requirements. In particular, the Fund generally may not acquire a security if, as a result of the acquisition, more than 50% of the value of the Fund’s assets would be invested in (a) issuers in which the Fund has, in each case, invested more than 5% of the Fund’s assets and (b) issuers more than 10% of whose outstanding voting securities are owned by the Fund. The application of these requirements to certain investments (including swaps) that may be entered into by the Fund is unclear. In addition, the application of these requirements to the Fund’s investment objective is not clear, particularly because the Fund’s investment objective focuses on the performance of the stock of a single issuer. If the Fund were to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation, and distributions to its shareholders would not be deductible by the Fund in computing its taxable income.

Performance: Because the Fund has not yet launched, the performance section is omitted. In the future, performance information will be presented in this section of this Prospectus. Also, shareholder reports containing financial and performance information will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of -2 times (-200%) the daily percentage change of the common stock of American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ: AAL).

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund (“Shares”). The fees are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Investors may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in mutual funds and other exchange-traded funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell 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. The figures shown would be the same whether or not you sold your Shares at the end of each period.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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. The Fund does not have any portfolio turnover because it has not yet been launched.

The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that attempts to replicate 2x the inverse (-200%) daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock by entering into financial instruments such as swaps and options on the Underlying Stock. At the end of each trading day, the notional exposure against the Underlying Stock obtained through the combination of these instruments will be approximately -200% of the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund aims to generate the inverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock for a single day. A “single day” is defined as being calculated “from the close of regular trading on one trading day to the close on the next trading day.”

The Fund will aim to primarily obtain its notional exposure against the Underlying Stock through swap agreements. In case the Fund faces restriction in increasing its swap notional exposure, it may use option contracts on the Underlying Stock.

Swaps:

The Fund may enter into one or more swap agreements with major financial institutions for a specified period ranging from a day to more than one year whereby the Fund and the financial institution will agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on the Underlying Stock. The gross return to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties is calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” e.g., the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount representing the Underlying Stock.

The Fund is expected to post between 25% and 50% of its assets as collateral under the swap agreements.

Options:

Depending on market conditions, market liquidity and operational constraints, the Fund may either buy deep in-the-money put option contracts, or simultaneously buy an at-the-money put option contract and sell an at-the-money call option contract (a strategy generally referred to as synthetic forward). All option contracts bought and sold will be against the Underlying Stock. The Fund will pay the premium for each put option contract bought and receive the premium for each call option sold. The Fund’s participation in potential changes in the price of the Underlying Stock is based on the price of the Underlying Stock at the time the Fund buys the put and sells the call option contracts, the strike price of the call (put) option contract and the Underlying Stock price at the time of the contract’s expiration. The maturity of the option contract bought and sold may vary from 1-week to 1-month.

As part of the Fund’s strategy, the Fund may buy a combination of standardized exchange-traded and FLexible EXchange® (“FLEX”) call and put options contracts that are based on the value of the price returns of the Underlying Stock. The Fund will only buy and sell options contracts that are listed for trading on regulated U.S. exchanges. Traditional exchange-traded options contracts have standardized terms, such as the type (call or put), the reference asset, the strike price and expiration date. Exchange-listed options contracts are guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). FLEX Options are a type of exchange-listed options contract with uniquely customizable terms that allow investors to customize key terms like type, strike price and expiration date that are standardized in a typical options contract. FLEX Options are also guaranteed for settlement by the OCC.

In general, an option is a contract that gives the purchaser (holder) of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (call) or sell to (put) the seller (writer) of the option the security or currency underlying (in this case, the Underlying Stock) the option at a specified exercise price.

An option is said to be “European Style” when it can be exercised only at expiration whereas an “American Style” option can be exercised at any time prior to expiration. The Fund may use either European or American style options.

The Fund’s cash balance may be invested in the following instruments: (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; (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 as collateral for the Fund’s swap agreements; (5) repurchase transactions, which are transactions under which the purchaser (i.e., the Fund) acquires securities and the seller agrees, at the time of the sale, to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed-upon time and price, thereby determining the yield during the purchaser’s holding period, and/or; (6) US equities listed on a national security exchange, sovereign fixed income securities with a credit rating at least equal to the United States Federal Government, or corporate debt securities, such as commercial paper and other short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by businesses that are rated investment grade for the purposes of entering into swap agreements with the Fund’s swap counterparties; (7) and in the securities of one or more ETFs designed to provide exposure to short-term investments, including the GraniteShares Short Term Box ETF (“LBOX”), which is advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser. LBOX is an actively managed ETF that seeks to generate a short-term, fixed-income-like return through a market-neutral strategy involving simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions (known as “box spreads”) on exchange-listed reference assets, and/or; (8) reverse repurchase agreements, which are agreements under which the Fund sells portfolio securities to a counterparty, such as a bank or broker-dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price and time.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have 2 times the inverse performance of the Underlying Stock.

Due to the Fund’s investment exposure to the Underlying Stock, the Fund’s investment exposure is concentrated in the airline industry.

American Airlines Group, Inc.’s primary business activity is the operation of a network air carrier, providing scheduled air transportation for passengers and cargo. AAL is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

In addition, information regarding AAL may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents.

Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day’s return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from -200% of the return of the Underlying Stock over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the Underlying Stock’s performance is flat over time, and as a result of daily rebalancing, the Underlying Stock volatility and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the Underlying Stock’s performance decreases over a period longer than a single day.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND

As with all ETFs, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund’s NAV and performance.

Underlying Stock Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to risks of the air travel sector. The Underlying Stock is subject to many risks that can negatively impact its revenue and viability including, but are not limited to price volatility risk, management risk, inflation risk, global economic risk, growth risk, supply and demand risk, operations risk, regulatory risk, environmental risk, terrorism risk and the risk of natural disasters. The Underlying Stock may be significantly affected by changes in fuel prices, which may be very volatile, the imposition of tariffs, and/or changes in labor relations and insurance costs. The Underlying Stock is highly dependent on aircraft or related equipment from a small number of suppliers, and consequently, issues affecting the availability, reliability, safety, or longevity of such aircraft or equipment. The Underlying Stock has a high level of debt and other obligations which may limit its ability to fund general corporate requirements and obtain additional financing, may limit its flexibility in responding to competitive developments and may cause its business to be vulnerable to adverse economic and industry conditions. The Fund’s daily returns may be affected by many factors but will depend on the performance and volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk: The Fund aims to replicate the daily inverse returns of the Underlying Stock and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Underlying Stock’s performance, before fees and expenses. Compounding affects all investments but has a more significant impact on funds that aim to replicate inverse daily returns. For a Fund aiming to replicate the inverse performance of an Underlying Stock, if adverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock reduces the amount of a shareholder’s investment, any further adverse daily performance will lead to a smaller dollar loss because the shareholder’s investment had already been reduced by the prior adverse performance. Equally, however, if favorable daily performance of the Underlying Stock increases the amount of a shareholder’s investment, the dollar amount lost due to future adverse performance will increase because the shareholder’s investment has increased.

The effect of compounding becomes pronounced as the Underlying Stock volatility and the holding period increase. The impact of compounding will impact each shareholder differently depending on the period of time an investment in the Fund is held and the volatility of the Underlying Stock during shareholder’s holding period of an investment in the Fund.

The chart below provides examples of how Underlying Stock volatility could affect the Fund’s performance. Fund performance for periods greater than one single day can be estimated given any set of assumptions for the following factors: a) Underlying Stock volatility; b) Underlying Stock’s performance; c) period of time; d) financing rates associated with leveraged exposure; e) other Fund expenses; and f) the Underlying Stock’s dividends. The chart below illustrates the impact of two principal factors – Underlying Stock volatility and performance – on Fund performance. The chart shows estimated Fund returns for a number of combinations of Underlying Stock volatility and performance over a one-year period. Performance shown in the chart assumes that (i) there were no Fund expenses; and (ii) borrowing rates (needed to obtain a leveraged long exposure) of 0%. If Fund expenses and/or actual borrowing/lending rates were reflected, the estimated returns would be lower than those shown. Particularly during periods of higher Underlying Stock volatility, compounding will cause results for periods longer than a trading day to vary from the performance of the Underlying Stock.

As shown in the chart below, the Fund would be expected to lose 17.0% if the Underlying Stock provided no return over a one-year period during which the Underlying Stock experienced annualized volatility of 25%. At higher ranges of volatility, there is a chance of a significant loss of value in the Fund, even if the Underlying Stock return is flat.

For instance, if the Underlying Stock’s annualized volatility is 100%, the Inverse Fund would be expected to lose 95.3% of its value, even if the cumulative Underlying Stock’s return for the year was 0%. Areas shaded red (or dark gray) represent those scenarios where the Inverse Fund can be expected to return less than -200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock and those shaded green (or light gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return more than -200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock. The Inverse Fund’s actual returns may be significantly better or worse than the returns shown below as a result of any of the factors discussed above or in “Tracking Error Risk” below.

The Underlying Stock’s annualized historical volatility rate for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 49.27%. During the five-year period observed the Underlying Stock’s highest volatility rate over a 12-month period was 58.73% and volatility for a shorter period of time may have been substantially higher. The Underlying Stock’s annualized performance for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was -7.32%. Historical volatility and performance are not indications of what the Underlying Stock volatility and performance will be in the future. The volatility of instruments that reflect the value of the Underlying Stock, such as swaps, may differ from the volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Correlation Risk: A number of factors may affect the Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective, and the percentage change of the Fund’s NAV each day may differ, perhaps significantly in amount, and possibly even direction, from -200% of the percentage change of Underlying Stock on such day.

In order to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, the Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep exposure consistent with its investment objective. Being materially under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock may prevent the Fund from achieving a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock and may expose the Fund to greater leverage risk. Market disruptions or closure, regulatory restrictions, market volatility, illiquidity in the markets for the financial instruments in which the Fund invests, and other factors will adversely affect the Fund’s ability to adjust exposure to requisite levels. The target amount of portfolio exposure is impacted dynamically by Underlying Stock’s movements, including intraday movements. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Fund will have perfect -200% exposure during the day or at the end of each day and the likelihood of being materially under- or overexposed is higher on days when Underlying Stock is volatile, particularly when Underlying Stock is volatile at or near the close of the trading day.

A number of other factors may also adversely affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, financing costs associated with the use of derivatives, income items, valuation methodology, accounting standards and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund may take or refrain from taking positions in order to improve tax efficiency, comply with regulatory restrictions, or for other reasons, each of which may negatively affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock. The Fund may also be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock. Additionally, the Fund’s underlying investments and/or reference assets may trade on markets that may not be open on the same day as the Fund, which may cause a difference between the changes in the daily performance of the Fund and changes in the performance of Underlying Stock. Any of these factors could decrease correlation between the performance of the Fund and Underlying Stock and may hinder the Fund’s ability to meet its daily investment objective on or around that day.

Short Sale Exposure Risk: The Fund will seek inverse or “short” exposure through financial instruments, which would cause the Fund to be exposed to certain risks associated with selling short. These risks include, under certain market conditions, an increase in the volatility and decrease in the liquidity of the instruments underlying the short position, which may lower the Fund’s return, result in a loss, have the effect of limiting the Fund’s ability to obtain inverse exposure through financial instruments, or require the Fund to seek inverse exposure through alternative investment strategies that may be less desirable or more costly to implement. To the extent that, at any particular point in time, the instruments underlying the short position may be thinly traded or have a limited market, including due to regulatory action, the Fund may be unable to meet its investment objective due to a lack of available securities or counterparties. During such periods, the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units may be adversely affected. Obtaining inverse exposure through these instruments may be considered an aggressive investment technique. Any income, dividends or payments by any assets underlying the Fund’s short positions, if any, would negatively impact the Fund. The Fund could theoretically lose an amount greater than its net assets in the event the Underlying Stock increases more than 50%.

The Fund may suspend the issuance of Creation Units only for a limited time and only due to extraordinary circumstances, such as when the markets on which the Fund’s portfolio holdings are traded are closed for a limited period of time. If the Fund is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to the Underlying Stock due to the limited availability of necessary investments or financial instruments, the Fund may, among other things, fail to meet its investment objective or incur increased transaction costs. If creations are suspended, or the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units is otherwise adversely affected, the Fund’s shares could trade at a significant premium or discount to their net asset value, or the bid-ask spread of the Fund’s shares could widen significantly, as the arbitrage mechanism that typically keeps secondary market prices in line with the Fund’s NAV would be impaired. In the case of a period during which creations are suspended, the Fund could experience significant redemptions, which may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices and incur increased transaction and other costs and make greater taxable distributions to shareholders of the Fund.

Counterparty Risk: A counterparty (the other party to a transaction or an agreement or the party with whom the Fund executes transactions) to a transaction (including repurchase transaction) with the Fund may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal, interest or settlement payments, or otherwise honor its obligations.

Derivatives Risk: The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) the risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships. Trading derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities.

Exchange Traded Fund Structure Risk: The Fund is structured as an exchange-traded fund and as a result is subject to special risks, including:

The Fund will be subject to regulatory constraints relating to level of value at risk that the Fund may incur through its derivative portfolio. To the extent the Fund exceeds these regulatory thresholds over an extended period, the Fund may determine that it is necessary to make adjustments to the Fund’s investment strategy, including the desired daily inverse performance for the Fund.

Fixed Income Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

Management Risk: The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular security or derivative in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

Market and Geopolitical Risk: The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Fund’s portfolio. It is not known how long any future impacts of other significant events described above will or would last, but there could be a prolonged period of global economic slowdown, which may impact your Fund investment. Therefore, the Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

Non-Diversified Risk: The Fund’s portfolio focuses on the Underlying Stock and will be subject to potential for volatility than a diversified fund.

Swap Risk: Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses.

Options Contracts Risk: The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund, in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests is substantially influenced by the value of the Underlying Stock. The Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Fund may expire worthless. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such a date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate at the underlying instrument. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in values of options contracts and the underlying instrument, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by the Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. Furthermore, when the Fund seeks to trade out of positions, especially near expiration, there is an added risk that the Fund may be required to allocate resources unexpectedly to fulfill these obligations. This potential exposure to physical settlement can significantly impact the Fund’s liquidity and market exposure, particularly in volatile market conditions. If the Fund sells non-cash settled options contracts, it would be obligated to receive shares of the Underlying Stock when the option is exercised. Consequently, there is a risk that the Fund may have to physically acquire the Underlying Stock shares at the strike price, which could result in the Fund holding the Underlying Stock, and an asset that has declined in value. The level of exposure obtained through option contracts should at most be equal to the Fund’s Daily Leverage Factor times the Fund’s net asset value.

Rebalancing Risk: If for any reason the Fund is unable to rebalance all or a portion of its portfolio, or if all or a portion of the portfolio is rebalanced incorrectly, the Fund’s investment exposure may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. In these instances, the Fund may have investment exposure to the Underlying Stock that is significantly greater or less than its stated multiple. As a result, the Fund may be more exposed to leverage risk than if it had been properly rebalanced and may not achieve its investment objective.

Trading Halt Risk: Although the Underlying Stock’s shares are listed for trading on an exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will be available at all times and the exchange may halt trading of such shares in certain circumstances. A halt in trading in the Underlying Stock’s shares is expected, in turn, to result in a halt in the trading in the Fund’s shares. Trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on the exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on an exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to exchange “circuit breaker” rules.” In the event of a trading halt for an extended period of time, the Fund may be unable to execute arrangements with swap counterparties that are necessary to implement the Fund’s investment strategy.

Tracking Error Risk: Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund’s performance from that of its investment objective which aims to replicate -2 times the daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock. The performance of the Fund may diverge from that of its investment objective for a number of reasons. Tracking error may occur because of transaction costs, the Fund’s holding of cash, differences in accrual of dividends, being under- or overexposed to the Underlying Stock or the need to meet new or existing regulatory requirements. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions such as market disruptions. The Fund may be required to deviate from its investment objectives as a result of market restrictions or other legal reasons, including regulatory limits or other restrictions on securities that may be purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates.

Affiliated ETFs Risk: The Fund may invest in equity securities of other ETFs for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser. It is possible that a conflict of interest may arise. Additionally, to the extent the Fund invests in the securities of another affiliated ETF, the Fund will be subject to the investment risks of the ETF. Shareholders of the Fund are subject to duplicative expenses to the extent of the Fund’s investment in any affiliated ETF. Finally, the shares of the ETFs in which the Fund may invest will be listed on a national securities exchange and the Fund will purchase or sell these shares on the secondary market at its current market price, which may be more or less than its net asset value per share.

Box Spread ETF Risk. The Fund may invest in LBOX, an affiliated ETF advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser, that employs a market-neutral box spread strategy to generate short-term, fixed-income-like returns. Box spread positions involve simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions on the same reference asset and are structured to capture an implied financing rate. While box spreads are designed to be market-neutral and to generate a return approximating prevailing short-term interest rates, they are subject to execution risk, counterparty risk with respect to the options positions, and the risk that the implied financing rate embedded in the box spread diverges from prevailing market rates in periods of market stress. The Fund’s investments in LBOX are made pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, which imposes no percentage-of-assets limits on the Fund’s investment in an exchange-traded fund. Accordingly, the Fund could, at any time, hold a material allocation in LBOX. The Fund’s adviser faces a conflict of interest in allocating Fund assets to an affiliated fund such as LBOX; see “Affiliated ETFs Risk.”

Reverse Repurchase Agreement Risk: When the Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it sells portfolio securities to a counterparty and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price at a later date, effectively using those securities as collateral for a short-term loan. There is no guarantee that the return on any securities purchased with such proceeds will exceed the cost of the borrowing. The Fund also bears the risk that the counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement fails to perform its obligations, and the Fund may lose the use of the securities pledged for the duration of the agreement. The Fund’s obligations under reverse repurchase agreements must be covered by liquid assets. See also “Counterparty Risk” above.

Investing in U.S. Equities Risk: Investing in U.S. issuers subjects the Fund to legal, regulatory, political, currency, security, and economic risks that are specific to the U.S. Certain changes in the U.S., such as a weakening of the U.S. economy or a decline in its financial markets, may have an adverse effect on U.S. issuers.

US Treasury Risk: U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. Securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Tax Risk: In order to qualify for the favorable tax treatment generally available to regulated investment companies, the Fund must satisfy certain diversification and other requirements. In particular, the Fund generally may not acquire a security if, as a result of the acquisition, more than 50% of the value of the Fund’s assets would be invested in (a) issuers in which the Fund has, in each case, invested more than 5% of the Fund’s assets and (b) issuers more than 10% of whose outstanding voting securities are owned by the Fund. The application of these requirements to certain investments (including swaps) that may be entered into by the Fund is unclear. In addition, the application of these requirements to the Fund’s investment objective is not clear, particularly because the Fund’s investment objective focuses on the performance of the stock of a single issuer. If the Fund were to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation, and distributions to its shareholders would not be deductible by the Fund in computing its taxable income.

Performance: Because the Fund has not yet launched, the performance section is omitted. In the future, performance information will be presented in this section of this Prospectus. Also, shareholder reports containing financial and performance information will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 2 times (200%) the daily percentage change of the common stock of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL).

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund (“Shares”). The fees are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Investors may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in mutual funds and other exchange-traded funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell 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. The figures shown would be the same whether or not you sold your Shares at the end of each period.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 0% of the average value of its portfolio, since the Fund invested only in instruments that are excluded from portfolio turnover rate calculations. However, if the Fund’s use of derivatives were reflected, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate would be higher.

The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that attempts to replicate 2 times (200%) the daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock by entering into financial instruments such as swaps and options on the Underlying Stock as well as directly purchasing the Underlying Stock. At the end of each trading day, the notional exposure against the Underlying Stock obtained through the combination of these instruments will be approximately 200% of the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund aims to generate 2 times the daily performance of the Underlying Stock for a single day. A “single day” is defined as being calculated “from the close of regular trading on one trading day to the close on the next trading day.”

The Fund will aim to primarily obtain its notional exposure against the Underlying Stock through swap agreements. In case the Fund faces restriction in increasing its swap notional exposure, it may use option contracts on the Underlying Stock or buy the Underlying Stock directly.

Swaps

The Fund may enter into one or more swap agreements with major financial institutions for a specified period ranging from a day to more than one year whereby the Fund and the financial institution will agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on the Underlying Stock. The gross return to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties is calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” e.g., the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount representing the Underlying Stock.

The Fund is expected to post between 25% and 50% of its assets as collateral under the swap agreements.

Options:

Depending on market conditions, market liquidity and operational constraints, the Fund may either buy deep in-the-money call option contracts, or simultaneously buy an at-the-money call option contract and sell an at-the-money put option contract (a strategy generally referred to as synthetic forward). All option contracts bought and sold will be against the Underlying Stock. The Fund will pay the premium for each call option contract bought and receive the premium for each put option sold. The Fund’s participation in potential changes in the price of the Underlying Stock is based on the price of the Underlying Stock at the time the Fund buys the call and sells put option contracts, the strike price of the call (put) option contract and the Underlying Stock price at the time of the contract’s expiration. The maturity of the option contract bought and sold may vary from 1-week to 1-month.

As part of the Fund’s strategy, the Fund may buy a combination of standardized exchange-traded and FLexible EXchange® (“FLEX”) call and put options contracts that are based on the value of the price returns of the Underlying Stock. The Fund will only buy and sell options contracts that are listed for trading on regulated U.S. exchanges. Traditional exchange-traded options contracts have standardized terms, such as the type (call or put), the reference asset, the strike price and expiration date. Exchange-listed options contracts are guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). FLEX Options are a type of exchange-listed options contract with uniquely customizable terms that allow investors to customize key terms like type, strike price and expiration date that are standardized in a typical options contract. FLEX Options are also guaranteed for settlement by the OCC.

In general, an option is a contract that gives the purchaser (holder) of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (call) or sell to (put) the seller (writer) of the option the security or currency underlying (in this case, the Underlying Stock) the option at a specified exercise price.

An option is said to be “European Style” when it can be exercised only at expiration whereas an “American Style” option can be exercised at any time prior to expiration. The Fund may use either European or American style options.

The Fund’s cash balance may be invested in the following instruments: (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; (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 as collateral for the Fund’s swap agreements; (5) repurchase transactions, which are transactions under which the purchaser (i.e., the Fund) acquires securities and the seller agrees, at the time of the sale, to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed-upon time and price, thereby determining the yield during the purchaser’s holding period, and/or; (6) US equities listed on a national security exchange, sovereign fixed income securities with a credit rating at least equal to the United States Federal Government, or corporate debt securities, such as commercial paper and other short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by businesses that are rated investment grade for the purposes of entering into swap agreements with the Fund’s swap counterparties; (7) and in the securities of one or more ETFs designed to provide exposure to short-term investments, including the GraniteShares Short Term Box ETF (“LBOX”), which is advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser. LBOX is an actively managed ETF that seeks to generate a short-term, fixed-income-like return through a market-neutral strategy involving simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions (known as “box spreads”) on exchange-listed reference assets, and/or; (8) reverse repurchase agreements, which are agreements under which the Fund sells portfolio securities to a counterparty, such as a bank or broker-dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price and time.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have 2 times the daily performance of the Underlying Stock.

Due to the Fund’s investment exposure to the Underlying Stock, the Fund’s investment exposure is concentrated in the software and information technology industry.

Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day’s return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from 200% of the return of the Underlying Stock over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the Underlying Stock’s performance is flat over time, and as a result of daily rebalancing, the Underlying Stock volatility and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the Underlying Stock’s performance increases over a period longer than a single day.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND

As with all ETFs, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund’s NAV and performance.

Underlying Stock Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to the risks of the software and information technology sector. The Underlying Stock is subject to many risks that can negatively impact its revenue and viability including, but are not limited to price volatility risk, management risk, inflation risk, global economic risk, growth risk, supply and demand risk, operations risk, regulatory risk, environmental risk, terrorism risk and the risk of natural disasters. The Underlying Stock performance may be affected by global markets and demand for Apple’s products and services, its ability to develop new products and services, inventory levels, supply chain issues, the performance of third-party software developers, system and network failures, privacy and cybersecurity breaches and changes in international and government regulations. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies in the information technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. The Fund’s daily returns may be affected by many factors but will depend on the performance and volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk: The Fund aims to replicate leveraged daily returns of the Underlying Stock and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Underlying Stock’s performance, before fees and expenses. Compounding affects all investments but has a more significant impact on funds that aim to track indices that replicate leveraged daily returns. For a Fund aiming to replicate 2 times the daily performance of an Underlying Stock, if adverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock reduces the amount of a shareholder’s investment, any further adverse daily performance will lead to a smaller dollar loss because the shareholder’s investment had already been reduced by the prior adverse performance. Equally, however, if the favorable daily performance of the Underlying Stock increases the amount of a shareholder’s investment, the dollar amount lost due to future adverse performance will increase because the shareholder’s investment has increased.

The effect of compounding becomes pronounced as the Underlying Stock volatility and the holding period increase. The impact of compounding will impact each shareholder differently depending on the period of time an investment in the Fund is held and the volatility of the Underlying Stock during the shareholder’s holding period of an investment in the Fund.

The chart below provides examples of how Underlying Stock volatility could affect the Fund’s performance. Fund performance for periods greater than one single day can be estimated given any set of assumptions for the following factors: a) Underlying Stock volatility; b) Underlying Stock’s performance; c) period of time; d) financing rates associated with leveraged exposure; e) other Fund expenses; and f) the Underlying Stock’s dividends. The chart below illustrates the impact of two principal factors – Underlying Stock volatility and performance – on Fund performance. The chart shows estimated Fund returns for a number of combinations of Underlying Stock volatility and performance over a one-year period. Performance shown in the chart assumes that (i) there were no Fund expenses; and (ii) borrowing rates (needed to obtain a leveraged long exposure) of 0%. If Fund expenses and/or actual borrowing/lending rates were reflected, the estimated returns would be lower than those shown. Particularly during periods of higher Underlying Stock volatility, compounding will cause results for periods longer than a trading day to vary from the performance of the Underlying Stock.

As shown in the chart below, the Fund would be expected to lose 6.0% if the Underlying Stock provided no return over a one-year period during which the Underlying Stock experienced annualized volatility of 25%. At higher ranges of volatility, there is a chance of a significant loss of value in the Fund, even if the Underlying Stock return is flat.

For instance, if the Underlying Stock annualized volatility is 100%, the Fund would be expected to lose 63.3% of its value, even if the cumulative Underlying Stock return for the year was 0%. Areas shaded red (or dark gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return less than 200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock and those shaded green (or light gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return more than 200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock. The Fund’s actual returns may be significantly better or worse than the returns shown below as a result of any of the factors discussed above or in “Tracking Error Risk” below.

The Underlying Stock’s annualized historical volatility rate for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 28.48%. During the five-year period observed the Underlying Stock’s highest volatility rate over a 12-month period was 36.48% and volatility for a shorter period of time may have been substantially higher. The Underlying Stock’s annualized performance for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 16.33%. Historical volatility and performance are not indications of what the Underlying Stock volatility and performance will be in the future. The volatility of instruments that reflect the value of the Underlying Stock, such as swaps, may differ from the volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Correlation Risk: A number of factors may affect the Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective, and the percentage change of the Fund’s NAV each day may differ, perhaps significantly in amount, and possibly even direction, from 200% of the percentage change of Underlying Stock on such day.

In order to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, the Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep exposure consistent with its investment objective. Being materially under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock may prevent the Fund from achieving a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock and may expose the Fund to greater leverage risk. Market disruptions or closure, regulatory restrictions, market volatility, illiquidity in the markets for the financial instruments in which the Fund invests, and other factors will adversely affect the Fund’s ability to adjust exposure to requisite levels. The target amount of portfolio exposure is impacted dynamically by Underlying Stock’s movements, including intraday movements. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Fund will have perfect 200% exposure during the day or at the end of each day and the likelihood of being materially under- or overexposed is higher on days when Underlying Stock is volatile, particularly when Underlying Stock is volatile at or near the close of the trading day.

A number of other factors may also adversely affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, financing costs associated with the use of derivatives, income items, valuation methodology, accounting standards and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund may take or refrain from taking positions in order to improve tax efficiency, comply with regulatory restrictions, or for other reasons, each of which may negatively affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock. The Fund may also be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock. Additionally, the Fund’s underlying investments and/or reference assets may trade on markets that may not be open on the same day as the Fund, which may cause a difference between the changes in the daily performance of the Fund and changes in the performance of Underlying Stock. Any of these factors could decrease correlation between the performance of the Fund and Underlying Stock and may hinder the Fund’s ability to meet its daily investment objective on or around that day.

Leverage Risk: The Fund obtains investment exposure in excess of its net assets by utilizing leverage and may lose more money in market conditions that are adverse to its investment objective than a fund that does not utilize leverage. An investment in the Fund is exposed to the risk that a decline in the daily performance of the Underlying Stock will be magnified. This means that an investment in the Fund will be reduced by an amount equal to 2% for every 1% daily decline in the Underlying Stock, not including the costs of financing leverage and other operating expenses, which would further reduce its value. The Fund could theoretically lose an amount greater than its net assets in the event the Underlying Stock declines more than 50%. Leverage will also have the effect of magnifying any differences in the Fund performance’s correlation with the Underlying Stock.

The Fund may suspend the issuance of Creation Units only for a limited time and only due to extraordinary circumstances, such as when the markets on which the Fund’s portfolio holdings are traded are closed for a limited period of time. If the Fund is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to the Underlying Stock due to the limited availability of necessary investments or financial instruments, the Fund may, among other things, fail to meet its investment objective or incur increased transaction costs. If creations are suspended, or the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units is otherwise adversely affected, the Fund’s shares could trade at a significant premium or discount to their net asset value, or the bid-ask spread of the Fund’s shares could widen significantly, as the arbitrage mechanism that typically keeps secondary market prices in line with the Fund’s NAV would be impaired. In the case of a period during which creations are suspended, the Fund could experience significant redemptions, which may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices and incur increased transaction and other costs and make greater taxable distributions to shareholders of the Fund.

Computer Technology Company Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to the risks of the software and information technology sector. The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation, and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from competitors with lower production costs. In addition, many information technology companies have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. The prices of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the overall market. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies in the information technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel.

Counterparty Risk: A counterparty (the other party to a transaction or an agreement or the party with whom the Fund executes transactions) to a transaction (including repurchase transaction) with the Fund may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal, interest or settlement payments, or otherwise honor its obligations.

Derivatives Risk: The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) the risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships. Trading derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities.

The Fund will be subject to regulatory constraints relating to the level of value at risk that the Fund may incur through its derivative portfolio. To the extent the Fund exceeds these regulatory thresholds over an extended period, the Fund may determine that it is necessary to make adjustments to the Fund’s investment strategy.

Exchange Traded Fund Structure Risk: The Fund is structured as an exchange-traded fund and as a result is subject to special risks, including:

Fixed Income Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

Management Risk: The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular security or derivative in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

Market and Geopolitical Risk: The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Fund’s portfolio. It is not known how long any future impacts of other significant events described above will or would last, but there could be a prolonged period of global economic slowdown, which may impact your Fund investment. Therefore, the Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

Non-Diversified Risk: The Fund’s portfolio focuses on the Underlying Stock and will be subject to potential for volatility than a diversified fund.

Swap Risk: Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses.

Options Contracts Risk: The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund, in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests is substantially influenced by the value of the Underlying Stock. The Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Fund may expire worthless. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such a date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate at the underlying instrument. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in values of options contracts and the underlying instrument, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by the Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. Furthermore, when the Fund seeks to trade out of positions, especially near expiration, there is an added risk that the Fund may be required to allocate resources unexpectedly to fulfill these obligations. This potential exposure to physical settlement can significantly impact the Fund’s liquidity and market exposure, particularly in volatile market conditions. If the Fund sells non-cash settled options contracts, it would be obligated to receive shares of the Underlying Stock when the option is exercised. Consequently, there is a risk that the Fund may have to physically acquire the Underlying Stock shares at the strike price, which could result in the Fund holding the Underlying Stock, and an asset that has declined in value. The level of exposure obtained through option contracts should at most be equal to the Fund’s Daily Leverage Factor times the Fund’s net asset value.

Rebalancing Risk: If for any reason the Fund is unable to rebalance all or a portion of its portfolio, or if all or a portion of the portfolio is rebalanced incorrectly, the Fund’s investment exposure may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. In these instances, the Fund may have investment exposure to the Underlying Stock that is significantly greater or less than its stated multiple. As a result, the Fund may be more exposed to leverage risk than if it had been properly rebalanced and may not achieve its investment objective.

Trading Halt Risk: Although the Underlying Stock’s shares are listed for trading on an exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will be available at all times and the exchange may halt trading of such shares in certain circumstances. A halt in trading in the Underlying Stock’s shares is expected, in turn, to result in a halt in the trading in the Fund’s shares. Trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on the exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on an exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to exchange “circuit breaker” rules.” In the event of a trading halt for an extended period of time, the Fund may be unable to execute arrangements with swap counterparties that are necessary to implement the Fund’s investment strategy.

Tracking Error Risk: Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund’s performance from that of its investment objective which aims to replicate 2 times the daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock. The performance of the Fund may diverge from that of its investment objective for a number of reasons. Tracking error may occur because of transaction costs, the Fund’s holding of cash, differences in accrual of dividends, being under- or overexposed to the Underlying Stock or the need to meet new or existing regulatory requirements. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions such as market disruptions. The Fund may be required to deviate from its investment objective as a result of market restrictions or other legal reasons, including regulatory limits or other restrictions on securities that may be purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates.

Affiliated ETFs Risk: The Fund may invest in equity securities of other ETFs for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser. It is possible that a conflict of interest may arise. Additionally, to the extent the Fund invests in the securities of another affiliated ETF, the Fund will be subject to the investment risks of the ETF. Shareholders of the Fund are subject to duplicative expenses to the extent of the Fund’s investment in any affiliated ETF. Finally, the shares of the ETFs in which the Fund may invest will be listed on a national securities exchange and the Fund will purchase or sell these shares on the secondary market at its current market price, which may be more or less than its net asset value per share.

Box Spread ETF Risk. The Fund may invest in LBOX, an affiliated ETF advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser, that employs a market-neutral box spread strategy to generate short-term, fixed-income-like returns. Box spread positions involve simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions on the same reference asset and are structured to capture an implied financing rate. While box spreads are designed to be market-neutral and to generate a return approximating prevailing short-term interest rates, they are subject to execution risk, counterparty risk with respect to the options positions, and the risk that the implied financing rate embedded in the box spread diverges from prevailing market rates in periods of market stress. The Fund’s investments in LBOX are made pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, which imposes no percentage-of-assets limits on the Fund’s investment in an exchange-traded fund. Accordingly, the Fund could, at any time, hold a material allocation in LBOX. The Fund’s adviser faces a conflict of interest in allocating Fund assets to an affiliated fund such as LBOX; see “Affiliated ETFs Risk.”

Reverse Repurchase Agreement Risk: When the Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it sells portfolio securities to a counterparty and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price at a later date, effectively using those securities as collateral for a short-term loan. There is no guarantee that the return on any securities purchased with such proceeds will exceed the cost of the borrowing. The Fund also bears the risk that the counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement fails to perform its obligations, and the Fund may lose the use of the securities pledged for the duration of the agreement. The Fund’s obligations under reverse repurchase agreements must be covered by liquid assets. See also “Counterparty Risk” and “Leverage Risk” above.

Investing in U.S. Equities Risk: Investing in U.S. issuers subjects the Fund to legal, regulatory, political, currency, security, and economic risks that are specific to the U.S. Certain changes in the U.S., such as a weakening of the U.S. economy or a decline in its financial markets, may have an adverse effect on U.S. issuers.

US Treasury Risk: U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. Securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Tax Risk: In order to qualify for the favorable tax treatment generally available to regulated investment companies, the Fund must satisfy certain diversification and other requirements. In particular, the Fund generally may not acquire a security if, as a result of the acquisition, more than 50% of the value of the Fund’s assets would be invested in (a) issuers in which the Fund has, in each case, invested more than 5% of the Fund’s assets and (b) issuers more than 10% of whose outstanding voting securities are owned by the Fund. The application of these requirements to certain investments (including swaps) that may be entered into by the Fund is unclear. In addition, the application of these requirements to the Fund’s investment objective is not clear, particularly because the Fund’s investment objective focuses on the performance of the stock of a single issuer. If the Fund were to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation, and distributions to its shareholders would not be deductible by the Fund in computing its taxable income.

The following performance information indicates some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the Fund’s performance from year to year. The table illustrates how the Fund’s average annual returns for the 1-year and since inception periods compare with those of a broad measure of market performance. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future. Updated performance information is also available on the Fund’s website at www.graniteshares.com or by calling the Fund toll free at 844-476-8747.

During the periods shown in the bar chart above, the Fund’s highest quarterly return was 48.96% (quarter ended September 30, 2025) and the Fund’s lowest quarterly return was -24.25% (quarter ended March 31, 2025). The calendar year-to-date total return of the Fund as of September 30, 2026 was 35.64%.

The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of -1 time (-100%) the daily percentage change of the common stock of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL).

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund (“Shares”). The fees are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Investors may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in mutual funds and other exchange-traded funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell 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. The figures shown would be the same whether or not you sold your Shares at the end of each period.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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. The Fund does not have any portfolio turnover because it has not yet been launched.

The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that attempts to replicate the inverse (-100%) daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock by entering into financial instruments such as swaps and options on the Underlying Stock. At the end of each trading day, the notional exposure against the Underlying Stock obtained through the combination of these instruments will be approximately -100% of the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund aims to generate the inverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock for a single day. A “single day” is defined as being calculated “from the close of regular trading on one trading day to the close on the next trading day.”

The Fund will aim to primarily obtain its notional exposure against the Underlying Stock through swap agreements. In case the Fund faces restriction in increasing its swap notional exposure, it may use option contracts on the Underlying Stock.

Swaps:

The Fund may enter into one or more swap agreements with major financial institutions for a specified period ranging from a day to more than one year whereby the Fund and the financial institution will agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on the Underlying Stock. The gross return to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties is calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” e.g., the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount representing the Underlying Stock.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have the inverse performance of the Underlying Stock.

The Fund is expected to post between 25% and 50% of its assets as collateral under the swap agreements.

Options:

Depending on market conditions, market liquidity and operational constraints, the Fund may either buy deep in-the-money put option contracts, or simultaneously buy an at-the-money put option contract and sell an at-the-money call option contract (a strategy generally referred to as synthetic forward). All option contracts bought and sold will be against the Underlying Stock. The Fund will pay the premium for each put option contract bought and receive the premium for each call option sold. The Fund’s participation in potential changes in the price of the Underlying Stock is based on the price of the Underlying Stock at the time the Fund buys the put and sells the call option contracts, the strike price of the call (put) option contract and the Underlying Stock price at the time of the contract’s expiration. The maturity of the option contract bought and sold may vary from 1-week to 1-month.

As part of the Fund’s strategy, the Fund may buy a combination of standardized exchange-traded and FLexible EXchange® (“FLEX”) call and put options contracts that are based on the value of the price returns of the Underlying Stock. The Fund will only buy and sell options contracts that are listed for trading on regulated U.S. exchanges. Traditional exchange-traded options contracts have standardized terms, such as the type (call or put), the reference asset, the strike price and expiration date. Exchange-listed options contracts are guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). FLEX Options are a type of exchange-listed options contract with uniquely customizable terms that allow investors to customize key terms like type, strike price and expiration date that are standardized in a typical options contract. FLEX Options are also guaranteed for settlement by the OCC.

In general, an option is a contract that gives the purchaser (holder) of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (call) or sell to (put) the seller (writer) of the option the security or currency underlying (in this case, the Underlying Stock) the option at a specified exercise price.

An option is said to be “European Style” when it can be exercised only at expiration whereas an “American Style” option can be exercised at any time prior to expiration. The Fund may use either European or American style options.

The Fund’s cash balance may be invested in the following instruments: (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; (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 as collateral for the Fund’s swap agreements; (5) repurchase transactions, which are transactions under which the purchaser (i.e., the Fund) acquires securities and the seller agrees, at the time of the sale, to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed-upon time and price, thereby determining the yield during the purchaser’s holding period, and/or; (6) US equities listed on a national security exchange, sovereign fixed income securities with a credit rating at least equal to the United States Federal Government, or corporate debt securities, such as commercial paper and other short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by businesses that are rated investment grade for the purposes of entering into swap agreements with the Fund’s swap counterparties; (7) and in the securities of one or more ETFs designed to provide exposure to short-term investments, including the GraniteShares Short Term Box ETF (“LBOX”), which is advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser. LBOX is an actively managed ETF that seeks to generate a short-term, fixed-income-like return through a market-neutral strategy involving simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions (known as “box spreads”) on exchange-listed reference assets, and/or; (8) reverse repurchase agreements, which are agreements under which the Fund sells portfolio securities to a counterparty, such as a bank or broker-dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price and time.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have the inverse performance of the Underlying Stock.

Due to the Fund’s investment exposure to the Underlying Stock, the Fund’s investment exposure is concentrated in the software and information technology industry.

Apple Inc. designs, manufactures and markets smartphones, personal computers, tablets, wearables and accessories and sells a range of related services. AAPL is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

In addition, information regarding AAPL may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents.

Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day’s return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from -100% of the return of the Underlying Stock over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the Underlying Stock’s performance is flat over time, and as a result of daily rebalancing, the Underlying Stock volatility and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the Underlying Stock’s performance decreases over a period longer than a single day.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND

As with all ETFs, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund’s NAV and performance.

Underlying Stock Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to the risks of the software and information technology sector. The Underlying Stock is subject to many risks that can negatively impact its revenue and viability including, but are not limited to price volatility risk, management risk, inflation risk, global economic risk, growth risk, supply and demand risk, operations risk, regulatory risk, environmental risk, terrorism risk and the risk of natural disasters. The Underlying Stock performance may be affected by global markets and demand for Apple’s products and services, its ability to develop new products and services, inventory levels, supply chain issues, the performance of third-party software developers, system and network failures, privacy and cybersecurity breaches and changes in international and government regulations. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies in the information technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. The Fund’s daily returns may be affected by many factors but will depend on the performance and volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk: The Fund aims to replicate the daily inverse returns of the Underlying Stock and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Underlying Stock’s performance, before fees and expenses. Compounding affects all investments but has a more significant impact on funds that aim to replicate inverse daily returns. For a Fund aiming to replicate the inverse performance of an Underlying Stock, if adverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock reduces the amount of a shareholder’s investment, any further adverse daily performance will lead to a smaller dollar loss because the shareholder’s investment had already been reduced by the prior adverse performance. Equally, however, if favorable daily performance of the Underlying Stock increases the amount of a shareholder’s investment, the dollar amount lost due to future adverse performance will increase because the shareholder’s investment has increased.

The effect of compounding becomes pronounced as the Underlying Stock volatility and the holding period increase. The impact of compounding will impact each shareholder differently depending on the period of time an investment in the Fund is held and the volatility of the Underlying Stock during shareholder’s holding period of an investment in the Fund.

The chart below provides examples of how Underlying Stock volatility could affect the Fund’s performance. Fund performance for periods greater than one single day can be estimated given any set of assumptions for the following factors: a) Underlying Stock volatility; b) Underlying Stock’s performance; c) period of time; d) financing rates associated with leveraged exposure; e) other Fund expenses; and f) the Underlying Stock’s dividends. The chart below illustrates the impact of two principal factors – Underlying Stock volatility and performance – on Fund performance. The chart shows estimated Fund returns for a number of combinations of Underlying Stock volatility and performance over a one-year period. Performance shown in the chart assumes that (i) there were no Fund expenses; and (ii) borrowing rates (needed to obtain a leveraged long exposure) of 0%. If Fund expenses and/or actual borrowing/lending rates were reflected, the estimated returns would be lower than those shown. Particularly during periods of higher Underlying Stock volatility, compounding will cause results for periods longer than a trading day to vary from the performance of the Underlying Stock.

As shown in the chart below, the Fund would be expected to lose 6.0% if the Underlying Stock provided no return over a one-year period during which the Underlying Stock experienced annualized volatility of 25%. At higher ranges of volatility, there is a chance of a significant loss of value in the Fund, even if the Underlying Stock return is flat.

For instance, if the Underlying Stock’s annualized volatility is 100%, the Inverse Fund would be expected to lose 63.5% of its value, even if the cumulative Underlying Stock’s return for the year was 0%. Areas shaded red (or dark gray) represent those scenarios where the Inverse Fund can be expected to return less than -100% of the performance of the Underlying Stock and those shaded green (or light gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return more than -100% of the performance of the Underlying Stock. The Inverse Fund’s actual returns may be significantly better or worse than the returns shown below as a result of any of the factors discussed above or in “Tracking Error Risk” below.

The Underlying Stock’s annualized historical volatility rate for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 28.48%. During the five-year period observed the Underlying Stock’s highest volatility rate over a 12-month period was 36.48% and volatility for a shorter period of time may have been substantially higher. The Underlying Stock’s annualized performance for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 16.33%. Historical volatility and performance are not indications of what the Underlying Stock volatility and performance will be in the future. The volatility of instruments that reflect the value of the Underlying Stock, such as swaps, may differ from the volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Correlation Risk: A number of factors may affect the Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective, and the percentage change of the Fund’s NAV each day may differ, perhaps significantly in amount, and possibly even direction, from -100% of the percentage change of Underlying Stock on such day.

In order to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, the Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep exposure consistent with its investment objective. Being materially under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock may prevent the Fund from achieving a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock and may expose the Fund to greater leverage risk. Market disruptions or closure, regulatory restrictions, market volatility, illiquidity in the markets for the financial instruments in which the Fund invests, and other factors will adversely affect the Fund’s ability to adjust exposure to requisite levels. The target amount of portfolio exposure is impacted dynamically by Underlying Stock’s movements, including intraday movements. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Fund will have perfect -100% exposure during the day or at the end of each day and the likelihood of being materially under- or overexposed is higher on days when Underlying Stock is volatile, particularly when Underlying Stock is volatile at or near the close of the trading day.

A number of other factors may also adversely affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, financing costs associated with the use of derivatives, income items, valuation methodology, accounting standards and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund may take or refrain from taking positions in order to improve tax efficiency, comply with regulatory restrictions, or for other reasons, each of which may negatively affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock. The Fund may also be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock. Additionally, the Fund’s underlying investments and/or reference assets may trade on markets that may not be open on the same day as the Fund, which may cause a difference between the changes in the daily performance of the Fund and changes in the performance of Underlying Stock. Any of these factors could decrease correlation between the performance of the Fund and Underlying Stock and may hinder the Fund’s ability to meet its daily investment objective on or around that day.

Short Sale Exposure Risk: The Fund will seek inverse or “short” exposure through financial instruments, which would cause the Fund to be exposed to certain risks associated with selling short. These risks include, under certain market conditions, an increase in the volatility and decrease in the liquidity of the instruments underlying the short position, which may lower the Fund’s return, result in a loss, have the effect of limiting the Fund’s ability to obtain inverse exposure through financial instruments, or require the Fund to seek inverse exposure through alternative investment strategies that may be less desirable or more costly to implement. To the extent that, at any particular point in time, the instruments underlying the short position may be thinly traded or have a limited market, including due to regulatory action, the Fund may be unable to meet its investment objective due to a lack of available securities or counterparties. During such periods, the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units may be adversely affected. Obtaining inverse exposure through these instruments may be considered an aggressive investment technique. Any income, dividends or payments by any assets underlying the Fund’s short positions, if any, would negatively impact the Fund. The Fund could theoretically lose an amount greater than its net assets in the event the Underlying Stock increases more than 100%.

The Fund may suspend the issuance of Creation Units only for a limited time and only due to extraordinary circumstances, such as when the markets on which the Fund’s portfolio holdings are traded are closed for a limited period of time. If the Fund is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to the Underlying Stock due to the limited availability of necessary investments or financial instruments, the Fund may, among other things, fail to meet its investment objective or incur increased transaction costs. If creations are suspended, or the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units is otherwise adversely affected, the Fund’s shares could trade at a significant premium or discount to their net asset value, or the bid-ask spread of the Fund’s shares could widen significantly, as the arbitrage mechanism that typically keeps secondary market prices in line with the Fund’s NAV would be impaired. In the case of a period during which creations are suspended, the Fund could experience significant redemptions, which may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices and incur increased transaction and other costs and make greater taxable distributions to shareholders of the Fund.

Counterparty Risk: A counterparty (the other party to a transaction or an agreement or the party with whom the Fund executes transactions) to a transaction (including repurchase transaction) with the Fund may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal, interest or settlement payments, or otherwise honor its obligations.

Derivatives Risk: The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) the risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships. Trading derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities.

Exchange Traded Fund Structure Risk: The Fund is structured as an exchange-traded fund and as a result is subject to special risks, including:

The Fund will be subject to regulatory constraints relating to level of value at risk that the Fund may incur through its derivative portfolio. To the extent the Fund exceeds these regulatory thresholds over an extended period, the Fund may determine that it is necessary to make adjustments to the Fund’s investment strategy, including the desired daily inverse performance for the Fund.

Fixed Income Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

Management Risk: The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular security or derivative in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

Market and Geopolitical Risk: The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Fund’s portfolio. It is not known how long any future impacts of other significant events described above will or would last, but there could be a prolonged period of global economic slowdown, which may impact your Fund investment. Therefore, the Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

Non-Diversified Risk: The Fund’s portfolio focuses on the Underlying Stock and will be subject to potential for volatility than a diversified fund.

Swap Risk: Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses.

Options Contracts Risk: The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund, in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests is substantially influenced by the value of the Underlying Stock. The Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Fund may expire worthless. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such a date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate at the underlying instrument. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in values of options contracts and the underlying instrument, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by the Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. Furthermore, when the Fund seeks to trade out of positions, especially near expiration, there is an added risk that the Fund may be required to allocate resources unexpectedly to fulfill these obligations. This potential exposure to physical settlement can significantly impact the Fund’s liquidity and market exposure, particularly in volatile market conditions. If the Fund sells non-cash settled options contracts, it would be obligated to receive shares of the Underlying Stock when the option is exercised. Consequently, there is a risk that the Fund may have to physically acquire the Underlying Stock shares at the strike price, which could result in the Fund holding the Underlying Stock, and an asset that has declined in value. The level of exposure obtained through option contracts should at most be equal to the Fund’s Daily Leverage Factor times the Fund’s net asset value.

Rebalancing Risk: If for any reason the Fund is unable to rebalance all or a portion of its portfolio, or if all or a portion of the portfolio is rebalanced incorrectly, the Fund’s investment exposure may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. In these instances, the Fund may have investment exposure to the Underlying Stock that is significantly greater or less than its stated multiple. As a result, the Fund may be more exposed to leverage risk than if it had been properly rebalanced and may not achieve its investment objective.

Trading Halt Risk: Although the Underlying Stock’s shares are listed for trading on an exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will be available at all times and the exchange may halt trading of such shares in certain circumstances. A halt in trading in the Underlying Stock’s shares is expected, in turn, to result in a halt in the trading in the Fund’s shares. Trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on the exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on an exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to exchange “circuit breaker” rules.” In the event of a trading halt for an extended period of time, the Fund may be unable to execute arrangements with swap counterparties that are necessary to implement the Fund’s investment strategy.

Tracking Error Risk: Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund’s performance from that of its investment objective which aims to replicate the inverse daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock. The performance of the Fund may diverge from that of its investment objective for a number of reasons. Tracking error may occur because of transaction costs, the Fund’s holding of cash, differences in accrual of dividends, being under- or overexposed to the Underlying Stock or the need to meet new or existing regulatory requirements. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions such as market disruptions. The Fund may be required to deviate from its investment objectives as a result of market restrictions or other legal reasons, including regulatory limits or other restrictions on securities that may be purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates.

Affiliated ETFs Risk: The Fund may invest in equity securities of other ETFs for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser. It is possible that a conflict of interest may arise. Additionally, to the extent the Fund invests in the securities of another affiliated ETF, the Fund will be subject to the investment risks of the ETF. Shareholders of the Fund are subject to duplicative expenses to the extent of the Fund’s investment in any affiliated ETF. Finally, the shares of the ETFs in which the Fund may invest will be listed on a national securities exchange and the Fund will purchase or sell these shares on the secondary market at its current market price, which may be more or less than its net asset value per share.

Box Spread ETF Risk. The Fund may invest in LBOX, an affiliated ETF advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser, that employs a market-neutral box spread strategy to generate short-term, fixed-income-like returns. Box spread positions involve simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions on the same reference asset and are structured to capture an implied financing rate. While box spreads are designed to be market-neutral and to generate a return approximating prevailing short-term interest rates, they are subject to execution risk, counterparty risk with respect to the options positions, and the risk that the implied financing rate embedded in the box spread diverges from prevailing market rates in periods of market stress. The Fund’s investments in LBOX are made pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, which imposes no percentage-of-assets limits on the Fund’s investment in an exchange-traded fund. Accordingly, the Fund could, at any time, hold a material allocation in LBOX. The Fund’s adviser faces a conflict of interest in allocating Fund assets to an affiliated fund such as LBOX; see “Affiliated ETFs Risk.”

Reverse Repurchase Agreement Risk: When the Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it sells portfolio securities to a counterparty and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price at a later date, effectively using those securities as collateral for a short-term loan. There is no guarantee that the return on any securities purchased with such proceeds will exceed the cost of the borrowing. The Fund also bears the risk that the counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement fails to perform its obligations, and the Fund may lose the use of the securities pledged for the duration of the agreement. The Fund’s obligations under reverse repurchase agreements must be covered by liquid assets. See also “Counterparty Risk” above.

Investing in U.S. Equities Risk: Investing in U.S. issuers subjects the Fund to legal, regulatory, political, currency, security, and economic risks that are specific to the U.S. Certain changes in the U.S., such as a weakening of the U.S. economy or a decline in its financial markets, may have an adverse effect on U.S. issuers.

US Treasury Risk: U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. Securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Tax Risk: In order to qualify for the favorable tax treatment generally available to regulated investment companies, the Fund must satisfy certain diversification and other requirements. In particular, the Fund generally may not acquire a security if, as a result of the acquisition, more than 50% of the value of the Fund’s assets would be invested in (a) issuers in which the Fund has, in each case, invested more than 5% of the Fund’s assets and (b) issuers more than 10% of whose outstanding voting securities are owned by the Fund. The application of these requirements to certain investments (including swaps) that may be entered into by the Fund is unclear. In addition, the application of these requirements to the Fund’s investment objective is not clear, particularly because the Fund’s investment objective focuses on the performance of the stock of a single issuer. If the Fund were to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation, and distributions to its shareholders would not be deductible by the Fund in computing its taxable income.

Performance: Because the Fund has not yet launched, the performance section is omitted. In the future, performance information will be presented in this section of this Prospectus. Also, shareholder reports containing financial and performance information will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of -2 times (-200%) the daily percentage change of the common stock of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL).

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund (“Shares”). The fees are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Investors may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in mutual funds and other exchange-traded funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell 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. The figures shown would be the same whether or not you sold your Shares at the end of each period.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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. The Fund does not have any portfolio turnover because it has not yet launched.

The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that attempts to replicate 2x the inverse (-200%) daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock by entering into financial instruments such as swaps and options on the Underlying Stock. At the end of each trading day, the notional exposure against the Underlying Stock obtained through the combination of these instruments will be approximately -200% of the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund aims to generate the inverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock for a single day. A “single day” is defined as being calculated “from the close of regular trading on one trading day to the close on the next trading day.”

The Fund will aim to primarily obtain its notional exposure against the Underlying Stock through swap agreements. In case the Fund faces restriction in increasing its swap notional exposure, it may use option contracts on the Underlying Stock.

Swaps:

The Fund may enter into one or more swap agreements with major financial institutions for a specified period ranging from a day to more than one year whereby the Fund and the financial institution will agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on the Underlying Stock. The gross return to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties is calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” e.g., the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount representing the Underlying Stock.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have 2 times the inverse performance of the Underlying Stock.

The Fund is expected to post between 25% and 50% of its assets as collateral under the swap agreements.

Options:

Depending on market conditions, market liquidity and operational constraints, the Fund may either buy deep in-the-money put option contracts, or simultaneously buy an at-the-money put option contract and sell an at-the-money call option contract (a strategy generally referred to as synthetic forward). All option contracts bought and sold will be against the Underlying Stock. The Fund will pay the premium for each put option contract bought and receive the premium for each call option sold. The Fund’s participation in potential changes in the price of the Underlying Stock is based on the price of the Underlying Stock at the time the Fund buys the put and sells the call option contracts, the strike price of the call (put) option contract and the Underlying Stock price at the time of the contract’s expiration. The maturity of the option contract bought and sold may vary from 1-week to 1-month.

As part of the Fund’s strategy, the Fund may buy a combination of standardized exchange-traded and FLexible EXchange® (“FLEX”) call and put options contracts that are based on the value of the price returns of the Underlying Stock. The Fund will only buy and sell options contracts that are listed for trading on regulated U.S. exchanges. Traditional exchange-traded options contracts have standardized terms, such as the type (call or put), the reference asset, the strike price and expiration date. Exchange-listed options contracts are guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). FLEX Options are a type of exchange-listed options contract with uniquely customizable terms that allow investors to customize key terms like type, strike price and expiration date that are standardized in a typical options contract. FLEX Options are also guaranteed for settlement by the OCC.

In general, an option is a contract that gives the purchaser (holder) of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (call) or sell to (put) the seller (writer) of the option the security or currency underlying (in this case, the Underlying Stock) the option at a specified exercise price.

An option is said to be “European Style” when it can be exercised only at expiration whereas an “American Style” option can be exercised at any time prior to expiration. The Fund may use either European or American style options.

The Fund’s cash balance may be invested in the following instruments: (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; (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 as collateral for the Fund’s swap agreements; (5) repurchase transactions, which are transactions under which the purchaser (i.e., the Fund) acquires securities and the seller agrees, at the time of the sale, to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed-upon time and price, thereby determining the yield during the purchaser’s holding period, and/or; (6) US equities listed on a national security exchange, sovereign fixed income securities with a credit rating at least equal to the United States Federal Government, or corporate debt securities, such as commercial paper and other short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by businesses that are rated investment grade for the purposes of entering into swap agreements with the Fund’s swap counterparties; (7) and in the securities of one or more ETFs designed to provide exposure to short-term investments, including the GraniteShares Short Term Box ETF (“LBOX”), which is advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser. LBOX is an actively managed ETF that seeks to generate a short-term, fixed-income-like return through a market-neutral strategy involving simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions (known as “box spreads”) on exchange-listed reference assets, and/or; (8) reverse repurchase agreements, which are agreements under which the Fund sells portfolio securities to a counterparty, such as a bank or broker-dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price and time.

The Fund has adopted a policy to have at least 80% of its investment exposure to financial instruments with economic characteristics that should have 2 times the inverse performance of the Underlying Stock.

Due to the Fund’s investment exposure to the Underlying Stock, the Fund’s investment exposure is concentrated in the software and information technology industry.

Apple Inc. designs, manufactures and markets smartphones, personal computers, tablets, wearables and accessories and sells a range of related services. AAPL is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

In addition, information regarding AAPL may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents.

Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day’s return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from -200% of the return of the Underlying Stock over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the Underlying Stock’s performance is flat over time, and as a result of daily rebalancing, the Underlying Stock volatility and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the Underlying Stock’s performance decreases over a period longer than a single day.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND

As with all ETFs, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund’s NAV and performance.

Underlying Stock Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to the risks of the software and information technology sector. The Underlying Stock is subject to many risks that can negatively impact its revenue and viability including, but are not limited to price volatility risk, management risk, inflation risk, global economic risk, growth risk, supply and demand risk, operations risk, regulatory risk, environmental risk, terrorism risk and the risk of natural disasters. The Underlying Stock performance may be affected by global markets and demand for Apple’s products and services, its ability to develop new products and services, inventory levels, supply chain issues, the performance of third-party software developers, system and network failures, privacy and cybersecurity breaches and changes in international and government regulations. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies in the information technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. The Fund’s daily returns may be affected by many factors but will depend on the performance and volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk: The Fund aims to replicate the daily inverse returns of the Underlying Stock and the Fund’s performance for periods greater than a trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which is very likely to differ from the Underlying Stock’s performance, before fees and expenses. Compounding affects all investments but has a more significant impact on funds that aim to replicate inverse daily returns. For a Fund aiming to replicate the inverse performance of an Underlying Stock, if adverse daily performance of the Underlying Stock reduces the amount of a shareholder’s investment, any further adverse daily performance will lead to a smaller dollar loss because the shareholder’s investment had already been reduced by the prior adverse performance. Equally, however, if favorable daily performance of the Underlying Stock increases the amount of a shareholder’s investment, the dollar amount lost due to future adverse performance will increase because the shareholder’s investment has increased.

The effect of compounding becomes pronounced as the Underlying Stock volatility and the holding period increase. The impact of compounding will impact each shareholder differently depending on the period of time an investment in the Fund is held and the volatility of the Underlying Stock during shareholder’s holding period of an investment in the Fund.

The chart below provides examples of how Underlying Stock volatility could affect the Fund’s performance. Fund performance for periods greater than one single day can be estimated given any set of assumptions for the following factors: a) Underlying Stock volatility; b) Underlying Stock’s performance; c) period of time; d) financing rates associated with leveraged exposure; e) other Fund expenses; and f) the Underlying Stock’s dividends. The chart below illustrates the impact of two principal factors – Underlying Stock volatility and performance – on Fund performance. The chart shows estimated Fund returns for a number of combinations of Underlying Stock volatility and performance over a one-year period. Performance shown in the chart assumes that (i) there were no Fund expenses; and (ii) borrowing rates (needed to obtain a leveraged long exposure) of 0%. If Fund expenses and/or actual borrowing/lending rates were reflected, the estimated returns would be lower than those shown. Particularly during periods of higher Underlying Stock volatility, compounding will cause results for periods longer than a trading day to vary from the performance of the Underlying Stock.

As shown in the chart below, the Fund would be expected to lose 17.0% if the Underlying Stock provided no return over a one-year period during which the Underlying Stock experienced annualized volatility of 25%. At higher ranges of volatility, there is a chance of a significant loss of value in the Fund, even if the Underlying Stock return is flat.

For instance, if the Underlying Stock’s annualized volatility is 100%, the Inverse Fund would be expected to lose 95.3% of its value, even if the cumulative Underlying Stock’s return for the year was 0%. Areas shaded red (or dark gray) represent those scenarios where the Inverse Fund can be expected to return less than -200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock and those shaded green (or light gray) represent those scenarios where the Fund can be expected to return more than -200% of the performance of the Underlying Stock. The Inverse Fund’s actual returns may be significantly better or worse than the returns shown below as a result of any of the factors discussed above or in “Tracking Error Risk” below.

The Underlying Stock’s annualized historical volatility rate for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 28.48%. During the five-year period observed the Underlying Stock’s highest volatility rate over a 12-month period was 36.48% and volatility for a shorter period of time may have been substantially higher. The Underlying Stock’s annualized performance for the five-year period ended August 31, 2026, was 16.33%. Historical volatility and performance are not indications of what the Underlying Stock volatility and performance will be in the future. The volatility of instruments that reflect the value of the Underlying Stock, such as swaps, may differ from the volatility of the Underlying Stock.

Correlation Risk: A number of factors may affect the Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective, and the percentage change of the Fund’s NAV each day may differ, perhaps significantly in amount, and possibly even direction, from -200% of the percentage change of Underlying Stock on such day.

In order to achieve a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock, the Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep exposure consistent with its investment objective. Being materially under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock may prevent the Fund from achieving a high degree of correlation with the Underlying Stock and may expose the Fund to greater leverage risk. Market disruptions or closure, regulatory restrictions, market volatility, illiquidity in the markets for the financial instruments in which the Fund invests, and other factors will adversely affect the Fund’s ability to adjust exposure to requisite levels. The target amount of portfolio exposure is impacted dynamically by Underlying Stock’s movements, including intraday movements. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Fund will have perfect -200% exposure during the day or at the end of each day and the likelihood of being materially under- or overexposed is higher on days when Underlying Stock is volatile, particularly when Underlying Stock is volatile at or near the close of the trading day.

A number of other factors may also adversely affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, financing costs associated with the use of derivatives, income items, valuation methodology, accounting standards and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund may take or refrain from taking positions in order to improve tax efficiency, comply with regulatory restrictions, or for other reasons, each of which may negatively affect the Fund’s correlation with the Underlying Stock. The Fund may also be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being under- or overexposed to Underlying Stock. Additionally, the Fund’s underlying investments and/or reference assets may trade on markets that may not be open on the same day as the Fund, which may cause a difference between the changes in the daily performance of the Fund and changes in the performance of Underlying Stock. Any of these factors could decrease correlation between the performance of the Fund and Underlying Stock and may hinder the Fund’s ability to meet its daily investment objective on or around that day.

Short Sale Exposure Risk: The Fund will seek inverse or “short” exposure through financial instruments, which would cause the Fund to be exposed to certain risks associated with selling short. These risks include, under certain market conditions, an increase in the volatility and decrease in the liquidity of the instruments underlying the short position, which may lower the Fund’s return, result in a loss, have the effect of limiting the Fund’s ability to obtain inverse exposure through financial instruments, or require the Fund to seek inverse exposure through alternative investment strategies that may be less desirable or more costly to implement. To the extent that, at any particular point in time, the instruments underlying the short position may be thinly traded or have a limited market, including due to regulatory action, the Fund may be unable to meet its investment objective due to a lack of available securities or counterparties. During such periods, the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units may be adversely affected. Obtaining inverse exposure through these instruments may be considered an aggressive investment technique. Any income, dividends or payments by any assets underlying the Fund’s short positions, if any, would negatively impact the Fund. The Fund could theoretically lose an amount greater than its net assets in the event the Underlying Stock increases more than 50%.

The Fund may suspend the issuance of Creation Units only for a limited time and only due to extraordinary circumstances, such as when the markets on which the Fund’s portfolio holdings are traded are closed for a limited period of time. If the Fund is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to the Underlying Stock due to the limited availability of necessary investments or financial instruments, the Fund may, among other things, fail to meet its investment objective or incur increased transaction costs. If creations are suspended, or the Fund’s ability to issue additional Creation Units is otherwise adversely affected, the Fund’s shares could trade at a significant premium or discount to their net asset value, or the bid-ask spread of the Fund’s shares could widen significantly, as the arbitrage mechanism that typically keeps secondary market prices in line with the Fund’s NAV would be impaired. In the case of a period during which creations are suspended, the Fund could experience significant redemptions, which may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices and incur increased transaction and other costs and make greater taxable distributions to shareholders of the Fund.

Computer Technology Company Risk: The performance of the Underlying Stock, and consequently the Fund’s performance, is subject to the risks of the software and information technology sector. The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation, and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from competitors with lower production costs. In addition, many information technology companies have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. The prices of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the overall market. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability. Additionally, companies in the information technology sector may face dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel.

Counterparty Risk: A counterparty (the other party to a transaction or an agreement or the party with whom the Fund executes transactions) to a transaction (including repurchase transaction) with the Fund may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal, interest or settlement payments, or otherwise honor its obligations.

Derivatives Risk: The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) the risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships. Trading derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities.

Exchange Traded Fund Structure Risk: The Fund is structured as an exchange-traded fund and as a result is subject to special risks, including:

The Fund will be subject to regulatory constraints relating to level of value at risk that the Fund may incur through its derivative portfolio. To the extent the Fund exceeds these regulatory thresholds over an extended period, the Fund may determine that it is necessary to make adjustments to the Fund’s investment strategy, including the desired daily inverse performance for the Fund.

Fixed Income Securities Risk: When the Fund invests in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

Management Risk: The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular security or derivative in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

Market and Geopolitical Risk: The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Fund’s portfolio. It is not known how long any future impacts of other significant events described above will or would last, but there could be a prolonged period of global economic slowdown, which may impact your Fund investment. Therefore, the Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

Non-Diversified Risk: The Fund’s portfolio focuses on the Underlying Stock and will be subject to potential for volatility than a diversified fund.

Swap Risk: Swaps are subject to tracking risk because they may not be perfect substitutes for the instruments they are intended to hedge or replace. Over the counter swaps are subject to counterparty default. Leverage inherent in derivatives will tend to magnify the Fund’s losses.

Options Contracts Risk: The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events. For the Fund, in particular, the value of the options contracts in which it invests is substantially influenced by the value of the Underlying Stock. The Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Fund may expire worthless. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such a date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate at the underlying instrument. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in values of options contracts and the underlying instrument, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by the Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. Furthermore, when the Fund seeks to trade out of positions, especially near expiration, there is an added risk that the Fund may be required to allocate resources unexpectedly to fulfill these obligations. This potential exposure to physical settlement can significantly impact the Fund’s liquidity and market exposure, particularly in volatile market conditions. If the Fund sells non-cash settled options contracts, it would be obligated to receive shares of the Underlying Stock when the option is exercised. Consequently, there is a risk that the Fund may have to physically acquire the Underlying Stock shares at the strike price, which could result in the Fund holding the Underlying Stock, and an asset that has declined in value. The level of exposure obtained through option contracts should at most be equal to the Fund’s Daily Leverage Factor times the Fund’s net asset value.

Rebalancing Risk: If for any reason the Fund is unable to rebalance all or a portion of its portfolio, or if all or a portion of the portfolio is rebalanced incorrectly, the Fund’s investment exposure may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. In these instances, the Fund may have investment exposure to the Underlying Stock that is significantly greater or less than its stated multiple. As a result, the Fund may be more exposed to leverage risk than if it had been properly rebalanced and may not achieve its investment objective.

Trading Halt Risk: Although the Underlying Stock’s shares are listed for trading on an exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will be available at all times and the exchange may halt trading of such shares in certain circumstances. A halt in trading in the Underlying Stock’s shares is expected, in turn, to result in a halt in the trading in the Fund’s shares. Trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on the exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in the Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in Underlying Stock’s and/or Fund’s shares on an exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to exchange “circuit breaker” rules.” In the event of a trading halt for an extended period of time, the Fund may be unable to execute arrangements with swap counterparties that are necessary to implement the Fund’s investment strategy.

Tracking Error Risk: Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund’s performance from that of its investment objective which aims to replicate -2 times the daily percentage change of the Underlying Stock. The performance of the Fund may diverge from that of its investment objective for a number of reasons. Tracking error may occur because of transaction costs, the Fund’s holding of cash, differences in accrual of dividends, being under- or overexposed to the Underlying Stock or the need to meet new or existing regulatory requirements. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions such as market disruptions. The Fund may be required to deviate from its investment objectives as a result of market restrictions or other legal reasons, including regulatory limits or other restrictions on securities that may be purchased by the Adviser and its affiliates.

Affiliated ETFs Risk: The Fund may invest in equity securities of other ETFs for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser. It is possible that a conflict of interest may arise. Additionally, to the extent the Fund invests in the securities of another affiliated ETF, the Fund will be subject to the investment risks of the ETF. Shareholders of the Fund are subject to duplicative expenses to the extent of the Fund’s investment in any affiliated ETF. Finally, the shares of the ETFs in which the Fund may invest will be listed on a national securities exchange and the Fund will purchase or sell these shares on the secondary market at its current market price, which may be more or less than its net asset value per share.

Box Spread ETF Risk. The Fund may invest in LBOX, an affiliated ETF advised by GraniteShares Advisors LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser, that employs a market-neutral box spread strategy to generate short-term, fixed-income-like returns. Box spread positions involve simultaneous long and short synthetic options positions on the same reference asset and are structured to capture an implied financing rate. While box spreads are designed to be market-neutral and to generate a return approximating prevailing short-term interest rates, they are subject to execution risk, counterparty risk with respect to the options positions, and the risk that the implied financing rate embedded in the box spread diverges from prevailing market rates in periods of market stress. The Fund’s investments in LBOX are made pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, which imposes no percentage-of-assets limits on the Fund’s investment in an exchange-traded fund. Accordingly, the Fund could, at any time, hold a material allocation in LBOX. The Fund’s adviser faces a conflict of interest in allocating Fund assets to an affiliated fund such as LBOX; see “Affiliated ETFs Risk.”

Reverse Repurchase Agreement Risk: When the Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it sells portfolio securities to a counterparty and simultaneously agrees to repurchase those securities at a specified price at a later date, effectively using those securities as collateral for a short-term loan. There is no guarantee that the return on any securities purchased with such proceeds will exceed the cost of the borrowing. The Fund also bears the risk that the counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement fails to perform its obligations, and the Fund may lose the use of the securities pledged for the duration of the agreement. The Fund’s obligations under reverse repurchase agreements must be covered by liquid assets. See also “Counterparty Risk” above.

Investing in U.S. Equities Risk: Investing in U.S. issuers subjects the Fund to legal, regulatory, political, currency, security, and economic risks that are specific to the U.S. Certain changes in the U.S., such as a weakening of the U.S. economy or a decline in its financial markets, may have an adverse effect on U.S. issuers.

US Treasury Risk: U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. Securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Tax Risk: In order to qualify for the favorable tax treatment generally available to regulated investment companies, the Fund must satisfy certain diversification and other requirements. In particular, the Fund generally may not acquire a security if, as a result of the acquisition, more than 50% of the value of the Fund’s assets would be invested in (a) issuers in which the Fund has, in each case, invested more than 5% of the Fund’s assets and (b) issuers more than 10% of whose outstanding voting securities are owned by the Fund. The application of these requirements to certain investments (including swaps) that may be entered into by the Fund is unclear. In addition, the application of these requirements to the Fund’s investment objective is not clear, particularly because the Fund’s investment objective focuses on the performance of the stock of a single issuer. If the Fund were to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company, it would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation, and distributions to its shareholders would not be deductible by the Fund in computing its taxable income.

Performance: Because the Fund has not yet launched, the performance section is omitted. In the future, performance information will be presented in this section of this Prospectus. Also, shareholder reports containing financial and performance information will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 2 times (200%) the daily percentage change of the common stock of Airbnb Inc. (Nasdaq: ABNB).

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund (“Shares”). The fees are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Investors may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.
