Principal Investment
Strategies for the Funds
Unless
otherwise noted in a Fund's summary, under normal market conditions, each Fund
is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to invest at least 80% of
its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in companies that
the Adviser believes are materially involved in the Fund's applicable theme, as
described in the Fund's summary prospectus.
20% Basket for Liquidity and
Portfolio Management.
Under
normal market conditions each Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in
investments such as cash and cash equivalents, short-term instruments, other
equity securities, and other exchange-traded funds for liquidity, cash
management, temporary defensive positioning, and other portfolio management
purposes. Under normal market conditions, the Adviser does not intend to use
this flexibility to invest in companies whose businesses are materially
inconsistent with the applicable Fund's theme. In extraordinary or unfavorable
market conditions, the Fund may temporarily invest more than 20% of its net
assets in cash and cash equivalents and other short-term instruments as part of
its defensive positioning and liquidity management.

Each
Fund is classified as "non-diversified" under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. "Non-diversified" means that, relative to a diversified
investment company, the Fund may invest a greater portion of its assets in the
securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers, which may make the
Fund more susceptible to adverse developments affecting those issuers.
Non-diversification is distinct from concentration: concentration relates to the
Fund's exposure to a particular industry or group of industries, whereas
non-diversification relates to the number of issuers in which the Fund may
invest and the size of the Fund's positions in those issuers.
80% Investment Policy.
Each
Fund's 80% investment policy is a non-fundamental policy that may be changed by
the Board upon at least 60 days' prior written notice to shareholders. Each Fund
measures compliance with its 80% investment policy at the time of investment. If
a Fund's investments fall below the 80% threshold for reasons other than
purchases of non-qualifying investments (e.g., market fluctuations or changes in
an issuer's business), the Fund will make future investments in a manner
consistent with the policy and will seek to restore compliance as soon as
reasonably practicable, consistent with the best interests of shareholders.
Material Involvement
Determinations.
The
Adviser considers a company "materially involved" in a Fund's investment theme
if, at the time of investment, the company meets at least one of the following
criteria at the firm level: (1) at least 50% of the company's total revenues are
derived from the activities identified in the Fund's 80% investment policy
above; (2) at least 50% of the company's total profits are derived from such
activities; (3) at least 50% of the company's total assets are dedicated to such
activities; or (4) the company ranks among the top 10 companies engaged in such
activities by total revenues or net income, as determined using publicly
available financial data. The Adviser maintains internal records documenting,
for each portfolio company included in a Fund's 80% basket, the metric relied
upon, the supporting evidence from publicly available sources, and the date of
the most recent determination. For the Corgi Bay Area Based ETF and Corgi NYC
Based ETF, the Adviser determines material involvement based on geographic
criteria - specifically, whether a company is headquartered in or maintains
substantial operations in the applicable region -- rather than the quantitative
criteria described above. The Corgi Mag 7 ETF is not subject to material
involvement determinations, as its 80% investment policy is defined by reference
to seven specific named companies rather than theme-related activities. A
company will not qualify for any Fund's 80% basket based on expected future
activities that are not supported by current financial data.
Special Purpose Vehicles and
Private Investments.
With the
exception of the Corgi Mag 7 ETF, the Funds may invest, directly or indirectly,
in special purpose vehicles ("SPVs") to obtain exposure to private companies,
private investments, or other instruments consistent with the Fund's investment
theme, subject to applicable investment limitations. The Adviser will obtain
from each SPV manager, prior to investment, sufficient information regarding the
SPV's underlying holdings to confirm that the Fund's investments comply with the
limitations on investment company securities under Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940
Act (the "three-tier" structure). Each Fund's schedule of investments will
identify any SPV interests held, including the SPV's investment focus and fair
value. The Adviser will obtain and review information from SPV managers
regarding each SPV's underlying holdings on a periodic basis. SPV interests will
be valued at fair value in accordance with the Fund's valuation procedures as
adopted by the Board, using methodologies consistent with ASC 820 (Fair Value
Measurement), which may include reference to the SPV's most recent net asset
value, third-party valuations, or other inputs deemed appropriate by the Board's
Valuation Designee in accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. Investments
in SPVs may involve additional risks, including limited liquidity, valuation
uncertainty, and reliance on third-party managers or sponsors.
Illiquid Investments
(applicable to all Funds except the Corgi Mag 7 ETF).
Each
Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments, consistent
with the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and applicable SEC
rules. Illiquid investments may include, among other things, interests in SPVs,
securities subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, privately
negotiated transactions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value,
may be harder to sell at favorable prices or at all, and may increase the Fund's
exposure to valuation risk and liquidity risk.
Derivatives and Securities
Lending.
With the
exception of the Corgi Mag 7 ETF, the Funds do not expect to, and under normal
circumstances will not, invest in derivatives as part of their principal
investment strategies. The Corgi Mag 7 ETF may use derivatives (including swap
agreements and/or forward contracts) to obtain exposure to one or more
Magnificent Seven Companies and/or to manage cash flows or facilitate portfolio
transitions. None of the Funds will engage in securities lending as part of
their principal investment strategies.
Foreign Investments and
Depositary Receipts.
Each
Fund (except the Corgi Bay Area Based ETF, Corgi NYC Based ETF, Corgi Mag 7 ETF,
and Corgi U.S. War Machine ETF) may invest in U.S. and non-U.S. issuers,
including securities listed on foreign exchanges and depositary receipts such as
ADRs, consistent with its theme and other investment policies. The Corgi Bay
Area Based ETF, Corgi NYC Based ETF, Corgi Mag 7 ETF, and Corgi U.S. War Machine
ETF invest exclusively in equity securities of U.S. companies listed on U.S.
securities exchanges.
Principal Risks of Investing
in the Funds
The
principal risks of investing in the Funds are listed below. Each risk summarized
below is regarded as a "principal risk" of investing in at least one Fund,
regardless of the order in which it appears. Investing involves risk, including
the possible loss of principal. Any of the risks described can adversely affect
a Fund's NAV, market price, income, or total return. Some or all of these risks
may adversely affect a Fund's NAV per share price, yield, total return, and/or a
Fund's ability to achieve its objective.
Equity Market Risk (Applicable
to all Funds).
Common
stocks generally carry more risk than preferred stock or debt because common
shareholders are lower in the capital structure. Equity holdings may experience
significant price volatility such as sharp, unexpected declines or extended
downturns due to broad market conditions or developments specific to an issuer,
industry, or sector held by the Fund.
Non-Diversified Fund Risk
(Applicable to all Funds).
Each
Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest a larger percentage of its
assets in the securities of a smaller number of issuers or obtain exposure
through a smaller number of counterparties than a diversified fund. As a result,
a Fund may be more susceptible to a single economic, market, political, or
regulatory occurrence, or to a decline in the financial condition of an issuer
or counterparty, and such an event may have a disproportionately negative impact
on the Fund.
ETF Risks (Applicable to all
Funds).
Each
Fund is an exchange-traded fund ("ETF") and is subject to risks associated with
ETF structure and secondary-market trading. These include potential reliance on
a limited number of market makers and Authorized Participants, the possibility
that Shares trade at prices different from NAV, and the trading and
transaction-cost considerations described below.
●
Authorized Participants,
Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers Concentration Risk (Applicable to all
Funds).
Each
Fund relies on a limited number of financial institutions that are authorized to
purchase and redeem Creation Units directly with the Fund (each, an Authorized
Participant or "AP"). There may also be a limited number of market makers and
other liquidity providers active in Shares. If (i) APs exit the business, become
unable to process creation and/or redemption orders, and no other APs step in,
or (ii) market makers and/or other liquidity providers leave the market or
materially scale back their activity and no replacements emerge, Shares may
trade at a material discount to NAV and, in extreme cases, could face delisting.
●
Costs of Buying or Selling
Shares.
Investors who
trade Shares in the secondary market will pay brokerage commissions or other
charges set by their broker. Commissions are often fixed amounts and can be a
significant proportional cost for investors transacting in small sizes.
Secondary-market investors also bear the bid-ask spread. The spread varies over
time with trading volume and market liquidity; generally narrower when trading
volume and liquidity are higher and wider when they are lower. A relatively
small investor base, sizable asset flows into or out of a Fund, and/or periods
of elevated market volatility may widen spreads. Because commissions and spreads
add to trading costs, frequent trading of Shares can materially reduce returns
and may be inadvisable for investors who expect to make regular, small purchases
or sales.
●
Shares May Trade at Prices
Other Than NAV.
As with
all ETFs, Shares trade on an exchange at market prices that may differ from a
Fund's NAV. At times, Shares may trade at an intraday premium (above NAV) or
discount (below NAV) due to supply and demand for Shares or during volatile
markets. This risk can be heightened in periods of market stress, sharp market
declines, or when secondary-market trading activity in Shares is limited, in
which case premiums or discounts may be significant.
●
Trading.
Although
Shares are listed for trading on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the "Exchange") and
may trade on other U.S. exchanges, there is no assurance that Shares will trade
with active volume, or trade at all, on any exchange. In stressed market
conditions, the liquidity of Shares and the liquidity of a Fund's portfolio
holdings may deteriorate.
Brokerage Commissions and
Bid-Ask Spread Risk (Applicable to all Funds).
Investors who
buy or sell shares pay brokerage commissions and bear bid-ask spreads. These
costs may increase when markets are volatile or when the Shares trade in lower
volumes and can materially reduce returns for investors, especially for frequent
traders or smaller transactions.
New Adviser Risk (Applicable
to all Funds).
The
Adviser has limited experience managing a registered fund. The Adviser's
investment and operational processes may evolve, and the Adviser may not succeed
in implementing the strategy as intended or achieving the Fund's investment
objective. In addition, investors have limited ability to evaluate the Adviser's
registered-fund track record, and the Adviser's relative inexperience may limit
its effectiveness. The Fund's success may depend on the Adviser's ability to
build and maintain appropriate portfolio management, trading, compliance, and
operational infrastructure and to work effectively with key service providers;
there can be no assurance these efforts will be successful.
New Fund Risk (Applicable to
all Funds).
Each
Fund is newly organized and has limited operating history. As a new fund, a Fund
may not attract sufficient assets to achieve and maintain an economically viable
size, and it may be more likely to liquidate than a fund with a longer operating
history and larger asset base. Liquidation may occur at a time that is
disadvantageous to shareholders.
Liquidity and Valuation Risk
(Applicable to all Funds except the Corgi Mag 7 ETF).
Securities of
smaller issuers may trade less frequently or in smaller volumes. During periods
of market stress, liquidity can decline and prices can become more volatile,
which may increase the Fund's transaction costs and make portfolio management
more difficult. When market quotations are not readily available or are
considered unreliable, the Fund may have fair value securities, and such values
may differ materially from realized values.
Active Management Risk
(Applicable to all Funds).
Each
Fund is actively managed and does not seek to track the performance of an index.
The Adviser's judgments about security selection, portfolio construction, and
risk management may prove incorrect, and a Fund's investments may not perform as
expected. In addition, the Funds' thematic approach requires the Adviser to make
judgments about whether an issuer is meaningfully related to a Fund's theme, and
those judgments may change over time. A Fund may underperform other funds that
pursue similar investment strategies or the broader equity markets.
Concentration Risk (Applicable
to all Funds).
A Fund
will concentrate its investments in one or more industries or sectors consistent
with its investment theme. When a Fund concentrates, it may be more susceptible
to adverse economic, business, regulatory, technological, or other developments
affecting the companies in those industries or sectors, and it may experience
greater volatility than a fund that does not concentrate. Concentration can also
magnify the impact of supply chain disruptions, pricing pressures, and other
issuer- or industry-specific events on a Fund's performance.
Capitalization Risk
(Applicable to all Funds).
The
Funds may invest in companies of any market capitalization. Securities of
smaller or less seasoned companies may be more volatile, may have more limited
product lines, markets and financial resources, and may trade less frequently
than securities of larger companies. Conversely, securities of very large
companies may be subject to valuation risk, may be more susceptible to
regulatory or political scrutiny, and may underperform smaller companies or the
broader equity markets for extended periods.
Foreign Securities and
Depositary Receipts Risk (including ADRs) (applicable to all Funds except the
Corgi Bay Area Based ETF, Corgi NYC Based ETF, Corgi Mag 7 ETF, and Corgi U.S.
War Machine ETF).
Investments
in non-U.S. companies, including companies listed on foreign securities
exchanges and depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"),
may involve additional risks compared to investments in U.S. issuers. These
risks may include differences in accounting, auditing, and financial reporting
standards; less publicly available information; different regulatory regimes and
investor protections; higher transaction and custody costs; settlement and
market structure differences; and potential liquidity constraints. Non-U.S.
investments may be affected by political, social, and economic developments,
nationalization or expropriation, confiscatory taxation, and changes in laws or
regulations (including sanctions or capital controls) that may limit a Fund's
ability to buy or sell investments or repatriate proceeds. In addition, to the
extent a Fund's investments are denominated in, or have exposure to, foreign
currencies, changes in currency exchange rates may adversely affect the value of
a Fund's investments and the Fund's returns, and currency-related losses may
occur even if the underlying investment performs well in local-currency terms.
Depositary receipts may be less liquid than the underlying securities and may be
subject to fees, withholding taxes, or other costs and risks that may reduce
returns. In addition, where all or a portion of a Fund’s underlying securities
trade on a market that is closed when the market in which the Fund’s shares are
listed and trading is open, there may be changes between the last quote from the
closed foreign market and the value of such securities during the Fund’s
domestic trading day. This could lead to differences between the market price of
the Fund’s shares and the Fund’s net asset value.
Concentration and Single
Issuer Risk (applicable to the Corgi Mag 7 ETF).
The
Corgi Mag 7 ETF invests a significant portion of its assets in a small number of
issuers. The Fund may be particularly sensitive to negative developments
affecting a single issuer, including adverse business results, regulatory
actions (including antitrust or other scrutiny), reputational events,
cybersecurity incidents, or changes in competitive position. In addition, where
a Fund has significant exposure to a small number of mega capitalization
companies, those companies' share prices may be especially sensitive to changes
in expectations regarding growth and valuation. A decline in the value of one or
more of these issuers may have a disproportionate negative impact on the Fund's
performance and may increase volatility.
Geographic Classification and
Regional Concentration Risk (applicable to the Corgi Bay Area Based ETF and
Corgi NYC Based ETF).
These
Funds rely on the Adviser's classifications of issuers as being economically
tied to a particular region, which may depend on factors such as corporate
headquarters, operating footprint, revenue exposure, or other criteria. An
issuer's classification may change over time, which may lead to increased
portfolio turnover and may cause a Fund's holdings to differ from an investor's
expectations regarding exposure to a particular region. In addition, regional
concentration may heighten exposure to local economic conditions, higher or
changing operating costs, state or local regulatory or tax developments, and
region-specific events (such as natural disasters, infrastructure disruptions,
and changes in business formation, hiring, and real estate conditions) that
could negatively affect issuers held by these Funds.
Technology Change, Innovation,
and Competitive Dynamics Risk (applicable to the Corgi AI Cybersecurity ETF,
Corgi Bay Area Based ETF, Corgi Crypto Infrastructure ETF, Corgi Data &
Surveillance ETF, Corgi IP Licensing & Royalties ETF, Corgi Mag 7 ETF, Corgi
Quantum Computing ETF, Corgi Robots & Humanoids ETF, and Corgi Space &
Satellite Communications ETF).
Companies
operating in rapidly evolving technology and innovation industries may face
intense competition, rapid product or service obsolescence, frequent changes in
technology, standards, and customer preferences, and the need for ongoing
research and development. These companies may have business models that depend
on successful commercialization of new technologies, timely product launches,
and broad adoption, each of which can be uncertain and can require significant
capital. Customers may be slow to adopt or integrate new products or services,
or may not achieve expected returns on investment, which can reduce demand.
Competitive pressures, platform consolidation, and dependence on key personnel
and talent may adversely affect market share, pricing, margins, and growth
prospects for issuers held by these Funds. In addition, certain technologies
(including robotics and automation solutions) may present safety, reliability,
and liability risks and may be affected by changes in regulatory requirements or
government policy.
AI and Algorithmic Decision
Risk (applicable to the Corgi AI Cybersecurity ETF, Corgi Data &
Surveillance ETF, and Corgi Mag 7 ETF).
Certain
issuers may rely on AI models, automated systems, and algorithmic
decision-making to develop products, deliver services, or manage security
threats. The effectiveness of these tools may depend on the quality,
availability, and timeliness of data, and outcomes may be inaccurate, biased, or
otherwise flawed. In cybersecurity contexts, threat landscapes can evolve
quickly, and new attack methods may reduce the effectiveness of security
products or services. Market expectations regarding AI-driven growth and related
compute demand may change rapidly, which may contribute to valuation volatility
for issuers with AI-related exposure.
Aircraft Certification,
Program Execution, and Manufacturing Quality Risk (applicable to the Corgi
Aerospace & Commercial Aviation ETF, Corgi Drones & Urban Air Mobility
ETF, and Corgi Robots & Humanoids ETF).
Companies
tied to aircraft, engines, avionics, and related supply chains face risks that
products or major upgrades fail to meet performance, reliability, or
certification requirements, or experience delays in testing, regulatory
approvals, and production ramp. A single program issue can lead to costly
rework, warranty and penalty claims, customer delivery deferrals, and lost
market share, and can ripple through the supply chain. Capacity constraints,
single-source dependencies, labor constraints, or quality issues at suppliers
can disrupt build schedules and aftermarket support, reducing revenue and cash
flow.
Aviation Safety, Accident, and
Disruption Risk (applicable to the Corgi Aerospace & Commercial Aviation
ETF, and Corgi Drones & Urban Air Mobility ETF).
Aviation
accidents, safety incidents, or perceived safety concerns can trigger fleet
groundings, route suspensions, reduced demand, higher insurance and compliance
costs, litigation, and reputational damage across manufacturers, airlines,
lessors, and service providers. Weather events, air traffic control constraints,
cybersecurity incidents affecting flight operations, airport disruptions, and
other operational breakdowns can reduce capacity, increase delays and
cancellations, and pressure margins for air carriers and aviation service
companies.
Buy Now Pay Later, Fintech
Regulatory, and Funding Model Risk (applicable to the Corgi Buy Now Pay Later
ETF).
Buy now,
pay later and certain fintech models may be sensitive to consumer credit
performance, merchant economics, and regulatory developments affecting
underwriting, disclosures, fees, collections, data use, and bank partnership
arrangements. Access to funding (including warehouse facilities, securitization
markets, and bank financing) may tighten during periods of market stress or
higher interest rates, which may reduce growth and profitability.
Cybersecurity, Data Breach,
Privacy, and Trust Risk (applicable to the Corgi AI Cybersecurity ETF, Corgi
Crypto Infrastructure ETF, Corgi Data & Surveillance ETF, Corgi Mag 7 ETF,
Corgi Sports Betting & Gambling ETF, and Corgi U.S. War Machine ETF).
Many
issuers in these industries face heightened risks of cyberattacks, security
breaches, service disruptions, and misuse or unauthorized disclosure of data.
Such events may result in operational disruption, regulatory investigations,
litigation, remediation expenses, loss of customers, and reputational harm. In
addition, heightened public and regulatory scrutiny of privacy, surveillance,
and data-use practices (including civil liberties concerns) may restrict certain
business activities, increase compliance costs, and reduce demand for products
or services, adversely affecting issuers held by these Funds.
Government Customer,
Procurement, and Contracting Risk (applicable to the Corgi Data &
Surveillance ETF, Corgi Space & Satellite Communications ETF, and Corgi U.S.
War Machine ETF).
Certain
issuers may derive a significant portion of revenues from government customers
or government-related programs. Government budgets, policy priorities, and
procurement processes may change, and contracting can involve competitive
bidding, performance requirements, and other conditions that may affect
profitability and the timing of revenues. In addition, some issuers may have
concentration in a limited number of government contracts or programs, and the
loss, reduction, or non-renewal of a significant contract, or delays in program
funding, could materially affect financial results. For issuers providing
defense- or security-related products and services, demand and spending
priorities may also be affected by geopolitical developments and the timing and
magnitude of government spending.
Export Controls, Sanctions,
and Restricted Market Risk (applicable to the Corgi Data & Surveillance ETF,
Corgi IP Licensing & Royalties ETF, Corgi Lithography & Semiconductor
Photonics ETF, Corgi Mag 7 ETF, and Corgi U.S. War Machine ETF).
Certain
issuers may be subject to export controls, sanctions regimes, national security
restrictions, or other limitations on cross-border sales, technology transfer,
financing, and counterparties. Compliance with these requirements can increase
costs, constrain business opportunities, and limit the availability of
suppliers, customers, banking relationships, or payment channels. Changes in
sanctions or other restrictions, or allegations of non-compliance, can result in
penalties, reputational harm, and reduced investor or customer confidence. In
extreme cases, sanctions-related restrictions could result in the Fund being
unable to sell an affected investment, potentially resulting in a complete loss
of the Fund’s investment in that security.
Crypto Infrastructure and
Digital Asset Ecosystem Risk (applicable to the Corgi Crypto Infrastructure
ETF).
Companies
involved in crypto infrastructure and digital-asset-related services may be
affected by regulatory and legal uncertainty, including changes in laws, rules,
enforcement priorities, and licensing or registration requirements. The value
and adoption of digital assets, and the demand for products and services tied to
digital-asset markets, can be highly volatile and may be influenced by fraud,
market manipulation, illicit activity, cybersecurity incidents, and operational
failures at platforms or counterparties. Crypto infrastructure businesses may
also be sensitive to disruptions in banking access and payment rails and to
changes in blockchain networks, protocols, or forks, each of which can affect
network functionality, user adoption, and the revenues and valuations of
issuers. In addition, to the extent issuers are exposed to mining-related
activities, energy use and environmental regulation may affect operating costs
and demand for mining-related services. To the extent a Fund invests in
financial institutions or financial-services-related companies connected to the
crypto ecosystem, those issuers may be subject to risks affecting the financial
sector, including operational, compliance, and reputational events.
Energy, Commodity, and Input
Cost Volatility Risk (applicable to the Corgi Battery Energy Storage Systems
ETF, Corgi Coffee & Energy Drinks ETF, Corgi High Voltage Grid Equipment
ETF, Corgi Natural Gas Power & Turbines ETF, Corgi Ports, Rail & Freight
ETF, Corgi Shipping & Global Logistics ETF, Corgi Travel & Leisure ETF,
and Corgi U.S. War Machine ETF).
Many
issuers in these themes rely on commodities or inputs such as battery materials,
fuels, electricity, metals, agricultural commodities, packaging, or
transportation services. Prices for these inputs can be volatile and may be
affected by supply and demand imbalances, geopolitical events, trade policies,
environmental regulation, and disruptions to production or logistics. Increased
input costs may reduce margins, require pricing increases that dampen demand, or
lead to delayed or cancelled projects, adversely affecting issuers held by these
Funds. In addition, for issuers exposed to oil and gas markets, changes in
prices and margins may be volatile, and energy transition policies and
environmental regulation may affect demand, costs, and profitability.
Energy Infrastructure, Project
Development, and Regulatory Risk (applicable to the Corgi Battery Energy Storage
Systems ETF, Corgi High Voltage Grid Equipment ETF, and Corgi Natural Gas Power
& Turbines ETF).
Issuers
involved in energy storage, grid equipment, and power generation are often
exposed to project development and timing risks, including interconnection and
permitting processes, utility and customer capital spending cycles, and the
potential for delays in procurement and construction. Revenues and profitability
may depend on the economics of power markets and storage revenue models, and on
the availability and terms of project finance. Changes in interest rates and
financing conditions, cost inflation, and supply constraints (including
manufacturing capacity limits and long lead times) can adversely affect project
economics and issuer profitability. In addition, these industries are subject to
extensive regulation, including rate-case and cost-recovery frameworks,
permitting and environmental compliance requirements, and policy changes related
to decarbonization, energy transition, and reliability. Equipment failures,
warranty claims, service execution challenges, and product liability exposure
may also adversely affect issuers, and extreme weather, catastrophes, or other
grid disruptions can affect demand, operations, and asset values. Expectations
regarding growth in power-intensive computing loads (including data centers) may
not materialize or may shift geographically, which may affect demand assumptions
for certain generation and grid investments. Natural gas prices and fuel supply
conditions may also affect issuers with exposure to gas-fired generation and
related supply chains.
Key Personnel and Talent Risk
(applicable to the Corgi AI Cybersecurity ETF).
Companies in
these innovation-driven industries often depend on highly skilled personnel and
face intense competition to hire and retain qualified employees. The loss of key
personnel, difficulty recruiting or retaining talent, wage inflation, or
constraints in access to specialized labor may impair a company's ability to
innovate, maintain product quality, respond to evolving threats, or execute its
strategy, which may adversely affect revenues, profitability, and the value of
the company's securities.
Intellectual Property,
Licensing, and Litigation Risk
(applicable to the Corgi IP
Licensing & Royalties ETF).
Companies
that own, monetize, or enforce intellectual property ("IP") may be exposed to
risks that expected licensing revenues do not materialize or are not sustained.
Royalty streams may depend on a limited number of patents, licensees, products,
or end-markets and may be affected by product cycles, technology substitution,
workarounds, patent expiration, and competitive developments. IP rights may be
challenged, narrowed, invalidated, or found unenforceable, and adverse outcomes
in litigation, administrative proceedings, or negotiated settlements may reduce
expected cash flows and valuations. IP monetization strategies may involve
substantial legal costs, lengthy timelines, uncertain outcomes, and reputational
or regulatory scrutiny (including antitrust or competition-law considerations),
and counterparties may delay, dispute, or refuse payments.
Transportation, Logistics, and
Travel Industry Risk (applicable to the Corgi Aerospace & Commercial
Aviation ETF, Corgi Ports, Rail & Freight ETF, Corgi Shipping & Global
Logistics ETF, and Corgi Travel & Leisure ETF).
Companies in
transportation, logistics, and travel industries can be highly sensitive to
trade and economic cycles, global trade and demand, and changes in consumer or
business travel spending. Freight and capacity conditions (including ocean
freight and air cargo markets) can be volatile, and revenues may be affected by
fuel and energy prices, labor availability, and operational disruptions. These
industries may also be exposed to regulatory, safety, and environmental
requirements, including those related to emissions, fleet compliance, and
transportation safety. Accidents, equipment or infrastructure failures,
certification and manufacturing quality issues, maritime casualties, and public
health or safety events can disrupt operations and reduce demand. In addition,
geopolitical events, tariffs, and route disruptions can affect trade flows,
travel patterns, and shipping lanes, and seasonality may contribute to revenue
and earnings volatility for certain issuers.
Space and Satellite Industry
Risk (applicable to the Corgi Space & Satellite Communications ETF).
Companies
engaged in space and satellite communications may face risks related to launch,
deployment, and mission failure, including delays or losses stemming from
technical issues or accidents. The industry can be capital intensive, and many
business models depend on long development timelines and long payback periods.
In addition, issuers may be subject to spectrum, licensing, and other regulatory
requirements, and changes in regulatory policy or licensing outcomes could
adversely affect operations. The space environment presents unique risks,
including space debris and related collision hazards, which may impair satellite
operations or increase costs. Certain issuers may also have meaningful
dependence on government customers, policies, and budgets, and changes in
government priorities or spending could affect revenues and valuations.
Biotechnology, Health Care,
and Life Sciences Industry Risk (applicable to the Corgi Bay Area Based ETF and
Corgi Genomics & Precision Medicine ETF).
Companies in
genomics, precision medicine, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals are subject to
substantial clinical, regulatory, and approval risks, including the possibility
that products in development do not achieve desired outcomes or are not
approved. These industries can also be affected by reimbursement dynamics and
adoption rates, and by changes in health care policy and regulation. Issuers may
face significant research and development costs and may depend on intellectual
property protections; challenges to patents or other proprietary rights may
reduce expected revenues. Manufacturing and supply chain risks, including
quality-control issues, can adversely affect product availability and costs. In
addition, the use and interpretation of biological or health-related data may
raise data quality and ethical considerations that can affect adoption and
regulation.
Consumer Products, Brands, and
Lifestyle Risk (applicable to the Corgi Beauty, Skincare & Aesthetics ETF,
Corgi Lifestyle Brands ETF, Corgi Coffee & Energy Drinks ETF, and Corgi
Longevity Consumer ETF).
Many
consumer-facing companies are subject to risks relating to changes in consumer
tastes, trends, and brand relevance, fashion cycles, and competition, including
pressure on pricing and margins and higher promotional costs. Certain issuers
may be dependent on a limited number of brands, categories, or key products,
which can increase sensitivity to shifts in consumer preferences, product
performance, or competitive dynamics. Demand for discretionary or luxury
products and services may be sensitive to economic conditions, consumer
confidence, and seasonality. These companies may also face product safety,
regulatory, and recall risks and may be affected by health perception and
regulatory developments. Business results may be influenced by dependence on
particular distribution channels, retail platforms, and promotional activity,
and by risks associated with inventory management, sourcing, and supply chains
(including logistics and packaging). Certain brands may be exposed to
reputational and social controversy risk, and intellectual property,
counterfeiting, and licensing issues may adversely affect revenues. For
companies tied to agricultural inputs (such as coffee), climate and agricultural
production conditions can affect supply, quality, and pricing. For
longevity-oriented consumer companies, business results may depend on consumer
confidence in product claims and evidence, regulatory product classification
outcomes, and demographic and spending assumptions.
Financial Services, Consumer
Lending, and Payments Risk (applicable to the Corgi Buy Now Pay Later ETF, Corgi
Crypto Infrastructure ETF, Corgi Digital Banking & Fintech Infrastructure
ETF, and Corgi NYC Based ETF).
Financial
services and lending-related companies may be exposed to credit loss and
underwriting risk, including higher delinquencies and charge-offs, particularly
during economic downturns or periods of higher interest rates. These companies
may face intense competition and margin pressure and may depend on access to
funding and liquidity on favorable terms. Certain business models rely on
third-party relationships, including bank partnerships and other counterparties,
and disruptions or terminations of these relationships can adversely affect
operations. In addition, these industries are subject to extensive regulation
and consumer protection requirements, and changes in laws, regulations,
supervisory expectations, or enforcement priorities may increase costs, restrict
certain practices, or reduce demand.
Semiconductor, Capital
Equipment, and Capex Cyclicality Risk (applicable to the Corgi Lithography &
Semiconductor Photonics ETF, Corgi Mag 7 ETF, and Corgi Bay Area Based
ETF).
Semiconductor
and semiconductor equipment markets can be cyclical and are sensitive to
end-demand, inventory cycles, and customer capital spending. Order cancellations
or deferrals, pricing pressure, and rapid shifts in technology roadmaps may
adversely affect revenues and margins for issuers in photonics, lithography,
metrology, and related supply chains. These industries may also face customer
concentration, long lead times, and heightened sensitivity to export controls
and geopolitical developments.
Sports Betting and Gambling
Industry Risk (applicable to the Corgi Sports Betting & Gambling ETF).
The
sports betting and gambling industry is subject to evolving regulatory and
legalization frameworks, including licensing requirements, tax rates and fees,
advertising and promotional practices, and enforcement activity that may differ
materially across jurisdictions and may change over time. Issuers may face
significant customer acquisition costs and competitive pressure, which can
affect profitability, and many business models depend on reliable technology
infrastructure and uninterrupted service. Cybersecurity incidents or service
disruptions can impair operations, result in regulatory scrutiny, and harm
customer confidence. In addition, issuers may face responsible gaming,
litigation, and reputational risks, and demand for gaming and betting activities
may be sensitive to consumer discretionary spending and broader economic
conditions.
SPV and Private Investment
Risk (applicable to all Funds except the Corgi Mag 7 ETF).
Investments
in SPVs and private investments may involve additional risks, including reduced
transparency, limited liquidity, and heightened valuation risk. These
investments can be more volatile and may be harder to value or sell than
publicly traded securities, which can increase the impact of valuation judgments
on a Fund's NAV.
Derivatives and Counterparty
Risk (applicable to the Corgi Mag 7 ETF).
Derivatives
may expose a Fund to risks different from, and in some cases greater than, the
risks associated with investing directly in traditional securities. Derivatives
may be subject to liquidity and valuation risk and may perform differently than
expected. A Fund may also be exposed to counterparty risk, including the risk
that a counterparty fails to perform on its obligations or becomes insolvent,
which may cause a Fund to lose money and experience delays in recovering
collateral.
Detailed Industry Cyclicality
and Fixed-Cost Operating Leverage Risk (applicable to Corgi Aerospace &
Commercial Aviation ETF, Corgi Ports, Rail & Freight ETF, Corgi Shipping
& Global Logistics ETF, and Corgi Travel & Leisure ETF).
Companies in
these sectors are characterized by high fixed-cost structures and significant
capital investment requirements, often utilizing substantial debt financing to
acquire aircraft, vessels, locomotives, and other heavy infrastructure. This
high degree of operating leverage means that modest reductions in revenue can
lead to disproportionately large declines in profitability and cash flow. In
periods of market stress, these companies may be unable to scale down operations
or reduce fixed costs, which can result in financial distress, credit
downgrades, or default. The global nature of these operations also exposes
issuers to foreign exchange risk, as revenues are often earned in local
currencies while major capital expenditures and fuel costs are denominated in
U.S. dollars, which can create extreme volatility in share prices.
Supply Chain, Manufacturing,
and Component Dependency Risk (applicable to the Corgi Data & Surveillance
ETF, Corgi Drones & Urban Air Mobility ETF, Corgi High Voltage Grid
Equipment ETF, Corgi Lithography & Semiconductor Photonics ETF, Corgi Mag 7
ETF, Corgi Natural Gas Power & Turbines ETF, and Corgi Robots &
Humanoids ETF).
Many
companies depend on complex global supply chains, specialized components,
contract manufacturing, and critical suppliers. Supply constraints, capacity
bottlenecks, quality issues, single-source dependencies, labor shortages,
geopolitical disruptions, tariffs, trade restrictions, shipping delays, or
reliance on specific materials may delay production, reduce product
availability, increase costs, and adversely affect revenues and profitability.
Commodity price volatility for inputs such as lithium, copper, aluminum, steel,
and rare earth elements may also create margin pressure.
Indemnification, Warranty, and
Contractual Liability Risk (applicable to the Corgi AI Cybersecurity ETF, Corgi
Data & Surveillance ETF, Corgi High Voltage Grid Equipment ETF, and Corgi
Natural Gas Power & Turbines ETF).
Companies may
enter into contracts that include indemnification obligations, warranties,
service-level commitments, and performance guarantees, including obligations
relating to intellectual property, cybersecurity incidents, data breaches,
privacy compliance, and product performance or reliability. These provisions may
require companies to defend claims, pay damages or settlements, or provide
remediation. Equipment failures, warranty claims, or service execution issues
may lead to litigation, contract disputes, or terminations. Indemnification and
warranty exposure can be significant and difficult to predict and may adversely
affect revenues, margins, and cash flows.
Content, Brand, Intangible
Asset, and Cross-Border Enforcement Risk (applicable to the Corgi IP Licensing
& Royalties ETF).
For
issuers whose IP is primarily content, characters, brands, or trademarks,
monetization depends on consumer preferences, cultural trends, release
execution, advertising demand, and distribution economics. Underperformance of
key releases, unfavorable changes in platform or distributor terms, piracy, or
brand dilution can reduce revenues and profitability. The value of acquired IP,
content libraries, trademarks, and other intangible assets can be difficult to
assess and may be written down if expected cash flows decline. IP enforcement
across jurisdictions may be inconsistent, costly, and uncertain, and
cross-border licensing and collection may be subject to currency risk, legal
complexity, and regulatory restrictions.
Home Upgrade, Remodeling, and
Housing Sensitivity Risk (applicable to the Corgi Longevity Consumer ETF).
Companies
tied to home improvements, remodeling, home accessibility, and aging-in-place
upgrades can be sensitive to interest rates, housing turnover, consumer
confidence, and the availability of contractor labor and building materials.
Changes in housing market conditions, mortgage rates, or consumer discretionary
spending may adversely affect demand for these products and services.
Regulatory, Airspace
Integration, and Data/Privacy Risk (applicable to the Corgi Drones & Urban
Air Mobility ETF).
Drone
and UAM/AAM operations are subject to complex and evolving laws, regulations,
and approvals, including rules governing airspace access, safety certification,
pilot and operator licensing, noise restrictions, and zoning. Delays in
regulatory approval or unfavorable rulemaking may limit the commercial
deployment of drone and urban air mobility technologies. Drone and UAM
operations may also raise data privacy and surveillance concerns that lead to
restrictions on use, heightened compliance costs, or reputational harm.
Senior Living and
Aging-in-Place Services Risk (applicable to the Corgi Longevity Consumer
ETF).
Senior
living providers and related service businesses may be exposed to occupancy
variability, resident affordability, reputational events, litigation, regulatory
compliance costs, staffing shortages, and changes in government reimbursement
rates or healthcare policy. These factors may adversely affect the revenues,
profitability, and valuations of companies in this space.
Limited Shareholder Rights
Risk (Applicable to all Funds).
The
Trust is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is governed by its
Agreement and Declaration of Trust, which limits certain shareholder rights. For
example, the Trust generally does not hold annual meetings, and the Board can
take certain actions without a shareholder vote (including, in some cases,
liquidating the Fund). The governing documents also impose procedures on certain
shareholder lawsuits, require certain claims (other than federal securities law
claims) to be brought in Delaware courts, include a waiver of the right to a
jury trial for certain claims (other than federal securities law claims), and
limit the liability of, and provide indemnification for, Trustees and officers,
subject to applicable law. These provisions may make it harder or more costly
for shareholders to bring claims or influence Trust or Fund governance.
(Applicable to all Funds.)
PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS
INFORMATION
The
Funds' complete portfolio holdings will be made available on the Funds' website
at www.corgifunds.com on each business day, consistent with applicable SEC
requirements (including Rule 6c-11). A full description of the Funds' policies
and procedures regarding disclosure of portfolio holdings is provided in the
Fund's Statement of Additional Information (the "SAI").
Investment
Adviser
Corgi Strategies, LLC (the "Adviser"), located at 425 Bush
St, Suite 500, San Francisco, CA 94104, is a Delaware limited liability company
registered with the SEC as an investment adviser and serves as investment
adviser to each Fund.The Adviser was founded in July 2025, and as of March 31,
2026, has $27,172,159 in assets under management and serves as the investment
adviser for 38 other registered funds.
The Adviser is responsible for
overall portfolio management and administration of each Fund pursuant to an
investment advisory agreement with Corgi ETF Trust I (the "Trust") (the
"Advisory Agreement"). In addition to executing portfolio transactions, the
Adviser may arrange for, and oversee, service providers performing transfer
agency, custody, fund administration/accounting, distribution, and other
services necessary for each Fund's operations.
For its services to each
Fund, each Fund pays the Adviser a unitary management fee, calculated daily and
paid monthly, from the Fund's average daily net assets. Under the Advisory
Agreement, the Adviser pays substantially all of the Fund's expenses except for:
the advisory fee itself; interest charges on borrowings; taxes; brokerage
commissions and other expenses related to buying and selling portfolio
investments; dividends and other expenses on securities sold short; acquired
fund fees and expenses; any accrued deferred tax liability; distribution fees
and expenses under any Rule 12b-1 plan; litigation and other extraordinary
expenses; and any other expenses the Fund is responsible for under the Advisory
Agreement (collectively, the "Excluded Expenses").
Additional
information about portfolio transactions, brokerage selection, and research
services is provided in the SAI under Brokerage Transactions.
Advisory
Agreement
A discussion of the basis for the Board's approval of the
Advisory Agreement will appear in the Fund's Annual Report to shareholders for
the period ended December 31, 2026, on Form N-CSR.
Portfolio
Managers
The individuals primarily responsible for the day-to-day
management of the Fund are Isaac Hargett, Anthony Crinieri, and Miles Braden,
each a Portfolio Manager for the Adviser, each of whom has served as a portfolio
manager of the Fund since 2026.
Additional
information regarding the portfolio manager's compensation, other accounts
managed, and ownership of Shares is provided in the Fund's SAI.
The
Fund issues and redeems shares of the Fund ("Shares") only in large blocks
called "Creation Units," at a Fund's net asset value ("NAV") next determined
after an order is accepted. Only authorized participants ("APs"), who must be
members or participants of a registered clearing agency and must have an
executed participant agreement with a Fund's distributor and transfer agent, may
transact in Creation Units directly with the Fund. Once created, Shares may be
bought and sold in the secondary market in amounts less than a Creation
Unit.
Most investors buy and sell shares in secondary-market transactions
through brokers. Shares are expected to be listed for trading on Cboe BZX
Exchange, Inc. (the "Exchange") and can be bought and sold throughout the
trading day at market prices. Investors may pay customary brokerage commissions
and, because secondary-market transactions occur at market prices, investors may
pay more than NAV when buying Shares and receive less than NAV when selling
Shares.
Book Entry
Shares
are held only in book-entry form. The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") or its
nominee is the record owner of all outstanding Shares. Beneficial ownership of
Shares is shown on the records of DTC or its participants (e.g., brokers, banks,
and other financial institutions). As a beneficial owner, you will not receive
physical certificates and must rely on DTC and its participants to exercise
rights associated with owning Shares, consistent with standard "street name"
procedures.
The Funds do not impose restrictions on the frequency of
purchases and redemptions of Shares. Purchases and redemptions by APs are
integral to the ETF arbitrage mechanism and help keep market prices of Shares
close to NAV. The Board has considered the potential for frequent purchases and
redemptions, particularly for cash, to increase portfolio transaction costs,
tracking difference, and realized capital gains, and has approved policies to
mitigate these effects, including fair-value pricing and the imposition of
transaction fees on Creation Unit purchases and redemptions designed to cover a
Fund's costs. Each Fund and the Adviser reserve the right to reject any purchase
order at any time.
Determination of Net Asset
Value
Each Fund's NAV is calculated as of the close of regular
trading on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day
the Exchange is open for business. NAV is computed by dividing the Fund's net
assets by the number of Shares outstanding.
In determining NAV, portfolio
securities and other assets are generally valued at market value using
quotations, last sale prices, or values supplied by a pricing service or market
makers. When such information is unavailable or is deemed unreliable, the
affected investments are valued at fair value pursuant to the Fund's valuation
procedures.
Fair Value
Pricing
The Board has designated the Adviser as each Fund's
"valuation designee" under Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, subject to the Board's
oversight. The Adviser has adopted valuation policies and procedures to
determine, in good faith, the fair value of investments for which market
quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable (for example,
following a trading halt or when a primary pricing source fails to provide
data). In making fair-value determinations, the Adviser may consider all
reasonably available information deemed relevant, including issuer-specific
data, market conditions, recent trading activity, and the circumstances that
triggered the need for fair value. Because fair value determinations involve
judgments, the prices assigned may differ from values realized upon sale.
Investments by Other
Registered Investment Companies in the Fund
Investments by
registered investment companies in a Fund are subject to the limits of Section
12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act and related rules. Other registered investment
companies may invest in the Fund beyond the Section 12(d)(1) limits in
accordance with applicable SEC rules (e.g., Rule 12d1-4) and conditions, which
may include entering into a fund-of-funds investment agreement with the Fund.
Delivery of Shareholder
Documents - "Householding"
Certain intermediaries may offer
"householding," a method of delivery under which a single copy of shareholder
documents is sent to investors sharing an address, even if accounts are
registered in different names. If you wish to enroll in, or to change your
householding election, please contact your broker-dealer or other financial
intermediary.
DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS, AND
TAXES
Dividends and
Distributions
Each Fund intends to pay dividends and interest
income, if any, annually, and to distribute any net realized capital gains to
shareholders at least annually. Each Fund will declare and pay income and
capital gain distributions, if any, in cash. Cash distributions may be
reinvested in additional whole Shares only if the broker through whom you hold
Shares offers that option. Your broker is responsible for delivering any income
and capital gain distributions to you.
Taxes
The
following discussion summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations
that generally apply to investments in a Fund. Your situation may differ. You
should consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences of investing in
Shares, including the application of foreign, state, and local tax
laws.
The Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment
company ("RIC") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). If a Fund satisfies minimum distribution requirements, a RIC is
generally not subject to fund-level federal income tax on income and gains that
are timely distributed to shareholders. If a Fund were to fail to qualify as a
RIC or fail to meet the distribution requirements (and no relief were
available), it could be subject to fund-level taxation, which would reduce
income available for distribution.
Unless your Shares are held through a
tax-exempt entity or tax-advantaged account (such as an IRA), you should
consider potential tax consequences when a Fund makes distributions, when you
sell Shares on the Exchange, and (for institutional investors only) when you
purchase or redeem Creation Units.
This general discussion is based on
the Code and applicable Treasury regulations in effect on the date of this
Prospectus. New legislation, administrative guidance, or court decisions may
materially change these conclusions and may apply retroactively.
Taxes on
Distributions
For federal income tax purposes, distributions of a
Fund's net investment income are generally taxable to shareholders as ordinary
income or as qualified dividend income. Tax treatment of distributions of net
capital gains (if any) depends on how long the Fund held the investments that
generated such gains, not on how long you have held your Shares. Sales of assets
held by the Fund for more than one year generally produce long-term capital
gains or losses; sales of assets held for one year or less generally produce
short-term capital gains or losses. Distributions that the Fund reports as
capital gain dividends ("Capital Gain Dividends") are taxable to shareholders as
long-term capital gains. Distributions of short-term capital gains are generally
taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Dividends and distributions are
generally taxable to you whether received in cash or reinvested in additional
Shares.
Distributions a Fund reports as "qualified dividend income" are
generally taxed to non-corporate shareholders at the rates applicable to
long-term capital gains, provided holding-period and other requirements are met.
"Qualified dividend income" generally includes dividends from U.S. corporations
and from certain qualified foreign corporations (including those incorporated in
a U.S. possession, eligible for benefits under a comprehensive U.S. income tax
treaty, or whose stock is readily tradable on an established U.S. market).
Corporate shareholders may be eligible for a dividends-received deduction with
respect to portions of dividends attributable to qualifying dividends the Fund
receives from U.S. corporations, subject to applicable
limitations.
Shortly after the close of each calendar year, you will
receive information describing the character of distributions you received from
the distributing Fund.
In addition to federal income tax, certain
individuals, trusts, and estates are subject to a 3.8% Net Investment Income
("NII") tax. This tax is imposed on the lesser of: (i) net investment income (as
reduced by properly allocable deductions) or (ii) the excess of modified
adjusted gross income over specified thresholds ($250,000 for married filing
jointly, $200,000 for single filers, and $125,000 for married filing
separately). The Fund's distributions and any capital gains realized on a sale
or redemption of Shares are generally included in net investment income for
purposes of the NII tax.
In general, distributions are taxable to you in
the year paid. However, certain distributions paid in January may be treated as
paid on December 31 of the year prior. In general, distributions are taxable
even if they are paid from income or gains earned by the Fund before you
purchased Shares (and thus were reflected in the Shares' NAV at the time of
purchase).
You may want to avoid purchasing Shares immediately before a
dividend or other distribution, since the distribution will generally be taxable
to you even if, in economic terms, it represents a return of part of your
investment.
If you are neither a U.S. citizen nor a U.S. resident (or are
a foreign entity), distributions (other than Capital Gain Dividends) will
generally be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a 30% rate, unless a lower
treaty rate applies. Under certain circumstances, a Fund may report all or a
portion of a dividend as an "interest-related dividend" or a "short-term capital
gain dividend," which would generally be exempt from this 30% withholding tax,
provided other requirements are met.
The Foreign Account Tax Compliance
Act ("FATCA") may require each Fund to withhold a 30% tax (generally not
refundable) from distributions of net investment income made to: (A) certain
foreign financial institutions that do not satisfy applicable FATCA reporting or
due-diligence requirements (or that are not treated as compliant under an
applicable intergovernmental agreement), and (B) certain non-financial foreign
entities that do not provide required information regarding substantial U.S.
owners. FATCA may also affect the Fund's returns on foreign investments or a
shareholder's returns if Shares are held through a foreign intermediary. Consult
your tax adviser regarding FATCA's application and any related certification,
compliance, reporting, and withholding obligations.
Each Fund (or a
financial intermediary, such as a broker, through which a shareholder holds
Shares) is generally required to withhold and remit to the U.S. Treasury a
portion of taxable distributions and sale or redemption proceeds if the
shareholder fails to furnish a correct taxpayer identification number, has
underreported certain interest or dividend income, or fails to certify that they
are not subject to such withholding.
Taxes When Shares are Sold on
the Exchange
Any capital gain or loss realized upon a sale of
Shares generally is treated as long-term capital gain or loss if Shares have
been held for more than one year, and as short-term capital gain or loss if
Shares have been held for one year or less. However, a capital loss on Shares
held six months or less is treated as long-term to the extent of Capital Gain
Dividends received with respect to such Shares. Losses are disallowed to the
extent you acquire (including through dividend reinvestment) substantially
identical Shares within a 61-day period beginning 30 days before and ending 30
days after the sale.
Taxes on Purchases and
Redemptions of Creation Units
An authorized participant ("AP")
whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar and who exchanges securities for
Creation Units generally recognizes gain or loss equal to the difference between
(i) the value of the Creation Units at the time of the exchange and (ii) the
AP's aggregate basis in the securities delivered plus any cash paid. An AP that
exchanges Creation Units for securities will generally recognize gain or loss
equal to the difference between (i) the AP's basis in the Creation Units and
(ii) the aggregate U.S. dollar market value of the securities received plus any
cash received. The IRS may assert that a loss realized upon an exchange of
securities for Creation Units is not currently deductible (e.g., under the "wash
sale" rules for an AP not marking to market, or on the theory that there was no
significant change in economic position). APs should consult their own tax
advisers about the application of wash sale rules and the timing of any loss
deductions.
Any capital gain or loss realized upon redemption of Creation
Units is generally treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the Shares
comprising the Creation Units were held for more than one year, and as
short-term capital gain or loss if held for one year or less.
A Fund may
include a payment of cash in addition to, or in place of, delivering a basket of
securities when redeeming Creation Units. To raise cash for such redemptions,
the Fund may sell portfolio securities, potentially recognizing investment
income and/or capital gains or losses it might not have recognized if the
redemption had been satisfied entirely in kind. As a result, including cash in
redemption proceeds can reduce the Fund's tax efficiency.
The foregoing
discussion summarizes some possible consequences under current federal tax law
of investing in a Fund. It is not a substitute for personal tax advice. You may
also be subject to foreign, state, and local taxes on Fund distributions and on
sales of Shares. Consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences of
investing in Shares under all applicable laws. For additional information, see
"Federal Income Taxes" in the SAI.
Paralel
Distributors LLC (the "Distributor"), each Fund's distributor, is a
broker-dealer registered with the SEC, serves as the Fund's distributor for
Creation Units on an agency basis and does not make a secondary market in
Shares. The Distributor does not set Fund policies or select the portfolio
securities of the Fund. The Distributor's principal address is 1700 Broadway,
Suite 2100, Denver, Colorado 80290.
The
Board has adopted a Distribution (Rule 12b-1) Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule
12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, a Fund is authorized to pay up to
0.25% of its average daily net assets each year for distribution-related
services in connection with the sale and distribution of its Shares.
The
Funds do not currently pay Rule 12b-1 fees and there are no current plans to
impose such fees. If Rule 12b-1 fees are charged in the future, because they are
paid from Fund assets on an ongoing basis, these fees would increase the cost of
your investment over time and may exceed certain other types of sales
charges.
PREMIUM/DISCOUNT
INFORMATION
When
available, information about how often Shares traded on the Exchange at a price
above (at a premium to) or below (at a discount to) the Fund's NAV will be
provided on the Fund's website at www.corgifunds.com.
Shares
are not sponsored, endorsed, or promoted by the Exchange. The Exchange is not
responsible for, and has not participated in, the determination of the timing,
prices, or quantities of Shares to be issued, nor in the determination or
calculation of any equation by which to determine redeemability of Shares. The
Exchange has no duty or liability to shareholders for the administration,
marketing, or trading of the Shares.
Without limiting the foregoing, in
no event shall the Exchange have any liability for lost profits or for indirect,
punitive, special, or consequential damages, even if advised of the possibility
of such damages.
The Adviser and the Fund make no representation or
warranty, express or implied, to owners of Shares or to the public regarding the
advisability of investing in securities generally or in the Fund
specifically.
