DIR DAILY TSLA BEAR 1X ETF

Investment objective: The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 100% of the inverse (or opposite) of the daily performance of TSLA. The Fund does not seek to achieve its stated investment objective for a period of time different than a trading day.

Principal investment strategies: The Fund, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of the Funds net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in financial instruments, including swap agreements and options, that, in combination, provide 1X daily inverse (opposite) or short exposure to TSLA, consistent with the Funds investment objective. Tesla, Inc. designs, manufactures and sells electric vehicles and electric vehicle powertrain components. TSLA 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 Tesla, Inc. pursuant to the Exchange Act can be located by reference to the Securities and Exchange Commission file number 001-34756 through the Securities and Exchange Commissions website at www.sec.gov. In addition, information regarding Tesla, Inc. may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents. As of December 31, 2024, TSLA is assigned to the consumer discretionary sector and the automotive company industry. The Fund will enter into one or more swap agreements with major global financial institutions whereby the Fund and the global financial institution will agree to exchange the return earned on an investment by the Fund in TSLA that is equal, on a daily basis, to -100% of the value of the Fund's net assets. The Adviser attempts to consistently apply leverage to obtain short TSLA exposure for the Fund equal to -100% of the value of its net assets and expects to rebalance the Funds holdings daily to maintain such exposure. As a result of its investment strategies, the Fund will be concentrated in the consumer discretionary sector and the automotive company industry ( i.e ., hold 25% or more of its total assets in investments that provide inverse exposure in the consumer discretionary sector and the automotive company industry). The Fund will attempt to achieve its investment objective without regard to overall market movement or the increase or decrease of the value of TSLA. At the close of the markets each trading day, the Adviser rebalances the Funds portfolio so that its exposure to TSLA is consistent with the Funds investment objective. The impact of TSLAs price movements during the day will affect whether the Funds portfolio needs to be rebalanced. For example, if the price of TSLA has fallen on a given day, net assets of the Fund should rise, meaning that the Funds exposure will need to be increased. Conversely, if the price of TSLA has risen on a given day, net assets of the Fund should fall, meaning the Funds exposure will need to be reduced. This daily rebalancing typically results in high portfolio turnover. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund is expected to hold money market funds, deposit accounts with institutions with high quality (investment grade) credit ratings, and/or short-term debt instruments that have terms-to-maturity of less than 397 days and exhibit high quality (investment grade) credit profiles, including U.S. government securities and repurchase agreements. The terms daily, day, and trading day, refer to the period from the close of the markets on one trading day to the close of the markets on the next trading day. The Fund is non-diversified, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Additionally, the Funds investment objective is not a fundamental policy and may be changed by the Funds Board of Trustees without shareholder approval. The Fund has derived all disclosures contained in this document regarding Tesla, Inc. from the publicly available documents described above. Neither the Fund, the Trust, the Adviser nor any affiliate has participated in the preparation of such documents. Neither the Fund, the Trust, the Adviser nor any affiliate makes any representation that such publicly available documents or any other publicly available information regarding Tesla, Inc. is accurate or complete. Furthermore, the Fund cannot give any assurance that all events occurring prior to the date of the prospectus (including events that would affect the accuracy or completeness of the publicly available documents described above) that would affect the trading price of TSLA have been publicly disclosed. Subsequent disclosure of any such events or the disclosure of, or failure to disclose, material future events concerning Tesla, Inc. could affect the value of the Funds investments with respect to TSLA and therefore the value of the Fund. Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each days return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each days returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from -100% of the return of the underlying security over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the underlying security performance is flat over time, and as a result of daily rebalancing, the underlying securitys volatility and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the underlying securitys performance decreases over a period longer than a single day.
