1. | ORGANIZATION |
The Holbrook Income Fund and the Holbrook Structured Income Fund, each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds” are each a diversified series of shares of beneficial interest of the Two Roads Shared Trust (the “Trust”), a statutory trust organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 8, 2012, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Holbrook Income Fund Class I and Investor Class shares commenced investment operations on July 6, 2016. Class A shares commenced investment operations on July 23, 2021. The Holbrook Structured Income Fund Class I, Investor Class and Class A shares commenced investment operations on May 2, 2022. The investment objective of each Fund is as follows:
Fund Name | Investment Objective |
Holbrook Income Fund | Current income |
Holbrook Structured Income Fund | Current income and the opportunity for capital appreciation to produce a total return |
The Funds offer Class I, Investor Class and Class A shares. Class A shares are offered at net asset value (“NAV”) plus a maximum sales charge of 1.25% and 2.25% for Holbrook Income Fund and Holbrook Structured Income Fund, respectively. All other classes of shares are sold at net asset value without an initial sales charge. Class I shares are not subject to 12b-1 distribution fees and have a higher minimum initial investment than the Investor Class and Class A shares. Each share class represents an interest in the same assets of that Fund and classes are identical except for differences in their ongoing service and distribution charges. All classes of shares of a Fund have equal voting privileges except that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or distribution plans. Each Fund’s income, expenses (other than class specific distribution fees) and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated proportionately each day based upon the relative net assets of each class.
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by each Fund in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”.
Security Valuation – Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). In the absence of a sale such securities shall be valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices on the day of valuation. Debt securities (other than short -term obligations) are valued each day by an independent pricing service approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type, indications as to values from dealers, and general market conditions or market quotations from a major market maker in the securities. The independent pricing service does not distinguish between smaller-sized bond positions known as “odd lots” and larger institutional-sized bond positions known as “round lots”. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
The Funds may hold securities, such as private investments, interests in commodity pools, other non-traded securities or temporarily illiquid securities, for which market quotations are not readily available or are determined to be unreliable. These securities are valued using the “fair value” procedures approved by the Board. The Board has delegated to the
20
Holbrook Funds |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) |
October 31, 2022 |
adviser as its valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to execute these procedures. The Board may also enlist third party consultants such a valuation specialist at a public accounting firm, valuation consultant or financial officer of a security issuer on an as -needed basis to assist the Valuation Designee in determining a security-specific fair value. The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving fair value methodologies utilized by the Valuation Designee, approval of which shall be based upon whether the Valuation Designee followed the valuation procedures established by the Board.
Fair Valuation Process – The applicable investments are valued by the Valuation Designee pursuant to valuation procedures established by the Board. For example, fair value determinations are required for the following securities: (i) securities for which market quotations are insufficient or not readily available on a particular business day (including securities for which there is a short and temporary lapse in the provision of a price by the regular pricing source); (ii) securities for which, in the judgment of the Valuation Designee, the prices or values available do not represent the fair value of the instrument; factors which may cause the Valuation Designee to make such a judgment include, but are not limited to, the following: only a bid price or an asked price is available; the spread between bid and asked prices is substantial; the frequency of sales; the thinness of the market; the size of reported trades; and actions of the securities markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading; (iii) securities determined to be illiquid; and (iv) securities with respect to which an event that will affects the value thereof has occurred (a “significant event”) since the closing prices were established on the principal exchange on which they are traded, but prior to a Fund’s calculation of its net asset value. Specifically, interests in commodity pools or managed futures pools are valued on a daily basis by reference to the closing market prices of each futures contract or other asset held by a pool, as adjusted for pool expenses. Restricted or illiquid securities, such as private investments or non-traded securities are valued based upon the current bid for the security from two or more independent dealers or other parties reasonably familiar with the facts and circumstances of the security (who should take into consideration all relevant factors as may be appropriate under the circumstances). If a current bid from such independent dealers or other independent parties is unavailable, the Valuation Designee shall determine the fair value of such security using the following factors: (i) the type of security; (ii) the cost at date of purchase; (iii) the size and nature of the applicable Fund’s holdings; (iv) the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase and subsequent thereto; (v) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security; (vi) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security and the existence of any registration rights; (vii) how the yield of the security compares to similar securities of companies of similar or equal creditworthiness; (viii) the level of recent trades of similar or comparable securities; (ix) the liquidity characteristics of the security; (x) current market conditions; and (xi) the market value of any securities into which the security is convertible or exchangeable.
Valuation of Underlying Funds – The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end or closed-end investment companies (the “Underlying Funds”). The Underlying Funds value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value to the methods established by the board of directors of the Underlying Funds.
Open-end funds are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by such investment companies. The shares of many closed-end investment companies, after their initial public offering, frequently trade at a price per share, which is different than the net asset value per share. The difference represents a market premium or market discount of such shares. There can be no assurances that the market discount or premium on shares of any closed-end investment company purchased by the Funds will not change.
The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of all of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
21
Holbrook Funds |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) |
October 31, 2022 |
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following tables summarize the inputs used as of October 31, 2022, for the Funds’ assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

The Funds did not hold any Level 3 securities during the period.
Security Transactions and Related Income – Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized on securities purchased over the lives of the respective securities using the effective yield method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders – Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and distributed monthly. Distributable net realized capital gains are declared and distributed annually. Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are recorded on ex dividend date and determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are considered either temporary (i.e., deferred losses, capital loss carry forwards) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are
22
Holbrook Funds |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) |
October 31, 2022 |
permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Federal Income Taxes – It is each Fund’s policy to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been recorded.
Each Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken for open tax years 2020-2022 for the Holbrook Income Fund or expected to be taken in each Fund’s April 30, 2023 tax returns. Each Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal, Ohio and foreign jurisdictions where such funds makes significant investments; however, each Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably expected that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits, as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of October 31, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
3. | PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS |
The Funds’ investments in securities, financial instruments and derivatives expose it to various risks, certain of which are discussed below. The Funds’ prospectus and statement of additional information include further information regarding the of risks associated with the Funds’ investments which include, but are not limited to:
Holbrook Structured Income Fund: Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk, Concentration in Certain Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk, Credit Risk, Currency Risk, Cybersecurity Risk, Emerging Markets Risk, Extension Risk, Fixed Income Securities Risk, Floating or Variable Rate Securities Risk, Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk, Gap Risk, High Yield Risk, Illiquid Investments Risks, Industry Concentration Risk, Interest Rate Risk, LIBOR Risk, Liquidity Risk, Management Risk, Market Risk, Market Events Risk, Mezzanine Securities Risk, Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities Risk, New Fund Risk, Portfolio Turnover Risk, Prepayment Risk, Rating Agencies Risks, Residential Loans and Mortgages Risk, Sector Risk, Structured Products Risk, Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Risk, Unrated Securities Risks, U.S. Government Securities Risk, Valuation Risk and Volatility Risk.
Holbrook Income Fund: Baby Bond Risk, Business Development Company (“BDC”) Risk, Closed End Fund Risk, Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk, Credit Risk, Currency Risk, Cybersecurity Risk, Derivatives Risk, Emerging Markets Risk, Financial Services Sector Risk, Fixed Income Securities Risk, Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk, Gap Risk, High Yield Risk, Industry Concentration Risk, Investment Companies and Exchange- Traded Funds (“ETFs”) Risk, LIBOR Risk, Liquidity Risk, Management Risk, Market Risk, Market Events Risk, Portfolio Turnover Risk, Preferred Stock Risk, Quantitative Investing Risk, Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Risk, Underlying Fund Risk, U.S. Government Securities Risk, Valuation Risk and Volatility Risk.
Baby Bonds Risk – The primary risk associated with Holbrook Income Fund’s investments in baby bonds is that the issuer or insurer of a baby bond may default on principal and/or interest payments when due on the baby bond. Such a default would have the effect of lessening the income generated by the Fund and/or the value of the baby bonds. Baby bonds are also subject to typical credit ratings risks associated with other fixed-income instruments. Baby bond securities are classified as Corporate Bonds on the Schedule of Investments.
Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk – The Funds are subject to certain risks as a result of its investments in CLOs. The CLO’s performance is linked to the expertise of the CLO manager and its ability to manage the CLO portfolio. The experience of a CLO manager plays an important role in the rating and risk assessment of CLO debt securities. One of the primary risks to investors of a CLO is the potential change in CLO manager, over which the Funds will have no control. The Funds may be
23
Holbrook Funds |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) |
October 31, 2022 |
adversely affected by new (or revised) laws or regulations that may be imposed by government regulators or self-regulatory organizations that supervise the financial markets. Changes in the regulation of CLOs may adversely affect the value of the investments held by the Funds and the ability of the Funds to execute its investment strategy. CLO debt securities are limited recourse obligations of their issuers. CLO investors must rely solely on distributions from the underlying assets for payments on the CLO debt they hold. CLO debt is not guaranteed by the issuer or any other party. If income from the underlying loans is insufficient to make payments on the CLO debt, no other assets will be available for payment. CLO debt securities may be subject to redemption. In the event of an early redemption, holders of the CLO debt being redeemed will be repaid earlier than the stated maturity of the debt. The timing of redemptions may adversely affect the returns on CLO debt. The CLO manager may not find suitable assets in which to invest during the reinvestment period or to replace assets that the manager has determined are no longer suitable for investment. Additionally, there is a risk that the reinvestment period may terminate early if, for example, the CLO defaults on payments on the securities which it issues or if the CLO manager determines that it can no longer reinvest in underlying assets. Early termination of the reinvestment period could adversely affect a CLO investment.
Fixed Income Securities Risk – Fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, call risk, prepayment and extension risk, credit risk, duration, and liquidity risk. In addition, current market conditions may pose heightened risks for fixed income securities. When the Funds invest in fixed income securities or derivatives, the value of your investment in the Funds will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities or derivatives owned by the Funds. Moreover, new regulations applicable to and changing business practices of financial intermediaries that make markets in fixed income securities have resulted in less market making activity for certain fixed income securities, which has reduced the liquidity and may increase the volatility for such fixed income securities. The fixed-income securities market can be susceptible to increases in volatility and decreases in liquidity. Liquidity may decline unpredictably in response to overall economic conditions or credit tightening. Longer-term securities may be more sensitive to interest rate changes.
LIBOR Risk – The Funds may invest in securities and other instruments whose interest payments are determined by references to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”).
The United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced its intention to cease its active encouragement of banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR after 2021. ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, the administrator of LIBOR, ceased publication of certain LIBOR settings on a representative basis at the end of 2021 and is expected to cease publication of the remaining LIBOR settings on a representative basis after June 30, 2023. The U.S. Federal Reserve has begun publishing Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), a broad measure of secured overnight U.S. Treasury repo rates, that is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. The unavailability of LIBOR presents risks to the Funds, including the risk that any pricing or adjustments to the Funds’ investments resulting from a substitute or alternate reference rate may adversely affect the Funds’ performance and/or NAV. It remains uncertain how such changes would be implemented and the effects such changes would have on the Funds, including any negative effects on the Funds’ liquidity and valuation of the Funds’ investments, issuers of instruments in which the Fund invests and financial markets generally.
Market Risk – Overall market risk may affect the value of individual instruments in which the Fund invests. The Fund is subject to the risk that the securities markets will move down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, based on overall economic conditions and other factors, which may negatively affect the Funds’ performance. Factors such as domestic and foreign (non-U.S.) economic growth and market conditions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions, inflation, changes in interest rate levels, lack of liquidity in the bond and other markets, volatility in the securities markets, adverse investor sentiment affect the securities markets and political events effect the securities markets. U.S. and foreign stock markets have experienced periods of substantial price volatility in the past and may do so again in the future. Securities markets also may experience long periods of decline in value. When the value of the Funds’ investments goes down, your investment in the Funds decreases in value and you could lose money.
Local, state, regional, national or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Funds and its investments and could result

in decreases to the Funds’ net asset value. Political, geopolitical, natural and other events, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, government shutdowns, market closures, natural and environmental disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises and related events and governments’ reactions to such events have led, and in the future may lead, to economic uncertainty, decreased economic activity, increased market volatility and other disruptive effects on U.S. and global economies and markets. Such events may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on the Funds and its investments. For example, a widespread health crisis such as a global pandemic could cause substantial market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, impact the ability to complete redemptions, and affect Funds’ performance. A health crisis may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks. In addition, the increasing interconnectedness of markets around the world may result in many markets being affected by events or conditions in a single country or region or events affecting a single or small number of issuers.
COVID-19 has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, business and school closings, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many nations or the entire global economy, individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.
Preferred Stock Risk – The value of preferred stocks will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of preferred stock. Preferred stocks are also subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that an issuer of preferred stock will fail to make its dividend payments. Preferred stock prices tend to move more slowly upwards than common stock prices. Convertible preferred stock tends to be more volatile than non-convertible preferred stock, because its value is related to the price of the issuer’s common stock as well as the dividends payable on the preferred stock. The value of preferred stocks will usually react more strongly than bonds and other debt securities to actual or perceived changes in issuer’s financial condition or prospects and may be less liquid than common stocks.
Structured Products Risk – The Funds may invest in Structured Products, including CLOs, CDOs, CMOs, and other asset-backed securities and debt securitizations. Some Structured Products have credit ratings, but are typically issued in various classes with various priorities. Normally, Structured Products are privately offered and sold (that is, they are not registered under the securities laws) and may be characterized by the Funds as illiquid securities; however, an active dealer market may exist for Structured Products that qualify for Rule 144A transactions. The senior and junior tranches of Structured Products may have floating or variable interest rates based on LIBOR or an alternative reference rate and are subject to the risks associated with securities tied to LIBOR, including the risks associated with the future replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate. The Funds may also invest in the equity tranches of a Structured Product, which typically represent the first loss position in the Structured Product, are unrated and are subject to higher risks. Equity tranches of Structured Products typically do not have a fixed coupon and payments on equity tranches will be based on the income received from the underlying collateral and the payments made to the senior tranches, both of which may be based on floating rates based on LIBOR or an alternative reference rate.
Expenses – Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific fund are charged to that fund. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the funds in the Trust.
Indemnification – The Trust indemnifies its officers and trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds expect the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.

5. | INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES |
Advisory Fees – Holbrook Holdings, Inc. serves as the Fund’s Investment Advisor (the “Advisor”). Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Funds, the Advisor, under the oversight of the Board, directs the daily operations of the Funds and supervises the performance of administrative and professional services provided by others. As compensation for its services and the related expenses borne by the Advisor, each Fund pays the Advisor an investment advisory fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly based on average daily net assets as shown in the table below.
The Advisor has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or absorb expenses of the Fund (The “Waiver Agreement”), until at least September 1, 2023, to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses after fee waiver and/or reimbursement (exclusive of any front -end or contingent deferred loads; brokerage fees and commissions; acquired fund fees and expenses; borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short); taxes; and extraordinary expenses (such as litigation)) do not exceed the expense limitation shown in the table below, and is based on the Funds’ average daily net assets and is subject to possible recoupment (or recapture) from the Funds in future years on a rolling three year basis (within the three years after the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if such recoupment (or recapture) can be achieved within the foregoing expense limits as well as any expense limitation that was in effect at the time the waiver or reimbursement was made.
If the Advisor waives any fee or reimburses any expense pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, and within three years of such waiver or reimbursement, the Fund’s Operating Expenses are subsequently less than what is shown in the table below of average daily net assets, the Advisor shall be entitled to recoupment or recapture from the Fund for such waived fees or reimbursed expenses provided that such recoupment (or recapture) does not cause the Fund’s expenses to exceed what is shown in the table below of average daily net assets. If Fund Operating Expenses attributable to Class I, Investor Class and Class A shares subsequently exceed what is shown in the table below per annum of the average daily net assets, the recoupment (or recapture) shall be suspended. During the period ended October 31, 2022, the Advisor waived the expenses in the table below.

Approval of Advisory Agreement
Holbrook Structured Income Fund
At a meeting held on February 2, 2022 (the “Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Two Roads Shared Trust (the “Trust”), each of whom is not an “interested person” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees” or the “Trustees”), as such term is defined under Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), considered the approval of the proposed investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between Holbrook Holdings, LLC (“Holbrook” or the “Adviser”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Holbrook Structured Income Fund (“the Fund”).
In connection with the Board’s consideration of the Advisory Agreement, the Board received written materials in advance of the Meeting, which included information regarding: (i) the nature, extent, and quality of services to be provided to the Fund by Holbrook; (ii) a description of the Adviser’s investment management personnel; (iii) an overview of the Adviser’s operations and financial condition; (iv) a description of the Adviser’s brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements); (v) a comparison of the Fund’s proposed advisory fees and estimated overall expenses with those of comparable mutual funds; (vi) the anticipated level of profitability from the Adviser’s fund-related operations; (vii) the Adviser’s compliance policies and procedures, including policies and procedures for personal securities transactions, business continuity and information security and (viii) information regarding the performance record of other mutual funds with similar investment strategies.
Throughout the process, including at the meeting, the Board had numerous opportunities to ask questions of and request additional materials from Holbrook. During the Meeting, the Board was advised by, and met in executive session with, the Board’s independent legal counsel, and received a memorandum from such independent counsel regarding their responsibilities under applicable law. The Board also noted that the evaluation process with respect to the Adviser was an ongoing one and that in this regard, the Board took into account discussions with management and information provided to the Board at prior meetings with respect to the services to be provided by the Adviser. The Board noted that the information received and considered by the Board in connection with the Meeting and throughout the year was both written and oral.
Matters considered by the Board in connection with its approval of the Advisory Agreement included, among others, the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed materials provided by the Adviser related to the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Holbrook Fund, including: the Advisory Agreement; a description of the manner in which investment decisions are to be made and executed; an overview of the personnel that will perform services for the Fund and their background and experience; a review of the financial condition of the Adviser; information regarding risk management processes and liquidity management; the compliance policies and procedures of the Adviser, including its business continuity and cybersecurity policies and a code of ethics that contained provisions reasonably necessary to prevent Access Persons, as that term is defined in Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act, from engaging in conduct prohibited by Rule 17j-1(b); the Adviser’s compliance and regulatory history; and an independent report prepared by Broadridge, an independent third party data provider, analyzing the estimated fees and expenses of the Holbrook Fund as compared to those of peer groups of other registered investment companies with similar investment strategies as selected by Broadridge (the “Peer Group”). The Board also considered information and discussion with the Adviser with respect to various factors pursuant to Rule 22e-4 of the 1940 Act, including the investment strategy relative to the type of fund structure.
The Board also noted that on a regular basis it received and reviewed information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) regarding the Funds’ compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act, which included evaluating the regulatory compliance systems of the Adviser and findings by the CCO that the Adviser’s policies and procedures were reasonably designed to ensure compliance with federal
30

Supplemental Information (Unaudited) (Continued) |
October 31, 2022 |
securities laws. The Board noted no significant disruption or impact to services to the Adviser as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Board also considered the significant risks assumed by the Adviser in connection with the services provided to the Holbrook Fund, including entrepreneurial risk and ongoing risks including investment, operational, enterprise, litigation, regulatory, and compliance risks.
In considering the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board also took into account its knowledge, acquired through discussions and reports during the preceding year and in past years, of the Adviser’s management and the quality of the performance of its duties. The Board concluded that the management of the Adviser had the skills, experience and sophistication necessary to perform their duties and that the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Adviser with respect to the Fund were anticipated to be satisfactory and reliable.
Performance.
The Board noted that the Adviser did not currently manage a comparable fund or managed account with a performance track record for comparison. The Adviser provided the performance of the other Fund it manages, the Holbrook Income Fund. The Board considered that the Adviser’s other Fund is also an actively managed fixed income fund and considered that the Holbrook Income Fund has both outperformed its benchmark since inception and is currently highly-ranked among its peers of short-term fixed income funds and outperforming the majority of its peers. The Board noted that it was familiar with the capabilities of the Adviser and expected the Adviser to obtain an acceptable level of investment returns for shareholders.
Fees and Expenses. Regarding the costs of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board considered, among other expense data, a comparison prepared by Broadridge of the Fund’s proposed advisory fee and estimated annual operating expenses compared to the advisory fee and expenses of the funds in its Peer Group and Morningstar category (Nontraditional Bond), as well as compared to a peer group selected by the Adviser. The Board noted that while it found the data provided by the independent third-party generally useful, it recognized its limitations, including potential differences in the investment strategy of the Fund relative to its peers, as well as the level, quality and nature of the services to be provided by the Adviser with respect to the Fund.
The Board noted that the peer group in the Adviser’s 15(c) response was in the Adviser’s view carefully selected by the Adviser to most closely approximate the viable peers of the Holbrook Fund and was selected independently of and before that of the Peer Group.
The Board noted that the Holbrook Fund’s proposed advisory fee of 1.00% was higher than the Morningstar Category and Peer Group average, but not the highest among the funds within the peer group. The Board noted that the proposed advisory fee is below the average in the Adviser -selected peer group. The Board also noted that the net expense ratio of 1.50% was higher than the median of the Peer Group as well as the Morningstar category and median, but also not the highest. With respect to the peer group selected by the Adviser, the Board noted that the Holbrook Fund’s proposed advisory fee was marginally less than the mean of the peer group and the Holbrook Fund’s anticipated net expense ratio was within the range but not the highest. The Board also took into account that the Adviser had agreed to reimburse expenses to limit net annual operating expenses to 1.50 % of the Holbrook Fund’s average net assets (exclusive of any taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, indirect expenses, expenses of other investment companies in which the Holbrook Fund may invest, or extraordinary expenses such as litigation).
Based on the factors above, the Board concluded that the proposed advisory fee was not unreasonable.
Profitability. The Board considered the potential profitability of the Adviser and whether these potential profits would be reasonable in light of the services to be provided to the Holbrook Fund. The Board also considered and reviewed an estimated profitability analysis prepared by the Adviser and concluded that, based on the estimated
31
Holbrook Funds |
Supplemental Information (Unaudited) (Continued) |
October 31, 2022 |
costs of launching and managing the Holbrook Fund during its first year of operations, the anticipated profitability, if any, of the Adviser from its relationship with the Holbrook Fund did not appear to be excessive.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether the Adviser would realize economies of scale with respect to its management of the Holbrook Fund. The Board concluded that at current and projected asset levels for the initial term of the Advisory Agreement, economies of scale were not a consideration at this time but that the Board would consider whether economies of scale exist in the future.
Other Benefits. The Board also considered the character and amount of other direct and incidental benefits to be received by each of the Adviser from their association with the Holbrook Fund. The Board noted that the Adviser believed it would not receive any direct, indirect or ancillary material “fall-out” benefits from its relationship with the Holbrook Fund, although the Board noted that certain reputational benefits may result from the relationship. The Board concluded that such benefits are reasonable.
Conclusion. The Board, having requested and received such information from the Adviser as it believed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreement and having been advised by independent counsel that it had appropriately considered and weighed all relevant factors, determined that approval of Advisory Agreements with respect to the Holbrook Fund for an initial two-year term was in the best interests of the Holbrook Fund and its prospective shareholders.
In considering the approval of the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered a variety of factors, including those discussed above, and also considered other factors (including conditions and trends prevailing generally in the economy, the securities markets, and the industry). The Board did not identify any one factor as determinative, and each Independent Trustee may have weighed each factor differently. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of the advisory arrangements in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of fund performance and operations throughout the year.

Expense Example (Unaudited) |
October 31, 2022 |
As a shareholder of the Holbrook Funds (the “Funds”), you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges (CDSCs) and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Funds’ expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Holbrook Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from April 30, 2022, through October 31,2022.
Actual Expenses
The “Actual Expenses” line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The “Hypothetical” line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balances or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (Unaudited) |
October 31, 2022 |
The Funds have adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program as required by Rule 22e-4 (the “Liquidity Rule”) under the 1940 Act. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration, among other factors, the respective Fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources.
During the fiscal period ended October 31, 2022, the Trust’s Liquidity Risk Management Program Committee (the “Committee”) reviewed each Fund’s investments and determined that the Funds held adequate levels of cash and highly liquid investments to meet shareholder redemption activities in accordance with applicable requirements. Accordingly, the Committee concluded that (i) the Funds’ liquidity risk management program is reasonably designed to prevent violations of the Liquidity Rule and (ii) the Funds’ liquidity risk management program has been effectively implemented.
