Supplement to the
Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”),
each dated February 1, 2025
Effective February 10, 2025, Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC replaced UMB Fund Services, Inc. as the Fund’s administrator, accountant, and transfer agent. Accordingly, effective February 10, 2025 the disclosure in the Fund’s current Prospectus and SAI is amended as follows:
1. The section entitled “ADMINISTRATION” on page 4 of the Prospectus is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
The Fund has retained Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (the “Administrator”) to provide it with certain administrative services, including performing all actions related to the issuance and repurchase of Shares of the Fund. In consideration for these services, the Fund pays the Administrator the greater of an annual minimum fee as well as an asset-based fee, which scales downward based upon net assets for fund administration fees. The administration fee is paid to the Administrator out of the assets of the Fund and therefore decreases the net profits or increases the net losses of the Fund. The Administrator is also reimbursed by the Fund for out-of-pocket expenses relating to services provided to the Fund, and receives a fee for transfer agency services, other administration services, fund accounting and tax services. The administration fee and the other terms of the Fund’s administration agreement may change from time to time as may be agreed to by the Fund and the Administrator.
2. The section entitled “TRANSFER AND FUND ADMINISTRATION” on page 6 of the Prospectus is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC, serves as the transfer agent and administrator (the “Administrator”) of the Fund. See “Management of the Fund.”
3. The section entitled “Administrative Services” on page 70 of the Prospectus is deleted in its entirety and replaced with:
