This and other important information is contained in the prospectus, which may be obtained by following the links Prospectus and SAI or by calling +1.215.882.9983. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Investments involve risk. Principal loss is possible.

The Fund is actively-managed is subject to the risk that the strategy may not produce the intended results. The Fund is new and has a limited operating history to evaluate.

Equity Investing Risk. An investment in the Fund involves risks similar to those of investing in any fund holding equity securities, such as market fluctuations, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. Foreign Investment Risk. Investments in foreign securities are subject to risks associated with foreign securities including currency risks; political, diplomatic and economic risks; regulatory risks; and foreign market and trading risks, including the costs of trading and risks of settlement in foreign jurisdictions. Bond Risks. Changes in interest rates generally will cause the value of fixed-income and bond instruments held by underlying ETFs to vary inversely to such changes. Gold Risk. The prices of gold and gold operation companies are affected by the price of gold as well as other prevailing market conditions. These prices may be volatile, fluctuating substantially over short periods of time.

Fund of Fund Risks. Because it invests primarily in other funds, the Fund’s investment performance largely depends on the investment performance of the selected underlying exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The Fund will indirectly pay a proportional share of the expenses of the underlying ETFs and ETPs in which it invests.

The Fund relies heavily on a proprietary statistical selection model as well as data and information supplied by third parties that are utilized by such model. If the model does not perform as intended, the Fund’s strategy may not be successfully implemented and the Fund may lose value. If the model or data are incorrect or incomplete similarly unavailable, any decisions made in reliance thereon may lead to the inclusion or exclusion of securities that would have been excluded or included had the model or data been correct and complete. Applying character scores to the investment process may exclude securities of certain issuers for non-investment reasons and therefore the Fund may forgo some market opportunities available to funds that do not use these criteria. As a result, at times, the Fund may underperform funds that are not subject to similar investment considerations.

The Fund will invest primarily in companies in certain sectors. The value of a security may decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or group of industries. Investing in securities of medium-capitalization companies may involve greater risk than larger, more established companies. Medium-Capitalization companies may be more sensitive to changing market conditions because they tend to be smaller or newer and may be more volatile and less liquid.

ETFs may trade at a premium or discount to their net asset value. ETF shares may only be redeemed at NAV by authorized participants in large creation units. There can be no guarantee that an active trading market for shares will exist. The trading of shares may incur brokerage.
