Energy Infrastructure is Positioned
to Benefit from AI Data Centers Energy Needs
The growth of AI has enormous implications for a range of industries, from health care
to manufacturing. Less obvious, perhaps, are the impacts increased energy demand fromdata centers will have on the electricity and energy sectors. We believe energy infrastructurecompanies are poised to benefit from this trend, in particular, creating an opportunity
for investors.

Electricity consumption had remained relatively flat in the United States for the last several years. The proliferationof AI data centers is set to change that dynamic. Based on recent enterprise resource planning in states like Texas,
we believe electricity consumption is set for a re-acceleration. Data centers require significant power to operate,
and natural gas is the largest source of electricity generation in the United States.

Energy Infrastructure Companies Facilitate Natural Gas Buildout
Many data centers require a reliable, 24/7 source of energy, which we believe will meaningfully impact natural gas
demand above and beyond the market share growth it has already experienced (Exhibit 1). In fact, many utilities
are already increasing their near-term expectations for anticipated power generation capacity needed to satisfy
power growth related to this trend.
Natural gas has a relatively lower emissions profile than coal, a robust network of existing infrastructure, andan abundant domestic supply. These characteristics position natural gas well to benefit from increased electricity
demand in the United States and globally.

* Compound annual growth rate is the rate of return that an investment would need to have every year in order to grow from its beginning balanceto its ending balance, over a given time interval. The CAGR assumes that any profits were reinvested at the end of each period of the investment’s lifespan. Market share growth is a metric that measures how a company’s sales compare to the total sales of its industry and is an important indicator of acompany’s competitive position. These metrics are measures used to evaluate company characteristics and do not represent or predict fund performance.

The Energy Infrastructure Opportunity
As demand for energy grows, new infrastructure projects expected to generate attractive returns on capital underscore
why we remain optimistic about the long-term outlook of this asset class. These companies may also offer attractive
income, strong fee-based cash flows with inflation escalators, improved balance sheets, and sound corporate financemodels—along with potential growth supported by secular tailwinds like increased energy demand.

Performance data quoted represent past performance; past performance does not guarantee future results.

be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained by calling 855.244.4859.
Returns representing more than one year are annualized. The fund offers other classes shares which have higher expenses and a sales load, and thus lower
performance, than the class I shares quoted. Performance includes the reinvestment of income, dividends and capital gain distributions. Total return figures include
the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, and as the fund is taxable as a “C” corporation performance is net of federal, state and local taxes paid by the Fund.
Class I has a gross expense ratio of 1.29% and a net expense ratio of 1.21%. As reflected in the Fund’s current prospectus and assuming a full year of fundoperations. The Fund’s investment advisor has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses through January 28, 2025. Performance would
have been lower without fee waivers and reimbursements in effect. There is no guarantee that such waiver/reimbursement will be continued after that date.
Effective April 30, 2021, Class I shares were converted into the Fund’s Class Y Shares. Following the conversion, the Class Y Shares were renamed Class I Shares andadopted the legacy Class Y Shares’ performance and accounting history.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Investing in the Fund involves risk, including possible loss of principal
invested. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its
investment objective.
The Fund’s investments are concentrated in energy infrastructurecompanies, which are subject to risks specific to the industry,
such as fluctuations in commodity prices, reduced volumes ofnatural gas or other energy commodities, environmental hazards,
changes in the macroeconomic or the regulatory environment,
or extreme weather.
Investing in master limited partnerships (MLPs) involves certain risks
related to investing in the underlying assets of the MLPs and risks
associated with pooled investment vehicles. The Fund invests in smalland mid-cap companies, which involve additional risks such as limited
liquidity and greater volatility. In addition, investing in MLPs involves
material income tax risks and certain other risks. Actual results,performance or events may be affected by, without limitation,(1) general economic conditions, (2) performance of financial
markets, (3) interest rate levels, (4) changes in laws andregulations, and (5) changes in the policies of governments
and/or regulatory authorities.
Unlike most other open-end mutual funds, the Fund will be taxable
as a regular corporation, or “C” corporation. Consequently, the Fund
will accrue and pay federal, state and local income taxes on its taxable
income, if any, at the Fund level, which will ultimately reduce the returns
that the shareholder would have otherwise received. In addition, ona daily basis the Fund’s net asset value (NAV) per share will include adeferred tax expense (which reduces the Fund’s NAV) or asset (whichincreases the Fund’s NAV, unless offset by a valuation allowance). To theextent the Fund has a deferred tax asset, consideration is given as towhether or not a valuation allowance is required. The Fund’s deferredtax expense or asset is based on estimates that could vary dramaticallyfrom the Fund’s actual tax liability/benefit and, therefore, could have amaterial impact on the Fund’s NAV.
The Fund is not required to make distributions, and in the future theFund could decide not to make such distributions or not to makedistributions at a rate that over time is similar to the distribution rate it
receives from the MLPs in which it invests. It is expected that a portionof the distributions will be considered tax-deferred return of capital(ROC). The portion of the Fund’s distributions that are considered ROC
may vary materially from year to year. An investment in the Fund may
not receive the same tax advantages as a direct investment in the MLP.
