&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) City National Rochdale, LLC, the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"), has contractually agreed to waive Management Fees for the Fund such that the fee charged is 0.15% through January 31, 2024. Prior to that date, the arrangement may be terminated without penalty (a) by the Fund's Board of Trustees, or (b) by the Adviser effective no earlier than January 31, 2024, upon at least 60 days' prior written notice. Management Fees waived by the Adviser pursuant to this arrangement will not be eligible for reimbursement by the Fund to the Adviser. The Adviser has agreed to voluntarily waive additional Management Fees for the Fund such that the fee charged is 0.04%. This additional voluntary waiver is not reflected in the fee table and may be terminated at any time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The Fund has contractually agreed to limit the Distribution (12b-1) Fee payable by Class S shares of the Fund to 0.45% through January 31, 2024. Prior to that date, the arrangement may be terminated without penalty by the Fund's Board of Trustees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The Adviser has agreed to voluntarily waive a portion of the expenses of the Fund to the extent needed to maintain a one-day net income yield (yield floor) of not less than 0.01% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The fee table does not reflect the impact of the voluntarily waived expenses. This waiver may be terminated at any time.

**EXAMPLE** 

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Government Money Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Government Money Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

**PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES** 

The Government Money Fund invests at least 99.5% of its total assets in cash, U.S. Treasury securities and other government securities guaranteed or issued by an agency or instrumentality of the U.S. Government, and/or repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by cash or government securities. In addition, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in U.S. Government securities and/or repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by government securities. In particular, the Fund invests in U.S. Treasury obligations, obligations issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government and repurchase agreements involving these obligations. Obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities in which the Government Money Fund invests consist principally of securities issued or guaranteed by Fannie Mae (formerly known as the Federal National Mortgage Association), the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"), Freddie Mac (formerly known as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) and the Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae"). The securities held by the Fund must, in the opinion of City National Rochdale, LLC (the "Adviser"), the Fund's investment adviser, present minimal credit risk. The Fund invests in compliance with the requirements of Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 relating to the credit quality, maturity, liquidity and diversification of investments for money market funds.

Using a top-down strategy and bottom-up security selection, the Adviser seeks securities with an acceptable maturity that are marketable and liquid and offer competitive yields. The Adviser also considers factors such as the anticipated level of interest rates and the maturity of individual securities relative to the maturity of the Fund as a whole.

The Fund does not currently intend to avail itself of the ability to impose "liquidity fees" and/or "gates" on Fund redemptions, as permitted by Rule 2a-7. However, the Board of Trustees reserves the right, with notice to shareholders, to change this policy in the future.

**PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND** 

As with any money market fund, there are risks to investing. Neither the Government Money Fund nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will meet its investment goals. Here are the principal risks to consider:

**Market Risk** – The market price of a security may move up and down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, due to general market conditions such as overall economic trends or events, government actions, market disruptions caused by trade disputes or other factors, political and geopolitical factors, economic sanctions, adverse investor sentiment, cybersecurity events, or local, regional or global events such as wars, terrorism, epidemics, pandemics or other public health issues. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry or sector of the economy, or the market as a whole. The value of the Fund's investments may decline in tandem with a drop in the overall value of the stock market based on negative developments in the U.S. and global economies, which could result in losses for the Fund. Adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities.

In recent years, the COVID-19 pandemic, the large expansion of government deficits and debt as a result of government actions to mitigate the effects of the pandemic, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the rise of inflation have resulted in extreme volatility in the global economy and in global financial markets. These events could be prolonged and could continue to adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments, impair the Fund's ability to satisfy redemption requests, and negatively impact the Fund's performance.

**Market Risk of Fixed Income Securities** – The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions about the creditworthiness of individual issuers, including governments. Generally, fixed income securities decrease in value if interest rates rise and increase in value if interest rates fall, with lower rated and longer-maturity securities more volatile than higher rated and shorter-maturity securities. Additionally, especially during periods of declining interest rates, borrowers may pay back principal before the scheduled due date, requiring the Fund to replace a particular loan or bond with another, lower-yield security.

**Government-Sponsored Entities** – The Fund invests in securities issued by government-sponsored entities, such as mortgage-related securities, which may not be guaranteed or insured by the U.S. Government and may only be supported by the credit of the issuing agency.

**Credit** – The Fund invests exclusively in securities that are rated, when the Fund buys them, in the highest short-term rating category, or if unrated, are of comparable quality in the Adviser's opinion. However, it is possible that some issuers or other obligors will be unable to make the required payments on securities held by the Fund. Debt securities also go up or down in value based on the perceived creditworthiness of issuers or other obligors. If an obligor for a security held by the Fund fails to pay, otherwise defaults or is perceived to be less creditworthy, a security's credit rating is downgraded (which could happen rapidly), or the credit quality or value of any underlying assets declines, the value of your investment in the Fund could decline significantly, particularly in certain market environments. If the Fund enters into a financial contract (such as a repurchase agreement or reverse repurchase agreement) the Fund will be subject to the credit risk presented by the counterparty. In addition, the Fund may incur costs and may be hindered or delayed in enforcing its rights against an issuer, obligor or counterparty.

CITY NATIONAL ROCHDALE FUNDS \| PAGE 3

**Interest Rates** – The Fund's yield typically moves in the same direction as movements in short-term interest rates, although it does not do so as quickly. The Fund's expenses could absorb all or a significant portion of the Fund's income, and, if the Fund's expenses exceed the Fund's income, the Fund may be unable to maintain its $1.00 share price without a subsidy by the Adviser or its affiliates. In addition, during periods when interest rates are low or there are negative interest rates, the Fund's yield also may be low or the Fund may be unable to maintain a positive yield or a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.

**Management** – The Fund's performance depends on the Adviser's skill in making appropriate investments. As a result, the Fund's investment strategies may not work as intended or otherwise fail to produce the desired results, and the Fund may underperform the markets in which it invests or similar funds.

**Repurchase Agreements** – Repurchase agreements are agreements under which securities are acquired from a securities dealer or bank subject to resale at an agreed upon price which includes principal and interest. Under all repurchase agreements entered into by the Fund, the Fund's custodian or its agent must take possession of the underlying collateral. However, if the seller defaults, the Fund could realize a loss on the sale of the underlying security to the extent the proceeds of the sale are less than the resale price. If the counterparty becomes insolvent, there is some risk that the Fund will not have a right to the securities, or the immediate right to sell the securities.

**No Guarantees** – You could lose money by investing in the Fund. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of City National Bank or Royal Bank of Canada and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Adviser and its affiliates have no legal obligation to provide financial support to the Fund, and you should not expect that the Adviser or its affiliates will provide financial support to the Fund at any time.

**Defensive Investments** – During unusual economic or market conditions, or for temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash or cash equivalents that would not ordinarily be consistent with the Fund's investment goals.

**Redemptions** – The Fund may experience heavy redemptions, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets, that could cause the Fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value and that could affect the Fund's ability to maintain a $1.00 share price. Redemption risk is greater to the extent that the Fund has investors with large shareholdings, short investment horizons, or unpredictable cash flow needs.

**Cybersecurity Risk** – Cybersecurity incidents may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to Fund assets, customer data (including private shareholder information), or proprietary information, or cause the Fund, the Adviser, and/or other service providers (including custodians, sub-custodians, transfer agents and financial intermediaries) to suffer data breaches, data corruption or loss of operational functionality. In an extreme case, a shareholder's ability to exchange or redeem Fund shares may be affected. Issuers of securities in which the Fund invests are also subject to cybersecurity risks, and the value of those securities could decline if the issuers experience cybersecurity incidents.

**Conflicts of Interest** – The Adviser and its affiliates are engaged in a variety of businesses and have interests other than that of managing the Fund. The broad range of activities and interests of the Adviser and its affiliates gives rise to actual, potential and perceived conflicts of interest that could affect the Fund and its shareholders.
