**Investment Objective**

The ROBO Global<sup>®</sup> Artificial Intelligence ETF (the "Fund") seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the ROBO Global<sup>®</sup> Artificial Intelligence Index (the "Index").

**Fees and Expenses**

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. **You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and Example below.**

<sup>1</sup> Exchange Traded Concepts, LLC (the "Adviser") has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its fee in an amount equal to 0.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets through August 31, 2026. This arrangement may be terminated only by the Board of Trustees (the "Board") of Exchange Traded Concepts Trust (the "Trust") or by the Adviser for any reason upon thirty days' prior notice to the Trust, such termination to be effective upon the expiration of the then-current term.

**Example**

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell 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 (after taking into account one year of waived fees for each period) remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your cost would be:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**1 Year** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**3 Years** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**5 Years** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**10 Years** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;$69 | &nbsp;&nbsp;$233 | &nbsp;&nbsp;$410 | &nbsp;&nbsp;$924 |

---

**Portfolio Turnover**

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when shares of the Fund are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example above, affect the Fund's performance. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 42% of the average value of its portfolio.

**Principal Investment Strategies**

The Fund normally invests in securities comprising the Index and in depositary receipts representing securities comprising the Index. The Index, which is owned and provided by VettaFi LLC (the "Index Provider"), is designed to measure the performance of publicly-traded companies that have a significant portion of their revenue derived from the field of artificial intelligence as described below and the potential to grow within this space through innovation and/or market adoption of their products and services ("Artificial Intelligence Companies"). Like peer group artificial intelligence indexes, the Index measures the performance of companies across sectors such as information technology, communications, consumer discretionary, healthcare and industrials that are involved in artificial intelligence activities. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of Artificial Intelligence Companies.

Index components are selected from a proprietary database of Artificial Intelligence Companies that are organized into two general categories – Infrastructure or Applications & Services – and further divided into sub-sectors. Infrastructure companies include companies that build artificial intelligence engine and platform solutions that enable the use of artificial intelligence technology. Within the Infrastructure classification are the following sub-sectors: (1) big data/analytics; (2) cloud providers; (3) cognitive computing; (4) network and security; and (5) semiconductors. Applications & Services companies include companies that apply artificial intelligence technology to their business. Within the Applications & Services classification are the following sub-sectors: (1) healthcare; (2) factory automation; (3) eCommerce; (4) consumer; (5) consulting services; and (6) business process. Each category's representation in the Index varies.

Each eligible company is individually analyzed and then given a "THNQ Score" ranging from 1 to 100 that is determined based on the levels of revenue the company receives from artificial intelligence activities, levels of investment the firm makes in artificial intelligence, and the company's technology and market leadership in the artificial intelligence universe. Companies whose THNQ Score is greater than or equal to 50 and that meet the market capitalization and liquidity requirements described below are eligible for inclusion in the Index. The Index is comprised of a minimum of 50 constituents and a maximum of 100 constituents. Each constituent's weight in the Index generally is determined by its THNQ Score as a percentage of the total score of all constituents. Companies in the Index are reweighted at each rebalance. Scores are reviewed on an ongoing basis by reevaluating the factors described above.

Eligible Index components are exchange-listed equity securities of Artificial Intelligence Companies that have a market capitalization exceeding $200 million at the time of inclusion in the Index and a minimum trailing 3-month composite average daily volume of $2 million at the time of inclusion. Existing Index components must maintain a market capitalization of at least $100 million and a minimum trailing 3-month composite average daily volume of $1 million. As of August 1, 2025, the Index comprised 53 securities. As of August 1, 2025, the average market capitalization and average one-year trading volume of the Index components were $353.35 billion and 3.87 billion shares, respectively.

The Index consists of securities of both U.S. and foreign issuers, including securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. The Index Provider expects, under normal circumstances, at least 25% of the Index components to represent securities of non-U.S. issuers, including China A-shares, which are shares of mainland China-based companies that trade on the Chinese stock exchanges. The Index is rebalanced and additions are made quarterly. Deletions from the Index may be made at any time due to changes in business, mergers, acquisitions, bankruptcies, suspensions, de-listings and spin-offs, or for other reasons as determined at the sole discretion of the Index Provider.

Additionally, the Index Provider excludes from Index eligibility any company that does not meet environmental, social and governance ("ESG") criteria established by the Index Provider. The Index Provider uses a combination of internal research, engagement with companies, and data from third party ESG research providers when applying its ESG criteria and these criteria generally are applied independently of business, financial, and other considerations that have been established by the Index Provider for a company's inclusion in the Index.

The Fund employs a "passive management" investment strategy in seeking to achieve its investment objective. The Fund generally will use a replication methodology, meaning it will invest in all of the securities comprising the Index in proportion to the weightings in the Index. However, the Fund may utilize a sampling methodology under various circumstances, including when it may not be possible or practicable to purchase all of the securities in the Index. The Adviser expects that over time, if the Fund has sufficient assets, the correlation between the Fund's performance, before fees and expenses, and that of the Index will be 95% or better. A figure of 100% would indicate perfect correlation.

The Fund will concentrate its investments (*i.e.*, invest more than 25% of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Index concentrates in an industry or group of industries. As of August 1, 2025, the Fund was concentrated in the Software Industry. In addition, in replicating the Index, the Fund may from time to time invest a significant portion of its assets in the securities of companies in one or more sectors. As of August 1, 2025, the Fund had a significant amount of investment exposure in the Technology Sector.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in investments that are not included in the Index, but which the Adviser believes will help the Fund track the Index.

The Fund is classified as a "non-diversified" investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a diversified fund.

The Index Provider is not affiliated with the Fund or the Adviser. The Index Provider developed the methodology for determining the securities to be included in the Index and for the ongoing maintenance of the Index. The Index is calculated by VettaFi, LLC, which is not affiliated with the Fund or the Adviser.

**Principal Risks**

As with all funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that his or her investment could lose money. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any government agency. The principal risks affecting shareholders' investments in the Fund are set forth below. Each risk summarized below is considered a "principal risk" of investing in the Fund, regardless of the order in which it appears

*Artificial Intelligence Companies Risk.* The Fund invests primarily in the equity securities of Artificial Intelligence Companies and, as such, is particularly sensitive to risks to those types of companies. These risks include, but are not limited to, small or limited markets for such securities, changes in business cycles, world economic growth, technological progress, rapid obsolescence, and government regulation. Artificial Intelligence Companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. Securities of Artificial Intelligence Companies, especially smaller, start-up companies, tend to be more volatile than securities of companies that do not rely heavily on technology. Rapid change to technologies that affect a company's products could have a material adverse effect on such company's operating results. Artificial Intelligence Companies also rely heavily on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secret laws to establish and protect their proprietary rights in their products and technologies. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by these companies to protect their proprietary rights will be adequate to prevent the misappropriation of their technology or that competitors will not independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to such companies' technology. Artificial Intelligence Companies typically engage in significant amounts of spending on research and development, and there is no guarantee that the products or services produced by these companies will be successful.

*China A-Shares Investment Risk.* The liquidity of the A-shares market and trading prices of A-shares could be more severely affected than the liquidity and trading prices of other markets because the Chinese government restricts the flow of capital into and out of the A-shares market. The Fund may experience losses due to illiquidity of the Chinese securities markets or delay or disruption in execution or settlement of trades. The Fund's investments in A-shares may become subject to frequent and widespread trading halts.

In addition, Stock Connect, which is a securities trading and clearing link between the mainland China stock exchanges and the Hong Kong stock exchange, only operates on days when the Chinese and Hong Kong stock markets are each open for trading and when banks in each market are open on the corresponding settlement days. The Fund may purchase and sell A-shares through Stock Connect only on days when Stock Connect and U.S. markets are open for trading. Therefore, if it is a normal trading day for the Chinese market but Hong Kong and/or U.S. markets are closed, the Fund will not be able to trade any A-shares. The Fund may be subject to the risk of price fluctuations in A-shares on such days. The Fund is also subject to the risk that it will not be able to buy or sell A-shares in a timely manner on days when the U.S. markets are open but Stock Connect is not.

*Common Stock Risk.* Common stock holds the lowest priority in the capital structure of a company, and therefore takes the largest share of the company's risk and its accompanying volatility. The value of the common stock held by the Fund may fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the issuers of securities held by the Fund participate, or facts relating to specific companies in which the Fund invests.

*Currency Exchange Rate Risk.* To the extent the Fund invests in securities denominated in non-U.S. currencies, changes in currency exchange rates and the relative value of non-U.S. currencies will affect the value of the Fund's investment and the value of your shares. Because the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") is determined in U.S. dollars, the Fund's NAV could decline if the currency of the non-U.S. market in which the Fund invests depreciates against the U.S. dollar, even if the value of the Fund's holdings, measured in the foreign currency, increases. Currency exchange rates can be very volatile and can change quickly and unpredictably. As a result, the value of an investment in the Fund may change quickly and without warning and you may lose money.

*Cybersecurity Risk*. The Fund is susceptible to operational risks through breaches in cybersecurity. A breach in cybersecurity refers to both intentional and unintentional events that may cause the Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption or lose operational capacity. Such events could cause the Fund to incur regulatory penalties, reputational damage, additional compliance costs associated with corrective measures and/or financial loss. Cybersecurity breaches may involve unauthorized access to the Fund's digital information systems through "hacking" or malicious software coding but may also result from outside attacks such as denial-of-service attacks through efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users. In addition, cybersecurity breaches of the issuers of securities in which the Fund invests or the Fund's third-party service providers, such as its administrator, transfer agent, custodian, or sub-adviser, as applicable, can also subject the Fund to many of the same risks associated with direct cybersecurity breaches. Although the Fund has established risk management systems designed to reduce the risks associated with cybersecurity, there is no guarantee that such efforts will succeed, especially because the Fund does not directly control the cybersecurity systems of issuers or third-party service providers.

*Depositary Receipt Risk.* Depositary receipts are subject to the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities. In addition, investments in depositary receipts may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market.

*Early Close/Trading Halt Risk.* An exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on specific securities, or the ability to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments may be restricted, which may result in the Fund being unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments. In such circumstances, the Fund may be unable to rebalance its portfolio, may be unable to accurately price its investments and/or may incur substantial trading losses.

 

*Emerging Markets Securities Risk.* Emerging markets are subject to greater market volatility, lower trading volume, political and economic instability, uncertainty regarding the existence of trading markets and more governmental limitations on foreign investment than more developed markets. In addition, securities in emerging markets may be subject to greater price fluctuations than securities in more developed markets. Differences in regulatory, accounting, auditing, and financial reporting and recordkeeping standards could impede the Adviser's ability to evaluate local companies and impact the Fund's performance. Investments in securities of issuers in emerging markets may also be exposed to risks related to a lack of liquidity, greater potential for market manipulation, issuers' limited reliable access to capital, and foreign investment structures. Additionally, the Fund may have limited rights and remedies available to it to pursue claims against issuers in emerging markets.

 

*ESG Considerations Risk.* A company may be excluded from the Index based on ESG criteria established by the Index Provider, which carries the risk that the Fund may forgo opportunities to buy certain companies when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so and may sell companies for ESG reasons when it might be otherwise disadvantageous to do so. The Index Provider's use of ESG criteria in constructing the Index may adversely affect the Fund's performance, as compared to funds that do not apply ESG criteria, or that apply different ESG criteria. The relevance of ESG considerations may vary across issuers, asset classes, industries, and sectors. A company's ESG characteristics or practices, or the Index Provider's assessment of such characteristics or practices, may shift into and out of favor depending on market, economic, or other conditions and factors, and may change over time. ESG is not a uniformly defined characteristic and applying ESG criteria involves subjective assessments. There may be significant differences in views in what constitutes positive or negative ESG characteristics of a company. The Index Provider's ESG assessment of a company may differ from that of other funds or investors. ESG ratings and assessments of issuers can vary across third party data providers, and ESG data may be incomplete, delayed, inaccurate or unavailable, which could lead to an incorrect assessment of a company's ESG characteristics. Data inputs may include information self-reported by companies or from third party data providers. Regulation of ESG investing in the U.S. and abroad is evolving. The impact of future regulatory change is currently unknown and could affect the construction of the Index.

 

 

*Foreign Securities Risk.* Investments in non-U.S. securities involve certain risks that may not be present with investments in U.S. securities. For example, investments in non-U.S. securities may be subject to risk of loss due to foreign currency fluctuations or to expropriation, nationalization or adverse political or economic developments. Foreign securities may have relatively low market liquidity and decreased publicly available information about issuers. Investments in non-U.S. securities also may be subject to withholding or other taxes and may be subject to additional trading, settlement, custodial, and operational risks. Non-U.S. issuers may also be subject to inconsistent and potentially less stringent accounting, auditing, financial reporting and investor protection standards than U.S. issuers. These and other factors can make investments in the Fund more volatile and potentially less liquid than other types of investments. In addition, where all or a portion of the Fund's portfolio holdings trade in markets that are closed when the Fund's market is open, there may be valuation differences that could lead to differences between the Fund's market price and the value of the Fund's portfolio holdings.

 

*Geographic Investment Risk.* To the extent the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region.

 

*Illiquid Investments Risk.* This risk exists when particular Fund investments are difficult to purchase or sell, which can reduce the Fund's returns because the Fund may be unable to transact at advantageous times or prices.

 

*Index Tracking Risk.* The Fund's return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the Index. To the extent the Fund utilizes a sampling approach, it may experience tracking error to a greater extent than if the Fund sought to replicate the Index.

*Industry Concentration Risk.* Because the Fund's assets will be concentrated in an industry or group of industries to the extent the Index concentrates in a particular industry or group of industries, the Fund is subject to loss due to adverse occurrences that may affect that industry or group of industries. The list below is not a comprehensive list of the industries to which the Fund may have exposure over time and should not be relied on as such. As of August 1, 2025, the Fund was concentrated in the Software Industry.

*Software Industry Risk.* Technological developments, fixed-rate pricing and the ability to attract and retain skilled employees can significantly affect companies operating in the software industry. Changing domestic and international demand, research and development costs and product obsolescence can affect the profitability of software companies. Software company stocks may experience substantial fluctuations in market price.

*Issuer-Specific Risk.* Fund performance depends on the performance of the issuers to which the Fund has exposure. Issuer-specific events, including changes in the financial condition of an issuer, can have a negative impact on the value of the Fund.

*Large-Capitalization Company Risk.* Returns on investments in securities of large companies could trail the returns on investments in securities of smaller and mid-sized companies or the market as a whole. The securities of large-capitalization companies may also be relatively mature compared to smaller companies and therefore subject to slower growth during times of economic expansion. Large-capitalization companies may also be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges such as changes in technology and consumer tastes.

*Limited Authorized Participants, Market Makers and Liquidity Providers Risk.* Because the Fund is an exchange-traded fund ("ETF"), only a limited number of institutional investors (known as "Authorized Participants") are authorized to purchase and redeem shares directly from the Fund. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occurs, the risk of which is higher during periods of market stress, shares of the Fund may trade at a material discount to NAV, possibly face delisting, and may experience wider bid-ask spreads: (i) Authorized Participants exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other Authorized Participants step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.

*Management Risk.* Because the Fund may not fully replicate the Index, may hold fewer than the total number of securities in the Index, and may hold securities not included in the Index, the Fund is subject to management risk. This is the risk that the Adviser's security selection process, which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results.

 

*Market Risk.* The market price of an investment could decline, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company such as real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions throughout the world, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. The market value of an investment also may decline because of factors that affect a particular industry or industries such as labor shortages, increased production costs, and competitive conditions. Local, regional, 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 market generally and on specific investments. For example, 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, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the rise of inflation have resulted in extreme volatility in the global economy and in global financial markets. Trade disputes and the imposition of tariffs, along with other matters, may negatively impact the economies of the United States and its trading partners, as well as the financial markets as a whole. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected. As a result, whether or not the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in or with significant exposure to countries experiencing economic and financial difficulties, the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments may be negatively affected.

 

 

*Micro-Capitalization Company Risk.* The micro-capitalization companies in which the Fund may invest may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies, and may underperform other segments of the market or the equity market as a whole. Securities of micro-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes, are often more vulnerable to market volatility, and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than larger capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole.

*Non-Diversification Risk.* The Fund is non-diversified under the 1940 Act, meaning that, as compared to a diversified fund, it can invest a greater percentage of its assets in securities issued by or representing a small number of issuers. As a result, the performance of these issuers can have a substantial impact on the Fund's performance.

*Operational Risk.* The Fund and its service providers may experience disruptions that arise from human error, processing and communications errors, counterparty or third-party errors, technology or systems failures, any of which may have an adverse impact on the Fund.

*Passive Investment Risk.* The Fund is not actively managed and, therefore, the Fund would not sell a security due to current or projected underperformance of the security, industry or sector, unless that security is removed from the Index or selling the security is otherwise required upon a rebalancing of the Index.

*Preferred Securities Risk.* Preferred securities are subordinated to bonds and other debt instruments in a company's capital structure and therefore will be subject to greater credit risk than those debt instruments. In addition, preferred securities are subject to other risks such as having no or limited voting rights, being subject to special redemption rights, having distributions deferred or skipped, having limited liquidity, changing tax treatments and possibly being in heavily regulated industries.

*Sector Focus Risk.* The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in one or more sectors and thus will be more susceptible to the risks affecting those sectors. While the Fund's sector exposure is expected to vary over time based on the composition of the Index, the Fund anticipates that it may be subject to some or all of the risks described below. The list below is not a comprehensive list of the sectors to which the Fund may have exposure over time and should not be relied on as such. As of August 1, 2025, a significant portion of the Fund consisted of companies in the Technology Sector.

*Technology Sector Risk.* The Fund is subject to the risk that market or economic factors impacting technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology advances could have a major effect on the value of the Fund's investments. The Technology Sector includes companies that offer software and information technology services, manufacturers and distributors of technology hardware and equipment such as communications equipment, cellular phones, computers and peripherals, electronic equipment and related instruments and semiconductors. The Fund is subject to the risk that the securities of such issuers will underperform the market as a whole due to legislative or regulatory changes, adverse market conditions and/or increased competition affecting the Technology Sector. The prices of the securities of companies operating in the Technology Sector are closely tied to market competition, increased sensitivity to short product cycles and aggressive pricing, and problems with bringing products to market.

*Small- and Mid-Capitalization Company Risk.* The small- and mid-capitalization companies in which the Fund invests may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies, and may underperform other segments of the market or the equity market as a whole. Securities of small- and mid-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes, are often more vulnerable to market volatility, and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than larger capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole.

*Trading Risk.* Shares of the Fund may trade on the Exchange above (premium) or below (discount) their NAV. The NAV of shares of the Fund will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund's holdings. The market prices of the Fund's shares will fluctuate continuously throughout trading hours based on market supply and demand and may deviate significantly from the value of the Fund's holdings, particularly in times of market stress, with the result that investors may pay more or receive less than the underlying value of the Fund shares bought or sold. When buying or selling shares in the secondary market, you may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase shares of the Fund (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for shares of the Fund (ask), which is known as the bid-ask spread. In addition, although the Fund's shares are currently listed on the Exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for shares will develop or be maintained. Trading in Fund shares may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make trading in shares of the Fund inadvisable. In stressed market conditions, the market for the Fund's shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Fund's underlying portfolio holdings. In such a circumstance, the Fund's shares could trade at a premium or discount to their NAV.

**Performance Information**

The following bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund's performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund's average annual returns for certain time periods compare with the average annual total returns of the Index, the VettaFi Full World Index, the Fund's primary broad-based securities market index, and the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index. The VettaFi Full World Index is an unmanaged float-market cap weighted index that is designed to and targets each of its countries large midcap market cap space across developed and emerging markets and the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index is a broad-based, unmanaged measurement of changes in stock market conditions based on the average of 500 widely held common stock. All returns assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Your actual after-tax returns will depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their shares of the Fund through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. In some cases the return after taxes may exceed the return before taxes due to an assumed tax benefit from any losses on a sale of shares of the Fund at the end of the measurement period.

**Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares**

The Fund issues shares to and redeem shares from certain institutional investors known as "Authorized Participants" (typically market makers or other broker-dealers) only in large blocks of shares known as "Creation Units." Creation Unit transactions for the Fund are generally conducted in exchange for the deposit or delivery of a portfolio of in-kind securities designated by the Fund and a specified cash payment. Individual shares of the Fund may only be purchased and sold in the secondary market through a broker or dealer at a market price. The Fund's shares are listed on the Exchange. You can purchase and sell individual shares of the Fund throughout the trading day like any publicly traded security. The price of the Fund's shares is based on a market price and, because exchange-traded fund shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at prices greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount). When buying or selling shares in the secondary market, you may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase shares of the Fund (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for shares of the Fund (ask) (the "bid-ask spread"). Recent information regarding the Fund's NAV, market price, premiums and discounts, and bid-ask spreads is available at <u>www.roboglobaletfs.com</u>.

**Tax Information**

Distributions made by the Fund may be taxable as ordinary income, qualified dividend income, or long-term capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-advantaged arrangement such as a 401(k) plan or individual retirement account. In that case, you may be taxed when you take a distribution from such tax-advantaged account depending on the type of account, the circumstances of your distribution, and other factors.

**Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries**

If you purchase shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Adviser may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
