<sup>1</sup> The Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser") has contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding brokerage costs, interest, taxes, dividends, litigation and indemnification expenses, expenses 

associated with investments in underlying investment companies (other than the Barrow Hanley Floating Rate Fund), and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.77%, 0.87%, 1.02%, and 0.77% for Institutional Shares, Advisor Shares, Investor Shares, and Class Z Shares until February 1, 2027. If it becomes unnecessary for the Adviser to waive fees or make reimbursements, the Adviser may recoup any of its prior waivers or reimbursements for a period not to exceed three years from the date on which the waiver or reimbursement was made to the extent that such a recoupment does not cause the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding brokerage costs, interest, taxes, dividends, litigation and indemnification expenses, expenses associated with investments in underlying investment companies, and extraordinary expenses) to exceed the current expense limitation or the applicable expense limitation that was in effect at the time of the waiver or reimbursement.

The agreement to waive fees and reimburse expenses may be terminated by the Board of Trustees (the "Board") of the Fund at any time and will terminate automatically upon termination of the Fund's Investment Advisory Agreement.

The Adviser further has agreed contractually to waive its investment advisory fee payable by the Fund in the amount of the investment advisory fee the Adviser receives attributable to the assets of the Fund invested in the Barrow Hanley Floating Rate Fund until February 1, 2027. This agreement may be terminated by the Board at any time and will terminate automatically upon termination of the Fund's Investment Advisory Agreement. <br>

<sup>2</sup> The contractual expense limit and advisory fee waiver represent 0.03% and 0.13%, respectively, of the 0.16% in Fee Waivers and Reimbursements shown in the table. 

**Example**

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that each year your investment has a 5% return and Fund operating expenses remain the same. The contractual expense limitation for the Fund is reflected only in the 1 year example and for the first year of the 3, 5 and 10 year examples. Although your actual costs and returns might be different, your approximate costs of investing $10,000 in the Fund would be:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **1 year** | **3 years** | **5 years** | **10 years** |
| **Institutional Shares** | $79 | $280 | $499 | $1128 |
| **Advisor Shares** | $89 | $312 | $553 | $1245 |
| **Investor Shares** | $104 | $359 | $634 | $1418 |
| **Class Z Shares** | $79 | $280 | $499 | $1128 |

---

**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 Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 34.25% of the average value of its portfolio.

**Principal Investment Strategies** 

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in credit instruments.

Credit instruments consist broadly of any debt instrument or instrument with debt-like characteristics, and include high yield bonds (commonly known as "junk bonds"), bank loans, loan participations and assignments, collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), mortgage-and asset-backed securities, structured notes, convertible securities, preferred stock and shares of investment companies that invest principally in credit or floating-rate loan instruments, including the Barrow Hanley Floating Rate Fund and other mutual funds in this Prospectus.

The Fund's portfolio typically will consist principally of high yield bonds that Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC, the Fund's sub-adviser (the "Sub-Adviser" or "Barrow Hanley"), believes are trading below their intrinsic value, selected through a fundamental research process designed to achieve a balanced goal for yield, principal preservation and capital appreciation.

To construct the Fund's portfolio, Barrow Hanley evaluates the macro environment, industry, and sector trends to determine views from one to three years. This process is designed to enable Barrow Hanley to find specific sectors that offer opportunities for both industry and issuer mispricings given Barrow Hanley's expectations of changing fundamentals. From there, Barrow Hanley uses two primary methods of identifying potential investments. The first involves independent sorting and research of documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as general and financial news, through the use of third party research databases, news services and screening software. The second method relies on the professional relationships that Barrow Hanley has established with money managers, leveraged buyout and private equity investors, investment bankers, research analysts, consultants, securities traders, brokers, corporate managers, corporate attorneys and accountants including in depth discussions with Barrow Hanley's equity research professionals. This analysis is designed to lead Barrow Hanley to industries and debt issuers that offer opportunities for what Barrow Hanley believes are mispriced investments.

**Principal Investment Risks** 

All investments carry a certain amount of risk, and the Fund cannot guarantee that it will achieve its investment objective. The value of the Fund's investments will fluctuate with market conditions, and the value of your investment in the Fund will also vary. You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could perform worse than other investments. Investments in the Fund are not deposits of a bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") or any other government agency. Below are the principal risks of investing in the Fund. All of the risks listed below are material to the Fund, regardless of the order in which they appear.

**Credit Risk.** An issuer of debt securities may fail to make interest payments or repay principal when due, in whole or in part. Changes in an issuer's financial strength or in a security's credit rating may affect a security's value.

**Asset-Backed Securities Risk.** Payment of principal and interest on asset-backed securities is dependent largely on the cash flows

generated by the assets backing the securities, and asset-backed securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets.

**Loan-Related Investments Risk.** In addition to risks generally associated with debt investments (e.g., interest rate risk, credit risk and default risk), loan-related investments such as loan participations and assignments are subject to other risks. Although a loan obligation may be fully collateralized at the time of acquisition, the collateral may decline in value, be or become illiquid or less liquid, or lose all or substantially all of its value subsequent to investment. Bank loans are generally less liquid than many other debt securities. There may be limited public information available regarding bank loans and bank loans may be difficult to value. If the Fund holds a bank loan through another financial institution, or relies on a financial institution to administer the loan, its receipt of principal and interest on the loan may be subject to the credit risk of that financial institution. It is possible that collateral securing a loan, if any, may be insufficient or unavailable to the Fund, and that the Fund's rights to collateral may be limited by bankruptcy or insolvency laws. In addition, the secondary market for bank loans may be subject to irregular trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads, which may cause the Fund to be unable to realize the full value of its investment in a bank loan. Transactions in bank loans may settle on a delayed basis (and in certain cases may take longer than seven days to settle), such that a Fund may not receive the proceeds from the sale of a loan for a substantial period of time after the sale. As a result, the proceeds related to the sale of bank loans may not be available to make additional investments or to meet a Fund's redemption obligations until a substantial period after the sale of the loans. As upheld on August 24, 2023 by the United States Court of Appeal for the Second Circuit, bank loans may not be considered "securities," and purchasers, such as the Fund, therefore may not be entitled to rely on the anti-fraud protections of the federal securities laws.

**CLO Risk.** Collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") issue classes or "tranches" that vary in risk and yield and may experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, decrease of market value due to collateral defaults and removal of subordinate tranches, market anticipation of defaults and investor aversion to CLO securities as a class. The risks of investing in CLOs depend largely on the tranche and the type of the underlying debts and loans in the tranche. Investments in non-creditworthy borrowers or subordinate tranches may carry greater risk. CLOs also carry risks including, but not limited to, interest rate risk and credit risk. Because the underlying assets in CLOs are loans, in the event an underlying loan is subject to liquidity risks such as the risk of extended settlement, investments in the corresponding CLOs may be indirectly subject to the same risks.

**Convertible Securities Risk.** Convertible securities subject the Fund to the risks associated with both fixed-income securities and equity securities. If a convertible security's investment value is greater than its conversion value, its price will likely increase when interest rates fall and decrease when interest rates rise. If the conversion value exceeds the investment value, the price of the convertible security will tend to fluctuate directly with the price of the underlying equity security. Certain "triggering events" may cause a Fund to lose the principal amount invested in a contingent convertible security and coupon payments on contingent convertible securities may be discretionary and cancelled by the issuer. Due to these factors, the value of contingent convertible securities is unpredictable, and holders of contingent convertible securities may suffer a loss of capital when comparable equity holders do not.

**Fixed Income Risk.** Fixed income securities will increase or decrease in value based on changes in interest rates. If rates increase, the value of the Fund's fixed income securities generally declines. Rising

interest rates may also extend the duration of a fixed income security, typically reducing the security's value. On the other hand, if rates fall, the value of the fixed income securities generally increases. Your investment will decline in value if the value of the Fund's investments decreases.

**Floating Rate Securities Risk.** The Fund may invest in obligations with interest rates that are reset periodically. Although floating rate securities are generally less sensitive to interest rate changes than fixed rate instruments, the value of floating rate securities may decline if their interest rates do not rise as quickly, or as much, as general interest rates. Certain floating rate instruments have an interest rate floor feature, which prevents the interest rate payable by the security from dropping below a specified level as compared to a reference interest rate (the "reference rate"). If the reference rate is below the floor, there will be a lag between a rise in the reference rate and a rise in the interest rate payable by the obligation, and the Fund may not benefit from increasing interest rates for a significant amount of time. Floating rate securities are issued by a wide variety of issuers and may be issued for a wide variety of purposes, including as a method of reconstructing cash flows. Issuers of floating rate securities may include, but are not limited to, financial companies, merchandising entities, bank holding companies, and other entities. In addition to the risks associated with the floating nature of interest payments, investors remain exposed to other underlying risks associated with the issuer of the floating rate security, such as credit risk.

**High Yield ("Junk Bond") Investments Risk.** Below investment grade fixed income securities, also known as "junk bonds," are not investment grade and are generally considered speculative because they present a greater risk of loss than higher quality debt securities. These lower-rated or defaulted debt securities may fluctuate more in price, and are less liquid than higher-rated securities because issuers of such lower-rated debt securities are not as strong financially, and are more likely to encounter financial difficulties and be more vulnerable to adverse changes in the economy.

**Interest Rate Risk.** When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by the Fund will generally decline in value. When interest rates fall, the value of fixed income securities generally increase. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short term fixed income securities or instruments. The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and the Fund's investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Fund. Your investment will decline in value if the value of the Fund's investments decreases. In a declining interest rate environment fixed income securities with stated interest rates may have the principal paid earlier than expected, requiring the Fund to invest the proceeds at generally lower interest rates. Recently, there have been inflationary price movements, which have caused the fixed income securities markets to experience heightened levels of interest rate volatility and liquidity risk.

**Investment Company Risk.** Shareholders in the Fund will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the underlying investment companies in which the Fund invests in addition to the Fund's direct fees and expenses. Investments in other funds also may increase the amount of taxes payable by investors in the Fund.

**Liquidity Risk.** The Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value.

**Management Risk**. Barrow Hanley's judgments about the attractiveness, value, and potential appreciation of a particular asset class or individual security in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect

and there is no guarantee that individual securities will perform as anticipated. Any given investment strategy may fail to produce the intended results, and a Fund's portfolio may underperform other comparable funds because of portfolio management decisions related to, among other things, the selection of investments, portfolio construction, risk assessments, and/or the outlook on market trends and opportunities.

**Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk.** Mortgage-backed securities are affected by, among other things, interest rate changes and the possibility of prepayment of the underlying mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to the risk that underlying borrowers will be unable to meet their obligations.

**Preferred Stock Risk.** The value of preferred stocks will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of preferred stock. Preferred stocks are also subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that an issuer of preferred stock will fail to make its dividend payments.

**Structured Notes Risk –** Structured notes are specially-designed derivative debt instruments in which the terms may be structured by the purchaser and the issuer of the note. The Fund bears the risk that the issuer of the structured note will default. The Fund also bears the risk of loss of its principal investment and periodic payments expected to be received for the duration of its investment. In addition, a liquid market may not exist for the structured notes. The lack of a liquid market may make it difficult to sell the structured notes at an acceptable price or to accurately value them.

**Regulatory Risk.** Changes in the laws or regulations of the United States or other countries, including any changes to applicable tax laws and regulations, could impair the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objective and could increase the operating expenses of the Fund.

**Performance Information** 

The Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund was reorganized into the Fund on August 18, 2024 following shareholder approval. The Fund commenced operations as of this date and assumed the financial and performance history of the Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund.<sup>(a)</sup> The bar chart and performance table below provide an indication of the risks of an investment in the Fund (and the Credit Opportunities Predecessor Funds for periods prior to reorganization) by showing how the Fund's performance has varied from year to year, and by showing how the Fund's average annual returns compare with those of a broad measure of market performance as well as to a securities market index with investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund. Performance information is shown for Class I Shares of the Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund as of December 31, 2023. Class I Shares of the Predecessor Fund were merged into Institutional Shares of the Fund as a result of the reorganization. Performance reflects contractual fee waivers in effect. If fee waivers were not in place, performance would be reduced. After-tax returns are shown for Institutional Shares only and will vary from the after-tax returns for other share classes. After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual U.S. federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-advantaged arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts ("IRAs"). Past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available by calling 866-260-9549 (toll free) or 312-557-5913.

<sup>(a)</sup> The financial and performance history of the Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund includes the financial and performance history of the Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss LLC High Yield Fixed Income Fund (the "Credit Opportunities Private Predecessor Fund"), which was a private fund managed by Barrow Hanley using investment objectives, strategies, policies and restrictions that were in all material respects equivalent to those used by Barrow Hanley to manage the Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund. The Credit Opportunities Private Predecessor Fund was not a mutual fund registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and therefore was not subject to the same investment and tax restrictions as the Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund. If the Credit Opportunities Private Predecessor Fund operated as a registered mutual fund, the Credit Opportunities Private Predecessor Fund's performance may have been lower. The Credit Opportunities Private Predecessor Fund contributed all of its assets to the Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund on April 12, 2022 and subsequently dissolved. The Credit Opportunities Predecessor Fund together with the Credit Opportunities Private Predecessor Fund are referred to as the "Credit Opportunities Predecessor Funds."
