DESCRIPTIONS OF INDICES AND TERMS

Managed Futures: SG Trend Index – An index designed to track the 10 largest trend following CTAs (by AUM) to represent trend followers in the managed futures space. Commodities: S&P
GSCI – An investable commodity index that is broad-based and production weighted to represent the global commodity market beta. It includes the most liquid commodity futures.
Equities: S&P 500® Total Return Index– A market-capitalization-weighted index of the 500 largest U.S. publicly traded companies. Fixed Income: Barclays Capital US Aggregate Bond Index®
– The most common index used to track the performance of investment grade bonds in the U.S. Global Equities: MSCI World Index– A free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted
index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets. Investors cannot directly invest in an index and unmanaged index returns do not reflect any fees,
expenses or sales charges.

Correlation is measured on a scale from 1.00 to -1.00. Investments with high correlation tend to rise and fall together. Non-correlated investments (0.00) tend to move up and down with no
relation to one another. Investments with negative correlation tend to move in opposite directions. Long-Term Trend-Following is a strategy that uses long-term indicators and averages,
general five months or longer. Systematic Trading employs computer-driven, mathematical models to identify when to buy or sell an instrument according to rules determined before a
trade is made, generally with little or no human intervention once a mathematical formula has been entered.

IMPORTANT RISK DISCLOSURE


Mutual funds involve risk including possible loss of principal. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The Fund’s indirect and direct exposure to foreign currencies subjects the Fund to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. Dollar, or, in the case of
short positions, that the U.S. Dollar will decline in value relative to the currency that the Fund is short. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short
periods for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates and the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the U.S. or abroad. In addition,
the Fund may incur transaction costs in connection with conversions between various currencies. The Fund will invest a percentage of its assets in derivatives, such as futures and options
contracts. The use of such derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities and commodities
underlying those derivatives.

The Fund may experience greater losses than those experienced by funds that do not use futures contracts and options. There may be an imperfect correlation between the
changes in market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures and options on futures. Although futures contracts are generally liquid instruments, under
certain market conditions there may not always be a liquid secondary market for a futures contract. As a result, the Fund may be unable to close out its futures contracts at a
time that is advantageous. Trading restrictions or limitations may be imposed by an exchange, and government regulations may restrict trading in futures contracts and options.
Because option premiums paid or received by the Fund are small in relation to the market value of the investments underlying the options, buying and selling put and call
options can be more speculative than investing directly in securities.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of AXS Chesapeake Strategy Fund. This and other important information
about the Fund is contained in the Prospectus, which can be obtained by calling 833.AXS.ALTS (833.297.2587). The Prospectus should be read carefully before
investing.
