FUND SUMMARIES

Quantified Managed Income Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Managed Income Fund (the “Fund”) seeks high total return from fixed income investments on an annual basis consistent with a moderate tolerance for risk.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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 fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 718% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments. The Fund invests primarily in income-producing securities. The Fund does so indirectly through exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), and other closed-end and open-end investment companies that themselves primarily invest in income-producing securities. The underlying income-producing securities to which the Fund seeks to gain exposure primarily include U.S. government securities, corporate debt obligations, foreign debt securities (including emerging markets), and bonds in the lowest credit rating category, also called “junk bonds,” convertible bonds, preferred stocks, common stocks, master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), and real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). The Fund may also invest directly in these types of securities. The Fund may invest in fixed-income securities without any restriction on maturity. The Fund may gain exposure to income securities by using inverse and/or leveraging instruments: leveraged ETF positions, futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swap agreements, regardless of whether they generate income or dividends, and may invest up to 80% of its assets in short positions. The Fund employs short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets.

The Fund employs an aggressive management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. As part of its principal investment strategy the Fund may invest all or part of the Fund assets in short-term and ultra-short-term ETFs and for temporary defensive purposes, the Fund may invest all or part of the Fund assets in cash and/or cash equivalents.

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various fixed-income investments and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term to intermediate-term performance of each investment and invests in those securities that best fit the percentage allocations deemed beneficial by the Subadviser’s multiple proprietary algorithms.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which it invests a minimum holding period, though an investment’s actual holding period and allocation weighting will depend on its performance ranking. The allocation weightings will likely not be changed for a time period longer than the assigned holding period. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund. The Subadviser generally evaluates all investments weekly based on its allocation rankings but may reallocate more or less often to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. Finally, in making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser may utilize proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment analysis.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other fixed income mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and options include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Convertible Bond Risk – Convertible bonds are hybrid securities that have characteristics of both bonds and common stocks and are subject to fixed income security risks and conversion value-related equity risk.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers all derivatives and non-U.S. Treasury debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in derivatives such as futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives currently are subject to the following risks:

Futures and Forward Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. Forward currency transactions include the risks associated with fluctuations in currency.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Options Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relates to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic, or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies. These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Lower-Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund will invest a significant portion of its assets in securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds.” Junk bonds may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional, or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political, or social disruptions; natural, environmental, or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions, and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

MLP Risk – Investments in MLPs involve risks different from those of investing in common stock including risks related to limited control and limited rights to vote on matters affecting the MLP, cash flow risks, dilution risks and risks related to the general partner’s limited call right. MLPs are generally considered interest-rate sensitive investments. During periods of interest rate volatility, these investments may not provide attractive returns. Many MLPs are focused on energy-related business and are subject to energy sector risks, such as decline in the price of petroleum.

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.

REIT Risk – A REIT’s performance depends on the types and locations of the rental properties it owns and on how well it manages those properties. Real estate values rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, including local and regional. and national economic conditions, interest rates and tax considerations.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies (including ETFs) - Investments in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or ETF, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or ETFs, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or ETFs fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, closed-end investment company and ETF shares may potentially trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of other investment company or ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Adviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for each full calendar year since the Fund’s inception. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares over time to the performance of a broad-based market index. You should be aware that the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Advisor Class shares have similar annual returns to Investor Class shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, however, the returns for Advisor Class shares are lower than Investor Class shares because Advisor Class shares have higher expenses. Shareholder reports containing financial and performance information for the Fund will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually. Updated performance information is available at no cost by calling toll-free 1-855-64-QUANT (1-855-647-8268).

Quantified Market Leaders Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Market Leaders Fund (the “Fund”) seeks high appreciation on an annual basis consistent with a high tolerance for risk.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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 fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 1,289% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments. The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser. The Fund will typically invest primarily in equity (common and preferred stocks) or investment grade fixed income securities either directly through individual stocks and American Depositary Receipts (a security that trades in the U.S. financial markets representing a security of a non-U.S. company) (“ADRs”) or indirectly through exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and other investment companies. The Fund invests in fixed-income securities without any restriction on maturity. Investments in ETFs and other investment companies may provide the Fund exposure to equity, income, sectors, subsectors, domestic positions and international positions (including emerging markets), including positions relating to companies with small (less than $2 billion) and/or medium ($2 to $5 billion) market capitalization. Leveraged and/or inverse ETFs may also be used. The Fund also may invest in leveraging instruments: futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements, as well as take short positions with up to 80% of its assets in equity securities, futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements. The Fund may employ short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets. The Fund employs an aggressive management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover.

The Subadviser defines a market leader as an asset class that has the highest price momentum (such as mid-cap equity compared to all equities). The Subadviser measures asset class price momentum by reference to an ETF that is representative of the asset class. Among representative ETFs, the Subadviser selects those with the highest price momentum, when compared to other ETFs in the asset class. In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various market indexes to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term total return performance of each market index and usually invests the Fund’s assets in the top-performing equity securities within the top-ranked market indexes in accordance with Subadviser and third-party algorithms. The Subadviser may evaluate all indexes and individual equity securities as often as daily based on rankings, but it may reallocate less often in order to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. The Subadviser’s ranking strategy attempts to respond to both the performance of each equity security, as well as the performance of the market indices.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which it invests a minimum holding period, though the actual holding period and allocation weightings will depend on the performance ranking. The allocation weightings will likely not be changed for a period longer than the assigned holding period. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund.

Finally, in making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser may utilize proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price and volatility patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events. The Subadviser also uses these proprietary and third-party analysis models to implement its dynamic asset allocation strategy which, at any time for defensive purposes, may result in a large portion or all of the fund’s assets invested, directly or indirectly, in investment grade fixed income securities, cash and/or cash equivalents in order to seek to provide security of principal, current income and liquidity. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment analysis.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other equity mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective. Determination of leadership status based on historical analysis may not be predictive of future leadership status.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and options include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers all derivatives and non-U.S. Treasury debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Depositary Receipt Risk – To the extent the Fund invests in stocks of foreign corporations, the Fund’s investment in such stocks may also be in the form of depositary receipts or other securities convertible into securities of foreign issuers, including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). While the use of ADRs, which are traded on exchanges and represent an ownership in a foreign security, provide an alternative to directly purchasing the underlying foreign securities in their respective national markets and currencies, investments in ADRs continue to be subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Futures and Forward Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. Forward currency transactions include the risks associated with fluctuations in currency.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Options Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relate to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the NAV of the Fund to fluctuate.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies. These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies (including ETFs) – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or ETF, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or ETFs, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or ETFs fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, closed-end investment company and ETF shares may potentially trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of other investment company or ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Adviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises as result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk – Investing in the securities of small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies involves greater risks and the possibility of greater price volatility than investing in larger capitalization and more-established companies. Investments in mid-cap companies involve less risk than investing in small-cap companies. Smaller companies may have limited operating history, product lines, and financial resources, and the securities of these companies may lack sufficient market liquidity. Mid-cap companies often have narrower markets and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for each full calendar year since the Fund’s inception. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares over time to the performance of a broad-based market index. You should be aware that the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Advisor Class shares have similar annual returns to Investor Class shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, however, the returns for Advisor Class shares are lower than Investor Class shares because Advisor Class shares have higher expenses. Shareholder reports containing financial and performance information for the Fund will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

The Fund, Adviser or Subadviser may waive any investment minimum.

Tax Information: Dividends and capital gain distributions you receive from the Fund, whether you reinvest your distributions in additional Fund shares or receive them in cash, are taxable to you at either ordinary income or capital gains tax rates unless you are investing through a tax-deferred plan such as an IRA or 401(k) plan. However, these dividend and capital gain distributions may be taxable upon their eventual withdrawal from tax-deferred plans.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries: If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services.

Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Quantified Alternative Investment Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Alternative Investment Fund (the “Fund”) seeks high total return from alternative investment vehicles on an annual basis consistent with a high tolerance for risk.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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 fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 571% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the Subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments. The Fund is aggressively managed by FPI. The Fund will primarily invest indirectly in alternative investments by using exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), open-end mutual funds and other investment companies. The Subadviser defines “Alternative Investment” as any security or instrument that it expects to have returns with a low or negative return correlation with the S&P 500^® Index over time. Furthermore, the term “Alternative Investment” in the Fund’s name also refers to the non-traditional types of equity (i.e., other than common stocks expected to have returns highly correlated to the S&P 500^® Index over time) and debt securities in which the Fund may invest and to which the Fund may gain exposure through investments in ETFs, open-end mutual funds and other investment companies. Investments in ETFs, Unit Investment Trusts (“UITs”) and investment companies may include those investing (passively or actively) in equity, income, commodities, sectors, domestic, international, currency, inverse and/or leveraged positions and alternative investments, including non-principal positions relating to companies with small (less than $2 billion) or medium ($2 to $5 billion) market capitalization. The Fund invests in fixed-income securities without any restriction on maturity. The alternative investments provide the Fund exposure to dynamic market strategies, which utilize U.S. and foreign dividend-paying equities or interest-bearing fixed income securities having a low or negative correlation with the S&P 500^® Index, including U.S. dollar-denominated corporate obligations, mortgage and asset-backed securities, commodities, currencies and foreign (including emerging markets) and domestic securities. The Fund also may invest in leveraging instruments: futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements, and may take short positions with up to 80% of its asset in income generating equity or alternative securities, futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements relating thereto. The Fund may also use borrowing to leverage the portfolio and manage cash flows. The Fund employs short positions for

hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets. The Fund may gain exposure without limitation to securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds”, including bonds in the lowest credit rating category. The Fund may also invest to gain indirect exposure to Bitcoin, through Bitcoin futures contracts and shares of Bitcoin-linked funds such as Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust. The Fund limits investment in Grayscale ® Bitcoin Trust shares to 15% of total assets but does not limit Bitcoin-linked ETFs and mutual funds. Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust is a Delaware statutory trust that holds Bitcoin and issues common units of fractional undivided beneficial interest (shares) that trade in the over-the-counter market. The Fund employs an aggressive management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. As part of its principal investment strategy the Fund may invest significantly in cash and/or cash equivalents.

The Fund will invest up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with indirect exposure to certain instruments such as Bitcoin futures within the limitations of the federal tax requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “code”). The Subsidiary will invest primarily in commodities and Bitcoin-related instruments. The Fund’s investments will be composed primarily of securities, even when viewing the Subsidiary on a consolidated basis. The Subsidiary, when viewed from a consolidated basis, is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Fund.

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various alternative securities and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term to intermediate-term performance of each investment and invests in those securities that best fit the percentage allocations deemed beneficial by the Subadviser’s multiple proprietary algorithms.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which it invests a minimum holding period, though an investment’s actual holding period and allocation weighting will depend on its performance ranking. The allocation weightings will likely not be changed for a period longer than the assigned holding period. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund. The Subadviser generally evaluates all investments daily based on its allocation rankings but may reallocate less often to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. Finally, in making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser may utilize proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events. The Subadviser also uses these proprietary analysis models to implement its dynamic asset allocation strategy which, at any time, may result in a large portion or all of the fund’s assets invested, directly or indirectly, in investment grade fixed income securities, cash and/or cash equivalents in order to seek to provide security of principal, current income and liquidity. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment analysis.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other fixed income mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective. Determination of alternative status based on historical analysis may not be indicative of future results.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and options include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Asset-Backed Securities Risk - Payment of interest and repayment of principal may be impacted by the cash flows generated by the assets backing these securities. The value of the Fund’s asset-backed securities also may be affected by changes in interest rates, the availability of information concerning the interests in and structure of the pools of purchase contracts, financing leases or sales agreements that are represented by these securities, the creditworthiness of the servicing agent for the pool, the originator of the loans or receivables, or the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, or other credit enhancements.

Bitcoin Risk – Bitcoin may experience very high volatility and related investment vehicles may be affected by such volatility. As a cryptocurrency, Bitcoin operates without central authority and is not backed by any government. Federal, state or foreign governments may restrict the use and exchange of Bitcoin, and regulation in the U.S. is still developing. Increased regulation might tend to depress the price of Bitcoin. Cryptocurrency exchanges may stop operating or permanently shut down due to fraud, technical glitches, hackers or malware. Bitcoin transactions are irrevocable and stolen or incorrectly transferred Bitcoins may be irretrievable. As a result, any incorrectly executed Bitcoin transactions could adversely affect the value of the Fund’s investment in the Grayscale ® Bitcoin Trust. Historically, Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust has traded at a significant premium or discount. Bitcoin futures-related funds are subject to imperfect correlation between Bitcoin futures and Bitcoins, as well as futures liquidity risk. There may not be a liquid market for Bitcoin futures contracts.

Commodity Risk – The investments in companies involved in commodity-related businesses may be subject to greater volatility than investments in companies involved in more traditional businesses. The value of companies in commodity-related businesses may be affected by overall market movements and other factors affecting the value of a particular industry or commodity, such as weather, disease, embargoes, or political and regulatory developments.

Convertible Bond Risk – Convertible bonds are hybrid securities that have characteristics of both bonds and common stocks and are subject to fixed income security risks and conversion value-related equity risk.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers all derivatives and non-U.S. Treasury debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in derivatives such as futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Futures and Forward Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. Forward currency transactions include the risks associated with fluctuations in currency.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Options Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relate to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies. These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments and borrowing may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. Borrowing will reduce the returns by interest expense and other fees.

Lower Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund will invest a significant portion of its assets in securities rated below investment grade or junk bonds which may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Prepayment Risk and Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk – Many types of debt securities, including mortgage securities, are subject to prepayment risk. Prepayment occurs when the issuer of a security can repay principal prior to the security’s maturity. Securities subject to prepayment can offer less potential for gains during a declining interest rate environment and similar or greater potential for loss in a rising interest rate environment. In addition, the potential impact of prepayment features on the price of a debt security can be difficult to predict and result in greater volatility. As a result, the Fund may have to reinvest its assets in mortgage securities or other debt securities that have lower yields.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies (including ETFs and UITs) – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or ETF, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or ETFs, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or ETFs fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, closed-end investment company and ETF shares may potentially trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of other investment company or ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Adviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises, a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Taxation Risk – By investing in certain instruments indirectly through the Subsidiary, the Fund will obtain exposure to these markets within the Federal tax requirements that apply to the Fund. However, because the Subsidiary is a controlled foreign corporation, any income received from its investments will be through to the Fund as ordinary income, which may be taxed at less favorable rates than capital gains.

Wholly Owned Subsidiary Risk – Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, under which the Fund and the Subsidiary, respectively, are organized, could result in the inability of the Fund and/or Subsidiary to operate as described in this Prospectus and could negatively affect the Fund and its shareholders. The Subsidiary is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended, and unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act, such as limits on leverage when viewed in isolation from the Fund.

Quantified STF Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified STF Fund (the “Fund”) seeks high appreciation on an annual basis consistent with a high tolerance for risk.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 38% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the Subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments. The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser, which typically results in high portfolio turnover. FPI seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective primarily by using the Subadviser’s proprietary Self-Adjusting Trend Following Strategy (“STF Strategy”). The STF Strategy assesses market risk and classifies it into four levels and allocates assets accordingly between equity-related and fixed income-related asset classes.

Self-Adjusting Trend Following Strategy

The STF Strategy is used to allocate Fund assets between long and short equity-related and long fixed income-related investments. This strategy monitors the price trends of the NASDAQ 100 Index to assess market conditions. The proprietary price-based rules can involve index prices at daily market close, and moving average values of daily close prices, including but not limited to 3-day, 5-day, 10-day, 50-day and 200-day moving averages, as well as day-to-day changes of one or more of these moving averages, and the slope of the moving averages. The STF Strategy follows easily identifiable market trends, with a proprietary rule set that seeks to take advantage of both up and down market trends. Since the market risk exposure of the STF Strategy is solely based on the price action of the NASDAQ 100 Index, the STF Strategy aims to out-perform the NASDAQ 100 Index over the long term with less downside risk. The NASDAQ 100 Index includes 100 of the largest domestic and international non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market based on market capitalization. The STF Strategy adjusts overall Fund market risk exposure relative to the NASDAQ 100 Index at four discrete levels, defined by proprietary market trend measures, and according to a NASDAQ 100 Index price-based proprietary rule set:

Short to Medium-Term Fixed Income Allocation

The Fund will invest directly in short to medium-term fixed income securities. The portion of the Fund invested in short- to medium-term fixed income securities will be greatest when the STF Strategy finds no obvious market trend (risk level 1 above). The Subadviser’s security selection decisions are driven by liquidity, rating and time to maturity. This portion of the Fund’s portfolio is constructed in order to mitigate interest rate and credit risk while optimizing income and will involve investment in the following securities: cash, cash equivalents, and upper medium investment grade to prime investment grade short-term debt securities and money market instruments.

Fixed Income/Equity Income Allocation

The Fund will also invest in income-producing securities. The portion of the Fund invested in income-producing securities will be greatest when the STF Strategy finds no obvious market trend (risk level 1 above). The Fund does so indirectly through ETFs, other closed-end and open-end investment companies that themselves primarily invest in income-producing securities. The underlying income-producing securities to which the Fund seeks to gain exposure are primarily: U.S. government securities, corporate debt obligations, foreign debt securities (including emerging markets, which the Fund defines, generally, as those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S.), and bonds in the lowest credit rating category, also called “junk bonds,” convertible bonds, preferred stocks, common stocks, master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), and real estate investment trusts (“REITs”).

Subadvisor may also utilize its proprietary Targeted Volatility Analysis (TVA) in conjunction with the use of the two income allocations to seek to target a level of volatility (based on historical standard deviation measures) for the Fund during any of the Fund’s four levels of market risk exposure. The Fund may supplement its exposure to equity markets other than the NASDAQ 100 index through an investment in pooled investment vehicles that focus on other equity segments such as the S&P 500.

The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization, country, credit quality or the maturity of a security. The Adviser selects swap counterparties that it believes are creditworthy based on credit rating and financial strength. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment strategy analysis.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser’s use of ETFs, ETNs, and other instruments as substitutes for the underlying stocks of the NASDAQ 100 Index means only a portion of the NASDAQ 100 Index’s dividend yield will be realized because the expenses of ETFs, ETNs, and other instruments reduce their yield. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, that is, inverse and leveraged instruments and derivatives that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and options include potentially dramatic price changes (gains or losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Convertible Bond Risk – Convertible bonds are hybrid securities that have characteristics of both bonds and common stocks and are subject to fixed income security risks and conversion value-related equity risk.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance.

Depositary Receipt Risk – To the extent the Fund invests in stocks of foreign corporations, the Fund’s investment in such stocks may also be in the form of depositary receipts or other securities convertible into securities of foreign issuers, including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). While the use of ADRs, which are traded on exchanges and represent an ownership in a foreign security, provide an alternative to directly purchasing the underlying foreign securities in their respective national markets and currencies, investments in ADRs continue to be subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in derivatives such as futures, options, and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Futures Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Options Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relate to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause net asset value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Financial Sector Risk – Performance of companies in the financial sector may be adversely impacted by higher borrower default rates, changes in interest rates, leverage, and increased government regulation.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The Fund also may invest in depositary receipts, including ADRs, which are traded on exchanges and provide an alternative to investing directly in foreign securities. Investments in ADRs are subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies. These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. Consequently, the Fund may fail to participate in advantageous market returns.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Lower Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets, primarily through a fund-of-funds approach, in securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds.” Junk bonds may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

MLP Risk – Investments in MLPs involve risks different from those of investing in common stock including risks related to limited control and limited rights to vote on matters affecting the MLP, cash flow risks, dilution risks and risks related to the general partner’s limited call right. MLPs are generally considered interest-rate sensitive investments. During periods of interest rate volatility, these investments may not provide attractive returns. Many MLPs are focused on energy-related business and are subject to energy sector risks, such as decline in the price of petroleum.

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.

REIT Risk – A REIT’s performance depends on the types and locations of the properties it owns and on how well it manages those properties. Real estate values rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, including local, regional, and national economic conditions, interest rates and tax considerations.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies and Pooled Investment Vehicles – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, (ETFs and mutual funds) and pooled investment vehicles may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or pooled investment vehicle, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or, pooled investment vehicles, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or pooled investment vehicles, fail to achieve their investment objective, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs, mutual funds, and pooled investment vehicles will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs and mutual funds “ “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF shares may potentially trade at a discount or a premium to NAV and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk – Investing in the securities of small-capitalization (less than $2 billion) and mid-capitalization ($2 to $5 billion) companies involves greater risks and the possibility of greater price volatility than investing in larger capitalization and more-established companies. Investments in mid-cap companies involve less risk than investing in small-cap companies. Smaller companies may have limited operating history, product lines, and financial resources, and the securities of these companies may lack sufficient market liquidity. Mid-cap companies often have narrower markets and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies.

Tracking NASDAQ 100 Index Risk – The Fund may use ETFs that are not directly benchmarked to the NASDAQ 100 Index but use a different weighting or rebalancing scheme of the NASDAQ 100 component stocks or are active ETFs in nature. Combined with the short-medium fixed income strategy and the fixed income/equity income strategy, the portfolio daily return of the Fund may not match the NYSE calculated Self-adjusting Trend Following Strategy Index even after the difference of Fund expenses is considered.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for each full calendar year since the Fund’s inception. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares over time to the performance of a broad-based market index. You should be aware that the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Advisor Class shares have similar annual returns to Investor Class shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, however, the returns for Advisor Class shares are lower than Investor Class shares because Advisor Class shares have higher expenses. Shareholder reports containing financial and performance information for the Fund will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually. Updated performance information is available at no cost by calling toll-free 1-855-64-QUANT (1-855-647-8268).

You may purchase or redeem Fund shares by written request via mail (Quantified STF Fund, c/o Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC, P.O. Box 541150, Omaha, Nebraska 68154), by wire transfer, by telephone toll-free at 1-855-64-QUANT (1-855-647-8268), or through a financial intermediary. Purchases and redemptions by telephone are only permitted if you previously established these options on your account. The Fund accepts investments in the following minimum amounts:

However, these dividend and capital gain distributions may be taxable upon their eventual withdrawal from tax-deferred plans.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries: If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services.

Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Quantified Tactical Fixed Income Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Tactical Fixed Income Fund (the “Fund”) seeks total return.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 14% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for directly issued fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments, and indirect fixed income instruments such as mutual funds that invest primarily in debt instruments.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in fixed income securities. The Fund defines fixed income securities as debt instruments, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds that invest primarily in debt instruments, futures and swap contracts on debt instruments and pooled investment vehicles that invest primarily in the preceding. The Fund invests in ETFs, mutual funds and pooled investment vehicles that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. The Fund invests primarily in US government debt and high-yield debt (commonly known as “junk bonds”), directly or through ETFs, mutual funds and pooled investment vehicles. The Fund also uses futures contracts and swaps on US government debt and high-yield debt as substitutes for debt instruments. The Fund invests in fixed income securities without any restriction on maturity or credit quality. The Fund may gain long or short exposure to fixed income securities by using inverse and/or leveraged ETFs and mutual funds (without restriction), regardless of whether they generate income or dividends. Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund employs inverse and short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets.

The Subadviser seeks interest income from debt instruments. Additionally, the Subadviser seeks capital gains by changing asset allocations between long positions in US government debt and high-yield debt as well as by utilizing short position exposure to US government debt. The Subadviser uses an aggressive tactical management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. The Subadviser employs three investment models, which are driven by sub-strategies, to allocate assets and select long and short exposures. The sub-strategies are chosen and rebalanced quarterly using the Subadviser’s allocation algorithm to create a portfolio that aims for a balance of high return, low correlation, and low volatility. The Subadviser monitors the sub-strategies and may trade daily.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures and swaps include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers all derivatives and non-U.S. Treasury debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, investments in derivatives such as futures and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives currently are subject to the following risks:

Futures Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. If the Fund uses futures as hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relates to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Financial Sector Risk – Performance of companies in the financial sector may be adversely impacted by higher borrower default rates, changes in interest rates, leverage, and increased government regulation.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Inverse Risk – Inverse positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification, and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leveraged instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time.

Lower-Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund will invest a significant portion of its assets in securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds.” Junk bonds may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies and Pooled Investment Vehicles – Investments in the securities of other investment companies (ETFs and mutual funds) and pooled investment vehicles may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or pooled investment vehicle, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or pooled investment vehicles, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or pooled investment vehicles fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs, mutual funds, and pooled investment vehicles will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs and mutual funds “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium to NAV and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund.

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.

Quantified Evolution Plus Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Evolution Plus Fund (the “Fund”) seeks capital appreciation.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 329% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments.

The Subadviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by allocating assets, without restriction, among a wide variety of asset classes. The Subadviser’s asset allocation focuses primarily on the following categories:

The Subadviser may invest directly in securities representing an asset class or may invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds that invest primarily in an asset class, or in futures or swaps linked to an asset class. The Fund uses futures and swaps as a substitute hedge for the reference asset. The Fund invests in ETFs and mutual funds that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. To the extent the Fund invests in stocks of foreign corporations, the Fund’s investment in such stocks may be in the form of depositary receipts or other securities convertible into securities of foreign issuers, including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). The Fund may also invest to gain indirect exposure to Bitcoin,

through Bitcoin futures contracts and shares of Bitcoin-Linked funds such as Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust. The Fund limits investment in Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust shares to 15% of total assets but does not limit Bitcoin-linked ETFs and mutual funds. Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust is a Delaware statutory trust that holds Bitcoin and issues common units of fractional undivided beneficial interest (shares) that are exchange traded.

The Subadviser’s proprietary evolution strategy considers four factors to rank asset classes and adjust the position size of securities and other investment vehicles to generate a portfolio allocation. The ranking factors for each asset class are:

The Subadviser anticipates investing primarily in equities during periods of strong equity performance, while investing in other asset classes when equities suffer. The Subadviser seeks to manage risk by using leveraged index funds and swap contracts to maintain a leveraged position. During periods of financial uncertainty or distress, the Subadviser allocates the majority of Fund assets to short term, fixed income investments. The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser, which typically results in high portfolio turnover.

The Fund will invest up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with exposure to certain instruments within the limitations of the federal tax requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Subsidiary will invest primarily in gold, or commodity, and Bitcoin related securities and derivatives. The Fund’s investments will be composed primarily of securities, even when viewing the Subsidiary on a consolidated basis. The Subsidiary, when viewed from a consolidated basis, is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Fund. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer country or capitalization; or maturity or credit quality of debt instruments.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, that is, inverse and leveraged instruments and derivatives that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of swaps include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Bitcoin Risk – Bitcoin may experience very high volatility and related investment vehicles may be affected by such volatility. As a cryptocurrency, Bitcoin operates without central authority and is not backed by any government. Federal, state or foreign governments may restrict the use and exchange of Bitcoin, and regulation in the U.S. is still developing. Increased regulation might tend to depress the price of Bitcoin. Cryptocurrency exchanges may stop operating or permanently shut down due to fraud, technical glitches, hackers or malware. Bitcoin Transactions are irrevocable and stolen or incorrectly transferred Bitcoins may be irretrievable. AS a result, any incorrectly executed Bitcoin transactions could adversely affect the value of the Fund’s investment in the Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust. Shares of Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust may trade at a premium or discount to the NAV of the Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust. Historically, Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust has traded at a significant premium or discount. Bitcoin futures-related funds are subject to imperfect correlation between Bitcoin futures and Bitcoins, as well as futures liquidity risk. There may not be a liquid market for Bitcoin futures contracts.

Commodity Risk – The investments in companies involved in commodity-related businesses may be subject to greater volatility than investments in companies involved in more traditional businesses. The value of companies in commodity-related businesses may be affected by overall market movements and other factors affecting the value of a particular industry or commodity, such as weather, disease, embargoes, or political and regulatory developments.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance.

Depositary Receipt Risk – To the extent the Fund invests in stocks of foreign corporations, the Fund’s investment in such stocks may also be in the form of depositary receipts or other securities convertible into securities of foreign issuers, including ADRs. While the use of ADRs, which are traded on exchanges and represent an ownership in a foreign security, provide an alternative to directly purchasing the underlying foreign securities in their respective national markets and currencies, investments in ADRs continue to be subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, investments in derivatives such as swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Futures Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. If the Fund uses futures as a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relate to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause net asset value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Financial Sector Risk – Performance of companies in the financial sector may be adversely impacted by higher borrower default rates, changes in interest rates, leverage, and increased government regulation.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The Fund also may invest in depositary receipts, including ADRs, which are traded on exchanges and provide an alternative to investing directly in foreign securities. Investments in ADRs are subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies. These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S.

Gold Risk – The price of Gold may be volatile, and Gold bullion-related Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”) and derivatives may be highly sensitive to the price of Gold. The price of Gold bullion can be significantly affected by international monetary and political developments such as currency devaluation or revaluation, central bank movements, economic and social conditions within a country, transactional or trade imbalances, or trade or currency restrictions between countries. Physical Gold bullion has sales commission, storage, insurance and auditing expenses.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification, and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leveraged instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time.

Lower Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds.” Junk bonds may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, (ETFs and mutual funds) may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs and mutual funds will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs and mutual funds “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium to NAV and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk – Investing in the securities of small-capitalization (less than $2 billion) and mid-capitalization ($2 to $5 billion) companies involves greater risks and the possibility of greater price volatility than investing in larger capitalization and more-established companies. Investments in mid-cap companies involve less risk than investing in small-cap companies. Smaller companies may have limited operating history, product lines, and financial resources, and the securities of these companies may lack sufficient market liquidity. Mid-cap companies often have narrower markets and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies.

Taxation Risk – By investing in certain instruments indirectly through the Subsidiary, the Fund will obtain exposure to these markets within the federal tax requirements that apply to the Fund. However, because the Subsidiary is a controlled foreign corporation, any income received from its investments will be passed through to the Fund as ordinary income, which may be taxed at less favorable rates than capital gains.

Wholly Owned Subsidiary Risk – Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, under which the Fund and the Subsidiary, respectively, are organized, could result in the inability of the Fund and/or Subsidiary to operate as described in this Prospectus and could negatively affect the Fund and its shareholders. The Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, as amended, and, unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act, such as limits on leverage when viewed in isolation from the Fund.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for each full calendar year since the Fund’s Investor Class Shares inception. The Adviser Class Shares of the Fund have not commenced operations. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares over time to the performance of a broad-based market index. You should be aware that the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Advisor Class shares will have similar annual returns to Investor Class shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, however, the returns for Advisor Class shares are lower than Investor Class shares because Advisor Class shares have higher expenses. Shareholder reports containing financial and performance information for the Fund will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually. Updated performance information is available at no cost by calling toll-free 1-855-64-QUANT (1-855-647-8268).

However, these dividend and capital gain distributions may be taxable upon their eventual withdrawal from tax-deferred plans.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries: If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies 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.

Quantified Common Ground Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Common Ground Fund (the “Fund”) seeks total return.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 860% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments.

The Fund invests primarily in common stocks and bonds of issuers that the Subadviser considers compliant with both ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) and BRI (Biblically Responsible Investing) standards. The universe of issuers is composed of those in the S&P 1500 Index that remain after application of both the ESG and the BRI filters. Environmental criteria consider how a company performs as a steward of nature. Social criteria examine how a company manages relationships with employees, suppliers, customers and the communities where it operates. Governance deals with a company’s leadership, executive pay, audits, internal controls and shareholder rights. BRI standards screen out companies with products or services that conflict with biblical principles. For example, this screen removes tobacco, alcohol, or gambling companies.

The Subadvisor may also use ESG and BRI exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds to execute its strategy. The Fund invests in ETFs and mutual funds that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. In addition, the Subadviser may use tactical allocation methodologies to hedge or leverage the beta exposure to the S&P 1500 Index. Beta is a numeric value that measures the fluctuations of a stock to changes in the overall stock market. This methodology may result in as much as a 100% hedged position or a 200% beta exposure, in part through leveraged ETFs and mutual funds and swaps. The Fund may also use borrowing to leverage the portfolio and manage cash flows. During periods of financial uncertainty or distress, the Subadviser allocates Fund assets to short term, fixed income investments. The Subadviser seeks income from dividends on common stocks and interest from debt instruments while seeking capital gains by changing asset allocations between stocks and debt, based on expected returns. The Subadviser uses an aggressive tactical management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover.

The Fund invests without restriction as to asset class, issuer capitalization or the credit quality or maturity of debt instruments. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of securities.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment ESG and BRI strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective. ESG and BRI filters may limit the Fund’s investment opportunities when compared to unrestricted funds.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of swaps include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers all derivatives and non-U.S. Treasury debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, investments in swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relates to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leveraged instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments and borrowing may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. Borrowing will reduce returns by interest expense and other fees. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time.

Lower Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds.” Junk bonds may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Non-Diversification Risk – The Fund is non-diversified, which means it invests a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of securities. A non-diversified fund’s NAVs and total returns may fluctuate more or fall greater in times of weaker markets than a diversified mutual fund.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, (ETFs and mutual funds) may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs and mutual funds will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs and mutual funds “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium to NAV and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk – Investing in the securities of small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies involves greater risks and the possibility of greater price volatility than investing in larger capitalization and more-established companies. Investments in mid-cap companies involve less risk than investing in small-cap companies. Smaller companies may have limited operating history, product lines, and financial resources, and the securities of these companies may lack sufficient market liquidity. Mid-cap companies often have narrower markets and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for each full calendar year since the Fund’s Investor Class Shares inception. The Adviser Class Shares of the Fund have not commenced operations. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares over time to the performance of a broad-based market index. You should be aware that the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Advisor Class shares will have similar annual returns to Investor Class shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, however, the returns for Advisor Class shares are lower than Investor Class shares because Advisor Class shares have higher expenses. Shareholder reports containing financial and performance information for the Fund will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Quantified Pattern Recognition Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Pattern Recognition Fund (the “Fund”) seeks capital appreciation.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 135% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for any fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments.

The Fund primarily invests in equity index mutual funds, unaffiliated equity index exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), futures contracts, equity index swaps and cash equivalents. The Fund invests in ETFs and mutual funds that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. The Subadviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by identifying daily patterns in stock indexes or sectors within stock market indexes that it has found to be determinative of probable future price direction. The Subadviser believes securities markets reflect human emotions and that investors adopt patterns of behavior in response to those emotions. The Subadviser’s strategy seeks out high probability, repeatable patterns in the stock market to identify periods to buy, buy with leverage, or go short the market. This strategy seeks to take advantage of the tendency for equity prices to revert to the mean or follow a current price trend. The Subadvisor utilizes a proprietary methodology to allocate Fund assets among specific securities to best take advantage of patterns found.

When the Subadviser believes market conditions are favorable, it invests in mutual funds, leveraged mutual funds, futures contracts, and swaps to produce exposure to the stock market equivalent to up to 200% of Fund assets. 200% exposure means the Subadvisor seeks to earn $2 for every $1 in overall stock market profit. When the Subadviser believes market conditions are unfavorable, it invests in cash equivalents, inverse equity index mutual funds and ETFs, and/or shorts S&P 500^® Index futures contracts. The Subadviser uses an aggressive tactical management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective. Determination of a pattern based on historical analysis may not be indicative of future results.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and swaps include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include futures contracts and swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, investments in derivatives such as futures and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Futures Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relate to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Financial Sector Risk – Performance of companies in the financial sector may be adversely impacted by higher borrower default rates, changes in interest rates, leverage, and increased government regulation.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leveraged instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, (ETFs and mutual funds) may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs and mutual funds will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs and mutual funds “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium to NAV and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Quantified Tactical Sectors Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Tactical Sectors Fund (the “Fund”) seeks high appreciation on an annual basis consistent with a high tolerance for risk.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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. For the fiscal year ended to June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 1,130% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to a subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments. The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser using a tactical strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. Tactical asset allocation is an active portfolio management strategy that shifts the percentage of assets held in various sectors to seek to take advantage of what the Subadviser believes are the strongest market sectors. The Fund invests primarily in equity securities (common and preferred stocks) either directly through individual stocks or indirectly through exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and other investment companies. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization. Investments in ETFs and other investment companies provide the Fund exposure to equity sectors. Leveraged ETFs may also be used. The Fund may also invest in leveraging instruments: futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements to amplify returns or enhance liquidity.

The Subadviser believes that market leader sectors offer the potential for above-average returns. The Subadviser usually refers to the S&P Dow Jones Indices Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS^®) for sector and sub-sector definitions. The Subadviser defines a market leader sector as an equity (common or preferred) sector or sub-sector that has the highest price momentum (compared to all other sectors). The Subadviser measures sector price momentum

using the rate of change of the price of an ETF that is representative of the sector. Representative ETFs are index ETFs or ETFs that invest primarily in a sector or subsector of the measured sector. Sector representative ETFs are chosen based upon purity of sector exposure (highest percentage invested in a sector), lowest expense ratio, and liquidity. Representative ETFs are expected to remain relatively consistent but may be changed if an ETF became illiquid. Additionally, broad equity market exposure may be utilized in times of sector weakness. Among representative ETFs, the Subadviser selects those with the highest price momentum. The Subadviser may evaluate all sectors and individual equity securities as often as daily based on rankings, but it may reallocate less often in order to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. The Subadviser’s ranking strategy attempts to respond to both the performance of each equity security, as well as the performance of the equity market.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which the Fund invests a minimum holding period, typically one month, and allocation weighting based on its proprietary policies and procedures. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings for the Fund. However, the non-core holdings of the Fund may produce high turnover.

The Subadviser utilizes at least two risk mitigation tactics. First, the Subadviser assesses the overall equity market environment. It does so by using a proprietary analysis technique that is both top-down and algorithm-based. Secondly, the Subadvisor assesses the overall performance of each investment held. It does so by using a proprietary bottom-up timing model to evaluate performance. These tactics are used for the purpose of determining both when to reduce the Fund’s exposure to an investment and when to apply leverage to the investment holding. The Subadviser also uses these tactics to implement its dynamic tactical asset allocation strategy which, at any time for defensive purposes, may result in a large portion or all of the Fund’s assets invested, directly or indirectly, in cash and/or cash equivalents in order to seek to provide security of principal, current income and liquidity. A part of the Subadviser’s strategy is to hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other equity mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s momentum-based investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective. Determination of market leader status based on historical analysis may not be predictive of future leadership status.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and options include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers all derivatives and non-U.S. Treasury debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in derivatives such as futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives currently are subject to the following risks:

Futures and Forward Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. Forward transactions include the risks associated with fluctuations in the reference asset.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Options Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective.

Swap Agreement Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relates to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions in money market funds when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leveraged instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions, and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

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.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies (including ETFs) – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or ETF, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or ETFs, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or ETFs fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. In addition, ETF shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of other investment company or ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Sector Risk – The Fund may focus its investments in securities of a particular sector. Economic, legislative, or regulatory developments may occur that significantly affect the sector. This may cause the Fund’s NAV to fluctuate more than that of a fund that does not focus in a particular sector.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk – Investing in the securities of small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies involves greater risks and the possibility of greater price volatility than investing in larger capitalization and more-established companies. Investments in mid-cap companies involve less risk than investing in small-cap companies. Smaller companies may have limited operating history, product lines, and financial resources, and the securities of these companies may lack sufficient market liquidity. Mid-cap companies often have narrower markets and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies.

Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Quantified Government Income Tactical Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Government Income Tactical Fund (the “Fund”) seeks high total return consistent with a moderate tolerance for risk.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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. For the fiscal period year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 86% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in U.S. government securities. The Fund defines U.S. government securities as debt instruments issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, any agency, instrumentality, or sponsored enterprise of the U.S. government and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), closed-end funds and mutual funds that invest primarily in the preceding debt instruments, and futures and swap contracts on the preceding instruments; and pooled investment vehicles that invest primarily in the preceding. The ETFs, closed-end funds and mutual funds aspect of the Fund’s strategy is commonly referred to as a fund-of-funds strategy. Additionally, under normal circumstances, the Fund invests primarily in income-producing securities. The Fund invests in securities of any maturity. The Fund may gain exposure to securities by using inverse and/or leveraging instruments (leveraged ETFs, futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swap agreements) as substitutes for the refence asset regardless of whether they generate income. The Subadviser may employ short positions for hedging purposes, to capture returns in down markets, or to take advantage of short-term trading opportunities. The Subadviser employs an aggressive management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. As part of its principal investment strategy, the Fund may invest all or part of the Fund’s assets in short-term and ultrashort-term ETFs.

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a tactical dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various fixed-income investments and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. In making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser utilizes proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events. The Subadviser may use short positions to provide a hedge against rising rates and to take advantage of short-term trading opportunities. When the Subadviser believes U.S. Government interest rates are highly likely to rise or fall, it uses leverage to magnify the effects of the short-term moves. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term to intermediate-term performance of each potential and current portfolio investment and then invests in those securities that best fit the percentage allocations deemed beneficial by the Subadviser’s multiple proprietary algorithms.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which the Fund invests a minimum holding period, though an investment’s actual holding period and allocation weighting will depend on its performance ranking. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund. The Subadviser generally evaluates all investments weekly based on its allocation rankings but may reallocate more-or-less often to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the Subadviser’s investment analysis.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other fixed income mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains. Short-term capital gains are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income, which is at a higher rate than long-term capital gains. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and options include potentially dramatic price changes (gains or losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in derivatives such as futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives currently are subject to the following risks:

Futures and Forward Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. Forward currency transactions include the risks associated with fluctuations in currency.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Options Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relates to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions, and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies and Pooled Investment Vehicles – Investments in the securities of other investment companies(ETFs, closed-end funds, and mutual funds) and pooled investment vehicles may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or pooled investment vehicle, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or pooled investment vehicles, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or pooled investment vehicles fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

ETFs and mutual funds “reset” daily and, therefore, due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF and closed-end fund shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium to NAV and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of ETF and closed-end fund shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Leveraged ETFs Risk. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, closed-end investment company and ETF shares may potentially trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of other investment company or ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

U.S. Government Securities Risk – U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. However, securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund.

However, these dividend and capital gain distributions may be taxable upon their eventual withdrawal from tax-deferred plans.

Quantified Rising Dividend Tactical Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Rising Dividend Tactical Fund (the “Fund”) seeks total return consistent with a moderate tolerance for risk.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 173% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Subadviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for any fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), closed-end funds and mutual funds (together “Underlying Funds”) and stocks that pay a dividend. The ETFs, closed-end funds and mutual funds aspect of the Fund’s strategy is commonly referred to as a fund-of-funds strategy. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization or country of the securities held directly or by Underlying Funds. However, the Fund anticipates investing primarily in domestic and foreign large-cap and mid-cap equities, directly or through Underlying Funds. To a lesser extent, the Fund may invest in Underlying Funds that invest primarily in investment grade fixed income securities of any maturity. The Subadvisor seeks to identify stocks and Underlying Funds with the largest dividend increases or above average expected increases in dividends.

The Subadviser also employs a tactical dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various dividend paying investments and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio.

Leveraged and/or inverse ETFs may also be used. The Fund also may invest in leveraging instruments: futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swap agreements as substitutes for the refence asset, as well as take short positions with up to 80% of its assets in equity securities, futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements. The Fund employs short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets. The Subadviser uses a number of proprietary risk-management indicators in an effort to attempt to mitigate major bear market declines (20% or greater). The primary risk-management indicator utilized tracks the performance and trend of investments daily and signals when to sell an asset and/or hedge the portfolio from potential market declines. The Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the Subadviser’s investment analysis.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Subadviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other equity mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Subadviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Subadviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Subadviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Subadviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective. Determination of leadership status based on historical analysis may not be predictive of future leadership status.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains. Short-term capital gains are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income, which is at a higher rate than long-term capital gains. The Subadviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques that may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of futures contracts and options include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. These financial instruments may include swap agreements. The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers all derivatives and non-U.S. Treasury debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Futures and Forward Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. Forward currency transactions include the risks associated with fluctuations in currency.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Options Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relate to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic, or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies. These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Recently, interest rates have been historically low. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions, and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies (including ETFs) – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or ETF, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or ETFs, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or ETFs fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Leveraged ETFs Risk. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, closed-end investment company and ETF shares may potentially trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of other investment company or ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Subadviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk – Investing in the securities of small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies involves greater risks and the possibility of greater price volatility than investing in larger capitalization and more-established companies. Investments in mid-cap companies involve less risk than investing in small-cap companies. Smaller companies may have limited operating history, product lines, and financial resources, and the securities of these companies may lack sufficient market liquidity. Mid-cap companies often have narrower markets and more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies.

Performance: The bar chart and performance table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for each full calendar year since the Fund’s Investor Class Shares inception. The Adviser Class Shares of the Fund have not commenced operations. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares over time to the performance of a broad-based market index. You should be aware that the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Advisor Class shares have similar annual returns to Investor Class shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, however, the returns for Advisor Class shares are lower than Investor Class shares because Advisor Class shares have higher expenses. Shareholder reports containing financial and performance information for the Fund will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually.

Quantified Global Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Global Fund (the “Fund”) seeks total return.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. For the period from November 29, 2023 (commencement of operations through June 30, 2024, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 524% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Sub-Adviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 40% of its assets in securities of foreign issuers from at least three foreign countries. The Fund typically invests in foreign issuers through American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), futures contracts, and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) that primarily invest in foreign issuers. The Fund defines a foreign issuer as one organized or having its principal place of business outside the U.S.; or doing a majority of its business outside the U.S., as measured by assets, revenue or profits. Investments in ETFs, futures contracts, and exchange traded notes (“ETNs”) based on non-U.S. market indices are considered investments outside the U.S. for purposes of the 40% requirement noted above. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization, country, currency, or the credit quality or maturity of debt securities. Debt securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds.”

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Sub-Adviser employs a dynamic, tactical strategy. The Sub-Adviser anticipates investing primarily in equities during periods when it believes the equity investments will have strong performance, while investing in debt when it believes equities will suffer. The Sub-Adviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various country, region and sector investments to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Sub-Adviser evaluates opportunities using its proprietary algorithms.

The Sub-Adviser’s proprietary algorithms consider a wide array of factors to rank asset classes and adjust the position size of securities and other investment vehicles to generate a portfolio allocation. The ranking factors for each asset class can include:

The algorithms use daily price data updates, at least quarterly fundamental corporate or economic data, and allocations are updated by the algorithm at least monthly. The Fund is aggressively managed by the Sub-Adviser through frequent changes to asset allocation, which is expected to result in high portfolio turnover substantially over 100%.

In addition, the Sub-Adviser may use tactical allocation methodologies to hedge or leverage the beta exposure to global markets. Beta is a numeric value that measures the fluctuations of a stock to changes in the overall stock market. A beta greater than 1.0 suggests that the stock is more volatile than the broader market, and a beta less than 1.0 indicates a stock with lower volatility. This methodology may result in as much as a 100% hedged position or a 200% beta exposure, in part through futures, leveraged ETFs, and swaps. To hedge the Sub-Adviser uses short-position instruments to offset the expected market risk of the Fund’s portfolio. The Sub-Adviser selects swap counterparties it believes to be creditworthy and will close out a swap position if it believes the counterparty is no longer creditworthy. The Fund may also use borrowing to leverage the portfolio and manage cash flows.

During periods that the Sub-Adviser believes present financial uncertainty or distress, the Sub-Adviser allocates all or a portion of Fund assets to inverse equity investments (such as inverse ETFs, short futures positions, or short swap positions), fixed income investments, and/or assets considered safe havens, i.e., cash equivalents. The Sub-Adviser seeks the income aspect of total return from dividends on common stocks and interest from debt instruments, while seeking the capital gains aspect of total return by changing asset allocations among stocks and between stocks and debt, based on expected returns. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of securities.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Sub-Adviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in securities and derivative financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.

Sub-Adviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Sub-Adviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Sub-Adviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Sub-Adviser’s investment strategy and proprietary algorithms will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective. The Sub-Adviser’s algorithms may lose their predictive accuracy.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Sub-Adviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including derivatives, which may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of leveraged ETFs, futures, and swaps include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and swaps and futures may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers swaps and debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Depositary Receipt Risk – The use of ADRs, which are traded on exchanges and represent an ownership in a foreign security, provide an alternative to directly purchasing the underlying foreign securities in their respective national markets and currencies, investments in ADRs continue to be subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in publicly issued equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including common stocks, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate. 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.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities can involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic, or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies.

Emerging Market Risk – These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S. Emerging market countries may have different regulatory, accounting, auditing, and financial reporting and record keeping standards and may have material limitations on Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) inspection, investigation, and enforcement.

Futures Contracts Risk – There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts. Futures may be an imperfect substitute for a security or index. Foreign futures markets may offer fewer investor protections than domestic futures.

Holding Cash Risk – The Fund may hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest. There is a risk that the sections of the market in which the Fund invests will begin to rise or fall rapidly and the Fund will not be able to sell stocks quickly enough to avoid losses or reinvest its cash positions into areas of the advancing market quickly enough to capture the initial returns of changing market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Inverse Risk – Inverse positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional investments. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Limited History of Operations Risk – The Fund that has a limited history of operations for investors to evaluate. The Fund may fail to attract sufficient assets to operate efficiently.

Lower-Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds.” Junk bonds may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional, or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political, or social disruptions; natural, environmental, or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions, and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Non-Diversification Risk – As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of one or more issuers. The Fund also invests in ETFs that are non-diversified. The Fund’s performance may be more sensitive to any single economic, business, political or regulatory occurrence than the value of shares of a diversified investment company.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies (including ETFs) – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, closed-end investment company and ETF shares may potentially trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Because the value of other investment companies or ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, the Adviser may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk – Investing in the securities of small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies involves greater risks and the possibility of greater price volatility than investing in larger capitalization and more-established companies. Investments in mid-cap companies involve less risk than investing in small-cap companies. Both types of companies may have limited operating history, product lines, managerial and financial resources, and the securities of these companies may lack sufficient market liquidity. These risks are more pronounced in small-cap companies.

Swap Agreements Risk – The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Turnover Risk – A higher portfolio turnover may result in higher transactional and brokerage costs. The Sub-Adviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover. The Fund’s turnover rate is expected to be substantially above 100% annually.

Performance: Because the Fund has less than a full calendar year of investment operations, no performance information is presented for the Fund at this time. In the future, performance information will be presented in this section of the Prospectus. Also, shareholder reports containing financial and performance information will be mailed or made available to shareholders semi-annually. Updated performance information and daily net asset value per share (NAV) is available at no cost by calling toll-free 1-855-64-QUANT (1-855-647-8268).

Quantified Eckhardt Managed Futures Strategy Fund

Investment Objective: The Quantified Eckhardt Managed Futures Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) seeks total return.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund: 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 Examples below.

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 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 upon these assumptions your costs would be:

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 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.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Sub-Adviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments.

The Sub-Adviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by allocating its assets using two principal strategies:

The Managed Futures Strategy is designed to produce capital appreciation by capturing returns related to price trends in the commodity futures markets and financial futures markets by investing primarily in securities of commodity pools that employ trend-based strategies. A commodity pool is an investment vehicle where investors combine their money to have a manager trade in futures contracts. The Sub-Adviser selects commodity pools without restriction as to the country, currency or futures instruments held by a commodity pool; and considers expenses, past performance and management tenure when selecting commodity pools. The Sub-Adviser anticipates allocating Managed Futures Strategy assets primarily to commodity pools that are sponsored by the Eckhardt Trading Company. Eckhardt Trading Company is independent of the Fund, the Adviser and Sub-Adviser. The commodity pools’ investments are drawn from over 60 exchange-traded futures contacts and consists of exposure to three sectors: (1) commodities (agriculture, energy, and metals), (2) financials (debt and equity), and (3) currencies.

Certain key constituents of the futures market that are expected to be used by the commodity pools are as follows.

The components may be positioned either long or short based on their short-term and medium-term price trends or such other indicators used by the futures manager of the respective commodity pool.

The Fixed Income Strategy focuses on generating income and providing liquidity by selecting debt instruments, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), mutual funds, debt futures-focused commodity pools that each invest primarily in debt instruments and debt futures; as well as by selecting debt futures and total return swap contracts on debt instruments including ETFs and mutual funds that invest primarily in debt instruments. The Fund invests in ETFs, mutual funds, and debt futures-focused commodity pools that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Sub-Adviser. The Fund uses futures contracts, swaps, and debt futures-focused commodity pools as substitutes for debt instruments, when the Sub-Adviser determines they are more economically efficient. The underlying income-producing securities in which the Fund invests primarily include: (i) U.S. government securities, (ii) corporate debt obligations (including convertible bonds, (iii) foreign debt securities (including emerging markets), (iv) asset-backed securities (“ABS”), and (v) mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”). The Fund invests without any restriction on maturity or credit quality, including in high-yield debt (commonly known as “junk bonds”). The Fund may gain long or short exposure to debt instruments by using inverse and/or leveraged ETFs and mutual funds, debt futures-focused commodity pools, and swaps; regardless of whether they generate income. Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund employs inverse and short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets.

The Sub-Adviser seeks interest income from debt instruments. Additionally, the Sub-Adviser seeks capital gains by changing asset allocations between debt sectors as well as by utilizing short position exposure. The Sub-Adviser uses a tactical management strategy that factors in inherent leverage in investment instruments and this tactical approach typically results in high portfolio turnover. Tactical investing requires making frequent adjustments to the asset allocation based on market conditions and opportunities. The Sub-Adviser monitors allocations frequently and may trade daily. The Sub-Adviser anticipates that, based upon its analysis of long-term historical returns and volatility of various asset classes, the Fund will allocate approximately 25% of its assets to the Managed Futures Strategy and approximately 75% of its assets to the Fixed Income Strategy. As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of one or more issuers.

The Fund invests up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with indirect exposure to certain futures contracts within the limitations of the federal tax requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Subsidiary will invest primarily in commodity pools. The Subsidiary, when viewed from a consolidated basis, is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Fund.

Principal Investment Risks: An investment in the Fund entails risks. The Fund could lose money, or its performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Sub-Adviser nor the Adviser can guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. In addition, the Fund presents some risks not traditionally associated with other mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in securities and derivative financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund. The following risks apply to the Fund directly or indirectly through its investments in other funds or pooled investment vehicles.

Sub-Adviser’s Investment Strategy Risk – While the Sub-Adviser seeks to take advantage of investment opportunities for the Fund that will maximize its investment returns, there is no guarantee that such opportunities will ultimately benefit the Fund. The Sub-Adviser will aggressively change the Fund’s portfolio in response to market conditions that are unpredictable and may expose the Fund to greater market risk than other mutual funds. There is no assurance that the Sub-Adviser’s investment strategy will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Active and Frequent Trading Risk – The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading, leading to increased portfolio turnover, higher transaction costs, and the possibility of increased net realized capital gains, including net short-term capital gains that will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income when distributed to them. The Sub-Adviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover. The Sub-Adviser may buy and sell shares of the Fund for its other clients, which will require the Fund to increase and decrease its portfolio holdings, respectively.

Aggressive Investment Techniques Risk – The Fund uses investment techniques, including derivatives, which may be considered aggressive. Risks associated with the use of leveraged ETFs, futures, and swaps include potentially dramatic price changes (losses) in the value of the instruments and imperfect correlations between the price of the contract and the underlying security or index. These instruments may increase the volatility of the Fund and swaps and futures may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed.

Asset-Backed Securities Risk – Payment of interest and repayment of principal may be impacted by the cash flows generated by the assets backing these securities. The value of the Fund’s asset-backed securities also may be affected by changes in interest rates, the availability of information concerning the interests in and structure of the pools of purchase contracts, financing leases or sales agreements that are represented by these securities, the creditworthiness of the servicing agent for the pool, the originator of the loans or receivables, or the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, or other credit enhancements.

Commodity Risk – Investments in commodity-related instruments may be subject to greater volatility than investments in companies involved in more traditional businesses. The value of commodity-related instruments may be affected by overall market movements and other factors affecting the value of a particular industry or commodity, such as weather, disease, embargoes, or political and regulatory developments.

Convertible Bond Risk – Convertible bonds are hybrid securities that have characteristics of both bonds and common stocks and are subject to fixed income security risks and conversion value-related equity risk.

Counterparty Risk – The Fund may invest in financial instruments involving counterparties for the purpose of attempting to gain exposure to a particular group of securities or asset class without actually purchasing those securities or investments, or to hedge a position. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Credit Risk – The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt security goes bankrupt or is unable or unwilling to make interest payments and/or repay principal. The value of a debt security may decline if there are concerns about an issuer’s ability or willingness to make interest and or principal payments. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on Fund performance. The Fund considers swaps and debt instruments as subject to credit risk.

Derivatives Risk Generally – The Fund uses investment techniques, including investments in derivatives such as futures contracts and swaps, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in such derivatives are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time and may increase the volatility of the Fund. The use of derivatives may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk and the risk that the derivatives may become illiquid. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. In addition, the Fund’s investments in derivatives are currently subject to the following risks:

Futures Contracts Risk. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in the market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid market for the futures contracts.

Hedging Risk. If the Fund uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges the market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might be unsuccessful, reduce the Fund’s investment return, or create a loss.

Swap Agreements Risk. Interest rate swaps are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Total return swaps are subject to counterparty risk, which relate to the credit risk of the counterparty and liquidity risk of the swaps themselves.

Equity Securities Risk – Investments in equity securities and securities that provide exposure to equity securities, including indexes, in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities or indexes in which the Fund invests will cause the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of the Fund to fluctuate.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities and securities that provide exposure to foreign securities can involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Fund’s returns and NAVs may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic, or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws and accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards in foreign countries typically are not as strict as they are in the U.S., and there may be less public information available about foreign companies.

Emerging Market Risk – These risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries, which are generally those with per capita income less than half that of the U.S. Emerging market countries may have different regulatory, accounting, auditing, and financial reporting and record keeping standards and may have material limitations on Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) inspection, investigation, and enforcement.

Futures Risk – Futures are subject to inherent leverage that magnifies Fund losses. Futures may not provide an effective substitute for their reference asset or index because changes in futures prices may not track those of the underlying reference asset or index.

Currency Futures Risk: Foreign currency contracts subject the Fund to currency trading risks that include market risk and country risk. Market risk results from adverse changes in exchange rates. Country risk arises because a government may interfere with transactions in its currency.

Debt Futures Risk: Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of debt futures. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the debt futures held by the Fund.

Equity Futures Risk: Equity futures are subject to general market risks and may not track the equity indices for which they are intended to serve as substitutes.

Energy Futures Risk: Energy prices may be adversely affected by fluctuating commodity prices, weather, increased conservation or use of alternative fuel sources, increased governmental or environmental regulation, depletion, rising interest rates, declines in domestic or foreign production, accidents or catastrophic events, and economic conditions.

Metals Futures Risk: Precious and industrial metals prices may be susceptible to financial, economic, political or market events, as well as government regulation, impacting the production costs of these metals. Precious metal prices may become volatile when they serve as a substitute for currencies.

Agriculture Commodity Futures Risk: Investing in the commodities markets through futures may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. Commodity prices may be influenced by unfavorable weather, animal and plant disease, geologic and environmental factors as well as changes in government regulation such as tariffs, embargoes or burdensome production rules and restrictions.

Interest Rate Risk – The value of the Fund’s investment in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The effect of increased interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate-term or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the Fund. Current conditions may result in a rise in interest rates, which in turn may result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Fund. As a result, for the present, interest rate risk may be heightened.

Leverage Risk – The Fund may use leveraged investments that attempt to amplify the price movement of underlying securities or indices on a daily or other periodic basis, which may be considered aggressive. Such instruments may experience potentially dramatic price changes (losses), imperfect amplification and imperfect correlations between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index which will increase the volatility of the Fund and may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk assumed. The use of leverage instruments may currently expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of leveraged instruments may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Limited History of Operations Risk – The Fund has a limited history of operations for investors to evaluate. The Fund may fail to attract sufficient assets to operate efficiently.

Lower-Quality Debt Securities Risk – The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in securities rated below investment grade or “junk bonds.” Junk bonds may be sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to a company. These securities are considered speculative and generally involve greater risk of default or price changes than other types of fixed-income securities and the Fund’s performance may vary significantly as a result.

Market Risk – Overall investment market risks affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the US and international investment markets. Additionally, unexpected local, regional, or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political, or social disruptions; natural, environmental, or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as the global pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions, and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Non-Diversification Risk – As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of one or more issuers. The Fund may also invest in ETFs that are non-diversified. The Fund’s performance may be more sensitive to any single economic, business, political or regulatory occurrence than the value of shares of a diversified investment company.

Prepayment Risk and Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk – Many types of debt securities, including mortgage securities, are subject to prepayment risk. Prepayment occurs when the issuer of a security can repay principal prior to the security’s maturity. Securities subject to prepayment can offer less potential for gains during a declining interest rate environment and similar or greater potential for loss in a rising interest rate environment. In addition, the potential impact of prepayment features on the price of a debt security can be difficult to predict and result in greater volatility. As a result, the Fund may have to reinvest its assets in mortgage securities or other debt securities that have lower yields.

Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies and Commodity Pools – Investments in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, and commodity pools may involve duplication of advisory fees and certain other expenses. By investing in another investment company or commodity pool, the Fund becomes a shareholder thereof. As a result, Fund shareholders indirectly bear the Fund’s proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by shareholders of the other investment companies or commodity pools, in addition to the fees and expenses Fund shareholders indirectly bear in connection with the Fund’s own operations. If the other investment companies or commodity pools fail to achieve their investment objectives, the value of the Fund’s investment will decline, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Leveraged ETFs will amplify gains and losses. Most leveraged ETFs “reset” daily. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. In addition, ETF shares potentially may trade at a discount or a premium and are subject to brokerage and other trading costs, which could result in greater expenses to the Fund. Finally, because the value of other investment company or commodity pool shares depends on the demand in the market, the Fund may not be able to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in those shares at the most optimal time, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance.

Shorting (Inverse) Risk – Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund will lose value if and when the instrument’s price rises – a result that is the opposite from traditional mutual funds. The Fund may also utilize inverse mutual funds and ETFs. These instruments seek to increase in value when their underlying securities or indices decline. Like leveraged investments, inverse positions may be considered aggressive. Inverse positions may also be leveraged. Such instruments may experience imperfect negative correlation between the price of the investment and the underlying security or index. The use of inverse instruments may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested only in “long” positions.

Swap Agreements Risk – The use of swap agreements involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. For example, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Swap agreements also may be considered to be illiquid. In addition, the Fund may enter into swap agreements that involve a limited number of counterparties, which may increase the Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk. The Fund does not specifically limit its counterparty risk with respect to any single counterparty. Further, there is a risk that no suitable counterparties are willing to enter into, or continue to enter into, transactions with the Fund and, as a result, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.

Taxation Risk – By investing in certain instruments indirectly through the Subsidiary, the Fund will obtain exposure to these markets within the Federal tax requirements that apply to the Fund. However, because the Subsidiary is a controlled foreign corporation, any income received from its investments will be through to the Fund as ordinary income, which may be taxed at less favorable rates than capital gains.

Turnover Risk – A higher portfolio turnover may result in higher transactional and brokerage costs. The Sub-Adviser’s use of the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients will increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover. The Fund’s turnover rate is expected to be above 100% annually.

U.S. Government Securities Risk – U.S. Treasury obligations are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government and generally have negligible credit risk. However, securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The Fund may be subject to such risk to the extent it invests in securities issued or guaranteed by federal agencies or authorities and U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities or enterprises.

Wholly Owned Subsidiary Risk – Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, under which the Fund and the Subsidiary, respectively, are organized, could result in the inability of the Fund and/or Subsidiary to operate as described in this Prospectus and could negatively affect the Fund and its shareholders. The Subsidiary is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended, and unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act, such as limits on leverage when viewed in isolation from the Fund.

Performance: Because the Fund has less than a full calendar year of investment operations, no performance information is presented for the Fund at this time. In the future, performance information will be presented in this section of the Prospectus. Also, shareholder reports containing financial and performance information will be mailed or made available to shareholders semi-annually. Updated performance information and daily net asset value per share (NAV) is available at no cost by calling toll-free 1-855-64-QUANT (1-855-647-8268).

Investment Adviser: Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”)

Sub-Adviser: Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (the “Sub-Adviser”)

Sub-Adviser Portfolio Managers: Jerry C. Wagner, President of the Sub-Adviser; Timothy Hanna, CFA, CFIP, Senior Portfolio Manager of the Sub-Adviser; and Daniel Poppe, CFA, Senior Research Analyst of the Sub-Adviser have served the Fund as its portfolio managers since it commenced operations in 2024.

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares : The investment minimums for the Fund are:

The Fund, Adviser or Sub-Adviser may waive any investment minimum. You may purchase and redeem shares of the Fund on any day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Redemption requests may be made in writing, by telephone, or through a financial intermediary and will be paid by ACH, check, or wire transfer. Purchase and redemptions requests must be received by the Fund (or an authorized broker or agent, or its authorized designee) before the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) to assure ample time to transmit to the Fund prior to NAV pricing.

Tax Information: Dividends and capital gain distributions you receive from the Fund, whether you reinvest your distributions in additional Fund shares or receive them in cash, are taxable to you at either ordinary income or capital gains tax rates unless you are investing through a tax-deferred plan such as an IRA or 401(k) Plan. However, these dividend and capital gain distributions may be taxable upon their eventual withdrawal from tax-deferred plans.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries: If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies 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.

Principal Investment Strategies

Quantified Managed Income Fund

The Quantified Managed Income Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser. The Fund invests primarily in income-producing securities. The Fund does so indirectly through exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), other closed-end and open-end investment companies that themselves primarily invest in income-producing securities. The underlying income--producing securities to which the Fund seeks to gain exposure primarily include U.S. government securities, corporate debt obligations, foreign debt securities (including emerging markets), and bonds in the lowest credit rating category, also called “junk bonds,” convertible bonds, preferred stocks, common stocks, master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), and real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). The Fund may also invest directly in these types of securities. The underlying income-producing securities in which the Fund seeks to gain exposure include:

The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various fixed-income securities and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Subadviser may position the Fund’s portfolio to seek exposure to a variety of credit categories, which could range from government securities to junk bonds. The Fund is not limited in its exposure to junk bonds, which may include bonds in the lowest credit rating category. In addition, the Fund invests in fixed-income securities without any restriction on maturity. The Subadviser may also invest up to 80% of the Fund’s assets in short positions in fixed-income securities and derivatives.

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various fixed-income investments and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term to intermediate-term performance of each investment and invests in those securities that best fit the percentage allocations deemed beneficial by the Subadviser’s multiple proprietary algorithms.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which it invests a minimum holding period, though an investment’s actual holding period and allocation weighting will depend on its performance ranking. The allocation weightings will likely not be changed for a period longer than the assigned holding period. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund. The Subadviser generally evaluates all investments weekly based on its allocation rankings but may reallocate more or less often to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment analysis.

Finally, in making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser may utilize proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events.

The Subadviser will also create and rank an investment representing cash and/or cash equivalents (“cash investment”). As part of its principal investment strategy the Subadviser may invest in short-term and ultra-short-term bond ETFs. For temporary defensive purposes, the Subadviser may invest the Fund’s assets in cash or cash equivalents. As a result, up to 100% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in cash or cash equivalents at any given time for temporary defensive purposes. To earn income on available cash, a large portion or all of the assets of the Fund may be invested in high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated short-term obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities and repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by such obligations. As a result of investing in cash and cash equivalents, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

Quantified Market Leaders Fund

The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser. The Fund will typically invest primarily in equity (common and preferred stocks) or fixed income securities either directly through individual stocks and ADRs securities that trade in the U.S. financial markets representing a security of a non-U.S. company) or indirectly through ETFs and other investment companies. Investments in ETFs and other investment companies, including leveraged and/or inverse ETFs, may provide the Fund exposure to equity, income, sectors, subsectors, domestic, and international positions, including positions relating to companies with small (less than $2 billion) and/or medium ($2 to $5 billion) market capitalization. The Fund may also invest in futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swap agreements, as well as take short positions with up to 80% of its assets in equity securities, futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements. The Fund employs an aggressive management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover.

The Subadviser defines a market leader as an asset class that has the highest price momentum (such as mid-cap equity compared to all equities). The Subadviser measures asset class price momentum by reference to an ETF that is representative of the asset class. Among representative ETFs, the Subadviser selects those with the highest price momentum, when compared to other ETFs in the asset class. In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy. In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various market indexes to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term total return performance of each market index and usually invests the Fund’s assets in the top-performing equity securities within the top-ranked market indexes in accordance with Subadviser and third-party algorithms. The Subadviser may evaluate all indexes and individual equity securities as often as daily based on rankings, but it may reallocate less often in order to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. The Subadviser’s ranking strategy attempts to respond to both the performance of each equity security, as well as the performance of the market indices.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which it invests a minimum holding period, though the actual holding period and allocation weighting will depend on the performance ranking. The allocation weighting will likely not be changed for a period longer than the assigned holding period. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment analysis.

Finally, in making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser may utilize proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price and volatility patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events. The Subadviser also uses these proprietary and third-party analysis models to implement its dynamic asset allocation strategy which, at any time for defensive purposes, may result in a large portion or all of the fund’s assets invested, directly or indirectly, in investment grade fixed income securities, cash and/or cash equivalents in order to seek to provide security of principal, current income and liquidity.

Quantified Alternative Investment Fund

The Quantified Alternative Investment Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser. The Fund will invest primarily in securities, including dividend-paying equities or interest-bearing fixed income securities, having a low or negative correlation with the S&P 500^® Index, such as instruments linked to commodities, economic sectors, international issuers, currencies, the cryptocurrency Bitcoin, or those with structures expected to produce a low or negative correlation with the S&P ® Index (collectively, “alternative securities”) or indirectly through securities that invest in or are a derivative of alternative securities. The Fund does not make direct investments in Bitcoin. The term “Alternative Investment” in the Fund’s name refers to the non-traditional types of equity (other than S&P 500^® Index highly correlated common stocks) and debt securities in which the Fund may invest and to which the Fund may gain exposure through investments in ETFs, open-end mutual funds and other investment companies. The Fund may also use borrowing to leverage the portfolio and manage cash flows. The Fund may also invest in futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swaps. The underlying alternative (those having a low or negative expected correlation with the S&P 500^® Index or non-traditional structure) securities in which the Fund seeks to gain exposure include:

In addition, alternative securities include common stocks, ETFs, Unit Investment Trusts (“UITs”) and open-end and closed-end investment companies. Investments in ETFs, UITs and investment companies may include those investing (passively or actively) in equity, income, sectors, domestic, international, currency, inverse and/or leveraged positions and alternative investments, including non-principal positions relating to companies with small (less than $2 billion) or medium ($2 to $5 billion) market capitalization. The Fund may also invest to gain indirect exposure to Bitcoin, through Bitcoin futures contracts and shares of Bitcoin-linked funds such as Grayscale^® Bitcoin Trust, ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF, and other SEC-registered Bitcoin-linked ETFs (together “Bitcoin-linked funds”). The Fund limits investment in Bitcoin-related instruments to 25% of net assets. For purposes of this 25% limit, security investments are measured at market value and futures at notion value, respectively. The Fund limits Bitcoin futures to those that are cash-settled, exchange traded and regulated by the CFTC (“Bitcoin futures”). As of the date of this prospectus, only CME Bitcoin futures comply with these restrictions. Bitcoin-linked funds and Bitcoin futures are collectedly referred to as “Bitcoin-related instruments. Grayscale^® Bitcoin Trust is a Delaware statutory trust that holds Bitcoin and issues common units of fractional undivided beneficial interest (shares) that are exchange-traded. The Fund employs an aggressive management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. As part of its principal investment strategy the Fund may invest significantly in cash and/or cash equivalents.

The Fund will invest up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with indirect exposure to certain instruments such as Bitcoin futures within the limitations of the federal tax requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Subsidiary will invest primarily in commodities and Bitcoin-related instruments. The Fund’s investments will be composed primarily of securities, even when viewing the Subsidiary on a consolidated basis. The Subsidiary, when viewed from a consolidated basis, is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Fund. Specifically, the Subsidiary will comply with the 25% Bitcoin limits described above, when viewed on a consolidated basis with the Fund.

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various alternative securities and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term to intermediate-term performance of each investment and invests in those securities that best fit the percentage allocations deemed beneficial by the Subadviser’s multiple proprietary algorithms.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which it invests a minimum holding period, though an investment’s actual holding period and allocation weighting will depend on its performance ranking. The allocation weightings will likely not be changed for a period longer than the assigned holding period. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund. The Subadviser generally evaluates all investments daily based on its allocation rankings but may reallocate less often to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment analysis.

Finally, in making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser may utilize proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events. The Subadviser also uses these proprietary analysis models to implement its dynamic asset allocation strategy which, at any time, may result in a large portion or all of the fund’s assets invested, directly or indirectly, in investment grade fixed income securities, cash and/or cash equivalents in order to seek to achieve its investment objective as well as provide security of principal, current income and liquidity.

Subsidiary

The Subsidiary will invest primarily in commodities, and Bitcoin related securities and derivatives. The Subsidiary is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Fund, when viewed on a consolidated basis. Specifically, the Subsidiary will comply with the 25% Bitcoin limits described above, when viewed on a consolidated basis with the Fund. By investing in commodities and Bitcoin related instruments indirectly through the Subsidiary, the Fund will obtain exposure to these markets within the federal tax requirements that apply to the Fund. Specifically, the Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with exposure to the commodities and Bitcoin related markets within the limitations of the Code. Subchapter M requires, among other things, that at least 90% of the Fund’s income be derived from securities or derived with respect to its business of investing in securities (typically referred to as “qualifying income”). Income from certain of the commodity or Bitcoin related instruments in which the Fund invests will not be treated as “qualifying income” for purposes of the 90% income requirement. The Fund may also make investments in certain commodity or Bitcoin related instruments through the Subsidiary because income from these would not otherwise be treated as “qualifying income” for purposes of the 90% income.

Because the Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in the Subsidiary, which may hold some of the investments described in this Prospectus, the Fund may be considered to be investing indirectly in some of those investments through its Subsidiary. For that reason, references to the Fund may also include the Subsidiary. The Subsidiary is subject to the same investment restrictions and limitations on a consolidated basis and follows the same compliance policies and procedures as the Fund. Specifically, the Subsidiary will comply with the 25% Bitcoin limits described above, when viewed on a consolidated basis with the Fund. The Fund and the Subsidiary are “commodity pools” under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, and the Adviser is a “commodity pool operator” registered with and regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). As a result, additional CFTC-mandated disclosure, reporting, and recordkeeping obligations apply with respect to the Fund and the Subsidiary

Quantified STF Fund

The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the Subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Subadviser”). The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser, which typically results in high portfolio turnover. The Subadviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective using three interrelated principal asset allocations, driven primarily by the Subadviser’s proprietary Self-Adjusting Trend Following Strategy (“STF Strategy”).

Self-Adjusting Trend Following Strategy

The STF Strategy is used to allocate Fund assets between long and short equity-related and long fixed income-related investments. This strategy monitors the price trends of the NASDAQ 100 Index to assess market conditions. The NASDAQ 100 Index includes 100 of the largest domestic and international non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market based on market capitalization. The Index reflects companies across major industry groups including, among others, computer hardware and software, telecommunications, retail/wholesale trade and biotechnology.

The proprietary price-based rules can involve index prices at daily market close, and moving average values of daily close prices, including but not limited to 3-day, 5-day, 10-day, 50-day and 200-day moving averages, as well as day-to-day changes of one or more of these moving averages, and the slope of the moving averages. The STF Strategy follows easily identifiable market trends, with a rule set that seeks to take advantage of both up and down market trends. Since the market risk exposure of the STF Strategy is solely based on the price action of the NASDAQ 100 Index, the STF Strategy aims to out-perform the NASDAQ 100 Index over the long term with less downside risk.

Since April of 2014, the Subadviser has contracted with NYSE Group, Inc. to compute a Self-Adjusting Trend Following Strategy Index on a daily basis that reflects trading mutual funds with the strategy. This index can be used as an active benchmark for comparison to the daily Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of shares of the Fund.

The rule set of the STF Strategy specifies the conditions under which it makes the following position changes based on the NASDAQ 100 Index price history:

The STF Strategy adjusts overall Fund market risk exposure relative to the NASDAQ 100 Index at four discrete levels, defined by proprietary market trend measures, and according to a NASDAQ 100 Index price-based proprietary rule set:

Short to Medium-Term Fixed Income Allocation

The Fund will invest directly in short- to medium-term fixed income securities. The portion of the Fund invested in short- to medium-term fixed income securities will be greatest when the STF Strategy finds no obvious market trend. The Subadviser’s security selection decisions are driven by liquidity, rating and time to maturity. This portion of the Fund’s portfolio is constructed in order to mitigate interest rate and credit risk while optimizing income, and will involve primarily investment in securities: cash, cash equivalents, and upper medium investment grade to prime investment grade, short-term debt securities and money market instruments.

Fixed Income/Equity Income Allocation

The Fund will also invest in income-producing securities. The portion of the Fund invested in income-producing securities will be greatest when the STF Strategy finds no obvious market trend. The Fund does so indirectly through ETFs, other closed-end and open-end investment companies that themselves primarily invest in income-producing securities. The underlying income-producing securities in which the Fund primarily seeks to gain exposure:

Subadvisor may also utilize its proprietary Targeted Volatility Analysis (TVA) in conjunction with the use of the two income allocations to seek to target a level of volatility (based on historical standard deviation measures) for the Fund during any of the Fund’s four levels of market risk exposure. The Fund may supplement its exposure to equity markets other than the NASDAQ 100 index through an investment in pooled investment vehicles that focus on other equity segments such as the S&P 500.

The Fund invests without restriction as to issue capitalization, country, credit quality or the maturity of a security. The Adviser selects swap counterparties that it believes are creditworthy based on credit rating and financial strength. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the preceding investment strategy analysis.

The Fund is a “commodity pool” under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, and the Adviser is a “commodity pool operator” registered with and regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). As a result, additional CFTC-mandated disclosure, reporting and recordkeeping obligations apply to the Fund.

Quantified Tactical Fixed Income Fund

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in fixed income securities. The Fund defines fixed income securities as debt instruments, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds that invest primarily in debt instruments; futures and swap contracts on debt instruments; and pooled commodities that invest primarily in the preceding. The Fund invests in ETFs, mutual funds and commodity pools that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. The Fund invests primarily in US government debt and high-yield debt, directly or through ETFs, mutual funds, . The Fund also uses futures contracts and swaps on US government debt and high-yield debt as substitutes for debt instruments, and commodity pools . The Fund invests in fixed income securities without any restriction on maturity or credit quality. The Fund may gain long or short exposure to fixed income securities by using inverse and/or leveraged ETFs and mutual funds (without restriction), regardless of whether they generate income or dividends. Inverse ETFs and mutual funds are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities or indices. Leveraged ETFs and mutual funds are designed to produce returns that are a multiple of particular securities or indices. The Fund employs inverse and short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets.

The Subadviser seeks interest income from debt instruments. Additionally, the Subadviser seeks capital gains by investing in long positions in US government debt and high-yield debt as well as by utilizing short position exposure to US government debt. The Subadviser uses an aggressive tactical management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. The Subadviser employs three investment models, which are driven by sub-strategies, to allocate assets and select long and short exposures. The sub-strategies are chosen and rebalanced quarterly using the Subadviser’s minimum-correlation algorithm to create a portfolio that aims for a balance of high return, low correlation, and low volatility. The Subadviser evaluates the sub-strategies daily.

Investment Model 1: Long/Short Tactical

This model is based on three sub-strategies: econometric, seasonality, and pattern based. The econometric strategy focuses on comparing historical bond yield and spread regimes. The seasonality and pattern-based strategies focus on investment opportunities created by periodic bond supply and demand imbalances and price volatility.

Investment Model 2: Opportunistic Long-Only

This model contains two sub-strategies. The first analysis is the relationship between various commodities’ performance and the yield of US government bonds. The second focuses on recent high-yield bond performance to determine the favorability of government bonds as an alternative.

Investment Model 3: Tactical High Yield

This model uses two sub-strategies that focus on historical US government bond price momentum and related buying signals and regime long-only buying signals. When not allocated to high-yield debt, each sub-strategy uses government debt or money market instruments. The momentum sub-strategy uses a yearly walk-forward analysis (yearly re-optimization of the parameters used in the methodology) to determine the optimal momentum method to trade high-yield debt. Walk-forward analysis is the process of optimizing a trading system using a limited in-sample data set and then testing the results on out-of-sample data. The high-yield regime strategy is based on bond regimes that have historically resulted in favorable high-yield debt returns.

Quantified Evolution Plus Fund

The Subadviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by allocating assets, without restriction, among a wide variety of asset classes. The Subadviser’s asset allocation focuses primarily on the following categories:

The Subadviser may invest directly in securities representing an asset class or may invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds that invest primarily in an asset class, or in futures or swaps linked to an asset class. The Fund uses futures and swaps as a substitute hedge for the reference asset. The Fund invests in ETFs and mutual funds that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. To the extent the Fund invests in stocks of foreign corporations, the Fund’s investment in such stocks may also be in the form of depositary receipts or other securities convertible into securities of foreign issuers, including ADRs. The Fund does not make direct investments in Bitcoin. The Fund may also invest to gain indirect exposure to Bitcoin, through Bitcoin futures contracts Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust, ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF, and other SEC-registered Bitcoin-linked ETFs (together “Bitcoin linked funds”) The Fund limits investment in Bitcoin futures to those that are cash-settled, exchange-traded and regulated by the CFTC (“Bitcoin futures”). As of the date of this prospectus, only CME Bitcoin futures comply with these restrictions. Bitcoin-linked funds and Bitcoin futures are collectively referred to as “Bitcoin-related instructions”. Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust is a Delaware statutory trust that holds Bitcoin and issues common units of fractional undivided beneficial interest (shares) that are exchange-traded.

The Subadviser’s proprietary evolution strategy considers four factors to rank asset classes and adjust the position size of securities and other investment vehicles to generate a portfolio allocation. The ranking factors for each asset class are:

The Subadviser anticipates investing primarily in equities during periods of strong equity performance, while investing in other asset classes when equities suffer. The Subadviser seeks to manage risk by using leveraged index funds and swap contracts to maintain a leveraged position. During periods of financial uncertainty or distress, the Subadviser allocates the majority of Fund assets to short term, fixed income investments. The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser, which typically results in high portfolio turnover.

Subsidiary

The Subsidiary will invest primarily in gold, commodities, and Bitcoin related securities and derivatives. The Subsidiary is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Fund, when viewed on a consolidated basis. Specifically, the Subsidiary will comply with the 25% Bitcoin limits described above, when viewed on a consolidated basis with the Fund. By investing in gold, commodities, and Bitcoin related instruments indirectly through the Subsidiary, the Fund will obtain exposure to these markets within the federal tax requirements that apply to the Fund. Specifically, the Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with exposure to the gold, commodities, and Bitcoin related markets within the limitations of the Code. Subchapter M requires, among other things, that at least 90% of the Fund’s income be derived from securities or derived with respect to its business of investing in securities (typically referred to as “qualifying income”). Income from certain of the gold or commodity related securities in which the Fund invests will not be treated as “qualifying income” for purposes of the 90% income requirement. Therefore, the Fund may also make investments in certain commodities or Bitcoin-related instruments through the Subsidiary because income from these would not otherwise be treated as “qualifying income” for purposes of the 90% income requirement.

Because the Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in the Subsidiary, which may hold some of the investments described in this Prospectus, the Fund may be considered to be investing indirectly in some of those investments through its Subsidiary. For that reason, references to the Fund may also include the Subsidiary. The Subsidiary is subject to the same investment restrictions and limitations on a consolidated basis and follows the same compliance policies and procedures as the Fund. Specifically, the Subsidiary will comply with the 25% Bitcoin limits described above, when viewed on a consolidated basis with the Fund. The Fund and the Subsidiary are “commodity pools” under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, and the Adviser is a “commodity pool operator” registered with and regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). As a result, additional CFTC-mandated disclosure, reporting and recordkeeping obligations apply with respect to the Fund and the Subsidiary.

Quantified Common Ground Fund

The Fund invests primarily in common stocks and bonds of issuers that the Subadviser considers compliant with both ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) and BRI (Biblically Responsible Investing) standards. The universe of issuers is composed of those in the S&P 1500 Index that remain after application of both the ESG and the BRI filters.

Generally, environmental criteria consider how a company performs as a steward of nature. Environmental criteria may include a company’s energy use, waste, pollution, natural resource conservation and treatment of animals. Generally, social criteria look at a company’s business relationships. Social criteria examine factors such as how a company manages relationships with employees, suppliers, customers and the communities where it operates. Generally, governance deals with a company’s leadership, executive pay, audits, internal controls and shareholder rights. With regard to governance, factors may include using accurate and transparent accounting methods, assuring that stockholders are given an opportunity to vote on important issues; assurances that companies avoid conflicts of interest in their choice of board members, do not use political contributions to obtain unduly favorable treatment and, do not engage in illegal practices.

Generally, biblically responsible investing standards screen out companies with products or services that conflict with biblical principles. For example, this screen removes tobacco, alcohol or gambling companies. These principles include respecting the value and freedom of all people and a concern for justice and peace through fair and ethical relationships.

The Subadvisor may also use ESG and BRI ETFs and mutual funds to execute its strategy. The Fund invests in ETFs and mutual funds that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. In addition, the Subadviser may use tactical allocation methodologies to hedge or leverage the beta exposure to the S&P 1500 Index. Beta is a numeric value that measures the fluctuations of a stock to changes in the overall stock market. This methodology may result in as much as a 100% hedged position or a 200% beta exposure, in part through leveraged ETFs and mutual funds and swaps. Leveraged ETFs and mutual funds are designed to produce returns that are a multiple of particular securities or indices. The Fund may also use borrowing to leverage the portfolio and manage cash flows. During periods of financial uncertainty or distress, the Subadviser allocates Fund assets to short term, fixed income investments. The Subadviser seeks income from dividends on common stocks and interest from debt instruments while seeking capital gains by changing asset allocations between stocks and debt, based on expected returns. The Subadviser uses an aggressive tactical management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover.

The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization or the credit quality or maturity of debt instruments. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of securities.

Quantified Pattern Recognition Fund

The Fund primarily invests in equity index mutual funds, equity index ETFs, futures contracts, equity index swaps and cash equivalents. The Fund invests in ETFs and mutual funds that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Subadviser. The Subadviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by identifying daily patterns in stock market indexes or sectors within stock market indexes that it has found to be determinative of probable future price direction. The Subadviser believes securities markets reflect human emotions and that investors adopt patterns of behavior in response to those emotions. The Subadviser’s strategy seeks out high probability, repeatable patterns in the stock market to identify periods to buy, buy with leverage, or go short the market. This strategy seeks to take advantage of the tendency for equity prices to revert to the mean or follow a current price trend. The Subadvisor utilizes a proprietary methodology to allocate Fund assets among specific securities to best take advantage of patterns found.

When the Subadviser believes market conditions are favorable, it invests in mutual funds, leveraged mutual funds, futures contracts, and swaps to produce exposure to the stock market equivalent to up to 200% of Fund assets. 200% exposure means the Subadvisor seeks to earn $2 for every $1 in overall stock market profit. Leveraged mutual funds are designed to produce returns that are a multiple of particular securities or indices. When the Subadviser believes market conditions are unfavorable, it invests in cash equivalents, inverse equity index mutual funds and ETFs, and/or shorts S&P 500® Index futures contracts. Inverse ETFs and mutual funds are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities or indices. The Subadviser uses an aggressive tactical management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover.

Quantified Tactical Sectors Fund

The Fund is aggressively managed by the Subadviser using a tactical strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. Tactical asset allocation is an active portfolio management strategy that shifts the percentage of assets held in various sectors to seek to take advantage of what the Subadviser believes are the strongest market sectors. The Subadviser usually refers to the S&P Dow Jones Indices Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS^®) for sector definitions. The Fund invests primarily in equity securities (common and preferred stocks) either directly through individual stocks or indirectly through

ETFs and other investment companies. The Subadviser does not choose between common or preferred stock of individual issuers, but rather treats preferred stocks as an assets class. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization. Investments in ETFs and other investment companies provide the Fund exposure to equity sectors. Leveraged ETFs may also be used to amplify the returns of an allocation to a sector. The Fund may also invest in other leveraging instruments: futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements to amplify returns or enhance liquidity.

The Subadviser believes that, based on its proprietary research, market leader sectors offer the potential for above-average returns. The Subadviser defines a market leader sector as an equity (common or preferred) sector or sub-sector that has the highest price momentum (compared to all other sectors). The Subadviser measures sector price momentum using the rate of change of the price of an ETF that is representative of the sector. Representative ETFs are index ETFs or ETFs that invest primarily in a sector or a subsector of the sector for which the momentum is measured. Representative ETFs are chosen based upon purity of sector or subsector exposure (highest percentage invested in a sector or subsector), lowest expense ratio, and liquidity. Additionally, broad equity market exposure may be utilized in times of sector weakness. Representative ETFs are expected to remain relatively consistent but may be changed if, for example, an ETF becomes illiquid. Among representative ETFs, the Subadviser selects those with the highest price momentum. The Subadviser may evaluate all sectors, subsectors and individual equity securities as often as daily based on rankings, but it may re-allocate less often in order to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. The Subadviser’s ranking strategy attempts to allow it to respond to both the performance of each equity security, as well as the performance of the overall equity market.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which the Fund invests a minimum holding period, typically one month, and allocation weighting based on its proprietary policies and procedures. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings for the Fund. However, the non-core holdings of the Fund may produce high turnover.

The Subadviser utilizes at least two risk mitigation tactics. First, the Subadviser assesses the overall equity market environment. It does so by using a proprietary analysis technique that is both top-down and algorithm-based. Secondly, the Subadvisor assesses the overall performance of each investment held. It does so by using a proprietary bottom-up timing model to evaluate performance. These tactics are used for the purpose of determining both when to reduce the Fund’s exposure to an investment and when to apply leverage to the investment holding. The Subadviser also uses these tactics to implement its dynamic tactical asset allocation strategy which, at any time for defensive purposes, may result in a large portion or all of the Fund’s assets invested, directly or indirectly, in cash and/or cash equivalents in order to seek to provide security of principal, current income and liquidity. A part of the Subadviser’s strategy is to hold cash positions when the market is not producing returns greater than the short-term cash investments in which the Fund may invest.

Quantified Government Income Tactical Fund

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in U.S. government securities. The Fund defines U.S. government securities as debt instruments issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, any agency, instrumentality, or sponsored enterprise of the U.S. government and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), closed-end funds and mutual funds that invest primarily in the preceding debt instruments, and futures and swap contracts on the preceding instruments; and commodity pools that invest primarily in the preceding. The ETFs, closed-end funds and mutual funds aspect of the Fund’s strategy is commonly referred to as a fund-of-funds strategy. Additionally, under normal circumstances, the Fund invests primarily in income-producing securities. The Fund invests in securities of any maturity. The Fund may gain exposure to securities by using inverse and/or leveraging instruments (leveraged ETFs, futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swap agreements) as substitutes for the refence asset regardless of whether they generate income. The Subadviser may employ short positions for hedging purposes, to capture returns in down markets, or to take advantage of short-term trading opportunities. The Subadviser employs an aggressive management strategy that typically results in high portfolio turnover. As part of its principal investment strategy, the Fund may invest all or part of the Fund’s assets in short-term and ultrashort-term ETFs.

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Subadviser employs a tactical dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various fixed-income investments and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. In making the decision to invest in a security, long or short, the Subadviser utilizes proprietary and third-party analysis models that evaluate interest rate trends and other macroeconomic data, market momentum, price patterns and other technical data or data related to accounting periods, tax events and other calendar-related events. The Subadviser may use short positions to provide a hedge against rising rates and to take advantage of short-term trading opportunities. When the Subadviser believes U.S. Government interest rates are highly likely to rise or fall, it uses leverage to magnify the effects of the short-term moves. The Subadviser evaluates and ranks the short-term to intermediate-term performance of each potential and current portfolio investment and then invests in those securities that best fit the percentage allocations deemed beneficial by the Subadviser’s multiple proprietary algorithms.

The Subadviser typically assigns each investment in which the Fund invests a minimum holding period, though an investment’s actual holding period and allocation weighting will depend on its performance ranking. By establishing holding periods, the Subadviser seeks to maintain longer-term core holdings in the Fund. The Subadviser generally evaluates all investments weekly based on its allocation rankings but may reallocate more-or-less often to minimize the impact and costs associated with trading. In addition, the Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the Subadviser’s investment analysis.

Quantified Rising Dividend Tactical Fund

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), closed-end funds and mutual funds (together “Underlying Funds”) and stocks that pay a dividend. The ETFs, closed-end funds and mutual funds aspect of the Fund’s strategy is commonly referred to as a fund-of-funds strategy. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization or country of the securities held directly or by Underlying Funds. However, the Fund anticipates investing primarily in domestic and foreign large-cap and mid-cap equities, directly or through Underlying Funds. To a lesser extent, the Fund may invest in Underlying Funds that invest primarily in investment grade fixed income securities of any maturity. The Subadvisor seeks to identify stocks and Underlying Funds with the largest dividend increases or above average expected increases in dividends. The Subadviser also employs a tactical dynamic asset allocation strategy. The Subadviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various dividend paying investments and market sectors to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio.

Leveraged and/or inverse ETFs may also be used. The Fund also may invest in leveraging instruments: futures contracts, forward contracts, options, and swap agreements as substitutes for the refence asset, as well as take short positions with up to 80% of its assets in equity securities, futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swap agreements. The Fund employs short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets. The Subadviser uses a number of proprietary risk-management indicators in an effort to attempt to mitigate major bear market declines (20% or greater). The primary risk-management indicator utilized tracks the performance and trend of investments daily and signals when to sell an asset and/or hedge the portfolio from potential market declines.

The Subadviser uses the Fund as an asset allocation tool for its other clients, which may lead to purchases and redemptions of Fund shares. Responding to purchase and redemption-related fluctuations in the Fund’s size will result in portfolio turnover not directly related to the Subadviser’s investment analysis.

Quantified Global Fund

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 40% of its assets in securities of foreign issuers from at least three foreign countries. The Fund typically invests in foreign issuers through American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), futures contracts, and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) that primarily invest in foreign issuers. The Fund defines a foreign issuer as one organized or having its principal place of business outside the U.S.; or doing a majority of its business outside the U.S., as measured by assets, revenue or profits. Investments in ETFs, futures contracts, and exchange traded notes (“ETNs”) based on non-U.S. market indices are considered investments outside the U.S. for purposes of the 40% requirement noted above. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization, country, currency, or the credit quality or maturity of debt securities. Debt securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds.”

In managing the Fund’s assets, the Sub-Adviser employs a dynamic, tactical strategy. The Sub-Adviser anticipates investing primarily in equities during periods when it believes the equity investments will have strong performance, while investing in debt when it believes equities will suffer. The Sub-Adviser analyzes the overall investment opportunities of various country, region, and sector investments to determine how to position the Fund’s portfolio. The Sub-Adviser evaluates opportunities using its proprietary algorithms.

The Sub-Adviser’s proprietary algorithms consider a wide array of factors to rank asset classes and adjust the position size of securities and other investment vehicles to generate a portfolio allocation. The ranking factors for each asset class can include:

The algorithms use daily price data updates, at least quarterly fundamental corporate or economic data, and allocations are updated by the algorithm at least monthly. The Fund is aggressively managed by the Sub-Adviser through frequent changes to asset allocation, which is expected to result in high portfolio turnover substantially over 100%.

In addition, the Sub-Adviser may use tactical allocation methodologies to hedge or leverage the beta exposure to global markets. Beta is a numeric value that measures the fluctuations of a stock to changes in the overall stock market. A beta greater than 1.0 suggests that the stock is more volatile than the broader market, and a beta less than 1.0 indicates a stock with lower volatility. This methodology may result in as much as a 100% hedged position or a 200% beta exposure, in part through leveraged ETFs, futures, and swaps. To hedge the Sub-Adviser uses short-position instruments to offset the expected market risk of the Fund’s portfolio. The Sub-Adviser selects swap counterparties it believes to be creditworthy and will close out a swap position if it believes the counterparty is no longer creditworthy. The Fund may also use borrowing to leverage the portfolio and manage cash flows.

During periods that the Sub-Adviser believes present financial uncertainty or distress, the Sub-Adviser allocates all or a portion of Fund assets to inverse equity investments (such as inverse ETFs, short futures positions, or short swap positions), fixed income investments, and/or assets considered safe havens, i.e. cash equivalents. The Sub-Adviser seeks the income aspect of total return from dividends on common stocks and interest from debt instruments, while seeking the capital gains aspect of total return by changing asset allocations among stocks and between stocks and debt, based on expected returns. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of securities.

Quantified Eckhardt Managed Futures Strategy Fund

The Fund’s investment adviser, Advisors Preferred LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates execution of the Fund’s investment strategy to the subadviser, Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. (“FPI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Sub-Adviser selects investments for the Fund and provides trade placement for fixed income instruments, including cash equivalents. The Adviser provides trade placement for non-fixed income instruments.

The Sub-Adviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by allocating its assets using two principal strategies:

The Managed Futures Strategy is designed to produce capital appreciation by capturing returns related to price trends in the commodity futures markets and financial futures markets by investing primarily in securities of commodity pools that employ trend-based strategies. A commodity pool is an investment vehicle where investors combine their money to have a manager trade in futures contracts. The Sub-Adviser selects commodity pools without restriction as to the country, currency or futures instruments held by a commodity pool; and considers expenses, past performance and management tenure when selecting commodity pools. The Sub-Adviser anticipates allocating Managed Futures Strategy assets primarily to commodity pools that are sponsored by the Eckhardt Trading Company. Eckhardt Trading Company is independent of the Fund, the Adviser and Sub-Adviser. The commodity pools’ investments are drawn from over 60 exchange-traded futures contacts and consists of exposure to three sectors: (1) commodities (agriculture, energy, and metals), (2) financials (debt and equity), and (3) currencies.

Certain key constituents of the futures market that are expected to be used by the commodity pools are as follows.

The components may be positioned either long or short based on their short-term and medium-term price trends or such other indicators used by the futures manager of the respective commodity pool.

The Fixed Income Strategy focuses on generating income and providing liquidity by selecting debt instruments, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), mutual funds, debt futures-focused commodity pools that each invest primarily in debt instruments and debt futures; as well as by selecting debt futures and total return swap contracts on debt instruments including ETFs and mutual funds that invest primarily in debt instruments. The Fund invests in ETFs, mutual funds, and debt futures-focused commodity pools that are not affiliated with the Adviser or Sub-Adviser. The Fund uses futures contracts, swaps, and debt futures-focused commodity pools as substitutes for debt instruments, when the Sub-Adviser determines they are more economically efficient. The underlying income-producing securities in which the Fund invests

primarily include: (i) U.S. government securities, (ii) corporate debt obligations (including convertible bonds, (iii) foreign debt securities (including emerging markets), (iv) asset-backed securities (“ABS”), and (v) mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”). The Fund invests without any restriction on maturity or credit quality, including in high-yield debt (commonly known as “junk bonds”). The Fund may gain long or short exposure to debt instruments by using inverse and/or leveraged ETFs and mutual funds, debt futures-focused commodity pools, and swaps; regardless of whether they generate income. Short (inverse) positions are designed to profit from a decline in the price of particular securities, investments in securities or indices. The Fund employs inverse and short positions for hedging purposes or to capture returns in down markets.

The Sub-Adviser seeks interest income from debt instruments. Additionally, the Sub-Adviser seeks capital gains by changing asset allocations between debt sectors as well as by utilizing short position exposure. The Sub-Adviser uses a tactical management strategy that factors in inherent leverage in investment instruments and this tactical approach typically results in high portfolio turnover. Tactical investing requires making frequent adjustments to the asset allocation based on market conditions and opportunities. The Sub-Adviser monitors allocations frequently and may trade daily. The Sub-Adviser anticipates that, based upon its analysis of long-term historical returns and volatility of various asset classes, the Fund will allocate approximately 25% of its assets to the Managed Futures Strategy and approximately 75% of its assets to the Fixed Income Strategy. As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of one or more issuers.

The Fund invests up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with indirect exposure to certain futures contracts within the limitations of the federal tax requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Subsidiary will invest primarily in commodity pools. The Subsidiary, when viewed from a consolidated basis, is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Fund.

Principal Investment Risks

An investment in any of the Funds entails risk. The Funds could lose money, or their performance could trail that of other investment alternatives. Neither the Adviser nor Subadviser can guarantee that the Funds will achieve their objectives. In addition, the Funds present some risks not traditionally associated with most mutual funds. In addition, Quantified Managed Futures Strategy Fund present some risks not traditionally associated with other mutual funds. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Fund. Turbulence in securities and derivative financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and fixed income markets could negatively affect issuers worldwide, including the Fund. There is the risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund. It is important that investors closely review and understand these risks before making an investment in the Funds. The table below provides additional information regarding the risks of investing in the Funds. Following the table, each risk is explained.
