Investment Objective: The Brookstone Dividend Stock ETF (the "Fund") seeks to provide income and 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 example below.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses
(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Management Fees	0.65%
Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees	0.00%
Other Expenses	0.35%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	1.00%
Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement(1)	(0.05)%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement	0.95%

(1)

The Fund's adviser has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or absorb expenses of the Fund, until at least September 30, 2025, to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses after fee waiver and/or reimbursement (exclusive of any front-end or contingent deferred loads, brokerage fees and commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example option and swap fees and expenses), borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short), taxes, and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees, and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the adviser)) will not exceed 0.95% of the Fund's net assets. These fee waivers and expense reimbursements are subject to possible recoupment from the Fund in future years (within the three years from the date the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if such recoupment can be achieved within the lesser of the foregoing expense limits or those in place at the time of recapture after the recoupment is taken into account. This agreement may be terminated by the Trust's Board of Trustees only on 60 days' written notice to the Fund's adviser.

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

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then 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:

1 Year		3 Years		5 Years		10 Years
$97		$313		$548		$1,220

Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. During the fiscal period ended May 31, 2024, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 15% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund is an actively managed exchange traded fund ("ETF") that, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in income-producing, publicly-traded U.S. stocks or unaffiliated ETFs purchased in the secondary market. The adviser defines an income-producing U.S. stock or ETF to be a company or ETF that invests in companies that have a history of paying dividends, appears to have the ability to continue to pay dividends, or demonstrates a history of increasing their dividends. The adviser considers the investments of its underlying ETFs when determining compliance with the Fund's 80% policy. The adviser screens U.S. stocks of, and ETFs that invest in, mid-cap or larger companies with a minimum market capitalization of $2 billion and uses both external and internal research to review current dividend yield, expectations for the frequency and size of the dividend, company reputation, company growth, relevance to investors, and third-party financial ratings of potential investments. The Fund's portfolio is comprised of approximately 30 positions, inclusive of ETFs, that reflect a mix of high-quality dividend-oriented common or preferred stocks that are either priced below their fundamental fair value or are reasonably priced. Certain sectors do have more dividend paying stocks, so the Fund may have greater exposure to certain sectors than others. The adviser monitors the Fund's portfolio and may sell positions if they have exceeded their fundamental fair value expectations or due to adverse stock performance.

Principal Investment Risks:As with all funds, there is a risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") and performance. The following risks may apply to the Fund's direct investments as well as the Fund's indirect investments through ETFs.

The following describes the risks of investing in the Fund. As with any fund, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its goal.

Active Management Risk. The Fund is actively managed and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. Index based ETFs have generally traded at prices which closely correspond to NAV per share. Actively managed ETFs have a limited trading history and, therefore, there can be no assurance as to whether and/or the extent to which shares will trade at premiums or discounts to NAV. The adviser may be incorrect in its assessment of the intrinsic value of the securities the Fund holds which may result in a decline in the value of shares and failure to achieve its investment objective.

Dividend-Paying Stock Risk. While the Fund holds stocks of companies directly or through ETFs that have historically paid a high dividend yield, those companies may reduce or discontinue their dividends, reducing the yield of the Fund. Low priced stocks in the Fund may be more susceptible to these risks. Past dividend payments are not a guarantee of future dividend payments. Also, the market return of high dividend yield stocks, in certain market conditions, may perform worse than other investment strategies or the overall stock market. The Fund's emphasis on dividend-paying stocks involves the risk that such stocks may fall out of favor with investors and underperform the market. Also, a company may reduce or eliminate its dividend.

Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities are susceptible to general stock market fluctuations and to volatile increases and decreases in value. The equity securities held by a Fund may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors affecting securities markets generally, the equity securities of a particular sector, or a particular company.

ETF Investment Risk. Other investment companies, such as ETFs ("Underlying Funds"), in which the Fund invests are subject to investment advisory and other expenses, which will be indirectly paid by the Fund. As a result, the cost of investing in the Fund will be higher than the cost of investing directly in the Underlying Funds and may be higher than other funds that invest directly in stocks and bonds. Each of the Underlying Funds is subject to its own specific risks, but the adviser expects the principal investments risks of such Underlying Funds will be similar to the risks of investing in the Fund.

ETF Structure Risk. The Fund and each Underlying Fund are structured as ETFs and as a result the Fund is subject to special risks, including:

●

Not Individually Redeemable. The Fund's shares ("Shares") are not individually redeemable to retail investors and may be redeemed by the Fund only to an authorized participant at NAV in large blocks known as "Creation Units." An authorized participant may incur brokerage costs purchasing enough Shares to constitute a Creation Unit.

●	Trading Issues. An active trading market for the Shares may not be developed or maintained. Trading in shares on the Exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in view of the Exchange, make trading in Shares inadvisable, such as extraordinary market volatility.

●

Market Price Variance Risk. The market prices of Shares will fluctuate in response to changes in NAV and supply and demand for Shares and will include a "bid-ask spread" charged by the exchange specialists, market makers or other participants that trade the particular security. There may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. This means that Shares may trade at a discount to NAV.

○

In times of market stress, market makers may step away from their role market making in Shares and in executing trades, which can lead to differences between the market value of Shares and the Fund's NAV.

○

The market price for Shares may deviate from the Fund's NAV, particularly during times of market stress, with the result that investors may pay significantly more or significantly less for Shares than the Fund's NAV, which is reflected in the bid and ask price for Shares or in the closing price.

Fluctuation of NAV Risk. The NAV of Shares will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund's holdings. The market prices of Shares will generally fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV as well as the relative supply of and demand for Shares on the Exchange. The adviser cannot predict whether Shares will trade below, at, or above their NAV. Price differences may be due, in large part, to the fact that supply and demand forces at work in the secondary trading market for Shares will be closely related to, but not identical to, the same forces influencing the prices of the Fund's holdings trading individually or in the aggregate at any point in time.

Income Risk. The Fund's income may decline if the dividend yields of the companies it invests in fall. This decline can occur for a variety of ways including a portfolio company reducing or eliminating its stock dividend.

Limited History of Operations Risk. The Fund is a new ETF with a limited history of operations for investors to evaluate.

Market Risk. The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund's portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, supply chain disruptions, staff shortages, natural disasters, climate-change and climate-related events, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, international conflicts, regulatory events, and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on the U.S. financial market.

Mid- Cap Market Risk. Investing in securities of mid-capitalization companies involves greater risk than customarily is associated with investing in larger, more established companies. These companies' securities may be more volatile and less liquid than those of more established companies, and may have returns that vary, sometimes significantly, from the overall securities market. Mid-capitalization companies tend to have inexperienced management as well as limited product and market diversification and financial resources. Often mid-capitalization companies and the industries in which they focus are still evolving and, as a result, they may be more sensitive to changing market conditions.

Sector Exposure 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 net asset value to fluctuate more than that of a fund that does not focus in a particular sector.

Performance: Because the Fund has not yet been operational for a full calendar year, 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 information about the Fund will be mailed to shareholders semi-annually. Updated performance information is available at no cost by visiting www.brookstoneam.com or by calling toll-free 888-562-8880.

Investment Adviser: Brookstone Asset Management LLC (the "Adviser").

Portfolio Manager: The Fund's portfolio is managed by a team (the "Investment Committee") consisting of:

Mark W. DiOrio, CFA, Chief Investment Officer
Dean Zayed, LLM, CFP, Chief Executive Officer
Darryl Ronconi, President & Chief Operating Officer
Matt Lovett, Chief Compliance Officer
Alex Bobin, CFA, Director of Portfolio Strategy

Each member of the Investment Committee has been primarily and jointly responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund since its inception in September 2023.

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares: Individual Shares may be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through a broker dealer or at market price. Shares are listed for trading on the Exchange and trade at market prices rather than NAV. Shares may trade at a price that is greater than, at, or less than NAV. An investor may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase Shares (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for Shares (ask) when buying or selling Shares in the second market (the "bid-ask spread"). Information on the Fund's net asset value, market price, premiums and discounts and bid-asks spreads can be found on the Fund's website at www.brookstoneam.com.

Tax Information: The Fund's distributions are generally taxable as ordinary income or long-term capital gains. A sale of Shares may result in capital gain or loss.

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 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.
