Victory Capital Management Inc. (the "Adviser") has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual fund operating expenses (excluding certain items such as acquired fund fees and expenses, if any, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, capitalized expenses, and other extraordinary expenses) do not exceed an annual rate of 0.48%, 0.44%, 0.70%, 1.45%, and 0.40% of the Fund Shares, Institutional Shares, Class A, Class C, and Class R6, respectively, through at least August 31, 2025. The Adviser is permitted to recoup management fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund's Board of Trustees.

Victory Nasdaq-100 Index Fund Summary
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 sell or continue to hold 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. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. After eight years, Class C shares of the Fund generally will convert automatically to Class A shares of the Fund. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

Class R6

$368
Class C

$1,675
The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.

Class C
$148
$492

$1,675
The Example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.
Portfolio Turnover:
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when shares of the Fund are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. For the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 22% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategy
The Fund's principal investment strategy is, under normal market conditions, to invest at least 80% of the Fund's assets in the common stocks of companies composing the Index. This strategy may be changed upon 60 days' prior written notice to shareholders. The Index is an index composed of 100 of the largest nonfinancial domestic and international companies listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market based on market capitalization.
In seeking to track the performance of the Index, the Fund will normally invest in all the common stocks of companies in the Index in roughly the same proportions as their weightings in the index. While the Fund attempts to replicate the Index, there may be times when the Fund and the Index do not match exactly. At times, the Fund may purchase a stock not included in the Index when it believes doing so would be a cost-efficient way of approximating the Index's performance, for example, in anticipation of a stock being added to the Index. To the extent that the Index concentrates in the securities of a particular industry or group of industries, the Fund will similarly concentrate its investments. As of the date of this Prospectus, the Fund's investments are not concentrated in any industry or group of industries, although the Fund's investments are more focused in the technology sectors, consistent with the Index.

Victory Nasdaq-100 Index Fund Summary
The Fund is non-diversified and expects to hold a larger portion of its assets in a smaller number of issuers.
Principal Risks
The Fund's investments are subject to the following principal risks:
General Market Risk - Overall market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, terrorism, trade disputes, inflation rates, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, cybersecurity incidents, pandemics and
other public health crises, sanctions against a particular foreign country, its nationals, businesses
or industries, and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires, and floods, or other catastrophes may add to instability in global economies and markets generally and may lead to increased market volatility. Global economies and financial markets are highly interconnected, which increases the possibility that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.
Equity Securities Risk - The values of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general market, economic, and political conditions, and other factors. A company's earnings or dividends may not increase as expected due to poor management decisions, competitive pressures, breakthroughs in technology, reliance on suppliers, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, natural disasters, military confrontations, war, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions, and factors. Price changes may be temporary or may last for extended periods.
Foreign Securities Risk - Foreign markets can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments and can perform differently from the U.S. market. Global markets, or those in a particular region, may all react in similar fashion to important political, economic, or other developments. Events and evolving conditions in certain economies or markets may alter the risks associated with investments tied to countries or regions that historically were perceived as comparatively stable and make such investments riskier and more volatile.
Non-Diversification Risk -The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may invest a larger portion of its assets in a smaller number of issuers. This could make the Fund more susceptible to economic or credit risks than a diversified fund.
Sector Risk - To the extent the Fund's investments are concentrated in an industry or group of industries or focused in one or more sectors, such as technology sectors, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund's investments and could make the Fund's performance more volatile. For example, the values of companies in the information technology sector are particularly vulnerable to economic downturns, short product cycles and aggressive pricing, market competition and changes in government regulation.
Tracking Error Risk - While the Fund attempts to match the performance of the Index as closely as possible before the deductions of fees and expenses, the ability of the Fund to meet its investment objective depends to some extent on the cash flow in and out of the Fund. The Fund's performance may be affected by factors such as the size of the Fund's portfolio, transaction costs, management fees and expenses, and brokerage commissions and fees. Changes in the Fund's cash flow may affect how closely the Fund tracks the Index.
Passive Management Risk - The Fund is managed with a passive investment strategy, attempting to track the performance of an unmanaged index of securities, regardless of the current or projected performance of the Fund's Index or of the actual securities included in the Index. This differs from an actively managed fund, which typically seeks to outperform a benchmark index. As a result, the Fund's performance could be lower than actively managed funds that can shift their portfolio assets to take

advantage of market opportunities or lessen the impact of a market decline or a decline in the value of one or more issuers.
Large Shareholder Risk - The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on a Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of a Fund's distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on a Fund's shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder is permitted to invest in a Fund, a Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on a Fund.
Derivatives Risk - The Fund may invest in futures, options, and other types of derivatives. Risks associated with derivatives include the risk that the derivative is not well-correlated with the security, index, ETFs, or currency to which it relates; the risk that the use of derivatives may not have the intended effects and may result in losses, underperformance, or missed opportunities; the risk that the Fund will be unable to sell the derivative because of an illiquid secondary market; the risk that a counterparty is unwilling or unable to meet its obligation; the risk of interest rate movements; and the risk that the derivatives transaction could expose the Fund to the effects of leverage, which could increase the Fund's market exposure, magnify investment risks and losses, and cause losses to be realized more quickly. There is no guarantee that derivative techniques will be employed or that they will work as intended, and their use could lower returns or even result in losses to the Fund. In addition, current regulations may limit the Fund's ability to invest in derivatives.
Any investment involves risk, and there is no assurance that a Fund's objective will be achieved. By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan. As you consider an investment in the Fund, you also should take into account your tolerance for the daily fluctuations of the financial markets and whether you can afford to leave your money in the Fund for long periods of time to ride out down periods. As with other mutual funds, losing money is a risk of investing in a Fund.
An investment in a Fund is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
Investment Performance
The following bar chart and table are intended to help you understand some indication of the
risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart illustrates the Fund Shares' volatility by showing how performance has varied from year to year for each full calendar year over the past 10 years. The table shows how the average annual total returns of the Fund for the periods indicated compared to those of the Fund's regulatory broad-based securities market index, the Fund's benchmark index, and a broad-based securities market index with investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund. The S&P 500® Index serves as the Fund's regulatory broad-based securities market index. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.
Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures and reflects any expense limitations in effect during the periods shown. Remember, historical performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate what will happen in the future. The Fund's most current performance information is available on the Fund's website at vcm.com or by calling (800) 235-8396.

Victory Nasdaq-100 Index Fund Summary
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. In certain situations, the return after taxes on distributions and sale of fund shares may be higher than the other return amounts. A higher after-tax return may result when a capital loss occurs upon redemption and translates into an assumed tax deduction that benefits the shareholder. The actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. If you hold your shares through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as an individual retirement account ("IRA") or 401(k) plan, the after-tax returns shown in the table are not relevant to you. Please note that after-tax returns are shown only for the Fund Shares and may differ for each share class.

Victory Nasdaq-100 Index Fund Summary
When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value ("NAV") after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.
Tax Information
The Fund intends to make distributions that generally will be taxed to you as ordinary income or long-term capital gains, unless you are a tax-exempt investor or you invest through an IRA, 401(k) plan, or other tax-deferred account (in which case you may be taxed later, upon withdrawal of your investment from such account).
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of such shares and certain servicing and administrative functions for investments in all share classes except the Class R6. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your financial adviser to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial adviser or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
