EXCHANGE LISTED FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

October 31, 2024

1.     ORGANIZATION

Exchange Listed Funds Trust (the “Trust”) was organized on April 4, 2012 as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end management investment company. The Agreement and Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest (“Shares”) in one or more series representing interests in separate portfolios of securities. The Trust has registered its Shares in multiple separate series. The assets of each series in the Trust are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the series in which Shares are held. The financial statements presented herein relate to the funds listed below and are individually referred to as a “Fund” or collectively as the “Funds”:

QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap ETF

QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap Momentum ETF

LG QRAFT AI-Powered U.S. Large Cap Core ETF

The QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap Momentum ETF is classified as a non-diversified investment company under the 1940 Act. The QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap ETF and the LG QRAFT AI-Powered U.S. Large Cap Core ETF are classified as diversified investment companies under the 1940 Act.

Each Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (“ETF”). Unlike index ETFs, actively managed ETFs do not seek to track the performance of a specified index. Instead, each Fund uses an active investment strategy in seeking to meet its investment objective.

Each of the QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap ETF, QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap Momentum ETF and the LG QRAFT AI-Powered U.S. Large Cap Core ETF seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amounts of any borrowings for investment purposes, in securities of U.S. listed large capitalization companies (as such term is defined in each Fund’s prospectus). The QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap ETF and QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap Momentum ETF commenced operations on May 20, 2019. The LG QRAFT AI-Powered U.S. Large Cap Core ETF commenced operations on November 7, 2023.

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Board of Trustees (the “Board”) are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts with vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust.

2.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Trust is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, “Financial Services-Investment Companies.”

(a)    Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and income and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes the estimates and security valuations are appropriate; however, actual results may differ from those estimates, and the security valuations reflected in the financial statements may differ from the value each Fund ultimately realizes upon sale of the securities.

17

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

October 31, 2024

(b)    Valuation of Investments

Each Fund records investments at fair value using procedures approved by the Board and are generally valued using market valuations (Market Approach). A market valuation generally means a valuation (i) obtained from an exchange, a pricing service, or a major market maker (or dealer) or (ii) based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service, or a major market maker (or dealer). A price obtained from a pricing service based on such pricing service’s valuation matrix may be considered a market valuation. Any assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted into U.S. dollars at the current market rates on the date of valuation as quoted by one or more sources.

In December 2020, the SEC adopted Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, establishing requirements to determine fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. The rule permits fund boards to designate a fund’s investment adviser to perform fair-value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. The rule also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and requires a fund to fair value a portfolio investment when a market quotation is not readily available. The SEC also adopted new Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act, which sets forth recordkeeping requirements associated with fair-value determinations.

Pursuant to the requirements of Rule 2a-5, the Board (i) has designated the Adviser as the Board’s valuation designee to perform fair-value determinations for the Fund through the Adviser’s Valuation Committee and (ii) has approved the Adviser’s Valuation Procedures.

In the event that current market valuations are not readily available or such valuations do not reflect current fair market value, the Trust’s procedures require the Valuation Committee, in accordance with the Trust’s Board-approved Valuation Procedures, to determine a security’s fair value. In determining such value, the Valuation Committee may consider, among other things, (i) price comparisons among multiple sources, (ii) a review of corporate actions and news events, and (iii) a review of relevant financial indicators (e.g., movement in interest rates or market indices). Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determination for a security is materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of the security. With respect to securities that are primarily listed on foreign exchanges, the value of each Fund’s portfolio securities may change on days when the investors will not be able to purchase or sell their Shares.

Each Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of each Fund (observable inputs) and (2) each Fund’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the hierarchy are as follows:

        Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

        Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

        Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Pursuant to the Valuation Procedures noted previously, Equities and short-term investments are generally categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy (unless there is a fair valuation event, in which case affected securities are generally categorized as Level 2 or Level 3).

(c)    Investment Transactions and Related Income

For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on the trade date. However, for daily Net Asset Value (“NAV”) determination, portfolio securities transactions are reflected no later than in the first calculation on the first business day following the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization of premium or accretion of discount, using the effective yield method. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined using the specific identification method by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Dividend Income on the Statements of Operations is shown net of any foreign taxes withheld on income from foreign securities, which are provided for in accordance with each Fund’s understanding of the applicable tax rules and regulations, if any.

(d)    Foreign Currency Transactions

The accounting records of each Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Financial instruments and other assets and liabilities of each Fund denominated in a foreign currency, if any, are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of financial instruments, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Each Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates from those resulting from changes in values to financial instruments. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from transactions in financial instruments and foreign currencies, currency exchange fluctuations between the trade and settlement date of such transactions, and the difference between the amount of assets and liabilities recorded and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, including financial instruments, resulting from changes in currency exchange rates. Each Fund may be subject to foreign taxes related to foreign income received, capital gains on the sale of securities and certain foreign currency transactions (a portion of which may be reclaimable). All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which each Fund invests.

19

EXCHANGE LISTED FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

October 31, 2024

(e)    Federal Income Tax

It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and capital gains, if any, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required as long as each Fund qualifies as a regulated investment company.

Management of each Fund has evaluated tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing each Fund’s tax returns to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not (i.e., greater than 50%) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements will generally result in an increase in a liability for taxes payable (or a reduction of a tax refund receivable), including the recognition of any related interest and penalties as an operating expense. In general, tax positions taken in previous tax years remain subject to examination by tax authorities (generally three years for federal income tax purposes). The determination has been made that there are not any uncertain tax positions that would require each Fund to record a tax liability and, therefore, there is no impact to the Fund’s financial statements. Each Fund’s policy is to classify interest and penalties associated with underpayment of federal and state income taxes, if any, as income tax expense on its Statements of Operations. As of October 31, 2024, the Funds did not have any interest or penalties associated with the underpayment of any income taxes.

(f)     Distributions to Shareholders

Each Fund pays out dividends from its net investment income at least quarterly and distributes its net capital gains, if any, to investors at least annually. Each Fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distributions requirement of the Code, in all events in a manner consistent with the provisions of the 1940 Act.

The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (e.g., return of capital and distribution reclassifications), such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g., wash sales and straddles) do not require a reclassification.

3.     TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND OTHER SERVICING AGREEMENTS

(a)    Investment Advisory and Administrative Services

Exchange Traded Concepts, LLC (the “Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser to each Fund pursuant to an investment advisory agreement with the Trust (the “Advisory Agreement”). Under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides investment advisory services to each Fund and is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds, including, among other things, providing an investment program for each Fund, trading portfolio securities on behalf of each Fund, and selecting broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale transactions, subject to the oversight of the Board. For the services it provides, each Fund pays the Adviser a fee calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.75% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

ETC Platform Services, LLC (“ETC Platform Services”), a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Adviser, administers each Fund’s business affairs and provides office facilities and equipment, certain clerical, bookkeeping and administrative services, paying agent services under each Fund’s unitary fee arrangement (as described below), and its officers and employees to serve as officers or Trustees of the Trust. ETC Platform Services also arranges for transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution related services necessary for each Fund to operate. For the services it provides to each Fund, ETC Platform Services is paid a fee calculated daily and paid monthly based on a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

20

EXCHANGE LISTED FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

October 31, 2024

Under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to pay all expenses of each Fund (including the fee charged by ETC Platform Services) except for the advisory fee, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, extraordinary expenses, and distribution fees and expenses paid by the Trust under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (collectively, “Excluded Expenses”).

QRAFT Technologies, Inc. (“Qraft”) is the Funds’ sponsor. In connection with an arrangement between the Adviser, and Qraft, Qraft has agreed to assume the Adviser’s obligation to pay all expenses of the Funds (except the Excluded Expenses) and, to the extent applicable, pay the Adviser a minimum fee. Qraft will also provide marketing support for the Funds including, but not limited to, distributing each Fund’s materials and providing the Funds with access to and the use of Qraft’s other marketing capabilities, including communications through print and electronic media. For its services, Qraft is entitled to a fee from the Adviser, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Qraft does not make investment decisions, provide investment advice, or otherwise act in the capacity of an investment adviser to the Funds.

An interested Trustee and certain officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser and receive no compensation from the Trust for serving as officers and/or Trustee.

(b)    Distribution Arrangement

Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, is the principal underwriter and distributor of each Fund’s Shares. The Distributor does not maintain any secondary market in any Fund’s Shares.

The Trust has adopted a Rule 12b-1 Distribution and Service Plan (the “Distribution and Service Plan”) pursuant to which payments of up to a maximum of 0.25% of a Fund’s average daily net assets may be made to compensate or reimburse financial intermediaries for activities principally intended to result in the sale of each Fund’s Shares. In accordance with the Distribution and Service Plan, the Distributor may enter into agreements with financial intermediaries and dealers relating to distribution and/or marketing services with respect to the Trust.

Currently, no payments are made under the Distribution and Service Plan. Such payments may only be made after approval by the Board. The Adviser and its affiliates may, out of their own resources, pay amounts to third parties for distribution or marketing services on behalf of the Trust.

(c)    Other Servicing Agreements

Ultimus Fund Services, LLC provides administration and fund accounting services to the Trust pursuant to separate servicing agreements. Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. serves as each fund’s custodian and transfer agent pursuant to a custodian agreement and transfer agency services agreement. The Adviser pays these fees.

5.     CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

Fund Shares are listed and traded on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”) each day that the Exchange is open for business (“Business Day”). Each Fund’s Shares may only be purchased and sold on the Exchange through a broker-dealer. Because each Fund’s Shares trade at market prices rather than at their NAV, Shares may trade at a price equal to NAV, greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount).

Each Fund offers and redeems Shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares (each a “Creation Unit”). Except when aggregated in Creation Units, Shares are not redeemable securities of a Fund. Fund Shares may only be purchased from or redeemed directly from each Fund by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Creation Units are available for purchase and redemption on each Business Day and are offered and redeemed on an in-kind basis, together with the specified cash amount, or for an all cash amount.

To the extent contemplated by a Participant Agreement, in the event an Authorized Participant has submitted a redemption request in proper form but is unable to transfer all or part of the shares comprising a Creation Unit to be redeemed by the Distributor, on behalf of each Fund, by the time as set forth in a Participant Agreement, the Distributor may nonetheless accept the redemption request in reliance on the undertaking by the Authorized Participant to deliver the missing shares as soon as possible, which undertaking shall be secured by the Authorized Participant’s delivery and maintenance of collateral equal to a percentage of the market value as set forth in the Participant Agreement. A Participant Agreement may permit each Fund to use such collateral to purchase the missing shares, and could subject an Authorized Participant to liability for any shortfall between the cost of each Fund acquiring such shares and the value of the collateral.

Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the Shares directly from each Fund. Rather, most retail investors will purchase Shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker, which will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

A purchase (i.e., creation) transaction fee may be imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase of Creation Units, and investors will be required to pay a creation transaction fee regardless of the number of Creation Units created in the transaction. Each Fund may adjust the creation transaction fee from time to time based upon actual experience. In addition, a variable fee may be imposed for cash purchases, non-standard orders, or partial cash purchases of Creation Units. The variable fee is primarily designed to cover non-standard charges, e.g., brokerage, taxes, foreign exchange, execution, market impact, and other costs and expenses, related to the execution of trades resulting from such transaction. Each Fund may adjust the non-standard charge from time to time based upon actual experience. Investors who use the services of an Authorized Participant, broker or other such intermediary may be charged a fee for such services which may include an amount for the creation transaction fee and non-standard charges. Investors are responsible for the costs of transferring the securities constituting the deposit securities to the account of the Trust. The Adviser may retain all or a portion of the transaction fee to the extent the Adviser bears the expenses that otherwise would be borne by the Trust in connection with the issuance of a Creation Unit, which the transaction fee is designed to cover.

22

EXCHANGE LISTED FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

October 31, 2024

A redemption transaction fee may be imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the redemption of Creation Units, and Authorized Participants will be required to pay a redemption transaction fee regardless of the number of Creation Units created in the transaction. The redemption transaction fee is the same no matter how many Creation Units are being redeemed pursuant to any one redemption request. Each Fund may adjust the redemption transaction fee from time to time based upon actual experience. In addition, a variable fee, payable to each Fund, may be imposed for cash redemptions, non-standard orders, or partial cash redemptions for each Fund. The variable fee is primarily designed to cover non-standard charges, e.g., brokerage, taxes, foreign exchange, execution, market impact, and other costs and expenses, related to the execution of trades resulting from such transaction. Investors who use the services of an Authorized Participant, broker or other such intermediary may be charged a fee for such services which may include an amount for the redemption transaction fees and non-standard charges. Investors are responsible for the costs of transferring the securities constituting each Fund’s securities to the account of the Trust. The non-standard charges are payable to each Fund as it incurs costs in connection with the redemption of Creation Units, the receipt of each Fund’s securities and the cash redemption amount and other transactions costs.

6.     PRINCIPAL RISKS

As with any investment, an investor could lose all or part of their investment in each Fund and each Fund’s performance could trail that of other investments. Each Fund is subject to the principal risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV, trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective. Additional principal risks are disclosed in the Funds’ prospectus. Please refer to the relevant Fund’s prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in that Fund.

Market Risk. Overall market risk may affect the value of individual instruments in which a Fund invests. A Fund is subject to the risk that the securities markets will move down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, based on overall economic conditions and other factors, which may negatively affect a Fund’s performance. Factors such as domestic and foreign (non-U.S.) economic growth and market conditions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions, military conflict, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, recessions, inflation, changes in interest rate levels, supply chain disruptions, sanctions, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats, lack of liquidity in the bond or other markets, volatility in the securities markets, adverse investor sentiment and political events affect the securities markets. U.S. and foreign stock markets have experienced periods of substantial price volatility in the past and may do so again in the future. Securities markets also may experience long periods of decline in value. A change in financial condition or other event affecting a single issuer or market may adversely impact securities markets as a whole. Rates of inflation have recently risen. The value of assets or income from an investment may be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money.

Models and Data Risk. Each Fund relies heavily on a proprietary artificial intelligence selection model as well as data and information supplied by third parties that are utilized by such model. To the extent the model does not perform as designed or as intended, a Fund’s strategy may not be successfully implemented and a Fund may lose value. If the model or data are incorrect or incomplete, any decisions made in reliance thereon may lead to the inclusion or exclusion of securities that would have been excluded or included had the model or data been correct and complete.

Non-Diversification Risk. (QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap Momentum ETF only). As a non-diversified investment company under the 1940 Act, it can invest a greater percentage of its assets in securities issued by or representing a small number of issuers. As a result, the performance of these issuers can have a substantial impact on the Fund’s performance.

Sector Focus Risk. Each Fund’s sector exposure is expected to vary over time, a Fund may have a significant portion of its assets in one or more sectors from time to time. When a Fund has significant exposure to a particular sector, it will be more susceptible to the risks affecting that sector.

23

EXCHANGE LISTED FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

October 31, 2024

Technology Sector Risk. Each Fund is subject to the risk that market or economic factors impacting technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology advances could have a major effect on the value of a Fund’s investments. The value of stocks of technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors with lower production costs.

8.     RECENT MARKET EVENTS

Local, regional, or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the market generally and on specific securities. Periods of market volatility may occur in response to such events and other economic, political, and global macro factors.

Governments and central banks, including the Federal Reserve in the United States, took extraordinary and unprecedented actions to support local and global economies and the financial markets in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including by keeping interest rates at historically low levels for an extended period. The Federal Reserve concluded its market support

activities in 2022 and began to raise interest rates in an effort to fight inflation. The Federal Reserve may determine to raise interest rates further. This and other government intervention into the economy and financial markets to address the pandemic, inflation, or other significant events in the future may not work as intended, particularly if the efforts are perceived by investors as being unlikely to achieve the desired results.

9.     NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07 (“ASU 2023-07”), Segment Reporting (“Topic 280”). ASU 2023-07 clarifies the guidance in Topic 280, which requires public entities to provide disclosures of significant segment expenses and other segment items. The guidance requires public entities to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually and also applies to public entities with a single reportable segment. Entities are permitted to disclose more than one measure of a segment’s profit or loss if such measures are used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker to allocate resources and assess performance, as long as at least one of those measures is determined in a way that is most consistent with the measurement principles used to measure the corresponding amounts in the consolidated financial statements. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and their impact on the financial statements.

10.   EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO FISCAL PERIOD END

In preparing these financial statements, management has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has determined there are no subsequent events that would require disclosure in a Fund’s financial statements.

BOARD CONSIDERATIONS OF APPROVAL OF ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

October 31, 2024

   

Approval of Continuance of Investment Advisory Agreement

At a meeting held on September 17, 2024 (the “Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Exchange Listed Funds Trust (the “Trust”) considered the approval of the continuance of the investment advisory agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap ETF (“QRFT”) and QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap Momentum ETF (“AMOM”) (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), and Exchange Traded Concepts, LLC (“ETC”) pursuant to which ETC provides advisory services to the Funds (the “Agreement”).

Pursuant to Section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Agreement must be approved by a vote of (i) the Trustees or the shareholders of the Fund and (ii) a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Agreement or “interested persons” of any party thereto, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with its consideration of such approval, the Board must request and evaluate, and ETC is required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreement. In addition, rules under the 1940 Act require each Fund to disclose in its shareholder reports the material factors and the conclusions with respect thereto that formed the basis for the Board’s approval of the Agreement.

Consistent with these responsibilities, prior to the Meeting, the Board reviewed written materials from ETC and, at the Meeting, representatives from ETC presented additional oral and written information to help the Board evaluate the Agreement. Among other things, representatives from ETC provided an overview of its advisory business, including investment personnel and investment processes. During the Meeting, the Board discussed the materials it received, including a memorandum from legal counsel to the Independent Trustees on the responsibilities of Trustees in considering the approval of investment advisory agreements under the 1940 Act, considered ETC’s oral presentation, and deliberated on the approval of the Agreement in light of this information. Throughout the process, the Trustees were afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and request additional materials from ETC. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel separately and without management present.

In considering whether to approve the continuance of the Agreement, the Board took into account the materials provided for the Meeting, the extensive discussion before and during the Meeting, including the discussion the Independent Trustees had during their executive session with independent legal counsel. In particular, the Board took into consideration (i) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by ETC to each Fund; (ii) each Fund’s performance; (iii) ETC’s costs of and profits realized from providing advisory services to each Fund, including any fall-out benefits to ETC or its affiliates; (iv) comparative fee and expense data; (v) the extent to which the advisory fee for each Fund reflects economies of scale shared with Fund shareholders; and (vi) other factors the Board deemed to be relevant.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Fund, the Board considered ETC’s specific responsibilities in all aspects of the day-to-day management of the Fund.

The Board considered that responsibilities with respect to the Fund’s portfolio include developing, implementing, and maintaining the Fund’s investment program; implementing changes to the Fund’s portfolio in connection with any rebalancing or reconstitution of the underlying index; selecting broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale transactions; determining the daily baskets of deposit securities and cash components; executing portfolio securities trades for purchases and redemptions of Fund shares conducted on a cash-in-lieu basis. The Board considered that beyond portfolio management, ETC, including through its affiliates, also maintains responsibilities for overseeing compliance with relevant law; monitoring compliance with various policies and procedures and applicable securities regulations; the provision of various administrative services to the Fund and oversight of third-party administrators, quarterly reporting to the Board; and implementing Board directives as they relate to the Fund. The Board considered that those services also include arranging for and providing oversight of transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution related services necessary for the Fund to operate; administering the Fund’s business affairs; providing office facilities and equipment and certain clerical, bookkeeping, and administrative services; liaising with and reporting to the Board on matters relating to Fund operations; supervising the Fund’s registration as an investment company and the offering of Fund shares to the public, including

oversight and preparation of regulatory filings; working with ETF market participants, including authorized participants, market makers, and exchanges, to help facilitate an orderly trading environment for the Fund’s shares; and providing its officers and employees to serve as officers or Trustees of the Trust.

The Board noted that it has reviewed ETC’s responses to a detailed series of questions, which included a description of ETC’s consolidated operations, services, personnel, compliance program, risk management program, and financial condition, and an overview of the material changes to such information since it was last presented to the Board. The Board considered the qualifications, experience, and responsibilities of ETC’s investment personnel, the quality of ETC’s compliance infrastructure, and the determination of the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer that ETC has procedures that are reasonably designed to comply with the federal securities laws. The Board considered ETC’s experience working with ETFs, including the Fund, other series of the Trust, and other ETFs outside of the Trust. The Board also noted no material changes to ETC’s staffing, management, or overall condition over the past year. Based on the factors discussed above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Fund by ETC.

Performance. The Board reviewed the performance of each Fund in light of the Fund’s stated investment objective, noting that the Fund is actively managed. The Board was provided reports regarding each Fund’s past performance, including a report prepared by ISS, an independent third party, comparing the Fund’s performance to the performance of a group of peer funds (each a “Peer Group”) for various time periods ended June 30, 2024. The Board reviewed this information for the Fund in turn, noting its observations with respect to the Funds.

QRAFT AI-Enhanced US Large Cap ETF (QRFT)

The Board found that QRFT performed in excess of the median and mean for the June 30, 2024 year-to-date and outperformed the mean and performed at the median for the 1 year period, underperformed the mean and median of the Peer Group for the 3 year period (annualized), and outperformed the mean and median for the 5 year period (annualized). The Fund also outperformed the overall return of its benchmark index (S&P 500) for the one-year, five-year and since inception periods ended June 30, 2024.

QRAFT AI-Enhanced U.S. Large Cap Momentum ETF (AMOM)

The Board found that AMOM outperformed the median and mean for the June 30, 2024 year-to-date and 1 year periods (annualized), while underperforming the mean and median for the 3 year period, and outperformed each for the 5 year period. The Fund also outperformed the overall return of its benchmark index (S&P 500) for the one-year, five-year and since inception periods ended June 30, 2024.

The Board considered ETC’s commentary with respect to Fund performance, including that the Funds have generated performance with positive attributes in recent periods, and are generally in line or better relative to competitors. Each Fund has also outperformed its benchmark index since inception and appears to be managed consistent with its investment objective.

Based on this review, the Board concluded that the performance of the Fund supported the Board’s approval of the continuance of the Agreements, respectively, for the coming year.

Cost of Advisory Services and Profitability. The Board reviewed the advisory fee paid by each Fund to ETC under the Agreement. The Board reviewed a report prepared by ISS, an independent third party, comparing the Fund’s advisory fee to those paid by a group of peer funds. The Board noted that the report included mutual funds in the Fund’s peer group, which were intended to enhance the Board’s ability to evaluate the quality of fees and expenses on a broader scale. The Board took into account the differences in operations and fee structures between ETFs and mutual funds and gave such weight

to the mutual fund data as it deemed appropriate. The Board noted that ISS selected the particular mutual funds that were included in its report. In support of its review of the statistical information, the Board was provided with a description of the methodology used by ISS to prepare this information.

The Board noted that the advisory fee for each of QRFT and AMOM was higher than the median of advisory fees paid by their respective peer funds, but within the range of fees paid by peers, including other actively managed ETFs.

The Board took into consideration that the advisory fee for each Fund is a “unitary fee,” meaning that the Fund pays no expenses other than the advisory fee and certain expenses customarily excluded from unitary fee arrangements, such as brokerage commissions, taxes, and interest. The Board noted that ETC is responsible for compensating each Fund’s other service providers and paying each Fund’s other expenses out of its own fee and resources and that, while Qraft has assumed such responsibility, ETC is ultimately responsible for ensuring the obligation is satisfied. The Board considered the risks borne by ETC associated with providing services to the Fund, including the entrepreneurial risk associated with sponsoring new funds, as well as the enterprise risk emanating from litigation and reputational risks, operational and business risks, and other risks associated with the ongoing management of the Fund. Based on the foregoing information, the Board concluded that the advisory fees appeared reasonable in light of the services rendered.

Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether economies of scale have been realized with respect to the Funds. The Board concluded that no significant economies of scale have been realized and that the Board will have the opportunity to periodically reexamine whether such economies have been achieved.

Conclusion. No single factor was determinative of the Board’s decision to approve the continuance of the Agreements on behalf of each Fund; rather, the Board based its determination on the total mix of information available to it. Based on a consideration of all the factors in their totality, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, determined that the Agreements, including the compensation payable thereunder, were fair and reasonable to each Fund. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, therefore, determined that the approval of the continuance of the Agreements was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.
