Tidal Investments LLC serves as investment adviser to the Fund.\n\nWhat’s Inside the Fund?\n\nThe world’s growing reliance on AI, cloud computing and other data-intensive\ntechnologies is increasing the importance of the infrastructure required to\nstore, move and process data. Memory and storage are fundamental to that\ninfrastructure, and the investment opportunity extends across a broader\necosystem than any single company or technology.\n\nYRAM is designed to provide exposure across that ecosystem while applying\nYieldMax’s options-based approach to seeking current income. The Fund may\ninvest in memory semiconductor manufacturers producing technologies such as\ndynamic random access memory (DRAM) and NAND flash memory; memory-focused\nintegrated device manufacturers; specialized memory designers; manufacturers\nof memory controllers and interface semiconductors, including solid-state\ndrive (SSD) controllers; and storage device manufacturers producing hardware\nsuch as solid-state drives (SSDs) and hard disk drives (HDDs).\n\nFor investors, this provides a way to obtain exposure to multiple parts of the\nmemory and storage value chain through a single ETF rather than relying on the\nperformance of one company or one segment of the industry. It also seeks to\nposition investors across the infrastructure supporting the continued growth\nof data-intensive computing.\n\nThe Adviser actively selects companies based not only on their role within the\nmemory and storage ecosystem, but also on factors including stock and options\nliquidity, price level and implied volatility. These factors are monitored as\nthe Adviser determines whether to add or remove holdings. The Fund is not\nconstrained by market capitalization and may include foreign issuers through\nU.S.-listed depositary receipts. Exposure may also be obtained directly or\nsynthetically through options contracts or swaps.\n\nThis flexibility allows the Adviser to look across the memory and storage\necosystem for opportunities that support both the Fund’s thematic exposure\nand its options-based income strategy. YRAM will be concentrated in the\nindustries of Memory and Storage Device Companies, and dividends, if any, paid\nby portfolio holdings may also contribute to the Fund’s income.\n\nTop 10 Holdings of YRAM Sample Portfolio\n\n Ticker  Holding Name                           % of Net Assets  \n DRAM    Roundhill Memory ETF                   40.0%            \n MU      Micron Technology, Inc.                15.0%            \n SKHY    SK hynix Inc.                          15.0%            \n STX     Seagate Technology Holdings PLC        6.0%             \n SNDK    SanDisk Corporation                    6.0%             \n WDC     Western Digital Corporation            6.0%             \n P       Everpure, Inc.                         3.0%             \n PENG    Penguin Solutions, Inc.                3.0%             \n RMBS    Rambus Inc.                            3.0%             \n SIMO    Silicon Motion Technology Corporation  3.0%             \n\nHoldings as of 8/24/2026. These are not recommendations to buy or to sell any\nsecurity. Securities and holdings may vary.\n\nImportant Information\n\nBefore investing, you should carefully consider each Fund’s investment\nobjectives, risks, charges and expenses. This and other information are in the\nprospectus, a copy of which can be obtained by clicking here\n(https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=UFfa0-PBUP78SkTUUhvv8J8w0QcOgOXBkHlMmvcIm5YQCrfhL3GhqEwxrq_P__gKngw2riN2r0H-dqXyXX49-uZboR7lr9roRx9deJtGFh8=).\nPlease read the prospectuses carefully before you invest. \n\nA portion (sometimes significant) of the Fund’s distributions may be\nclassified as return of capital (“ROC”) for financial or tax reporting\npurposes, which would decrease the Fund’s NAV and trading price over time.\n\nThe repeated payment of distributions by the Fund, if any, may significantly\nerode the Fund’s NAV and trading price over time.\n\nWhile the Fund intends to pay distributions on a regular basis, there is no\nassurance in any given period that distributions will be made.\n\nTidal Investments, LLC is the adviser for all YieldMax® ETFs.\n\nTHE FUND, TRUST, AND ADVISER ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANY UNDERLYING REFERENCE\nASSET.\n\nRisk Disclosures\n\nInvesting involves risk. Principal loss is possible.\n\nSingle Issuer Risk. Issuer-specific attributes may cause an investment in the\nFund to be more volatile than a traditional pooled investment which\ndiversifies risk or the market generally. The value of the Fund, which focuses\non an individual security, may be more volatile than a traditional pooled\ninvestment or the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value\nof a traditional pooled investment or the market as a whole.\n\nSwap Agreements Risk. The use of swap transactions is a highly specialized\nactivity, which involves investment techniques and risks different from those\nassociated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. Whether the Fund\nwill be successful in using swap agreements to achieve its investment goal\ndepends on the ability of the Adviser to structure such swap agreements in\naccordance with the Fund’s investment objective and to identify\ncounterparties for those swap agreements.\n\nInflation Risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income\nfrom investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value\nof money. As inflation increases, the present value of the Fund’s assets and\ndistributions, if any, may decline.\n\nIndirect Investment Risk. The Index is not affiliated with the Trust, the\nFund, the Adviser, or their respective affiliates and is not involved with\nthis offering in any way.\n\nCall Writing Strategy Risk. The path dependency (i.e., the continued use) of\nthe Fund’s call writing strategy will impact the extent that the Fund\nparticipates in the positive price returns of the underlying reference asset\nand, in turn, the Fund’s returns, both during the term of the sold call\noptions and over longer periods.\n\nCounterparty Risk. The Fund is subject to counterparty risk by virtue of its\ninvestments in options contracts. Transactions in some types of derivatives,\nincluding options, are required to be centrally cleared (“cleared\nderivatives”). In a transaction involving cleared derivatives, the Fund’s\ncounterparty is a clearing house rather than a bank or broker. Since the Fund\nis not a member of clearing houses and only members of a clearing house\n(“clearing members”) can participate directly in the clearing house, the\nFund will hold cleared derivatives through accounts at clearing members.\n\nDerivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value\nfrom the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds\n(including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. The Fund’s investments in\nderivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated\nwith directly investing in securities or other ordinary investments, including\nrisk related to the market, imperfect correlation with underlying investments\nor the Fund’s other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of\navailability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions.\n\nOptions Contracts. The use of options contracts involves investment\nstrategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio\nsecurities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced\nby, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the\nunderlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are\naffected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international\npolitical, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset,\nthe time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic\nevents.\n\nDistribution Risk. As part of the Fund’s investment objective, the Fund\nseeks to provide current income. There is no assurance that the Fund will make\na distribution in any given period. If the Fund does make distributions, the\namounts of such distributions will likely vary greatly from one distribution\nto the next.\n\nHigh Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund may actively and frequently trade all\nor a significant portion of the Fund’s holdings. A high portfolio turnover\nrate increases transaction costs, which may increase the Fund’s expenses.\n\nLiquidity Risk. Some securities held by the Fund, including options contracts,\nmay be difficult to sell or be illiquid, particularly during times of market\nturmoil.\n\nNon-Diversification Risk. Because the Fund is “non-diversified,” it may\ninvest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer\nor a smaller number of issuers than if it was a diversified fund.\n\nNew Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized management investment company\nwith no operating history. As a result, prospective investors do not have a\ntrack record or history on which to base their investment decisions.\n\nPrice Participation Risk. The Fund employs an investment strategy that\nincludes the sale of call option contracts, which limits the degree to which\nthe Fund will participate in increases in value experienced by the underlying\nreference asset over the Call Period.\n\nMemory and Storage Industry Risks. Companies operating in the [memory\nsemiconductor manufacturing, memory-focused integrated device manufacturers\n(IDMs), specialized memory designers, memory controllers and interface\nsemiconductor manufacturers, and storage device manufacturers] space face\nrisks related to intense competition, volatile industry conditions, intensive\ncapital requirements, dependence on supply chains, materials & third-party\nservice providers, intellectual property, research & design expenses, human\ncapital, and government regulations.\n\nForeign Securities Risk. Investments in securities or other instruments of\nnon-U.S. issuers involve certain risks not involved in domestic investments\nand may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than investments in\nsecurities of U.S. companies. Financial markets in foreign countries often are\nnot as developed, efficient, or liquid as financial markets in the United\nStates, and therefore, the prices of non-U.S. securities and instruments can\nbe more volatile. In addition, the Fund will be subject to risks associated\nwith adverse political and economic developments in foreign countries, which\nmay include the imposition of economic sanctions.\n\nYieldMax® ETFs are distributed by Foreside Fund Services, LLC.
