HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital growth.
The total return net asset value (NAV) of the Fund was up 17.13% over the twelve months ended November 30, 2025, while the Bloomberg US 3000 Total Return Index was up 13.69%.
The Fund is comprised of both long and short holdings, combining two portfolios, one of stocks owned ("long") and the other of stocks borrowed and sold ("short"). On average, positions in both the long portfolio and short portfolio positively contributed to Fund returns.
The Fund's holdings in the Health Care Equipment, Technology Hardware and Media industry groups contributed the most to the Fund's relative performance versus the benchmark index for the most recent twelve months. The three industry groups that detracted the most from relative performance versus the benchmark index for the same period were Financial Services, Semiconductors and Automobiles.
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS?*
The $10,000 chart reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund. The chart uses total return NAV performance and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund expenses, including management fees and other expenses, were deducted.

| * | The Fund's past performance is not a good predictor of how the Fund will perform in the future. The graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemption of Fund shares. |
| ** | Effective May 31, 2025, the Fund's primary benchmark was changed from the Russell 3000 Total Return Index to the Bloomberg US 3000 Total Return Index. This change was made so that the Fund's performance can be evaluated against a benchmark that more appropriately represents the Fund's investment strategy. |

| Registrant | 0 | 0 |
| Registrant's Investment Adviser | 0 | 0 |
(h) The audit committee of the board of trustees/directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant's investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant's independence.

CONVERGENCE LONG/SHORT EQUITY ETF
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2025
(1) ORGANIZATION
Trust for Professional Managers (the "Trust") was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under a Declaration of Trust dated May 29, 2001. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Convergence Long/Short Equity ETF (the "Fund") represents a distinct diversified series with its own investment objective and policies within the Trust. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long- term capital growth. The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund ("ETF"). The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest at $0.001 par value.
Effective February 18, 2022, the Fund converted from a mutual fund to an ETF, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization. The reorganization was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares (with an exception for fractional mutual fund shares). The costs of the reorganization were borne by the Fund's investment adviser, Convergence Investment Partners, LLC (the "Adviser"). The reorganization did not result in a material change to the investment portfolio. The mutual fund offered Institutional Class shares and commenced operations on December 29, 2009. The following table illustrates the specifics of the reorganization of the mutual fund into the ETF:

Includes accumulated net investment losses, accumulated realized gains and unrealized appreciation in the amounts of $(86,871), $2,453,571, and $8,049,316, respectively.
|
The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 "Financial Services - Investment Companies."
(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP").
|
(a)
|
Investment Valuation. Each security owned by the Fund, including long and short positions of common stock and real estate investment trusts, that is listed on a securities exchange, except those listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ"), is valued at its last sale price on that exchange on the date as of which assets are valued. When the security is listed on more than one exchange, the Fund will use the price of the exchange that the Fund generally considers to be the principal exchange on which the stock is traded.
|
Fund securities listed on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. If there has been no sale on such exchange or on NASDAQ on such day, the security shall be valued at, (i) the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices at the close of the exchange on such day or
(ii) the last sales price on the Composite Market for the day such security is being valued. "Composite Market" means a consolidation of the trade information provided by national securities and foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets, as published by an approved independent pricing service ("Pricing Service").
Debt securities, including short-term debt instruments having a maturity of 60 days or less, are valued at the mean in accordance with prices supplied by a Pricing Service. Pricing Services may use various valuation methodologies such as the mean between the bid and
|
|
|

|
|
|
TABLE OF CONTENTS
CONVERGENCE LONG/SHORT EQUITY ETF
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2025(Continued)
the asked prices, matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. If a price is not available from a Pricing Service, the most recent quotation obtained from one or more broker-dealers known to follow the issue will be obtained. Quotations will be valued at the mean between the bid and the offer. In the absence of available quotations, the securities will be priced at fair value, as described below. Any discount or premium is accreted or amortized using the constant yield method until maturity.
Redeemable securities issued by open-end, registered investment companies, including money market mutual funds are valued at the net asset value ("NAV") of such companies for purchase and/or redemption orders placed on that day. All exchange-traded funds are valued at the last reported sale price on the exchange on which the security is principally traded. If, on a particular day, a share of an investment company is not listed on NASDAQ, such security's fair value will be determined as described below.
When market quotations are not readily available, any security or other asset is valued at its fair value in accordance with Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act as determined under the Adviser's fair value pricing procedures, subject to oversight by the Trust's Board of Trustees. These fair value procedures will also be used to price a security when corporate events, events in the securities market or world events cause the Adviser to believe that a security's last sale price may not reflect its actual fair market value. The intended effect of using fair value pricing procedures is to ensure that the Fund is accurately priced.
FASB Accounting Standards Codification, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures"
Topic 820 ("ASC 820"), establishes an authoritative definition of fair value and sets out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. ASC 820 requires an entity to evaluate certain factors to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in volume and level of activity for the security such that recent transactions and quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value and further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value.
ASC 820 also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value in those instances as well as expanded disclosure of valuation levels for each class of investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 -
Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
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 a 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. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund's investments carried at fair value as of November 30, 2025:

The Fund did not hold any Level 3 securities during the year ended November 30, 2025.
Except for securities sold short, the Fund did not invest in any derivative securities or engage in hedging activities during the year ended November 30, 2025.
|
(b)
|
Short Positions. The Fund may sell a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the fair value of that security. When the Fund sells a security short, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale. A gain, limited to the price at which the Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale. For financial statement purposes, an amount equal to the settlement amount is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the short positions. Subsequent fluctuations in the market prices of the securities sold, but not yet purchased, may require purchasing the securities at prices which could differ from the amount reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund is liable for any dividends or interest payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. Such amounts are recorded on the ex-dividend date as a dividend expense, and interest expense is accrued daily. As collateral for its short positions, the Fund is required to maintain segregated assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. The segregated assets are valued consistent with Note 2a above. The amount of segregated assets is required to be adjusted daily to the extent additional collateral is required based on the change in fair value of the securities sold short. The Fund's securities sold short and deposits for short sales are held with one major securities broker-dealer. The Fund does not require this broker-dealer to maintain collateral in support of the receivable for proceeds on securities sold short.
|
In accordance with the terms of its prime brokerage agreements with broker-dealers, the Fund may receive rebate income or be charged a fee for borrowed securities. Such income or fee is calculated on a daily basis based upon the market value of each borrowed security and a variable rate that is dependent upon the availability of such security. The Fund records these prime broker charges on a net basis as interest income or interest expense. During the year ended November 30, 2025, the Fund has incurred $2,744,520 of interest income and $161,349 of interest expense, for a total net income of $2,583,171 on borrowed securities which is reflected in prime broker interest income on the Statement of Operations.
Rule 18f-4 imposes limits on the amount of derivatives a fund can enter into, eliminates the asset segregation framework currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, treats derivatives as senior securities and requires funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure amount to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. Effective August 19, 2022, the Fund has adopted a Full Derivatives Fund Program and the Adviser has nominated a Derivatives Risk Manager.

|
(c)
|
Federal Income Taxes. The Fund complies with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and makes the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to their shareholders sufficient to relieve them from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been provided.
|
As of and during the year ended November 30, 2025, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended November 30, 2025, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Fund's tax returns for the prior three tax years remain subject to examinations by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the state of Delaware.
|
(d)
|
Distributions to Shareholders. The Fund will distribute any net investment income and any net capital gains at least annually. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains. All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax purposes. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund may also pay a special distribution at the end of the calendar year to comply with federal tax requirements.
|
|
(e)
|
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
|
(f)
|
Share Valuation. The NAV per share of the Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the fair value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Fund's shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading. The Fund does not charge a redemption fee, and therefore the offering and redemption price per share are equal to the Fund's NAV per share.
|
|
(g)
|
Allocation of Income, Expenses and Gains/Losses. Expenses associated with a specific fund in the Trust are charged to that fund. Common Trust expenses are typically allocated evenly between the funds of the Trust, or by other equitable means.
|
|
(h)
|
Other. Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Fund determines the gain or loss from investment transactions on the identified cost basis by comparing original cost of the security lot sold with the net sale proceeds. Dividend income and expense is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income and expense is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income from real estate investment trusts ("REITs") is recognized on the ex-date and included in dividend income. The calendar year-end classification of distributions received from REITs during the fiscal year are reported subsequent to year end; accordingly, the Fund estimates the character of REIT distributions based on the most recent information available and adjusts for actual classifications in the calendar year the information is reported.

The tax basis of distributable earnings for tax and financial reporting purposes differs principally due to the deferral of losses on wash sales.
At November 30, 2025, the Fund had short-term capital loss carryovers of $23,614,937.
Income and capital gains distributions may differ from GAAP, primarily due to timing differences in the recognition of income, gains and losses, and tax equalization by the Fund. To the extent that these differences are attributable to permanent book and tax accounting differences, the components of net assets have been adjusted. Additionally, GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications are due to redemptions in-kind and excise tax expense and have no effect on net assets or NAV per share. For the year ended November 30, 2025, the following table shows the reclassifications made:

liability, extraordinary expenses, and distribution fees and expenses paid by the Fund under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, and the unitary management fee payable to the Adviser.
(5) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

(7) CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS
Shares of the Fund are listed and traded on the Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the "Exchange"). The Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares called "Creation Units." A Creation Unit generally consists of 10,000 shares. Creation Units are to be issued and redeemed principally in kind for a basket of securities and a balancing cash amount. Shares generally will trade in the secondary market in amounts less than a Creation Unit at market prices that change throughout the day. Market prices for the shares may be different from their NAV. The NAV is determined as of the close of trading (generally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day the NYSE is open for trading. The NAV of the shares of the Fund will be equal to the Fund's total assets minus the Fund's total liabilities divided by the total number of shares outstanding. The NAV that is published will be rounded to the nearest cent; however, for purposes of determining the price of Creation Units, the NAV will be calculated to five decimal places.
Only "Authorized Participants" may purchase or redeem shares directly from the Fund. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. 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 the Fund. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees. Securities received or delivered in connection with in-kind creates and redeems are valued as of the close of business on the effective date of the creation or redemption.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2025(Continued)
Creation Unit Transaction Fee
Authorized Participants will be required to pay to the Custodian a fixed transaction fee (the "Creation Transaction Fee") in connection with the issuance of Creation Units. The standard Creation Transaction Fee will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an investor on the applicable Business Day. The Creation Transaction Fee for the Fund is $300.
An additional variable fee of up to a maximum of 2% of the value of the Creation Units subject to the transaction may be imposed for cash purchases, non-standard orders, or partial purchase of Creation Units. The variable charge is primarily designed to cover additional costs (e.g., brokerage, taxes) involved with buying the securities with cash. The Fund may determine to not charge a variable fee on certain orders when the Adviser has determined that doing so is in the best interests of Fund shareholders.
A creation unit will generally not be issued until the transfer of good title of the deposit securities to the Fund and the payment of any cash amounts have been completed. To the extent contemplated by the applicable participant agreement, Creation Units of the Fund will be issued to such authorized participant notwithstanding the fact that the Fund's deposits have not been received in part or in whole, in reliance on the undertaking of the authorized participant to deliver the missing deposit securities as soon as possible. If the Fund or its agents do not receive all of the deposit securities, or the required cash amounts, by such time, then the order may be deemed rejected and the authorized participant shall be liable to the Fund for losses, if any.
(8) RECENT MARKET EVENTS
U.S. and international markets have experienced and may continue to experience significant periods of volatility in recent years and months due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors including uncertainty regarding inflation and central banks' interest rate changes, the possibility of a national or global recession, trade tensions and tariffs, political events, and geopolitical conflicts. As a result of continuing political tensions and armed conflicts, including the wars in Europe and the Middle East, markets have experienced increased volatility. These developments, as well as other events, could result in further market volatility and negatively affect financial asset prices, the liquidity of certain securities and the normal operations of securities exchanges and other markets, despite government efforts to address market disruptions. Continuing market volatility as a result of recent market conditions or other events may have adverse effects on the performance of the Funds.
(9) New Accounting Pronoucement
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, the amendments require greater disaggregation of disclosures related to income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 allows for early adoption and amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Management is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 but does not expect this guidance to materially impact the financial statements.
(10) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated the Fund's related events and transactions that occurred subsequent to November 30, 2025, through the date of issuance of the Fund's financial statements. Management has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements other than the following:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Convergence Long/Short Equity ETF and
Board of Trustees of Trust for Professional Managers
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments and securities sold short, of Convergence Long/Short Equity ETF (the "Fund"), a series of Trust for Professional Managers, as of November 30, 2025, the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of November 30, 2025, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2025, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the Fund's auditor since 2009.

Item 11. Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contract.
BASIS FOR TRUSTEES' APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
The Board of Trustees (the "Trustees") of Trust for Professional Managers (the "Trust") met on August 27, 2025 to consider the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement") between the Trust, on behalf of the Convergence Long/Short Equity ETF (the "Fund"), a series of the Trust, and Convergence Investment Partners, LLC ("Convergence"), the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"). The Trustees also met at a prior meeting held on June 18, 2025 (the "June 18, 2025 meeting") to review materials related to the renewal of the Agreement. Prior to these meetings, the Trustees requested and received materials to assist them in considering the renewal of the Agreement. The materials provided contained information with respect to the factors enumerated below, including a copy of the Agreement, a memorandum prepared by the Trust's outside legal counsel discussing in detail the Trustees' fiduciary obligations and the factors they should assess in considering the renewal of the Agreement, detailed comparative information relating to the Fund's performance, as well as the management fees and other expenses of the Fund's, due diligence materials relating to the Adviser (including a due diligence questionnaire completed on behalf of the Fund's by the Adviser, the Adviser's Form ADV, select financial statements of the Adviser, biographical information of the Adviser's key management and compliance personnel, comparative fee information for the Fund's and a summary detailing key provisions of the Adviser's written compliance program, including its code of ethics) and other pertinent information. The Trustees also received information periodically throughout the year that was relevant to the Agreement renewal process, including performance, management fee and other expense information. Based on their evaluation of the information provided by the Adviser, in conjunction with the Fund's other service providers, the Trustees, by a unanimous vote (including a separate vote of the Trustees who are not "interested persons," as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Independent Trustees")), approved the continuation of the Agreement for an additional one-year term ending August 31, 2026.
DISCUSSION OF FACTORS CONSIDERED
In considering the renewal of the Agreement and reaching their conclusions, the Trustees reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors enumerated below.
1. NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE FUND
The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser to the Fund and the amount of time devoted to the Fund's operation by the Adviser's staff. The Trustees considered the Adviser's specific responsibilities in all aspects of day-to-day management of the Fund, including the investment strategies implemented by the Adviser, as well as the qualifications, experience and responsibilities of David J. Abitz and Justin Neuberg, the Fund's portfolio managers, and other key

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)(Continued)
personnel at the Adviser involved in the day-to-day activities of the Fund. The Trustees reviewed information provided by the Adviser in a due diligence questionnaire, including the structure of the Adviser's compliance program and its continuing commitment to the Fund. The Trustees noted that during the course of the prior year the Adviser had participated in a Trust board meeting to discuss the Fund's performance and outlook, along with the compliance efforts made by the Adviser, including reports provided by the Adviser in its role as the Fund's valuation designee and derivatives risk manager. The Trustees also noted any services that extended beyond portfolio management, and they considered the brokerage practices of the Adviser. The Trustees discussed the Adviser's handling of compliance matters, including the reports of the Trust's chief compliance officer to the Trustees on the effectiveness of the Adviser's compliance program. The Trustees also considered the Adviser's overall financial condition, as well as the implementation and operational effectiveness of the Adviser's business continuity plan. The Trustees concluded that the Adviser had sufficient quality and depth of personnel, resources, investment methods and compliance policies and procedures essential to performing its duties under the Advisory Agreement and that the nature, overall quality and extent of the management services provided to the Fund, as well as the Adviser's compliance program, were satisfactory and reliable.
2. INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND AND THE ADVISER
The Trustees discussed the performance of the Fund (net asset value returns) for the quarter, one-year, three-year, five-year, ten-year and since inception periods ended March 31, 2025. In assessing the quality of the portfolio management services delivered by the Adviser, the Trustees also compared the short-term and longer-term performance of the Fund on both an absolute basis and in comparison to a benchmark index (the Russell 3000 Total Return Index) and in comparison to a peer group of funds as constructed using publicly-available data provided by Morningstar, Inc. and presented by Barrington Financial Group, LLC d/b/a Barrington Partners, an independent third-party benchmarking firm, through its cohort selection process (a peer group of U.S. long-short equity and U.S. equity hedged exchange-traded funds) (the "Barrington Cohort"). The Trustees noted that the Adviser does not manage any other accounts that utilize strategies similar to those employed by the Fund.
The Trustees noted the Fund's performance for each of the one-year, three-year, five-year, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2025 was above the Barrington Cohort average. The Trustees noted that for the three-year period ended March 31, 2025, the Fund had outperformed the Russell 3000 Total Return Index. The Trustees next noted that for the quarter, one-year, five-year, ten-year and since inception periods ended March 31, 2025, the Fund had underperformed the Russell 3000 Total Return Index.
After considering all of the information, the Trustees concluded that the performance obtained by the Adviser for the Fund was satisfactory under current market conditions. Although past performance is not a guarantee or indication of future results, the Trustees determined that the Fund and its shareholders were likely to benefit from the Adviser's continued management.
3. COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROFITS REALIZED BY THE ADVISER
The Trustees considered the cost of services and the structure of the Adviser's fees, including a review of the expense analyses and other pertinent material with respect to the Fund. The Trustees took into consideration that the management fee was a "unitary management fee" whereby the Adviser agrees to pay all expenses incurred by the Fund, except the unitary management fee payable to the Adviser and certain other excluded expenses of the Fund. The Trustees reviewed the related statistical information and other materials provided, including the comparative expenses and Barrington Cohort comparisons. The Trustees considered the cost structure of the Fund relative to the Barrington Cohort.
The Trustees also considered the overall profitability of the Adviser and reviewed the Adviser's financial information. The Trustees also examined the level of profits that could be expected to accrue to the Adviser from the fees payable under the Advisory Agreement, as well as the Fund's brokerage practices. These considerations were based on materials requested by the Trustees and the Fund's

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)(Continued)
administrator specifically for the June 18, 2025 meeting and the August 27, 2025 meeting at which the Advisory Agreement was formally considered, as well as the reports prepared by the Adviser over the course of the year.
The Trustees noted that the Fund's contractual unitary management fee of 0.95% was above the Barrington Cohort average of 0.78%. The Trustees further noted that the Fund's total expense ratio of 1.44% (which includes dividends and interest on short positions) was above the Barrington Cohort average of 1.07%.
The Trustees concluded that the Fund's expenses and the management fees paid to the Adviser were fair and reasonable in light of the comparative performance, expense and management fee information. The Trustees noted, based on a profitability analysis prepared by the Adviser, that the Adviser's profits from sponsoring the Fund were not excessive.
4. EXTENT OF ECONOMIES OF SCALE AS THE FUND GROWS
The Trustees compared the Fund's expenses relative to its peer group and discussed realized and potential economies of scale. The Trustees also reviewed the structure of the Fund's management fee and whether the Fund was large enough to generate economies of scale for shareholders or whether economies of scale would be expected to be realized as Fund assets grow (and if so, how those economies of scale were being or would be shared with shareholders). The Trustees noted that the Fund's management fee structure did not contain any breakpoint reductions as the Fund's assets grow in size, but that the feasibility of incorporating breakpoints would continue to be reviewed on a regular basis. With respect to the Adviser's fee structure, the Trustees concluded that the current fee structure was reasonable.
5. BENEFITS DERIVED FROM THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FUND
The Trustees considered the direct and indirect benefits that could be received by the Adviser from its association with the Fund. The Trustees examined the brokerage practices of the Adviser with respect to the Fund. The Trustees concluded that the benefits the Adviser may receive, such as greater name recognition and increased ability to attract additional investor assets, appear to be reasonable, and in many cases may benefit the Fund.
CONCLUSIONS
The Trustees considered all of the foregoing factors. In considering the renewal of the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any one factor as all-important, but rather considered these factors collectively in light of the Fund's surrounding circumstances. Based on this review, the Trustees, all of whom are Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year term ending August 31, 2026 as being in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
Tax Information
For the year ended November 30, 2025, the Fund designated 80.65% of its ordinary income distribution as qualified dividend income under the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003.
For the year ended November 30, 2025, 81.93% of dividends paid from net ordinary income for the Fund qualified for the dividends received deduction available to corporate shareholders.
