Kurv Technology Titans Select ETF |
Dear Shareholder,
We are reaching out to request your assistance as a valued shareholder of the Kurv Technology Titans Select ETF (the "Fund"). The Fund is scheduled to hold an upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders on October 29, 2026. Enclosed are proxy materials describing an important proposal shareholders are being asked to vote on in connection with the meeting. While the full details are included in the proxy statement, we have also summarized the key points below for your convenience. We encourage you to review the materials and submit your vote as soon as possible.
| KEY HIGHLIGHTS |
| NO CHANGE IN ADVISORY FEE RATES | NO CHANGE IN DAY-TO-DAY MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND | NO CHANGE IN THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE OR STRATEGIES | ||
| Approval of the New Advisory Agreement is required because the Original Advisory Agreement between the Kurv ETF Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and the Adviser terminated on July 22, 2026, due to an administrative oversight, whereby the Original Advisory Agreement was not re-approved prior to the end of its initial two-year term. Since that time, Kurv has continued to provide the Fund with investment advisory services pursuant to an Interim Advisory Agreement between the Kurv ETF Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and the Adviser, that was approved by the Board on August 4, 2026. In order to ensure that Kurv can continue to serve as the Fund's investment adviser, the New Advisory Agreement must be approved by shareholders. The material terms of the proposed New Advisory Agreement are identical to the material terms of the Original Advisory Agreement except for effective date. | ||||

Your clients who held shares of KQQQ as of the August 26, 2026, record date are being asked to vote on a proposal to approve a new advisory agreement between Kurv and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund.
