This new structure offers many of the benefits of traditional ETFs, such as tax efficiency and intraday liquidity while facilitating active portfolio management by shielding proprietary information, such as trades and holdings. The benefits
of the novel structure of active ETFs are described in the chart below.

Introducing the Alger 35 ETF
These ETFs are different from traditional ETFs.
Traditional ETFs tell the public what assets they hold each day. These ETFs will not. This may create additional risks for your investment. Specifically:
You may have to pay more money to trade the ETF’s shares. These ETFs will provide less information to traders, who tend to charge more for trades when they have less information.
The price you pay to buy ETF shares on an exchange may not match the value of the ETF’s portfolio. The same is true when you sell shares. These price differences may be greater for these ETFs compared to other ETFs because they provide less information to traders.
These additional risks may be even greater in bad or uncertain market conditions.
The differences between these ETFs and other ETFs may also have advantages. By keeping certain information about the ETFs confidential, these ETFs may face less risk that other traders can predict or copy its investment strategy. This may improve the ETF’s performance. If other traders are able to copy or predict the ETF’s investment strategy, however, this may hurt the ETF’s performance. For additional information regarding the unique attributes and risks of these ETFs, please refer to the prospectus.

Important Disclosures: The Fund is an actively managed ETF that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. The Fund does not provide daily disclosure of its portfolio holdings, but instead provides a verified intraday indicative value (“VIIV”) calculated and disseminated every second throughout the trading day. The VIIV is designed to be a highly correlated per share value of the underlying portfolio, but there is a risk that market price of the Fund may vary significantly from its NAV. The VIIV Calculation Methodology and a historical daily comparison of the Fund’s VIIV to its NAV is available on www.alger.com. The Fund trading on the basis of a VIIV may trade at a wider bid/ask spread than ETFs that publish their portfolios on a daily basis, especially during periods of market disruption or volatility, and, therefore, may cost investors more to trade. Although the Fund seeks to benefit from keeping its portfolio information confidential, market participants may attempt to identify a Fund’s trading strategy, which, if successful, could result in such market participants engaging in certain predatory trading practices that may have the potential to harm the Fund and its shareholders. The Fund’s shares trade in the secondary market on NYSE Arca, Inc. and therefore may experience associated risks, such as the potential lack of an active market for Fund shares, losses from trading in secondary markets, periods of high volatility, and disruptions in the creation and/or redemption process of the Fund. Any of these factors may cause the Fund’s’ shares to trade at a premium or discount to NAV. Creations and redemptions in the Fund occur through an agent called an “AP Representative” who is not obligated to engage in creations or redemptions. The Fund may have a limited number of AP Representatives and if AP Representatives are not able to proceed with creations and/or redemptions the Fund’s shares may trade at a discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting, and investors could experience significant losses as a result.
Risk Disclosures: Investing in the stock market involves risks, including the potential loss of principal. Growth stocks may be more volatile than other stocks as their prices tend to be higher in relation to their companies’ earnings and may be more sensitive to market, political, and economic developments. Local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness such as COVID-19 or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on investments. A significant portion of assets may be invested in securities of companies in related sectors, and may be similarly affected by economic, political, or market events and conditions and may be more vulnerable to unfavorable sector developments. Investing in companies of small and medium capitalizations involve the risk that such issuers may have limited product lines or financial resources, lack management depth, or have limited liquidity. The Fund is classified as a “non-diversified fund” under federal securities laws because it can invest in fewer individual companies than a diversified fund. Assets may be focused in a small number of holdings, making them susceptible to risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory event than a more diversified portfolio. Active trading may increase transaction costs, brokerage commissions, and taxes, which can lower the return on investment.

ETFs and mutual funds are both subject to capital gains taxes, but ETFs may offer investors some tax efficiencies. First, ETFs are bought and sold on the secondary market, which means managers don’t have to buy/sell the underlying securities. Second, the creation/redemption of shares are done “in-kind,” which may offer more tax efficiency to investors.
TAX EFFICIENCY
These ETFs trade on an exchange, just like an individual stock. This gives you the ability to enter or
exit a position at any point
during the day.
Investors can make intraday decisions and not have to wait
until the end of the day when an NAV is struck.
