Nicholas Bitcoin Tail ETF
Fund Summary
BHDG is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) that seeks to achieve its investment objective by implementing an options-based strategy designed to hedge against significant declines in the price of bitcoin and/or bitcoin-related investments. The Fund is designed for investors that are seeking such a hedge or seeking to benefit from a decline in the price of bitcoin.
The Fund does not invest directly in bitcoin or any other digital assets. The Fund does not invest in or seek direct exposure to the current “spot” or cash price of bitcoin. Investors seeking direct exposure to the price of bitcoin should consider an investment other than the Fund. Although bitcoin may be referred to as a “cryptocurrency,” it is not yet widely accepted as a means of payment.
Fund Objective
Under normal market conditions, the Fund’s portfolio will primarily consist of:
- Long put options on Bitcoin Underlying Funds and/or a Bitcoin Index which are used to provide downside protection during periods of significant declines in the price of bitcoin.
- Sold call options or call spread positions on Bitcoin Underlying Funds and/or a Bitcoin Index, which are used to help finance the cost of purchasing the Fund’s long put options.
The Fund seeks to perform as follows during the indicated market scenarios:
- Bitcoin declines sharply: The Fund’s long put options on bitcoin are designed to rise in value as bitcoin prices fall.
- Bitcoin remains stable: The long-put options held by the Fund may expire worthless, resulting in a loss equal to the net premium paid for those positions.
- Bitcoin rises in value. The long-put options will lose value as bitcoin’s price increases. Losses are expected to be capped at the maximum loss of the call spreads.

Fund Details
*The 30-Day SEC Yield is calculated with a standardized formula mandated by the SEC. The formula is based on the maximum offering price per share and does not reflect waivers in effect.
**The most recent distribution on XX/XX/XXXX contains X.XX% return of capital and XX.XX% income.
**The Distribution Rate is the annual rate an investor would receive if the most recently declared distribution remained the same going forward. The Distribution Rate is calculated by multiplying an ETF’s Distribution per Share by twelve (12) and dividing the resulting amount by the ETF’s most recent NAV. The Distribution Rate represents a single distribution from the ETF and does not represent its total return. Distributions are not guaranteed.
Fund Data & Price
*30-Day Median Spread is a calculation of Fund’s median bid-ask spread, expressed as a percentage rounded to the nearest hundredth, computed by: identifying the Fund’s national best bid and national best offer as of the end of each 10 second interval during each trading day of the last 30 calendar days; dividing the difference between each such bid and offer by the midpoint of the national best bid and national best offer; and identifying the median of those values.
Performance
The performance data quoted above represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Performance current to the most recent month-end can be obtained by calling (855) 563-6900.
Short term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the fund’s future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on historical returns. Returns beyond 1 year are annualized.
A fund’s NAV is the sum of all its assets less any liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding. The market price is the most recent price at which the fund was traded.
