IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES:
Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) before investing. To obtain an ETF's prospectus containing this and other important information, please call (866) 498-5677 or view/download a prospectus by clicking on the corresponding ETF ticker: SPYI | QQQI | IWMI | NUSI | BTCI | HYBI | BNDI | CSHI | TLTI. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest.
An investment in NEOS ETFs involves risk, including possible loss of principal. The equity securities purchased by the Funds may involve large price swings and potential for loss. Investments in smaller companies typically exhibit higher volatility. Investors in ETFs should be willing to accept a high degree of volatility in the price of fund shares and the possibility of significant losses.
The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) the risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. The use of leverage by the Fund, such as borrowing money to purchase securities or the use of options, will cause the Fund to incur additional expenses and magnify the Fund’s gains or losses. The earnings and prospects of small and medium-sized companies are more volatile than larger companies and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies. Small and medium-sized companies normally have a lower trading volume than larger companies, which may tend to make their market price fall more disproportionately than larger companies in response to selling pressures and may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience. The funds are new with a limited operating history.

Investors should consult with a financial professional regarding their individual circumstances before making investment decisions.
