CLASS ACTION

Part 53: Justice Andrew S. Borrok

SUMMARY NOTICE OF PROPOSED SETTLEMENT OF CLASS ACTION

TO: ALL PERSONS OR ENTITIES THAT EITHER: (I) PURCHASED OR OTHERWISE ACQUIRED INVESTOR SHARES (TICKER SYMBOL IQDAX) AND/OR INSTITUTIONAL SHARES (TICKER SYMBOL IQDNX) IN INFINITY Q DIVERSIFIED ALPHA FUND BETWEEN FEBRUARY 22, 2016 AND FEBRUARY 22, 2021, BOTH DATES INCLUSIVE (THE “CLASS PERIOD”); AND/OR (II) INVESTED THROUGH EITHER THE INFINITY Q VOLATILITY ALPHA FUND, L.P., OR THE INFINITY Q VOLATILITY ALPHA OFFSHORE FUND, LTD. DURING THE CLASS PERIOD

THIS NOTICE WAS AUTHORIZED BY THE COURT. IT IS NOT A LAWYER SOLICITATION. PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY.

YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that a hearing will be held on January 31, 2023, at 2:00 p.m., before the Honorable Andrew Y. Borrok, J.S.C., Supreme Court of New York, County of New York: Commercial Division, 60 Centre Street, Courtroom 238, New York, NY 10007, to determine whether: (1) the proposed settlement of the above-captioned consolidated actions (the “State Action”), along with In re Infinity Q Diversified Alpha Fund and Infinity Q Volatility Alpha Fund Securities Litigation (formerly known as Yang v. Trust for Advised Portfolios, et al.), Case No. 1:21-cv-01047-FB-MMH (E.D.N.Y.), pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (the “Federal Action”) (the State Action and Federal Action together referred to as, the “Litigation”), as set forth in the Amended Stipulation of Settlement (“Stipulation”) dated September 7, 2022, for up to $48,000,000 in cash should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable, and adequate, including consideration of any objections or opt-outs submitted by Class Members; (2) the Judgment, as provided under the Stipulation, should be entered; (3) to award Plaintiffs’ Counsel attorneys’ fees and expenses out of the Settlement Fund (as defined in the Notice of Pendency and Proposed Settlement of Class Action (“Notice”), as discussed below), and, if so, in what amount; (4) to award Lead Plaintiffs for representing the Class out of the Settlement Fund and, if so, in what amount; (5) the Plan of Allocation should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable, and adequate; and (6) to consider any opt-outs or objections received by the Court.

The Litigation collectively refers to the State Action and the Federal Action brought on behalf of persons who invested in the Infinity Q Diversified Alpha Fund, the Infinity Q Volatility Alpha Fund, L.P., or the Infinity Q Volatility Alpha Offshore Fund, Ltd. (the “Funds”) during the Class Period, against parties associated with the Funds for allegedly misstating and omitting material facts from the Registration Statements and Prospectuses filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and in statements made by certain Defendants during the Class Period. Lead Plaintiffs allege that these purportedly false and misleading statements resulted in overstated valuations of the assets held by the Funds, and that the Class Members suffered damages when the truth was revealed. Defendants deny all of Lead Plaintiffs’ allegations.

IF YOU INVESTED IN THE INFINITY Q DIVERSIFIED ALPHA FUND, THE INFINITY Q VOLATILITY ALPHA FUND, L.P., OR THE INFINITY Q VOLATILITY ALPHA OFFSHORE FUND, LTD. BETWEEN FEBRUARY 22, 2016 AND FEBRUARY 22, 2021, YOUR RIGHTS MAY BE AFFECTED BY THE SETTLEMENT OF THE LITIGATION.

To share in the distribution of the Settlement Fund, you must establish your rights by submitting a Proof of Claim and Release form (“Proof of Claim”) by mail (postmarked no later than February 6, 2023) or electronically (no later than 11:59 p.m. on February 6, 2023 at www.InfinityQSecuritiesSettlement.com). Your failure to submit your Proof of Claim by February 6, 2023, will subject your claim to rejection and preclude your receiving any of the recovery in connection with the Settlement of the Litigation. If you are a Member of the Class and do not request exclusion therefrom, you will be bound by the Settlement and any judgment and release entered in the Litigation, including, but not limited to, the Judgment, whether or not you submit a Proof of Claim.

If you have not received a copy of the Notice, which more completely describes the Settlement and your rights thereunder (including your right to object to the Settlement), and a Proof of Claim, you may obtain these documents, as well as a copy of the Stipulation and other settlement documents, online at www.InfinityQSecuritiesSettlement.com, or by writing to:
