IMPORTANTINFORMATION TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND AND VOTE ON THE PROPOSAL

We strongly encourage you to read the full text of the enclosed Proxy Statement. However, as a quick reference, we are also providing you the following questions and answers, which provide a brief overview of the proposal. Your vote is important.

Please note that all defined terms used, but not otherwise defined, in the following questions and answers have the meanings given to them in the Proxy Statement.

QUESTIONSAND ANSWERS

General:

Q.       Whyare you sending me this information?

**A.**You are receiving these proxy materials because you own shares in one or more Funds and have the right to vote on this very important proposal concerning your investment.

Q.       Whatam I being asked to vote on?

**A.**During the Meeting, shareholders of each Fund will be asked to approve a new investment advisory agreement by and between the Trust, on behalf of the relevant Fund, and Segall Bryant & Hamill, LLC.

Q.       Whyam I being asked to vote on proposed New Advisory Agreements?

**A.**On November 24, 2024, the ultimate parent company of SBH, CI Financial Corp. (“CI Financial”), entered into an agreement (the “Agreement”) with Accelerate Holdings Corp. (“Accelerate”), a company ultimately controlled by Mubadala Capital, whereby Accelerate will acquire CI Financial (the “Transaction”). The completion of the Transaction (the “Closing”) is expected to occur in the second calendar quarter of 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory clearances.

Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), a transaction that results in a change of more than 25% of the voting interests of an investment adviser constitutes a “change in control” of the adviser. The 1940 Act further states that a change in control of an investment adviser causes the adviser’s advisory agreement to be “assigned,” which results in the automatic termination of the agreement by the agreement’s terms as required by the 1940 Act. The Closing will constitute a “change in control” of SBH for purposes of the 1940 Act and will cause the “assignment” and automatic termination of the Current Agreement with respect to each Fund. The 1940 Act requires that advisory agreements, such as the New Agreement, be approved by a vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the applicable fund. Therefore, shareholders of each Fund are being asked to approve the proposed New Agreement with respect to that Fund.

6

Q.       Howwill the Transaction or the approval of a New Agreement affect me as a Fund Shareholder?

**A.**The investment objectives and strategies for each Fund will not change as a result of the completion of the Transaction or the approval of the New Agreement. You will still own the same shares in your Fund. The New Agreement will not change the services provided by SBH to any Fund nor will the New Agreement change the day-to-day management of any Fund. Except for the dates of execution, effectiveness, termination, and certain grammatical changes, the New Agreement is identical to the Current Agreement. The fees to be charged under the New Agreementare identical to the fees charged under the Current Agreement.

If approved by shareholders, the New Agreement will have an initial two-year term and will be subject to annual renewal thereafter.

From May 1, 2024, until at least April 30, 2025, SBH has contractually agreed to waive the investment advisory and/or administration fees and/or to reimburse other expenses (not including acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, redemption in kind processing fees, brokerage expenses, class action claim fees, tax reclaim fees, and extraordinary expenses). These agreements may not be terminated or modified by SBH prior to April 30, 2025, without the approval of the Board of Trustees.

Barrett<br> Growth Fund 0.99% N/A
Barrett<br> Opportunity Fund 0.99% N/A

The Interim Agreement will operate upon the change in ownership for a period of 150 days, including any period in which the New Agreement is not approved, and the 150 days has not expired. If shareholders of a Fund do not approve the New Agreement, the New Agreement will not be in effect with respect to that Fund (in other words, the adoption of the New Agreement is not contingent on the approval by shareholders of the New Agreement with respect to each Fund), and the Board may consider all other available options, including, without limitation, liquidating such Fund.

GENERALOVERVIEW

Proposal: Approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreement.

Background

The primary purpose of this proposal is to enable SBH to continue to serve as the investment adviser to the Funds. To do so, the Board is requesting that Shareholders of each Fund approve a new investment advisory agreement between SBH and the Trust, on behalf of such Fund (the “New Agreement”).

On November 24, 2024, the ultimate parent company of SBH, CI Financial Corp. (“CI Financial”), entered into an agreement (the “Agreement”) with Accelerate Holdings Corp. (“Accelerate”), a company ultimately controlled by Mubadala Capital, whereby Accelerate will acquire CI Financial (the “Transaction”). The completion of the Transaction (the “Closing”) is expected to occur in the second calendar quarter of 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory clearances.

Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), a transaction that results in a change of more than 25% of the voting interests of an investment adviser constitutes a “change in control” of the adviser. The 1940 Act further states that a change in control of an investment adviser causes the adviser’s advisory agreement to be “assigned,” which results in the automatic termination of the agreement by the agreement’s terms as required by the 1940 Act. The Closing will constitute a “change in control” of SBH for purposes of the 1940 Act and will cause the “assignment” and automatic termination of the current investment advisory agreement between SBH and the Trust, on behalf of each Fund (the “Current Agreement”). The 1940 Act requires that advisory agreements, such as the New Agreement, be approved by a vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the applicable Fund. Therefore, Shareholders of each Fund are being asked to approve the proposed New Agreement.

At a meeting held on February 13, 2025, the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of SBH, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (“UFD”), Northern Lights Distributors, LLC (“NLD”), or the Trust (collectively, the “Independent Trustees”) approved an interim advisory agreement between the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and SBH (the “Interim Agreement”) as permitted by Rule 15a-4 under the 1940 Act, which will become effective immediately upon the Closing. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, also approved the New Agreement with respect to each Fund, to take effect with respect to a Fund upon Shareholder approval of such Fund.

The Interim Agreement will take effect at the Closing and will be effective for 150 days from that date or until the New Agreement is approved by Shareholders, whichever occurs first. If Shareholder approval of the New Agreement is not obtained with respect to a particular Fund, the Board will consider other available options, including, without limitation, liquidating such Fund.

The Interim Agreement and the New Agreement will not change the services provided by SBH to any Fund nor will the Interim Agreement or the New Agreement change the day-to-day management of each Fund. Except for the date of execution, effectiveness, termination, certain

13

grammatical changes, and other conditions required under the 1940 Act regarding escrow of management fees, the Interim Agreement is identical to the Current Agreement. The fees to be charged under the Interim Agreement and New Agreement are identical to the fees charged under the Current Agreement; however, any fees accrued under the Interim Agreement will be held in escrow until Shareholder approval of the New Agreement is obtained.

Descriptionand Comparison of Current and New Agreements

The form of the New Agreement is set forth in Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement. The description of terms in this section and the summaries in Exhibit B are qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibit A. Exhibit B to this Proxy Statement sets forth the following information with respect to each Fund:

the<br> date of the Current Agreement;
the<br> date on which the Current Agreement was last approved by the Board;
--- ---
the<br> date and purpose on which the Current Agreement was last approved by Shareholders;
--- ---
the<br> advisory fee rate under the Current Agreement;
--- ---
the<br> aggregate amount of SBH’s advisory fee and the amount and purpose of any other payments<br> by the Funds or SBH, or any of its affiliated persons or affiliated person of such person,<br> during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024; and
--- ---
whether<br> SBH has waived, reduced or otherwise agreed to reduce its compensation with respect to a<br> Fund under any applicable contract.
--- ---

Except as described below, the New Agreement is similar in all material respects to the Current Agreement, except that there will be new ownership of SBH and a new commencement date and initial term of the New Agreement.

ServicesProvided

Under the terms of the Current Agreement, SBH serves as the investment adviser for each Fund and, subject to the supervision of the Board, provides a continuous investment program for each Fund, including investment research and management with respect to all securities, investments, cash and cash equivalents in each Fund. SBH determines from time to time what securities and other investments will be purchased, retained or sold by each Fund, and provides such services for each Fund in accordance with each Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions as stated in that Fund’s current prospectus and statement of additional information.

SBH’s responsibilities and obligations under the New Agreement for a Fund will be the same in all material respects to those of SBH under each Current Agreement for that Fund.

14

If the New Agreement is approved by a Fund’s Shareholders, that Fund will enter into a fee waiver letter agreement with SBH with the same terms as the fee waiver letter agreement currently in place, except that the new fee waiver letter agreement will take effect on May 1, 2025 and continue at least through April 30, 2027 with the expense limits for the SBH Emerging Markets Fund reduced to 1.14% and 0.99% for the Retail Class and Institutional Class, respectively, and the expense limits for the SBH International Equity Fund reduced to 0.89% and 0.74% for the Retail Class and Institutional Class, respectively.

Liabilityof SBH

Under the terms of the Current Agreement, SBH will not be liable for any error of judgment or for any loss suffered by a Fund in connection with performance of its obligations under the agreement, except a loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services (in which case any award of damages shall be limited to the period and the amount set forth in Section 36(b)(3) of the 1940 Act), or a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on SBH’s part in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the agreement, except as may otherwise be provided under provisions of applicable state law which cannot be waived or modified hereby.

The New Agreement will provide for limitations of liability for SBH identical to those described above.

16

Termand Termination

The Current Agreement provides for an initial term of two years, with annual renewal thereafter only if such continuance is specifically approved at least annually in conformance with the 1940 Act. The Current Agreement may be terminated, with respect to any Fund, (a) by a Fund at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by the vote of a majority of Trustees or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund, or (b) by SBH at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 60 days’ written notice to the other parties. The Current Agreement shall also terminate automatically in the event of its assignment.

The New Agreement will have a term identical to the Current Agreement (i.e., an initial term of two years, with annual renewal thereafter subject to approval). The commencement date of the New Agreement, with respect to each Fund, is expected to be the later of the Closing Date or the Shareholder approval date.

PortfolioManagement

Each Fund’s portfolio managers are expected to remain the same following the Closing Date.

Board Approval and Recommendation

During its meeting on February 13, 2025, the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) considered various factors relating to the Transaction and the New Agreement. In connection with such meeting, the Board reviewed certain information provided at the Board’s request by SBH and CI Financial.

On February 13, 2025, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees: (i) unanimously approved the New Agreement with respect to each Fund and (ii) unanimously recommended that Shareholders of each Fund approve the New Agreement. A summary of the Board’s considerations is provided below in the section titled “EVALUATION BY THE BOARD.”

Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act

Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act permits an investment adviser of a registered investment company (or any affiliated persons of the investment adviser) to receive any amount or benefit in connection with a sale of an interest in the investment adviser, provided that two conditions are satisfied.

First, an “unfair burden” may not be imposed on the investment company as a result of the sale of the interest, or any express or implied terms, conditions or understandings applicable to the sale of the interest. The term “unfair burden,” as defined in the 1940 Act, includes any arrangement during the two-year period after the transaction whereby the investment adviser (or predecessor or successor adviser), or any “interested person” of the investment adviser (as defined in the 1940 Act), receives or is entitled to receive any compensation, directly or indirectly, from the investment

17

company or its security holders (other than fees for bona fide investment advisory or other services), or from any person in connection with the purchase or sale of securities or other property to, from or on behalf of the investment company (other than ordinary fees for bona fide principal underwriting services).

Second, during the three-year period after the transaction, at least 75% of the members of the investment company’s board of trustees/directors cannot be “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the investment adviser or its predecessor.

The Board intends for the Transaction to come within the safe harbor provided by Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act. The Board has not been advised by SBH or the Purchaser of any circumstances arising from the Transaction that might result in the imposition of an “unfair burden” on the Funds. At the present time, all of the Trustees are classified as Independent Trustees and following the Transaction, all seven of the Independent Trustees will continue to be classified as such. In addition, the term of the contractual expense waiver and reimbursement agreement between the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and SBH will continue at least through April 30, 2027.

OtherInformation

If the Transaction is completed, it is anticipated that the Funds’ names and Trust’s name will remain unchanged.

Effectif the Proposal is Not Approved

If Shareholders of a Fund do not approve the New Agreement, the New Agreement will not go into effect with respect to that Fund (in other words, the adoption of the New Agreement is not contingent on the approval by Shareholders of the New Agreement with respect to each Fund), and the Board may consider all other available options, including, without limitation, closing such Fund.

THEBOARD RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS OF THE FUNDS VOTE “FOR” THE PROPOSAL.

18

EVALUATIONBY THE BOARD

Summaryof Board Meetings and Considerations

The Board of Trustees met on February 12-13, 2025 to evaluate, among other things, the Transaction with Accelerate Holdings and Mubadala Capital (collectively, the “Acquiror”), and to determine whether approving the New Agreement with respect to each Fund would be in the best interests of that Fund’s shareholders. At this meeting and throughout the consideration process, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, was advised by its independent legal counsel.

In their consideration of the New Agreement for each Fund, the Board of Trustees and its counsel reviewed materials furnished by SBH and communicated with senior representatives of SBH and CI Financial, and the parent company of SBH being taken private as part of the Transaction, regarding the personnel and operations of the Acquiror. The Board of Trustees also reviewed the material terms of the New Agreement and considered the possible effects of the Transaction and New Agreement on each Fund and its shareholders.

During this meeting, the representatives of SBH and CI Financial indicated their belief that the Transaction would not adversely affect the continued operation of any Fund and described the ability of SBH to provide the same level of advisory services to any Fund before and after the consummation of the Transaction. Those representatives indicated that they believed that the Transaction may provide certain benefits to one or more Funds, but also indicated that there could be no assurance as to any particular benefits that may result.

In connection with the Board’s recommendation that Shareholders of each Fund approve the New Agreement, the Board of Trustees considered, among others, the following factors, but without identifying any single factor as all-important or controlling:

(i) the assurances from SBH and CI Financial that the manner in which each Fund’s assets are managed will not change in any material manner, that the personnel who currently manage each Fund’s assets will remain substantially the same after the Transaction, and that there is not expected to be any diminution in the nature, quality and extent of services provided to any Fund;

(ii) the fact that the material terms of the New Agreement are the same in all material respects to the material terms of the Current Agreement;

(iii) the agreement by SBH to cause each Fund’s current contractual fee waiver/expense reimbursement arrangement to continue through at least April 30, 2027;

(iv) the history, reputation, qualifications and background of SBH and its respective key personnel;

(v) the fact that shareholders of each Fund will not bear any costs in connection with the Transaction, insofar as SBH has agreed to pay such expenses, including proxy solicitation expenses;

19

(vi) other information provided by representatives of SBH and CI Financial regarding the anticipated impact of the Transaction, including with respect to the operational, administrative and compliance services expected to be provided to the Funds; and

(vii) other factors described in greater detail below.

BoardConsideration of the New Agreement

The 1940 Act requires that the Board review the Funds’ advisory contracts and consider whether to approve them and, as required, to recommend that Shareholders approve them.

SBH informed the Trustees via email on November 26, 2024, which was the day following the public announcement, that CI Financial had entered into a definitive agreement with Accelerate Holdings, a company ultimately controlled by Mubadala Capital, to take CI Financial private.

In anticipation of the Board’s meeting on February 12-13, 2025, and as part of the process to consider the New Agreement with respect to each Fund, legal counsel to the Independent Trustees requested certain information from SBH. In response to these requests, the Independent Trustees received reports from SBH and CI Financial that addressed specific factors to be considered by the Board of Trustees. The Trustees took into consideration the materials provided in connection with its annual review of the Funds’ Current Agreement in the fourth quarter of 2024, as supplemented by the information provided in connection with its February 2025 meeting. The Board also received from counsel a memorandum regarding the Board’s responsibilities pertaining to the approval of advisory contracts in general, as well as with respect to the New Agreement.

As part of its evaluation, the Trustees received and considered information from SBH regarding the general plans and intentions regarding each Fund. The Board also inquired about the plans for, and anticipated roles and responsibilities of, the employees and officers of SBH in connection with the Transaction, including the anticipated senior management structure following the Closing Date. The Independent Trustees met to consider SBH’s and CI Financial’s recommendations in favor of recommending Shareholder approval of the New Agreement with respect to each Fund. During the review process, the Board noted certain instances where clarification or follow-up was appropriate and others where the Board determined that further clarification or follow-up was not necessary. In those instances where clarification or follow-up was requested, the Board determined that, in each case, either information responsive to its requests had been provided, or where any request was outstanding in whole or in part, given the totality of the information provided with respect to the agreements, the Board had received sufficient information to approve the New Agreement. Based on its evaluation, the Board unanimously concluded that the terms of the New Agreement were reasonable and fair and that its approval was in the best interests of each Fund and its Shareholders.

In approving SBH to continue serving as investment adviser to the Funds and the fees charged under the New Agreement, the Board concluded that no single factor reviewed by the Board was identified by the Board to be determinative as the principal factor in whether to approve the continuation of the New Agreement with respect to each Fund. The following summary does not identify all the matters considered by the Board but provides a summary of the principal matters the Board considered.

20

Nature,Extent and Quality of the Services under the Advisory Agreement

The Board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided or to be provided to each Fund under the New Agreement. The Trustees reviewed, among other items, certain background materials supplied by SBH, including its Form ADV.

The Board reviewed and considered SBH’s investment advisory personnel, its history as an asset manager, its performance and the amount of assets currently under management by SBH, and reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the management teams to be primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of each Fund and the extent of the resources devoted to research and analysis of actual and potential investments. The Board also reviewed the research and decision-making processes utilized by SBH, including the methods adopted to seek to achieve compliance with the investment objectives, policies, and restrictions of each Fund. As part of that review, the Board noted that the Investment Review Committee reviews the performance of the Funds on a quarterly basis and the Board discussed with SBH the performance returns achieved over various time frames and the factors leading to that positive or negative, absolute and relative performance, as appropriate, including the approaches and techniques under consideration by SBH to seek to improve the performance of those underperforming Funds. The Board also reviewed accompanying compliance-related materials with respect to the Trust, and not a particular Fund, and noted that they received reports on these services and compliance issues from Trust officers and SBH periodically throughout the year. Taking into account the totality of the information considered, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services to be rendered by SBH under the New Agreement were adequate.

InvestmentAdvisory Fee Rate

The Board considered certain information provided regarding the gross investment advisory fee rate paid or to be paid by each Fund, including comparisons against the fee rates of funds in peer groups selected by an independent provider of investment company data. The Board noted that the gross investment advisory fee rate to be paid to SBH by each Fund under the New Agreement was lower than or within an acceptable range of its peer group median.

21

The Board noted the following information regarding each class of each Fund’s gross advisory fee quartile ranking relative to its peer group, where the first quartile includes the funds with the lowest advisory fees in the applicable peer group:

ExpenseRatios

The Board considered certain information provided regarding the total net expense ratio of each Fund, including comparisons against the net expense ratios of funds in peer groups selected by an independent provider of investment company data. The Board noted that the total net expense ratio for each Fund was lower than or near its peer group median, with the exception of the Emerging Markets Fund, which, as compared to its peer group, was in the fourth quartile for the institutional class and third quartile for the retail class, and the institutional class of the International Equity Fund, which was in the fourth quartile of its peer group.

The Board noted the following information regarding each class of each Fund’s total net expense ratio quartile ranking relative to its peer group, where the first quartile includes the funds with the lowest total net expense ratios in the applicable peer group:

The Board reviewed performance information provided in connection with the Board’s September 30 and October 1, 2024, meeting (the “October Meeting”) for each Fund for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year (as applicable), and since inception periods ended June 30, 2024. The review included a comparison of each Fund’s performance to the performance of a group of comparable funds selected by an independent provider of research data.

24

ComparableAccounts

The Board received and considered certain information provided by SBH regarding fees charged and types of services provided to certain of its other clients utilizing strategies similar to those employed for the Funds. In particular, the Board received information regarding the typical fee rates and associated breakpoints used by SBH for its strategies.

The Board also noted the limitations of these comparisons given the differences in terms of strategy and processes but determined that, based on the information presented, the comparable account fee rates were not indicative of any unreasonableness with respect to the advisory fee rates to be paid by the Funds in question.

AdviserProfitability

The Board received a detailed actual and projected profitability analysis with respect to the Funds prepared by SBH based on the fees payable under the New Agreement. The Board was also provided with CI Financial’s audited financial information. The Board also considered SBH’s statements regarding its commitment to the Funds. The Board determined that SBH’s profitability and projected profitability in connection with its management of the Funds is not unreasonable.

Economiesof Scale

The Board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to each Fund are being or will be passed along to the shareholders. The Board noted SBH’s statements indicating that it has experienced economies of scale in connection with its management of the Funds in light of the expense limitation agreements in effect for certain of the Funds. To the extent available, the Board concluded that the Funds could be expected to share in economies of scale realized by SBH if Fund assets were to increase and potential methods for sharing those economies of scale.

OtherBenefits

The Board also reviewed and considered any other benefits derived or to be derived by SBH from its relationship with each Fund, including soft dollar arrangements and publicity related to the Funds.

Conclusions

Taking into account the information considered by the Board at its meetings, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, concluded that:

The<br> nature, extent and quality of services to be rendered by SBH under the New Agreement were<br> adequate;
25
Taking<br> into account the totality of the information presented, each Fund’s gross advisory<br> fee rate was within an acceptable range of its peer group;
The<br> total net expense ratios for each Fund were lower than or near their respective peer group<br> medians, with the exception of the Emerging Markets Fund and the institutional class of the<br> International Equity Fund, and, after considering the totality of the information presented<br> by SBH regarding each Fund’s total net expense ratios, each Fund’s total net<br> expense ratios were within an acceptable range of the peer group median;
--- ---
Except<br> for the SBH Select Equity ETF, which had not yet achieved a full year of performance history<br> as of June 30, 2024, based on an evaluation of each Fund’s performance over the one-,<br> three-, five-, and ten-year (as applicable) and since inception periods ended June 30, 2024,<br> and on the additional information provided by SBH regarding the cause of the underperformance<br> of certain Funds over certain periods relative to their respective peer group medians, the<br> performance of each class of each Fund over one or more of such periods was within an acceptable<br> range of its peer group median;
--- ---
Bearing<br> in mind the limitations of comparing different types of managed accounts and the different<br> levels of service typically associated with such accounts, the fee structures applicable<br> to certain of SBH’s other clients employing strategies comparable to those of certain<br> of the Funds, as applicable, were not indicative of any unreasonableness with respect to<br> the advisory fee rates to be paid by each Fund; and
--- ---
To<br> the extent available, the Funds could be expected to share in economies of scale to be realized<br> by SBH if Fund assets were to increase.
--- ---

Based on its evaluation of the aforementioned considerations, and taking into account the Transaction-specific factors enumerated above, the Board of Trustees unanimously voted to approve the New Agreement for each Fund, and to recommend to the Shareholders of each Fund that they approve the New Agreement.

Paymentof Solicitation Expenses

SBH will pay the expenses of the preparation, printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement and its enclosures and of all solicitations. Okapi Partners, LLC, a proxy solicitation firm, has been engaged to assist in the solicitation of proxies. The aggregate cost of the proxy solicitation is expected to be approximately $500,000.

Deliveryof Proxy Statement

In certain circumstances, only one copy of this Proxy Statement may be mailed to each household, even if more than one person in the household is a Shareholder, unless that Fund has received contrary instructions from one or more of the household’s Shareholders. If a Shareholder needs an additional copy of this Proxy Statement, would like to receive separate copies in the future, or would like to request delivery of a single copy to Shareholders sharing an address, please contact 1-844-343-2625.

OtherBusiness

The Board does not intend to bring any matters before the Meeting other than the proposal described in this Proxy Statement, and the Board is not aware of any other matters to be brought

44

before the Meeting by others. Because matters not known at the time of the solicitation may come before the Meeting, the proxy as solicited confers discretionary authority with respect to such matters as properly come before the Meeting, including any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, and it is the intention of the persons named as attorneys-in-fact in the proxy (or their substitutes) to vote the proxy in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

ShareholderCommunications with Board of Trustees

Shareholders may mail written communications to the Board, to committees of the Board or to specified individual Trustees in care of the Secretary of the Trust, Segall Bryant & Hamill Trust, 225 Pictoria Drive, Suite 450, Cincinnati, Ohio 45246. All Shareholder communications received by the Secretary will be forwarded promptly to the Board, the relevant Board committee or the specified individual Trustees, as applicable, except that the Secretary may, in good faith, determine that a Shareholder communication should not be so forwarded if it does not reasonably relate to the Trust or its operations, management, activities, policies, service providers, Board, officers, shareholders or other matters relating to an investment in a Fund or is purely ministerial in nature.

Submissionof Certain Shareholder Proposals

The Trust is generally not required to hold annual meetings of shareholders, and the Trust generally does not hold a meeting of shareholders in any year, unless certain specified shareholder actions, such as the election of trustees or the approval of a new advisory agreement, are required to be taken under state law or the 1940 Act. By observing this policy, the Trust seeks to avoid the expenses customarily incurred in the preparation of proxy materials and the holding of shareholders’ meetings, as well as the related expenditure of staff time.

A shareholder desiring to submit a proposal intended to be presented at any meeting of shareholders of a Fund hereafter called should send the proposal to the Secretary of the Trust at the Trust’s principal offices at 225 Pictoria Drive, Suite 450, Cincinnati, Ohio 45246 within a reasonable time before the solicitation of proxies for such meeting occurs. The mere submission of a proposal by a shareholder does not guarantee that such proposal will be included in the proxy statement because certain rules under the federal securities laws must be complied with before inclusion of the proposal is required. Also, the submission does not mean that the proposal will be presented at the Meeting. For a shareholder proposal to be considered at a shareholders’ meeting, it must be a proper matter for consideration under Massachusetts law.

Reportsto Shareholders and Financial Statements

The Annual Shareholder Report of each Fund has previously been sent to Fund shareholders. Upon request, a Fund’s most recent AnnualFinancial Statements and Additional Information and subsequent semi-annual reports (when available) can be obtained at no cost. To request a report for the Funds, please call 1-800-392-2673 or write to Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC, P.O. Box 46707 Cincinnati, Ohio 45246-0707. You can also obtain the Funds’ annual and semi-annual reports and other information by visiting www.cisbh.com/funds.

VOTINGINFORMATION

VotingRights

Only Shareholders of record of a Fund on the Record Date may vote. Shareholders of record on the Record Date are entitled to be present and to vote at the Meeting. Each share or fractional share is entitled to one vote or fraction thereof.

Each proxy solicited by the Board which is properly executed and returned in time to be voted at the Meeting will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions on the proxy. Any proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its use by written notification received by the Trust’s Secretary, by the execution and delivery of a later-dated proxy, or by participating in the Meeting and voting then. Any letter of revocation or later-dated proxy must be received by the applicable Fund prior to the Meeting and must indicate your name and account number to be effective. Proxies voted by telephone or Internet may be revoked at any time before they are voted at the Meeting in the same manner that proxies voted by mail may be revoked.

Each Fund understands that the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) has taken the position that broker-dealers that are members of the NYSE and that have not received instructions from a customer prior to the date specified in the broker-dealer firms’ request for voting instructions may not vote such customer’s shares on a new investment advisory contract. Therefore, NYSE broker-dealers that have not received customer instructions will not be permitted to vote customer shares with respect to the proposal. A signed proxy card or other authorization by a beneficial owner of Fund shares that does not specify how the beneficial owner’s shares are to be voted on the proposal may be deemed to be an instruction to vote such shares in favor of the proposal.

For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Meeting, abstentions and broker “non-votes” (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in “street name,” as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and (ii) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter) will not be treated as shares that are present for purposes of determining a quorum with respect to the Meeting. For purposes of determining the approval of the proposals, abstentions and broker non-votes do not count as votes cast with respect to a proposal. Accordingly, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a vote against Proposal.

Quorum;Adjournment

For each Fund, at least a majority of the shares outstanding on the Record Date and entitled to vote, present and in person or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business by the Shareholders. The presence of a quorum alone, however, is not sufficient to approve the proposal (see “Voting Required” below). In the event a quorum is not present at the Meeting, or a quorum is present at the Meeting, but sufficient votes to approve the proposal have not been received or in the discretion of such persons, the Chairman of the meeting or persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting. In the event of an adjournment, no notice is required other than an announcement at the Meeting at which adjournment is taken.

46

VotingRequired

Approval of the proposal requires an affirmative vote of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of each Fund as defined in the 1940 Act. This means the lesser of (1) 67% or more of the shares of that Fund that are present at the Meeting or represented by proxy, if holders of shares representing more than 50% of the outstanding shares of that Fund are present or represented by proxy or (2) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of that Fund.

To assure the presence of a quorum at the Meeting (which will allow for the transaction of business), and to help assure that your vote is noted, please promptly execute and return the enclosed proxy. A self-addressed, postage-paid envelope is enclosed for your convenience. Alternatively, you may vote by telephone or through the Internet at the number or website address printed on the enclosed proxy card(s).

Should Shareholders require additional information regarding the proxy or replacement proxy cards, they may contact Okapi Partners, LLC toll free at 1-844-343-2625. Representatives are available Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time and Saturday, 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

FORMOF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

SEGALLBRYANT AND HAMILL, LLC

INVESTMENTADVISORY AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT made as of XXXXX, XX, 2025 between SEGALL BRYANT & HAMILL TRUST, a Massachusetts business trust (the “Trust”), and SEGALL BRYANT AND HAMILL, LLC (the “Investment Adviser”), a Delaware limited liability company.

WHEREAS, the Trust is registered as an open-end, management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”);

WHEREAS, the Trust has retained the Investment Adviser to furnish investment advisory and other services to the Trust for the series listed in Exhibit A and for other series of the Trust as agreed to by the parties from time to time (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”);

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants herein contained, it is agreed between the parties hereto as follows:

1.            Appointment.

(a)       The Trust hereby appoints the Investment Adviser to act as investment adviser to each Fund, in each case, for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Investment Adviser accepts such appointment and agrees to furnish the services herein set forth for the compensation herein provided.

(b)       In the event that the Trust establishes one or more series or portfolios other than the Funds with respect to which it desires to retain the Investment Adviser to act as investment adviser hereunder, it shall notify the Investment Adviser in writing. If the Investment Adviser is willing to render such services under this Agreement, it shall notify the Trust in writing whereupon such series or portfolio shall become a Fund hereunder and shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as each Fund except to the extent that said provisions (including those relating to the compensation payable by the Trust to the Investment Adviser) are modified with respect to such Fund in writing by the Trust and the Investment Adviser at the time.

2.            Deliveryof Documents.

The Trust has furnished the Investment Adviser with copies properly certified or authenticated of each of the following:

(a)       The Trust’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, as filed with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on November 19, 1987, and all amendments thereto (such Declaration of Trust, as presently in effect and as it shall from time to be amended, is herein called the “Declaration of Trust”); and

A-1

(b)       The Trust’s Code of Regulations and amendments thereto.

The Trust will furnish the Investment Adviser from time to time with copies of all amendments of or supplements to the foregoing, if any.

3.            Management.

Subject to the supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees, the Investment Adviser will, either directly or indirectly by employing one or more suitable sub-advisers (each, a “Sub-Adviser” and collectively, the “Sub-Advisers”), provide a continuous investment program for each Fund, including investment research and management with respect to all securities, investments, cash and cash equivalents in each Fund. The Investment Adviser will, either directly or indirectly by employing one or more suitable Sub-Advisers, determine from time to time what securities and other investments will be purchased, retained or sold by each Fund. The Investment Adviser will provide the services rendered by it under this Agreement in accordance with each Fund’s investment objective, policies and restrictions as stated in the prospectus for each Fund and resolutions of the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investment Adviser shall:

(a)       Furnish to the Board of Trustees statistical and economic information as may be requested;

(b)       Provide and, as necessary, re-evaluate and update or recommend potential changes to the investment objectives, strategies and policies of the Funds;

(c) Advise and assist the officers of the Trust in taking such steps as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the decisions of the Board of Trustees and the appropriate committees of the Board of Trustees regarding the conduct of the business of the Trust insofar as it relates to the Trust; and

(d)       Furnish, on behalf of the Trust, all other services of whatever nature that the Investment Adviser from time to time reasonably determines to be necessary or useful in connection with the investment management of each Fund as provided under this section.

4.            Sub-Advisersand Sub-Contractors.

Each Sub-Adviser shall perform its duties subject to the direction and control of the Investment Adviser. Subject to the discretion and control of the Trust’s Board of Trustees, the Investment Adviser will monitor, supervise and oversee each Sub-Adviser’s management of the Funds’ investment operations in accordance with the investment objective and related investment policies and restrictions of the Funds, as set forth in the Funds’ registration statement with the SEC, and review and report to the Trust’s Board of Trustees periodically on the performance of each Sub-Adviser and recommend action as appropriate. In addition, the Investment Adviser may employ, engage or sub-contract services to other parties as the Investment Adviser believes to be appropriate or necessary to assist in the performance of any of the services hereunder.

A-2

5.            OtherCovenants.

The Investment Adviser agrees that it:

(a)       Will comply with all applicable Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and will conduct its activities under this Agreement in accordance with other applicable law;

(b)       Will place orders pursuant to its investment determinations for each Fund either directly with the issuer or with any broker or dealer. In executing portfolio transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Investment Adviser will use its best efforts to seek on behalf of each Fund the best overall terms available. In assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction, the Investment Adviser shall consider all factors that it deems relevant, including the breadth of the market in the security, the price of the security, the financial condition and execution capability of the broker or dealer, and the reasonableness of the commission, if any, both for the specific transaction and on a continuing basis. In evaluating the best overall terms available, and in selecting the broker-dealer to execute a particular transaction, the Investment Adviser may also consider the brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) provided to each Fund and/or other accounts over which the Investment Adviser or an affiliate of the Investment Adviser exercises investment discretion. The Investment Adviser is authorized, subject to the prior approval of the Trust’s Board of Trustees, to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for each Fund which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if, but only if, the Investment Adviser determines in good faith that such commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer viewed in terms of that particular transaction or in terms of the overall responsibilities of the Investment Adviser to the Fund. In addition, the Investment Adviser is authorized in allocating purchase and sales orders for portfolio securities to brokers or dealers (including brokers and dealers that are affiliated with the Investment Adviser or the Trust’s principal underwriter) to take into account the sale of shares of the Trust by the broker or dealer if the Investment Adviser believes that the quality of the transaction and the commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified firms. In no instance, however, will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to the Investment Adviser, the Trust’s principal underwriter or any affiliated person of either the Trust, the Investment Adviser or the principal underwriter, acting as principal in the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

6.            ServicesNot Exclusive.

The services furnished by the Investment Adviser hereunder are deemed not to be exclusive, and the Investment Adviser shall be free to manage and furnish similar services to other investment accounts, including accounts with investment objectives and/or strategies identical or similar to those of a Fund, provided that the Adviser will undertake no activities which, in its judgment, will adversely affect the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. To the extent that the purchase or sale of securities or other investments of the same issuer may be deemed by the Investment Adviser to be suitable for a Fund and one or more other accounts managed by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser shall treat the Fund fairly and allocate investment opportunities in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duty to the Fund.

7.            Booksand Records.

In compliance with the requirements of Rule 31a-3 under the 1940 Act, the Investment Adviser hereby agrees that all records which it maintains for the Funds are the property of the Trust and further agrees to surrender promptly to the Trust any of such records upon the Trust’s request. The Investment Adviser further agrees to preserve for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act the records required to be maintained by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act.

(a)       For the services provided and the expenses assumed pursuant to this Agreement, the Trust will pay the Investment Adviser and the Investment Adviser will accept as full compensation therefore a fee for each Fund, computed daily and payable monthly, based on the calculation specified for such Fund in Exhibit A. As this Agreement covers multiple Funds of the Trust, fees that are attributable to each Fund shall be a separate charge to such portfolio and shall be the several (and not joint or joint and several) obligation of each such Fund.

(b)       If it is necessary to calculate the fee for a period of time that is less than a month, then the fee shall be (i) calculated at the rate specified in Exhibit A but prorated for the number of days elapsed in the month in question as a percentage of the total number of days in such month, (ii) based upon the average of such Fund’s daily net asset value for the period in question, and (iii) paid within a reasonable time after the close of such period.

10.          Limitationof Liability.

The Investment Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with the performance of this Agreement, except a loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services or a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Investment Adviser in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

11.          Durationand Termination.

This Agreement shall become effective as of the date hereof and, unless sooner terminated as provided herein, shall continue in effect with respect to each Fund until the initial termination date specified in Exhibit A. Thereafter, if not terminated, this Agreement shall automatically continue in effect as to a particular fund for successive annual periods, provided such continuance is specifically approved at least annually (a) by the vote of a majority of those members of the Trust’s Board of Trustees who are not interested persons of any party to this Agreement, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, and (b) by the Trust’s Board of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such fund.

or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund), or by the Investment Adviser on sixty days written notice. This Agreement will immediately terminate in the event of its assignment. (As used in this Agreement, the terms “majority of the outstanding voting securities,” “interested persons” and “assignment” shall have the same meaning as such terms have in the 1940 Act.)

12.          Amendmentof this Agreement.

No provision of this Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. To the extent required under the 1940 Act, no amendment of this Agreement shall be effective as to a particular Fund until approved (i) by a vote of a majority of the members of the Trust’s Board of Trustees who are not parties to the Agreement or “interested persons” of any party to this Agreement, and (ii) by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund. The amendment of Exhibit A to this Agreement for the sole purpose of (i) adding or deleting one or more Funds or (ii) making other non-material changes to the information included in the Exhibit shall not be deemed an amendment of this Agreement.

13.          Miscellaneous.

The captions in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and in no way define or delimit any of the provisions hereof or otherwise affect their construction or effect. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. This Agreement shall be binding and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and, to the extent that federal securities laws do not apply, shall be governed by Colorado law. To the extent that applicable laws of Colorado conflict with the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act, the latter shall control. In addition, where the effect of a requirement of the 1940 Act reflected in any provision of this Agreement is modified or interpreted by any applicable order or orders of the SEC or any rules or regulations adopted by, or interpretative releases of the SEC thereunder, such provision will be deemed to incorporate the effect of such order, rule, regulation or interpretative release.
