AMFQX Investment Objective and Strategy

361 Managed Futures Strategy Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Investment Managers Series Trust.

Investment objective

"The investment objective of the 361 Managed Futures Strategy Fund (the ""Fund"") is to seek positive absolute returns that have a low correlation to the returns of broad stock and bond markets."

Principal investment strategy

"In pursuing the Fund's investment objective, the Advisor employs a set of quantitative models to make investment decisions. Using a combination of market inputs, these models systematically identify when to purchase and sell specific investments for the Fund. The Advisor uses these models for the purpose of seeking to achieve favorable returns for the Fund from short-term movements in various U.S. and foreign markets. The Advisor may also use other quantitative models that focus on longer term market trends rather than on identifying short-term purchase and sale opportunities. The Advisor may also base purchase and sale decisions for the Fund on its judgment regarding various market and economic factors rather than its quantitative models. In pursuing its investment objective, the Fund will primarily seek to establish both long and short positions in futures contracts on various U.S.

and foreign equity indices. However, the Advisor's quantitative models will seek to identify periods during which the Fund should not enter into futures contracts. Accordingly, there will be significant periods of time during which the Fund will not hold any long or short futures positions. The Fund will be required to use a portion of its assets as margin for the Fund's futures positions. The amount of margin will be based on the notional value of the futures contracts held by the Fund. The Advisor allocates the Fund's assets not invested in futures or used as margin to a fixed income strategy that invests primarily in investment grade fixed income securities in order to generate interest income. These investments may include collateralized mortgage obligations, which are a type of mortgage-backed security.

The Advisor delegates management of the Fund's fixed income strategy portfolio to Federated Investment Management Company (the ""Sub-Advisor""). The Fund's overall portfolio duration is expected to be less than one year with a weighted average maturity of less than two years. The Fund may hold fixed income securities and liquid money market instruments during periods when the Fund is already invested in futures positions, when the Fund is not invested in futures positions, or as needed to comply with current SEC guidance relating to asset coverage for derivatives investments held by investment companies. As a result, a substantial portion of the Fund's portfolio may be invested in instruments other than futures contracts. While those other investments may contribute to the Fund's performance, the Advisor expects that over time a majority of the Fund's performance will be attributable to the Fund's futures positions.

The Fund may also write put and call options and purchase put and call options on futures, securities indices and shares of ETFs. The Fund may purchase or write options in combination with each other (i.e., simultaneously writing call options and purchasing put options) to adjust the risk and return of its overall investment positions. Futures contracts and put and call options are among the types of instruments commonly referred to as derivatives."
