Current performance may be higher or lower than performance quoted above. Any performance data quoted represents past performance and the investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns shown above include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains. Performance results do not include adjustments made for financial reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may differ from the amount reported in the Financial Highlights. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month end by calling 1-800-295-4485 or going to www.arbitragefunds.com.

* Class R inception: 9/18/00; Class I inception: 10/17/03; Class C inception: 6/1/12; Class A inception: 6/1/13. The "Since Inception" returns for securities indices are for the inception date of Class R shares.

** Class C shares are subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge on all purchases redeemed within 12 months of purchase.

*** Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales load of 2.75% on purchases up to $250,000. The shares are also subject to a deferred sales charge of up to 1.00% on purchases of $250,000 or more purchased without a front-end sales charge and redeemed within 18 months of purchase.

**** Merger arbitrage and event-driven investing are market neutral investment strategies, which typically exhibit low betas and low correlations to broad equity and credit market indices. As such, the adviser has determined that a more appropriate benchmark for Arbitrage Fund is a measure of the risk-free rate, in this case the ICE Bank of America (BofA) Merrill Lynch U.S. 3-Month Treasury Bill Index.

The Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses for Class R, Class I, Class C and Class A are 1.71%, 1.46%, 2.46% and 1.71%, respectively. These expense ratios are as stated in the current prospectus and may differ from the expense ratios disclosed in the financial highlights in this report.

The ICE BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. 3-Month Treasury Bill Index tracks the performance of the U.S. dollar denominated U.S. Treasury Bills publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market with a remaining term to final maturity of less than 3 months.

An investor may not invest directly in an index.

Current performance may be higher or lower than performance quoted above. Any performance data quoted represents past performance, and the investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns shown above include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains. Performance results do not include adjustments made for financial reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may differ from the amount reported in the Financial Highlights. Contractual fee waivers are currently in effect. Without such fee waivers, performance numbers would be reduced. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month end by calling 1-800-295-4485 or going to www.arbitragefunds.com.

* Class R and Class I inception: 10/1/10; Class C inception: 6/1/12; Class A inception: 6/1/13. The "Since Inception" returns for securities indices are for the inception date of Class R and Class I shares.

** Class C shares are subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge on all purchases redeemed within 12 months of purchase.

*** Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales load of 3.25% of the offering price and are also subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales load on purchases at or above $250,000 purchased without a front-end sales charge and redeemed within 18 months of purchase.

**** Merger arbitrage and event-driven investing are market neutral investment strategies, which typically exhibit low betas and low correlations to broad equity and credit market indices. As such, the adviser has determined that a more appropriate benchmark for Water Island Event-Driven Fund is a measure of the risk-free rate, in this case the ICE Bank of America (BofA) Merrill Lynch U.S. 3-Month Treasury Bill Index.

The Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses for Class R, Class I, Class C and Class A are 2.06%, 1.81%, 2.81% and 2.06%, respectively. The Adviser has agreed to waive fees (not including the effects of interest, dividends on short positions, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, or other extraordinary expenses) in excess of 1.69%, 1.44%, 2.44% and 1.69% for Class R, Class I, Class C and Class A, respectively, until at least September 30, 2021. These expense ratios are as stated in the current prospectus and may differ from the expense ratios disclosed in the financial highlights in this report.

An investor may not invest directly in an index.

1. ORGANIZATION

The Arbitrage Funds (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust, which was organized on December 22, 1999 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company issuing its shares in series. Each series represents a distinct portfolio with its own investment objective and policies. The four series presently authorized are the Arbitrage Fund (the "Arbitrage Fund"), the Water Island Event-Driven Fund (the "Event-Driven Fund"), the Water Island Credit Opportunities Fund (the "Credit Opportunities Fund") and the Water Island Long/Short Fund (the "Long/Short Fund"), each a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds". Prior to September 30, 2020, the Event-Driven Fund was named Water Island Diversified Event-Driven Fund. The Event-Driven Fund's portfolio manager, investment objective and investment strategies did not change. The Arbitrage Fund and the Credit Opportunities Fund are each a diversified series of the Trust. The Long/Short Fund and the Event-Driven Fund are each a non-diversified series of the Trust. The Funds' investments are managed by Water Island Capital, LLC (the "Adviser").

N/A

The investment objective of the Arbitrage Fund is to seek to achieve capital growth by engaging in merger arbitrage. The investment objective of the Event-Driven Fund is to seek to achieve capital growth by investing in companies that are impacted by corporate events such as mergers, acquisitions, asset sales, restructurings, recapitalizations, refinancings, reorganizations and other special situations. The investment objective of the Credit Opportunities Fund is to seek to provide current income and capital growth by investing in debt securities impacted by events such as reorganizations, restructurings, recapitalizations, debt maturities, refinancings, mergers, acquisitions, regulatory changes and other special situations. The investment objective of the Long/Short Fund is to seek to achieve capital appreciation over a full market cycle with lower volatility than the broad equity market.

The Arbitrage Fund, Event-Driven Fund and Credit Opportunities Fund's four classes of shares, Class R, Class I, Class C and Class A, and the Long/Short Fund's two classes of shares, Class R and Class I, represent interests in the same portfolio of investments and have the same rights, but differ primarily in the expenses to which they are subject and the investment eligibility requirements. Class R shares, Class C shares and Class A shares are subject to an annual distribution and servicing fee of up to 0.25%, 1.00% and 0.25%, respectively, of each Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares, Class C shares and Class A shares, respectively, whereas Class I shares are not subject to any distribution and servicing fees. Class C shares are also subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge on all purchases redeemed within 12 months of purchase. Class A shares of the Arbitrage Fund are sold subject to a maximum front-end sales load equal to 2.75% of the offering price and are also subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales load on purchases at or above $250,000, purchased without a front-end sales charge and redeemed within 18 months of purchase. Class A shares of the Event-Driven Fund and the Credit Opportunities Fund are sold subject to a maximum front-end sales load equal to 3.25% of the offering price and are also subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales load on purchases

at or above $250,000 purchased without a front-end sales charge and redeemed within 18 months of purchase.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Funds are considered investment companies for financial reporting purposes under GAAP and Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 — Financial Services — Investment Companies.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform, which provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions which are affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. Such provisions are elective and apply to all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate that are discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 had no impact on the Funds during the current reporting period.

In October 2020, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-08 ("ASU 2020-08"), "Receivables — Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Codification Improvements Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities". ASU 2020-08 is an update of ASU No. 2017-08, which amends the amortization period of certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. ASU 2020-08 updates the amortization period for callable debt securities to be amortized to the next call date. For purposes of this update, the next call date is the first date when a call option at a specified price becomes exercisable. Once that date has passed, the next call date is when the next call option at a specified price becomes exercisable, if applicable. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Management is currently evaluating the implication, if any, of the additional disclosure requirements and its impact on the Funds' financial statements.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Valuation of Investments — The Funds' portfolio securities are valued as of the close of trading of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern standard time). Common stocks, mutual funds and other securities, including open short positions that are traded on a securities exchange, are valued at the last quoted sales price at the close of regular trading on the day the valuation is made. Securities which are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Price information on listed stocks is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Redeemable securities issued by open-end investment companies are valued at the investment company's respective net asset value, with the exception of exchange-traded open-end investment companies, which are priced as common stocks. Market quotations of foreign securities from the principal markets in which they trade may not be reliable if events or circumstances that may affect the value of portfolio securities occur between the time of the market quotation and the close of trading on the NYSE. If a significant event that affects the valuation of a foreign security occurs between the close of a foreign security's primary exchange and the time the Funds calculate their net asset value ("NAV"), the Funds will fair value

the foreign security to account for this discrepancy. Securities which are listed on an exchange but which are not traded on the valuation date will be valued at last bid if held long, and last ask if held short. Put and call options and securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the mean of the most recent bid and ask prices. Foreign currency forward contracts are valued at the current day's interpolated foreign exchange rate, as calculated using the current day's spot rate, and the thirty, sixty, ninety and one-hundred eighty day forward rates provided by an independent source.

If available, debt securities are priced based upon an evaluated bid provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the latest quoted bid price. Single name swap agreements are valued based on the underlying terms of the agreement. Other swap agreements (such as baskets of securities) are valued daily based on the terms of the swap agreement as provided by an independent third party or the counterparty. If a third-party valuation is not available, these other swap agreements are valued based on the valuation provided by the counterparty.

Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee, which is under the supervision of the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued at fair value include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been delisted from a national exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has been acquired through completion of a merger/tender or the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. Such methods of fair valuation may include, but are not limited to: multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security, purchase price of a security, subsequent private transactions in the security or related securities, or a combination of these and other factors. Foreign securities are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.

Fair Value Measurements — In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements under GAAP, the Funds disclose fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date;

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing each Fund's own assumption about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3, whose fair value measurement considers several inputs, may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

For the six months ended November 30, 2020, there were no significant changes to the Funds' fair value methodologies. Transfers for Level 3 securities, if any, are shown as part of the leveling table in each Fund's Portfolio of Investments.

Unfunded Commitments — As of November 30, 2020, the Arbitrage Fund, Event-Driven Fund and Long/Short Fund had unfunded commitments of $8,081,100, $1,181,700 and $157,300, respectively, which consist of Private Investment in Public Entity (PIPE) agreements with sponsors of Special Purpose Acquisition Companies. The Funds expect to fulfill these unfunded commitments through the use of liquid investments.

Share Valuation and Redemption Fees — The net asset value per share of each class of shares of the Funds is calculated daily by dividing the total value of a Fund's assets attributable to that class, less liabilities attributable to that class, by the number of shares of that class outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of each class of each Fund is equal to the net asset value per share. The Trust does not impose a redemption fee on the sale of a Fund's shares.

Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis.

Short Positions — The Funds may sell securities short for economic hedging purposes. Subsequent fluctuations in the market prices of securities sold short may require purchasing the securities at prices which may differ from the market value reflected on the Portfolio of Investments. The Funds are liable for any dividends and interest payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. As collateral for their short positions, the Funds are required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. The amount of the collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect changes in the value of the securities sold short. The Funds are charged an interest rebate expense by the prime broker on securities sold short. The interest rebate expense is charged for the duration of time that a security is sold short and is shown on the Statements of Operations.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — The following discloses the Funds' use of derivative instruments and hedging activities.

The Funds' investment objectives not only permit the Funds to purchase investment securities, but they also allow certain Funds to enter into various types of derivative contracts, including, but not limited to, swap contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, and purchased and written option contracts. In doing so, the Funds will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit them to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent to derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity or debt securities: they require little or no initial cash investment; they can focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors; and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to satisfy the contract. This may allow the Funds to pursue their objectives more quickly and efficiently than if they were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of effecting a similar response to market factors. The Funds may, but are not required to, seek to reduce their currency risk by hedging part or all of their exposure to various foreign currencies.

Market Risk Factors: In pursuit of their investment objectives, the Funds may seek to use derivatives to increase or decrease their exposure to the following market risk factors:

Equity Risk: Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market. Investments in securities issued by small and medium capitalization companies tend to be less liquid and more volatile than stocks of companies with relatively large market capitalizations. To the extent a Fund invests in securities of small and medium capitalization companies, it may be more vulnerable to adverse business events than larger, more established companies.

Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of fixed income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase the value of such investments. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk: Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the value of the foreign currency denominated security will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency. Adverse changes in exchange rates may erode or reverse any gains produced by foreign currency denominated investments and may widen any losses.

Credit Risk: Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.

The extent of the impact of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") outbreak on the financial performance of the Funds will depend on future developments, including duration and spread of the outbreak, related advisories and restrictions, and the impact of COVID-19 on the financial markets and the overall economy, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. These disruptions could prevent a Fund from executing advantageous investment decisions in a timely manner and could negatively impact the Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period of time, the Funds' results of operations may be materially adversely affected. During the six months ended November 30, 2020, there was no significant impact to the Funds.

Risk of Investing in Derivatives: The Funds' use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Funds are using derivatives to decrease or hedge exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Funds, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected, resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.

Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Funds to increase their market value exposure relative to their net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Funds' performance.

Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative instruments and the Funds. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Funds are attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per their investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives.

Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty to a transaction will not fulfill its obligation to the Funds. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by derivative type in the notes that follow.

Option Writing/Purchasing: Certain Funds may write or purchase option contracts to adjust risk and return of their overall investment positions. When a Fund writes or purchases an option, an amount equal to the premium received or paid by the Fund is recorded as a liability or an asset and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written or purchased. Premiums received or paid from writing or purchasing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains or losses. The difference between the premium and the amount paid or received on effecting a closing purchase or sale transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain or loss. If an option is exercised, the premium paid or received is added to the cost of the purchase or proceeds from the sale in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss on investment transactions. Risks from entering into option transactions arise from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contracts, the potential inability to enter into closing transactions because of an illiquid secondary market and from unexpected movements in security values.

Options held by the Funds at November 30, 2020 are disclosed in the Portfolio of Investments.

During the period ended November 30, 2020, the Funds engaged in option writing/purchasing to limit volatility and correlation and to create income and optionality. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a fund as a writer of put options could be required to make is equal to the notional amount multiplied by the exercise price as shown in the Schedule of Investments.

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts as a way of managing foreign exchange rate risk. The Funds may enter into these contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date as a hedge or cross-hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio positions. The objective of the Funds' foreign currency hedging transactions is to reduce risk that the U.S. dollar value of the Funds' securities denominated in foreign currency will decline in value due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Foreign currency exchange contracts held by the Funds at November 30, 2020 are disclosed in the Portfolio of Investments.

During the period ended November 30, 2020, the Funds entered into foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge currency risk.

Warrants/Rights: Each Fund may purchase or otherwise receive warrants or rights. Warrants and rights generally give the holder the right to receive, upon exercise, a security of the issuer at a set price. The Funds typically use warrants and rights in a manner similar to their use of purchased options on securities, as described in the Options Writing/Purchasing section above. Risks associated with the use of warrants and rights are generally similar to risks associated with the

use of purchased options. However, warrants and rights often do not have standardized terms, and may have longer maturities and may be less liquid than exchange-traded options. In addition, the terms of warrants or rights may limit each Fund's ability to exercise the warrants or rights at such times and in such quantities as each Fund would otherwise wish. Warrants and rights generally pay no dividends and confer no voting or other rights other than to purchase the underlying security.

Warrants/rights held by the Funds at November 30, 2020 are disclosed in the Portfolio of Investments.

During the period ended November 30, 2020, the Funds held warrants/rights as a result of receiving them from completed deals, and to participate in investment opportunities.

Swaps: Certain Funds may enter into interest rate, index, equity, total return and credit default swap agreements, for hedging and non-hedging purposes. These transactions would be entered into in an attempt to obtain a particular return when it is considered desirable to do so, possibly at a lower cost to a Fund than if the Fund had invested directly in the asset that yielded the desired return. Swap agreements may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility program, such as a registered exchange ("centrally cleared swaps") or may be privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market. The duration of a swap agreement typically ranges from a few weeks to more than one year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments, which may be adjusted for an interest factor. The gross returns to be exchanged or "swapped" between the parties are generally calculated with respect to a "notional amount" (i.e., the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate, a particular security, in a particular foreign currency, or in a "basket" of securities representing a particular index). In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the "CCP") and the Fund's counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP.

Total return swap agreements are contracts in which one party agrees to make periodic payments based on the change in market value of underlying assets, which may include a specified security, basket of securities, defined portfolios of bonds, loans and mortgages, or securities indexes during the specified period in return for periodic payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate or the total return from other underlying assets or indices. Total return swap agreements may be used to obtain exposure to a security or market index without owning or taking physical custody of such security or component securities of a market index. Total return swap agreements may effectively add leverage to a Fund's portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. Total return swaps are a mechanism for the user to accept the economic benefits of asset ownership without utilizing the balance sheet. The other leg of the swap, usually the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the Federal Funds Rate, is spread to reflect the non-balance sheet nature of the product. Total return swaps can be designed with any underlying asset agreed upon between two parties. Typically no notional amounts are exchanged with total return swaps. Total return swap agreements entail the risk that a party will default on its payment obligations to a Fund thereunder. Swap agreements also entail the risk that a Fund will not be able to meet its obligation to the counterparty. Generally, a Fund will enter into total return swaps on a net basis (i.e., the two payment streams are netted out with the Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments). The Funds will typically enter into agreements based on either long or short exposure to underlying equities. To help mitigate against default risk by the

counterparties these agreements are reset monthly, with cashflows exchanged based on the change in the value of the underlying equity from either the opening price or the last reset price, netted against the interest leg of the swap.

Most swap agreements entered into by a Fund calculate the obligations of the parties to the agreement on a "net basis." Consequently, a Fund's current obligations (or rights) under a swap agreement will generally be equal only to the net present value of amounts to be paid or received under the agreement based on the relative values of the positions held by each party to the agreement (the "net amount"). A Fund's current obligations under a swap agreement will be accrued daily (offset against amounts owed to the Fund), and any accrued but unpaid net amounts owed to a swap counterparty will be covered in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements to limit any potential leveraging of a Fund's portfolio. Any net amount accrued but not yet paid to a Fund by the counterparty under a swap agreement (i.e., the Fund's current rights under the swap agreement) is recorded as unrealized appreciation until the amount is paid to the Fund. The Fund's maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is generally limited to the net payment to be received by the Fund and/or the termination value at the end of the contract. Obligations under swap agreements so covered will not be construed to be "senior securities" for purposes of the Funds' investment restriction concerning senior securities.

Whether a Fund's use of swap agreements will be successful in furthering its investment objective will depend on management's ability to correctly predict whether certain types of investments are likely to produce greater returns than other investments. Swap agreements that cannot be terminated or sold within seven days may be considered to be illiquid investments. Moreover, a Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. Although centrally cleared swaps typically present less counterparty risk than non-centrally cleared swaps, a Fund that has entered into centrally cleared swaps is subject to the risk of the failure of the CCP. A Fund will enter into swap agreements only with counterparties that meet certain standards for creditworthiness (generally, such counterparties would have to be eligible counterparties under the terms of the Fund's repurchase agreement guidelines) or that are centrally cleared. Certain restrictions imposed on the Funds by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), may limit a Fund's ability to use swap agreements. It is possible that developments in the swap market, including additional government regulation, could adversely affect a Fund's ability to terminate existing swap agreements or to realize amounts to be received under such agreements.

International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements ("ISDA Master Agreements") govern over-the-counter financial derivative transactions entered into by a Fund and counterparty. The ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral and events of default or termination. Events of termination include conditions that may entitle counterparties to elect to terminate early and cause settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement. Any election to terminate early could be material to the financial statements.

Swap agreements held by the Funds at November 30, 2020 are disclosed in the Portfolio of Investments.

During the period ended November 30, 2020, the Arbitrage Fund, Event-Driven Fund, Credit Opportunities Fund and Long/Short Fund entered into swap agreements to gain efficient exposure to underlying equities.

Certain derivative contracts are executed under either standardized netting agreements or, for exchange-traded derivatives, the relevant contracts for a particular exchange which contain enforceable netting provisions. A derivative netting arrangement creates an enforceable right of set-off that becomes effective, and affects the realization of settlement on individual assets, liabilities and collateral amounts, only following a specified event of default or early termination. Default events may include the failure to make payments or deliver securities timely, material adverse changes in financial condition or insolvency, the breach of minimum regulatory capital requirements, or loss of license, charter or other legal authorization necessary to perform under the contract.

The Funds held financial instruments such as equity swaps that are subject to enforceable netting arrangements or other similar agreements as of November 30, 2020. At November 30, 2020, there was no unrealized appreciation or depreciation on these instruments held by the Funds. All other derivative contracts held by the Funds were not subject to netting agreements.

Investment Income — Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, net of any non-reclaimable tax withholdings. Payment-in-kind securities have the option at each interest payment date of making interest payments in cash or additional debt securities. Any interest accrued on payment-in-kind securities is recorded as interest income on an accrual basis. Distributions from REITs may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain, or a return of capital to the Funds. The proper characterization of REIT distributions is generally not known until after the end of each calendar year. As such, estimates are used in reporting the character of income and distributions for financial statement purposes when information is not available.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — Dividends arising from net investment income and net capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid at least annually to shareholders of the Arbitrage Fund, Event-Driven Fund and Long/Short Fund. Dividends arising from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly, and net capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid at least annually to shareholders of the Credit Opportunities Fund.

Allocation Between Classes — Investment income earned, realized capital gains and losses, and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportionate shares of total net assets of each Fund. Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the class incurring the expense. Common expenses which are not attributable to a

specific class are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportionate share of total net assets of each Fund.

Federal Income Tax — It is the Funds' policy to continue to comply with the special provisions of Subchapter M of the Code, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a fund so qualifies and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net income, a fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of Federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made.

As of and during the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and, if applicable, penalties for any uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalty expense will be recorded as a component of interest or other tax expense. No interest or penalties were recorded during the six months ended November 30, 2020. The Funds file U.S. federal, state, and local tax returns as required. The Funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return. Tax returns for open years have incorporated no uncertain tax positions that require a provision for income taxes.

The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, entered into an agreement which enables the Arbitrage Fund, the Event-Driven Fund, the Credit Opportunities Fund and the Long/Short Fund to participate in a $50,000,000 unsecured committed revolving line of credit (the "Committed Line") and a $100,000,000 unsecured uncommitted revolving line of credit (the "Uncommitted Line," together with the Committed Line, the "Credit Agreement") with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Custodian"). Borrowings are made solely to temporarily finance the purchase or sale of securities or to finance the redemption of the shares of an investor of the Funds. Interest is charged to the Funds based on their borrowings at a rate per annum of the higher of the LIBOR rate plus 1.25% and the overnight federal funds rate plus 1.25%. The Committed Line has a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the Committed Line and is payable quarterly. The Uncommitted Line has an upfront fee of $30,000, is held available on a discretionary demand basis and may be terminated by the Custodian or the Trust at any time for any or no reason. The Trust accrues, on behalf of each of the Funds, the commitment fee on the

unused portion of the Committed Line. On December 3, 2020 the Trust terminated the Committed Line and renewed the Uncommitted line. Interest is charged to the Funds based on their borrowing at a rate equal to the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 1.25% on such date and (b) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 1.25% on such date, plus in each case 10 basis points. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate shall be less than zero, then the Federal Funds Effective Rate or Overnight Bank Funding Rate, shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of determining the rate. Such fees are included in the custodian and bank service fees on the Statements of Operations.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority, the United Kingdom's financial regulatory body, announced that after 2021 it will cease its active encouragement of banks to provide quotations needed to sustain the LIBOR rate, which means that the LIBOR rate may no longer be published after 2021. Although there is still uncertainty regarding a replacement rate, it is anticipated that, beginning in 2020, transactions that currently utilize LIBOR will transition to using the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), which is a broad measure of the cost of overnight borrowings secured by U.S. Treasury securities. However, various counterparties or other entities may be unwilling or unable to utilize SOFR prior to 2021 or may be unable to modify existing agreements or instruments in a timely manner. The transition from LIBOR to SOFR (or any other replacement rate) may lead to a reduction in the value of some LIBOR-based investments and the effectiveness of new hedges placed against existing LIBOR-based investments, as well as significant market uncertainty, increased volatility, and illiquidity in markets for various instruments, which may result in prolonged adverse market conditions and impact a Fund's performance or NAV.

For the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Event-Driven Fund and the Credit Opportunities Fund had average borrowings of $1,540,909 and $1,773,529, respectively, over a period of 66 days and 34 days, respectively, at a weighted average interest rate of 1.40% and 1.43%, respectively. Interest expense on the line of credit for the Event-Driven Fund and the Credit Opportunities Fund during the six months ended November 30, 2020, is shown as line of credit interest expense on the Statements of Operations. The Arbitrage Fund, the Credit Opportunities Fund and the Long/Short Fund had no outstanding borrowings at November 30, 2020. The Event-Driven Fund had outstanding borrowings of $500,000 at November 30, 2020.

For the six months ended November 30, 2020, the aggregate net fee paid to the Adviser as a percentage of average net assets for the Arbitrage Fund, Event-Driven Fund, Credit Opportunities Fund and Long/Short Fund was 1.00%, 0.98%, 0.47% and 0.00%, respectively.

8. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Amounts denominated in or expected to settle in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars based on exchange rates on the basis outlined below:

A. The market values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate of exchange each day.

B. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

C. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from those caused by changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 1) purchases and sales of foreign currencies; 2) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on security transactions; and 3) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds' books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Reported net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

9. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

The Funds indemnify the Trust's officers and trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which

provide general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

10. SECURITIES LENDING

To generate additional income, the Funds may, from time to time, lend portfolio securities to broker-dealers, banks or institutional borrowers of securities. At the time of the loan, the Funds must receive from the borrower 102% collateral in the form of cash or U.S. government securities. This collateral must be valued daily and, should the market value of the loaned securities increase, the borrower must furnish additional collateral to the Funds. During the time portfolio securities are on loan, the borrower pays the Funds any dividends or interest paid on such securities.

Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any time. While the Funds do not have the right to vote securities on loan, they have the right to terminate the loan and regain the right to vote if that is considered important with respect to the investment. In the event the borrower defaults in its obligation to the Fund, the Funds bear the risk of delay in the recovery of portfolio securities and the risk of loss of rights in the collateral.

The Funds may participate in a securities lending program under which the Funds' custodian, State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Custodian") acting as securities lending agent, is authorized to lend Fund portfolio securities to qualified brokers/dealers and financial institutions that post appropriate collateral. The value of securities loaned will not exceed one-third of the value of the total assets of the Fund making the loan. The Custodian has agreed to indemnify the Fund in case of default of any security borrower.

Securities on loan are fully collateralized and the collateral was equal to or exceeded the securities on loan. Cash collateral is invested in the State Street Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Fund, Premier Class. The Custodian receives a portion of the interest earned on any reinvested collateral. Income received by the Funds in securities lending transactions during the six months ended November 30, 2020, if any, is reflected as securities lending income in the Statement of Operations. The Funds did not participate in securities lending during the six months ended November 30, 2020.

11. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is each Fund's intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98.0% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These "book/tax" differences are either temporary or permanent in nature and permanent differences are charged or credited to undistributed net investment income (loss), accumulated net realized gain (loss) or paid-in capital as appropriate in the period that the differences arise.

Permanent differences between the Funds' financial statement and income tax reporting requirements are primarily attributable to gains and losses on certain foreign currency related transactions, short sale related dividend expense, investments in passive foreign investment companies, investments in swaps, ordinary loss netting to reduce short-term capital gains,

convertible bonds, corporate actions, non-deductible excise tax activity and partnership basis adjustments. These have no effect on the Funds' net assets or net asset value per share.

The tax character of dividends and distributions declared and paid during the years ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019 was as follows:

Fund	Year Ended	Ordinary Income		Long-Term Capital Gains*		Total Distributions
Arbitrage Fund	5/31/2020	$	21,844,119	$	12,763,361	$	34,607,480

	5/31/2019		39,986		4,350		44,336

* The Funds designate these distributions as long-term capital gains dividends per IRC code section 852(b)(3)(C).

As of May 31, 2020, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

	Arbitrage Fund			Event-Driven Fund			Credit Opportunities Fund			Long/Short Fund
Undistributed ordinary income	$	85,958,483		$	—		$	—		$	73,560
Accumulated capital gains/losses		—			—			—			—
Unrealized appreciation/ (depreciation)		(36,421,971	)		(1,715,937	)		(1,392,015	)		508
Capital loss carryover and late year ordinary loss deferrals		—			(51,575,093	)		(1,965,987	)		(2,124	)
Total distributable earnings (accumulated loss)	$	49,536,512		$	(53,291,030	)	$	(3,358,002	)	$	71,944

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of November 30, 2020:

Fund	Gross Appreciation (excess of value over tax cost)		Gross Depreciation (excess of tax cost over value)			Net Unrealized Appreciation			Aggregate Cost of Investments for Income Tax Purposes
Arbitrage Fund	$	79,416,370	$	(41,080,462	)	$	38,335,908		$	1,056,224,256
Event-Driven Fund		5,792,892		(2,555,149	)		3,237,743			88,596,527
Credit Opportunities Fund		3,246,975		(1,808,239	)		1,438,736			52,967,269
Long/Short Fund		110,522		(110,843	)		(321	)		710,814

The differences between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) for the Funds are attributable to constructive sales, dividends related to short securities, swap mark to market, wash sales, convertible bonds, straddle loss deferrals, partnership basis adjustments, forward contracts mark to market and unsettled short sales.

Capital Losses

As of May 31, 2020, the Event-Driven Fund had $42,803,914 of short term and $8,771,179 of long term capital loss carryforwards, the Credit Opportunities Fund had $422,403 of short term and $1,183,171 of long term capital loss carryforwards and Long/Short Fund had $2,124 of long term capital loss carryforwards which may reduce the Funds' taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code and thus may reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Funds of any liability for federal tax.

The Event-Driven Fund utilized $6,475,244 of capital loss carryforwards, and the Credit Opportunities Fund utilized $1,310,691 of capital loss carryforwards during the year ended May 31, 2020.

Late Year Losses

The Credit Opportunities Fund elected to defer to the period ending May 31, 2021 losses in the amount of $360,413.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management has evaluated subsequent events for the Funds through the date the financial statements were issued, and has concluded that there are no recognized or non-recognized subsequent events relevant for financial statement disclosure.

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, administrative services, distribution (12b-1) expenses, redemption fees and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.

Operating expenses such as these are deducted from a mutual fund's gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of a mutual fund's average net assets; this percentage is known as a mutual fund's expense ratio.

The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The table on the following page illustrates your Fund's cost in two ways:

Actual Fund Return. The section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the period. The "Expenses Paid During Period" column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the "Ending Account Value" number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund's gross investment return.

You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under "Expenses Paid During Period."

Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund's costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the period, but that expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund's comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the "Expenses Paid During Period" column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other mutual funds.

Note: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes – NOT your Fund's actual return – the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.
