Dear Shareholder:
 
Over the past six months, global equities, as represented by the MSCI ACWI Index, entered a bear market with a negative 21.37% total return during the first quarter of 2020. The Index reached its all-time peak of 581 on February 12, 2020, and then lost as much as 33.64% during the depth of the sell-off, which was triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The unprecedented nature of the COVID-19 crisis drove the Federal Reserve to aggressively inject liquidity into financial markets, with asset purchases expanded to include investment grade corporate and municipal bonds. The United States Congress also passed three rounds of stimulus adding up to more than $2 trillion of financial aid to individuals, municipalities, and various industries. Similarly, policymakers around the globe also unveiled aggressive monetary and fiscal stimulus. The aggressive policy responses helped to arrest the market decline and has led to a significant market rebound.
 
Global Economy
 
While the stock market basks in the complacency of a liquidity-fueled rebound, one should not equate that optimism with reality. Despite V-shaped recoveries in economic activity, the absolute levels are far from normal. For example, the daily air passenger count in the U.S. has surged 289% from the nadir in mid-April to as high as 345,000 in late May, prompting airlines to add new flights. However, it is still down 85% from a year ago, and it may take years to get back to pre-COVID-19 levels. Amtrak plans to cut up to 20% of its workforce as its ridership in 2021 is projected to rise to just half of what it was in 2019. Restaurants and retail shops across the country are re-opening for business, but OpenTable forecasts that 25% of U.S. restaurants will close for good, we believe it likely that the pandemic will accelerate the demise of many retailers.
 
The pandemic has been particularly tough for Europe, especially the heavily indebted Southern European economies. However, a slight shift in tone particularly from Germany and unity throughout Europe that has been expressed from a fiscal standpoint to combat the economic impacts of the virus have been impressive.
 
Federal Reserve Policy and the Bond Market:
 
Heading into 2020, it appeared that the U.S. economy was in relatively good shape. However, as the year progressed, COVID-19 and the measures put into place to contain it have officially brought the longest economic expansion in U.S. history to an end with a 4.8% annualized decline in U.S. real GDP in the first quarter of 2020. Expectations for second quarter 2020 growth are, for the most part, severe contraction in growth on record.
 
To help support the economy, the Federal Reserve cut rates two times in March at two separate emergency meetings. This was an unprecedented move to help avoid a complete economic collapse and alleviated stresses on financial conditions. Additionally, the Federal Reserve introduced a new quantitative easing (QE4) plan to eventually purchase unlimited amounts of Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities. With liquidity continuing to be a challenge for almost all fixed income instruments including the most liquid assets such as Treasuries, the Federal Reserve implemented many more programs in an attempt help bring the market functioning back to normalcy. Many of these were old programs that were implemented during the Great Financial Crisis of 2008, but several new programs were instituted.
 
While the outlook for the economy at this moment is higher than usual, we believe the broader picture coming from timely indicators is that the worst of the economic impact from the pandemic may be past us. However, the recovery will be a slow process and we expect the Federal Reserve to maintain a highly accommodative posture for the foreseeable future.

Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund:
 
For the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Institutional Class shares of the Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund had a return of +5.36% (net), modestly underperforming the Bloomberg Barclays Aggregate Bond Index benchmark, which returned +5.40%. Detracting from relative performance was the Fund’s sector allocations. An overweight to corporate bonds detracted as spreads widened over the period. Meanwhile, the Fund’s longer relative duration contributed positively as yields declined across the curve.
 
Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt National Bond Fund:
 
For the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Institutional Class shares of the Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt National Bond Fund had a return of +2.37% (net), while the Bloomberg Barclays Managed Money Short/Intermediate (1 - 10 Years) Index returned +3.35%. Detracting from relative performance was the Fund’s overweight to the “A” rated credit cohort as lower quality underperformed. The Fund’s modestly longer duration profile also detracted from relative performance as the yield curve steepened during the period.
 
Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt New York Bond Fund:
 
For the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Institutional Class shares of the Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt New York Bond Fund had a return of +1.04% (net), while the Bloomberg Barclays Managed Money Short/Intermediate (1 - 10 Years) Index returned +3.35%. Detracting from relative performance was the Fund’s geographical overweight to New York as municipal bonds from this region materially underperformed during the period due to elevated COVID concerns. Additionally, the Fund’s overweight to the “A” rated credit cohort also detracted from relative performance as lower quality underperformed. The Fund’s modestly longer duration profile also detracted from relative performance as the yield curve steepened during the period.
 
Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund
 
For the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Institutional Class shares of the Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund returned -2.66% (net) versus the MSCI World All-Country Index (net dividends) return of -0.07% over the same period. In aggregate across the period, stock selection in the Communication Services sector was the largest contributor, which was more than offset by the negative contribution from the strategy’s bank exposure within Financial Services. ING Groep NV and Lloyd’s Banking Group were among the largest detracting stocks, as European banks were hit due to a lower interest rate environment that will impact margins, and concerns around credit quality due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Within Communication Services, Facebook was the largest positive contributor for the period.
 
Looking Forward
 
At some point in the months ahead, we believe the post-lockdown euphoria will give way to the realization that while aggressive bailout efforts may have stunted the impact of an economic depression, we are still left with a deep recession. The insolvency wave will likely continue to crest; year-to-date, there were already 98 bankruptcies filed by companies with more than $50 million of liabilities, which is the highest since the Great Recession. Collapsing tax revenues will force state and local governments to resort to belt-tightening.

Depending on the rate of new infections and hospitalizations, the V-shaped economic bounce off lockdowns may morph into a stagnant morass as a part of the population continues to refrain from certain activities until they get vaccinated. As the election season gets underway, investors will no longer be able to ignore policy risks for 2021 and beyond, not to mention the rising tension with China.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. The Funds are susceptible to adverse economic, political, tax, or regulatory changes which may magnify other risks. Income from tax-exempt funds may become subject to state and local taxes and a portion of income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for certain investors. Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investment by the Funds in lower-rated and non-rated securities presents a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities. Investing in the municipal securities market is volatile and can be significantly affected by adverse tax, legislative or political changes and the financial condition of the issuers of municipal securities. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage- backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of such as credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic development. The Funds may invest in restricted securities or “private placement” transactions. Private placement securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and are subject to restrictions on resale. As such they are often both difficult to sell and to value. The Funds may invest in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) which are subject to additional risks, including the risks that the market price of an ETF’s shares may trade at a discount to its net asset value (“NAV”), an active secondary trading market may not develop or be maintained, or trading may be halted by the exchange in which they trade, which may impact a Fund’s ability to sell its shares. The Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt New York Bond Fund is non-diversified, meaning it concentrates its assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund, specifically in the State of New York issues. The Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund is subject to small- and medium- capitalization company risks, which tend to have limited liquidity and greater price volatility than large-capitalization companies. The Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund also invests in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater in emerging markets. Investing in commodities may subject the Fund to greater risks and volatility as commodity prices may be influenced by a variety of factors including unfavorable weather, environmental factors, and changes in government regulations. Master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) in which the Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund may invest are subject to certain risks inherent in the structure of MLPs, including complex tax structure risks, the limited ability for election or removal of management, limited

voting rights, potential dependence on parent companies or sponsors for revenues to satisfy obligations, and potential conflicts of interest between partners, members and affiliates.
 
The Bloomberg Barclays Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index which is widely regarded as a standard for measuring U.S. investment grade bond market performance.
 
The Bloomberg Barclays Managed Money Short/Intermediate (1 - 10 Years) Index is the 1-10 year component of the Barclays Managed Money Index, which is a rules-based, market-value-weighted index engineered for the tax-exempt municipal bond market.
 
The MSCI All Country World Index (Net Dividends) (“MSCI ACWI”) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that measures the equity performance of global developed and emerging markets. The MSCI ACWI total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using (for international indices) a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties.
 
One cannot invest directly in an index.
 
Gross domestic product (“GDP”) for a country is a monetary measure of the value of all final goods and services produced by the country in a specified period.
 
Duration is a commonly used measure of the potential volatility of the price of a debt security, or the aggregate market value of a portfolio of debt securities, prior to maturity. Securities with a longer duration generally have more volatile prices than securities of comparable quality with a shorter duration.
 
Yield Curve is a line that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time, of bonds having equal credit quality, but differing maturity dates. The most frequently reported yield curve compares the three-month, two-year, five-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury debt. The curve is used to predict changes in economic output and growth.

Credit Quality weights by rating were derived from the highest bond rating as determined by S&P, Moody’s or Fitch. Bond ratings are grades given to bonds that indicate their credit quality as determined by private independent rating services such as Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and Fitch. These firms evaluate a bond issuer's financial strength, or its ability to pay a bond’s principal and interest in a timely fashion. Ratings are expressed as letters ranging from ‘AAA’, which is the highest grade, to ‘D’, which is the lowest grade. In limited situations when none of the three rating agencies have issued a formal rating, the Advisor will classify the security as nonrated.

Rockefeller Funds
Expense Examples
(Unaudited)


As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses.  These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds, and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.  The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (12/1/19 – 5/31/20).
 
Actual Expenses
 
The first line of each of the following tables provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. Although the Funds charge no sales load, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Funds’ transfer agent. If you request that a redemption be made by wire transfer, currently a $15.00 fee is charged by the Funds’ transfer agent.  Individual Retirement Accounts will be charged a $15.00 annual maintenance fee. To the extent the Funds invest in shares of exchange-traded funds or other investment companies as part of their investment strategies, you will indirectly bear your proportionate share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds in which the Funds invest in addition to the expenses of the Funds. Actual expenses of the underlying funds are expected to vary among the various underlying funds. These expenses are not included in the Examples. The Examples include, but are not limited to, management fees, fund administration fees and accounting, custody and transfer agent fees. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
 
The second line of each of the following tables provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Investment Highlights
(Unaudited)


The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective of long-term total return from capital appreciation and income by investing its assets globally in a range of equity asset classes and, to a lesser extent, in fixed-income securities, real estate and commodity linked equities (such as real estate investment trusts and master limited partnerships), and currencies. Rockefeller & Co. LLC (the “Adviser”) will allocate the Fund’s assets across asset classes taking into consideration both the Adviser’s longer-term strategic outlook as well as tactical views as to potential near-term opportunities. The Adviser considers a number of factors when making allocation decisions, including relative attractiveness among equity market capitalizations and geographic regions, inflation risks and factors that influence commodity prices.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective to generate current income consistent with the preservation of capital by investing under normal market conditions at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in taxable fixed-income securities.  “Fixed-income securities” include corporate, government and municipal bonds, asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, other investment companies and ETFs that will invest in fixed-income securities, and other fixed-income instruments.  The Fund invests primarily in investment grade fixed-income securities.  Investment grade securities are fixed-income securities rated in the top four ratings categories by independent rating organizations such as Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”), or deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.  The Adviser anticipates the Fund’s weighted average duration will be more than three years but less than ten years.

Investment Highlights
(Unaudited)


The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective to generate current income that is exempt from federal personal income tax consistent with the preservation of capital by investing under normal market conditions at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in municipal bonds and other fixed-income securities that generate income exempt from regular federal income tax, including the federal alternative minimum tax (“AMT”).  The Fund may invest in all types of municipal bonds, including, but not limited to, general obligation bonds and industrial development bonds.  The Fund may also invest in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, other investment companies, ETFs and the obligations of other issuers that pay interest that is exempt from regular federal income taxes.  While the Fund will invest primarily in tax exempt securities, it is possible that up to 20% of the Fund’s total assets may be invested in fixed-income securities that generate income that is not exempt from regular federal income tax, including the federal AMT.  The Fund invests primarily in investment grade municipal bonds and other types of fixed-income securities.  Investment grade securities are fixed-income securities rated in the top four ratings categories by independent rating organizations such as S&P and Moody’s or another NRSRO, or, if unrated, deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.  While the Fund may invest in securities of any duration, the Adviser anticipates the weighted average duration of the Fund’s portfolio will be more than three years but less than ten years.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective to generate current income that is exempt from federal, New York State and New York City personal income tax consistent with the preservation of capital by investing under normal market conditions at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in municipal bonds and other fixed-income securities that generate income exempt from regular federal, New York State and New York City personal income tax, including the federal AMT.  The Fund may invest in all types of municipal bonds, including, but not limited to, general obligation bonds, industrial development bonds, and other obligations issued by the State of New York, its subdivisions, authorities, instrumentalities and corporations.  The Fund may also invest in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, other investment companies, ETFs and the obligations of other issuers that pay interest that is exempt from regular federal and New York State and New York City personal income tax.  While the Fund will invest primarily in tax exempt securities, it is possible that up to 20% of the Fund’s total assets may be invested in fixed-income securities that generate income that is not exempt from regular federal income tax, New York State and New York City personal income tax, including the federal AMT.  The Fund invests primarily in investment grade fixed-income securities rated in the top four ratings categories by independent rating organizations such as S&P and Moody’s or another NRSRO, or deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.  While the Fund may invest in securities of any duration, the Adviser anticipates the weighted average duration of the Fund’s portfolio will be more than three years but less than ten years.  The Fund is non-diversified.

Performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end may be obtained by calling 855-369-6209.
 
Short-term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the Fund’s future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on historical returns.
 
Investment performance reflects fee waivers in effect. In the absence of such waivers, total return would be reduced.
 
The returns shown assume reinvestment of Fund distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The following chart illustrates performance of a hypothetical investment made in the Fund and a broad-based securities index on the Fund’s inception date. The graph does not reflect any future performance.
 
The Bloomberg Barclays Managed Money Short/Intermediate Index is the 1-10 year component of the Barclays Managed Money Index, which is a rules-based, market-value-weighted index engineered for the tax-exempt municipal bond market.

Notes to Financial Statements
May 31, 2020 (Unaudited)


(1)
Organization
   
 
Trust for Professional Managers (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under a Declaration of Trust dated May 29, 2001. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Rockefeller Funds (the “Funds”) are comprised of the Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund, Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund, and Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt National Bond Fund (each of which represents a distinct, diversified series with its own investment objective and policies within the Trust), and the Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt New York Bond Fund (which represents a distinct, non-diversified series with its own investment objective and policies within the Trust). The investment objective of the Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund is to seek long-term total return from capital appreciation and income. The investment objective of the Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund is to generate current income consistent with the preservation of capital.  The investment objective of the Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt National Bond Fund is to generate current income that is exempt from federal personal income tax consistent with the preservation of capital.  The investment objective of the Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt New York Bond Fund is to generate current income that is exempt from federal, New York State and New York City personal income tax consistent with the preservation of capital. The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest at $0.001 par value.  The Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund, Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt National Bond Fund and Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt New York Bond Fund commenced operations on December 26, 2013. The Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund commenced operations on February 4, 2015.  Advisor Class shares of the Funds are authorized but are not currently offered for purchase.  Costs incurred by the Funds in connection with the organization, registration and initial public offering of shares were borne by the Adviser.
   
 
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Company”.
   
(2)
Significant Accounting Policies
   
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
   
 
(a)  Investment Valuation
   
 
Each equity security owned by the Funds that is listed on a securities exchange, except for securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), is valued at its last sale price at the close of that exchange on the date as of which assets are valued.  If a security is listed on more than one exchange, the Funds will use the price on the exchange that the Funds generally consider to be the principal exchange on which the security is traded.
   
 
Fund securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks and exchange traded funds, listed on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which

54

Rockefeller Funds
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
May 31, 2020 (Unaudited)


 
may not necessarily represent the last sale price.  If, on a particular day, an exchange-listed or NASDAQ security does not trade, then: (i) the security is valued at the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices at the close of the exchange on such day; or (ii) the security is valued at the latest sales price on the Composite Market for the day such security is being valued.  “Composite Market” means a consolidation of the trade information provided by national securities and foreign exchanges and the over-the-counter markets as published by an approved independent pricing service (“Pricing Service”).
   
 
Foreign securities will be priced in their local currencies as of the close of their primary exchange or market or as of the time the Fund calculates its NAV, whichever is earlier.  Foreign securities, currencies and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are then translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar using the applicable currency exchange rates as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
   
 
Foreign securities are traded on foreign exchanges which typically close before the close of business on each day on which the NYSE is open. Each security trading on these exchanges may be valued utilizing a systematic fair valuation model provided by a pricing service. The valuation of each security that meets certain criteria in relation to the valuation model is systematically adjusted to reflect the impact of movement in the U.S. market after the foreign markets close and are classified as Level 2 securities.  Securities that do not meet the criteria, or that are principally traded in other foreign markets, are valued as of the last reported sale price at the time the respective Fund determines its NAV, or when reliable market prices or quotations are not readily available, at the mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations as of the close of the appropriate exchange or other designated time.
   
 
Debt securities, including short-term debt instruments having a maturity of 60 days or less, are valued at the mean in accordance with prices provided by a Pricing Service.  Pricing Services may use various valuation methodologies such as the mean between the bid and the asked prices, matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations.  If a price is not available from a Pricing Service, the most recent quotation obtained from one or more broker-dealers known to follow the issue will be obtained.  Quotations will be valued at the mean between the bid and the offer.  In the absence of available quotations, the securities will be priced at fair value in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees.  Any discount or premium is accreted or amortized using the constant yield method until maturity.  Constant yield amortization takes into account the income that is produced on a debt security.  This accretion/amortization type utilizes the discount rate used in computing the present value of all future principal and interest payments made by a debt instrument and produces an amount equal to the cost of the debt instrument.
   
 
Municipal bonds are priced by a Pricing Service.  A discounted cash flow methodology is employed using a benchmark yield and estimated cash flows for each bond, as well as an estimated discount for liquidity.  Additional inputs such as calls of bond principal by the issuer are considered in the estimate of fair value.  To the extent the inputs are

55

Rockefeller Funds
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
May 31, 2020 (Unaudited)


 
based on observable inputs, municipal bonds would be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; otherwise, they would be generally categorized as Level 3.
   
 
U.S. government notes/bonds are normally valued by a Pricing Service using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, and reference data.  Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.  U.S. government notes/bonds are typically categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
   
 
When market quotations are not readily available, any security or other financial instrument is valued at its fair value as determined under procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.  These fair value procedures will also be used to price a security when corporate events, events in the securities market and/or world events cause the Adviser to believe that a security’s last sale price may not reflect its actual fair market value.  The intended effect of using fair value pricing procedures is to ensure that the Funds are accurately priced.  The Board of Trustees will regularly evaluate whether the Funds’ fair value pricing procedures continue to be appropriate in light of the specific circumstances of the Funds and the quality of prices obtained by the Trust’s valuation committee.
   
 
The Funds have adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which requires the Funds to classify their securities based on a valuation method. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

   
Level 1—
Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
       
   
Level 2—

The Funds measure Level 3 activity as of the beginning and end of the six months.  For the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Funds did not have any significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 securities) used in determining fair value.  Therefore, a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value is not applicable.
   
 
The Funds did not invest in derivative securities or engage in hedging activities during the six months ended May 31, 2020.
   
 
(b)  Federal Income Taxes
   
 
The Funds comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, necessary to qualify as regulated investment companies and make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to their shareholders sufficient to relieve them from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been provided.

57

Rockefeller Funds
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
May 31, 2020 (Unaudited)


 
(c)  Distributions to Shareholders
   
 
The Funds will distribute net investment income at least quarterly, and net capital gains at least annually. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains. All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax purposes. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds may also pay a special distribution at the end of the calendar year to comply with federal tax requirements.
   
 
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment.
   
 
(d)  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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
   
 
(e)  Share Valuation
   
 
The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by each Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for each Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price per share for each Fund is equal to each Fund’s NAV per share.
   
 
(f)  Expenses
   
 
Expenses associated with a specific fund in the Trust are charged to that fund. Common expenses are typically allocated evenly between the funds of the Trust, or by other equitable means.
   
 
(g)  Other
   
 
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss from investment transactions on a high amortized cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.  Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in REITs are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and return of capital, as applicable. For financial statement purposes, the Funds use estimates to characterize these distributions received as return of capital, capital gain or ordinary income. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each REIT and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received for the security after the tax reporting periods are concluded, as the actual character of these distributions is not known until after the fiscal year end of a Fund. Changes to estimates will be recorded in the period they are known.  The distributions

received from REIT securities that have been classified as income and capital gains are included in dividend income and net realized gain on investments, respectively, on the Statement of Operations.  The distributions received that are classified as return of capital reduced the cost of investments on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and Passive Foreign Investment Company adjustments.
   
 
At November 30, 2019, the Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund had capital losses of $995,897 remaining which will be carried forward indefinitely to offset future realized capital gains. To the extent the Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund realizes future net capital gains, taxable distributions to its shareholders will be first offset by any unused capital loss carryovers from the year ended November 30, 2019.

Investment Adviser
   
 
The Trust has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Adviser to furnish investment advisory services to the Funds. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Funds compensate the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 0.85%, 0.35%, 0.35% and 0.35% of the average daily net assets of the Rockefeller Equity Allocation Fund, Rockefeller Core Taxable Bond Fund, Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt National Bond Fund and Rockefeller Intermediate Tax Exempt New York Bond Fund, respectively.
   
 
The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse each Fund’s other expenses through the expiration date listed below to the extent necessary to ensure that each Fund’s total annual operating expenses do not exceed each Fund’s Expense Limitation Cap, listed below, of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

Any such waiver or reimbursement is subject to later adjustment to allow the Adviser to recover amounts waived or reimbursed to the extent actual fees and expenses for a fiscal period do not exceed the lesser of: (1) the Expense Limitation Cap in place at the time of the waiver and/or reimbursement; or (2) the Expense Limitation Cap in place at the time of recovery; provided, however, that the Adviser shall only be entitled to recover such amounts for a period of three years from the date such amount was waived or reimbursed. During the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Funds did not waive any expenses.
   
 
The Funds currently do not have any expenses eligible for recoupment.

Recent Market Events
   
 
U.S. and international markets have experienced significant periods of volatility in recent years due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors including the impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic and related public health issues, growth concerns in the U.S. and overseas, uncertainties regarding interest rates, trade tensions and the threat of tariffs imposed by the U.S. and other countries. In particular, the spread of COVID-19 worldwide has resulted in disruptions to supply chains and customer activity, stress on the global healthcare system, temporary and permanent layoffs in the private sector and rising unemployment claims, reduced consumer spending, quarantines, cancellations, market declines, the closing of borders, restrictions on travel and widespread concern and uncertainty, all of which may lead to a substantial economic downturn or recession in the U.S. and global economies. The recovery from the effects of COVID-19 is uncertain and may last for an extended period of time. These developments as well as other events, such as the upcoming U.S. presidential election, could result in further market volatility and negatively affect financial asset prices, the liquidity of certain securities and the normal operations of securities exchanges and other markets, despite government efforts to address market disruptions. In addition, the Funds may face challenges with respect to their day-to-day operations if key personnel of the Adviser or other service providers are unavailable due to quarantines and restrictions on travel related to COVID-19. As a result, the risk environment remains elevated. The Adviser will monitor developments and seek to manage each Fund in a manner consistent with achieving the Fund’s investment objective, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so.

Indemnifications
 
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds.  In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties.  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, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
Information about Trustees

Any one or more of these factors, as well as other risks affecting the securities markets and investment instruments generally, could cause the actual results of the Funds to differ materially as compared to benchmarks associated with the Funds.
 
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)
 
The Funds have adopted proxy voting policies and procedures that delegate to the Adviser the authority to vote proxies. A description of the Funds’ proxy voting policies and procedures is available without charge, upon request, by calling the Funds toll free at 855-369-6209. A description of these policies and procedures is also included in the Funds’ Statement of Additional Information, which is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

HOUSEHOLDING (Unaudited)
 
In an effort to decrease costs, the Funds intend to reduce the number of duplicate prospectuses and annual and semi-annual reports you receive by sending only one copy of each to those addresses shared by two or more accounts and to shareholders the Funds reasonably believe are from the same family or household. Once implemented, if you would like to discontinue householding for your accounts, please call toll-free at 855-369-6209 to request individual copies of these documents.
