Exhibit 13(a)(4)

Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On January 30, 2024, Cohen & Company, Ltd. (“Cohen”) was dismissed as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Roumell Opportunistic Value Fund (the “Fund”). At a meeting held on March 7, 2024, based on the recommendation and approval of the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees approved the appointment of Tait, Weller & Baker, LLP (“Tait Weller”) as the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2024.

Cohen’s audit reports on the Fund’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2022 and August 31, 2023, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2023 and for the interim period ended January 30, 2024, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) with Cohen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Cohen, would have caused it to make a reference in connection with its opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

The registrant requested that Cohen furnish it with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter is filed as an exhibit to Form N-CSR.

During the fiscal periods ended August 31, 2022, August 31, 2023, and for the interim period ended March 7, 2024, neither the Fund, nor anyone on the Fund’s behalf, consulted with Tait Weller with respect to: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might have been rendered on the Fund’s financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided that Tait Weller concluded was an important factor considered by the Fund in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
