Disclosures 

While the Trusts will seek to provide tax-advantaged monthly distributions to income beneficiaries growing over time with inflation and increasing amounts available for charitable purposes upon termination of beneficiaries’ income interests, the Trusts’ overall investment results are subject to market risk and are not guaranteed by any person. Distributions to income beneficiaries may fluctuate with changes in economic conditions, may not grow over time at rates consistent with inflation and may decline. The tax character of distributed Trust income may vary. The principal amount available for charitable purposes upon termination of a Trust Account’s income interests may be higher or lower than the value of the Trust Account at initial funding.

U.S. Legacy Income Trust III (Trust) is no longer offered and does not accept new contributions. The Trust pursues its investment program by investing through Legacy Income Common Trust Fund (Common Trust), a common trust fund that commenced operations on April 30, 2019. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Performance is for the stated time periods only; due to market volatility, the Trust's and the Common Trust's current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Total Return for the Trust and the Common Trust is calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) with all distributions reinvested. Performance for the time periods less than or equal to one year is cumulative. Income Component of Return represents the portion of the Trust's total return that is attributable to distributions. Principal Component of Return represents the portion of the Trust's total return that is attributable to changes in NAV. Total returns and the Trust's Income Component of Return are stated net of foreign taxes withheld on dividends received on non-U.S. investments. Trust income beneficiaries are generally eligible to receive a federal income tax credit or an itemized deduction for their attributable share of unrecovered foreign withholding tax. Please see the below schedule of available federal income tax credits for foreign taxes paid.

The Common Trust’s investment program combines dividend-capture trading (focused primarily on non-U.S. equities) and a core equity approach (focused primarily on U.S. equities). The Common Trust’s long-term target allocation is approximately 60% non-U.S. equities and approximately 40% U.S. equities. Allocations will vary over time depending on portfolio income needs, dividend seasonality, risk management considerations and other factors. The Common Trust typically maintains 140-200 holdings, with a maximum active weight vs. benchmark of 3%. In addition to other risk management practices, the Common Trust manages stock weightings and contribution to predicted tracking error on an industry and country basis.
