The Fund sells its shares directly or indirectly to The LincolnNational Life Insurance Company (“Lincoln Life”) and Lincoln Life& Annuity Company of New York (“LNY”). Lincoln Life and LNY holdthe Fund’s shares in separate accounts that support various variableannuity contracts and variable life insurance contracts. Insurancecompany separate account beneficial owners incur ongoing costssuch as the separate account’s cost of owning shares of the Fund. Theongoing Fund costs incurred by beneficial owners are included in theExpense Analysis table. The Expense Analysis table does not includeother costs incurred by beneficial owners, such as insurancecompany separate account fees and variable annuity or variable lifecontract charges.
As a Fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, includingmanagement fees; distribution and/or service (“12b-1”) fees; andother Fund expenses. Shareholders of other funds may also incurtransaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchasepayments, reinvested dividends or other distributions, redemptionfees, and exchange fees. This Expense Analysis is intended to helpyou understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in theFund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investingin other mutual funds.
The Expense Analysis is based on an investment of $1,000 invested atthe beginning of the period and held for the entire period fromJanuary 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020.
Actual ExpensesThe first section of the table, “Actual”, provides information aboutactual account values and actual expenses. You may use theinformation in this section of the table, together with the amount youinvested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result bythe number in the first section under the heading entitled “ExpensesPaid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on youraccount during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison PurposesThe second section of the table, “Hypothetical”, providesinformation about hypothetical account values and hypotheticalexpenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumedrate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’sactual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses cannotbe used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expensesyou paid for the period. You can use this information to compare theongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so,compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypotheticalexamples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant tohighlight your ongoing costs only. The Fund does not chargetransaction fees, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, orexchange fees. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful incomparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine therelative total costs of owning different funds. The Fund’s expensesshown in the table reflect fee waivers in effect.

1. Significant Accounting PoliciesThe Fund is an investment company in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Therefore, the Fund followsthe accounting and reporting guidelines for investment companies. The following accounting policies are in accordance with U.S. GAAP and areconsistently followed by the Fund.
Security Valuation–Equity securities, except those traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), are valued at the last quoted sales priceas of the time of the regular close of the New York Stock Exchange on the valuation date. Equity securities traded on Nasdaq are valued inaccordance with the Nasdaq Official Closing Price, which may not be the last sale price. If on a particular day an equity security does not trade,then the mean between the bid and ask prices is used, which approximates fair value. Open-end investment companies are valued at theirpublished net asset value (“NAV”). Investments in government money market funds have a stable NAV. Short-term debt securities utilize matrixsystems, which reflect such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings, and are supplemented by dealer and exchange quotations.Other securities and assets for which market quotations are not reliable or readily available are generally valued at fair value as determined ingood faith under policies adopted by the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). In determining whether market quotations are reliable orreadily available, various factors are taken into consideration, such as market closures or suspension of trading in a security. Futures contractsare valued at the daily quoted settlement prices.
Federal Income Taxes–No provision for federal income taxes has been made because the Fund intends to continue to qualify for federal incometax purposes as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and to make the requisitedistributions to shareholders. The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returnsto determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed not tomeet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax expense in the current year. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken orto be taken on the Fund’s federal income tax returns through the six months ended June 30, 2020 and for all open tax years (years endedDecember 31, 2016-December 31, 2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Fund’s financialstatements. If applicable, the Fund recognizes interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other expenseson the Statement of Operations. During six months ended June 30, 2020, the Fund did not incur any interest or tax penalties.
Class Accounting–Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments are allocated to the classes ofthe Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Distribution expenses relating to a specific class are charged directly to that class.
Foreign Currency Transactions– Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the prevailing exchange rates on thetransaction date in accordance with the Fund’s prospectus. The value of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies is translateddaily into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar. Transaction gains or losses resulting from changes inexchange rates during the reporting period or upon settlement of the foreign currency transaction are reported in operations for the currentperiod. The Fund does not separate the portion of realized gains and losses on foreign equity securities resulting from changes in foreignexchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices. These changes are included in net realized and unrealized gain or loss oninvestments. The Fund reports certain foreign currency related transactions as components of realized gains (losses) for financial reportingpurposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income (loss) for federal income tax purposes.

1. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)Use of Estimates–The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates andassumptions that affect the fair value of investments, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilitiesat the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results coulddiffer from those estimates and the differences could be material.
Other–Expenses common to all series of the Trust are allocated to each series based on their relative net assets. Expenses exclusive to a specificseries of the Trust are charged directly to the applicable series. Security transactions are recorded on the date the securities are purchased orsold (i.e., the trade date) for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in calculating realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securitiesare those of the specific securities sold. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrualbasis. Taxable non-cash dividends are recorded as dividend income. Distributions received from investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts(“REITs”) are recorded as dividend income on the ex-dividend date, subject to reclassification upon notice of the character of such distributionsby the issuer or management estimate. Discounts and premiums on debt securities are amortized to interest income over the lives of therespective securities using the effective interest method. The Fund declares and distributes dividends from net investment income, if any,semi-annually. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed annually. Dividends and distributions, if any, arerecorded on the ex-dividend date.
Subject to seeking best execution, the Fund may direct certain security trades to brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the relatedbrokerage commissions to the Fund in cash. In general, best execution refers to many factors, including the price paid or received for a security,the commission charged, the promptness and reliability of execution, the confidentiality and placement of the transaction, and other factorsaffecting the overall benefit obtained by the Fund on the transaction. There were no commission rebates for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction betweenmarket participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. A three level hierarchy for fair value measurements has beenestablished based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and referbroadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions marketparticipants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity.Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing theasset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. Each investment in its entirety is assigned a levelbased upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three level hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.
Level 1–inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, open-end investment companies, futurescontracts, options contracts)

3. Investments (continued)Level 2–other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted
prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable forthe assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and defaultrates) or other market-corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, swap contracts, foreign currency exchangecontracts, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing)
Level 3–inputs are significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments) (e.g.,indicative quotes from brokers, fair valued securities)

5. DerivativesU.S. GAAP requires disclosures that enable shareholders to understand: 1) how and why an entity uses derivatives; 2) how they are accountedfor; and 3) how they affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position.
Futures Contracts–The Fund may use futures contracts in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective and strategies. The Fund mayinvest in futures contracts to hedge the Fund’s existing portfolio securities against fluctuations in value caused by changes in interest rates ormarket conditions; as a cash management tool; to hedge currency risks associated with the Fund’s investments; to facilitate investments inportfolio securities; and to reduce costs. In addition, the Fund may take long or short positions in futures to seek to stabilize overall portfoliovolatility and to hedge overall market risk. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund deposits U.S. or foreign cash or pledges U.S.government securities to a broker, equal to the minimum “initial margin” requirements of the exchange on which the contract is traded.Subsequent payments are received from the broker or paid to the broker each day, based on the daily fluctuation in the market value of thecontract. These receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded daily by the Fund as unrealized gains or losses until thecontracts are closed. When the contracts are closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of thecontract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Risks of entering into futures contracts include potential imperfect

5. Derivatives (continued)correlation between the futures contracts and the underlying securities and the possibility of an illiquid secondary market for these instruments.When investing in futures, there is reduced counterparty credit risk to the Fund because futures are exchange-traded and the exchange’sclearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees against default.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Fund used futures contracts to facilitate investments in portfolio securities; as a cashmanagement tool and to reduce transaction costs.

6. Risk FactorsThe Fund invests in REITs and is subject to the risks associated with that industry. If the Fund acquires a direct interest in real estate as a resultof defaults or receives rental income directly from real estate holdings, its tax status as a regulated investment company could be jeopardized.The Fund had no direct real estate holdings during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Fund’s REIT holdings are also affected by interestrate changes, particularly if the REITs it holds use floating rate debt to finance their ongoing operations.
Natural or environmental disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, and other severe weather-related phenomenagenerally, and widespread disease and illness, including pandemics and epidemics, have been and can be highly disruptive to economies andmarkets. They may adversely impact individual companies, sectors, industries, markets, currencies, interest and inflation rates, credit ratings,investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of the Fund’s investments. For example, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which wasfirst detected in 2019, has resulted in, among other things, stressors to healthcare service infrastructure, country border closings, business andschool closings, and disruptions to supply chains and customer activity. Natural disaster/epidemic risk could have a significant adverse impacton the Fund’s portfolio investments.
7. Contractual ObligationsThe Fund enters into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure underthese arrangements is unknown; however, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed theFund’s existing contracts and expects the risk of material loss to be remote.
8. Recent Accounting PronouncementsIn August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update, ASU No. 2018-13, which changes certain fairvalue measurement disclosure requirements. The ASU, in addition to other modifications and additions, removes the requirement to disclose theamount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for the timing of transfers between levels andthe valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements. As of December 31, 2018, the Trust had early adopted the removal of applicabledisclosures. The ASU was fully adopted in the current period and the implementation of the ASU did not have an impact on the Fund’s financialstatements.

Liquidity Risk Management
Consistent with Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Fund has established a liquidity risk management program to governits approach to managing liquidity risk (the �Program�). The Program is overseen by the Liquidity Committee (the �Committee�), a committeecomprised of representatives of LIAC, the Fund’s investment adviser. The Fund’s Board of Trustees (“Board”) has approved the designation of theCommittee to oversee the Program. The Program’s principal objectives include supporting the Fund’s compliance with limits on investments inilliquid assets and mitigating the risk that the Fund will be unable to meet its redemption obligations timely. The Program also includes a numberof elements that support the management and assessment of liquidity risk, including an annual assessment of factors that influence the Fund’sliquidity and the periodic classification and re-classification of the Fund’s investments into groupings that reflect the Committee’s assessmentof their relative liquidity under current market conditions. At a meeting of the Board on March 2-3, 2020, the Committee provided a writtenreport to the Board addressing the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of implementation of the Program for the period of December 1, 2018through December 31, 2019. During the period covered by the report, there were no liquidity events that impacted the Fund or its respectiveability to timely meet redemptions without dilution to existing shareholders. The Committee determined, and reported to the Board, that theProgram had operated adequately and effectively to manage the Fund’s liquidity risk. There can be no assurance that the Program will achieveits objectives in the future. Please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for more information regarding the Fund’s exposure to liquidity risk and otherprincipal risks to which an investment in the Fund may be subject.
