&lt;p style="font: bold 11pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 4pt 0 1pt"&gt;Objective.&lt;/p&gt;

Trust seeks above-average total return through a combination of capital appreciation and dividend income. Under normal circumstances,
the Trust will invest at least 80% of its assets in dividend-paying securities. The Trust is concentrated (i.e., invests 25% or more of
Trust assets) in common stocks of companies within the financials sector&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: bold 11pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 4pt 0 1pt"&gt;Portfolio Selection Process.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;The
Trust invests in stocks selected by Dorsey, Wright &amp;amp; Associates (&#x201c;DWA&#x201d;) using their proprietary investment process and
is designed to be held over the fixed 15-month term of the Trust. Through the selection process, DWA seeks to identify those companies
that they believe will meet the dividend objective of this portfolio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Identify
the Universe&lt;/i&gt;. The first step in the selection process is to identify the universe of stocks from which the portfolio is selected.
DWA begins with the companies listed in the S&amp;amp;P 900&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt; font-variant: small-caps"&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;Index.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Measure
Relative Strength Ratings&lt;/i&gt;. All of the securities in the universe are scored on several measures of relative strength. These measures
rank securities based on intermediate-term price performance relative to a broad market benchmark, and relative to the other securities
in the universe. Each security is given a score that allows DWA to determine where it ranks relative to all other securities in the universe
with no subjectivity. Each security must meet a minimum relative strength ranking score to be eligible for inclusion in the portfolio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Determine
the Portfolio&#x2019;s Sector Weighting Exposure&lt;/i&gt;. The next step in the process is to determine the portfolio&#x2019;s sector exposure.
The sector weightings are determined by a combination of current market weights, the relative strength ranking and those with the highest
dividend yield of the securities within each sector as of the date the portfolio was selected. The goal is to achieve a portfolio of high
relative strength securities with an overall sector weighting close to current market weights.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Select
the Portfolio&lt;/i&gt;. The final step is to select the top 50 companies for the portfolio based on a combination of relative strength and
dividend yield. The stocks are equally weighted within the portfolio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;The
S&amp;amp;P 900&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt; font-variant: small-caps"&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;Index
is a broad market portfolio representing the large- and mid-cap companies of the U.S. equity market. The S&amp;amp;P 900&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt; font-variant: small-caps"&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;combines two leading indexes: the S&amp;amp;P 500&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt; font-variant: small-caps"&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;and the S&amp;amp;P MidCap 400&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 9pt; font-variant: small-caps"&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;While not
a part of the Trust&#x2019;s portfolio selection process, the Trust also invests in&lt;/span&gt; foreign securities, REITs and companies with
various market capitalizations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;As
with any similar investment, there can be no guarantee that the objective of the Trust will be achieved. See &#x201c;Risk Factors&#x201d;
for a discussion of the risks of investing in the Trust.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
