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

Trust seeks above-average capital appreciation. Under normal circumstances, the Trust will invest at least 80% of its assets in common
stocks of precious metals and mining companies and ETPs which hold physical gold, silver and other precious metals. The Trust is concentrated
(i.e., invests &lt;/span&gt;25% or more &lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;of Trust assets) in common stocks of companies within the materials
sector.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

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

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;The
Trust is a professionally-selected unit investment trust that invests in common stocks of metals and mining companies and ETPs which hold
physical gold, silver and other precious metals. The Trust will not invest directly in or physically hold precious metals (e.g. gold,
silver and platinum). A significant percentage of the Common Stocks, certain of which are ADRs, are issued by companies headquartered
or incorporated in Canada or other foreign countries. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;In
selecting ETPs for the Trust, our research department began by reviewing all ETPs that invest primarily in precious metals. They then
reviewed these ETPs for size, liquidity and expense ratio. Since all the funds simply hold the physical commodities, they generally selected
the funds with the lowest expense ratio and weighted the funds based on size and liquidity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 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 dividend-paying securities, companies headquartered
or incorporated in emerging or developing markets and companies with various market capitalizations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;As
with any similar investments, 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;
