The example also assumes that the Fund provides a return of 5% a year and that operating expenses remain the same.

The Index is based on a proprietary methodology developed and maintained by RAFI Indices, LLC (the “Index Provider”). The Index consists of U.S. equity securities of micro-, small- and mid-capitalization companies that are believed to be value stocks. The Index is based on a mean reversion trading strategy and will generally include stocks whose prices have depreciated below a pre-determined benchmark. The Index Provider has developed two cap-weight market indices that will serve as the benchmarks for the Index. This Index is based on the premise that a depreciated stock price will eventually revert/return to its average price levels. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As noted above, the Index Provider has developed two cap-weight market indices, the Cap-weight 500 Index and the Cap-weight 1000 Index (each an “Underlying Index”, collectively the “Underlying Indices”). These Underlying Indices serve as the starting point for the index construction process. The Underlying Indices will consist of the equity securities of the top 500 U.S. companies or top 1000 U.S. companies, respectively, as ranked by the Index Provider. The Index Provider uses two Underlying Indices in order to have a larger eligible pool of securities which provides greater breadth and diversification to the Index. All securities in the Cap-weight 500 Index are included in the Cap-weight 1000 Index. Securities deleted from the Cap-weight 500 Index that remain on the Cap-weight 1000 Index are eligible for the Index.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Index Provider, at each annual selection date (last business day of April each year) for the Index, using a look back period of five years, identifies each company that no longer is included in one or both of the Underlying Indices for possible inclusion in the </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Index.

These companies’ securities may be more volatile and less liquid than those of more established companies. Often mid-capitalization companies and the industries in which they focus are still evolving and, as a result, they may be more sensitive to changing market conditions. <div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Micro- and Small-Capitalization Companies Risk.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> Investing in securities of micro- and small-capitalization companies involves greater risk than customarily is associated with investing in larger, more established companies. Micro- and small-capitalization companies often have less predictable earnings, more limited product lines, markets, distribution channels and financial resources, and the management of such companies may be dependent upon one or a few people. The securities of micro- and small-capitalization companies may be more volatile and less liquid than mid-capitalization and large-capitalization companies. Micro-capitalization companies may be more volatile than small-capitalization companies.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Value Investing Risk.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> Securities issued by companies that may be perceived as undervalued may be appropriately valued. Value securities may fail to appreciate for long periods of time or may never realize their full potential value. In addition, the Fund’s ability to realize any benefits of investing in value securities may depend on the Fund’s ability to stay invested until the market’s perception of such securities change. Value securities have generally performed better than non-value securities during periods of economic recovery (although there is no assurance that they will continue to do so). Value securities may go in and out of favor over time.</span></div> <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Investment Risk.</span> When you sell your Shares, they could be worth less than what you paid for them. The Fund could lose money due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during market downturns. Securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular asset classes or industries represented in the markets. The value of a security may decline due to general market conditions, economic trends or events that are not specifically related to the issuer of the security. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises, and environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fire, and floods, may add to instability in world economies and volatility in markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. The value of a security may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or group of industries. During a general downturn in the securities markets, multiple asset classes may be negatively affected. Therefore, you may lose money by investing in the Fund. <span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Equity Investing Risk.</span> An investment in the Fund involves risks similar to those of investing in any fund holding equity securities, such as market fluctuations, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The values of equity securities could decline generally or could underperform other investments. In addition, securities may decline in value due to factors affecting a specific issuer, market or securities markets generally. <div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Sector Risk.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> To the extent the Fund invests more heavily in particular sectors of the economy, its performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those sectors.

The Index Provider believes, based on its internal research, that capitalization weighted indexes generally add and delete companies at the wrong time. Capitalization-weighted indexes are typically structured to add new constituents after a company’s stock price has increased significantly and remove a company after its stock price has dropped significantly. Capitalization-weighted indexes are also designed to increase a company’s weighting as its stock price increases which, in the Index Provider’s opinion, results in a systematic overweight to the most overvalued companies and a systematic underweight to the most undervalued companies. To avoid this perceived valuation issue, the Index Provider has designed the Index to identify and select companies that are beginning to experience growth and increased relevance in their industry and remove companies that are experiencing declines in value and relevance in their industry. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">When selecting companies for inclusion in the Index, the Index Provider employs a combination of fundamental valuation measures and market-capitalization weighting.

The Fund could lose money due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during market downturns. Securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular asset classes or industries represented in the markets. The value of a security may decline due to general market conditions, economic trends or events that are not specifically related to the issuer of the security. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises, and environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fire, and floods, may add to instability in world economies and volatility in markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. The value of a security may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or group of industries. During a general downturn in the securities markets, multiple asset classes may be negatively affected.

In addition, trading in Shares on the Exchange may be halted. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of Shares may begin to mirror the liquidity of its underlying portfolio holdings, which can be less liquid than Shares, potentially causing the market price of Shares to deviate from its NAV. The spread varies over time for Shares of the Fund based on the Fund’s trading volume and market liquidity and is generally lower if the Fund has high trading volume and market liquidity, and higher if the Fund has little trading volume and market liquidity (which is often the case for funds that are newly launched or small in size).</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Non-Diversification Risk.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> Because the Fund is non-diversified, it may be more sensitive to economic, business, political or other changes affecting individual issuers or investments than a diversified fund, which may result in greater fluctuation in the value of the Shares and greater risk of loss.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Sector Risk.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> To the extent the Fund invests more heavily in particular sectors of the economy, its performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those sectors.

For example, the Fund incurs operating expenses and portfolio transaction costs not incurred by the Index. In addition, the Fund may not be fully invested in the securities of the Index at all times or may hold securities not included in the Index. The Fund’s use of a representative sampling strategy to track the Index may produce greater tracking error than if the Fund employed a full replication strategy.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Sampling Risk.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> To the extent the Fund uses a representative sampling approach, it will hold a smaller number of securities than are in the Index. As a result, an adverse development respecting a security held by the Fund could result in a greater decline in NAV than would be the case if the Fund held all of the securities in the Index. Conversely, a positive development relating to a security in the Index that is not held by the Fund could cause the Fund to underperform the Index. To the extent the assets in the Fund are smaller, these risks will be greater.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Index Calculation Risk.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> The Index relies on various sources of information to assess the criteria of issuers included in the Index, including fundamental information that may be based on assumptions and estimates.
