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

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;The Trust seeks current monthly income,
with capital appreciation as a secondary objective.&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 will invest in a diversified portfolio of income-generating Funds. Vest Financial LLC (&#x201c;Vest&#x201d;), an affiliate of the
Sponsor, will select a portfolio that consists of First Trust ETFs advised by First Trust Advisors L.P., an affiliate of the Trust&#x2019;s
Sponsor. &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
Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in two sleeves of First Trust ETFs: (1) First Trust equity target income
ETFs (&#x201c;Equity Target Income ETFs&#x201d;) that provide exposure to equity securities and utilize an option strategy consisting of
purchasing and writing (selling) call options, including FLexible EXchange Options (&#x201c;FLEX Options&#x201d;), on individual stocks
and/or an underlying equity ETF or index to generate premium income and (2) First Trust ETFs that seek to generate income through exposure
to synthetic autocallable contracts, which involve entering into swap agreements and/or option contracts that seek to deliver a return
reflecting the collective performance of a laddered portfolio of synthetic autocallable contracts (either directly or through exposure
to an index that tracks the collective performance of such a portfolio). A synthetic autocallable contract is a theoretically created
financial instrument designed to replicate the defined return characteristics of an autocallable yield note. An autocallable yield note
is a debt obligation linked to the performance of one or more underlying assets, such as broad-based U.S. equity indices or exchange-traded
funds that seek to track the performance of such an index, that generates income when certain specified market conditions are met on recurring
observation dates. Autocallable yield notes are typically structured such that both the income generated and the portion of the principal
investment returned to an investor upon maturity are contingent on the performance of the underlying reference asset(s). For example,
a coupon payment will not be made for a given observation date if the value of the underlying reference asset(s) is below a specified
level on that observation date. In addition, the full amount of an investor&#x2019;s principal investment will not be returned if the autocallable
yield note is not called before maturity and the value of the underlying reference asset(s) at maturity is below a specified level. &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;Each
group will represent approximately 50% of the Trust&#x2019;s portfolio on the date of selection. Within the Equity Target Income ETFs sleeve,
approximately 30% of the portfolio will be allocated to broad or core equity strategies and approximately 20% to of the portfolio will
be allocated to thematic equity strategies.&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
Trust will invest in ETFs that meet the Trust&#x2019;s liquidity requirements that, in the opinion of the Sponsor, have the best prospects
to meet the Trust&#x2019;s investment objective. To be included in the Trust&#x2019;s portfolio, each ETF must have a minimum market capitalization
of $50,000,000. The Trust intends only to acquire shares of ETFs in the secondary market and will not engage in any principal transactions
with the ETFs. Eligible ETFs within each sleeve will be weighted using a Risk-Adjusted Income Score, calculated as the ETF&#x2019;s 12-month
distribution rate divided by its long-term annualized volatility, with the resulting scores normalized within each sleeve. For an ETF
with an operating history of at least 12 months, long-term annualized volatility is the ETF's trailing annualized volatility measured
since the ETF's inception. For an ETF with an operating history of fewer than 12 months as of the date the Risk-Adjusted Income Score
is calculated, long-term annualized volatility is the annualized volatility of a back-tested proxy for the ETF constructed to be reflective
of the ETF&#x2019;s hypothetical performance. This rules-based approach is intended to favor strategies that provide higher income per
unit of realized risk while maintaining the Trust&#x2019;s strategic sleeve allocations.&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;In
connection with the Trust&#x2019;s investments in ETFs advised by First Trust Advisors L.P., an affiliate of the Trust&#x2019;s Sponsor,
First Trust Advisors L.P. will receive advisory fees from the underlying ETFs which it would not otherwise receive if the Trust invested
solely in ETFs advised by unaffiliated third-parties. This may provide an incentive for the Sponsor to select ETFs advised by First Trust
Advisors L.P. over ETFs advised by unaffiliated third-parties. The Sponsor may invest in an affiliated ETF even in circumstances where
an unaffiliated ETF may have lower fees or better performance over certain time periods. However, the Sponsor selected what it considered
to be the best suited ETFs to achieve the Trust&#x2019;s investment objectives even though there may be other ETFs, including those advised
by unaffiliated third-parties, that provide similar results.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt"&gt;&#160;&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;While
not a part of the Trust&#x2019;s portfolio selection process, the Trust has exposure to dividend-paying securities and large capitalization
companies through the Trust&#x2019;s investments in the Funds. &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;As
with any similar investments, there can be no guarantee that the objectives 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;
