Fund Risks: An investment in the Fund is subject to numerous risks including the possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Equity securities, such as common stocks, are subject to market, economic and business risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate. As with all ETFs, Fund shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The market price normally should approximate the Fund’s net asset value per share (NAV), but the market price sometimes may be higher or lower than the NAV. The Fund is new with a limited operating history. There are a limited number of financial institutions authorized to buy and sell shares directly with the Fund, and there may be a limited number of other liquidity providers in the marketplace. There is no assurance that Fund shares will trade at any volume, or at all, on any stock exchange. Low trading activity may result in shares trading at a material discount to NAV. Please see the prospectus and summary prospectus for a complete description of principal risks.

The Fund’s investments will be concentrated in an industry or group of industries to the extent the Index is so concentrated. In such event, the value of Shares may rise and fall more than the value of shares that invest in securities of companies in a broader range of industries. Investments in securities or other instruments of foreign securities involve certain risks not involved in domestic investments and may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than investments in securities of U.S. companies.

Cruise Line, Airline and Hotel Companies may be adversely affected by a downturn in economic conditions. Due to the discretionary nature of leisure travel and spending, a downturn in economic conditions of the U.S. economy and economies in other regions of the world that results in decreased demand may significantly and negatively affect the revenues and profitability of such industries.

Airline Companies may also be significantly affected by changes in fuel prices, which may be very volatile. Due to the competitive nature of this industry, such companies may not be able to pass on increased fuel prices to customers by increasing fares. Airline Companies may also be significantly affected by the imposition of tariffs and/or changes in labor relations, insurance costs, and the imposition by the United States or other countries of taxes, tariffs or regulations applicable to airline travel, aircraft manufacturing, or aircraft sales.

Due to the discretionary nature of hotel spending, coupled with the high debt and cost structure of the hotel and lodging industry, a downturn in economic conditions of the U.S. economy and economies in other regions of the world that results in decreased demand for hotel accommodations may significantly and negatively affect the revenues and profitability of such industry.

Cruise Line Companies are subject to various risks that may cause significant losses, which includes risks related to uncertainty in travel (due to global, regional or local events), passenger safety, security, and privacy, changing consumer demands, shortages of experienced personnel, consumer perception of risk (for example, due to terrorist attacks, pandemics, and political or social violence), and changing or increased regulations.
