PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund employs an indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the Index. The Fund attempts to replicate the Index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets in the stocks that make up the Index, holding each stock in approximately the same proportion as its weighting in the Index.

[Solactive AG] (the “Index Provider”) compiles and calculates the Index. The Index is comprised of the equity securities of the “cheapest” quintile of the 1,000 largest (by market capitalization) U.S. companies. Cheapest is defined as the lowest projected forward price-to-earnings ratio for the next twelve months (“NTM P/E”).

The NTM P/E is determined using the greater of the non-GAAP or GAAP median consensus estimate of forward price-to-earnings ratio available as of the quarter end date. Each stock in this bottom (cheapest) quintile is then equally weighted as compared to other stocks within the Index. The Index and the Fund are each reconstituted and rebalanced on a quarterly basis.

The Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., invest 25% or more of the value of its total assets) in securities of issuers in an industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Index reflects a concentration in that industry or group of industries. The components of the Index and the percentages represented by various sectors in the Index may change over time, thus the Fund’s portfolio holdings, and the extent to which it concentrates its investments, are likely to change over time.
