Leveraged ETFs Disclaimer
Double and Inverse ETFs are very different from most other exchange-traded funds. Returns over periods longer than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the performance of their underlying index for the same period. This effect becomes more pronounced as the volatility of the underlying index increases. Investors should monitor their investment in a Double or Inverse ETF daily.

New Issue Disclaimer
A preliminary prospectus relating to these securities has been filed with securities commissions or similar authorities in certain provinces of Canada but has not yet become final for the purpose of a distribution to the public. This advertisement shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale or any acceptance of an offer to buy these securities in any province of Canada prior to the time a receipt for the final prospectus or other authorization is obtained from the securities commission or similar authority in such province.
