First Trust Advisors L.P. Announces Distribution for Exchange-Traded Fund

First Trust Advisors L.P. (“FTA”) announces the declaration of the regular quarterly distribution for First Trust NASDAQ® Clean Edge® Smart Grid Infrastructure Index Fund, an exchange-traded fund advised by FTA.

The following dates apply to today’s distribution declarations:

First Trust Advisors L.P., the Fund’s investment advisor, along with its affiliate First Trust Portfolios L.P., are privately-held companies which provide a variety of investment services, including asset management and financial advisory services, with collective assets under management or supervision of approximately $70 billion as of May 31, 2013, through unit investment trusts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, mutual funds and separate managed accounts.

You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Fund before investing. The prospectus for the Fund contains this and other important information and are available free of charge by calling toll-free at 1-800-621-1675 or visiting www.ftportfolios.com. A prospectus should be read carefully before investing.

Past performance is no assurance of future results. Principal Risk Factors: The Fund’s shares will change in value, and you could lose money by investing in the Fund. An investment in the Fund involves risk similar to those of investing in any fund of equity securities traded on exchanges. The risks of investing in the Fund are spelled out in its prospectus, shareholder report, and other regulatory filings.

The Fund may invest in small capitalization and mid capitalization companies. Such companies may experience greater price volatility than larger, more established companies. The Fund may be concentrated in securities of companies in a certain sector or industry which subjects the Fund to additional risks, including limited diversification. The Fund invests in foreign securities and may be subject to additional risks not associated with domestic securities. An index ETF seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield of an index. You should anticipate that the value of the Fund’s shares will decline, more or less, in correlation with any decline in the value of the index. The Fund’s return may not match the return of the index. Unlike the Fund, the index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore does not incur the expenses incurred by the Fund.

The Fund is also subject to replication management risk, non-diversification risk, industrials sector risk, smart grid risk, non U.S. securities risk, depository receipts risk, currency risk and securities lending risk.

Investors buying or selling Fund shares on the secondary market may incur brokerage commissions. Investors who sell Fund shares may receive less than the share’s net asset value. Unlike shares of open-end mutual funds, investors are generally not able to purchase Fund shares directly from the Fund and individual shares are not redeemable. However, specified large blocks of shares called “creation units” can be purchased from, or redeemed to, the Fund.
