Important Disclosures
Fund shares are not individually redeemable and will be issued and
redeemed at their “Net Asset Value” (NAV) only through certain
authorized broker-dealers in large, specified blocks of shares called
creation units and otherwise can be bought and sold only through
exchange trading. Creation units are issued and redeemed principally in
kind. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the
secondary market.
Investing involves substantial risk and high volatility, including
possible loss of principal. An investor should consider the investment
objective, risks, charges and expenses of a Fund carefully before
investing. To obtain a prospectus and summary prospectus, which contain
this and other information, call 888.MKT.VCTR or visit
