Commissions, management fees, brokerage fees and expenses all
may be associated with Exchange Traded Funds. Please read the
prospectus before investing. Exchange Traded Funds are not
guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may
not be repeated.
The payment of distributions is not guaranteed and may
fluctuate. The payment of distributions should not be confused with
an Exchange Traded Fund's performance, rate of return or yield. If
distributions paid by the Exchange Traded Fund are greater than the
performance of the Exchange Traded Fund, your original investment
will shrink. Distributions paid as a result of capital gains
realized by an Exchange Traded Fund, and income and dividends
earned by an Exchange Traded Fund are taxable in your hands in the
year they are paid. Your adjusted cost base will be reduced by the
amount of any returns of capital. If your adjusted cost base goes
below zero, you will have to pay capital gains tax on the amount
below zero.
