Definitions: The objective of the Scientific Beta Multi-Beta Multi-Strategy Equal Risk Contribution Indexes (USA, Japan, Extended Developed Europe, Asia ex-Japan) is to represent the performance of large and medium capitalization companies from their respective regions while outperforming the capitalization-weighted reference index for that region, with a limited amount of relative risk against that reference.

The S&P 500 is an index of 500 stocks chosen by factors such as market size, liquidity and industry grouping. The Index is designed to be a leading indicator of U.S. equities and is meant to reflect the risk/return characteristics of the large-cap universe.

The STOXX Europe 600 Index is derived from the STOXX Europe Total Market Index (TMI) and is a subset of the STOXX Global 1800 Index. With a fixed number of 600 components, the STOXX Europe 600 Index represents large, mid and small capitalization companies across 18 countries of the European region: Austria, , Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the , Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

The MSCI Pacific ex Japan Index captures large and mid cap representation across 4 of 5 Developed Markets (DM) countries in the Pacific region (excluding Japan). With 150 constituents, the index covers approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization in each country.

The MSCI Japan Index is designed to measure the performance of the large and mid cap segments of the Japanese market. With 318 constituents, the index covers approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization in Japan. Active Share is the percentage of holdings in a portfolio that do not overlap with the benchmark index.

Carefully consider the Funds’ investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Funds’ summary or full prospectus, which may be obtained by calling 1-888-GX-FUND-1 (1.888.493.8631), or by visiting www.globalxfunds.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, international investments may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles or from economic or political instability in other nations. For the Scientific Beta Japan ETF, the Japanese economy may be subject to considerable degrees of economic, political and social instability, which could have a negative impact on Japanese securities. In addition, Japan is subject to the risk of natural disasters, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, typhoons and tsunamis, which could negatively affect the Fund.

Diversification may not protect against market risk. There is no assurance the goals of the strategy discussed will be met.

Shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Global X NAVs are calculated using prices as of 4:00 PM Eastern Time. The market price is the Mid- Point between the Bid and Ask price as of the close of exchange and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at any other times.
