It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Exposure to assets represented by an index is available through investable financial instruments that seek to provide an investment return based on the performance of an index. A decision to invest in any such financial instrument should not be made in reliance on any of the statements set forth in this document. Prospective investors are advised to make an investment in any such financial instrument only after carefully considering the risks associated with investing in such financial instruments, as detailed in an offering memorandum or similar document that is prepared by or on behalf of the issuer of the financial instrument or vehicle. The financial instruments are not sponsored, promoted, sold or supported in any other manner by Solactive AG nor does Solactive AG offer any express orimplicitguarantee or assurance either with regard to the results of using the Index and/or Index trade mark or the Index level at any time or in any other respect. Solactive AG makes no assurance that financial instruments based on the index will accurately track index performance or provide positive investment returns. Solactive AG isnotaninvestment adviser and nothing in this factsheet constitutes a recommendation by Solactive AG to invest capital in financial instruments nor does it in any way represent an assurance or opinion of Solactive AG with regard to any investment in a financial instrument. Inclusion of a security within an index is not a recommendation by Solactive AGtobuy, sell, or hold such security, nor is it considered to be investment advice. The index is launched on 28-Nov-2008. All information, including index levels, provided for any date or time period prior to the launch date is back-tested. Back-tested performance is not actual performance, but is hypothetical. The back-test calculations are based on the same or fundamentally the same methodology that was in effect when the index was launched. A back-test calculation means that no actual investment which allowed a tracking of the performance of the Index was possible at any time during the period of the back-test calculation and that as a result any comparison is purely hypothetical. The methodology and the model used for the calculation and back-test calculation of the Index were developed with the advantage of hindsight. In reality, it is not possible to invest with the advantage of hindsight and therefore this performance comparison is purely theoretical. Past performance should not be considered as indication or guarantee of any future results. Charts and graphs are provided for illustrative purposes.
