- For Dealer Use Only - 24 Disclaimers Horizons BetaPro Bull Plus and Bear Plus Exchange Traded Funds ("BetaPro Plus ETFs") use leveraged investment techniques that magnify gains and losses and result in greater volatility in value. BetaPro Plus ETFs are subject to leverage risk, and Horizons BetaPro Single Exchange Traded Funds ("BetaPro Single ETFs"), Horizons BetaPro Inverse Exchange Traded Funds ("BetaPro Inverse ETFs") and BetaPro Plus ETFs (collectively, "BetaPro ETFs") are subject to aggressive investment risk and price volatility risk, which are described in the respective BetaPro ETF's prospectus. Each BetaPro Plus ETF seeks a return that is either 200% or -200% of the performance of a specified underlying index, commodity or benchmark (the "target") for a single day. Each BetaPro Single ETF or BetaPro Inverse ETF seeks a return that is 100% or - 100%, respectively, of the performance of a specified underlying target. Due to the compounding of daily returns, an BetaPro Plus ETF's or BetaPro Inverse ETF's, returns over periods other than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the performance of the specified underlying target for the same period. Investors should monitor their holdings, as frequently as daily, to ensure that they remain consistent with their investment strategies. Commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with the BetaPro ETFs. BetaPro ETFs are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.
