Horizons BetaPro Bull Plus and Bear Plus Exchange Traded Funds ("HBP Plus ETFs") use leveraged investment techniques that magnify gains and losses and result in greater volatility in value. HBP Plus ETFs are subject to leverage risk, and Horizons BetaPro Single Exchange Traded Funds ("HBP Single ETFs"), Horizons BetaPro Inverse Exchange Traded Funds ("HBP Inverse ETFs") and HBP Plus ETFs (collectively, “HBP ETFs”) are subject to aggressive investment risk and price volatility risk, which are described in the HBP ETF’s prospectus. Each HBP 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 HBP Single ETF or HBP 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 HBP Plus ETF’s or HBP 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 HBP ETFs. HBP ETFs are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.
