Explanation of Ratings: KBW Research Department provides three core ratings: Outperform, Market Perform, and Underperform, and three ancillary ratings: Suspended, Restricted, and Covered-Not Rated. For purposes of New York Stock Exchange Rule 472 and FINRA Rule 2241, Outperform is classified as a Buy, Market Perform is classified as a Hold, and Underperform is classified as a Sell. Suspended indicates that KBW’s investment rating and/or target price have been temporarily suspended due to applicable regulations and/or KBW policies. Restricted indicates that KBW is precluded from providing an investment rating or price target due to the firm’s role in connection with a merger or other strategic financial transaction. Covered-Not Rated indicates that KBW is not providing an investment rating and/or price target due to the lack of publicly available information and/or its inability to adequately quantify the publicly available information to sufficiently produce such metrics. North American Stocks and European Stocks are rated based on the share price upside to target price relative to the relevant sector index performance on a 12-month horizon. Outperform rated stocks have a greater than 10 percentage point (“pp”) relative performance versus the sector, Market Perform rated stocks between +10pp to -10pp relative performance versus the sector, and Underperform rated stocks a lower than 10pp relative performance versus the sector. The 12-month price target may be determined by the stock’s fundamentally driven fair value and/or other factors (e.g., takeover premium or illiquidity discount). Please refer to important disclosures and analyst certification information on pages 24 - 27. 24 August 2, 2016 Getting to Know the KBW Nasdaq Index Family: 2nd Ed.- Welcome, KFTX! KBW Model Portfolio: “Model Portfolio Buy” - Companies placed on this list are expected to generate a total rate of return (percentage price change plus dividend yield) of 10% or more over the next 3 to 6 months. “Model Portfolio Sell” - Companies placed on this list are expected to generate a total rate of return (percentage price change plus dividend yield) at or below -10% over the next 3 to 6 months. The purpose of the Model Portfolio is to inform institutional investors of KBWI’s short-term (as described above) outlook for a particular industry sector. The Portfolio is not available for purchase or sale, cannot be duplicated as shown, is hypothetical and is for illustrative purposes only. For a more detailed description of the selection criteria and other specifics related to the construction of the Model Portfolio, please refer to the January 5, 2010 Model Portfolio Primer and/or contact your KBWI representative for more information. The Model Portfolio should be viewed as a short-term outlook of a particular industry sector, not as individual security recommendations. The Model Portfolio uses a three-to-six-month time horizon and should not be considered when making longer term investments. KBWI Research publishes research with a 12-month outlook on each issuer of securities contained in the Model Portfolio. Investors who are interested in a particular security should request KBWI Research’s coverage of such securities by contacting your KBWI representative. KBW research contains analyses of fundamentals underlying each issuer. This report is intended for mroberts@kbw.com. Unauthorized redistribution of this report is prohibited. KBWI’s long-term recommendations may differ from recommendations made for the Model Portfolio. These differences are the result of different time horizons—KBWI research has a 12-month outlook and the Model Portfolio has a three-to-six-month outlook. Although the model portfolio is based upon actual performance of actual investments, KBWI did not recommend that investors purchase this combination—or hypothetical portfolio—of investments during the time period depicted here. As this hypothetical portfolio was designed with the benefit of hindsight, the choice of investments contained in it reflects a subjective choice by KBWI. Accordingly, this hypothetical portfolio may reflect a choice of investments that performed better than an actual portfolio, which was recommended during the depicted time frame, would have performed during the same time period. Moreover, unlike an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading wherein market conditions or other risk factors may have caused the holder of the portfolio to liquidate or retain all or part of the represented holdings. Stifel/KBW Income Opportunity List, Stifel/KBW Analyst Select List, and Stifel/KBW Select Income Opportunity—The Crossovers List: These lists include companies that analysts believe have the most attractive risk-adjusted return potential over the next 12 months, or, in the case of the Stifel/KBW Income Opportunity Ideas List, have yield in excess of 2%. In some cases, analysts who cover more than one sub-sector may have more than one name on the list. Other Research Methods: Please be advised that KBW provides to certain customers on request specialized research products or services that focus on covered stocks from a particular perspective. These products or services include, but are not limited to, compilations, reviews, and analysis that may use different research methodologies or focus on the prospects for individual stocks as compared to other covered stocks or over differing time horizons or under assumed market events or conditions.

ETF and Index Reports. The author of index and related ETF reports is the Director of KBWI’s Research Department, who is also the head of the KBWI Index Committee. This Index Committee selects index components for the indexes upon which the recommended ETFs are based. ETF Risks. There are risks involved with investing in ETFs, including possible loss of money. ETFs may not always trade or price as expected. Generally, security classifications used in calculating allocation tables are as of the last trading day of the previous month. ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETFs net asset value. Diversification does not ensure a profit and may not protect against loss in declining markets. Investors should refer to the individual ETF prospectus for a more detailed discussion of the specific risks and considerations for an individual ETF. Investing in a single sector may be subject to more volatility than funds investing in a diverse group of sectors. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns. In general, ETFs can be expected to move up or down in value with the value of the applicable index. Although ETFs may be bought and sold on the exchange through any brokerage account, ETFs are not individually redeemable from the Fund. Investors may Please refer to important disclosures and analyst certification information on pages 24 - 27. 25 August 2, 2016 Getting to Know the KBW Nasdaq Index Family: 2nd Ed.- Welcome, KFTX! acquire ETFs and tender them for redemption through the Fund in Creation Unit Aggregations only, please see the prospectus (link below) for more details.
