Core-Satellite investing is a method of portfolio construction designed to balance expected risk and return in a portfolio by combining “core” strategies that
seek to minimize portfolio volatility and costs with “satellite” strategies that seek to enhance portfolio returns compared to a benchmark. Satellite portfolio
allocations generally fall into four strategies that seek to: resist general fluctuations in the market (defensive); dampen risks that may cause portfolio losses
(cautious); selectively participate in market fluctuations that may enhance portfolio returns (opportunistic); fully participate in upward market swings that
may enhance portfolio returns (aggressive).
This should not be construed as investment advice nor as a recommendation of a particular strategy or product. Consult with your financial advisor before
making any investment decisions. There is no assurance that an investment strategy will outperform or achieve its investment objectives.

The Fundamental Index Approach
Why a Multi-Factor Approach?
Any single metric index works, but has a structural bias:
– Sales—Overexposed to large companies with thin margins
– Cash flow—Overexposed to cyclical stocks at cyclical peaks
– Dividends—Overexposed to mature, high-yield companies, and exclusion of
growth companies
– Book Value—Overexposed to companies with aggressive accounting
Composite approach seeks to improve methodology
– Seeks to diversify exposure to data source, sectors, and other risks
– Seeks to improve robustness of methodology
– Potential for positive risk-return performance

Alternatively Weighted Fixed Income: Assigns issuer weights based upon
alternative weighting methodologies including equal, fundamental or other nonmarket capitalization weighting approaches.

return awarded to the investor for taking additional risk rather than by
accepting the market return.
Basis Point: A basis point is the movement of interest rates or yields expressed
in hundredths of a point.
a benchmark.
Expense Ratio: the total annual fees and expenses charged by a fund divided
by average daily net assets. ETFs and index mutual funds tend to have lower

have active management.
Equity Hedge/Tail Risk: A form of portfolio risk that arises when the
possibility that an investment will move greater than what is shown by a normal
distribution.
Beta/Traditional: is a measure of risk representing how a security is expected

market movements of a benchmark without incorporating leverage.

Down/Up Capture: Down capture measures how severely periods of negative
benchmark returns affect a manager. Up capture measures how greatly periods
of positive benchmark returns affect a manager.
Drawdowns: refers to the period of decline for an investment and usually
quoted as a percentage between the highest net asset value to the lowest.

Momentum: Ranks securities relative to peers, utilizing relative strength
methodology to identify the strongest and weakest investment trends.
Multi Strategy Alternatives: Seek positive lo correlations returns compared to
the broader market through investments in a combination of strategies, that

Glossary & Terms
Net Asset Value (NAV): the total value of a fund’s portfolio holdings per share
or unit. Most mutual funds calculate their NAVs once per day, after the market
close. Many ETFs calculate an indication of their NAVs throughout the trading
day, in addition to calculating their NAVs once per day, after the market close.

outperform a benchmark or reduce portfolio risk, or both. Smart beta funds
may underperform cap-weighted benchmarks and increase portfolio risk.
Sharpe Ratio: is a risk-adjusted measure calculated using standard deviation
and excess return to determine reward per unit of risk. A higher Sharpe ratio
indicates better risk adjusted performance.

+When we say that our ETFs are intelligent, we mean that in several different
ways:
One of our largest family of ETFs is based on Intellidexes™ — dynamic indexes
that use rules-based quantitative analysis to choose stocks for their capital
appreciation potential. We believe this is an intelligent way for an index to select
stocks.
Our ETFs based on FTSE RAFI® indexes weight stocks according to fundamental
economic factors. We believe this is a more intelligent weighting method than
market-cap weighting. Furthermore, our Fundamental Index ETFs are based on
four factors — sales, cash flow, book value and dividends — which we believe is
a more balanced, intelligent approach than weighting stocks according to just
one fundamental measure.
We also have a wide range of ETFs that target narrow slices of the market
(Intelligent Access) — from niche industries to specific world regions.
For investors who are interested in these niches, we believe ETFs — which
invest in multiple companies within a market sector — may offer a more
intelligent investment approach than stock picking.
General Risk Information
There are risks involved with investing in ETFs, including possible loss of money.
Index-based ETFs are not actively managed and are subject to risks similar to
those of stocks, including those regarding short selling and margin maintenance

requirements. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. The Fund's return may
not match the return of the Underlying Index.
There is no assurance that the strategies or funds listed in this material will
achieve their investment objectives. Investments focused in a particular
industry are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market
volatility, than more diversified investments.
The information in this presentation is provided for informational purposes only

Important Risk Information
Low Volatility: Volatility is a statistical measurement of the magnitude of up
and down asset price fluctuations over time. There can be no guarantee the
Fund will provide low volatility.
High Dividend Risk Information: Securities that pay high dividends as a
group can fall out of favor with the market, causing such companies to
underperform companies that do not pay high dividends.
High Yield/Quality Risk Information: High-yield securities have additional
risks, including interest-rate changes, decreased market liquidity and a larger
amount of outstanding debt than investment-grade securities.
BuyBack Risk Information: BuyBack strategies are characterized by
companies that consistently repurchase their own outstanding shares of
common stock. Common stock risk is the financial risk that the value of an
individual company's stock may fall as a result of factors directly relating to that
company, such as decisions made by its management or lower demand for the
company's products or services. Common stocks may decline significantly in
price over short or extended periods of time.

Sector & Industry Risk Information: Investments focused in a particular
industry are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market
volatility than more diversified investments.
International Risk Information: The risks of investing in securities of foreign
issuers, including emerging market issuers, can include fluctuations in foreign
currencies, political and economic instability, and foreign taxation issues.
Fundamentals Weighted Fixed Income Risk: Fixed-income securities, such
as notes and bonds, carry interest rate and credit risk. Interest rate risk refers
to the risk that bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise and vice versa.
Credit risk is the risk of loss on an investment due to the deterioration of an
issuer’s financial health.
