The Premium/Discount chart shows the difference between the daily market price of the
Fund’s shares and the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). The daily market price is
calculated using the mid-point between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the
listing exchange, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated (usually 4:00 pm
Eastern time). The vertical axis of the chart shows the premium or discount of the
Mid-Point price as a percentage of the NAV. The horizontal axis shows the number of
trading days covered by the chart, and each bar in the chart demonstrates how many days
the Fund traded within the given premium/discount range. The data presented in the chart
and table above represent past performance and cannot be used to predict future results.

The principal risks of investing in LIFGG include: Equity Securities
Risk. The value of the equity securities the Fund holds may fall due to
general market and economic conditions. Foreign Securities
Risk. Investments in the securities of foreign issuers involve risks beyond
those associated with investments in U.S. securities. Health Care Sector
Risk. The health care sector may be adversely affected by government
regulations and government health care programs, restrictions on government
reimbursements for medical expenses, increases or decreases in the cost of medical
products and services and product liability claims, among other factors. Many health
care companies are heavily dependent on patent protection and intellectual property
rights and the expiration of a patent may adversely affect their
profitability. Biotechnology Company Risk. A biotechnology company’s
valuation can often be based largely on the potential or actual performance of a limited
number of products and can accordingly be greatly affected if one of its products
proves, among other things, unsafe, ineffective or unprofitable. Biotechnology companies
are subject to regulation by, and the restrictions of, the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, state and local governments,
and foreign regulatory authorities. Pharmaceutical Company Risk.
Companies in the pharmaceutical industry can be significantly affected by,
among other things, government approval of products and services, government regulation
and reimbursement rates, product liability claims, patent expirations and protection and
intense competition. Detailed information regarding the specific risks of LIFGG can be
found in the ETF’s prospectus. Additional risks of investing in LIFGG include Foreign
Securities Risk, Information Technology Sector Risk, equity, market, management and
non-diversification risks, as well as fluctuations in market value and NAV. An
investment in an ETF is subject to risks and you can lose money on your investment in an
ETF. There can be no assurance that the ETF will achieve its investment objective. The
ETF’s portfolio is more volatile than broad market averages. Shares of LIFGG are bought
and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the ETF. ETF
shares may only be redeemed directly with the ETF at NAV by Authorized Participants, in
very large creation units. There can be no guarantee that an active trading market for
ETF shares will develop or be maintained, or that their listing will continue or remain
unchanged. Buying or selling ETF shares on an exchange may require the payment of
brokerage commissions and frequent trading may incur brokerage costs that detract
significantly from investment returns.
The Adviser expects to invest at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in Genomics Revolution
Companies. However, certain of these companies do not currently derive a substantial
portion of their current revenues from genomic-focused businesses and there is no
assurance that any company will do so in the future, which may adversely affect the
ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objective.
