Risk considerations

Please consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Fund carefully before investing. A prospectus with this and other information about the Fund is available at www.sourceETF.com or by calling 844-3SOURCE (844-3768723). The prospectus should be read carefully before investing.

The Source EURO STOXX 50 ETF (the "Fund") is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a non-diversified, management investment company, pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940. An investment in the Fund is subject to risk, including the loss of principal amount invested. There is no guarantee the Fund will achieve its investment objective. The Fund's shares may be more volatile than the performance of a broadly diversified portfolio. The Fund is not by itself a complete or balanced investment program.

Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not net asset value (NAV)) and can be acquired or redeemed directly from a fund at NAV in Creation Units only. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Market returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 p.m. eastern time (when NAV is normally determined for most ETFs) and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.

Market forces may result in shares trading at a significant premium or discount to NAV. Although the shares are currently listed on an exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the shares will develop or be maintained.

The Fund's performance is expected to be closely tied to social, political, and economic conditions within Europe and to be more volatile than the performance of more geographically diversified funds. An investment in European securities can be adversely affected by a variety of factors, among which are: restrictions on inflation rates, deficits, interest rates, debt levels and fiscal and monetary controls imposed by the European Union or European Monetary Union; historically high unemployment and significant debt problems in certain European nations; recently volatility in European financial markets due to concerns about economic downturns or rising government debt levels. Currently, a significant portion of the Index is allocated to securities of companies in France, Germany and Spain.

Recent events have adversely affected the exchange rate of the euro and may continue to significantly affect every country in Europe, including countries that do not use the euro. Changes in currency exchange rates and the relative value of non-U.S. currencies will affect the value of the Fund's investment and the value of your Fund Shares. Because the Fund's NAV is determined in U.S. dollars, the Funds NAV could decline if the currency of the non-U.S. market in which the Fund invests depreciates against the U.S. dollar, even if the value of the Fund's holdings, measured in the foreign currency, increases.
