It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Exposure to an asset class or trading strategy or other category represen ted by an index is only available through third party investable
instruments (if any) based on that index.

adviser or fiduciary and MSCI makes no representation regarding the advisability of investing in any Index Linked Investments.

Index returns do notreflect payment of any sales charges or fees an investor may pay to purchase the securities underlying the index or Index Linked Investments. The imposition of these fees and charges
would cause the performance of an Index Linked Investment to be different than the MSCI index performance.

performance results and actual results subsequently achieved by any investment strategy.
