 that the methodology used by the third-party provider to create the Index will result in a Fund achieving high, or even positive, returns. Further, there can be no guarantee that the methodology underlying the Index or the daily calculation of the Index will be free from error. It is also possible that the value of the Index or the VIX may be subject to intentional manipulation by third-party market participants.

The Ultra Fund experienced significantly higher than normal creation activity in mid-February of 2021. Each Fund potentially could experience similar creation activity in the future. A Fund experiencing significant and rapid growth could potentially experience difficulty achieving appropriate exposure in response to significant increases in Fund assets, which could cause a Fund to limit or suspend purchases of Creation Units. Any limitation or suspension of Creation Units, among other things, could cause a Fund’s Shares to trade at a premium, widen trading
