Fund Objective
The Inverse Government Long Bond Strategy Fund seeks to provide total returns that inversely correlate to the price movements of a benchmark for
U.S.Treasury debt instruments or futures contract on a specified debt instrument.The Fund’s current benchmark is the inverse of the daily price movement
of the Long Treasury Bond. The Long Treasury Bond is the U.S.Treasury bond with the longest maturity, which is currently 30 years.The price
movement of the Long Treasury Bond is based on the daily price change of the most recently issued Long Treasury Bond.
If the Fund meets its objective, the value of the Fund’s shares will tend to increase on a daily basis when the price of the Long Treasury Bond decreases.
When the price of the Long Treasury Bond increases, however, the value of the Fund’s shares should decrease on a daily basis by an inversely proportionate
amount (e.g., if the price of the Long Treasury Bond increases by 2%, the value of the Fund’s shares should go down by 2% on that day).
Principal Investment Strategy
Unlike a traditional index fund, the Fund’s benchmark is to perform, on a daily basis, exactly opposite its benchmark, the Long Treasury Bond. As its
primary investment strategy, the Fund enters into short sales and swap transactions, and engages in futures and options transactions. On a day-to-day
basis, the Fund holds U.S. Government securities or cash equivalents to collateralize these obligations.
Under normal circumstances, the Inverse Government Long Bond Strategy Fund will invest substantially all (at least 80%) of its net assets in financial
instruments with economic characteristics that should perform opposite to fixed income securities issued by the U.S. Government. This is a non-fundamental
policy that can be changed by the Inverse Government Long Bond Strategy Fund upon 60 days’ prior notice to shareholders.
