5 Important Disclosures & Definitions An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus which contain this and other information call or visit Read the prospectus carefully before investing. Cohen & Steers Global Realty ETF Shares are not individually redeemable. Investors buy and sell shares of the Cohen & Steers Global Realty ETF on a secondary market. Only market makers or authorized participants may trade directly with the Fund, typically in blocks of 50,000 shares. There are risks involved with investing in ETFs including the loss of money. Additional information regarding the risks of this investment is available in the prospectus. The Cohen & Steers Global Realty ETF is a new product with a limited operating history. The Fund is subject to the additional risks associated with concentrating its investments in companies in the market sector. Diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses. The Fund s investments in non-u.s. issuers may involve unique risks compared to investing in securities of U.S. issuers, including, among others, greater market volatility than U.S. securities and less complete financial information than for U.S. issuers. In addition, adverse political, economic or social developments could undermine the value of the Fund s investments or prevent the Fund from realizing the full value of its investments. Financial reporting standards for companies based in foreign markets differ from those in the United States. Finally, the value of the currency of the country in which the Fund has invested could decline relative to the value of the U.S. dollar, which may affect the value of the investment to U.S. investors. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. Investing in emerging markets accentuates these risks. The S-Network Emerging Sector Dividend Dogs Index (Ticker: EDOGX) is a portfolio of stocks derived from a universe of mainly large capitalization stocks domiciled in emerging markets (the S-Network Emerging Markets Index SNEMX ). The EDOGX methodology selects the five stocks in each of the ten GICS sectors that make up the universe which offer the highest dividend yields as of the last trading day of November. The fifty stocks that are selected for inclusion in the portfolio are equally weighted. The universe includes stocks whose domicile and primary exchange listings are in countries identified by the World Bank as Upper Middle Income (certain lower middle income countries are also included, as well as stocks traded on the Taiwan Stock Exchange despite non-recognition by the World Bank). The selection criteria for the universe, in addition to the aforementioned country qualifications, also include requirements for sector inclusion, primary exchange listing, minimum market capitalization, share price, average daily trading volume and other factors. MSCI EM TR Net Index (Ticker: MXEF) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets.
