The Credit Suisse 130/30 Large Cap Index is designed to replicate an investment strategy that establishes either long or short positions in certain of the 500 largest U.S. market cap equities by applying a rulesbased ranking and weighting methodology.

The index then identifies the top ten stocks in each sector that have the highest correlation of relative performance compared with 500 of the largest listed U.S. stocks to changes in the 10-year yields. The DJ Brookfield Global Infrastructure Composite Index consists of companies domiciled globally that qualify as "pure-play" infrastructure companies companies whose primary business is the ownership and operation of infrastructure assets, activities that generally generate long-term stable cash flows. 6

7 The ProShares Long Online/Short Stores Index combines two specialized retail indexes into one. It is 100% long the ProShares Online Retail Index, which tracks retailers that primarily sell online or through other non-store channels, and 50% short the Solactive-ProShares Bricks and Mortar Retail Store Index that brings together traditional in-store retailers. To be included in the Solactive-ProShares Bricks and Mortar Retail Store Index, a retailer must be characterized as receiving at least 50% of its revenue from retail operations; receive 75% or more of its retail revenues from in-store sales; and be a U.S. company.

The MSCI World Index represents large- and mid-cap securities across developed markets countries. The Citi Corporate Investment Grade (Treasury Rate-Hedged) Index is comprised of (a) long positions in USD-denominated investment grade corporate bonds issued by both U.S. and foreign domiciled companies; and (b) short positions in U.S. Treasury notes or bonds of, in aggregate, approximate equivalent duration to the investment grade bonds. In entering these positions, the index seeks to achieve an overall effective duration of zero. The Bloomberg Barclays US Investment Grade Corporate Bond Index (Unhedged) measures the investment grade, fixed-rate, taxable corporate bond market. It includes USD-denominated securities publicly issued by US and non-us industrial, utility and financial issuers. The Citi High Yield (Treasury Rate-Hedged) Index is comprised of (a) long positions in USD-denominated high yield corporate bonds and (b) short positions in U.S. Treasury notes or bonds of, in aggregate, approximate equivalent duration.

Securites are classified as high yield if the middle rating of Moody s, Fitch, and S&P is Ba1/BB+/BB+ or below. Bonds from issuers with an emerging markets country of risk, based on the indices EM country definition, are excluded. The DBIQ Short Duration Emerging Market Bond Index SM is composed of a diversified portfolio of USD-denominated emerging markets bonds that have less than five years remaining to maturity that are issued by emerging markets sovereign governments, non-sovereign government agencies and entities, and corporations with significant government ownership. The LPX Direct Listed Private Equity Index consists of up to 30 qualifying listed private equity companies. A listed private equity company is an eligible candidate for the index if its direct private equity investments, as well as cash and cash equivalent positions and post-initial Public Offering listed investments, represent more than 80% of the total assets of the company. The MSCI Small Cap World represents small cap securities across developed market countries. The Merrill Lynch Factor Model Exchange Series seeks to provide the risk and return characteristics of the hedge fund asset class by targeting a high correlation to the HFRI Fund Weighted Composite Index (HFRI). The Goldman Sachs Absolute Return Tracker Index is a benchmark index that seeks to replicate the investment returns of hedge fund betas (i.e., that portion of the returns of hedge funds, as a broad asset class, that results from market exposure rather than manager skill). The S&P Strategic Futures Index is a long/short, rules-based index that seeks to capture economic benefits from both rising and declining trends in futures prices. The Morningstar Diversified Futures Index (DFI) is a fully collateralized futures index that offers diversified exposure to global markets through highly-liquid, exchange listed futures contracts in commodities, currencies, and equities. The index contains 35 different futures positions: 20 commodities, 9 equity indexes, and 6 currencies. The S&P Merger Arbitrage Index follows a true merger arbitrage approach by taking long positions in target securities and short positions in shares of an acquirer when the deal involves an exchange of the acquirer s stock. The short positions are intended to reduce the effect that declines in the value of the acquirer s stock could have on the spread. Credit Suisse Merger Arbitrage Liquid Index seeks to gain broad exposure to the Merger Arbitrage strategy by using a pre-defined quantitative methodology in order to invest in a liquid, diversified and broadly representative set of announced merger deals. The Merger Arbitrage Liquid Index is also a factor within the Credit Suisse Event Driven Liquid Index. The Morningstar Diversified Alternatives Index SM is designed to provide diversified exposure to alternative asset classes in order to enhance risk-adjusted portfolio returns when combined with a range of traditional investments. It allocates among a comprehensive set of alternative ETFs that employ alternative and non-traditional strategies such as long/short, market neutral, managed futures, hedge fund replication, private equity, infrastructure or inflation-related investments. The index consists exclusively of ProShares ETFs. 7

8 The Morningstar Multialternative Category Average is composed of funds that use a combination of alternative strategies such as taking long and short positions in equity and debt, trading futures, or using convertible arbitrage, among others. The FTSE RAFI Hybrid Index consists of the RAFI US Equity Long/Short Index from 12/31/2010 through 2/29/2016, and the FTSE RAFI US 1000 Long/Short Total Return Index going forward. The IQ Hedge Market Neutral Index seeks to replicate the risk-adjusted return characteristics of the collective hedge funds using a market neutral hedge fund investment style. Market Neutral hedge funds typically invest in both long and short positions in asset classes while minimizing exposure to systematic risk. These strategies seek to have a zero beta (or market ) exposure to one or more systematic risk factors including the overall market (as represented by the S&P 500 Index), economic sectors or industries, market cap, region and country. Market neutral strategies that effectively neutralize the market exposure are not impacted by directional moves in the market.
