3 Investment Strategy Overview The AdvisorShares Vice ETF (Ticker: ACT) is an actively managed ETF designed to invest in select companies conducting federally legal business per the United States government related to alcohol, cannabis and tobacco. Alcohol and tobacco have been often viewed as potentially recession-resistant areas simply because individuals take pleasure in such related activities during both good and bad economic environments. ACT s investment thesis believes that investing in select alcohol and tobacco companies can provide continued growth and long-term performance across all types of market environments. With evolving societal and regulatory landscapes, the upside potential of cannabis as a new investment avenue complements the historically resilient characteristics of alcohol and tobacco equities. ACT only invests in cannabis-related companies legal on the U.S. federal level. While many state jurisdictions legalized the possession and use of cannabis, it still remains illegal under U.S. federal law. The U.S. regulation of marijuana remains evolving and there is no assurance of continued regulatory approvals. 3 Next slide: Investment Process
4 4 Investment Process Invests primarily in U.S. exchange-listed equity securities including common and preferred stock, and American depositary receipts (ADRs). Employs a fundamental process to identify well-established companies that have shown consistency in their financial results and earnings quality, as well as attractive operating histories and established positions in their respective markets. Seeks to identify alcohol and tobacco companies that can potentially carry a competitive advantage operating within heavily regulated industries reinforced by a well-established performance history across multiple market and economic environments. Seeks to identify U.S. federally legal cannabis-related companies across various formats that may potentially provide tremendous upside potential for significant growth, especially as the market matures and evolves. On a U.S. federal legal level, cannabis-related companies can span across multiple industries including agriculture, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, real estate, retail, finance and medical applications.

8 Alcohol & Tobacco s Durable Moat Select alcohol and tobacco companies ability to maintain a competitive advantage over peers to protect their long-term profits can be attributed to: Regulatory Oversight Manufacturing & Production Distribution (Domestic & International) Branding Barriers to Entry 8 Next slide: Cannabis, A New Frontier
9 Cannabis: A New Frontier for Potential Growth U.S. federally legal cannabis-related companies can fall into numerous industries and formats including biotechnology, pharmaceutical, agriculture, real estate, retail and finance. While marijuana use and possession has been allowed under select circumstances for certain U.S. states and the District of Columbia, it remains not legal on the U.S. federal level. While societal and regulatory landscapes have evolved, the path to federal legality stands unclear. We are neither predicting nor anticipating that history could repeat itself but after the ratification of the 21 st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the alcohol industry realized significant growth with regulation and oversight. As regulations and oversight evolves, cannabis can be a potential boon to markets and the economy and generator of tax revenue via aforementioned industries and formats. The number of investable companies related to cannabis may likely continue to grow. Merger & Acquisition potential may possibly develop as the market evolves and matures. 9 Next slide: Caution Required
10 Caution Required Despite the emerging growth opportunity of cannabis, not all cannabis-related companies will succeed and some may not be legal on a U.S. federal level blindly investing in this area may have adverse effects on an investment portfolio. 4/18/2017, cnbc.com 12/19/2016, latimes.com 8/15/2017, fool.com 10 Next slide: Drivers for Security Selection
11 Drivers for Security Selection Alcohol, Cannabis, Tobacco Identifies compelling companies through portfolio manager s purview that fit within the parameters of the strategy s investment objective and thesis Strong Fundamentals Consistency in financial results and earnings quality; attractive operating histories and established positions in their respective markets Upside Potential Screens for emerging companies that may possess upside for growth 11 Next slide: Portfolio Construction
12 Portfolio Construction Investment Universe Qualifies for Screening Meets Criteria for Portfolio Management Review Portfolio Holdings (typically < 50 securities) 12 Next slide: Risk Management
13 Risk Management Certain factors may cause the portfolio manager to reduce exposure or remove a specific holding, which includes: Portfolio monitored daily Portfolio manager regularly reviews securities on a name by name basis Portfolio rebalance may happen at any time based on the manager s assessment of position sizes and tax efficiency May sell or reduce a position size when the portfolio manager believes that a security is overvalued or better investment opportunities become available 13 Next slide: The Case for ACT
14 The Case for ACT Select alcohol and tobacco companies may carry a durable moat advantage within heavily regulated industries, reinforced by an established record of performance across multiple market and economic environments. Tobacco still possesses among the highest profit margins of consumer products despite less people smoking and heavily restricted advertising. The largest alcohol and tobacco companies are among the equity market s top dividend payers, with a history of consistent growth and increasing dividends that can potentially enhance the portfolio s total return. U.S. federally legal cannabisrelated equities may present an emerging growth opportunity across multiple industries and various formats. Cannabis-related companies may also realize merger & acquisition potential as the market matures and evolves. ACT is the only ETF with this emerging investment theme, including passive strategies, that provides concentrated exposure to select companies associated with alcohol, cannabis and tobacco. 14 Next slide: How ACT Fits Within a Portfolio
15 How ACT Fits Within a Portfolio ACT can deliver an alpha-seeking complement or satellite equity holding to a broad-based equity allocation. ACT seeks direct exposure to select leaders within the alcohol and tobacco industries complemented by the potential emerging upside of U.S. federally legal cannabis-related companies.

22 Disclosure Investing involves risks including possible loss of principal. Cannabis-related companies are subject to various laws and regulations that may differ at the state/local and federal level. These laws and regulations may significantly affect a cannabis-related company s ability to secure financing, impact the market for marijuana industry sales and services, and set limitations on marijuana use, production, transportation, and storage. In addition to regulatory action, litigation initiated by private citizens or companies could have a negative impact on the financial and/or operational status of cannabis-related companies. Pronouncements from the current Administration suggest the Department of Justice ( DOJ ) may push back against states where marijuana use and possession is legal, step up the enforcement of federal marijuana laws and the prosecution of nonviolent federal drug crimes and, in the event the Rohrabacher-Farr amendment is not renewed by Congress, begin using federal funds to prevent states from implementing laws that authorize medical marijuana use, possession, distribution, and cultivation. Such actions by the DOJ could produce a chilling effect on the industry s growth and discourage banks from expanding their services to cannabis-related companies where such services are currently limited. 22
23 Disclosure Companies in the food, beverage and tobacco industry are very competitive and subject to a number of risks. Demographic and product trends, changing consumer preferences, nutritional and healthrelated concerns, competitive pricing, marketing campaigns, environmental factors, adverse changes in general economic conditions, government regulation, food inspection and processing control, consumer boycotts, risks of product tampering, product liability claims, and the availability and expense of liability insurance can affect the demand for, and success of, such companies products in the marketplace. For a full summary of the risks please see the prospectus. BEFORE INVESTING YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FUND S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, RISKS, CHARGES AND EXPENSES.
