The Outcome Period Values are shown both gross and net of the Fund's annual management fee. The outcome values may only be realized for an investor who holds units for the outcome period shown.

^ Commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with investing in the funds. Please read the prospectus before investing. The indicated rate of return shown is the return since the start of the outcome period including changes in unit value and do not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or optional charges or income taxes payable by any securityholder that would have reduced returns. The funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently, and past performance may not be repeated.

^^ The gross calculated outcome values are before fees, expenses, taxes and the effects of currency hedging. The net calculated outcome values include deduction of the Fund's annual management fee but do not include other fees, expenses, taxes, and the effect of currency hedging. As a result of the past and future costs, risks, and other performance impacts (including the cap and buffer applicable to the First Trust ETF) of the currency hedging strategy, some deviations from the price return of the Underlying ETF are expected to occur and the total returns of the First Trust ETF may be materially impacted. Such impacts may increase or decrease a unit holder's return and ability to achieve the full cap and buffer compared to the values shown.
