The S&P 500 Index, as adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends, is an unmanaged index of 500 stocks and sets forth the performance of a broad-based stock market index. The Barclays U.S. 20+ Year Treasury Bond Index is an unmanaged index of U.S. Treasury securities that have a remaining maturity of at least 20 years. The index measures the performance of U.S. Treasury securities that have a remaining maturity of at least 20 years.

The ABR Dynamic Blend Treasury and Equity Index℠ ("Index") is based on a methodology designed by ABR Dynamic Funds, LLC and is Powered by Wilshire. Wilshire calculates and distributes the Index based on the third-party supplied methodology. Wilshire makes no representations about the intended purpose or the methodology used to construct the Index. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Exposure to an asset class represented by an index may be available through investable instruments derived from that index. Wilshire makes no representations regarding the advisability of investing in investment products based on the Index, which is not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by Wilshire. Index returns do not reflect payment of certain sales charges or fees an investor may pay to purchase the securities underlying the Index or investment vehicles intended to track the performance of the Index. The imposition of these fees and charges would cause actual performance of the securities/vehicles to be lower than the Index performance shown. Inclusion of a company in the Index does not in any way reflect an opinion of Wilshire on the investment merits of the company.

The performance of the Index shown is hypothetical, does not reflect actual trading and does not reflect the deduction of any advisory fees, brokerage or other commissions and other expenses that a subscriber to the Index will bear. The performance of the Index and other indices also reflects the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Past performance is not indicative of future results and it is possiblse that investing in accordance with the Index could lead to losses in your investment.

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.

PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION IN CONNECTION WITH ACCOUNTS OF QUALIFIED ELIGIBLE PERSONS, THIS BROCHURE OR ACCOUNT DOCUMENT IS NOT REQUIRED TO BE, AND HAS NOT BEEN, FILED WITH THE COMMISSION. THE COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION DOES NOT PASS UPON THE MERITS OF PARTICIPATING IN A TRADING PROGRAM OR UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF COMMODITY TRADING ADVISOR DISCLOSURE. CONSEQUENTLY, THE COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION HAS NOT REVIEWED OR APPROVED THIS BROCHURE.
