Incorporation: The ETF is an open-ended mutual fund trust established under the laws of Ontario pursuant to an amended and restated master declaration of trust as of January 11, 2008.

Manager and Trustee: BetaPro Management Inc.

Investment Manager: JovInvestment Management Inc.

Portfolio Manager: ProShare Advisors LLC

Fiscal Year End: December 31

Nature of Business: The ETF seeks daily investment results, before fees, expenses, distributions, brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, that endeavour to correspond to two times (200%) the daily performance of the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index®.

If the ETF is successful in meeting its investment objective, its net asset value should gain approximately twice as much, on a percentage basis, as the S&P TSX Global Mining Index® when the index rises on a given day. Conversely, the ETF’s net asset value should lose approximately twice as much, on a percentage basis, as the index when the index declines on a given day.

Transfer Agent & Registrar: Computershare Investor Services Inc. at its principal office in Toronto.

Distributions and Automatic Reinvestment: The ETF will distribute sufficient net income (including, if applicable, net capital gains) so that the ETF will not be liable for income tax in any given year. The Manager intends, but is under no obligation, to make such distributions, usually on an annual basis. All distributions will be automatically reinvested on behalf of each Unitholder in additional Units of the ETF.

Distributions of an ETF are expected to consist primarily of returns of capital and capital gains for income tax purposes. These distributions are intended to benefit Unitholders since returns of capital are generally not subject to tax (but reduce the adjusted cost base of the Units) and distributions of capital gains will generally be taxed at a lower rate than distributions of interest and other ordinary income.

As long as the Initial Forward Documents are in effect, the level of distributions paid by an ETF to its Unitholders will depend upon payments received by the ETF thereunder. If the Initial Forward Documents are terminated, the level of distributions paid by an ETF to its Unitholders will depend on the replacement hedging strategy adopted by the ETF.

Initial Issuance of Units: Pursuant to the terms of the Prospectus, Units will be issued and sold on a continuous basis and there will be no maximum number of Units that may be issued. Units sold in connection with the initial public offering for the ETF will amount to 1,002,500 Units at a price of $20.00 per Unit.
