Important Risk Information

Investing in the Fund carries certain risks. Securities of robotics and automation companies, especially smaller, start-up companies tend to be more volatile securities than securities of companies that do not rely heavily on technology. Smaller sized companies may experience higher failure rates than larger companies and normally have a lower trading volume than larger companies. Rapid change to technologies that affect a company’s products could have a material adverse effect on operating results.

Robotics and automation companies may rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secret laws to establish and protect proprietary rights in their products and technologies. The Fund is subject to regulatory change and tax risks; changes to current rules could increase costs associated with an investment in the Fund. Investments in international markets present special risks including currency fluctuation, the potential for diplomatic and political instability, regulatory and liquidity risks, foreign taxations and differences in auditing and other financial standards. Emerging market securities tend to be more volatile and less liquid than securities traded in developed countries.

Please see the prospectus for all of the principal risks of investing in the Fund.
