INVESTMENT INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT RISK. Fund does not invest directly in the underlying asset. As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in the Fund. An investor should carefully consider a Fund's investment objective, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. A Fund's prospectus and summary prospectus contain this and other information about Themes ETFs. To obtain a Fund's prospectus and summary prospectus call 886-584-3637. A Fund's prospectus and summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing. Newly launched Funds have risks associated with a limited operating history. Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day's return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day's returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from 200% of the return of the underlying asset over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the underlying asset's performance is flat over time, and because of daily rebalancing, the underlying asset's volatility, and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the underlying asset's performance increases over a period longer than a single day. The Fund is not suitable for all investors. The Fund is designed to be utilized only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking daily leveraged (2X) investment results, understand the risks associated with the use of leverage and are willing to monitor their portfolios frequently. The Fund is not intended to be used by, and is not appropriate for, investors who do not intend to actively monitor and manage their portfolios. For periods longer than a single day, the Fund will lose money if the underlying asset's performance is flat, and it is possible that the Fund will lose money even if the underlying asset's performance increases over a period longer than a single day. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"), the Adviser has agreed to pay all expenses of the Fund, except for the fee paid to the Adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, interest charges on any borrowings, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, extraordinary expenses, and distribution (12b-1) fees and expenses. Past performance does not guarantee future results. INVESTMENT RISKS: Investing in the Fund involves a high degree of risk. As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment. Investment in leveraged products may be subject to higher volatility. The Fund does not directly invest in the underlying asset. An investment in the Fund involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The Fund is non-diversified and includes risks associated with concentrating its investments in a particular industry, sector, or geographic region, which can result in increased volatility. The use of derivatives such as futures contracts and swaps is subject to market risks that may cause their price to fluctuate over time. Risks of the Fund include effects of Compounding and Market Volatility Risk, Market Risk, Counterparty Risk, Rebalancing Risk, Intraday Investment Risk, Daily Index Correlation Risk, Other Investment Companies (including ETFs) Risk, and risks specific to the underlying asset and the industries to which it is exposed. These and other risks can be found in the prospectus. For periods longer than a single day, the Fund will lose money if MU, FIX, FLEX, or STM have flat performance, and it is possible that the Fund will lose money even if MU, FIX, FLEX, or STM increase over a period longer than a single day. Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. The market price returns are based on the official closing price of an ETF share or, if the official closing price isn't available, the midpoint between the national best bid and national best offer (NBBO) as of the time the ETF calculates current NAV per share, and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. NAVs are calculated using prices as of 4:00 PM Eastern Time. Indices are unmanaged and do not include the effect of fees, expenses, or sales charges. One cannot invest directly in an index. This information is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy shares of any Fund to any person in any jurisdiction in which an offer, solicitation, purchase or sale would be unlawful under the securities laws of such jurisdiction.
