Investment Objective
Harvest Canadian Equity Income Leaders ETF seeks to provide Unitholders with monthly cash distributions; the opportunity for capital appreciation; and lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would otherwise be experienced by owning Equity Securities of the Canadian Equity Income Leaders Issuers directly.

The level of covered call option writing may vary based on market volatility and other factors.
