Disclaimer

Commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with investing in Harvest Exchange Traded Funds managed by Harvest Portfolios Group Inc. (the “Funds” or a “Fund”). Please read the relevant prospectus before investing. The Funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently, and past performance may not be repeated. Tax investment and all other decisions should be made with guidance from a qualified professional.

The current yield represents an annualized amount. It is comprised of 12 unchanged monthly distributions (using the most recent month’s distribution figure multiplied by 12) divided by the closing market price of the Fund at the end of a given day or month. The current yield does not represent historical returns of the ETF but represents the distribution an investor would receive if the most recent distribution stayed the same going forward.

Distributions are paid to you in cash unless you request, pursuant to your participation in a distribution reinvestment plan, that they be reinvested into available Class units of the Fund. If a Fund earns less than the amounts distributed, the difference is a return of capital.

Certain statements included in this communication constitute forward-looking statements (“FLS”, including, but not limited to, those identified by the expressions "expect", "intend", "will" and similar expressions to the extent they relate to the Funds. The FLS are not historical facts but reflect Harvest’s and the portfolio manager of the Funds current expectations regarding future results or events. These FLS are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations. Although Harvest and the portfolio manager of the Funds believe that the assumptions inherent in the FLS are reasonable, FLS are not guarantees of future performance and, accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements due to the inherent uncertainty therein. The Funds, Harvest and the portfolio manager of the Funds undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any FLS or information whether as a result of new information, future events or other such factors which affect this information, except as required by law.
