| 1 Beta is a measure of relative risk and the slope of regression. |
| 2 Since ordinary brokerage commissions apply for each buy and sell transaction, frequent trading activity may increase the cost of ETFs. |
| 3 ETFs disclose their full portfolio holdings daily. |
| 4 Invesco PowerShares does not offer tax advice. Please consult your tax advisor regarding your own personal tax situation. |
| There are risks involved with investing in ETFs including possible loss of money. The Fund is not actively managed. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. |
| Each Fund contains securities from its underlying sector-specific index. Companies engaged in the consumer discretionary, consumer staples, energy, financial services, healthcare, industrials, information technology, basic materials, utilities and telecommunication services sectors are subject to greater risks, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility, than more diversified investments. |
| The Funds are non-diversified and can invest a greater portion of assets in securities of individual issuers than a diversified fund. As a result, changes in the market value of a single investment could cause greater fluctuations in share price than would occur in a diversified fund. |
| Investing in securities of small capitalization companies may involve greater risk than is customarily associated with investing in large companies. |
