Each Short or Ultra ProShares ETF seeks a return that is either 300%, 200%, -100%, -200%, or -300% of the return of an index or other benchmark (target) for a single day. Due to the compounding of daily returns, Short or Ultra ProShares returns over periods other than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the target return for the same period. Investors should monitor their ProShares holdings consistent with their strategies, as frequently as daily. For more on correlation, leverage and other risks, please read the prospectus. Investing involves substantial risk, including loss of principal. ProShares are non-diversified and entail certain risks, including aggressive investment techniques (futures contracts, options, forward contracts, swap agreements and similar instruments), imperfect benchmark correlation, leverage and market price variance. These risks may pose risks different from, or greater than, those associated with a direct investment in the securities underlying the funds benchmarks, can increase volatility, and may dramatically decrease performance. There is no guarantee that any ProShares ETF will achieve its investment objective. ProShares are not suitable for all investors.
ProShares Commodity and Currency ETFs are not regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Investing in these ETFs involves significant risks. Investors could lose all or substantially all of their investment. ProShares Trust II (the issuer) has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at sec.gov. Alternatively, the issuer will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling toll-free 866-PRO-5125, or visit proshares.com, or you may request a copy from any underwriter or other dealer participating in the offering. These funds generate a K-1 tax form.
Carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of ProShares before investing. This and other information can be found in their summary and full prospectus(es). Read them carefully before investing. Obtain them from your financial adviser or broker/dealer representative or by visiting proshares.com. ProShares registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 are distributed by SEI Investments Distribution Co. which is not affiliated with ProFunds Group or its affiliates. 2010-1741
