This example is for illustrative purposes only.

The intraday NAV for an ETF is typically calculated and published by a third party under a separate symbol every 15 seconds throughout the trading day over the Consolidated Tape based on the current value of the securities specified for creation and redemption plus any estimated cash amounts associated with the creation unit, all on a per-ETF share basis. The intraday NAV is designed to give investors a sense of the relationship between a basket of securities that are representative of those held in the ETF’s portfolio and the share price of the ETF on an intraday basis.

Liquidity of the underlying holdings is a significant factor in the liquidity of an ETF.

Liquidity of underlying: Shares trade $7.5b per day

$10m / $7.5b

= 0.13% of ADV

Liquidity of underlying: Shares trade $7.5b per day

$10m / $7.5b

= 0.13% of ADV

Buy $10m in FNX (First Trust Mid Cap AlphaDEX ETF)

Trader’s perspective:“Stock trades $467k per day”

$10m / $467k

= 2,140% of ADV

Trader’s perspective:“Stock trades $467k per day”

$10m / $467k

= 2,140% of ADV

This example is for illustrative purposes only. ADV statistics as of 1/7/2010.
