Important Risks and Other Considerations This information does not represent an offer to sell securities of funds and it is not soliciting an offer to buy securities of the funds. There can be no assurance that the funds will achieve their investment objectives. An investment in the various Claymore ETFs is subject to certain risks and other considerations. Such risks and considerations include, but are not limited to: Investment Risk (All): An investment in the funds is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount that you invest. Equity Risk (All): The risk that the value of the securities held by the funds will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the issuers of securities held by the Fund participate, or factors relating to specific companies in which the funds invests. Foreign Investment Risk (All): The fund's investments in non-U.S. issuers may involve unique risks compared to investing in securities of U.S. issuers, including, among others, greater market volatility than U.S. securities and less complete financial information than for U.S. issuers. The fund's investments in foreign securities may involve higher costs than investments in U.S. securities, including higher transaction and custody costs as well as the imposition of additional taxes by foreign governments. The fund's foreign investments may also involve risks associated with the level of currency exchange rates, less complete financial information about the issuers, less market liquidity, more market volatility and political instability. Future political and economic developments, the possible imposition of withholding taxes on dividend income, the possible seizure or nationalization of foreign holdings, the possible establishment of exchange controls or freezes on the convertibility of currency, or the adoption of other governmental restrictions might adversely affect the fund's investments in foreign securities. Additionally, foreign issuers may be subject to less stringent regulation, and to different accounting, auditing and recordkeeping requirements. In addition, the underlying issuers of certain depositary receipts, particularly unsponsored or unregistered depositary receipts, are under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications to the holders of such receipts, or to pass through to them any voting rights with respect to the deposited securities. Non-Correlation Risk (All): The fund's return may not match the return of the Index for a number of reasons. For example, the Fund incurs a number of operating expenses not applicable to the Index, and incurs costs in buying and selling securities, especially when rebalancing the fund�s securities holdings to reflect changes in the composition of the Index. Small and Medium-Sized Company Risk (BST, CZG): Investing in securities of small and medium-sized companies involves greater risk than is customarily associated with investing in more established companies. These companies' stocks may be more volatile and less liquid than those of more established companies. These stocks may have returns that vary, sometimes significantly, from the overall stock market. Replication Management Index (All): Unlike many investment companies, the funds are not "actively" managed. Therefore, it would not necessarily sell a stock because the stock's issuer was in financial trouble unless that stock is removed from the Index. Issuer-Specific Changes (All): The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. The value of securities of smaller issuers can be more volatile than that of larger issuers. Non-Diversified Fund Risk (All):The Fund is considered 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. Patent Risk (OTR): The companies in which the Claymore/Ocean Tomo Growth ETF invests (via the Index) can be significantly affected by patent considerations, including the termination of their patent protection for their products. Small Company Risk (BES): Investing in securities of small companies involves greater risk than is customarily associated with investing in more established companies. These companies� stocks may be more volatile and less liquid than those of more established companies. These stocks may have returns that vary, sometimes significantly, from the overall stock market. Medium Sized Company Risk (BMV, OTR, CZA): Investing in securities of medium sized companies involves greater risk than is customarily associated with investing in more established companies. These companies� stocks may be more volatile and less liquid than those of more established companies. These stocks may have returns that vary, sometimes significantly, from the overall stock market.
