EXAMPLE
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with
the cost of investing in other funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then
redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Funds operating expenses remain the same. The Example does not take into account brokerage commissions
that you pay when purchasing or selling shares of the Fund. If the commissions were included in the Example, your costs would be higher. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or turns over its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction
costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Funds performance. This rate excludes the value of
portfolio securities received or delivered as a result of in-kind creations or redemptions of the Funds shares. During the most recent fiscal year, the Funds portfolio turnover rate was 29% of the average value of its portfolio. However,
the Funds portfolio turnover rate is calculated without regard to cash instruments, derivatives, or securities received or delivered as a result of in-kind creations and redemptions of the Funds shares. If such instruments where
included, the Funds portfolio turnover rate might be significantly higher.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The Fund uses a passive management strategy, known as replication, to track the performance of the Underlying Index.
Replication refers to investing in substantially all of the securities in the Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Underlying Index. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 90% of its net
assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in the equity securities (and derivatives thereof) included in the Underlying Index. The Funds Advisor expects that, over time, if the Fund has sufficient assets, the correlation between the
Funds performance and that of the Underlying Index, before fees and expenses, will be 95% or better. A figure of 100% would indicate perfect correlation.
Although the Advisor intends to use a replication strategy, the Fund may hold up to 10% of its assets in securities not included in the Underlying Index.
The Underlying Index is an unmanaged equal weighted version of the S&P 500 Information Technology
Index that consists of the common stocks of the following industries: internet equipment, computers and peripherals, electronic equipment, office electronics and instruments, semiconductor equipment and products, diversified telecommunication
services, and wireless telecommunication services that comprise the Information Technology sector of the S&P 500 Index. As of December 31, 2011, the Underlying Index included companies with a capitalization range of $1.8 billion to $376.4
billion. In general, the equal weighting provided by the Underlying Index provides equal representation for all securities at the Underlying Indexs rebalance interval(s), thereby providing broader exposure to the majority of securities in the
Underlying Index than typically may be found in the Underlying Indexs market capitalization weighted counterpart. As long as the Fund invests at least 90% of its total assets in securities included in the Underlying Index, the Fund may invest
its other assets in futures contracts, options on futures contracts, options, and swaps related to the Underlying Index, as well as cash and cash equivalents. Certain of the Funds derivative investments may be traded in the over-the-counter
(OTC) market. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund may hold U.S. Government securities or cash equivalents to collateralize its derivative positions. In an effort to make sure the Fund is fully invested on a day-to-day basis, the Fund may
conduct any necessary trading activity at or just prior to the close of the U.S. financial markets. To the extent the Underlying Index is concentrated in a particular industry the Fund will necessarily be concentrated in that industry. The Fund is
non-diversified and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its net assets in a particular issuer in comparison to a diversified fund.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
As with all exchange-traded
funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that his or her investment could lose money. In addition to this risk, the Fund is subject to a number of additional risks that may affect the value of its shares, including:
Early Closing Risk
An unanticipated early closing of the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the Exchange) may result in a shareholders
inability to buy or sell shares of the Fund on that day.
Liquidity Risk
In certain circumstances, it may be difficult for
the Fund to purchase and sell particular investments within a reasonable time at a fair price. In addition, the ability of the Fund to assign an accurate daily value to certain investments may be difficult, and the Advisor may be required to fair
value the investments.
Market Risk
The Funds investments in securities and derivatives, in general, are subject to
market risks that may cause their price, and therefore the Funds value, to fluctuate over time.
Non-Diversification Risk
The Fund is considered non-diversified and can invest a greater portion of its assets in securities of individual issuers than a diversified fund. As a result, changes in the market value of a single security could cause greater fluctuations
in the value of Fund shares than would occur in a diversified fund.
OTC Trading Risk
Certain of the derivatives in which
the Fund may invest may be traded (and privately negotiated) in the OTC market. While the OTC derivatives market is the primary trading venue for many derivatives, it is largely unregulated. As a result, and similar to other privately negotiated
contracts, the Fund is subject to counterparty credit risk with respect to such derivative contracts.
Passive Investment Risk
The Fund is not actively managed and the Advisor does not attempt to take defensive positions in declining markets. Therefore, the Fund may be subject to greater losses in a declining market than a fund that is actively managed.
Technology Sector Concentration Risk
To the extent that the Funds investments are concentrated in the technology sector, the
Fund is subject to the risk that the securities of such issuers will underperform the market as a whole due to legislative or regulatory changes, adverse market conditions and/or increased competition affecting that economic sector. The prices of
the securities of technology sector companies also may fluctuate widely in response to such events.
Tracking Error Risk
The Advisor may not be able to cause the Funds performance to match or correlate to that of the Underlying Index, either on a daily or aggregate basis. Factors such as Fund expenses, imperfect correlation between the Funds investments
and those of the Underlying Index, rounding of share prices, changes to the composition of the Underlying Index, regulatory policies, and high portfolio turnover rate all contribute to tracking error. Tracking error may cause the Funds
performance to be less than you expect.
Trading Halt Risk
Secondary market trading in Fund shares may be halted by the
Exchange because of market conditions or other reasons. If a trading halt occurs, a shareholder may temporarily be unable to purchase or sell shares of the Fund.
Trading Risk
Shares may trade below their net asset value (NAV). The NAV of shares will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Funds holdings. In addition,
although the Funds shares are currently listed on the Exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for shares will develop or be maintained.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
The following bar chart shows the performance of the shares of the Fund from year to year. The variability of performance over time provides an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The
following table shows the performance of the shares of the Fund as an average over different periods of time in comparison to the performance of a broad-based market index. The figures in the bar chart and table assume the reinvestment of dividends
and capital gains distributions. Of course, this past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future.
Updated performance information is available on the Funds website at www.rydex-sgi.com or by calling Rydex | SGI Client Services at 800-820-0888.

PURCHASE AND SALE OF FUND SHARES
Shares may be purchased and redeemed from the Fund only in Creation Units of 50,000 shares, or multiples thereof. As a practical matter, only institutions and large investors, such as
market makers or other large broker-dealers, purchase or redeem Creation Units. Most investors will buy and sell shares of the Fund on the Exchange. Individual shares can be bought and sold throughout the trading day like other publicly traded
securities through a broker-dealer on the Exchange. These transactions do not involve the Fund. The price of an individual Fund share is based on market prices, which may be different from its NAV. As a result, the Funds shares may trade at a
price greater than the NAV (at a premium) or less than the NAV (at a discount). Most investors will incur customary brokerage commissions and charges when buying or selling shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer on the Exchange.
TAX INFORMATION
Fund distributions are
generally taxable as ordinary income or capital gains (or a combination of both), unless your investment is in an IRA or other tax-advantaged retirement account.
PAYMENTS TO BROKER-DEALERS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES
If you purchase Fund shares
through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing
the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your sales person to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your sales person or visit your financial intermediarys website for more information.
