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, 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 risk, including the possible loss of principal. ProShares entail certain risks, in some or all cases, aggressive investment techniques (futures contracts, options, forward contracts, swap agreements and similar instruments), correlation or inverse correlation, leverage and market price variance, all of which can increase volatility and decrease performance. Short ProShares should lose money when their benchmarks or indexes rise—a result that is opposite from traditional ETFs. ProShares are non-diversified investments. These risks can increase volatility and decrease performance. Please see the prospectus for a more complete description of these risks.

Carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of ProShares before investing. This and other information can be found in their prospectuses. Read the prospectus carefully before investing. Obtain a ProShares prospectus for commodity or currency ETFs and for all other ETFs, and seek advice from your financial adviser or broker/dealer representative. Commodity and currency ETF information must be accompanied by a prospectus. Financial professionals can call ProShares at 866.PRO.5125.
