"Thanks to this commission-free program, more investors can obtain low-cost entry to our Strategic Beta ETFs, and potentially enhance their portfolios with characteristics of both active management and passive indexing."

Direxion Strategic Beta ETFs seek to incorporate what we believe are the best features of passive and active strategies. These funds represent a new approach geared toward achieving specific objectives.

E*TRADE enables investors to access a large selection of ETFs without having to pay trading commissions. E*TRADE recently announced that it has surpassed 250 commission-free ETFs spanning dozens of Morningstar categories.

About the E*TRADE Commission-Free ETF Program:

You can buy and sell the exchange-traded funds (ETFs) available through the E*TRADE Securities Commission-Free ETF Program without paying brokerage commissions. For margin customers, ETFs purchased through the program are not margin eligible for 30 days from the purchase date. To discourage short-term trading, E*TRADE Securities may charge a short-term trading fee on sales of participating ETFs held for less than 30 days. The list of commission-free ETFs is subject to change at any time without notice.

E*TRADE Securities LLC (ETS) has contracted with certain ETF companies to receive compensation in connection with the purchase of ETFs offered commission-free through ETS. This additional compensation is paid by an affiliate of the ETF. The compensation ETS receives as a result of these relationships is paid based on initial setup fees, and a percentage of invested assets ranging from 0 to 0.15% per annum, depending on the fund company.
