Prospectus carefully before investing.
The Fund is not suitable for all investors. There are risks
involved with investing in ETFs including the loss of money. 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. The Fund’s investments will be
concentrated in the uranium industry. As a result, the Fund will be
sensitive to changes in, and its performance will depend to a
greater extent on, the overall condition of the uranium industry.
Also, uranium companies may be significantly subject to the effects
of competitive pressures in the uranium business and the price of
uranium. The price of uranium may be affected by changes in
inflation rates, interest rates, monetary policy, economic
conditions and political stability. The price of uranium may
fluctuate substantially over short periods of time, therefore the
Fund’s share price may be more volatile than other types of
investments. In addition, they may also be significantly affected
by import controls, worldwide competition, liability for
environmental damage, depletion of resources, mandated expenditures
for safety and pollution control devices, political and economic
conditions in uranium producing and consuming countries, and
uranium production levels and costs of production. Demand for
nuclear energy may face considerable risk as a result of, among
other risks, incidents and accidents, breaches of security,
ill-intentioned acts of terrorism, air crashes, natural disasters,
equipment malfunctions or mishandling in storage, handling,
transportation, treatment or conditioning of substances and nuclear
materials.
Shares are not individually redeemable. Investors buy
and sell shares of the Sprott Uranium Miners ETF on a secondary
market. Only market makers or “authorized participants” may trade
directly with the Fund, typically in blocks of 50,000
shares.
Funds that emphasize investments in small/mid-capitalization
companies will generally experience greater price volatility. Funds
investing in foreign and emerging markets will also generally
experience greater price volatility. Diversification does not
eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses. ETFs are
considered to have continuous liquidity because they allow for an
individual to trade throughout the day. 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 annual fund operating expenses, affect
the Fund’s performance.
