Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives and risks as well as charges and expenses of an
ARK ETF before investing. This and other information are contained in the ARK ETFs’ prospectuses, which may be
obtained by visiting www.ark-funds.com. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing. An investment
in an ARK ETF is subject to risks and you can lose money on your investment in an ARK ETF. There can be no
assurance that the ARK ETFs will achieve their investment objectives. The ARK ETFs’ portfolios are more volatile
than broad market averages. The ARK ETFs also have specific risks, which are described below. More detailed
information regarding these risks can be found in the ARK ETFs’ prospectuses.
 
The principal risks of investing in the ARK ETFs include: Equity Securities Risk. The value of the equity securities the ARK ETF holds may fall due
to general market and economic conditions. Foreign Securities Risk. Investments in the securities of foreign issuers involve risks beyond those
associated with investments in U.S. securities. Health Care Sector Risk. The Health Care Sector may be affected by government regulations and
government health care programs. Industrials Sector Risk. The industrials sector includes companies engaged in the aerospace and defense
industry, electrical engineering, machinery, and professional services. Information Technology Sector Risk. Information technology companies
face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on profit margins. Cryptocurrency Risk.
Cryptocurrency (notably, bitcoin), often referred to as ‘‘virtual currency’’ or ‘‘digital currency,’’ operates as a decentralized, peer-to-peer financial
exchange and value storage that is used like money. Some of the ARK actively managed Funds may have exposure to bitcoin, a cryptocurrency,
indirectly through an investment in the Bitcoin Investment Trust (‘‘GBTC’’), a privately offered, open-end investment vehicle. Cryptocurrency
operates without central authority or banks and is not backed by any government. Even indirectly, cryptocurrencies may experience very high
volatility and related investment vehicles like GBTC may be affected by such volatility. As a result of holding cryptocurrency, the Fund may
also trade at a significant premium to NAV. Cryptocurrency is also not legal tender. Federal, state or foreign governments may restrict the use
and exchange of cryptocurrency, and regulation in the U.S. is still developing. Cryptocurrency exchanges may stop operating or permanently
shut down due to fraud, technical glitches, hackers or malware. Detailed information regarding the specific risks of the ARK ETFs can be found
in the ARK ETFs’ prospectuses.

ARK INNOVATION ETFs – Fourth Quarter 2019

Risks specific to Index ETFs include Index Tracking Risk. The returns of the ETF may not match the returns of the underlying index that the
ETF is designed to track. Israel Risk. Israeli companies may be adversely affected by changes in political climate, government regulation, world
events, economic conditions, and exchange rates. The unique characteristics of securities of Israeli companies and the Israel stock market
may have a negative impact on the ETF. Detailed information regarding the specific risks of the ARK ETFs can be found in the ARK ETFs’
prospectuses.

Additional risks of investing in ARK ETFs include market, management and non-diversification risks, as well as fluctuations in market value
NAV. ETF shares may only be redeemed directly with the ETF at NAV by Authorized Participants, in very large creation units. There can be no
guarantee that an active trading market for ETF shares will develop or be maintained, or that their listing will continue or remain unchanged.
Buying or selling ETF shares on an exchange may require the payment of brokerage commissions and frequent trading may incur brokerage
costs that detract significantly from investment returns.

The Fund’s exposure to cryptocurrency may change over time and, accordingly, such exposure may not always be represented in the Fund’s
portfolio.

Many significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of investments in bitcoin are uncertain and an investment in bitcoin may
produce income that is not treated as qualifying income for purposes of the income test applicable to regulated investment companies, such
as the Fund. GBTC is expected to be treated as a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and therefore an investment by the Fund
in GBTC will generally be treated as a direct investment in bitcoin for such purposes. See ‘‘Taxes’’ in the Fund’s SAI for more information.
