Fund Description: First Trust Chindia ETF, formerly First Trust ISE Chindia Index Fund, is an exchange-traded index fund or Index ETF which is a separate investment portfolio of First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund, an open-end investment management company. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The First Trust Chindia ETF seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield, before fees and expenses, of the ISE ChIndia Index. INDEX DESCRIPTION: The ISE ChIndia Index is a non-market capitalization weighted portfolio of 50 American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), American Depositary Shares (ADSs) and/or stocks selected from a universe of all listed ADRs, ADSs and/or stocks of companies from China and India currently trading on U.S. exchanges. ADRs are certificates issued by a U.S. bank that represent a bank's holdings of a stated number of shares of a non-U.S. company. ADSs are vehicles for non-U.S. companies to list their equity shares on a U.S. exchange and are U.S. dollar denominated, and each share represents one or more underlying shares in a non-U.S. company. The Index includes the securities of small and mid cap companies. Some Chinese companies are listed on both the Hong Kong Stock Exchange with H shares and the Shanghai Stock Exchange with A shares. FUND STRATEGY: The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its total assets in common stocks that comprise the Index. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to replicate, before expenses, the performance of the Index. In seeking to achieve the Fund's investment objective, the Fund generally will invest in all of the stocks comprising the Index in proportion to their weightings in the Index. However, under various circumstances, it may not be possible or practicable to purchase all of those stocks in those weightings. In those circumstances, the Fund may purchase a sample of stocks in the Index. There may also be instances in which the adviser may choose to overweight certain stocks in the Index, purchase securities not in the Index which the adviser believes are appropriate to substitute for certain securities in the Index, use futures or other derivative instruments, or utilize various combinations of the above techniques in seeking to track the Index. The Fund may sell stocks that are represented in the Index in anticipation of their removal from the Index or purchase stocks not represented in the Index in anticipation of their addition to the Index. FUND MANAGEMENT: First Trust Advisors L.P. serves as the investment adviser for the Fund.
