First Trust Advisors L.P., the Fund’s investment advisor, along
with its affiliate, First Trust Portfolios L.P., are privately-held
companies which provide a variety of investment services, including
asset management and financial advisory services, with collective
assets under management or supervision of approximately $113
billion as of November 30, 2015, through unit investment trusts,
exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, mutual funds and separate
managed accounts.
You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges
and expenses of a Fund before investing. Prospectuses for the Funds
contain this and other important information and are available free
of charge by calling toll-free at 1-800-621-1675 or visiting
www.ftportfolios.com. A prospectus should be read
carefully before investing.
Past performance is no assurance of future results. Principal
Risk Factors: A Fund’s shares will change in value, and you could
lose money by investing in a Fund. An investment in a Fund involves
risk similar to those of investing in any fund of equity securities
traded on exchanges. The risks of investing in each Fund are
spelled out in its prospectus, shareholder report, and other
regulatory filings.
A Fund that is concentrated in securities of companies in a
certain sector or industry involves additional risks, including
limited diversification. A Fund that invests in companies that are
domiciled in a certain country or region may be subject to
additional risks due to political, economic and social conditions
in that country or region. A Fund which invests in foreign
securities may be subject to additional risks not associated with
domestic securities. Such risks may be heightened in the case of
securities of emerging markets countries. An Index ETF seeks
investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield
of an index. You should anticipate that the value of an Index
Fund’s shares will decline, more or less, in correlation with any
decline in the value of the index. An Index Fund’s return may not
match the return of the index. Unlike a Fund, the indices do not
actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore do not incur
the expenses incurred by a Fund.
An actively managed ETF is subject to management risk because it
is an actively managed portfolio. In managing such a Fund’s
investment portfolio, the portfolio managers will apply investment
techniques and risk analyses that may not have the desired result.
There can be no guarantee that a Fund will meet its investment
objective. Preferred Securities are subject to credit risk,
interest rate risk and income risk. Credit Risk may be heightened
if a Fund invests in “high yield” or “junk” debt. The First Trust
Senior Loan Fund is subject to credit risk, currency risk, high
yield securities risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk and
senior loans risk. The First Trust Tactical High Yield ETF is
subject to convertible bonds risk, credit risk, distressed
securities risk, high yield securities risk, interest rate risk,
loans risk, prepayment risk and short sale risk. The First Trust
Preferred Securities and Income ETF is subject to financial company
risk, high yield securities risk, income risk, preferred securities
risk and REIT risk. The First Trust High Income ETF is subject to
cash transaction risk, depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk,
market risk, new fund risk, diversification risk, and non-U.S.
securities risk. The First Trust Low Beta Income ETF is subject to
cash transaction risk, depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk,
market risk, new fund risk, non-diversification risk and non-U.S.
securities risk. The First Trust North American Energy
Infrastructure Fund is subject to concentration risk, currency
risk, depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk, energy
infrastructure company risk, geographic risk, interest rate risk,
MLP risk, non-diversification risk, and non-U.S. securities risk.
The First Trust Managed Municipal ETF is subject to alternative
minimum tax risk, call risk, cash transaction risk, credit risk,
high yield securities risk, income risk, municipal lease obligation
risk, non-diversification risk, political and economic risk, tax
risk, and zero coupon bonds risk. The First Trust Enhanced Short
Maturity ETF is subject to risk associated with investing in
mortgage-related and other asset back securities, interest rate
risk, prepayment risk, credit risk, call risk, cash transaction
risk, fixed income securities risk, floating rate loan risk, income
risk, investment company risk, new fund risk, non-U.S. securities
risk, and volatility risk. The First Trust Strategic Income ETF is
subject to covered call risk, credit risk, currency risk,
depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk, energy infrastructure
companies risk, equity securities risk, financial companies risk,
fixed income risk, high yield securities risk, illiquid securities
risk, income risk, interest rate risk, investment companies risk,
MLP risk, mortgage securities risk, emerging markets risk,
preferred securities risk, senior loan risk, and smaller companies
risk. The First Trust Low Duration Mortgage Opportunities ETF is
subject to cash transaction risk, counterparty risk, credit risk,
high yield securities risk, illiquid securities risk, income risk,
interest rate risk, management risk, market risk, mortgage-related
investments risk, new fund risk, non-diversification risk,
prepayment risk, repurchase agreement risk, short sales risk and
U.S. government and agency securities risk. The First Trust
Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF is subject to call risk,
cash transactions risk, credit risk, currency exchange rate risk,
currency risk, derivatives risk, emerging markets risk, global
depositary notes risk, high yield securities risk, illiquid
securities risk, income risk, interest rate risk, management risk,
market risk, new fund risk, non-diversification risk, non-U.S.
securities risk and sovereign debt risk. The First Trust Long/Short
Equity ETF is subject to cash transactions risk, depositary
receipts risk, derivatives risk, equity securities risk, ETF risk,
management risk, mark risk, non-U.S. securities risk, short sales
risk, and small fund risk. The First Trust SSI Strategic
Convertible Securities ETF is subject to BDC risk, cash
transactions risk, convertible securities risk, credit risk,
currency risk, debt securities risk, depositary receipts risk,
derivatives risk, equity securities risk, ETNS risk, high yield
securities risk, illiquid securities risk, income risk, interest
rate risk, management risk, market risk, new fund risk,
non-diversification risk, non-U.S. securities risk, preferred

receipts risk, emerging markets risk, equity securities risk,
Europe investment risk, interest rate risk, management risk, market
risk, non-diversification risk, non-U.S. securities risk, real
estate investment risk, and REIT investment risk.
Investors buying or selling Fund shares on the secondary market
may incur brokerage commissions. Investors who sell Fund shares may
receive less than the share’s net asset value. Unlike shares of
open-end mutual funds, investors are generally not able to purchase
Fund shares directly from the Fund and individual shares are not
redeemable. However, specified large blocks of shares called
“creation units” can be purchased from, or redeemed to, the
Fund.
