Defiance ETFs, a leading innovator in thematic and income-based
exchange-traded funds (ETFs), is excited to announce the renaming
and strategy update for its suite of Daily Options Income ETFs to
better reflect the adoption of same-day expiration options (0DTE)
and an enhanced income strategy.
Effective September 26th, the following changes have been
implemented:
- Defiance Nasdaq 100 Enhanced
Options Income ETF (Ticker:
QQQY) has been renamed to
Defiance Nasdaq 100 Enhanced Options & 0DTE Income
ETF.
- Defiance S&P 500 Enhanced Options Income
ETF will now trade under the new ticker symbol
WDTE and has been renamed to Defiance
S&P 500 Enhanced Options & 0DTE Income ETF.

Options Income ETF (Ticker:
IWMY) has been renamed to
Defiance R2000 Enhanced Options & 0DTE Income

Revised Income Strategy: Targeting Weekly
Distributions
Each Fund has revised its principal investment strategy to
target weekly distributions rather than monthly.
This shift is designed to better align with the income generation
opportunities provided by the daily options strategy.

Investing involves risk. Principal loss is
possible. As an ETF, the funds may trade at a premium or
discount to NAV. Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market
price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund.
Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
The Distribution Rate is the annual yield an
investor would receive if the most recently declared distribution,
which includes option income, remained the same going forward. The
Distribution Rate is calculated by multiplying an ETF’s
Distribution per Share by twelve (12), and dividing the resulting
amount by the ETF’s most recent NAV. The Distribution Rate
represents a single distribution from the ETF and does not
represent its total return. Distributions are not guaranteed.
An Investment in the Funds is not an investment in the Index,
nor are the Funds an investment in a traditional passively managed
index fund.
QQQY Index Overview: The Nasdaq 100 Index is a
benchmark index that includes 100 of the largest non-financial
companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, based on market
capitalization. This makes it a large-cap index, meaning its
constituents have a high market value, often in the billions of
dollars. The Index includes companies from various industries but
is heavily weighted towards the technology sector. This reflects
the Nasdaq’s historic strength as a listing venue for tech
companies. Other sectors represented include consumer
discretionary, health care, communication services, and
industrials, among others.
JEPY Index Overview: The S&P 500 Index is a
widely recognized benchmark index that tracks the performance of
500 of the largest U.S.-based companies listed on the New York
Stock Exchange or Nasdaq. These companies represent approximately
80% of the total U.S. equities market by capitalization, making it
a large-cap index.
IWMY Index Overview: The Russell 2000 Index is
a widely recognized benchmark index that tracks the performance of
approximately 2000 small-cap companies in the United States. These
are the smallest companies listed in the Russell 3000 Index,
representing about 10% of that index’s total market
capitalization.
QQQY Indirect Investment Risk. The Index is not
affiliated with the Trust, the Fund, the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser,
or their respective affiliates and is not involved with this
offering in any way. Investors in the Fund will not have the right
to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights
with respect to the companies that comprise the Index but will be
subject to declines in the performance of the Index. The Nasdaq 100

Index Trading Risk. The trading price of the
Index may be highly volatile and could continue to be subject to
wide fluctuations in response to various factors. The stock market
in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations
that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating
performance of companies.
S&P 500 Index Risks: The Index, which
includes a broad swath of large U.S. companies, is primarily
exposed to overall economic and market conditions. Recession,
inflation, and changes in interest rates can significantly impact
the index’s performance. Furthermore, despite its diverse
representation, a downturn in a major sector such as technology or
financials could notably affect the index. Geopolitical risks and
unexpected global events, like pandemics, can introduce volatility
and uncertainty.
The Nasdaq 100 Index Risks: The Index’s major
risks stem from its high concentration in the technology sector and
significant exposure to high-growth, high valuation companies. A
downturn in the tech industry, whether from regulatory changes,
shifts in technology, or competitive pressures, can greatly impact
the index. It’s also vulnerable to geopolitical risks due to many
constituent companies having substantial international operations.
Since many of these tech companies often trade at high valuations,
a shift in investor sentiment could lead to significant price
declines.
The Russell 2000 Index Risks: The Index, which
includes a broad swath of large U.S. companies, is primarily
exposed to overall economic and market conditions. Recession,
inflation, and changes in interest rates can significantly impact
the index’s performance. Furthermore, despite its diverse
representation, a downturn in a major sector such as technology or
financials could notably affect the index. Geopolitical risks and
unexpected global events, like pandemics, can introduce volatility
and uncertainty.
Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial
instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset
or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs),
interest rates or indexes. The Fund's investments in derivatives
may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated
with directly investing in securities or other ordinary
investments, including risk related to the market, imperfect
correlation with underlying investments, higher price volatility,
lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and
legal restrictions.
Price Participation Risk. The Fund employs an
investment strategy that includes the sale of in-the-money put
option contracts, which limits the degree to which the Fund will
participate in increases in value experienced by the Index over the
Call Period (typically, one day, but may range up to one week).
This means that if the Index experiences an increase in value above
the strike price of the sold put options during a Call Period, the
Fund will likely not experience that increase to the same extent
and may significantly underperform the Index over the Call Period.
Additionally, because the Fund is limited in the degree to which it
will participate in increases in value experienced by the Index
over each Call Period, but has full exposure to any decreases in
value experienced by the Index over the Call Period, the NAV of the
Fund may decrease over any given time period.
Distribution Risk. As part of the Fund's
investment objective, the Fund seeks to provide current monthly
income. There is no assurance that the Fund will make a
distribution in any given month. If the Fund does make
distributions, the amounts of such distributions will likely vary
greatly from one distribution to the next.
New Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized
management investment company with no operating history. As a
result, prospective investors do not have a track record or history
on which to base their investment decisions.
High Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund may
actively and frequently trade all or a significant portion of the
Fund’s holdings. A high portfolio turnover rate increases
transaction costs, which may increase the Fund’s expenses.
Liquidity Risk. Some securities held by the
Fund, including options contracts, may be difficult to sell or be
illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil. This risks
greater for the Fund as it will hold options contracts on a single
security, and not a broader range of options contracts.
