GLENCOE, IL (CHICAGO)
60022 Email: info@east-westadvisors.com www.East-WestAdvisors.com Phone: 847-786-4697 This brochure makes reference to certain funds (“Fund(s)”) operated by East West Advisors LLC (“EWA”) having a principal protection feature designed to protect against trading losses. Generally speaking, the principal protection feature involves the Funds purchasing investment grade bonds at a discount using approximately 70% of the Funds’ assets, with the remaining assets being used to trade commodity interests (the “Futures Portfolio”). It is anticipated that the value of the bonds at maturity for each Fund will be sufficient to cover any potential loss of investors’ assets invested in the Futures Portfolio. However, in the event of default of any or all of the bonds purchased by a Fund, the Fund’s principal protection feature may not be sufficient to cover the entire loss of investors’ assets invested in the Futures Portfolio. In addition, in the event of default of any or all of the bonds purchased by a Fund, the investors’ losses could involve a loss of some or all of the bonds used to provide principal protection. Risk Disclosure: You should carefully consider whether your financial condition permits you to participate in a Fund, which invest in commodity interests. You should be aware that commodity interest trading can quickly lead to large losses as well as gains. Such trading losses can sharply reduce the net asset value of a Fund and consequently the value of your interest in a Fund. In addition, restrictions on redemptions may affect your ability to withdraw your participation in a Fund. Further, the Funds may be subject to substantial charges for management, advisory and brokerage fees. It may be necessary for those pools that are subject to these charges to make substantial trading profits to avoid depletion or exhaustion of their assets. This material is being provided for information and discussion purposes only and is qualified in its entirety by the information included in each Fund’s the offering documents and supplements (collectively, the “Memorandum”). Any offer or solicitation of the Funds may be made only by delivery of the Memorandum. Before making any investment in a Fund, you should thoroughly review the Memorandum with your professional advisor(s) to determine whether the Fund are suitable for you in light of your investment objectives and financial situation. The Memorandum contains important information concerning risk factors, including a more comprehensive description of the risks and other material aspects of an investment in a Fund, and should be read carefully before any decision to invest is made. • Client Focus: Through our structure, our interests are directly aligned with those of our Clients. • Emphasis on Customer Service: Real people available, not a computer, to service the needs of our clients. • Third Party Administrator (TPA): To validate and produce monthly accounting for all investors in order to create transparency and fully disclose the precise performance on a monthly basis. • Market Access: To identify and secure desirable investments through the combined resources of our in-house team and our longstanding relationships with select partners. • Market Execution: Specialized capabilities in complex transactions and asset management. • Disciplined Risk Management: Achieved through our Risk & Quantitative Analysis team who work closely with other investment and economic professionals to monitor and manage risk.

CAPITALIZE ON A CHANGING
WORLD East West Advisors created a family of hybrid multi-market principal protected investment funds. These funds are laser focused on providing non-correlated, balanced portfolios, which aim to limit correlation between asset classes and ultimately reduce unnecessary exposure to risk. The iFund Principal Protected Funds structure allows for portfolio planning that traditional financial advisors aren’t able to create and provide. Both proprietary and third party research and analytical tools are utilized, as well as deep market knowledge, to identify opportunities. PRINCIPAL PROTECTED INVESTMENTS The iFund portfolio of funds are designed to protect against loss by utilizing Investment Grade Bonds. We believe you’ll view these investments as the safest possible way to not only preserve your wealth, but to ultimately grow it. These Hybrid Principal Protected investment vehicles have several additional advantages over other commonly offered investments, such as: POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS FUTURES AND OPTIONS TRADING INVOLVES A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF LOSS. YOU SHOULD THEREFORE CAREFULLY CONSIDER WHETHER SUCH TRADING IS APPROPRIATE FOR YOU IN LIGHT OF YOUR FINANCIAL CONDITION. The principal protection feature may include high yield investment grade debt instruments that mature at face value at a future date, typically 5 to 10 years from the date of purchase of the instruments, and provide coupon payments and interest income. Investors will need to maintain their investment to coincide with the typical maturity dates of the investment grade debt instruments to recognize the full benefits of the principal protected feature. INVESTMENT & RETIREMENT SOLUTIONS We believe successful investing, and ultimately successful retirement, is the result of sustaining a strategic advantage via a proper balance of active and passive investment management. Equally important is a thorough approach to risk management, through a focus on non-correlated portfolio construction and exposure to proper sectors, markets, and asset classes. • No lock-ups • No surrender charges • Uncapped Multi-Market gains* • IRA approved for tax deferred growth • Principal Protection provided by Investment Grade Bonds • Potential for gains in excess of the S&P 500 and DOW with protection against loss © • Principal Protected Hybrid • Strong Growth Potential • Monthly Liquidity • Niche Sectors & Markets • Investment Grade Bonds • Private Client Services • Tax Deferred Strategies • Professional Management • Incentive Based Strategies • Unique Strategies *The iFunds’ Futures Portfolios are not subject to maturity dates, and thus may continue to appreciate in value beyond the maturity dates of the principal protection components of the iFunds. 02 If you were to craft the perfect Investment, you would probably want its attributes to include high returns coupled with low risk. Not surprisingly, people spend a lot of time developing methods and strategies that come close to the “perfect investment”. But none is as popular, or as compelling, as the Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT). Here we look at the basic ideas behind the MPT and how it affects and should ultimately guide the management of your portfolio. As one of the most important and influential economic theories dealing with finance and investment, the MPT was developed by Harry Markowitz and published under the title “Portfolio Selection” in the Journal of Finance. In 1990, he won the Nobel prize for what has become the frame upon which institutions and savvy investors construct their portfolios. In his article, “Portfolio Selection”, Markowitz described how to combine assets into efficiently diversified portfolios. He demonstrated that investors failed to account correctly for the high correlation among security returns. It was his position that a portfolio’s risk could be reduced and the expected rate of return increased, when assets with dissimilar price movements were combined. Holding securities that tend to move in concert with each other does not lower your risk. He concluded, “Diversification alone does not reduce risk unless assets are combined whose prices move inversely, or at different times, in relation to each other.” Dr. Markowitz was among the first to quantify risk and demonstrate how and why non-correlation can work to reduce risk and increase returns for investors. Proper diversification amongst non-correlated asset classes reduces volatility more efficiently than most people understand: The volatility of a properly diversified portfolio is less than the average of the volatilities of its component parts. While the technical underpinnings of the MPT are complex and drawn from financial economics, its conclusion is simple and easy to understand: a diversified portfolio, of non-correlated asset classes, can provide the highest returns with the least amount of volatility. Many investors are under the delusion that their portfolios are diversified if they are in stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, bond funds, and commodity funds. However, these investment vehicles may be invested in the same asset class and may generally move in concert with each other. When the stock market bubble burst, this was made painfully clear. Proper diversification according to the MPT is in different asset classes that move independently of one another. The brochure makes reference to managed futures. Please note that while managed futures may enhance returns and reduce risk, managed futures may have the opposite effect on a portfolio and, in fact, may result in losses in a portfolio. Further, studies conducted of managed futures as a whole may not be indicative of the performance of any individual money manager. In addition, studies conducted of managed futures as a whole may rely on managed futures indices to measure the performance of managed futures as an asset class; however, such indices do not represent the entire universe of all money managers. Moreover, investors cannot invest in an index itself, and the actual rates of return of money managers within an index may be significantly different and more volatile than those of the index. The following chart is only an example of the depth and breath of how an allocation to exchange traded futures can provide exposure to non- correlated global markets and asset classes.

CAPITALIZE ON A CHANGING
WORLD East West Advisors created a family of hybrid multi-market principal protected investment funds. These funds are laser focused on providing non-correlated, balanced portfolios, which aim to limit correlation between asset classes and ultimately reduce unnecessary exposure to risk. The iFund Principal Protected Funds structure allows for portfolio planning that traditional financial advisors aren’t able to create and provide. Both proprietary and third party research and analytical tools are utilized, as well as deep market knowledge, to identify opportunities. PRINCIPAL PROTECTED INVESTMENTS The iFund portfolio of funds are designed to protect against loss by utilizing Investment Grade Bonds. We believe you’ll view these investments as the safest possible way to not only preserve your wealth, but to ultimately grow it. These Hybrid Principal Protected investment vehicles have several additional advantages over other commonly offered investments, such as: POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS FUTURES AND OPTIONS TRADING INVOLVES A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF LOSS. YOU SHOULD THEREFORE CAREFULLY CONSIDER WHETHER SUCH TRADING IS APPROPRIATE FOR YOU IN LIGHT OF YOUR FINANCIAL CONDITION. The principal protection feature may include high yield investment grade debt instruments that mature at face value at a future date, typically 5 to 10 years from the date of purchase of the instruments, and provide coupon payments and interest income. Investors will need to maintain their investment to coincide with the typical maturity dates of the investment grade debt instruments to recognize the full benefits of the principal protected feature. INVESTMENT & RETIREMENT SOLUTIONS We believe successful investing, and ultimately successful retirement, is the result of sustaining a strategic advantage via a proper balance of active and passive investment management. Equally important is a thorough approach to risk management, through a focus on non-correlated portfolio construction and exposure to proper sectors, markets, and asset classes. • No lock-ups • No surrender charges • Uncapped Multi-Market gains* • IRA approved for tax deferred growth • Principal Protection provided by Investment Grade Bonds • Potential for gains in excess of the S&P 500 and DOW with protection against loss © • Principal Protected Hybrid • Strong Growth Potential • Monthly Liquidity • Niche Sectors & Markets • Investment Grade Bonds • Private Client Services • Tax Deferred Strategies • Professional Management • Incentive Based Strategies • Unique Strategies *The iFunds’ Futures Portfolios are not subject to maturity dates, and thus may continue to appreciate in value beyond the maturity dates of the principal protection components of the iFunds. 02 If you were to craft the perfect Investment, you would probably want its attributes to include high returns coupled with low risk. Not surprisingly, people spend a lot of time developing methods and strategies that come close to the “perfect investment”. But none is as popular, or as compelling, as the Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT). Here we look at the basic ideas behind the MPT and how it affects and should ultimately guide the management of your portfolio. As one of the most important and influential economic theories dealing with finance and investment, the MPT was developed by Harry Markowitz and published under the title “Portfolio Selection” in the Journal of Finance. In 1990, he won the Nobel prize for what has become the frame upon which institutions and savvy investors construct their portfolios. In his article, “Portfolio Selection”, Markowitz described how to combine assets into efficiently diversified portfolios. He demonstrated that investors failed to account correctly for the high correlation among security returns. It was his position that a portfolio’s risk could be reduced and the expected rate of return increased, when assets with dissimilar price movements were combined. Holding securities that tend to move in concert with each other does not lower your risk. He concluded, “Diversification alone does not reduce risk unless assets are combined whose prices move inversely, or at different times, in relation to each other.” Dr. Markowitz was among the first to quantify risk and demonstrate how and why non-correlation can work to reduce risk and increase returns for investors. Proper diversification amongst non-correlated asset classes reduces volatility more efficiently than most people understand: The volatility of a properly diversified portfolio is less than the average of the volatilities of its component parts. While the technical underpinnings of the MPT are complex and drawn from financial economics, its conclusion is simple and easy to understand: a diversified portfolio, of non-correlated asset classes, can provide the highest returns with the least amount of volatility. Many investors are under the delusion that their portfolios are diversified if they are in stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, bond funds, and commodity funds. However, these investment vehicles may be invested in the same asset class and may generally move in concert with each other. When the stock market bubble burst, this was made painfully clear. Proper diversification according to the MPT is in different asset classes that move independently of one another. The brochure makes reference to managed futures. Please note that while managed futures may enhance returns and reduce risk, managed futures may have the opposite effect on a portfolio and, in fact, may result in losses in a portfolio. Further, studies conducted of managed futures as a whole may not be indicative of the performance of any individual money manager. In addition, studies conducted of managed futures as a whole may rely on managed futures indices to measure the performance of managed futures as an asset class; however, such indices do not represent the entire universe of all money managers. Moreover, investors cannot invest in an index itself, and the actual rates of return of money managers within an index may be significantly different and more volatile than those of the index. The following chart is only an example of the depth and breath of how an allocation to exchange traded futures can provide exposure to non- correlated global markets and asset classes.

GLENCOE, IL (CHICAGO)
60022 Email: info@east-westadvisors.com www.East-WestAdvisors.com Phone: 847-786-4697 This brochure makes reference to certain funds (“Fund(s)”) operated by East West Advisors LLC (“EWA”) having a principal protection feature designed to protect against trading losses. Generally speaking, the principal protection feature involves the Funds purchasing investment grade bonds at a discount using approximately 70% of the Funds’ assets, with the remaining assets being used to trade commodity interests (the “Futures Portfolio”). It is anticipated that the value of the bonds at maturity for each Fund will be sufficient to cover any potential loss of investors’ assets invested in the Futures Portfolio. However, in the event of default of any or all of the bonds purchased by a Fund, the Fund’s principal protection feature may not be sufficient to cover the entire loss of investors’ assets invested in the Futures Portfolio. In addition, in the event of default of any or all of the bonds purchased by a Fund, the investors’ losses could involve a loss of some or all of the bonds used to provide principal protection. Risk Disclosure: You should carefully consider whether your financial condition permits you to participate in a Fund, which invest in commodity interests. You should be aware that commodity interest trading can quickly lead to large losses as well as gains. Such trading losses can sharply reduce the net asset value of a Fund and consequently the value of your interest in a Fund. In addition, restrictions on redemptions may affect your ability to withdraw your participation in a Fund. Further, the Funds may be subject to substantial charges for management, advisory and brokerage fees. It may be necessary for those pools that are subject to these charges to make substantial trading profits to avoid depletion or exhaustion of their assets. This material is being provided for information and discussion purposes only and is qualified in its entirety by the information included in each Fund’s the offering documents and supplements (collectively, the “Memorandum”). Any offer or solicitation of the Funds may be made only by delivery of the Memorandum. Before making any investment in a Fund, you should thoroughly review the Memorandum with your professional advisor(s) to determine whether the Fund are suitable for you in light of your investment objectives and financial situation.
