POWERSHARES EUROPE CURRENCY HEDGED LOW VOLATILITY PORTFOLIO (FXEU) Exchange: NYSE ARCA

DELISTED - The Fund generally will invest at least 90% of its total assets in common stocks that comprise the Underlying Index.Strictly in accordance with its guidelines and mandated procedures, S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC (the “Index Provider”) compiles, maintains and calculates the Underlying Index, which is designed to measure the performance of the 80 least volatile stocks in the S&P Eurozone BMI Index, while also employing a currency-hedged strategy that seeks to mitigate exposure to most of the fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the countries in which the component securities of the Underlying Index are domiciled.The S&P Eurozone BMI Index includes publicly listed equity stocks of any capitalization and/or style (e.g., growth or value stocks) of companies located in developed and emerging markets throughout the European Union. From the constituents of the S&P Eurozone BMI Index, the Index Provider selects securities with the least volatility over the past 12 months for inclusion in the Underlying Index. Volatility is a statistical measurement of the magnitude of up and down asset price fluctuations (increases or decreases in a stock’s price) over time. The Underlying Index is weighted such that the least volatile stocks receive the greatest weights.The Fund’s investments will be denominated in foreign currencies, thereby potentially subjecting the Fund to fluctuations in exchange rates between such currencies and the U.S. dollar. For example, the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) could decline if the currency of a non-U.S. market in which the Fund invests depreciates against the U.S. dollar. The Fund generally seeks to hedge against exchange rate fluctuations, by investing in foreign currency forward contracts, which are contracts between two parties to buy or sell a specified amount of a specific currency in the future at an agreed upon exchange rate. Through these contracts, the Fund is able to “lock in” the contract’s agreed-upon exchange rates. Through this process, the Fund attempts to use the profits (or losses) from the forward contracts to offset the losses (or profits) from changes in currency values. Depending on the currency fluctuations, the Fund may sacrifice potential currency gains by locking in a certain rate; however, it effectively negates the risk of loss that the Fund may incur from the currency exposure. In addition, the Fund’s exposure to the non-U.S. currencies may not be fully hedged at all times due to limitations imposed by interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff regarding covering the foreign currency forward contracts. Therefore, while this approach is designed to minimize the impact of most currency fluctuations on Fund returns, it does not necessarily eliminate the Fund’s exposure to currencies all together. The return of the foreign currency forward contracts may not perfectly offset the actual fluctuations between the component currencies and the U.S. dollar.The Fund generally invests in all of the securities comprising the Underlying Index in proportion to their weightings in the Underlying Index. The Fund is “non-diversified” and therefore is not required to meet certain diversification requirements under the Investment Company of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).Concentration Policy. The Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., invest more than 25% of the value of its net assets) in securities of issuers in any one industry or group of industries only to the extent that the Underlying Index reflects a concentration in that industry or group of industries. The Fund will not otherwise concentrate its investments in securities of issuers in any one industry or group of industries.
