Today, Krane Funds Advisors, LLC (“KraneShares”), an asset
management firm known for its global exchange-traded funds (ETFs)
announced the launch of the KraneShares Hedgeye Hedged Equity Index
ETF (Ticker: KSPY) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
KraneShares has an exclusive license to the Hedgeye Hedged Equity
Index provided by Hedgeye Asset Management, LLC (“HAM”), a
subsidiary of Hedgeye Risk Management, LLC (“Hedgeye”), a leading
independent provider of real-time investment research and online
financial media headquartered in Stamford, CT.
KSPY tracks the Hedgeye Hedged Equity Index. The Index provides
exposure to the S&P 500 while seeking to reduce volatility and
to provide downside risk management. The Index utilizes a model
based on Hedgeye’s proprietary Risk Range™ Signals that analyze the
daily trading range of the S&P 500. The Index toggles between
three options strategies based on where the S&P 500 falls
within these ranges. These options strategies are intended to
provide downside risk management, option income, and potential
compensation for the loss of upside. Depending on market
conditions, the Index can change options strategies as frequently
as daily.
“With equities reaching record valuations, volatility is
becoming a significant concern for investors,” said Brendan Ahern,
KraneShares CIO. “The top 10 stocks in the S&P 500 currently
account for over 35% of the index's market value, which is higher
than the 27% share they had during the tech bubble in 2000.1 This
concentration could potentially increase risk by skewing
performance towards certain sectors or companies. We believe now
may be an opportune time for investors to consider a strategy that
aims to reduce volatility and provide a downside hedge like
KSPY.”
“Hedgeye’s proprietary Risk RangeTM Signals provide us with the
indicators we need to effectively manage S&P 500 volatility in
a systematic manner,” said John S. McNamara III, CIO at HAM.
“We believe Hedgeye’s Risk RangeTM Signals are a valuable tool
for determining S&P 500 levels in the immediate term,” said
Hedgeye CEO, Keith McCullough, regarding the Hedgeye Risk Range™
Signals. “Since Hedgeye began publishing daily trading ranges in
2015, we’ve grown a considerable subscriber base, with investors
utilizing these reliable trading ranges daily in their own
strategies.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Hedgeye, an innovative research
firm, to deliver a differentiated solution for investors seeking
equity exposure with enhanced risk management,” said Jonathan
Krane, KraneShares CEO. “Combining KraneShares' ETF expertise with
select partners like Hedgeye underscores our commitment to bringing
sophisticated options-based strategies to our investors.”
An option hedged equity ETF uses a strategy involving the buying
and selling of options in addition to investing in equities. Its
goal is to provide investors with lower-risk alternatives to
traditional index ETFs. KraneShares manages the options exposure on
behalf of investors, which can be more economical and
time-efficient than buying individual stock options.

Risk Disclosures:
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.
There can be no assurance that a Fund will achieve its stated
objectives. Indices are unmanaged and do not include the effect of
fees. One cannot invest directly in an index.
This information should not be relied upon as research,
investment advice, or a recommendation regarding any products,
strategies, or any security in particular. This material is
strictly for illustrative, educational, or informational purposes
and is subject to change. Certain content represents an assessment
of the market environment at a specific time and is not intended to
be a forecast of future events or a guarantee of future results;
material is as of the dates noted and is subject to change without
notice.
KSPY may invest in derivatives, which are often more volatile
than other investments and may magnify KSPY’s gains or losses. A
derivative (i.e., futures/forward contracts, swaps, and options) is
a contract that derives its value from the performance of an
underlying asset. The primary risk of derivatives is that changes
in the asset’s market value and the derivative may not be
proportionate, and some derivatives can have the potential for
unlimited losses. Derivatives are also subject to liquidity and
counterparty risk. KSPY is subject to liquidity risk, meaning that
certain investments may become difficult to purchase or sell at a
reasonable time and price. If a transaction for these securities is
large, it may not be possible to initiate, which may cause KSPY to
suffer losses. Counterparty risk is the risk of loss in the event
that the counterparty to an agreement fails to make required
payments or otherwise comply with the terms of the derivative.
Hedges may have imperfect matching between the derivative and the
underlying security; there is no assurance that hedging will be
effective. Hedging may reduce or eliminate losses or gains.
Hedgeye Risk Management, LLC’s ("HRM") ability to publish daily
Risk Range™ signals is heavily dependent on the manual activities
of a single individual, HRM’S CEO and founder (“Key Man”). In Key
Man’s absence, the Risk Range™ signals will be published by another
individual (“Secondary Calculator”). The formula utilized by the
Secondary Calculator is based on a formula that incorporates the
same factors as the formula used by the Key Man but this formula is
not identical to the formula utilized by the Key Man. If the Key
Man were to leave HRM or is unable to calculate the Risk Range™
signals, the Risk Range™ signals and the Underlying Index may not
function as designed and adversely impact KSPY.
KSPY is new and does not yet have a significant number of shares
outstanding. If KSPY does not grow in size, it will be at greater
risk than larger funds of wider bid-ask spreads for its shares,
trading at a greater premium or discount to NAV, liquidation and/or
a trading halt. Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit
higher volatility. KSPY’s assets are expected to be concentrated in
a sector, industry, market, or group of concentrations to the
extent that the Underlying Index has such concentrations. The
securities or futures in that concentration could react similarly
to market developments. Thus, KSPY is subject to loss due to
adverse occurrences that affect that concentration.
Large capitalization companies may struggle to adapt fast,
impacting their growth compared to smaller firms, especially in
expansive times. This could result in lower stock returns than
investing in smaller and mid-sized companies. KSPY is
non-diversified.
ETF shares are bought and sold on an exchange at market price
(not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. However,
shares may be redeemed at NAV directly by certain authorized
broker-dealers (Authorized Participants) in very large
creation/redemption units. The returns shown do not represent the
returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.
Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the
secondary market. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
Beginning 12/23/2020, market price returns are based on the
official closing price of an ETF share or, if the official closing
price isn't available, the midpoint between the national best bid
and national best offer ("NBBO") as of the time the ETF calculates
the current NAV per share. Prior to that date, market price returns
were based on the midpoint between the Bid and Ask price. NAVs are
calculated using prices as of 4:00 PM Eastern Time.
The KraneShares ETFs and KFA Funds ETFs are distributed by SEI
Investments Distribution Company (SIDCO), 1 Freedom Valley Drive,
Oaks, PA 19456, which is not affiliated with Krane Funds Advisors,
LLC, the Investment Adviser for the Funds, or any sub-advisers for
the Fund.

Hedgeye Asset Management, LLC (“HAM”) is not affiliated with the
Trust, Krane, the Trust’s administrator, custodian, transfer agent
or Distributor, or any of their respective affiliates. Krane and
HAM have entered into an index provider agreement (the “Agreement”)
pursuant to which HAM has licensed the exclusive use of the Index

permitted to sublicense such rights to the Fund and uses the marks
for the purpose of promoting and marketing the Fund. Under the
Agreement, HAM is compensated, in part, on the asset size of the
Fund and therefore benefits directly from investments in the Fund.

signals to HAM under a licensing agreement. As such, HRM benefits
directly from investments in the Fund.
The Fund is not in any way advised, managed, sponsored,
endorsed, sold or promoted by HAM or HRM, and neither HAM nor HRM
make any claim, prediction, warranty or representation whatsoever,
expressly or impliedly, either as to (i) the results to be obtained
