(1) Based on the period January 22, 2013 to February 19, 2013, where the
prior month's net asset value per unit is adjusted to include the prior
month's distribution.

per unit which is available at www.HorizonsETFs.com.
(3) Annualized and based on the applicable January 22, 2013 net asset value
per unit which is available at www.HorizonsETFs.com.
(4) The absolute change of the prior month's previously announced
annualized distribution yield to the current month's annualized
distribution yield.
(5) Distributions for Horizons Enhanced Income US Equity (USD) ETF are
declared and paid in U.S. dollars.

distributions attributable to those units have been prorated from their
launch date.
Each ETF makes Distributions to unitholders based on the amount of call option premiums received during the month, along with any dividend income received, less expenses payable by the ETF. Call option premiums, and therefore the amounts distributed, tend to reflect the prevailing implied volatilities, either higher or lower. Should implied volatility levels increase in the future from current levels, it would be expected that call option premiums would generally, but not always, rise. Distributions will vary from period to period.
The following commentary is provided with respect to the February 2013 distributions for the ETFs. Any discussion of implied volatility below is based on the average implied volatility of the nearest out-of-the-money call options on the underlying portfolio securities of the respective ETFs.
HEX / HEX.A
The slight decrease in the distribution yield for the current month,
when compared to the prior month's distribution yield, reflects greater
option buyback costs in the financial sector over the past month.
HEE / HEE.A
The distribution yield for the current month was relatively unchanged
when compared to that of the prior month. This reflects very little
change in the implied volatility in the energy sector over the past
month.
HEP / HEP.A
The increase in the distribution yield for the current month, when
compared to the prior month's distribution yield, reflects an increase
in the implied volatility of the equities in the gold sector as well as
lower option buyback costs over the past month.
HEF / HEF.A
The decrease in the distribution yield for the current month, when
compared to the prior month's distribution yield, reflects greater
option buyback costs due to an increase in equity prices in the
financial sector over the past month.
HEJ / HEJ.A
The distribution yield for the current month was relatively unchanged when compared to that of the prior month. This reflects very little change in the implied volatility in international equities over the past month.
HEA.U/HEA.V; HES/HES.A
The decrease in the distribution yield for the current month, when
compared to the prior month's distribution yield, reflects greater
option buyback costs as a result of an increase in US equities, as well
as lower implied volatilities.
HAX / HAX.A
This distribution yield reflects the dividend yield of the underlying
index, given that this ETF was launched within the past month.
HGY / HGY.A
The increase in the distribution yield for the current month, when
compared to the prior month's yield, reflects lower option buyback
costs as a result of a decline in the price of gold bullion over the
past month.
HZY / HZY.A
The increase in the distribution yield, when compared to the prior
month's distribution yield, reflects lower option buyback costs as a
result of a decline in the price of silver bullion over the past month.
HOY / HOY.A
The decrease in the distribution yield for the current month, when
compared to the prior month's distribution yield, reflects a decrease
in the implied volatility of crude oil to multi-year lows, in addition
to greater option buyback costs over the past month.
HNY / HNY.A
The increase in the distribution yield for the current month, when
compared to the prior month's distribution yield, reflects lower option
buyback costs as a result of a decline in the price of natural gas over
the past month.
