RevenueShares Navellier Overall A-100 Fund

Investment Objective

RevenueShares Navellier Overall A-100 Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to outperform the total return performance of the Navellier Overall A-100 Index, the Fund’s benchmark index (the “Benchmark Index”).

Fees and Expenses

The following table describes the fees and expenses you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund (“Shares”). You may also incur customary brokerage charges when buying or selling Fund Shares.


Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

        Management Fees 0.60%

        Distribution and/or Service (12b-l) Fees 0.00%

        Other Expenses 0.80%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses 1.40%

        Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement (1) 0.80%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses after Fee Waiver 0.60%
        and/or Expense Reimbursement  


(1)     

RevenueShares ETF Trust (the “Trust”) and VTL Associates, LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser (“VTL” or “Management”) have entered into a written fee waiver and expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which VTL has agreed to waive a portion of its fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to keep the Fund’s expenses (excluding any taxes, interest, brokerage fees, certain insurance costs and extraordinary expenses) from exceeding 0.60% of net assets. This agreement will remain in effect and will be contractually binding through October 31, 2011.

The following example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of the Shares at the end of those periods. This example assumes that the Fund provides a return of 5% a year and that operating expenses remain the same, except that the Fund’s expenses are reduced during the first year by the fee waiver and expense reimbursement agreement described above. This example does not include the brokerage commission that you may pay to buy and sell exchange-traded Shares of the Fund. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 years
$ 61 $ 364 $ 689 $ 1,610

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities or other instruments. A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 182.12% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund is an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”). The Fund’s investment objective is to outperform the total return performance of the Benchmark Index. For purposes of the Fund’s investment objective, “total return” refers to a combination of capital appreciation and income.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by attempting to replicate the portfolio of the RevenueShares Navellier Overall A-100 IndexTM (the “Underlying Index”). The Benchmark Index determines the proportion, or “weighting,” of each constituent security based on each security’s market capitalization (that is, its stock price multiplied by the number of outstanding shares). The Underlying Index is constructed by re-weighting the constituent securities of the Benchmark Index according to the revenue earned by the companies in the Benchmark Index, subject to certain asset diversification requirements and a maximum 7% per company

1



weighting. The Underlying Index thus generally contains the same securities as the Benchmark Index, but in different proportions. The Underlying Index is reconstituted quarterly according to September 30 revenue weightings promptly following the reconstitution of the Benchmark Index.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in companies included in the Benchmark Index, and generally expects to be substantially invested at such times, with at least 95% of its net assets invested in these securities.

The Fund’s intention is to replicate the constituent securities of the Underlying Index as closely as possible. When a replication strategy could have adverse consequences to Fund shareholders, however, the Fund may utilize a “representative sampling” strategy whereby the Fund would hold a significant number of the component securities of the Underlying Index, but may not track that index with the same degree of accuracy as would an investment vehicle replicating the entire index. The Fund does not seek temporary defensive positions when equity markets decline or appear to be overvalued.

The Fund is non-diversified and therefore may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a diversified Fund.

Principal Risks

Like all investments, investing in the Fund entails risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest.

Investment Approach Risk The alternate weighting approach employed by the Underlying Index and the Fund, while designed to enhance potential returns compared to the Benchmark Index, may not produce the desired results. Using revenues as a weighting measure is no guarantee that the Underlying Index or the Fund will outperform the Benchmark Index, and may even cause the Underlying Index or the Fund to underperform the Benchmark Index.

Stock Market Risk Stock market risk is the risk that broad movements in financial markets will adversely affect the price of the Fund’s investments, regardless of how well the companies in which the Fund invests perform. There is also a risk that the price of one or more of the securities or other instruments in the Fund’s portfolio will fall.

Market Trading Risks There can be no assurance that an active trading market for Shares will develop or be maintained. Although it is expected that Shares will be listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), it is possible that an active trading market may not be maintained.

Premium/Discount Risk As an ETF, Shares generally trade in the secondary market on the Exchange at market prices that change throughout the day. Although it is expected that the market price of Fund Shares will approximate the Fund’s NAV, there may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. You may pay more than NAV when you buy Shares of the Fund on the Exchange, and you may receive less than NAV when you sell those Shares on the Exchange.

Non-Correlation Risk The Fund’s return may not match the return of the Underlying Index. The Fund incurs a number of operating expenses that are not reflected in the Underlying Index, including the cost of buying and selling securities.

Increased Volatility Increased volatility may result from increased cash flows to the Fund and other ETFs in the market that continuously or systematically buy large holdings of small and medium capitalization companies, which can drive prices up and down more dramatically. Additionally, the announcement that a security has been added to a widely followed index or benchmark may cause the price of that security to increase. Conversely, the announcement that a security has been deleted from a widely followed index or benchmark may cause the price of that security to decrease.

Small and Medium Capitalization Stock Risk Small and medium capitalization companies may have an unproven or narrow technological base and limited product lines, distribution channels, markets and financial resources. Small and medium capitalization companies also may be dependent on entrepreneurial management, making the companies more susceptible to certain setbacks and reversals. Securities of small and medium

capitalization companies may also be more sensitive to changes in the economy, such as changes in the level of interest rates. As a result, the securities of small and medium capitalization companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements than securities of larger companies, may have limited marketability, and may be less liquid than securities of companies with larger capitalizations.

Non-Diversification Risk The Fund is non-diversified and, as a result, may have greater volatility than other diversified funds. Because a non-diversified fund may invest a larger percentage of its assets in securities of a single company than diversified funds, the performance of that company can have a substantial impact on Share price.

Growth Style Investing Growth stock prices reflect projections of future earnings or revenues, and can therefore fall dramatically if the company fails to meet those projections. Growth stocks may be more expensive relative to their current earnings or assets compared to value or other stocks, and if earnings growth expectations moderate, their valuations may return to more typical levels, causing their stock prices to fall. Prices of these companies’ securities may be more volatile than other securities, particularly over the short term.

Portfolio Turnover Risk Because the Fund is reconstituted quarterly, the Fund may experience portfolio turnover in excess of 100%. Portfolio turnover may involve the payment by the Fund of brokerage and other transaction costs on the sale of securities, as well as on the investment of the proceeds in other securities. The greater the portfolio turnover, the greater the transaction costs to the Fund, which could have an adverse effect on the Fund’s total rate of return, and the more likely the Fund is to generate capital gains that must be distributed to shareholders as taxable income.

Performance

Because the Fund has not completed a full calendar year of operations, no performance information has been provided.

Individual Shares may only be purchased and sold on the Exchange through a broker-dealer. Shares will trade at market prices rather than NAV. As such, Shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount).

Financial Intermediary Compensation

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Adviser may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.
