| Investment Objective: |
Calamos Laddered Bitcoin Structured Alt Protection ETF (the "Fund") seeks to provide exposure to the price of bitcoin. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by providing investors with exposure to the price return of the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate New York Variant ("BRRNY") ("Spot bitcoin") while attempting to limit downside risk through a laddered portfolio of four Calamos Bitcoin Structured Alt Protection ETFs (the "Underlying ETFs"). The BRRNY is a once a day benchmark index price for bitcoin that aggregates trade data from multiple bitcoin-USD markets operated by major cryptocurrency exchanges that conform to the CME CF Constituent Exchange Criteria. The term "laddered portfolio" refers to the Fund's investment in multiple Underlying ETFs that have target outcome period expiration dates which occur on a rolling, or periodic, basis. See below for a discussion of "target outcome periods" and their meaning within the strategies of the Underlying ETFs. The rolling or "laddered" nature of the investments in the Underlying ETFs creates diversification of investment time period compared to the risk of acquiring or disposing of any one Underlying ETF at any one time. |
