Investment Objective

HHIH will seek to provide Unitholders with (i) high monthly cash distributions; (ii) the opportunity for capital appreciation; and (iii) lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would otherwise be experienced by owning the portfolio securities of Harvest High Income Equity Shares ETF directly. To achieve lower overall volatility of returns, the Harvest High Income Equity Shares ETF will generally write covered call options on up to 50% of the equity securities held directly by the Harvest High Income Equity Shares ETF or invest in exchange traded mutual funds managed by the Manager that (i) invest in single equity securities, and (ii) engage in covered call strategies. The level of covered call option writing may vary based on market volatility and other factors.
