About WTPI
The Fund employs a “passive management” – or indexing– investment approach designed to track the performance of the Index. The Fund generally expects to invest in investments whoserisk, return, and other characteristics resemble the risk, return, and other characteristics of the constituents of the Index or theIndex as a whole. The Fund also may invest in a sample of the constituents of the Index whose risk, return, and other characteristicsresemble those of the Index as a whole. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowingsfor investment purposes, in investments that provide the Fund with equity exposure, including equity securities, derivative instrumentsthat provide exposure to equity securities or equity indices, as well as other instruments that in combination have economic characteristicssimilar or equivalent to those of equity securities. The Index is provided by Volos PortfolioSolutions, Inc. (“Volos” or the “Index Provider”). The Index tracks the value of a cash-secured (i.e.,collateralized) put option sales strategy, which consists of (1) selling (or “writing”) put options on the SPDR S&P 500® ETF Trust (“SPY”) (the “SPY Puts”) and (2) a cash collateral account that accruesinterest at a theoretical three-month Treasury bill rate on a daily basis. SPY Puts are derivative instruments that typically rise invalue when the price of SPY falls because SPY Puts are options to sell SPY at a designated strike price. All SPY Puts are exchange-listedstandardized options. The Index’s put option sales strategy is designed to generate income when SPY exhibits neutral to positiveperformance with low volatility, as such performance is expected to decrease the hypothetical price of the sold SPY Puts. The Index selectsSPY Puts that target a premium of 2.5% (i.e., the SPY Put costs approximately 2.5% of the official daily price of SPY). At anygiven time, the Index references two SPY Puts with expiration dates that are two weeks apart. In seeking to track the price and yieldperformance, before fees and expenses, of the Index, the Fund expects to sell put options on the S&P 500® Index (“Index Options”) and hold U.S. Treasury bills. The Fund also may use SPY Puts and anyother call or put option or futures contracts WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc. (“WisdomTree Asset Management” or the “Adviser”)or Newton Investment Management North America, LLC (“NIMNA” or the “Sub-Adviser”) believes will enable the Fundto implement its investment strategy and achieve its investment objective. By selling an Index Option, the Fund receives a premium fromthe option buyer. The premium will increase the Fund’s return if the sold Index Option has decreased in price on the Roll Date (asdefined in the next paragraph) relative to the premium received by the Fund from writing the Index Option. The Index Option will decreasein price if the S&P 500® Index experiencespositive performance because the Index Option is more valuable when the value of the S&P 500® Index decreases and/or experiences high volatility. If, however, the price of the sold Index Option increasescompared to the price of the Index Option when written by the Fund (e.g., in response to the S&P 500® Index decreasing in value and/or experiencing high volatility), the Fund pays the buyer the difference betweenthe Index Option price on the Roll Date and the Index Option price when written by the Fund. The Fund’s sale of cash-secured IndexOptions serves to partially offset a decline in the value of the S&P 500® Index to the extent of the premiums received.However, if the value of the S&P 500® Indexincreases beyond the premiums received, Fund returns would not be expected to increase accordingly. The Fund’s potential returnis limited to the amount of the option premiums it receives. The Index Options sold by the Fund areselected to target a premium of 2.5% (i.e., the cash received by the Fund from the buyer of the Index Option is approximately 2.5%of the daily value of the S&P 500® Index).At any given time, the Fund holds at least two Index Options (or other investments designed to achieve the same effect) with differentexpiration dates. The Fund generally closes out the Index Options prior to their expiration dates, and newly selected Index Options aresold by the Fund on the same day (the “Roll Date”) in a process known as “rolling”. Rolling refers to the practiceof closing out one options position and opening another with a different expiration date and/or a different strike price. When an IndexOption is closed out by the Fund on the Roll Date, the Fund generally selects a new Index Option with a target expiration date in thefollowing month. Each new Index Option will also have a strike price that is the higher of (i) the “at the money” strike price(i.e., a strike price that is closest to but greater than the current market value of the S&P 500® Index), or (ii) the strike price for an Index Option that has a premium closest to 2.5%. By following the Index’s put option sales strategy, as describedabove, the Fund expects to operate in a manner similar to, and subject to the same risks as, the Index. The number of Index Options soldby the Fund varies but is limited by the amount held by the Fund in U.S. Treasury bills. At each Roll Date, any settlement from the existingIndex Options is paid from the U.S. Treasury bills investment proceeds and new Index Options are sold. The revenue from their sale isadded to the Fund’s U.S. Treasury bills account. The Fund is managed in a way that seeks, under normal circumstances,to provide monthly distributions at a relatively stable level.
