Nature of Business and Index: The return on the Securities is linked to the performance of the Barclays Capital Intelligent Carry Index (the "Index"), which through an objective and systematic methodology, seeks to capture the returns that are potentially available from a strategy of investing in high-yielding currencies with the exposure financed by borrowings in low-yielding securities. The Securities do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity and do not pay any interest during their term. Instead, you will receive a cash payment at maturity or upon early redemption based on the performance of the Index less an investor fee.

The following is a summary of some of the terms and provisions of the ETNs. All terms below that are capitalized and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Prospectus. For further information reference should be made to the Prospectus, which is available at http://www.ipathetn.com/ICI-overview.jsp and on www.sec.gov (EDGAR).
