Rafferty Asset Management, LLC serves as the Funds’ Investment Adviser and Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. serves as the Funds’ sub-adviser. Read the Direxion Funds Prospectus and Flexible Plan Investments’ Brochure Form ADV Part 2A Carefully Before Investing. In deciding whether to invest in the Funds described, you should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks and the charges and expenses of the investment company before investing. Read the Prospectus carefully before investing. The Prospectus and Funds’ SAI contain information regarding the above considerations and more. You may obtain a Prospectus and SAI by calling Direxion Funds at (800) 851-0511 or writing Evolution Managed Funds, P.O. Box 1993, Milwaukee, WI 53201-1993 or download the PDF from http://www.flexibleplan.com/files/docs/EVProspectus.pdf. This is provided for information purposes only and should not be used or construed as an indicator of future performance, an offer to sell, a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a recommendation for any security. Flexible Plan Investments, Ltd. cannot guarantee the suitability or potential value of any particular investment. The Research Report results are HYPOTHETICAL. These results were achieved by means of retroactive application of a computer model and may not represent the results of actual trading. The hypothetical performance results depicted have been produced by application of selected mathematical calculation criteria to historical price data. Annual returns are compounded weekly and are inclusive of the last full trading week of the year, but may not necessarily include the last trading day of the year. Research Report results are NOT represented as actual trading or client experience nor do they reflect the impact on decision making of economic or market factors experienced during actual management of funds. Performance between selected dates may be misleading as indicative of overall performance of a strategy since the dates, chosen by the operator of the program are susceptible of having been selected to present optimum performance. The maximum investment advisory fee is 2.6% yearly, dependent upon assets under management and are deducted quarterly. Expenses of the funds or sub-accounts are included to the extent they are reflected in the NAV. Other fees may apply. Sub-accounts of variable annuities, in addition to the expenses of a mutual fund, have mortality, administrative and other charges. All expenses are required to be disclosed in each investment’s prospectus available from your financial representative and the product provider. Distributions have been reinvested. When provided, dividends are reinvested for indexes. In those cases where indexes do not provide dividend information, those returns would be understated. DWM Research provides the Market Leaders performance data to Flexible Plan. And, as with all third parties, Flexible Plan by necessity relies on their information, data, and software provided, but whose reliability, while believed to be accurate, cannot be guaranteed and losses may result from reliance upon them. These are normal risks for which Flexible Plan takes no responsibility beyond use of reasonable care in its selection of the third party. As individual tax rates vary, taxes have not been considered. Various minimum-holding periods for each fund or sub-account may be utilized to comply with trading restrictions. Advisor reserves the right to change these periods. No index is directly tradable. Actual investment performance of any trading strategy may frequently be materially different than the results shown. Some funds/sub-accounts used in the model may not be available for future use. As supplemental information, a listing of all assumed trades and other data used to generate the referenced results is available upon requests. Inquiry for more current results is advised. Inherent in any investment is the potential for loss as well as the potential for gain. A list of all recommendations made within the immediately preceding year is available upon written request. The performance data quoted on reverse represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate; and investors’ shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. PAST RESEARCH REPORT RESULTS DO NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS. See “Risk Considerations” in Brochure Form ADV Part 2.
