PROSHARES TRUST II

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2011

(unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

Introduction

ProShares Trust II (formerly known as the Commodities and Currencies Trust) (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust formed on October 9, 2007 and currently organized into separate series (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). The following fourteen series of the Trust, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares Ultra Gold, ProShares UltraShort Gold, ProShares Ultra Silver, ProShares UltraShort Silver, ProShares Ultra Euro, ProShares UltraShort Euro, ProShares Ultra Yen and ProShares UltraShort Yen (each, a “Leveraged Fund” and collectively, the “Leveraged Funds”), ProShares VIX Short-Term Futures ETF and ProShares VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF (each, a “VIX Fund” and collectively, the “VIX Funds”) issue common units of beneficial interest (“Shares”), which represent units of fractional undivided beneficial interest in and ownership of only that Leveraged or VIX Fund. The Shares of each Leveraged and VIX Fund are listed on the New York Stock Exchange Archipelago (“NYSE Arca”). The Trust has also registered shares for ten additional series: ProShares Short DJ-UBS Natural Gas and ProShares Short Gold (each, a “Short Fund” and collectively, the “Short Funds”), ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Natural Gas, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Natural Gas (each, a “New Natural Gas Fund” and collectively, the “New Natural Gas Funds”), ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, ProShares Short VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, ProShares UltraShort VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, ProShares Ultra VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF, ProShares Short VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF and ProShares UltraShort VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF (each, a “New VIX Fund” and collectively, the “New VIX Funds”). The Short Funds, the New Natural Gas Funds and the New VIX Funds are collectively referred to herein as the “New Funds”. As of September 30, 2011, each of the Short Funds had seed capital of $200, but neither of the Short Funds had commenced investment operations, and each of the New Natural Gas Funds and the New VIX Funds had seed capital of $400, but none of the New Natural Gas Funds or the New VIX Funds had commenced investment operations; therefore, these Financial Statements do not include Schedules of Investments, Statements of Operations, Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity or Statements of Cash Flows for the New Funds. The New Funds, together with the Leveraged Funds, are referred to as the “Geared Funds” in these Notes to Financial Statements. The Trust had no operations prior to November 24, 2008 other than matters relating to its organization, the registration of each series under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the sale and issuance to ProShare Capital Management LLC (the “Sponsor”) of fourteen Shares of each Leveraged Fund at an aggregate purchase price of $350 in each of the Leveraged Funds.

Eight of the Funds, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares Ultra Euro, ProShares UltraShort Euro, ProShares Ultra Yen and ProShares UltraShort Yen, commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on November 25, 2008. Four of the Funds, ProShares Ultra Gold, ProShares UltraShort Gold, ProShares Ultra Silver and ProShares UltraShort Silver, commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on December 3, 2008. The VIX Funds commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on January 3, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the New Funds had not yet commenced trading.

Groups of Funds are collectively referred to in several different ways. References to “Ultra Funds,” “Short Funds” or “UltraShort Funds” refer to the different Funds based upon their investment objectives, but without distinguishing among the Funds’ benchmarks. References to “Commodity Index Funds”, “Commodity Funds” and “Currency Funds” refer to the different Funds according to their general benchmark categories without distinguishing among the Funds’ investment objectives or Fund-specific benchmarks. References to “VIX Funds” refer to the different Funds based upon their investment objective and their general benchmark categories.

Each “Ultra” Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to twice (2x) the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Each “Short” Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to the inverse (-1x) of the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Each “UltraShort” Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to twice the inverse (-2x) of the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Daily performance

-86-


Table of Contents

is measured from the calculation of one NAV to the next. Each of the Geared Funds generally invests or will invest in Financial Instruments ( i.e. , commodity-based, currency-based or equity market volatility-based instruments whose value is derived from the value of an underlying asset, rate or index, including futures contracts and options on futures contracts, swap agreements, forward contracts and other commodity-based or currency-based options contracts) as a substitute for investing directly in commodities, currencies or equity market volatility products in order to gain exposure to the commodity index, currency benchmark, commodity, currency or to an equity market volatility index. The Financial Instruments in which ProShares Short DJ-UBS Natural Gas will invest are limited to futures contracts. Financial Instruments also are used to produce economically “leveraged” or “inverse” investment results for the Funds. Each “VIX” Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that match the performance of a benchmark. Each VIX Fund intends to obtain exposure to its benchmark by investing in futures contracts (“VIX futures contracts”) based on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”) Volatility Index (the “VIX”).

The Geared Funds do not seek to achieve their stated investment objective over a period of time greater than one day because mathematical compounding prevents the Geared Funds from achieving such results. Accordingly, results over periods of time greater than one day should not be expected to be a simple multiple ( e.g. , 2x or -2x) of the period return of the corresponding benchmark and will likely differ significantly. The VIX Funds seek to achieve their stated investment objective both over a single day and over time.

ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil and ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil each have a benchmark that is an index designed to track the performance of commodity futures contracts, as applicable and as listed below. The daily performance of these indexes and the corresponding funds will likely be very different from the daily performance of the price of the related physical commodities.

Renaming of Indexes and Funds

On May 6, 2009, UBS Securities LLC acquired the commodity business of AIG Financial Products Corp. Effective May 7, 2009, the Dow Jones-AIG Commodity Indexes were re-branded as the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Indexes. The Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Indexes have an identical methodology to the Dow Jones-AIG Commodity Indexes and take the identical form and format of the Dow Jones-AIG Commodity Indexes. In connection therewith:

The following indexes were renamed:

Former Index Name

New Index Name

Dow Jones-AIG Commodity Index Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index
Dow Jones-AIG Crude Oil Sub-Index Dow Jones-UBS Crude Oil Sub-Index
The following Funds were renamed:

Former Fund Name

New Fund Name

ProShares Ultra DJ-AIG Commodity ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity
ProShares UltraShort DJ-AIG Commodity ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity
ProShares Ultra DJ-AIG Crude Oil ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil
ProShares UltraShort DJ-AIG Crude Oil ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil

Reverse Splits

Prior to the opening of trading on the NYSE Arca on April 15, 2010, ProShares UltraShort Gold executed a 1-for-5 reverse split of shares, and ProShares UltraShort Silver executed a 1-for-10 reverse split of shares. The funds traded at their post-split prices on April 15, 2010. The ticker symbols for the funds did not change, and they continue to trade on the NYSE Arca.

Prior to the opening of trading on the NYSE Arca on February 25, 2011, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity and ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil executed a 1-for-5 reverse split of shares and ProShares UltraShort Silver and ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil executed a 1-for-4 reverse split of shares. The funds traded at their post-split prices on February 25, 2011. The ticker symbols for the funds did not change, and they continue to trade on the NYSE Arca.

-87-


Table of Contents

The reverse splits were applied retroactively for all periods presented, reducing the number of shares outstanding for each of the ProShares UltraShort Gold Fund, ProShares UltraShort Silver Fund, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity Fund, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil Fund and ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil Fund, and resulted in a proportionate increase in the price per share and per share information of each of the ProShares UltraShort Gold Fund, ProShares UltraShort Silver Fund, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity Fund, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil Fund and ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil Fund. Therefore, the reverse splits did not change the aggregate net asset value of a shareholder’s investment at the time of the split.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by each Geared Fund and each VIX Fund, as applicable, in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

The accompanying unaudited financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the interim period financial statements have been made. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full-year period. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Trust’s and the Funds’ financial statements included in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the SEC on March 1, 2011.

Use of Estimates & Indemnifications

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in these financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be known; however, the Trust expects any risk of loss to be remote.

Basis of Presentation

Pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC, audited financial statements are presented for the Trust as a whole, as the SEC registrant, and for each Fund individually. The debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Fund shall be enforceable only against the assets of such Fund and not against the assets of the Trust generally or any other Fund. Accordingly, the assets of one Fund of the Trust include only those funds and other assets that are paid to, held by or distributed to the Trust for the purchase of Units in that Fund.

Statement of Cash Flows

The cash amount shown in the Statements of Cash Flows is the amount reported as cash in the Statement of Financial Condition dated September 30, 2011, and represents non-segregated cash with the custodian and does not include short-term investments.

Final Net Asset Value for Fiscal Period

The times of the calculation of the Leveraged Funds’ and the VIX Funds’ final net asset value for creation and redemption of fund shares for the period ended September 30, 2011 were as follows. All times are Eastern Standard Time:

NAV Calculation Time NAV Calculation Date

Ultra Silver, UltraShort Silver

7:00 A.M. September 30

Ultra Gold, UltraShort Gold

10:00 A.M. September 30

Ultra Yen, UltraShort Yen

4:00 P.M. September 30

VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF

4:15 P.M. September 30

Although the Leveraged Funds’ and VIX Funds’ shares may continue to trade on secondary markets subsequent to the calculation of the final NAV, these times represent the final opportunity to transact in creation or redemption units for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Market value per share is determined at the close of the NYSE Arca and may be later than when the Funds’ NAV per share is calculated.

For financial reporting purposes, the Leveraged Funds and VIX Funds value transactions based upon the final closing price in their primary markets. Accordingly, the investment valuations in these financial statements differ from those used in the calculation of some Leveraged Funds’ and VIX Funds’ final creation/redemption NAV for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Investment Valuation

Short-term investments are valued at market price. Treasury securities having a maturity of greater than sixty days are valued at market price. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Derivatives ( e.g. , futures, swaps and forward agreements) are generally valued using independent sources and/or agreements with counterparties or other procedures as determined by the Sponsor. Futures contracts, except for those entered into by the Gold and Silver Funds, are generally valued at the last settled price on the applicable exchange on which that future trades. Futures contracts entered into by the Gold and Silver Funds are valued at the last sales price prior to the time at which the NAV per share of a Fund is determined. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. If there was no sale on that day, and for non-exchange-traded derivatives, the Sponsor may in its sole discretion choose to determine a fair value price as the basis for determining the market value of such position for such day. Such fair value prices would be generally determined based on available inputs about the current value of the underlying financial instrument or commodity and would be based on principles that the Sponsor deems fair and equitable so long as such principles are consistent with normal industry standards. When market closing prices are not available, the Sponsor may fair value an asset of a Fund pursuant to the policies the Sponsor has adopted, which are consistent with normal industry standards. Depending on the source and relevant significance of valuation inputs, these instruments may be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of an investment. While the Leveraged Funds’ and VIX Funds’ policy is intended to result in a calculation of a Leveraged Fund and VIX Fund’s NAV that fairly reflects investment values as of the time of pricing, the Leveraged Fund and VIX Fund cannot ensure that fair values determined by the Sponsor or persons acting at their direction would accurately reflect the price that a Fund could obtain for an investment if it were to dispose of that investment as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by a Leveraged Fund and VIX Fund may differ from the value that would be realized if the investments were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The disclosure requirements establish a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Funds (observable inputs); and (2) the Funds’ own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the disclosure requirements hierarchy are as follows:

Level I – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

-89-


Table of Contents

Level II – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level II assets include the following: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).

Level III – Unobservable pricing input at the measurement date for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

In some instances, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest input level that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair value measurements also require additional disclosure when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased, as well as when circumstances indicate that a transaction is not orderly.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Investment Transactions and Related Income

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. All such transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis and marked to market daily. Unrealized appreciation/depreciation on open contracts are reflected in the Statements of Financial Condition and changes in the unrealized appreciation/depreciation between periods are reflected in the Statements of Operations. Discounts on short-term securities purchased are amortized and reflected as Interest Income in the Statements of Operations.

Brokerage Commissions and Fees

Each Geared Fund pays its respective brokerage commissions, including applicable exchange fees, National Futures Association (“NFA”) fees, give-up fees, pit brokerage fees and other transaction related fees and expenses charged in connection with trading activities for each Fund’s investment in U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulated investments. The effects of trading spreads, financing costs/fees associated with Financial Instruments, and costs relating to the purchase of U.S. Treasury securities or similar high credit quality short-term fixed-income or similar securities would also be borne by the Funds. Brokerage commissions on futures contracts are recognized on a half-turn basis. For the period ended September 30, 2011, the Sponsor paid and is currently paying brokerage commissions on futures contracts for the VIX Funds by reimbursing the VIX Funds monthly for the brokerage commissions paid.

Table of Contents

Federal Income Tax

Each Fund is registered as a series of a Delaware statutory trust and is or will be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, no Fund expects to incur U.S. federal income tax liability; rather, each beneficial owner of a Fund’s Shares is or will be required to take into account its allocable share of its Fund’s income, gain, loss, deductions and other items for its Fund’s taxable year ending with or within the beneficial owner’s taxable year.

Management of the Funds has reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. On an ongoing basis, management will monitor its tax positions taken under the interpretation to determine if adjustments to conclusions are necessary based on factors including, but not limited to, further implementation of guidance expected from the Financial Accounting Standards Board and on-going analysis of tax law, regulation, and interpretations thereof.

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENTS

Short-Term Investments

The Funds may purchase U.S. Treasury Bills, agency securities, and other high-credit quality short-term fixed income or similar securities with original maturities of one year or less. A portion of these investments may be posted as collateral in connection with swap agreements and/or used as collateral for a Fund’s trading in futures and forward contracts.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments

In seeking to achieve each Fund’s investment objective, the Sponsor uses a mathematical approach to investing. Using this approach, the Sponsor determines the type, quantity and mix of investment positions that the Sponsor believes in combination should produce returns consistent with a Fund’s objective.

All open derivative positions at period-end for each Fund are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments and the notional value of these open positions relative to the shareholders’ equity of each Fund is generally representative of the notional value of open positions to shareholders’ equity throughout the reporting period for each respective Fund. The volume associated with derivative positions varies on a daily basis as each Fund transacts derivative contracts in order to achieve the appropriate exposure, as expressed in notional value, in comparison to shareholders’ equity consistent with each Fund’s investment objective.

Following is a description of the derivative instruments used by the Funds during the reporting period, including the primary underlying risk exposures related to each instrument type.

Futures Contracts

The Funds enter into futures contracts to gain exposure to changes in the value of an underlying index or commodity. A futures contract obligates the seller to deliver (and the purchaser to accept) the future delivery of a specified quantity and type of a commodity at a specified time and place. The contractual obligations of a buyer or seller may generally be satisfied by taking or making physical delivery of the underlying commodity, if applicable, or by making an offsetting sale or purchase of an identical futures contract on the same or linked exchange before the designated date of delivery, or by cash settlement at expiration of contract.

Upon entering into a futures contract, each Fund is required to deposit and maintain as collateral at least such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. The initial margin is segregated as cash balances with brokers for futures contracts, as disclosed in the Statements of Financial Condition, and is restricted as to its use. The VIX Funds maintain collateral at the broker in the form of U.S. Treasury securities. These securities are restricted as to their use and are denoted as such on the Schedules of Investments. Pursuant to the futures contract, each Fund generally agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the futures contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by each Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Each Fund will realize a gain or loss upon closing of a futures transaction.

-92-

Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (specifically commodity price risk or equity market volatility risk) and exposure to loss in excess of the amount of variation margin. The face or contract amounts reflect the extent of the total exposure each Fund has in the particular classes of instruments. Additional risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the futures contracts and the market value of the underlying index or commodity and the possibility of an illiquid market for a futures contract. With futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Funds since futures contracts are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures contracts, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

Swap Agreements

Certain of the Funds enter into swap agreements for purposes of pursuing their investment objectives or as a substitute for investing directly in (or shorting) commodities, or to create an economic hedge against a position. Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily with institutional investors for a specified period, ranging from a day to more than one year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns earned or realized on a particular predetermined investment, instrument or index in exchange for a fixed or floating rate of return in respect of a predetermined notional amount. In the case of futures contracts based indices, such as those used by the Commodity Index Funds, the reference interest rate is zero. The gross returns to be exchanged are calculated with respect to a notional amount and the benchmark returns to which the swap is linked. Swap agreements do not involve the delivery of underlying instruments.

Generally, swap agreements entered into by the Funds calculate and settle the obligations of the parties to the agreement on a “net basis” with a single payment. Consequently, each Fund’s current obligations (or rights) under a swap agreement will generally be equal only to the net amount to be paid or received under the agreement based on the relative values of such obligations (or rights) (the “net amount”). In a typical swap agreement entered into by an Ultra Fund, the Ultra Fund would be entitled to settlement payments in the event the benchmark increases and would be required to make payments to the swap counterparties in the event the benchmark decreases, adjusted for any transaction costs or trading spreads on the notional amount the Funds may pay. In a typical swap agreement entered into by an UltraShort Fund, the UltraShort Fund would be required to make payments to the swap counterparties in the event the benchmark increases and would be entitled to settlement payments in the event the benchmark decreases, adjusted for any transaction costs or trading spreads on the notional amount the Funds may pay.

The net amount of the excess, if any, of each Fund’s obligations over its entitlements with respect to each swap agreement is accrued on a daily basis and an amount of cash and/or securities having an aggregate NAV at least equal to such accrued excess is maintained in a segregated account by the Funds’ Custodian. Until a swap agreement is settled in cash, the gain or loss on the notional amount less any transaction costs or trading spreads payable by each Fund on the notional amount are recorded as “unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap agreements” and, when cash is exchanged, the gain or loss realized is recorded as “realized gains or losses on swap agreements.” Swap agreements are generally valued at the last settled price of the benchmark referenced Index.

The Trust, on behalf of a Fund, may enter into agreements with certain counterparties for derivative transactions. These agreements contain various conditions, events of default, termination events, covenants and representations. The triggering of certain events or the default on certain terms of the agreement could allow a party to terminate a transaction under the agreement and request immediate payment in an amount equal to the net positions owed the party under the agreement. This could cause a Fund to have to enter into a new transaction with the same counterparty, enter into a transaction with a different counterparty or seek to achieve its investment objective through any number of different investments or investment techniques.

Swap agreements involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (commodity price risk) and exposure to loss in excess of the unrealized gain/loss reflected. The notional amounts reflect the extent of the total investment exposure each Fund has under the swap agreement, which may exceed the NAV of each Fund. Additional risks associated with the use of swap agreements are imperfect correlation between movements in the notional amount and the price of the underlying reference index and the inability of

counterparties to perform. Each Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. A Fund will enter into swap agreements only with large, well-capitalized and well established financial institutions. The creditworthiness of each of the firms that is a party to a swap agreement is monitored by the Sponsor. The Sponsor may use various techniques to minimize credit risk including early termination and payment, using different counterparties, limiting the net amount due from any individual counterparty and generally requiring collateral to be posted by the counterparty in an amount approximately equal to that owed to the Funds. All of the outstanding swap agreements at September 30, 2011 contractually terminate within one month but may be terminated without penalty by either party daily. Upon termination, the Fund is entitled to pay or receive the “unrealized appreciation or depreciation” amount.

The Funds, as applicable, collateralize swap agreements by segregating or designating cash and/or certain securities as indicated on the Statements of Financial Condition or Schedules of Investments. Such collateral is held for the benefit of the counterparty in a segregated tri-party account at the Custodian to protect the counterparty against non-payment by the Funds. In the event of a default by the counterparty, the Funds will seek withdrawal of this collateral from the segregated account and may incur certain costs in exercising its right with respect to the collateral. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties, the Funds may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in a bankruptcy or other reorganizational proceeding. The Funds may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

The Funds remain subject to credit risk with respect to the amount they expect to receive from counterparties. However, the Funds have sought to mitigate these risks by generally requiring that the counterparties for each Fund agree to post collateral for the benefit of the Fund, marked to market daily, in an amount approximately equal to what the counterparty owes the Fund. In the event of the bankruptcy of a counterparty, the Fund will have direct access to the collateral received from the counterparty, generally as of the day prior to the bankruptcy, because there is a one day time lag between the Fund’s request for collateral and the delivery of such collateral. To the extent any such collateral is insufficient, the Funds will be exposed to counterparty risk as described above, including the possible delays in recovering amounts as a result of bankruptcy proceedings. As of September 30, 2011, the collateral posted by counterparties consisted of U.S. Treasury securities.

Forward Contracts

Certain of the Funds enter into forward contracts for purposes of pursuing their investment objectives and as a substitute for investing directly in (or shorting) commodities and/or currencies. A forward contract is an agreement between two parties to purchase or sell a specified quantity of a commodity or currency at or before a specified date in the future at a specified price. Forward contracts are typically traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets and all details of the contract are negotiated between the counterparties to the agreement. Accordingly, the forward contracts are valued by reference to the contracts traded in the OTC markets.

The contractual obligations of a buyer or seller may generally be satisfied by taking or making physical delivery of the underlying commodity or currency, establishing an opposite position in the contract and recognizing the profit or loss on both positions simultaneously on the delivery date or, in some instances, paying a cash settlement before the designated date of delivery. The forward contracts are adjusted by the daily fluctuation of the underlying commodity or currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains or losses until the contract settlement date.

Forward contracts are, in general, not cleared or guaranteed by a third party. The Funds may collateralize forward commodity contracts by segregating or designating cash and/or certain securities as indicated on their Statements of Financial Condition or Schedules of Investments. Such collateral is held for the benefit of the counterparty in a segregated tri-party account at the Custodian to protect the counterparty against non-payment by the Funds. In the event of a default by the counterparty, the Funds will seek withdrawal of this collateral from the segregated account and may incur certain costs in exercising its right with respect to the collateral. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties, the Funds may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in a bankruptcy or other reorganizational proceeding. The Funds may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

Table of Contents

The Funds remain subject to credit risk with respect to the amount they expect to receive from counterparties, as those amounts are not similarly collateralized by the counterparty. However, the Funds have sought to mitigate these risks by generally requiring that the counterparties for each Fund agree to post collateral for the benefit of the Fund, marked to market daily, in an amount approximately equal to what the counterparty owes the Fund. In the event of the bankruptcy of a counterparty, the Fund will have direct access to the collateral received from the counterparty, generally as of the day prior to the bankruptcy, because there is a one day time lag between the Fund’s request for collateral and the delivery of such collateral. To the extent any such collateral is insufficient, the Funds will be exposed to counterparty risk as described above, including the possible delays in recovering amounts as a result of bankruptcy proceedings. As of September 30, 2011, the collateral posted by counterparties consisted of U.S. Treasury securities.

Participants in trading foreign exchange forward contracts often do not require margin deposits, but rely upon internal credit limitations and their judgments regarding the creditworthiness of their counterparties.

A Fund will enter into forward contracts only with large, well-capitalized and well established financial institutions. The creditworthiness of each of the firms that is a party to a forward contract is monitored by the Sponsor.

NOTE 4 – AGREEMENTS

Management Fee

Each Geared Fund pays or will pay the Sponsor a Management Fee, monthly in arrears, in an amount equal to 0.95% per annum of its average daily NAV of such Fund. In the first year of the Leveraged Funds’ operations, the Sponsor did not charge its fee in an amount equal to the organization and offering costs. The Sponsor reimbursed each Leveraged Fund, if applicable, to the extent that its offering costs exceeded 0.95% of its average daily NAV of each Fund for the first year of operations. Each VIX Fund pays the Sponsor a Management Fee, monthly in arrears, in an amount equal to 0.85% per annum of its average daily NAV. The Sponsor will not charge its fee in the first year of operation of each New Fund (as defined below) in an amount equal to the offering costs. The Sponsor has agreed to reimburse each New Fund to the extent that its offering costs exceed the Management Fee for the first year of operations. The Management Fee is or will be paid in consideration of the Sponsor’s services as commodity pool operator and commodity trading advisor, and for managing the business and affairs of the Geared Funds and the VIX Funds. From the Management Fee, the Sponsor pays or will pay the fees and expenses of the Administrator, Custodian, Distributor, Transfer Agent and the licensors for the Commodity Index Funds (Dow Jones & Company, Inc. and UBS Securities LLC, together, “DJ-UBS”), the routine operational, administrative and other ordinary expenses of each Fund, and the normal and expected expenses incurred in connection with the continuous offering of Shares of each Fund after the commencement of its trading operations, including, but not limited to, expenses such as ongoing SEC registration fees not exceeding 0.021% per annum of a Fund and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) filing fees. For the period ended September 30, 2011, the Sponsor paid and is currently paying brokerage commissions on futures contracts for the VIX Funds. Each Leveraged Fund and VIX Fund incurs and pays, and each New Fund will incur and pay, its non-recurring and unusual fees and expenses.

The Administrator

The Sponsor and the Trust, for itself and on behalf of each Fund, has appointed Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH&Co.”) as the Administrator of the Funds, and the Sponsor, the Trust, on its own behalf and on behalf of each Fund, and BBH&Co. have entered into an Administrative Agency Agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) in connection therewith. Pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement and under the supervision and direction of the Sponsor and the Trust, BBH&Co. prepares and files certain regulatory filings on behalf of the Funds. BBH&Co. may also perform other services for the Funds pursuant to the Administration Agreement as mutually agreed upon by the Sponsor, the Trust and BBH&Co. from time to time. Pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement, BBH&Co. also serves as the Transfer Agent of the Funds. The Administrator’s fees are or will be paid on behalf of the Funds by the Sponsor.

The Custodian

BBH&Co. serves as Custodian of the Funds, and the Trust, on its own behalf and on behalf of each Fund, and BBH&Co. have entered into a Custodian Agreement in connection therewith. Pursuant to the terms of the Custodian Agreement, BBH&Co. is responsible for the holding and safekeeping of assets delivered to it by the Funds, and performing various administrative duties in accordance with instructions delivered to BBH&Co. by the Funds. The Custodian’s fees are or will be paid on behalf of the Funds by the Sponsor.

The Distributor

SEI Investments Distribution Co. (“SEI”), serves as Distributor of the Funds and assists the Sponsor and the Administrator with certain functions and duties relating to distribution and marketing, including taking creation and redemption orders, consulting with the marketing staff of the Sponsor and its affiliates with respect to compliance with the requirements of FINRA and/or the NFA in connection with marketing efforts, and reviewing and filing of marketing materials with FINRA and/or the NFA. SEI retains all marketing materials separately for each Fund, at c/o SEI, One Freedom Valley Drive, Oaks, PA 19456. The Sponsor, on behalf of each Fund, has entered into a Distribution Services Agreement with SEI.

Table of Contents

Routine Operational, Administrative and Other Ordinary Expenses

The Sponsor pays or will pay all of the routine operational, administrative and other ordinary expenses of each Fund generally, as determined by the Sponsor including, but not limited to, fees and expenses of the Administrator, Custodian, Distributor, Transfer Agent, DJ-UBS, accounting and auditing fees and expenses, tax preparation expenses, legal fees not in excess of $100,000 per annum, ongoing SEC registration fees not exceeding 0.021% per annum of the NAV of a Fund, FINRA filing fees, individual K-1 preparation and mailing fees not exceeding 0.10% per annum of the NAV of a Fund, and report preparation and mailing expenses.

Non-Recurring Fees and Expenses

Each Leveraged Fund and VIX Fund pays and each New Fund will pay all non-recurring and unusual fees and expenses, if any, as determined by the Sponsor. Non-recurring fees and expenses are fees and expenses such as legal claims and liabilities, litigation costs or indemnification or other material expenses which are not currently anticipated obligations of the Funds. Such fees and expenses are those that are non-recurring, unexpected or unusual in nature.

NOTE 5 – ORGANIZATION AND OFFERING COSTS

Organization costs are expensed as incurred and offering costs will be amortized by the Funds over a twelve month period on a straight-line basis. The Sponsor did not charge its Management Fee in the first year of operation of each Leveraged Fund in an amount equal to the organization and offering fees. The Sponsor reimbursed each Leveraged Fund if its organization and offering costs exceeded 0.95% of its average daily NAV for the first year of operations.

Offering costs on the VIX Funds and the New Funds will be amortized over a twelve month period on a straight-line basis. The Sponsor will not charge its Management Fee in the first year of operation of each VIX and New Fund in an amount equal to the offering costs. The Sponsor has agreed to reimburse each VIX and New Fund to the extent that its offering costs exceed 0.85% and 0.95%, respectively, of its average daily NAV for the first year of operations. At September 30, 2011, amounts payable for offering costs are reflected in the Statement of Financial Condition for each VIX Fund and each New Fund.

NOTE 6 – CREATION AND REDEMPTION OF CREATION UNITS

Each Leveraged Fund and VIX Fund issues and redeems Shares and each New Fund will issue and redeem shares from time to time, but only in one or more Creation Units. A Creation Unit is a block of 50,000 Shares of a Geared Fund and 25,000 Shares of a VIX Fund. Creation Units may be created or redeemed only by Authorized Participants. As a result of the reverse share splits as described in Note 1, certain redemptions as disclosed in the Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity reflect payment of fractional share balances on beneficial shareholder accounts.

Except when aggregated in Creation Units, the Shares are not redeemable securities. Retail investors, therefore, generally will not be able to purchase or redeem Shares directly from or with a Fund. Rather, most retail investors will purchase or sell Shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker. Thus, some of the information contained in these Notes to Financial Statements—such as references to the Transaction Fees imposed on purchases and redemptions—is not relevant to retail investors.

Transaction Fees on Creation and Redemption Transactions

The manner by which Creation Units are purchased or redeemed is dictated by the terms of the Authorized Participant Agreement and Authorized Participant Handbook. By placing a purchase order, an Authorized Participant agrees to: (1) deposit cash with BBH&Co., the custodian of the Funds (the “Custodian”); and (2) if permitted by the Sponsor in its sole discretion with respect to a VIX Fund, enter into or arrange for an exchange of futures contract for related position (“EFCRP”) or block trade with the VIX Fund whereby the Authorized Participant would also transfer to such Fund a number and type of exchange-traded VIX futures contracts at or near the closing settlement price for such contracts on the purchase order date.

Table of Contents

Authorized Participants, generally, pay a fixed transaction fee of $500 in connection with each order to create or redeem a Creation Unit in order to compensate BBH&Co. for services in processing the creation and redemption of Creation Units. The fixed transaction fee for the VIX Funds is currently being paid for by the Sponsor. Authorized Participants may be required to pay a variable transaction fee of up to 0.10% of the value of the Creation Unit that is purchased or redeemed. The current variable transaction fee is 0.022% for the Commodity and Commodity Index Funds. There is currently no variable transaction fee for the Currency and VIX Funds. Authorized Participants may sell the Shares included in the Creation Units they purchase from the Funds to other investors in the secondary market. Currently there are no additional fees being charged for related EFCRP or block trade transactions.

The transaction fees that are included in the Sale and/or Redemption of Shares on the Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity were as follows:

NOTE 8 – RISK

Correlation and Compounding Risk

The Geared Funds do not seek to achieve their stated investment objective over a period of time greater than one day because mathematical compounding prevents the Funds from achieving such results. Accordingly, results over periods of time greater than one day should not be expected to be a simple inverse correlation (-1x) or multiple (2x or -2x) of the period return of the corresponding benchmark and will likely differ significantly. Geared Funds seek daily results as measured from the calculation of one NAV to the next. The VIX Funds seek to achieve their stated investment objective both over a single day and over time.

While the Funds expect to meet their investment objectives, several factors may affect their ability to do so. Among these factors are: (1) a Fund’s expenses, including fees, transaction costs and the cost of the investment techniques employed by that Fund (such as costs related to the purchase, sale and storage of the commodities or currencies and the cost of leverage, all of which may be embedded in financial instruments used by a Fund); (2) less than all of the commodities in the relevant benchmark index being held by a Commodity Index Fund or its weighting of investment exposure to such commodities being different from that of the relevant benchmark index; (3) an imperfect correlation between the performance of instruments held by a Fund, such as swaps, futures contracts and/or forward contracts, and the performance of the applicable underlying indices, commodities or currencies in the cash market; (4) bid-ask spreads; (5) holding instruments traded in a market that has become illiquid or disrupted; (6) a Fund’s share prices being rounded to the nearest cent; (7) changes to a benchmark index that are not disseminated in advance; (8) the need to conform a Fund’s portfolio holdings to comply with investment restrictions or policies or regulatory or tax law requirements; (9) early and unanticipated closings of the markets on which the holdings of a Fund trade, resulting in the inability of the Fund to execute intended portfolio transactions.

A number of factors may affect a Geared Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with its benchmark, and there can be no guarantee that a Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. Failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent a Geared Fund from achieving its investment objective. A number of factors may adversely affect a Geared Fund’s correlation with its benchmark, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, costs and risks associated with the use of leveraged investment techniques, income items, accounting standards and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the commodities or Financial Instruments ( i.e ., commodity-based or currency-based instruments whose value is derived from the value of an underlying asset, rate or index) in which the Fund invests. A Geared Fund may not have investment exposure to all of the commodities or currencies in its underlying benchmark index, or its weighting of investment exposure to such commodities or currencies may be different from that of the index. In addition, a Geared Fund may invest in commodities or currencies or Financial Instruments not included in the index underlying its benchmark. A Geared Fund may be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being over- or under-exposed to its benchmark. Activities surrounding annual index reconstitutions and other index rebalancing or reconstitution events may hinder a Geared Fund’s ability to meet its daily investment objective on or around that day. Each Geared Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep leverage consistent with its daily investment objective.

Compounding affects all investments, but has a more significant impact on a Geared Fund. The Geared Funds are “geared” in the sense that they have investment objectives to match a multiple, the inverse or a multiple of the inverse of the performance of an index on a given day. These Funds are subject to all of the correlation risks described above. In addition, there is a special form of correlation risk that derives from such Funds’ having a single day investment objective in combination with the use of leverage, which is that for periods greater than one day, the effect of compounding may cause the performance of a Fund to be either greater than or less than the index performance (or the inverse of the index performance) times the stated multiple in the Fund objective, before accounting for fees and fund expenses. This effect can be even more significant in the case of the Leveraged Funds due to the use of leverage. The Geared Funds are designed to provide leveraged ( e.g. 2x), inverse ( e.g. -1x) or inverse leveraged ( e.g. -2x) results on a daily basis (before fees and expenses). Investors should monitor their holdings consistent with their strategies, as frequently as daily.

Table of Contents

Counterparty Risk

A Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from counterparties to Financial Instruments entered into by the Fund. The Funds structure the agreements such that either party can terminate the contract without penalty prior to the termination date. A Fund may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. A Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in a bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding and a Fund may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances. The Funds have sought to mitigate risks by generally requiring that the counterparties for each Fund agree to post collateral for the benefit of the Fund, marked to market daily, in an amount approximately equal to what the counterparty owes the Fund. In the event of the bankruptcy of a counterparty, the Fund will have direct access to the collateral received from the counterparty, generally as of the day prior to the bankruptcy, because there is a one day time lag between the Fund’s request for collateral and the delivery of such collateral. To the extent any such collateral is insufficient, the Funds will be exposed to counterparty risk as described above, including the possible delays in recovering amounts as a result of bankruptcy proceedings. The Funds typically enter into transactions with counterparties whose credit rating, at the time of the transaction, is investment grade, as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or, if unrated, judged by the Sponsor to be of comparable quality.

Leverage Risk

The Funds use investment techniques that may be considered aggressive, including the use of futures contracts, swap agreements and forward agreements. The Funds’ investment in Financial Instruments may involve a small investment relative to the amount of investment exposure assumed and may result in losses exceeding the amounts invested. Such instruments, particularly when used to create leverage, may expose the Funds to potentially dramatic changes (losses or gains) in the value of the instruments.

Liquidity Risk

In certain circumstances, such as the disruption of the orderly markets for the commodities or Financial Instruments in which a Fund invests, a Fund might not be able to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Sponsor. Such a situation may prevent a Fund from limiting losses, realizing gains or achieving a high correlation or inverse correlation with its underlying index.

“Contango” and “Backwardation” Risk

In Funds that hold futures contracts, as the futures contracts near expiration, they are generally replaced by contracts that have a later expiration. Thus, for example, a contract purchased and held in August 2011 may specify an October 2011 expiration. For an Ultra Fund and a VIX Fund, as that contract nears expiration, it may be replaced by selling the October 2011 contract and purchasing the contract expiring in December 2011. This process is referred to as “rolling.” Rolling may have a positive or negative impact on performance. For example, historically, the prices of certain types of futures contracts have frequently been higher for contracts with shorter-term expirations than for contracts with longer-term expirations, which is referred to as “backwardation.” In these circumstances, absent other factors, the sale of the October 2011 contract would take place at a price that is higher than the price at which the December 2011 contract is purchased, thereby creating a gain in connection with rolling. While certain types of futures contracts have historically exhibited consistent periods of backwardation, backwardation will likely not exist in these markets at all times. The presence of contango (where prices of contracts are higher in the distant delivery months than in the nearer delivery months due to the costs of long-term storage of a physical commodity prior to delivery or other factors) in certain futures contracts at the time of rolling would be expected to adversely affect an Ultra Fund or a VIX Fund that invests in such futures and positively affect an UltraShort Fund or Short Fund that invests in such futures. Similarly, the presence of backwardation in certain futures contracts at the time of rolling such contracts would be expected to adversely affect the Short Funds and UltraShort Funds and positively affect the Ultra Funds and existing VIX Funds.

Table of Contents

Since the introduction of VIX futures contracts, there have frequently been periods where VIX futures prices reflect higher expected volatility levels further out in time. This can result in a loss from “rolling” the VIX futures to maintain the constant weighted average maturity of the VIX Futures Index. Losses from exchanging a lower priced VIX future for a higher priced longer-term future in the rolling process would adversely affect the value of each VIX Futures Index and the VIX Funds and, accordingly, decrease the return of the VIX Funds.

Gold and silver historically exhibit persistent “contango” markets rather than backwardation. Natural gas, like crude oil, moves in and out of backwardation and contango but historically has been in contango most commonly. It is generally believed this is because the market needs to build inventories for most of the year in order to have enough storage to make it through a normal winter. Periods of backwardation are typically thought to be caused by demand shocks or supply shortages such as an unusually cold winter or a hurricane.

NOTE 9 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Trust and certain principals of the Sponsor are defendants (along with several other parties) in a consolidated class action lawsuit styled In re ProShares Trust Securities Litigation, Civ. No. 09-cv-6935, filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint, as amended, alleges that the defendants violated Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 by including untrue statements of material fact and omitting material facts in the Registration Statement for one or more ProShares ETFs, allegedly failing to adequately disclose the Funds’ investment objectives and risks. The six Funds of the Trust named in the complaint are ProShares Ultra Silver, ProShares UltraShort Gold, ProShares Ultra Gold, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil and ProShares UltraShort Silver. The Trust believes the complaint is without merit and that the anticipated outcome will not adversely impact the operation of the Trust or any of its Funds. Accordingly, no loss contingency has been recorded in the balance sheet and the amount of loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management has evaluated the possibility of subsequent events existing in the Trust’s and the Funds’ financial statements through the date the financial statements were issued. The subsequent events were as follows:

On October 3, 2011, ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures ETF and ProShares Short VIX Short-Term Futures ETF commenced investment operations. On October 4, 2011, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Natural Gas and ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Natural Gas commenced investment operations.

On September 27, 2011, the Trust announced a 1-for-3 reverse split of the shares of beneficial interest of ProShares UltraShort Yen (NYSE Arca symbol “YCS”). The reverse split was effective prior to the opening of trading on NYSE Arca on October 13, 2011.

The reverse split was effective for shareholders of record after the close of the markets on October 12, 2011. The Fund traded at its post-split price on October 13, 2011. The ticker symbol for the Fund did not change, and it will continue to trade on NYSE Arca.

The reverse split was applied retroactively for all periods presented, reducing the number of shares outstanding for the ProShares UltraShort Yen Fund, and resulted in a proportionate increase in the price per share and per share information of the ProShares UltraShort Yen Fund. Therefore, the reverse split did not change the aggregate net asset value of a shareholder’s investment at the time of the split.

On September 27, 2011, the Trust announced a 2-for-1 split of the shares of beneficial interest of ProShares Ultra Silver (NYSE Arca symbol “AGQ”). The split was effective prior to the opening of trading on NYSE Arca on October 13, 2011.

The split was effective for shareholders of record after the close of the markets on October 10, 2011, payable after the close of the markets on October 12, 2011. The Fund traded at its post-split price on October 13, 2011. The ticker symbol for the Fund did not change, and it will continue to trade on NYSE Arca.

The split was applied retroactively for all periods presented, increasing the number of shares outstanding for ProShares Ultra Silver, and resulted in a proportionate decrease in the price per share and per share information of ProShares Ultra Silver. Therefore, the split did not change the aggregate net asset value of a shareholder’s investment at the time of the split.

Introduction

ProShares Trust II (formerly known as the Commodities and Currencies Trust) (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust formed on October 9, 2007 and currently organized into separate series (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). The following fourteen series of the Trust, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares Ultra Gold, ProShares UltraShort Gold, ProShares Ultra Silver, ProShares UltraShort Silver, ProShares Ultra Euro, ProShares UltraShort Euro, ProShares Ultra Yen and ProShares UltraShort Yen (each, a “Leveraged Fund” and collectively, the “Leveraged Funds”), ProShares VIX Short-Term Futures ETF and ProShares VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF (each, a “VIX Fund” and collectively, the “VIX Funds”) issue common units of beneficial interest (“Shares”), which represent units of fractional undivided beneficial interest in and ownership of only that Leveraged or VIX Fund. The Shares of each Leveraged and VIX Fund are listed on the New York Stock Exchange Archipelago (“NYSE Arca”). The Trust has also registered shares for ten additional series: ProShares Short DJ-UBS Natural Gas and ProShares Short Gold (each, a “Short Fund” and collectively, the “Short Funds”), ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Natural Gas, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Natural Gas (each, a “New Natural Gas Fund” and collectively, the “New Natural Gas Funds”), ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, ProShares Short VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, ProShares UltraShort VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, ProShares Ultra VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF, ProShares Short VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF and ProShares UltraShort VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF (each, a “New VIX Fund” and collectively, the “New VIX Funds”). The Short Funds, the New Natural Gas Funds and the New VIX Funds are collectively referred to herein as the “New Funds”. As of September 30, 2011, each of the Short Funds had seed capital of $200, but neither of the Short Funds had commenced investment operations, and each of the New Natural Gas Funds and the New VIX Funds had seed capital of $400, but none of the New Natural Gas Funds or the New VIX Funds had commenced investment operations; therefore, the Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not include Schedules of Investments, Statements of Operations, Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity or Statements of Cash Flows for the New Funds. The New Funds, together with the Leveraged Funds, are referred to as the “Geared Funds” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Trust had no operations prior to November 24, 2008 other than matters relating to its organization, the registration of each series under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the sale and issuance to ProShare Capital Management LLC (the “Sponsor”) of fourteen Shares of each Leveraged Fund at an aggregate purchase price of $350 in each of the Funds.

Eight of the Funds, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares Ultra Euro, ProShares UltraShort Euro, ProShares Ultra Yen and ProShares UltraShort Yen, commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on November 25, 2008. Four of the Funds, ProShares Ultra Gold, ProShares UltraShort Gold, ProShares Ultra Silver and ProShares UltraShort Silver, commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on December 3, 2008. The VIX Funds commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on January 3, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the New Funds had not yet commenced trading.

ProShare Capital Management LLC serves as the Trust’s Sponsor (the “Sponsor”), commodity pool operator and commodity trading advisor. Wilmington Trust Company serves as the Trustee of the Trust (the “Trustee”). The Funds are commodity pools, as defined under the Commodity Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) and are operated by the Sponsor, a commodity pool operator registered with the CFTC. The Trust is not an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Table of Contents

Groups of Funds are collectively referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in several different ways. References to “Ultra Funds,” “Short Funds” or “UltraShort Funds” refer to the different Funds based upon their investment objectives, but without distinguishing among the Funds’ benchmarks. References to “Commodity Index Funds,” “Commodity Funds” and “Currency Funds” refer to the different Funds according to their general benchmark categories without distinguishing among the Funds’ investment objectives or Fund-specific benchmarks. References to “VIX Funds” refer to the different Funds based upon their investment objective and their general benchmark categories.

Each “Ultra” Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to twice (2x) the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark, as measured from the calculation of one NAV to the next. Each “Short” Fund will seek daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to the inverse (-1x) of the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Each “UltraShort” Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to twice the inverse (-2x) of the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Each of the Geared Funds generally invests or will invest in Financial Instruments ( i.e. , commodity-based, currency-based or equity market volatility-based instruments whose value is derived from the value of an underlying asset, rate or index, including futures contracts and options on futures contracts, swap agreements, forward contracts and other commodity-based or currency-based options contracts) as a substitute for investing directly in commodities, currencies or equity market volatility products in order to gain exposure to the commodity index, currency benchmark, commodity, currency or to an equity market volatility index. The Financial Instruments in which ProShares Short DJ-UBS Natural Gas will invest are limited to futures contracts. Financial Instruments also are used to produce economically “leveraged” or “inverse” investment results for the Funds. Each “VIX Fund” seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that match the performance of a benchmark. Each VIX Fund obtains exposure to its benchmark by investing in futures contracts (“VIX futures contracts”) based on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”) Volatility Index (the “VIX”).

Each Geared Fund seeks investment results for a single day only, not for longer periods. This is different from most exchange-traded funds and means that the return of such Fund for a period longer than a single trading day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from 2x, -1x or -2x of the return of the index to which such Fund is benchmarked for that period. In periods of higher market volatility, the volatility of the benchmark may be at least as important to a Geared Fund’s return for the period as the return of the benchmark. Geared Funds are riskier than similarly benchmarked exchange-traded funds that are not geared. Accordingly, these funds may not be suitable for all investors and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking daily inverse investment results. Shareholders should actively monitor their investments.

The VIX Funds seek to achieve their stated investment objective both over a single day and over time.

ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil and ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil each have a benchmark designed to track the performance of commodity futures contracts. The daily performance of these indexes and the corresponding funds will likely be very different from the daily performance of the price of the related physical commodities.

Each Geared Fund continuously offers and redeems or will offer and redeem its Shares in blocks of 50,000 Shares and each VIX Fund continuously offers and redeems shares in blocks of 25,000 Shares (each such block a “Creation Unit”). Only Authorized Participants may purchase and redeem Shares from a Fund and then only in Creation Units. An Authorized Participant is an entity that has entered into an Authorized Participant Agreement with one or more of the Funds. Shares of the Funds are offered to Authorized Participants in Creation Units at each Fund’s respective net asset value per Share (“NAV”). Authorized Participants may then offer to the public, from time to time, Shares from any Creation Unit they create at a per-Share market price that varies depending on, among other factors, the trading price of the Shares of each Fund on the NYSE Arca, the NAV and the supply of and demand for the Shares at the time of the offer. Shares from the same Creation Unit may be offered at different times and may have different offering prices based upon the above factors. The form of Authorized Participant Agreement and related Authorized Participant Handbook set forth the terms and conditions under which an Authorized Participant may purchase or redeem a Creation Unit. Authorized Participants do not receive from any Fund, the Sponsor, or any of their affiliates, any underwriting fees or compensation in connection with their sale of Shares to the public.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In order to collateralize derivatives positions in indices, commodities or currencies, a significant portion of the NAV of each Fund is held in cash and/or U.S. Treasury Securities, agency securities, or other high credit quality short-term fixed-income or similar securities (such as shares of money market funds, bank deposits, bank money market accounts, certain variable rate-demand notes and repurchase agreements collateralized by government securities, whether denominated in U.S. dollars or the applicable foreign currency with respect to a Currency Fund). A portion of these investments may be posted as collateral in connection with swap agreements and each Fund’s trading in futures and forward contracts. The percentage that U.S. Treasury bills and other short-term fixed-income securities bear to the shareholders’ equity of each Fund varies from period to period as the market values of the underlying swaps, futures contracts and forward contracts change. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, each of the Leveraged and VIX Funds earned interest income as follows:

Each Fund’s underlying swaps, futures and forward contracts, as the case may be, are subject to periods of illiquidity because of market conditions, regulatory considerations and other reasons. For example, swaps and forward contracts are not traded on an exchange, do not have uniform terms and conditions, and in general are not transferable without the consent of the counterparty. In the case of futures contracts, commodity exchanges may limit fluctuations in certain futures contract prices during a single day by regulations referred to as “daily limits.” During a single day, no futures trades may be executed at prices beyond the daily limit. Once the price of a futures contract has increased or decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit, positions in such futures contracts can neither be taken nor liquidated unless the traders are willing to effect trades at or within the limit. Futures contract prices have occasionally moved the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading. Such market conditions could prevent a Fund from promptly liquidating its futures positions.

Entry into swap agreements or forward contracts may further impact liquidity because these contractual agreements are executed “off-exchange” between private parties and, therefore, the time required to offset or “unwind” these positions may be greater than that for exchange-traded instruments. This potential delay could be exacerbated to the extent a counterparty is not a United States person.

The Trust is unaware of any other trends, demands, conditions or events that are reasonably likely to result in material changes to the Trust’s liquidity needs.

Because each Fund may enter into swaps and may trade futures and forward contracts, its capital is at risk due to changes in the value of these contracts (market risk) or the inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of the contracts (credit risk).

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the decrease in the Fund’s NAV resulted in part from a decrease from 500,014 outstanding Shares at June 30, 2011 to 450,014 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2011. The decrease in the Fund’s NAV resulted primarily from the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index. By comparison, during the three months ended September 30, 2010 the decrease in the Fund’s NAV resulted from a decrease from 550,014 outstanding Shares at June 30, 2010 to 350,014 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2010. The decrease in the Fund’s NAV was offset by the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, the Fund’s daily performance had a statistical correlation over 0.99 to 2x of the daily performance of its benchmark. The Fund’s per share NAV decrease of 22.1% for the period ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the increase of 23.3% for the period ended September 30, 2010, was primarily due to a depreciation in the value of the assets of the Fund during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on July 26, 2011 at $36.90 per Share and reached its low for the period on September 30, 2011 at $26.02 per Share. By comparison, during the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on September 30, 2010 at $27.58 per Share and reached its low for the period on July 6, 2010 at $21.73 per Share.

The benchmark’s decline of 11.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the benchmark’s rise of 11.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2010, can be attributed to a depreciation of the underlying components of the index, primarily Crude Oil, during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the decrease in the Fund’s NAV resulted from the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of silver bullion as measured by the U.S. Dollar fixing price for delivery in London. The decrease in the Fund’s NAV was offset by an increase from 10,500,028 outstanding Shares at June 30, 2011 to 12,900,028 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2011. By comparison, during the three months ended September 30, 2010, the increase in the Fund’s NAV resulted from the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of silver bullion as measured by the U.S. Dollar fixing price for delivery in London. The increase in the Fund’s NAV was offset by a decrease from 5,700,028 outstanding Shares at June 30, 2010 to 4,700,028 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2010.

The Fund’s per share NAV decrease of 34.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the increase of 34.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2010, was primarily due to a depreciation in the value of the assets of the Fund during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the decrease in the Fund’s NAV resulted from a decrease from 1,025,005 outstanding Shares at June 30, 2011 to 250,005 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2011. The decrease in the Fund’s NAV was offset by the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to the daily performance of the S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures Index.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Fund’s daily performance had a statistical correlation over 0.99 of the daily performance of its benchmark.

Table of Contents

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the decrease in the Fund’s NAV resulted primarily from a decrease from 500,014 outstanding Shares at December 31, 2010 to 450,014 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2011. The decrease in the Fund’s NAV also resulted in part from the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index. By comparison, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the decrease in the Fund’s NAV resulted from a decrease from 700,014 outstanding Shares at December 31, 2009 to 350,014 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2010. The decrease in the Fund’s NAV was offset by the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, the Fund’s daily performance had a statistical correlation over 0.99 to 2x of the daily performance of its benchmark. The Fund’s per share NAV decrease of 28.5% for the period ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the decrease of 2.2% for the period ended September 30, 2010, was primarily due to a relatively higher depreciation in the value of the assets of the Fund during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on April 29, 2011 at $41.87 per Share and reached its low for the period on September 30, 2011 at $26.02 per Share. By comparison, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on January 6, 2010 at $30.58 per Share and reached its low for the period on June 4, 2010 at $21.14 per Share.

The benchmark’s decline of 13.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the benchmark’s rise of 0.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, can be attributed to a depreciation of the underlying components of the index, primarily Crude Oil, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

By comparison, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the increase in the Fund’s NAV resulted from the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of gold bullion as measured by the U.S. Dollar p.m. fixing price for delivery in London. The increase in the Fund’s NAV was offset by a decrease from 3,550,014 outstanding Shares at December 31, 2009 to 3,350,014 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2010.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, the Fund’s daily performance had a statistical correlation over 0.99 to 2x of the daily performance of its benchmark. The Fund’s per share NAV increase of 25.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the increase of 38.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was primarily due to a relatively lower appreciation in the value of the assets of the Fund during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on September 6, 2011 at $120.56 per Share and reached its low for the period on January 28, 2011 at $60.68 per Share. By comparison, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on September 29, 2010 at $60.85 per Share and reached its low for the period on February 5, 2010 at $41.35 per Share.

The benchmark’s rise of 15.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the benchmark’s rise of 20.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, can be attributed to a relatively lower increase in the price of spot gold in U.S. Dollar terms during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the increase in the Fund’s NAV resulted from the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of the spot price of the Japanese Yen versus the U.S. Dollar. There was no net change in the Fund’s outstanding Shares from December 31, 2010 to September 30, 2011. By comparison, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the increase in the Fund’s NAV resulted primarily from an increase from 150,014 outstanding Shares at December 31, 2009 to 200,014 outstanding Shares at September 30, 2010. The increase in the Fund’s NAV also resulted in part from the cumulative effect of the Fund seeking daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to 2x of the daily performance of the spot price of the Japanese Yen versus the U.S. Dollar.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, the Fund’s daily performance had a statistical correlation over 0.99 to 2x of the daily performance of its benchmark. The Fund’s per share NAV increase of 9.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the increase of 21.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to a relatively lower appreciation in the value of the assets held by the Fund during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on September 22, 2011 at $37.40 per Share and reached its low for the period on April 6, 2011 at $30.09 per Share. By comparison, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Fund’s per share NAV reached its high for the period on September 14, 2010 at $32.21 per Share and reached its low for the period on May 3, 2010 at $25.14 per Share.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

As of November 9, 2011, the Funds have not used, nor do they expect to use in the future, special purpose entities to facilitate off-balance sheet financing arrangements and have no loan guarantee arrangements or off-balance sheet arrangements of any kind other than agreements entered into in the normal course of business, which may include indemnification provisions related to certain risks service providers undertake in performing services which are in the best interests of the Funds. While each Fund’s exposure under such indemnification provisions cannot be estimated, these general business indemnifications are not expected to have a material impact on a Fund’s financial position.

Management fee payments made to the Sponsor are calculated as a fixed percentage of each Fund’s NAV. As such, the Sponsor cannot anticipate the amount of payments that will be required under these arrangements for future periods as NAVs are not known until a future date. The agreement with the Sponsor may be terminated by either party upon 30 days written notice to the other party. One officer of the Trust also serves as an officer and owner of the Sponsor.

Market Risk

Trading in futures contracts involves each Fund entering into contractual commitments to purchase or sell a commodity underlying the Fund’s benchmark at a specified date and price, should it hold such futures contract into the deliverable period. Should a Fund enter into a contractual commitment to sell a physical commodity, it would be required to make delivery of that commodity at the contract price and then repurchase the contract at prevailing market prices or settle in cash. Since the repurchase price to which the value of a commodity can rise is unlimited, entering into commitments to sell commodities would expose a Fund to theoretically unlimited risk.

Each Fund’s exposure to market risk is influenced by a number of factors, including the liquidity of the markets in which the contracts are traded and the relationships among the contracts held. The inherent uncertainty of each Fund’s trading as well as the development of drastic market occurrences could ultimately lead to a loss of all or substantially all of investors’ capital.

Table of Contents

Credit Risk

When a Fund enters into swap agreements, futures contracts or forward contracts, the Fund is exposed to credit risk that the counterparty to the contract will not meet its obligations.

The counterparty for futures contracts traded on United States and most foreign futures exchanges is the clearing house associated with the particular exchange. In general, clearing houses are backed by their corporate members who may be required to share in the financial burden resulting from the nonperformance by one of their members and, as such, should significantly reduce this credit risk. In cases where the clearing house is not backed by the clearing members ( i.e ., some foreign exchanges, which may become applicable in the future), it may be backed by a consortium of banks or other financial institutions.

Swap and forward agreements are contracted for directly with counterparties. There can be no assurance that any counterparty, clearing member or clearing house will meet its obligations to a Fund.

Swap agreements do not generally involve the delivery of underlying assets either at the outset of a transaction or upon settlement. Accordingly, if the counterparty to a swap agreement defaults, the Fund’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive, if any. Swap counterparty risk is generally limited to the amount of any unrealized gains, although in the event of a counterparty bankruptcy, there could be delays and costs associated with recovery collateral posted in segregated tri-party accounts at the Fund’s custodian bank.

Forward agreements do not involve the delivery of assets at the onset of a transaction, but may be settled physically in the underlying asset if such contracts are held to expiration, particularly in the case of currency forwards. Thus, prior to settlement, if the counterparty to a forward contract defaults, a Fund’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive, if any. However, if physically settled forwards are held until expiration (presently, there is no plan to do this), at the time of settlement, a Fund may be at risk for the full notional value of the forward contracts depending on the type of settlement procedures used.

The Sponsor attempts to minimize certain of these market and credit risks by normally:

executing and clearing trades with creditworthy counterparties, as determined by the Sponsor;

limiting the outstanding amounts due from counterparties to the Funds;

not posting margin directly with a counterparty;

generally requiring that the counterparty posts collateral in amounts approximately equal to that owed to the Funds, as marked to market;

limiting the amount of margin or premium posted at a futures commission merchant (“FCM”); and

ensuring that deliverable contracts are not held to such a date when delivery of the underlying asset could be called for.

The FCM for each Fund, in accepting orders for the purchase or sale of domestic futures contracts, is required by CFTC regulations to separately account for and segregate as belonging to the Fund, all assets of the Fund relating to domestic futures trading, and the FCM is not allowed to commingle such assets with other assets of the FCM. In addition, CFTC regulations also require the FCM to hold in a secure account assets of each Fund related to foreign futures trading.

The Funds could lose money if the issuer of a debt security is unable to meet its financial obligations or goes bankrupt. The Funds could also lose money if the issuer of a debt security in which it has a short position is upgraded or generally improves its standing. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength or in an issuer’s or debt security’s credit rating also may affect a security’s value and thus have an impact on a Fund’s performance. Credit risk usually applies to most debt securities, but generally is not a factor for U.S. government obligations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Trust’s and the Funds’ critical accounting policies are as follows:

Preparation of the financial statements and related disclosures in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the application of appropriate accounting rules and guidance, as well as the use of estimates. The Trust’s and the Funds’ application of these policies involves judgments and actual results may differ from the estimates used.

Each Fund has significant exposure to Financial Instruments. The Funds hold a significant portion of their assets in swaps, futures or forward contracts, all of which are recorded on a trade date basis and at fair value in the financial statements, with changes in fair value reported in the Statements of Operations.

The use of fair value to measure Financial Instruments, with related unrealized gains or losses recognized in earnings in each period, is fundamental to the Trust’s and the Funds’ financial statements. The fair value of a Financial Instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price).

For financial reporting purposes, the Leveraged Funds and the VIX Funds value transactions based upon the final closing price in their primary markets. Accordingly, the investment valuations in these financial statements differ from those used in the calculation of some Leveraged Funds’ and VIX Funds’ final creation/redemption NAV for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Short-term investments are valued at market price. Treasury securities having a maturity of greater than sixty days are valued at market price.

Derivatives ( e.g. , futures, swaps and forward agreements) are generally valued using independent sources and/or agreements with counterparties or other procedures as determined by the Sponsor. Futures contracts, except for those entered into by the Gold and Silver Funds, are generally valued at the last settled price on the applicable exchange on which that future trades. Futures contracts entered into by the Gold and Silver Funds are valued at the last sales price prior to the time at which the NAV per Share of a Fund is determined. If there was no sale on that day, and for non-exchange-traded derivatives, the Sponsor may in its sole discretion choose to determine a fair value price as the basis for determining the market value of such position for such day. Such fair value prices would be generally determined based on available inputs about the current value of the underlying financial instrument or commodity and would be based on principles that the Sponsor deems fair and equitable so long as such principles are consistent with normal industry standards. When market closing prices are not available, the Sponsor may value an asset of a Fund pursuant to the policies the Sponsor has adopted, which are consistent with normal industry standards.

Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of an investment. While each Leveraged and VIX Fund’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Leveraged or the VIX Fund’s NAV that fairly reflects investment values as of the time of pricing, the Leveraged and the VIX Funds cannot ensure that fair values determined by the Sponsor or persons acting at their direction would accurately reflect the price that the Leveraged or the VIX Fund could obtain for an investment if it were to dispose of that investment as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by the Leveraged or the VIX Fund may differ from the value that would be realized if the investments were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.

The Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. See Note 2 in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.

Discounts on short-term securities purchased are amortized and reflected as Interest Income in the Statements of Operations.

Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gain (loss) on open positions are determined on a specific identification basis and recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur, respectively.

Each Geared Fund pays its respective brokerage commissions, including applicable exchange fees, NFA fees, give-up fees, pit brokerage fees and other transaction related fees and expenses charged in connection with trading activities for each Fund’s investment in U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulated investments. Brokerage commissions on futures contracts are recognized on a half-turn basis.

Commodity Price Sensitivity

Each of the Commodity Funds and the Commodity Index Funds is exposed to commodity price risk through its holdings of Financial Instruments. The following tables provide information about each of the Commodity Funds’ and the Commodity Index Funds’ Financial Instruments, which were sensitive to commodity price risk. As of September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, each of the Commodity Funds and the Commodity Index Funds’ positions were as follows:

ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity :

As of September 30, 2011, the ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity Fund was exposed to commodity price risk through its holding of swap agreements linked to the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index.

Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index

UBS AG Long 140.1750 16,811,409

The September 30, 2011 swap notional amount is calculated by multiplying units times the closing level of the Index. The notional amount will increase (decrease) proportionally with increases (decreases) in the level of the Index. Additional gains (losses) associated with these contracts will be equal to any such subsequent increases (decreases) in notional amount, before accounting for spreads or financing costs associated with the swaps. The Fund will generally attempt to adjust its positions in Financial Instruments each day to have $2.00 of exposure to the Index for every $1.00 of net assets. While the above information properly represents the then current commodity price risk and is adequate for estimating the following day’s gains or losses, estimates of future values over longer periods should take the Fund’s daily rebalancing efforts into account. Future period returns, before fees and expenses, cannot be estimated simply by estimating the return of the Index and multiplying by two. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding performance for periods longer than one day. Swap counterparty risk is generally limited to the amount of any unrealized gains, although in the event of a counterparty bankruptcy, there could be delays and costs associated with recovering collateral posted in segregated tri-party accounts at the Fund’s custodian bank.

As of September 30, 2010, the ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Commodity Fund was exposed to commodity price risk through its holding of swap agreements linked to the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index.

Future period returns, before fees and expenses, cannot be estimated simply by estimating the return of the Index and multiplying by negative two. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding performance for periods longer than one day. Swap counterparty risk is generally limited to the amount of any unrealized gains, although in the event of a counterparty bankruptcy, there could be delays and costs associated with recovering collateral posted in segregated tri-party accounts at the Fund’s custodian bank.

As of September 30, 2010, the ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Commodity Fund was exposed to inverse commodity price risk through its holding of swap agreements linked to the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index.

While the above information properly represents the then current commodity price risk and is adequate for estimating the following day’s gains or losses, estimates of future values over longer periods should take the Fund’s daily rebalancing efforts into account. Future period returns, before fees and expenses, cannot be estimated simply by estimating the return of the Index and multiplying by negative two. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding performance for periods longer than one day. Counterparty risk related to the forward agreements is generally limited to the amount of any unrealized gains, although in the event of a counterparty bankruptcy, there could be delays and costs associated with recovering collateral posted in segregated tri-party accounts at the Fund’s custodian bank.

Qualitative Disclosure

As described above in Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, it is the investment objective of each Leveraged Fund to seek daily investment results, before fees and expenses, which match twice (2x) the daily performance, whether positive or negative, of its corresponding benchmark. Each Ultra Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that match twice (2x) the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Each Short Fund will seek daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that match the inverse (-1x) of the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Each UltraShort Fund seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) that match twice the inverse (-2x) of the daily performance of its corresponding benchmark. Each VIX Fund seeks investment results (before fees and expenses) that match the performance of a benchmark. Daily performance is measured from the calculation of one NAV to the next. The Geared Funds do not seek to achieve these stated investment objectives over a period of time greater than one day because mathematical compounding prevents the Geared Funds from achieving such results. Performance over longer periods of time will be influenced not only by the cumulative period performance of the corresponding benchmark but equally by the intervening volatility of the benchmark as well as fees and expenses, including costs associated with the use of Financial Instruments such as financing costs and trading spreads. Future period returns, before fees and expenses, cannot be estimated simply by estimating the percent change in the corresponding benchmark and multiplying by two or negative two. Investors should monitor their ProShares holdings consistent with their strategies, as frequently as daily. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding performance for periods longer than one day.

Primary Market Risk Exposure

Each Fund’s investment objective and corresponding benchmark defines the primary market risks that the Funds are exposed to. For example, the primary market risk that the ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil and the ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil Funds are exposed to are direct and inverse exposure, respectively, to the price of crude oil as measured by the return of holding and periodically rolling crude oil futures contracts (the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index and its sub-indexes are based on the price of rolling futures positions, rather than on the cash price for immediate delivery of the corresponding commodity).

Each Fund’s exposure to market risk is further influenced by a number of factors, including the liquidity of the markets in which the contracts are traded and the relationships among the contracts held. The inherent uncertainty of each Fund’s trading as well as the development of drastic market occurrences could ultimately lead to a loss of all or substantially all of investors’ capital.

As described above in Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, trading in certain futures contracts or forward agreements involves each Fund entering into contractual commitments to purchase or sell a commodity underlying a Fund’s benchmark at a specified date and price, should it hold such futures contracts or forward agreements into the deliverable period. Should a Fund enter into a contractual commitment to sell a physical commodity, it is required to make delivery of that commodity at the contract price and then repurchase the contract at prevailing market prices or settle in cash. Since the repurchase price to which the value of a commodity can rise is unlimited, entering into commitments to sell commodities would expose a Fund to theoretically unlimited risk.

Commodity Price Sensitivity

As further described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q, the value of the Shares of each Fund relates directly to the value of, and realized profit or loss from, the Financial Instruments and other assets held by the Fund and fluctuations in the price of these assets could materially adversely affect an investment in the Shares. With regard to the Commodity Index Funds or the Commodity Funds, several factors may affect the price of a commodity underlying a Commodity Index Fund or a Commodity Fund, and in turn, the Financial Instruments and other assets, if any, owned by such a Fund. The impact of changes in the price of a physical commodity or of a commodity index (comprised of commodity futures contracts) will affect investors differently depending upon the Fund in which investors invest. Daily increases in the price of an underlying commodity or commodity index will negatively impact the daily performance of Shares of an UltraShort Fund and daily decreases in the price of an underlying commodity or commodity index will negatively impact the daily performance of Shares of an Ultra Fund.

Additionally, performance over time is a cumulative effect of geometrically linking each day’s leveraged or inverse leveraged returns. For instance, if a corresponding benchmark was up 10% and then down 10%, which would result in a (1.1*0.9)-1 = -1% period benchmark return, the two-day period return for a theoretical two-times fund would be equal to a (1.2 *0.8)-1 = -4% period Fund return (rather than simply two times the period return of the benchmark).

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

As further described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q, the value of the Shares of each Fund relates directly to the value of, and realized profit or loss from, the Financial Instruments and other assets held by the Fund and fluctuations in the price of these assets could materially adversely affect an investment in the Shares. With regard to the Currency Funds, several factors may affect the value of the foreign currencies or the U.S. Dollar, and, in turn, the Financial Instruments and other assets, if any, owned by a Fund. The impact of changes in the price of a currency will affect investors differently depending upon the Fund in which investors invest. Daily increases in the price of a currency will negatively impact the daily performance of Shares of an UltraShort Fund and daily decreases in the price of a currency will negatively impact the daily performance of Shares of an Ultra Fund.

Additionally, performance over time is a cumulative effect of geometrically linking each day’s leveraged or inverse leveraged returns. For instance, if a corresponding benchmark was up 10% and then down 10%, which would result in a (1.1*0.9)-1 = -1% period benchmark return, the two-day period return for a theoretical two-times fund would be equal to a (1.2 *0.8)-1 = -4% period Fund return (rather than simply two times the period return of the benchmark).

Equity Market Volatility Sensitivity

As further described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q, the value of the Shares of each VIX Fund relates directly to the value of, and realized profit or loss from, the Financial Instruments and other assets held by the Fund and fluctuations in the price of these assets could materially adversely affect an investment in the Shares. Several factors may affect the price and/or liquidity of VIX futures contracts and other assets, if any, owned by a VIX Fund. The impact of changes in the price of these assets will affect investors differently depending upon the Fund in which investors invest.

Managing Market Risks

Each Fund seeks to remain fully exposed to the corresponding benchmark at the levels implied by the relevant investment objective (1x, 2x, -1x or -2x), regardless of market direction or sentiment. At the close of the relevant markets each trading day (see NAV calculation times), each Fund will seek to position its portfolio so that its exposure to its benchmark is consistent with its investment objective. As described above in Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, these adjustments are done through the use of various Financial Instruments. No attempt is made to adjust market exposure in order to avoid changes to the benchmark that would cause the Funds to lose value. Factors common to all Funds that may require portfolio re-positioning are create/redeem activity and index rebalances.

For Geared Funds, the impact of the Index’s movements during the day also affects whether the Fund’s portfolio needs to be re-positioned. For example, if the Index for an Ultra Fund has risen on a given day, net assets of the Fund should rise, meaning that the Fund’s long exposure will need to be increased to the extent there are not offsetting factors such as redemption activity. Conversely, if the Index has fallen on a given day, net assets of an Ultra Fund should fall, meaning the Fund’s long exposure will generally need to be decreased. Net assets for Short Funds will generally decrease when the Index rises on a given day, meaning the Fund’s short exposure may need to be decreased. Conversely if the Index has fallen on a given day, a Short Fund’s assets should rise, meaning its short exposure may need to be increased.

The use of certain Financial Instruments introduces counterparty risk. A Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from counterparties to Financial Instruments entered into by the Fund. A Fund may be negatively impacted if a

-173-


Table of Contents

counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. Each Fund intends to enter into swap and forward agreements only with large, established and well capitalized financial institutions that meet certain credit quality standards and monitoring policies. Each Fund may use various techniques to minimize credit risk including early termination or reset and payment, limiting the net amount due from any individual counterparty, and generally requiring that the counterparty post collateral with respect to amounts owed to the Funds, marked to market daily.

Most Financial Instruments held by the Funds are “unfunded” meaning that the Fund will obtain exposure to the corresponding benchmark while still being in possession of its original cash assets. The cash positions that result from use of such Financial Instruments are held in a manner to minimize both interest rate and credit risk. During the reporting period, cash positions were maintained in a non-interest bearing demand deposit account. The Funds also invest a portion of this cash in cash equivalents (such as shares of money market funds, bank deposits, bank money market accounts, certain variable rate-demand notes and repurchase agreements collateralized by government securities).

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Trust, Trust management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Trust’s and the Funds’ disclosure controls and procedures, and have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Trust and the Funds (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)) were effective, as of September 30, 2011, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Trust files or submits under the 1934 Act on behalf of the Trust and the Funds is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to the duly authorized officers of the Trust as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Trust’s or the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trust’s or the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting.

Certifications

The certifications by the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the Trust required by Section 302 and Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which are filed or furnished as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, apply both to the Trust taken as a whole and each Fund, and the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the Trust are certifying both as to the Trust taken as a whole and each Fund.

The Trust and certain principals of the Sponsor are defendants (along with several other parties) in a consolidated class action lawsuit styled In re ProShares Trust Securities Litigation, Civ. No. 09-cv-6935, filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint, as amended, alleges that the defendants violated Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 by including untrue statements of material fact and omitting material facts in the Registration Statement for one or more ProShares ETFs, allegedly failing to adequately disclose the Funds’ investment objectives and risks. The six Funds of the Trust named in the complaint are ProShares Ultra Silver, ProShares UltraShort Gold, ProShares Ultra Gold, ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil, ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil and ProShares UltraShort Silver. The Trust believes the complaint is without merit and that the anticipated outcome will not adversely impact the operation of the Trust or any of its Funds.

Risks Specific to the Geared Funds

In addition to the risks described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, the following risks apply to the Geared Funds.

Due to the compounding of daily returns, the Geared Funds’ returns over periods longer than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly even direction from the Fund multiple times the benchmark return for the period.

Each of the Geared Funds are “geared” funds in the sense that each has an investment objective to match a multiple ( e.g. , 2x), the inverse ( e.g. , -1x) or an inverse multiple ( e.g. , -2x) of the performance of a benchmark on a given day. Each Geared Fund seeks investment results for a single day only, as measured from its net asset value (“NAV”) calculation time to its next NAV calculation time, and not for any other period. The return of a Geared Fund for a period longer than a day is the result of its return for each day compounded over the period and usually will differ from the Geared Fund’s multiple times the return of the Geared Fund’s benchmark for the period. Longer holding periods, higher benchmark volatility, inverse multiples and greater leverage each affect the impact of compounding on a Fund’s returns. Daily compounding of a Geared Fund’s investment returns can dramatically and adversely affect its longer-term performance during periods of high volatility. Volatility may be at least as important to a Geared Fund’s return for a period as the return of the fund’s underlying benchmark.

Each Ultra or UltraShort Fund uses leverage and should produce daily returns that are more volatile than that of its benchmark. For example, the daily return of an Ultra Fund with a 2x multiple should be approximately twice as volatile on a daily basis as is the return of a fund with an objective of matching the same benchmark. The daily returns of Short and UltraShort Funds are designed to be the inverse of, or twice the inverse of, the return that would be expected of a fund with an objective of matching the same benchmark. The Geared Funds

are not appropriate for all investors and present different risks than other funds. The Geared Funds that use leverage are riskier than similarly benchmarked exchange-traded funds that do not use leverage. An investor should only consider an investment in a Geared Fund if he or she understands the consequences of seeking daily leveraged, daily inverse or daily inverse leveraged investment results. Daily objective geared funds, if used properly and in conjunction with the investor’s view on the future direction and volatility of the markets, can be useful tools for investors who want to manage their exposure to various markets and market segments and who are willing to monitor and/or periodically rebalance their portfolios. Shareholders who invest in the Geared Funds should actively manage and monitor their investments, as frequently as daily.

The hypothetical example below illustrates how daily geared fund returns can behave for periods longer than one day. Take a hypothetical fund XYZ that seeks to double the daily performance of benchmark XYZ. On each day, fund XYZ performs in line with its objective (2x the benchmark’s daily performance before fees and expenses). Notice that over the entire five-day period, the fund’s total return is considerably less than double that of the period return of the benchmark. For the five-day period, benchmark XYZ gained 5.1% while fund XYZ gained 9.8% (versus 10.2% or 2x 5.1%). In other scenarios, the return of a daily rebalanced fund could be greater than double the benchmark’s return.

This effect is caused by compounding, which exists in all investments, but has a more significant impact in geared funds. In general, during periods of higher benchmark volatility, compounding will cause longer term results to be less than two times the return of the benchmark (or less than the inverse (-1x) or twice the inverse (-2x) times the return of the benchmarks for the Short Funds and the UltraShort Funds, respectively). This effect becomes more pronounced as volatility increases. Conversely, in periods of lower benchmark volatility (particularly when combined with higher benchmark returns), fund returns over longer periods can be higher than two times the return of the benchmark. Actual results for a particular period, before fees and expenses, are also dependent on the magnitude of the benchmark return in addition to the benchmark volatility. Similar effects exist for Short Funds and the UltraShort Funds, and the significance of this effect is even greater with inverse or inverse leveraged funds.

The graphs that follow illustrate this point. Each of the graphs shows a simulated hypothetical one year performance of a benchmark compared with the performance of a fund that perfectly achieves its geared daily investment objective. The graphs demonstrate that, for periods greater than one day, a geared fund is likely to underperform or over-perform (but not match) the benchmark performance (or the inverse of the benchmark performance) times the multiple stated as the daily fund objective. Investors should understand the consequences of holding daily rebalanced funds for periods longer than a single day and should actively manage and monitor their investments, as frequently as daily. A one-year period is used solely for illustrative purposes. Deviations from the benchmark return times the fund multiple can occur over periods as short as two days (each day as measured from NAV to NAV) and may also occur in periods shorter than one day (when measured intraday as opposed to NAV to NAV). See “Intraday Price Performance Risk” below for additional details. To isolate the impact of leverage, these graphs assume: a) no fund expenses or transaction costs; b) borrowing/lending rates (to obtain required leverage) and cash reinvestment rates of zero percent; and c) the fund consistently maintaining perfect exposure (2x, -1x or -2x) as of the fund’s NAV time each day. If these assumptions were different, the fund’s performance would be different than that shown. Each of the graphs also assumes a volatility rate of 60%, which is an approximate average of the five-year historical volatility rate of the most volatile benchmark referenced herein (the S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures Index). A benchmark’s volatility rate is a statistical measure of the magnitude of fluctuations in its returns.

The tables below illustrate the impact of two factors impacting a fund’s performance, benchmark volatility and benchmark return. Benchmark volatility is a statistical measure of the magnitude of fluctuations in the returns of a benchmark and is calculated as the standard deviation of the natural logarithms of one plus the benchmark return (calculated daily), multiplied by the square root of the number of trading days per year (assumed to be 252). The tables show estimated fund returns for a number of combinations of benchmark return and benchmark volatility over a one-year period. To isolate the impact of leverage, these graphs assume: a) no fund expenses or transaction costs; b) borrowing/lending rates of zero percent (to obtain required leveraged, inverse or inverse leveraged exposure) and cash reinvestment rates of zero percent; and c) the fund consistently maintaining perfect exposure (2x, -1x or -2x) as of the fund’s NAV time each day. If these assumptions were different, the fund’s performance would be different than that shown. If fund expenses, transaction costs and financing expenses were included, the fund’s performance would be lower than shown. The first table below shows an example in which a geared fund has an investment objective to correspond to twice (2x) the daily performance of a benchmark. The geared fund could incorrectly be expected to achieve a 20% return on a yearly basis if the benchmark return was 10%, absent the effects of compounding. However, as the table shows, with a benchmark volatility of 40%, such a fund would return 3.1. In the charts below, shaded areas represent those scenarios where a geared fund with the investment objective described will outperform ( i.e. , return more than) the benchmark performance times the stated multiple in the fund’s investment objective; conversely areas not shaded represent those scenarios where the fund will underperform ( i.e. , return less than) the benchmark performance times the multiple stated as the daily fund objective.

The foregoing tables are intended to isolate the effect of benchmark volatility and benchmark performance on the return of leveraged, inverse or inverse leveraged funds. The Geared Funds’ actual returns may be significantly greater or less than the returns shown above as a result of any of the factors discussed above or under the below risk factor describing correlation risks.

Correlation Risks Specific to the Geared Funds.

In order to achieve a high degree of correlation with their applicable underlying benchmarks, the Geared Funds seek to rebalance their portfolios daily to keep exposure consistent with their investment objectives. Being materially over- or under-exposed to the benchmarks may prevent such Funds from achieving a high degree of correlation with their applicable underlying benchmarks. Market disruptions or closure, regulatory restrictions or extreme market volatility will adversely affect such Funds’ ability to adjust exposure to requisite levels. The target amount of portfolio exposure is impacted dynamically by the benchmarks’ movements during each day. Because of this, it is unlikely that the Geared Funds will be perfectly exposed ( i.e. , 2x, -1x, or -2x, as applicable) at the end of each day, and the likelihood of being materially under- or over-exposed is higher on days when the benchmark levels are volatile near the close of the trading day.

For general correlation risks of the Funds, please see “While close tracking of any Fund to its benchmark may be achieved, several factors may affect a Fund’s ability to consistently achieve this correlation.” below.

Intraday Price Performance Risk.

Each Geared Fund is rebalanced at or about the time of its NAV calculation time (which in many cases is other than at the close of the U.S. equity markets). As such, the intraday leveraging of a Fund as reflected in its secondary market price will generally be different from the Fund’s stated daily investment objective ( e.g. , 2x, -1x or -2x). When shares of a Fund (“Shares”) are bought intraday, the performance of a Geared Fund’s Shares until the Fund’s next NAV calculation will generally be greater than or less than the Fund’s stated daily multiple.

The use of leveraged, inverse and/or inverse leveraged positions could result in the total loss of an investor’s investment.

The Geared Funds that utilize leveraged or inverse leveraged techniques in seeking to achieve their respective investment objectives will lose more money in market environments adverse to their respective daily investment objectives than Funds that do not employ leveraged or inverse leveraged techniques, which could result in the total loss of an investor’s investment.

For example, because the Ultra and UltraShort Funds offered hereby include a two times (2x) or a two times the inverse (-2x) multiplier, a single day price movement approaching 50% at any point in the day in the relevant benchmark could result in the total loss or almost total loss of an investor’s investment if that price movement is contrary to the investment objective of the Fund in which an investor has invested, even if such Fund’s benchmark subsequently moves in an opposite direction, eliminating all or part of the price movement. This would be the case with downward one-day or intraday price movements in the benchmark of an Ultra Fund or upward one-day or intraday price movements in the benchmark of an UltraShort Fund, even though the benchmark (and the reference assets comprising that benchmark) maintains a level greater than zero at all times.

-183-


Table of Contents

Inverse positions can result in unlimited losses as the benchmark rises. As such, for Short Funds, a single day or intraday price increase approaching 100% in the relevant benchmark could result in the total loss or almost total loss of an investor’s investment even if such Fund’s benchmark subsequently moves lower. This risk exists for all of the Short Funds, and, based on historical intraday volatility measures, may be particularly acute for ProShares Short VIX Futures ETF.

Risks Specific to the VIX Funds

In addition to the risks described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, the following risks apply to the VIX Funds.

The VIX Funds are benchmarked to either the S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures Index or the S&P 500 VIX Mid-Term Futures Index (each, a “VIX Futures Index”). They are not benchmarked to the VIX or actual realized volatility of the S&P 500 Index.

The level of each VIX Futures Index is based on the value of the relevant futures contracts (“VIX futures contracts”) based on the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (the “VIX”) comprising the applicable VIX Futures Index. Each VIX Fund is benchmarked to its respective VIX Futures Index and the VIX Funds are not linked to the VIX (which is a measure of implied volatility of the S&P 500 Index over the next 30 days derived from option prices), to realized volatility of the S&P 500 Index or to the options that underlie the VIX calculation. Each VIX Fund should be expected to perform very differently from the VIX over all periods of time. In many cases the VIX Futures Indexes will significantly underperform the VIX. Furthermore, because each VIX Fund may invest in VIX futures contracts other than the VIX futures contracts comprising the Fund’s VIX Futures Index, the VIX Funds may perform differently than their respective VIX Futures Indexes.

VIX futures contracts are not directly based on a tradable underlying asset.

The VIX is not directly investable. The settlement price at maturity of VIX futures contracts are based on the calculation that determines the level of the VIX. As a result, the behavior of the VIX futures contracts may be different from traditional futures contracts whose settlement price is based on a specific tradable asset.

The VIX Futures Indexes and VIX futures have limited historical information.

The VIX Futures Indexes were created in December 2008 and Standard & Poor’s has published limited information about how the VIX Futures Indexes would have performed had they been calculated prior to their creation. In addition, VIX futures contracts have traded freely only since March 26, 2004, and not all futures of all relevant maturities have traded at all times since that date. Because the VIX Futures Indexes and the VIX futures contracts that underlie them are of recent origin and limited historical performance data exists with respect to them, your investment in the Fund may involve a greater risk than investing in alternate instruments linked to one or more indexes with a more established record of performance. A longer history of actual performance may have been helpful in providing more reliable information on which to assess the validity of the proprietary methodology that the VIX Futures Indexes make use of as the basis for an investment decision.

The level of the VIX has historically reverted to a long-term mean level and is subject to the risk associated with reversion to its mean. Accordingly, investors should not expect the VIX Funds to retain any appreciation in value over extended periods of time.

In the past, the level of the VIX has typically reverted over the longer term to a historical mean, and its absolute level has been constrained within a band. It is likely that the spot level of the VIX will continue to be constrained in the future. This means that the level of VIX futures and the VIX Futures Indexes also likely will be constrained within a band and mean reverting over time. Unlike conventional stock-based indexes and funds, it is not expected that the VIX Futures Indexes or the VIX Funds will generally rise over time. Rather the VIX Futures Indexes, the VIX Ultra Funds and the Matching VIX Funds will rise and fall (or fall and rise) and the VIX Short Funds and the VIX UltraShort Funds will fall and rise (or rise and fall) as volatility increases and decreases (or decreases and increases). For most investors this likely implies that the VIX Funds should only be used as a short-term tactical tool or for diversification purposes rather than an investment in anticipation of long-term gains.

When economic uncertainty increases and there is an associated increase in expected volatility, the value of VIX futures contracts will likely also increase and the potential upside of an investment in a VIX Short Fund or VIX UltraShort Fund will correspondingly be limited as a result. Similarly, when economic uncertainty recedes, and there is an associated decrease in expected volatility, the value of VIX futures contracts will likely also decrease and the potential upside of an investment in a VIX Ultra Fund or a Matching VIX Fund will correspondingly be limited as a result.

Risks Related to All Funds

While close tracking of any Fund to its benchmark may be achieved, several factors may affect a Fund’s ability to consistently achieve this correlation.

While the Funds expect to meet their investment objectives, there is no guarantee they will do so. Factors that may affect a Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective include: (1) the ability of ProShare Capital Management LLC (the “Sponsor”) to purchase and sell Financial Instruments ( i.e. , commodity-based, currency-based or equity market volatility-based instruments whose value is derived from the value of an underlying asset, rate or index, including futures contracts and options on futures contracts, swap agreements, forward contracts and other commodity-based or currency-based options contracts as a substitute for investing directly in commodities, currencies or equity market volatility products in order to gain exposure to the commodity index, currency benchmark, commodity, currency or to an equity market volatility index) in a manner that correlates to a Fund’s objective; (2) an imperfect correlation between the performance of the instruments held by a Fund, such as swaps, futures contracts and/or forward contracts, and the performance of the applicable benchmark; (3) bid-ask spreads on such instruments; (4) commission costs; (5) holding instruments traded in a market that has become illiquid or disrupted; (6) a Fund’s Share prices being rounded to the nearest cent; (7) changes to a benchmark that are not disseminated in advance; (8) the need to conform a Fund’s portfolio holdings to comply with investment restrictions or policies or regulatory or tax law requirements; and (9) early and unanticipated closings of the markets on which the holdings of a Fund trade, resulting in the inability of the Fund to execute intended portfolio transactions; and (10) accounting standards.

Each Fund seeks to provide investment results (before fees and expenses) that correspond to the daily performance (or, in the case of the Geared Funds, correspond to a multiple, the inverse or an inverse multiple of the daily performance) of a benchmark at all times, even during periods when the applicable benchmark is flat as well as when the benchmark is moving in a manner which causes a Fund’s NAV to decline, thereby causing losses to such Fund.

The Funds are not actively managed by traditional methods, which typically involve effecting changes in the composition of a portfolio on the basis of judgments relating to economic, financial and market considerations with a view toward obtaining positive results under all market conditions. Rather, the Sponsor seeks to cause the NAV to track the daily performance of a benchmark in accordance with each Fund’s investment objective, even during periods in which the benchmark is flat or moving in a manner which causes the NAV of a Fund to decline. It is possible to lose money over time when an underlying benchmark is up for the corresponding Ultra Fund, or down for the corresponding Short or UltraShort Fund, due to the effects of daily rebalancing, volatility and compounding (see “Risks Specific to the Geared Funds” for additional details).

The value of the Shares of each Fund relates directly to the value of, and realized profit or loss from, the Financial Instruments and other assets held by that Fund. Fluctuations in the price of these Financial Instruments or assets could materially adversely affect an investment in the Shares.

With regard to the Commodity Funds and the Commodity Index Funds, several factors may affect the price of an underlying reference asset, and in turn, the Financial Instruments and other assets, if any, owned by such a Fund, including, but not limited to:

-185-


Table of Contents

The recent proliferation of commodity linked exchange-traded products and their unknown effect on the commodity markets.

Large purchases or sales of physical commodities by the official sector. Governments and large institutions have large commodities holdings or may establish major commodities positions. For example, a significant portion of the aggregate world gold holdings is owned by governments, central banks and related institutions. Similarly, nations with centralized or nationalized oil production and organizations such as the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries control large physical quantities of crude oil. If one or more of these institutions decides to buy or sell any commodity in amounts large enough to cause a change in world prices, the price of Shares based upon a benchmark related to that commodity will be affected.

Other political factors. In addition to the organized political and institutional trading-related activities described above, peaceful political activity such as imposition of regulations or entry into trade treaties, as well as political disruptions caused by societal breakdown, insurrection and/or war may greatly influence commodities prices.

Significant increases or decreases in the available supply of a physical commodity due to natural or technological factors. Natural factors would include depletion of known cost-effective sources for a commodity or the impact of severe weather on the ability to produce or distribute the commodity. Technological factors, such as increases in availability created by new or improved extraction, refining and processing equipment and methods or decreases caused by failure or unavailability of major refining and processing equipment (for example, shutting down or constructing oil refineries), also materially influence the supply of commodities.

Significant increases or decreases in the demand for a physical commodity due to natural or technological factors. Natural factors would include such events as unusual climatological conditions impacting the demand for energy commodities. Technological factors may include such developments as substitutes for energy or other industrial commodities.

A significant increase or decrease in commodity hedging activity by commodity producers. Should there be an increase or decrease in the level of hedge activity of commodity producing companies, countries and/or organizations, it could cause a change in world prices of any given commodity, causing the price of Shares based upon a benchmark related to that commodity to be affected.

A significant change in the attitude of speculators and investors towards a commodity. Should the speculative community take a negative or positive view towards any given commodity, it could cause a change in world prices of any given commodity and the price of Shares based upon a benchmark related to that commodity will be affected.

With regard to the Currency Funds, several factors may affect the value of foreign currencies or the U.S. dollar, and in turn, Financial Instruments and other assets, if any, owned by a Fund, including, but not limited to:

Debt level and trade deficit of the relevant foreign countries;

Inflation rates of the United States and the relevant foreign countries and investors’ expectations concerning inflation rates;

Interest rates of the United States and the relevant foreign countries and investors’ expectations concerning interest rates;

Investment and trading activities of mutual funds, hedge funds and currency funds;

Global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations; and

Sovereign action to set or restrict currency conversion.

With regard to the VIX Funds, several factors may affect the price and/or liquidity of VIX futures contracts and other assets, if any, owned by a Fund, including, but not limited to:

Prevailing market prices and forward volatility levels of the U.S. stock markets, the S&P 500 Index, the equity securities included in the S&P 500 Index and prevailing market prices of options on the S&P 500 Index, the VIX, options on the VIX, the relevant VIX futures contracts, or any other financial instruments related to the S&P 500 Index and the VIX or VIX futures;

Interest rates;

Economic, financial, political, regulatory, geographical, biological or judicial events that affect the level of a VIX Futures Index or the market price or forward volatility of the U.S. stock markets, the equity securities included in the S&P 500 Index, the S&P 500 Index, the VIX or the relevant futures or option contracts on the VIX;

Supply and demand as well as hedging activities in the listed and over-the-counter (“OTC”) equity derivative markets; and

Disruptions in trading of the S&P 500 Index, futures contracts on the S&P 500 Index or options on the S&P 500 Index.

These factors interrelate in complex ways, and the effect of one factor on the market value of a Fund may offset or enhance the effect of another factor.

Financial Instruments linked to commodities, currencies and/or equity market volatility benchmarks can be highly volatile and the Funds may experience large losses when buying, selling or holding such instruments.

Financial Instruments linked to commodities, currencies and/or equity market volatility benchmarks can be highly volatile and may experience large losses. In particular, trading in VIX futures contracts and natural gas futures contracts (or other Financial Instruments linked to equity market volatility or natural gas) has been very volatile and can be expected to be very volatile in the future. High volatility may have an adverse impact on the Funds, especially the Geared Funds.

Potential negative impact from rolling futures positions.

Certain of the Funds invest in or have exposure to futures contracts and are subject to risks related to rolling. The contractual obligations of a buyer or seller holding to expiration may generally be satisfied by taking or making physical delivery of the underlying reference asset or settling in cash as designated in the contract specifications. Alternatively, futures contracts may be closed out prior to expiration by making an offsetting sale or purchase of an identical futures contract on the same or linked exchange before the designated date of delivery. Once this date is reached, the futures contract “expires.” As the futures contracts held by a Fund near expiration, they are generally closed out and replaced by contracts with a later expiration. This process is referred to as “rolling.”

When the market for these contracts is such that the prices are higher in the more distant delivery months than in the nearer delivery months, the sale during the course of the “rolling process” of the more nearby contract would take place at a price that is lower than the price of the more distant contract. This pattern of higher futures prices for longer expiration futures contracts is often referred to as “contango.” Alternatively, when the market for these contracts is such that the prices are higher in the nearer months than in the more distant months, the sale during the course of the “rolling process” of the more nearby contract would take place at a price that is higher than the price of the more distant contract. This pattern of higher futures prices of shorter expiration futures contracts is referred to as “backwardation.”

-187-


Table of Contents

There have been extended periods in which contango or backwardation has existed in the futures contract markets for various types of futures contracts, and such periods can be expected to occur in the future. The presence of contango in certain futures contracts at the time of rolling would be expected to adversely affect the Ultra Funds and Matching VIX Funds, and positively affect the Short Funds and UltraShort Funds. Similarly, the presence of backwardation in certain futures contracts at the time of rolling such contracts would be expected to adversely affect the Short Funds and UltraShort Funds and positively affect the Ultra Funds and Matching VIX Funds.

Funds that are designed to track a multiple, the inverse or an inverse multiple of the daily performance of gold or silver bullion (ProShares Ultra Gold, ProShares Short Gold, ProShares UltraShort Gold, ProShares Ultra Silver and ProShares UltraShort Silver) do not invest in bullion itself as certain other exchange-traded products do. Rather such Funds use Financial Instruments to gain exposure to these precious metals. Not investing directly in bullion may introduce additional tracking error and these Funds are subject to the effects of contango and backwardation described above.

Using Financial Instruments such as forwards and futures in an effort to replicate the performance of gold and silver bullion may introduce tracking error to the performance of such Funds. The primary cause of tracking error resulting from not investing directly in bullion is expected to be caused by the need to roll futures or forward contracts as described above and the resulting possibility that contango or backwardation can occur. Gold and silver historically exhibit contango markets during most periods. The existence of historically prevalent contango markets would be expected to adversely affect the Ultra Funds. Alternatively, the existence of backwardated markets in either silver or gold would have an adverse impact on the Short and UltraShort Funds.

Possible illiquid markets may exacerbate losses.

Financial Instruments cannot always be liquidated at the desired price. It is difficult to execute a trade at a specific price when there is a relatively small volume of buy and sell orders in a market. A market disruption can also make it difficult to liquidate a position or find a swap or forward contract counterparty at a reasonable cost.

There can be no assurance that market illiquidity will not cause losses for the Funds. The large size of the positions which the Funds may acquire increases the risk of illiquidity by both making their positions more difficult to liquidate and increasing the losses incurred while trying to do so. Any type of disruption or illiquidity will potentially be exacerbated due to the fact that the Funds will typically invest in Financial Instruments related to one benchmark, which in many cases is highly concentrated.

It may not be possible to gain exposure to the benchmarks using exchange-traded Financial Instruments in the future.

The Funds may utilize exchange-traded Financial Instruments. It may not be possible to gain exposure to the benchmarks with these Financial Instruments in the future. If these Financial Instruments cease to be traded on regulated exchanges, they may be replaced with Financial Instruments traded on trading facilities that are subject to lesser degrees of regulation or, in some cases, no substantive regulation. As a result, trading in such Financial Instruments, and the manner in which prices and volumes are reported by the relevant trading facilities, may not be subject to the provisions of, and the protections afforded by, the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act of 1936 (the “CEA”), or other applicable statutes and related regulations, that govern trading on regulated U.S. futures exchanges, or similar statutes and regulations that govern trading on regulated U.K. futures exchanges. In addition, many electronic trading facilities have only recently initiated trading and do not have significant trading histories. As a result, the trading of contracts on such facilities, and the inclusion of such contracts in a benchmark index, may be subject to certain risks not presented by U.S. or U.K. exchange-traded futures contracts, including risks related to the liquidity and price histories of the relevant contracts.

Fees are charged regardless of a Fund’s returns and may result in depletion of assets.

The Funds are subject to the fees and expenses described herein which are payable irrespective of a Fund’s returns. Such fees and expenses include asset-based fees of 0.95% per annum of each Geared Fund’s average daily NAV and 0.85% per annum of each Matching VIX Fund’s average daily NAV, as well as the effects of commissions, trading spreads, and embedded financing, borrow costs and fees associated with swaps, forwards, futures contracts, and costs relating to the purchase of U.S. Treasury securities or similar high credit quality short-term fixed-income or similar securities. Additional charges may include other fees as applicable.

To the extent that a Fund benchmark is an index, changes implemented by the index provider that affect the composition and valuation of the index could adversely affect the value of an investment in a Fund’s Shares.

Certain Fund benchmarks are indexes maintained by index providers that are unaffiliated with the Funds or the Sponsor. The policies implemented by index providers concerning the calculation of the level of an index or the composition of an index could affect the level of the index and, therefore, the value of Shares. The index providers may change the composition of its indexes, or make other methodological changes that could change the level of an index. Additionally, the index providers may alter, discontinue or suspend calculation or dissemination an index. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of Shares of a Fund using that index as a benchmark. Index providers have no obligation to consider Fund shareholder interests in calculating or revising an index. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of Fund Shares. Calculation of an index may not be possible or feasible under certain events or circumstances that are beyond the reasonable control of the Sponsor, which in turn may adversely impact both the index and/or the Shares, as applicable. Additionally, index calculations may be disrupted by rollover disruptions, rebalancing disruptions and/or market emergencies, which may have an adverse effect on the value of the Shares.

The Funds are subject to counterparty risks, credit risks and other risks associated with swap agreements and forward contracts, which could result in significant losses to such Funds.

Certain of the Funds may use swap agreements and/or forward contracts as a means to achieve their respective investment objectives. These Financial Instruments are traded over the counter and are essentially unregulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). Investors, therefore, do not receive the protection of CFTC regulation or the statutory scheme of the CEA in connection with each Fund’s swap agreements or forward contracts. The lack of regulation in these markets could expose investors to significant losses under certain circumstances including in the event of trading abuses or financial failure by participants.

Unlike in futures contracts, the counterparty to swap agreements or forward contracts is generally a single bank or other financial institution, rather than a clearing organization backed by a group of financial institutions. As a result, a Fund is subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from counterparties to swaps and forward contracts entered into as part of that Fund’s principal investment strategy. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations, a Fund could suffer significant losses on these contracts and the value of an investor’s investment in a Fund may decline.

The Funds have sought to mitigate these risks by generally requiring that the counterparties for each Fund agree to post collateral for the benefit of the Fund, marked to market daily, in an amount approximately equal to what the counterparty owes the Fund. In the event of the bankruptcy of a counterparty, the Fund will have direct access to the collateral received from the counterparty. To the extent any such collateral is otherwise insufficient, the Funds will be exposed to counterparty risk as described above, including possible delays in recovering amounts as a result of bankruptcy proceedings. The Funds typically enter into transactions only with large, well-capitalized and well established financial institutions.

Swaps or forward contracts have terms that make them less marketable than futures contracts. Swaps or forward contracts are less marketable because they are not traded on an exchange, do not have uniform terms and conditions, and are entered into based upon the creditworthiness of the parties and the availability of credit support, such as collateral, and in general, are not transferable without the consent of the counterparty. Swap agreements and forward contracts may entail breakage costs if terminated prior to the final maturity date.

If the value of the Fund’s benchmark has a dramatic intraday move in value that would cause a material decline in the Fund’s NAV, the terms of the swap may permit the counterparty to immediately close out the transaction with the Fund. In that event, it may not be possible for the Fund to enter into another swap agreement or to invest in other Financial Instruments necessary to achieve the desired exposure consistent with the Fund’s objective. This, in turn, may prevent the fund from achieving its investment objective, even if the value of the Fund’s benchmark reverses all or part of its intraday move by the end of the day.

Historical correlation trends between Fund benchmarks and other asset classes may not continue or may reverse, limiting or eliminating any potential diversification or other benefit from owning a Fund.

To the extent that an investor purchases a Fund seeking diversification benefits based on the historic correlation (whether positive or negative) between the returns of the commodity, equity market volatility or currency markets and other asset classes, such historic correlation may not continue or may reverse itself. In this circumstance, the diversification or other benefits sought may be limited or nonexistent.

The Funds have limited or no operating history, and, as a result, investors have only a limited performance history, if any, to serve as a factor for evaluating an investment in the Funds.

The Funds have limited or no performance history upon which to evaluate an investor’s investment in the Funds. Although past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results, if the Funds had longer performance histories, or any performance history in the case of ProShares Short DJ-UBS Natural Gas, ProShares Short Gold Fund, ProShares UltraShort VIX Short-Term Futures ETF, ProShares UltraVIX Mid-Term Futures ETF, ProShares Short VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF or ProShares UltraShort VIX Mid-Term Futures ETF, such performance histories might (or might not) provide investors with more information on which to evaluate an investment in the Funds. Likewise, certain benchmarks have a limited history which might (or might not) provide investors with more information on which to evaluate an investment in the Funds.

Investors cannot be assured of the Sponsor’s continued services, the discontinuance of which may be detrimental to the Funds.

Investors cannot be assured that the Sponsor will be able to continue to service the Funds for any length of time. If the Sponsor discontinues its activities on behalf of the Funds, the Funds may be adversely affected, as there may be no entity servicing the Funds for a period of time. If the Sponsor’s registrations with the CFTC or memberships in the National Futures Association were revoked or suspended, the Sponsor would no longer be able to provide services and/or to render trading advice to the Funds. As the Funds themselves are not registered with the CFTC in any capacity, if the Sponsor were unable to provide services and/or trading advice to the Funds, the Funds would be unable to pursue their investment objectives unless and until the Sponsor’s ability to provide services and trading advice to the Funds was reinstated or a replacement for the Sponsor as commodity pool operator and/or commodity trading advisor could be found. Such an event could result in termination of the Funds.

The lack of active trading markets for the Shares of the Funds may result in losses on investors’ investments at the time of disposition of Shares.

Although the Shares of the Funds are or will be listed and traded on the NYSE Arca, there can be no guarantee that an active trading market for the Shares of the Funds will develop or be maintained. If investors need to sell their Shares at a time when no active market for them exists, the price investors receive for their Shares, assuming that investors are able to sell them, likely will be lower than the price that investors would receive if an active market did exist.

Investors may be adversely affected by redemption or creation orders that are subject to postponement, suspension or rejection under certain circumstances.

A Fund may, in its discretion, suspend the right of creation or redemption or may postpone the redemption or purchase settlement date, for (1) any period during which the NYSE Arca, New York Stock Exchange or any other exchange, marketplace or trading center, deemed to affect the normal operations of the Funds, is closed, or when trading is restricted or suspended or restricted on such exchanges in any of the Funds’ futures contracts, (2) any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which the fulfillment of a purchase order or the redemption distribution is not reasonably practicable, or (3) such other period as the Sponsor determines to be necessary for the protection of the shareholders of the Funds. In addition, a Fund will reject a redemption order if the order is not in proper form as described in the Authorized Participant Agreement or if the fulfillment of the order might be unlawful.

-190-


Table of Contents

Any such postponement, suspension or rejection could adversely affect a redeeming Authorized Participant. For example, the resulting delay may adversely affect the value of the Authorized Participant’s redemption proceeds if the NAV of the Funds decline during the period of delay. The Funds disclaim any liability for any loss or damage that may result from any such suspension or postponement. Suspension of creation privileges may adversely impact how the Shares are traded and arbitraged on the Exchange, which could cause them to trade at levels materially different (premiums and discounts) from the fair value of their underlying holdings.

The NAV may not always correspond to market price and, as a result, investors may be adversely affected by the creation or redemption of Creation Units at a value that differs from the market price of the Shares.

The NAV per Share of a Fund changes as fluctuations occur in the market value of a Fund’s portfolio. Investors should be aware that the public trading price of a number of Shares of a Fund otherwise amounting to a Creation Unit may be different from the NAV of an actual Creation Unit (i.e., 50,000 individual Shares may trade at a premium over, or a discount to, NAV of a Creation Unit of Shares of a Geared Fund or 25,000 individual Shares may trade at a premium over, or a discount to, NAV of a Creation Unit of Shares of a Matching VIX Fund) and similarly the public trading price per Share of a Fund may be different from the NAV per Share of the Fund. Consequently, an Authorized Participant may be able to create or redeem a Creation Unit of Shares of a Fund at a discount or a premium to the public trading price per Share of that Fund. This price difference may be due, in large part, to the fact that supply and demand forces at work in the secondary trading market for Shares of a Fund are closely related, but not identical, to the same forces influencing the price of an underlying reference asset at any point in time.

Authorized Participants or their clients or customers may have an opportunity to realize a profit if they can purchase a Creation Unit at a discount to the public trading price of the Shares of a Fund or can redeem a Creation Unit at a premium over the public trading price of the Shares of a Fund. The Sponsor expects that the exploitation of such arbitrage opportunities by Authorized Participants and their clients and customers will tend to cause the public trading price to track NAV per Share of the Funds closely over time.

The value of a Share of a Fund may be influenced by non-concurrent trading hours between the NYSE Arca and the market in which the Financial Instruments (or related reference assets) held by a Fund are traded. The Shares of each Fund trade, or will trade, on the NYSE Arca from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). The Financial Instruments (and/or the reference assets) held by a particular Fund, however, may have different fixing or settlement times. Consequently, liquidity in the Financial Instruments underlying the applicable benchmark may be reduced after the close of trading on the applicable exchange. As a result, during the time when the NYSE Arca is open and the exchange on which the Financial Instruments underlying the applicable benchmark are traded is closed, trading spreads and the resulting premium or discount on the Shares of a Fund may widen, and, therefore, increase the difference between the price of the Shares of a Fund and the NAV of such Shares.

The number of underlying components included in a Fund’s benchmark may impact volatility, which could adversely affect an investment in the Shares.

Each of the indices for the Commodity Index Funds is concentrated in terms of the number and type of commodities represented, and some of the sub-indices are solely concentrated in a single commodity. The benchmarks for the Commodity Funds, the VIX Funds and the Currency Funds are concentrated solely on a reference asset. Investors should be aware that other commodity, volatility and currency benchmarks may be more diversified in terms of both the number and variety of commodities and currencies included or in terms of the volatility exposure offered. Concentration in fewer underlying reference assets may result in a greater degree of volatility in a benchmark and the NAV of the Fund which tracks that benchmark under specific market conditions and over time.

Trading on exchanges outside the United States is not subject to U.S. regulation and may result in different or diminished investor protections.

Some of the Funds’ trading may be conducted on exchanges outside the United States. Trading on such exchanges is not regulated by any U.S. governmental agency and may involve certain risks not applicable to trading on U.S. exchanges, including different or diminished investor protections. In trading contracts denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars, the Shares are subject to the risk of adverse exchange rate movements between the dollar and the functional currencies of such contracts. Investors could incur substantial losses from trading on foreign exchanges which such investors would not have otherwise been subject had the Funds’ trading been limited to U.S. markets.

Competing claims of intellectual property rights may adversely affect the Funds and an investment in the Shares.

Although the Sponsor does not anticipate that such claims will adversely impact the Funds, it is impossible to provide definite assurances that no such negative impact will occur. The Sponsor believes that it has properly licensed or obtained the appropriate consent of all necessary parties with respect to intellectual property rights. However, other third parties could allege ownership as to such rights and may bring an action in asserting their claims. To the extent any action is brought by a third party asserting such rights, the expenses in litigating, negotiating, cross-licensing or otherwise settling such claims may adversely affect the Funds.

Investors may be adversely affected by an overstatement or understatement of the NAV calculation of the Funds due to the valuation method employed on the date of NAV calculation.

Calculating the NAV of the Funds includes, in part, any unrealized profits or losses on open Financial Instrument positions. Under normal circumstances, the NAV of a Fund reflects the value of the Financial Instruments held by a Fund, as of the time the NAV is being calculated. However, if any of the Financial Instruments held by a Fund could not be purchased or sold on a day when a Fund is accepting creation and redemption orders (due to the operation of daily limits or other rules of the exchange or otherwise), a Fund may be improperly exposed which could cause it to fail to meet its stated investment objective. Alternatively, a Fund may attempt to calculate the fair value of such Financial Instruments. In such a situation, there is a risk that the calculation of the relevant benchmark, and therefore, the NAV of the applicable Fund on such day, may not accurately reflect the realizable market value of the Financial Instruments underlying such benchmark.

The liquidity of the Shares may also be affected by the withdrawal from participation of Authorized Participants, which could adversely affect the market price of the Shares.

In the event that one or more Authorized Participants which have substantial interests in the Shares withdraw from participation, the liquidity of the Shares will likely decrease, which could adversely affect the market price of the Shares and result in investors incurring a loss on their investment.

Shareholders that are not Authorized Participants may only purchase or sell their Shares in secondary trading markets, and the conditions associated with trading in secondary markets may adversely affect investors’ investment in the Shares.

Only Authorized Participants may create or redeem Creation Units. All other investors that desire to purchase or sell Shares must do so through the NYSE Arca or in other markets, if any, in which the Shares may be traded.

NYSE Arca may halt trading in the Shares of a Fund which would adversely impact investors’ ability to sell Shares.

Trading in Shares of a Fund may be halted due to market conditions or, in light of NYSE Arca rules and procedures, for reasons that, in the view of the NYSE Arca, make trading in Shares of a Fund inadvisable. In addition, trading is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to “circuit breaker” rules that require trading to be halted for a specified period based on a specified decline or rise in a market index ( e.g. , Dow Jones Industrial Average) or in the price of a Fund’s Shares. Additionally the ability to short sell a Fund’s Shares may be restricted when there is a 10% or greater change from the previous day’s official closing price. There can be no assurance that the requirements necessary to maintain the listing of the Shares of a Fund will continue to be met or will remain unchanged.

Table of Contents

Shareholders do not have the protections associated with ownership of shares in an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 Act (the “1940 Act”).

None of the Funds are subject to registration or regulation under the 1940 Act. Consequently, shareholders do not have the regulatory protections provided to investors in investment companies.

Shareholders do not have the rights enjoyed by investors in certain other vehicles and may be adversely affected by a lack of statutory rights and by limited voting and distribution rights.

The Shares have limited voting and distribution rights. For example, shareholders do not have the right to elect directors, the Funds may enact splits or reverse splits without shareholder approval and the Funds are not required to pay regular distributions, although the Funds may pay distributions at the discretion of the Sponsor.

The value of the Shares will be adversely affected if the Funds are required to indemnify the Trustee.

Under the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement of the Trust, as may be further amended and restated from time to time (the “Trust Agreement”), the Trustee has the right to be indemnified for any liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct. That means the Sponsor may require the assets of a Fund to be sold in order to cover losses or liability suffered by it or by the Trustee. Any sale of that kind would reduce the NAV of one or more of the Funds.

Although the Shares of the Funds are limited liability investments, certain circumstances such as bankruptcy of a Fund will increase a shareholder’s liability.

The Shares of the Funds are limited liability investments; investors may not lose more than the amount that they invest plus any profits recognized on their investment. However, shareholders could be required, as a matter of bankruptcy law, to return to the estate of a Fund any distribution they received at a time when such Fund was in fact insolvent or in violation of the Trust Agreement.

Failure of the Futures Commission Merchants (each, an “FCM”) to segregate assets may increase losses in the Funds.

The CEA requires a clearing broker to segregate all funds received from customers from such broker’s proprietary assets. There is a risk that assets deposited by the Sponsor on behalf of the Funds as margin with the FCMs may, in certain circumstances, be used to satisfy losses of other clients of the FCMs. If an FCM fails to segregate the funds received from the Sponsor, the assets of the Funds might not be fully protected in the event of the FCM’s bankruptcy. Furthermore, in the event of an FCM’s bankruptcy, Fund Shares could be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the FCM’s combined customer accounts, even though certain property specifically traceable to a particular Fund was held by the FCM. Each FCM may, from time to time, have been the subject of certain regulatory and private causes of action.

In the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of any exchange or a clearing house, a Fund could experience a loss of the funds deposited through its FCM as margin with the exchange or clearing house, a loss of any profits on its open positions on the exchange, and the loss of unrealized profits on its closed positions on the exchange.

A court could potentially conclude that the assets and liabilities of one Fund are not segregated from those of another Fund and thereby potentially exposing assets in one Fund to the liabilities of another Fund.

Each Fund is a separate series of a Delaware statutory trust and not itself a separate legal entity. Section 3804(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act (the “DSTA”) provides that if certain provisions are in the formation and governing documents of a statutory trust organized in series, and if separate and distinct records are maintained for any series and the assets associated with that series are held in separate and distinct records (directly or indirectly, including through a nominee or otherwise) and accounted for in such separate and distinct records separately from the other assets of the statutory trust, or any series thereof, then the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular series are enforceable against the assets of

-193-


Table of Contents

such series only, and not against the assets of the statutory trust generally or any other series thereof, and none of the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to the statutory trust generally or any other series thereof shall be enforceable against the assets of such series. The Sponsor is not aware of any court case that has interpreted Section 3804(a) of the DSTA or provided any guidance as to what is required for compliance. The Sponsor maintains separate and distinct records for each Fund and accounts for them separately, but it is possible a court could conclude that the methods used did not satisfy Section 3804(a) of the DSTA and thus potentially expose assets in one Fund to the liabilities of another Fund.

Shareholders’ tax liability will exceed cash distributions on the Shares.

Shareholders of each Fund are subject to U.S. federal income taxation and, in some cases, state, local, or foreign income taxation on their share of the Fund’s taxable income, whether or not they receive cash distributions from the Fund. Each Fund does not currently expect to make distributions with respect to capital gains or ordinary income. Accordingly, shareholders of a Fund will not receive cash distributions equal to their share of the Fund’s taxable income or the tax liability that results from such income. A Fund’s income, gains, losses and deductions are allocated to shareholders on a monthly basis. If you own Shares in a Fund at the beginning of a month and sell them during the month, you are generally still considered a shareholder through the end of that month.

The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) could adjust or reallocate items of income, gain, deduction, loss and credit with respect to the Shares if the IRS does not accept the assumptions or conventions utilized by the Fund.

U.S. federal income tax rules applicable to partnerships are complex and their application is not always clear. Moreover, the rules generally were not written for, and in some respects are difficult to apply to, publicly traded interests in partnerships. The Funds apply certain assumptions and conventions intended to comply with the intent of the rules and to report income, gain, deduction, loss and credit to shareholders in a manner that reflects the shareholders’ economic gains and losses, but these assumptions and conventions may not comply with all aspects of the applicable regulations. It is possible therefore that the IRS will successfully assert that these assumptions or conventions do not satisfy the technical requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and will require that items of income, gain, deduction, loss and credit be adjusted or reallocated in a manner that could be adverse to investors.

Shareholders of each Fund may recognize significant amounts of ordinary income and short-term capital gain.

Due to the investment strategy of the Funds, the Funds may realize and pass-through to Shareholders significant amounts of ordinary income and short-term capital gains as opposed to long-term capital gains, which generally are taxed at a preferential rate. A Fund’s income, gains, losses and deductions are allocated to shareholders on a monthly basis. If you own shares in a Fund at the beginning of a month and sell them during the month, you are generally still considered a shareholder through the end of that month.

INVESTORS ARE STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISERS AND COUNSEL WITH RESPECT TO THE POSSIBLE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE SHARES OF A FUND; SUCH TAX CONSEQUENCES MAY DIFFER IN RESPECT OF DIFFERENT INVESTORS.

Regulatory changes or actions, including the implementation of new legislation, may alter the operations and profitability of the Funds.

Considerable regulatory attention has been focused on non-traditional investment pools which are publicly distributed in the United States. There is a possibility of future regulatory changes altering, perhaps to a material extent, the nature of an investment in the Funds or the ability of the Funds to continue to implement their investment strategies.

The futures markets are subject to comprehensive statutes, regulations, and margin requirements. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), CFTC and the exchanges are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of a market emergency, including, for example, the retroactive implementation of speculative position limits or higher margin requirements, the establishment of daily price limits and the suspension of trading. The regulation of swaps and futures transactions in the United States is a rapidly changing area of law and is subject to modification by government and judicial action. The effect of any future regulatory change on the Funds is impossible to predict, but could be substantial and adverse.

In particular, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Act will make sweeping changes to the way in which the U.S. financial system is supervised and regulated. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act sets forth a new legislative framework for OTC derivatives, including Financial Instruments, such as swaps, in which certain of the Funds may invest. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act makes broad changes to the OTC derivatives market, grants significant new authority to the SEC and the CFTC to regulate OTC derivatives and market participants, and will require clearing and exchange trading of many OTC derivatives transactions.

Provisions in the Dodd-Frank Act include the requirement that position limits on commodity futures contracts be established; new registration, recordkeeping, capital and margin requirements for “swap dealers” and “major swap participants” as determined by the Dodd-Frank Act and applicable regulations; and the forced use of clearinghouse mechanisms for many OTC derivative transactions. Additionally, the new law requires the aggregation, for purposes of position limits, of all positions in futures held by a single entity and its affiliates, whether such positions exist on U.S. futures exchanges, non-U.S. futures exchanges, or in OTC contracts.

The CFTC, SEC and other federal regulators have been tasked with developing the rules and regulations enacting the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. It is not possible at this time to gauge the exact nature and scope of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on any of the Funds. The new law and the rules to be promulgated may negatively impact a Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective either through limits or requirements imposed on it or upon its counterparties. In particular, new position limits imposed on a Fund or its counterparties may impact that Fund’s ability to invest in a manner that efficiently meets its investment objective, and new requirements, including capital and mandatory clearing, may increase the cost of a Fund’s investments and cost of doing business, which could adversely affect investors.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

(a) None.

(b) The Trust initially registered Shares on Form S-1 (No. 333-146801), which was declared effective on November 21, 2008, and registered additional Shares on its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-156888), which was declared effective on February 13, 2009. The Trust terminated these two offerings before the sale of all Shares registered and re-allocated the remaining amount of the Shares registered among the Funds pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-163511), which became effective on December 4, 2009, and registered additional Shares and Funds pursuant to Post-Effective Amendments to that Registration Statement, which became effective on May 28, 2010 and December 23, 2010. Additional amounts were registered pursuant to subsequent Prospectus Supplements, which aggregate total amounts are reflected in the “Amount Registered” column below. Substantially all of the proceeds received by each Fund from the issuance and sale of Shares to Authorized Participants are used by each Fund to enter into Financial Instruments relating to that Fund’s benchmark in combination with cash or cash equivalents and/or U.S. Treasury Securities or other high credit quality short-term fixed-income or similar securities (such as shares of money market funds, bank deposits, bank money market accounts, certain variable rate-demand notes and repurchase agreements collateralized by government securities, whether denominated in U.S. or the applicable foreign currency with respect to a Currency Fund) that may be used to collateralize swap agreements or forward contracts or deposited with FCMs as margin in connection with any futures transactions. Each Leveraged Fund continuously offers and redeems its Shares in blocks of 50,000 Shares. Each VIX Fund continuously offers and redeems its Shares in blocks of 25,000 Shares.
