URGENT NOTICE
PLEASE HELP US TODAY
March 16, 2018    

Dear Shareholder,

We need your help with regard to your ownership in the Guggenheim Funds. The Funds have not yet received the required proxy votes to approve the reorganization into corresponding newly created ETFs of the PowerShares by Invesco family of funds. If the Funds’ shareholders do not vote to approve the proposal, the Guggenheim Funds’ Board will consider what action to take in the best interests of the Funds, including the possible liquidation of certain Funds.

Your vote is needed now. The special meeting of shareholders of the Claymore Exchange-Traded Fund Trust, Claymore Exchange-Traded Fund Trust 2, and the Rydex ETF Trust will be adjourned until Tuesday, April 10 to provide shareholders who have not yet cast their important proxy vote with more time to do so.

OUR RECORDS INDICATE THAT WE HAVE NOT
YET RECEIVED A VOTE FOR YOUR SHARES.

Please help us today by taking a moment to cast your vote. We need your proxy vote as soon as possible to allow us to proceed with important business of the Guggenheim Funds. The Funds’ Board recommends that shareholders of each Guggenheim Fund vote FOR the proposed Plan of Reorganization.

HOW DO I VOTE?
