Over the next few years, a record number of Americans will reach the maximum retirement age (65) – approximately 11,000 per day between 2024-2027. Many will face the challenge of inflation, market volatility and the longevity of their funds. Calamos created structured hedge ETFs to overcome these retirement threats, provide upside potential up to a limit and 100% downside protection over a one-year performance period: www.calamos.com/protection.
Topics covered in this webinar include:
- The perils of modern retirement and ways to mitigate them.
- Learn the essential mechanisms of structured hedge ETFs that provide 100% downside protection and enable upside potential in major equity benchmarks for one year.
- Tax alpha such as tax-deferred growth and favorable long-term capital gains rates, increasing the tax efficiency of the portfolio.

FOR PROFESSIONAL INVESTMENT USE ONLY
The information in each fund's prospectus and statement of additional information is incomplete and subject to change. We may not sell the securities of any fund until that fund's registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission becomes effective. Any fund's prospectus and statement of additional information is not an offer to sell the securities of such fund and does not solicit an offer to buy securities of such fund in any state where the offer or sale is not permitted.
Before investing, carefully consider the fund's investment objectives, risks, fees and expenses. Please have a look prospectus and summary prospectus containing this and other information which may be obtained by calling 1-866-363-9219. Read it carefully before investing.
Calamos Investments LLC, referred to herein as Calamos, is a financial services company that provides such services through its subsidiaries: Calamos Advisors LLC, Calamos Wealth Management LLC, Calamos Investments LLP and Calamos Financial Services LLC.
An investment in the Fund(s) is subject to risks and you may lose money on your investment in the Fund(s). There can be no assurance that the Fund(s) will achieve its investment objective. Your investment in the Fund(s) is not a deposit with a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. The risks associated with an investment in the Fund(s) may increase during periods of significant market volatility. The Fund(s) also have key principal risks, which are described below. More detailed information about these risks can be found in the Fund's prospectus.
Calamos Russell 2000 Structured Alt Protected ETFs are currently reflected in an initial SEC filing under the name Calamos Capital Protected Russell 2000 ETF.
Investing involves risks. Loss of principal is possible. The Fund(s) face numerous market trading risks, including authorized participation concentration risk, capital change risk, capital protection risk, upside risk, cash holding risk, default risk of clearing members, correlation risk, derivatives risk, equity securities risk, investment timing risk, large equity investment risk, liquidity risk, market maker risk, market risk, risk of non-diversification, options risk, premium discount risk, secondary trading risk, sector risk, tax risk, trading issue risk, ETF fundamental risk and valuation risk. For a detailed list of the funds' risks, see the prospectus.
There is no guarantee that the Fund(s) will be successful in providing the required protection. The results that the Fund(s) seek to provide can only be achieved if you hold shares on the first day of the result period and continue to hold them on the last day of the result period, approximately one year. There is no guarantee that results for a performance period will be realized or that the Fund(s) will achieve its investment objective. If the result period has begun and the underlying ETF has increased in value, any appreciation of the fund(s) due to increases in the underlying ETF since the start of the result period will not be protected by the required hedge, and an investor may experience loss until the underlying ETF returns to the original price at the start of the result period. Shareholders of the fund are subject to an upside return limit (the “Cap”) which represents the maximum percentage return an investor can achieve from an investment in the fund(s) for the performance period, before fees and expenses. If the result period has begun and the funds have increased in value to a level close to the limit, an investor who buys at that price has little or no ability to realize profits, but remains vulnerable to downside risks. Additionally, the Cap may rise or fall from one result period to another. The capacity and relative position of the Fund(s) should be considered before investing in the Fund(s). Website of the Fund(s), www.calamos.comprovides important information about the Fund as well as information about the possible results of an investment in the Fund(s) on a daily basis.
The fund(s) are designed to provide point-to-point exposure to the price return of the reference asset through a basket of Flex options. As a result, ETFs are not expected to move directly in line with the reference asset over the interim period. Investors who purchase shares after the start of a performance period may experience results that are very different from the fund's investment objective. The initial performance periods are approximately 1 year starting from the fund creation date. After the initial performance period, each subsequent performance period will begin on the first day of the month in which the fund was created. After one result period ends, another will begin.
FLEX Options Risk – The Fund(s) will use FLEX options issued and guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC). In the unlikely event that OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its repayment obligations, the Fund(s) could suffer substantial losses. Additionally, FLEX options may be less liquid than standard options. In a less liquid market for FLEX options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX options positions at the desired times and prices. The values of FLEX Options do not rise or fall at the same rate as the reference asset and may change due to factors other than the price of the reference asset. Shares are bought and sold at market price, not net asset value (NAV) and are not individually redeemable by the fund. NAV represents the value of each share's share of the fund's underlying assets and cash at the end of the trading day. Market price returns reflect the midpoint of the bid/ask spread as of the close of trading on the exchange where the fund's shares are listed.
100% capital protection is for a period of one year before fees and expenses. All caps are default.
CAP – The maximum percentage return that an investor can achieve from an investment in the Fund if held during the Performance Period.
Protection level – The amount of protection the Fund is designed to achieve over the remaining days.
Result period – Number of days in the result period.
