**Effective December 10, 2013, Market Vectors LatAm Aggregate Bond ETF (BONO) changed its name to VanEck Vectors Emerging Markets Aggregate Bond ETF (EMAG). The Fund’s investment objective changed to seeking to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the MVIS EM Aggregate Bond Index (MVEMAG), from seeking to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the BofA Merrill Lynch Broad Latin America Bond Index (LATS). Performance data prior to December 10, 2013, reflects that of BONO and LATS. Performance data from December 10, 2013, and on, reflects that of EMAG and MVEMAG. Performance history which includes periods prior to December 10, 2013 reflects a blend of the performance of EMAG and BONO and MVEMAG and LATS and is not intended for third party use.

The "Net Asset Value" (NAV) of a VanEck Vectors Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) is determined at the close of each business day, and represents the dollar value of one share of the fund; it is calculated by taking the total assets of the fund, subtracting total liabilities, and dividing by the total number of shares outstanding. The NAV is not necessarily the same as the ETF 's intraday trading value. VanEck Vectors ETF investors should not expect to buy or sell shares at NAV.

The "After Tax Held" represents total return after taxes on distributions and assumes shares have not been sold. "After Tax Sold" represents total return after taxes on distributions and the sale of Fund shares. After-tax returns reflect the highest federal income tax rate but exclude state and local taxes. After-tax returns are based on NAV.
