PAOLI, Pa., Nov 20, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- RTR | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- RevenueShares Investor Services(TM), a division of Pacer Financial, Inc., announced today the availability of the RevenueShares ADR Fund(TM). The Fund will rebalance by company revenue the same securities of the S&P(R) ADR Index, a U.S. dollar denominated index of the non-U.S. companies contained in the S&P Global 1200.

The Fund will trade on the New York Stock Exchange ARCA under the ticker symbol RTR.

"The RevenueShares ADR Fund is being launched to meet the demand from investors that seek a diversified international ETF with the upside of a revenue-weighting," says Sean O'Hara, President of RevenueShares Investor Services. "Relying on an ADR index gives investors the clarity, transparency and standardization that many international funds cannot claim. The Fund combines the advantages of ADR investing with the benefits of the ranking of an S&P Index by revenue."

O'Hara notes the S&P ADR Index adds more diversification than funds that track the MSCI EAFE Index, which only includes Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. The RevenueShares ADR Fund(TM) will include those regions as well as Canada, Mexico, and South America.

The RevenueShares ADR Fund(TM) is maintained annually by Standard & Poor's(R). The Bank of New York will provide additional investor Fund services such as administrator, custodian and transfer agent. The investment advisor for the ETF offerings will be VTL Associates.

About RevenueShares

RevenueShares(TM) Investor Services, a division of Pacer Financial, Inc. provides innovative benchmark driven Exchange Traded Funds to the institutional and retail investor. By employing a patent-pending investment methodology of ranking well known benchmarks by company revenue instead of market capitalization, we believe investors are better positioned to receive higher long term returns. S&P(R) maintains the index calculations and conducts the backtesting and rebalancing. RevenueShares(TM) Investor Services launched in February 2008 and is headquartered in Paoli, PA.

Since the launch of three exchange-traded funds based on the S&P 500(R), S&P MidCap 400(TM) and S&P SmallCap 600(TM) (NYSE: RWL, RWK, RWJ) in late February, RevenueShares has gathered over $40 million in assets. For more information, please visit www.RevenueSharesETFs.com.

Before investing you should carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. This and other information is in the prospectus which can be obtained by visiting the Fund's website www.RevenueSharesETFs.com. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest.

An investment in the Funds is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of principal amount invested. Fund returns may not match the return of their respective Index, known as noncorrelation risk, due to operating expenses incurred by each Fund. The alternate weighting approach employed by the Funds (i.e., using revenues as a weighting measure), while designed to enhance potential returns, may not produce the desired results.

The ADR Fund is subject to risks associated with increased volatility in the price of small and medium capitalization companies and ADRs. The Fund is non-diversified and may have greater volatility than other diversified funds. The Fund is concentrated and may be subject to increased price volatility, adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences. The ADR Fund holds the securities of foreign companies in the form of ADRs, global shares or ordinary shares and are subject to risks including: no assurance that a market for these securities will be or remain liquid, foreign stock value may change at times when the US markets are not open, negative impact of changes in foreign currency exchanges rates, strong US dollar will reduce returns for US investors while a weak US dollar will increase those returns (currency risk).
