Fund Summary
The United States Commodity Index Fund® (USCI) is an exchange-traded security. USCI is designed to be a convenient, cost-effective way for investors to access the returns of a portfolio of commodity futures contracts. USCI is listed on NYSE Arca.
The investment objective of USCI is for the daily changes in percentage terms of its shares' per share net asset value (NAV) to reflect the daily changes in percentage terms of the SummerHaven Dynamic Commodity Index Total ReturnSM (the SDCITR), less USCI's expenses.
The SummerHaven Dynamic Commodity Index Total ReturnSM is an index designed to reflect the performance of a portfolio of 14 commodity futures. The index is reformulated each month from 27 possible futures contracts. The 14 selected contracts are equally weighted and represent five sectors: petroleum (e.g., crude oil, heating oil, etc.), precious metals (e.g., gold, silver, platinum), industrial metals (e.g., zinc, nickel, aluminum, copper, etc.), grains (e.g., wheat, corn, soybeans, etc.), and non-primary sector (e.g., sugar, cotton, coffee, cocoa, natural gas, live cattle, lean hogs, feeder cattle). The SDCITR is owned and maintained by SummerHaven Index Management LLC and calculated and published by the NYSE Arca.
The SDCITRSM is rules-based and is rebalanced monthly based on observable price signals. USCI is rebalanced each month to reflect these changes to the index.
The portfolio consists of futures contracts and, to a lesser extent, in order to comply with regulatory requirements, risk mitigation measures (including those that may be taken by USCI, USCI's futures commission merchants, counterparties or other market participants), liquidity requirements, or in view of market conditions, other commodity-related forwards and swap contracts. These investments will be collateralized by cash, cash equivalents and US government obligations with remaining maturities of two years or less.

Performance
Historical NAV Performance download is not available at this time.
The performance data quoted above represents past performance. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Investment return and value of the Fund shares will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance may be lower or higher than performance data quoted.
The Fund's NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Fund's total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. Share price returns are based on closing prices for the Fund and do not represent the returns an investor would receive if shares were traded at other times.
Beginning with the commodity selection process that commenced 12/24/2020, the SDCITR was revised to consolidate the six commodity sectors that comprised the index into the five sectors as described above and to make certain other changes as described in USCI's prospectus.
† USCI commenced operations on 08/10/2010.

Creation & Redemption
Authorized Purchasers pay a $350 fee for each order to create or redeem one or more Creation Baskets or Redemption Baskets consisting of 50,000 shares. Authorized Purchasers are not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of shares. The per share price of shares offered in Creation Baskets on any day after the effective date of the registration statement is the total NAV of USCI calculated as of the close of the core trading session on the NYSE Arca on that day divided by the number of issued and outstanding shares.
USCI receives or pays the proceeds from shares sold or redeemed within three business days after the trade date of the purchase or redemption. The amounts due from Authorized Purchasers are reflected in USCI's condensed statement of financial condition as receivable for shares sold, and amounts payable to Authorized Purchasers upon redemption are reflected as payable for shares redeemed.
