First Trust Advisors L.P., the Fund’s investment advisor, along
with its affiliate, First Trust Portfolios L.P., are privately-held
companies which provide a variety of investment services, including
asset management and financial advisory services, with collective
assets under management or supervision of approximately $111
billion as of September 30, 2017 through unit investment trusts,
exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, mutual funds and separate
managed accounts.
EIP provides advisory services to a number of investment
companies and partnerships for the purpose of investing in MLPs and
other energy infrastructure securities. EIP is one of the early
investment advisors specializing in this area. As of September 30,
2017, EIP managed or supervised approximately $5.9 billion in
client assets.
Investment return and market value of an investment in the Funds
will fluctuate. Shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than
their original cost.
Principal Risk Factors: The Funds are subject to risks,
including the fact that each Fund is a non-diversified closed-end
management investment company.
Because the Funds are concentrated in securities issued by MLPs,
MLP-related entities, and other energy and utilities companies,
they will be more susceptible to adverse economic or regulatory
occurrences affecting those industries, including high interest
costs, high leverage costs, the effects of economic slowdown,
surplus capacity, increased competition, uncertainties concerning
the availability of fuel at reasonable prices, the effects of
energy conservation policies and other factors.
The Funds invests in securities of non-U.S. issuers which are
subject to higher volatility than securities of U.S. issuers.
Because the Funds invest in non-U.S. securities, you may lose money
if the local currency of a non-U.S. market depreciates against the
U.S. dollar.
The Funds’ use of derivatives may result in losses greater than
if they had not been used, may require the Funds to sell or
purchase portfolio securities at inopportune times, may limit the
amount of appreciation the Funds can realize on an investment, or
may cause the Funds to hold a security that they might otherwise
sell.
There can be no assurance as to what portion of FIF’s
distributions paid to the Fund’s Common Shareholders will consist
of tax-advantaged qualified dividend income.
Use of leverage can result in additional risk and cost, and can
magnify the effect of any losses.

Financial advisors must determine whether particular investments
are appropriate for their clients. First Trust believes the
