ATTACHMENT A
This document supplements the Prospectus with respect to the procedures to
be used by (i) the Distributor in processing an order for the creation of
Creation Units of each Fund and (ii) the Transfer Agent in processing an order
for redemption of Creation Units of each Fund. To accommodate Participants with
restricted securities in the standard basket, the Participant may utilize
developed custom creation and redemption baskets. For a Participant to transact
in a custom basket, the Participant must acknowledge the additional procedures
described in Appendix 1 relating to custom baskets.
A Participant is required to have signed the Participant Agreement. Upon
acceptance of the Participant Agreement by the Trust, the Transfer Agent will
assign a personal identification number to each Authorized Person authorized to
act for the Participant. This will allow a Participant through its Authorized
Person(s) to place an order with respect to Creation Units.
TO PLACE AN ORDER FOR CREATION OR REDEMPTION OF CREATION UNITS
1. Call to Receive an Order Number. For Creations, an Authorized Person for
the Participant will call the telephone representative at 0-000-000-0000
(for equity Funds) or 0-000-000-0000 (for fixed income funds) not later
than the cut-off time of the Fund as set forth in the Fund's order form
(the "Order Cut-Off Time"), which is incorporated into and made a part of
this Agreement (as may be revised from time to time), to receive an Order
Number. For Redemptions, an Authorized Person for the Participant will call
the telephone representative at 0-000-000-0000 (for equity Funds) or
0-000-000-0000 (for fixed income funds) not later than the Order Cut-Off
Time to receive an Order Number.
Upon verifying the authenticity of the caller (as determined by the use of
the appropriate PIN Number) and the terms of the order, the telephone
representative will issue a unique Order Number. All orders with respect to
the creation or redemption of Creation Units are required to be in writing
and accompanied by the designated Order Number. Incoming telephone calls
are queued and will be handled in the sequence received. Calls placed
before the Order Cut-Off Time will be processed even if the call is taken
after this cut-off time. ACCORDINGLY, DO NOT HANG UP AND REDIAL. INCOMING
CALLS THAT ARE ATTEMPTED LATER THAN THE ORDER CUT-OFF TIME WILL NOT BE
ACCEPTED.
NOTE THAT THE TELEPHONE CALL IN WHICH THE ORDER NUMBER IS ISSUED INITIATES
THE ORDER PROCESS BUT DOES NOT ALONE CONSTITUTE THE ORDER. AN ORDER IS ONLY
COMPLETED AND PROCESSED UPON RECEIPT OF WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINING THE
DESIGNATED ORDER NUMBER, AUTHORIZED INDIVIDUALS' SIGNATURES AND TRANSMITTED
BY FACSIMILE (the "Order").
ORDERS FOR REDEMPTION WILL BE SUBJECT TO REJECTION IF PARTICIPANT DOES NOT
HOLD REQUISITE NUMBER OF SHARES TO FULFILL REQUEST.
2. Place the Order. An Order Number is only valid for a limited time. The
Order for creation or redemption of Creation Units must be sent by
facsimile to the telephone representative within 20 minutes of the issuance
of the Order Number. In the event that the Order is not received within
such time period, the telephone representative will attempt to contact the
Participant to request immediate transmission of the Order. Unless the
Order is received by the telephone
7
representative upon the earlier of (i) within 15 minutes of contact with
the Participant or (ii) 45 minutes after the Order Cut-Off Time, the order
will be deemed invalid.
3. Await Receipt of Confirmation.
A. Clearing Process. The Distributor (in the case of creations) or the
Transfer Agent (in the case of redemptions) shall issue a confirmation
of Order acceptance within approximately 15 minutes of its receipt of
an Order received in good form. In the event the Participant does not
receive a timely confirmation from the Distributor or the Transfer
Agent, it should contact the telephone representative at the business
number indicated.
B. Outside the Clearing Process. In lieu of receiving a confirmation of
Order acceptance, the DTC Participant will receive an acknowledgment
of Order acceptance. The DTC Participant shall deliver on settlement
date the Deposit Securities and Cash Component (in the case of
creations) or the Creation Unit size aggregation of shares on trade
date plus one (in the case of redemptions) to the Trust through DTC.
The Trust shall settle the transaction on the prescribed settlement
date.
4. Ambiguous Instructions. In the event that an Order contains terms that
differ from the information provided in the telephone call at the time of
issuance of the Order Number, the telephone representative will attempt to
contact the Participant to request confirmation of the terms of the order.
If an Authorized Person confirms the terms as they appear in the Order then
the order will be accepted and processed. If an Authorized Person
contradicts its terms, the Order will be deemed invalid and a corrected
Order must be received by the telephone representative not later than the
earlier of (i) within 15 minutes of such contact with the Participant or
(ii) 45 minutes after the Order Cut-Off Time. If the telephone
representative is not able to contact an Authorized Person, then the Order
shall be accepted and processed in accordance with its terms
notwithstanding any inconsistency from the terms of the telephone
information. In the event that an Order contains terms that are illegible,
as determined in the sole discretion of the Distributor (in the case of
creations) or the Transfer Agent (in the case of redemptions), the Order
will be deemed invalid and the telephone representative will attempt to
contact the Participant to request retransmission of the Order. A corrected
Order must be received by the telephone representative not later than the
earlier of (i) within 15 minutes of such contact with the Participant or
(ii) 45 minutes after the Order Cut-Off Time.
5. Processing an Order. The Transfer Agent reserves the right to suspend an
Order in the event that its acceptance would appear to result in the
Participant or a Beneficial Owner owning 80 percent (80%) or more of all
outstanding shares of a given Fund. In such event, the telephone
representative will attempt to contact an Authorized Person for purposes of
confirmation of the fact that with respect to such Participant no
Beneficial Owner would own 80 percent (80%) or more of all outstanding
shares of a given Fund upon execution of the Order. In the event that (i)
the telephone representative is unable to contact an Authorized Person or
(ii) the Participant fails to transmit an identical Order containing a
representation and warranty as to such fact, then the Order shall be deemed
invalid.
6. Creation of Creation Units Without Receipt of Deposit Securities. Creation
Units of the Fund may be created in advance of receipt by the Trust of all
or a portion of the applicable Deposit Securities, provided that the
Participant deposits an initial deposit of cash with the Trust having a
value greater than the net asset value of the shares on the date the order
is placed in proper form. In addition to available Deposit Securities, cash
must be deposited in an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Cash Component,
plus (ii) 115% of the market value of the undelivered
8
Deposit Securities (the "Additional Cash Deposit"). The order shall be
deemed to be received on the Business Day on which the order is placed
provided that the order is placed in proper form prior to Order Cut-Off
Time such date and federal funds in the appropriate amount are deposited
with the Trust's Custodian by 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time on settlement date. If
the order is not placed in proper form by Order Cut-Off Time or federal
funds in the appropriate amount are not received by 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time
on settlement date, then the order may be deemed to be rejected and the
Participant shall be liable to the Trust for losses, if any, resulting
there from. An additional amount of cash shall be required to be deposited
with the Trust, pending delivery of the missing Deposit Securities to the
extent necessary to maintain an amount of cash on deposit with the Trust at
least equal to 115% of the daily marked to market value of the missing
Deposit Securities. In the event that additional cash is not paid, the
Trust may use the cash on deposit to purchase the missing Deposit
Securities. The Participant will be liable to the Trust for the costs
incurred by the Trust in connection with any such purchases. These costs
will be deemed to include the amount by which the actual purchase price of
the Deposit Securities exceeds the market value of such Deposit Securities
on the day the purchase order was deemed received by the Distributor plus
the brokerage and related transaction costs associated with such purchases.
The Trust will return any unused portion of the Additional Cash Deposit
once all of the missing Deposit Securities have been properly received by
the Custodian or purchased by the Trust and deposited into the Trust. The
Trust shall charge and the Participant agrees to pay to the Trust the
Transaction Fee prescribed in the Prospectus applicable to creation or
redemption through the Clearing Process, or the Transaction Fee and such
additional fee as may be prescribed pursuant to the Prospectus applicable
to creation or redemption outside the Clearing Process. The delivery of
Creation Units of the Fund so created will occur no later than the
prescribed settlement date following the day on which the purchase order is
deemed received by the Distributor.

APPENDIX 1--PROCEDURES SPECIFIC TO CUSTOM BASKETS
To accommodate Participants with restricted securities in the standard
basket of a Fund, State Street has developed custom creation and redemption
baskets (the "Custom Baskets"). Custom Baskets are intended to allow
Participants with restricted issues in a particular Fund, to transact in that
Fund using the Custom Basket process. The Custom Basket process substitutes
cash-in-lieu for the restricted securities. It is the responsibility of the
Participant to apply to the NSCC by contacting DTCC Relationship Services Group
at 0-000-000-0000 to allow them to receive Custom Baskets as well as the regular
daily standard baskets (the "Standard Baskets"). To ensure proper tracking of
the Fund to its benchmark index the following guidelines must be followed when
transacting Custom Baskets:
1. On or before T-1, the Participant must request a Custom Basket from the
Transfer Agent by calling 0-000-000-0000 (for equity Funds) or
0-000-000-0000 (for fixed income funds). The Transfer Agent will fax a
custom basket form on which the Participant must identify the restricted
securities to be omitted from the creation or redemption basket. At this
time, the Participant is limited to substituting cash-in-lieu only for
restricted issues. Participants may request that the Custom Basket be
available for creations and redemptions for a one-time transaction, a
specific period or indefinitely. The Transfer Agent will review the Custom
Basket request and, if approved, will deliver a confirmation back to the
Participant. In the event subsequent additions and/or deletions to
restricted issues are required to change the custom basket already
approved, the Participant is responsible for completing a new standard form
with the Transfer Agent.
2. On trade date, prior to the opening of the NYSE, State Street will notify
NSCC as to the components of the approved Custom Baskets available that day
along with the components of the Standard Basket. Each Custom Basket will
be identified by a separate NSCC assigned instruction CUSIP.
3. On trade date, the Participant will follow the directions regarding placing
orders outlined in Attachment A. A Participant wishing to create or redeem
a Custom Basket must identify the custom CUSIP on the order form in the
blank provided. Orders received without a custom CUSIP indicated will be
processed as orders for Standard Baskets. Participants placing orders for
Custom Baskets must note that the cut-off-time to create and redeem a
Custom Basket will be no later than the custom basket order time of the
Fund as set forth in the Fund's order form (the "Custom Basket Order
Cut-Off Time"). ORDERS FOR CUSTOM BASKETS WILL NOT BE PROCESSED IF RECEIVED
BY AFTER THE CUSTOM BASKET ORDER CUT-OFF TIME. The Participant must
transact on the Standard Basket after the Custom Basket Order Cut-Off Time.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Participant acknowledges that he or she has read
the procedures relating to Custom Baskets and agrees to comply with all such
procedures. Failure to comply with the Custom Basket procedures will require the
transaction to be effected in Standard Basket
