SCHEDULE A

ORDER TAKER / TRANSFER AGENCY SERVICES
FOR FUNDS

Following are the order taker / transfer agent services that shall be provided by Bank for the Trust in its capacity as Order Taker / Transfer Agent for each Fund.


A.	Issuance and Redemption of Shares of each Fund
	1. The Order Taker will receive creation or redemption orders via fax from Authorized Participants during the trading day and prior to a cut off time. These orders are confirmed via a follow up phone call. The Order Taker will also notify the Sponsor upon receipt of orders during the trading day. After the cutoff time is reached the Order Taker will provide the Sponsor with a consolidated report detailing all orders received. On a case by case basis if an order is received after the agreed cutoff, the Sponsor will notify the Order Taker if the order has been accepted by the counterparty. The Sponsor communicates back to the Order Taker approval or rejection of all orders and provides notification of the counterparty for each order. The Order Taker e-mails preliminary confirmations to each Authorized Participant and generates a consolidated report detailing all confirmations which is sent to the Sponsor and Bank’s Fund Accountant. Following the calculation of the NAV by Bank’s Fund Accountant, the Order Taker emails final confirmations to all parties. The Order Taker generates a Create/Redeem File which is transmitted to Bank’s Custodian to set up instructions to deposit/withdraw and settle ETF shares through DTC. The Create/Redeem File captures the corresponding counterparty for generation of the ETF share delivery instructions.

	2. Pursuant to such issuance orders that Index Receipt Agent shall receive from the Order Taker or Trust, Transfer Agent shall register the appropriate number of book entry only Shares in the name of DTC or its nominee as the sole shareholder (the “Shareholder”) for each Fund and deposit the shares of the applicable Fund in Creation Units on the business day following the trade date (T+1) to the DTC Participant Account of the Custodian for settlement. It is understood and agreed that Bank, in its capacity as Transfer Agent, Index Receipt Agent or Custodian, shall not be responsible for determining whether any order, if accepted, shall result in the depositor of the Creation Deposit owning or appearing to own eighty percent (80%) or more of the outstanding Shares of such Fund.

	3. Pursuant to such redemption orders that Index Receipt Agent shall receive from the Order Taker on behalf of the Trust, Transfer Agent shall redeem the appropriate number of Shares of the applicable Fund in Creation Units that are


	delivered to the designated DTC Participant Account of Custodian for redemption and debit such shares from the account of the Shareholder on the register of the applicable Fund.

	4. Transfer Agent shall issue Shares of the applicable Fund in Creation Units for settlement with purchasers through DTC as the purchaser is authorized to receive. Beneficial ownership of Shares shall be shown on the records of DTC and DTC Participants and not on any records maintained by the Transfer Agent. In issuing Shares of the applicable Fund through DTC to a purchaser, Transfer Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the latest Instructions that are received from the Trust or its agent by the Index Receipt Agent (as set forth in Schedule B, Section A. Subsection 3(b) of this Agreement) concerning the issuance and delivery of such shares for settlement.

	5. Transfer Agent shall not issue any Shares for a particular Fund where it has received an Instruction from the Trust or written notification from any federal or state authority that the sale of the Shares of such Fund has been suspended or discontinued, and Transfer Agent shall be entitled to rely upon such Instructions or written notification.

	6. Upon the issuance of Shares of any Fund as provided herein, Transfer Agent shall not be responsible for the payment of any original issue or other taxes, if any, required to be paid by the Trust in connection with such issuance.

	7. Shares of any Fund may be redeemed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Prospectus of the Trust and in the Authorized Participant Agreement and Bank shall duly process all redemption requests.

B.	Payment of Dividends and Distributions on Shares of each Fund.

	1. Bank shall prepare and make payments for dividends and distributions declared by the Trust on behalf of the Fund.

	payment date. The Trust’s Board of Trustees shall approve the Authorized Persons to provide such information to Bank.

	3. Upon its receipt from the Trust of the information set forth in Subsection 2 immediately above, the Administrator, based upon the amount of Shares outstanding on its books and records, shall calculate the total dollar amount of the dividend or distribution on each Fund and notify the Trust of this amount. The Trust shall verify this total dollar amount as calculated by the Administrator. Provided the Trust is in agreement with the Administrator, the Trust shall instruct the Custodian to place in a dividend disbursing account maintained by the Transfer Agent funds equal to the total cash amount of the dividend or distribution to be paid out in respect of each Fund. Should Custodian determine that it does not have sufficient cash in the Custody Account to pay the total amount of the dividend or distribution to the Transfer Agent, Custodian shall advise the Trust and the Trust shall either adjust the rate of the dividend or distribution or provide additional cash to Custodian for credit to the dividend disbursing account maintained by Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent shall credit such dividend or distribution to the account of the Shareholder.

	4. Should Transfer Agent not receive from Custodian sufficient cash to make payment as provided in the immediately preceding Subsection, Transfer Agent or Custodian shall notify the Trust, and Transfer Agent shall withhold payment to the Shareholder until sufficient cash is provided to Bank and Bank shall not be liable for any claim arising out of such withholding.
