SSgA Size and Internal Liquidity Can Lead to Significant Transaction Cost Savings

Non-US Developed Case Study (January 2001–December 2010)*

*Based on SSgA product fee schedule and actual trading activity in the Bi-Monthly EAFE ERISA Fund.**SSgA Market Cost Estimates which include commissions, bid/ask spread, market impact, and taxes/fees.

• Transaction costs are far more meaningful than index fund management fees

• For a $200 million client, the savings in the above example between SSgA's trading experience and trading in the open market represents a savings of over 30 basis points — the equivalent of 4 years of management fees*

• $150 billion in annual trading activity from SSgA's Index Funds along with over $400 billion in activity from State Street Global Markets Transition Management business results in an internal liquidity pool that has produced a significant amount of cost savings for our clients

• Seasoned commingled funds with sizeable assets under management allow for more in-kind opportunities saving clients in transaction costs

• A diverse client base with differing cash flow and rebalancing requirements coupled with over 1,000 funds benchmarked to more than 400 indices leads to considerable liquidity opportunities

• Transaction costs are far more meaningful than index fund management fees

SSgA Size and Internal Liquidity Can Lead to Significant Transaction Cost Savings

Emerging Markets Case Study (January 2001–December 2010)*

*Based on SSgA product fee schedule and actual trading activity in the Bi-Monthly Emerging Markets Non-ERISA Qualified Commingled Fund.**SSgA Market Cost Estimates which include commissions, bid/ask spread, market impact, and taxes/fees.

• Transaction costs are far more meaningful than index fund management fees

• For a $200 million client, the savings in the above example between SSgA's trading experience and trading in the open market represents a savings of over 60 basis points — the equivalent of over 3 years of management fees*

• $150 billion in annual trading activity from SSgA's Index Funds along with over $400 billion in activity from State Street Global Markets Transition Management business results in an internal liquidity pool that has produced a significant amount of cost savings for our clients

• Seasoned commingled funds with sizeable assets under management allow for more in-kind opportunities saving clients in transaction costs

• A diverse client base with differing cash flow and rebalancing requirements coupled with over 1,000 funds benchmarked to more than 400 indices leads to considerable liquidity opportunities

Positive Trends in Indexing

Broad Trends– Continued growth in assets, especially in non-US markets– Clients broadening passive exposure (e.g., S&P 500® to Russell 3000®, EAFE® to ACWI,

Investable Market Indices) – Tactical use of beta products to express investors’ views – The search for high yield (SPDR S&P Dividend Yield ETFs)– Convergence of methodologies across index providers

Advanced Beta and Alternative Indices– Low-volatility equity strategies (US, Global, and Emerging Markets exposure)– Rules-based and factor-tilt indexing strategies (e.g., quality, momentum, and value) – S&P Master Limited Partnerships (MLP) Index

More Focused ETFs– Industry funds, sector funds, style funds– Smaller shops opening funds with quasi-active indices, leverage, or distinct weighting schemes

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Portfolios– Continued interest in divestment mandates that seek conventional benchmark returns

and characteristics– Innovative indexes constructed with positive screens (e.g., US Community Investing IndexTM, Dow

Jones Sustainability World Index)

Indexing is a vital component of equity exposure

Conservative S&P 500® Index Strategy Overview

• Conservative S&P 500 Index Strategy– Replication with additive offsets– No use of derivatives for cash management and market exposure – Limited opening dates (Friday and last day of month) for cash flows

• S&P 500 Index: Exposure to 500 leading companies in leading industries– Large-cap equity covering about 75% of US market – Float-adjusted market capitalization – Continuous reconstitution– Five year average historical turnover: 4.4%

As of June 30, 2012Although some investments may exhibit certain characteristics of leverage transactions, SSgA will not borrow money or use derivatives for the S&P 500 Index Strategy in a manner that SSgA considers to have the purpose of creating investment leverage. Investments made by SSgA to hedge or reduce risk will not be considered to have been made for the purpose of creating investment leverage; SSgA generally will determine whether an investment has the effect of creating investment leverage by evaluating the effect of the investment on the exposure and risk profile of the Strategy's portfolio as a whole.Standard & Poor's S&P 500® Index is a registered trademark of Standard & Poor's Financial Services, LLC.

Objective: Seeks to match the returns and characteristics of the S&P 500 Index as closely as practicable, before expenses
