About the Solactive Whitney U.S. Critical Technologies CNTR Index

The Solactive Whitney U.S. Critical Technologies CNTR Index (the “Index”) is a market-capitalization weighted index, subject to caps on individual companies, that is designed to track large- and mid-cap companies that are associated with critical technology sectors and that meet a minimum “geostrategic risk rating score”. The index universe is derived from large and mid-cap companies in developed market countries included in the Solactive GBS Developed Markets Large & Mid Cap USD Index. Companies from the index universe are eligible for inclusion in the Index if (i) they are associated with one of the 14 critical technology sectors and (ii) they receive a sufficiently high geostrategic risk rating score, each as determined pursuant to the Index selection criteria. The Index is an adjusted net total return index and the Index level reflects the notional reinvestment of the cash distributions from its constituent securities, subject to dividend withholding taxes, on distributions made by applicable non-U.S. Index constituent securities. No dividend withholding taxes are applied to distributions made by applicable U.S. Index constituent securities. The Index was first disseminated publicly on January 3, 2023 and has no live history prior to that date.
