SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

number, or for an applicant using the 

Company name box, at http://

www.sec.gov/search/search.htm or by 

calling (202) 551–8090. 

Applicants 

1. The Trust is a business trust 

organized under the laws of the State of 

Delaware and will consist of one or 

more series operating as a Fund. The 

Trust is registered as an open-end 

management investment company 

under the Act. Applicants seek relief 

with respect to Funds (as defined 

below), including an initial Fund (the 

‘‘Initial Fund’’). The Funds will offer 

exchange-traded shares utilizing active 

management investment strategies as 

contemplated by the Reference Order.2

2. The Initial Adviser, a Delaware 

corporation, will be the investment 

adviser to the Initial Fund. Subject to 

approval by the Funds’ board of 

trustees, an Adviser (as defined below) 

will serve as investment adviser to each 

Fund. The Initial Adviser is, and any 

other Adviser will be, registered as an 

investment adviser under the 

Investment Advisers Act of 1940 

(‘‘Advisers Act’’). The Adviser may 

enter into sub-advisory agreements with 

other investment advisers to act as subadvisers with respect to the Funds (each 

a ‘‘Sub-Adviser’’). Any Sub-Adviser to a 

Fund will be registered under the 

Advisers Act. 

3. The Distributor, a Pennsylvania 

corporation, is a broker-dealer registered 

under the Securities Exchange Act of 

1934, as amended, and will act as the 

distributor and principal underwriter of 

Shares of the Funds. Applicants request 

that the requested relief apply to any 

distributor of Shares, whether affiliated 

or unaffiliated with the Adviser and/or 

Sub-Adviser (included in the term 

‘‘Distributor’’). Any Distributor will 

comply with the terms and conditions 

of the Order. 

Applicants’ Requested Exemptive Relief 

4. Applicants seek the requested 

Order under section 6(c) of the Act for 

an exemption from sections 2(a)(32), 

5(a)(1), 22(d) and 22(e) of the Act and 

rule 22c–1 under the Act, and under 

sections 6(c) and 17(b) of the Act for an 

exemption from sections 17(a)(1) and 

17(a)(2) of the Act. The requested Order 

would permit applicants to offer Funds 

that utilize the NYSE Proxy Portfolio 

Methodology. Because the relief 

requested is the same as certain of the 

relief granted by the Commission under 

the Reference Order and because the 

Initial Adviser has entered into a 

licensing agreement with NYSE Group, 

Inc. in order to offer Funds that utilize 

the NYSE Proxy Portfolio 

Methodology,3 the Order would 

incorporate by reference the terms and 

conditions of the same relief of the 

Reference Order. 

5. Applicants request that the Order 

apply to the Initial Fund and to any 

other existing or future registered openend management investment company 

or series thereof that: (a) Is advised by 

the Initial Adviser or any entity 

controlling, controlled by, or under 

common control with the Initial Adviser 

(any such entity, along with the Initial 

Adviser, included in the term 

‘‘Adviser’’); (b) offers exchange-traded 

shares utilizing active management 

investment strategies as contemplated 

by the Reference Order; and (c) 

complies with the terms and conditions 

of the Order and the terms and 

conditions of the Reference Order that 

are incorporated by reference into the 

Order (each such company or series and 

the Initial Fund, a ‘‘Fund’’).4

6. Section 6(c) of the Act provides that 

the Commission may exempt any 

person, security or transaction, or any 

class of persons, securities or 

transactions, from any provisions of the 

Act, if and to the extent that such 

exemption is necessary or appropriate 

in the public interest and consistent 

with the protection of investors and the 

purposes fairly intended by the policy 

and provisions of the Act. Section 17(b) 

of the Act authorizes the Commission to 

exempt a proposed transaction from 

section 17(a) of the Act if evidence 

establishes that the terms of the 

transaction, including the consideration 

to be paid or received, are reasonable 

and fair and do not involve 

overreaching on the part of any person 

concerned, and the transaction is 

consistent with the policies of the 

registered investment company and the 

general purposes of the Act. Applicants 

submit that for the reasons stated in the 

Reference Order the requested relief 

meets the exemptive standards under 

sections 6(c) and 17(b) of the Act. 

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Investment Management, pursuant to 

delegated authority.

Assistant Secretary.
