Northern Trust Quality Dividend Defensive ETF seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Northern Trust Quality Dividend Defensive Index. The Underlying Index is designed to reflect the performance of a selection of companies that, in aggregate, provide exposure to a high-quality income oriented universe of long only U.S. equity securities, with an emphasis on long-term capital growth and a targeted overall beta that is generally between 0.5 to 1.0 times that of the Northern Trust 1250 Index (the "Parent Index"), a float-adjusted market-capitalization weighted index of U.S. domiciled large- and mid-capitalization companies. Beta represents the market sensitivity, relative to a given market index and time period, and is one measure of volatility. To derive the Underlying Index, NTI, acting in its capacity as the index provider (the "Index Provider"), begins with all securities in the Parent Index and then removes those securities that rank in the lowest quintile of quality based on a proprietary scoring model, as well as those which do not pay a dividend.
