REFERENCE INDEX:
The ISE Cyber Security Index is comprised of domestic and foreign companies that are cyber security infrastructure providers (hardware/software developers) or that provide cyber security services, and for whom cyber security is a key driver of the company’s business.

Cyber security refers to products, such as hardware or  software,  and  services  designed  to  protect  computer hardware, software, networks and data from unauthorized access, vulnerabilities, attacks and other security breaches.International  Securities  Exchange,  LLC  (“ISE”  or  “Index Provider”) utilizes proprietary research and analysis, which includes reviewing a variety of publicly available information, such as financial statements and other reports provided by issuers to determine if a company is actively engaged in providing cyber security infrastructure such as hardware or software (“Infrastructure Sector”) or cyber security services (“Service Provider Sector”). Companies are then screened by the Index Provider for investibility, which requires a company not be listed on an exchange in a country that has certain restrictions on foreign capital investment, has a minimum market capitalization of $100 million,  meets  liquidity  requirements  and  is  an  operating company (rather than a pass-through security). Exposure to a company is capped at 20% and the cumulative weighting of all companies with an individual weighting of 5% or greater do not in the aggregate account for more than 50% of the weighting of the  Index.  The  Index’s  components  are  reviewed  and rebalanced  semi-annually;  however,  weightings may  be adjusted in between rebalance dates if a company’s Index weighting exceeds 20% of the Index. The Index uses market capitalization weighted allocation across the Infrastructure and Service  Provider  Sectors  as  well  as  an  equal-weighted allocation for all components within each sector allocation.

As of August 18, 2015, the Index was comprised of 32 stocks. The Index has an average market capitalization of $8.5 billion and a market capitalization range of  $97.7 million to $143.7 billion as of August 18, 2015.
