the formation of the US Postal Service, assets and information took on new meaning. And just halfway into that year, John Hancock

it's what will continue to define our way ahead.”
Hooley will be joined by clients and colleagues representing the diversity of and the many firsts achieved by State Street,
including servicing the first mutual fund; being the first company to have a global, multicurrency fund accounting platform;
creating the first US-listed exchange traded fund (ETF) in 1993; and launching SHE, the gender diversity index and ETF, in
2016.
“We are delighted to celebrate this historic milestone with State Street,” said Tom Farley, president of the New York Stock
Exchange. “Having a founding year of 1792 ourselves, at the NYSE we recognize that building a durable legacy is dependent on
constant innovation and strong stewardship. We look forward to seeing what the next 225 years will bring and what our listed
companies like State Street will do to continue shaping markets and the world around us.”

Important Risk Information:
Gender diversity risk The returns on a portfolio of securities that excludes companies that are not gender diverse may trail
the returns on a portfolio of securities that includes companies that are not gender diverse.
Concentrated investments in a particular sector or industry (technology sector and electronic media companies) tend to be
more volatile than the overall market and increases risk that events negatively affecting such sectors or industries could reduce
returns, potentially causing the value of the Fund’s shares to decrease.
Equity securities may fluctuate in value in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and
economic conditions.
Non-diversified funds that focus on a relatively small number of securities tend to be more volatile than diversified funds
and the market as a whole.
Passively managed funds hold a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full Index in terms of key risk
factors and other characteristics. This may cause the fund to experience tracking errors relative to performance of the index.
ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the
ETFs net asset value. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns.
