In addition, 107,600,000,000 Shares remain unallocated and undesignated.

Section 5.2. Issuance of Shares.  The Board of Directors shall have the power to authorize the issuance from time to time of Shares of any Series or Class, whether now or hereafter authorized, or securities convertible into Shares of any Series or Class, whether now or hereafter authorized, for such consideration as the Board of Directors deems advisable without any action by the Shareholders (which consideration may be in cash, securities and/or other assets as determined by the Board of Directors).

Without limiting the generality of the prior paragraph or anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any Series and/or Class that operates as an ETF, the Board of Directors may determine that Shares of any ETF shall be issued and/or redeemed only in aggregations of such number of Shares and at such time as may be determined by, or determined pursuant to procedures or methods prescribed or approved by, the Board of Directors from time to time, and as may be revised by the Board of Directors from time to time. The number of Shares comprising an aggregation for purposes of issuance with respect to any Shares of an ETF or redemption with respect to any Shares of an ETF shall be referred to herein as a “Creation Unit” and, collectively, as “Creation Units” or such other term as the Board of Directors shall determine. If determined to be appropriate by the Board of Directors, references herein to Shares or holders of Shares or similar language may be deemed to mean Creation Units or holders of Creation Units.

The Board of Directors may from time to time divide or combine the Shares of any particular Series or Class into a greater or lesser number of Shares of that Series or Class without thereby changing the proportionate interest in the assets belonging to that Series or Class or in any way affecting the rights of holders of Shares of any other Series or Class.

Section 5.3. Small Accounts.  The Board of Directors may establish, from time to time, one or more minimum investment amounts for Shareholder accounts, which

may be different for each Series or Class, and which may be different within each Series or Class, and may impose account fees on (which may be satisfied by involuntarily redeeming the requisite number of Shares in any such account in the amount of such fee), and/or require the involuntary redemption of, those accounts the net asset value of which for any reason falls below such established minimum amounts, or may take any other action with respect to minimum investment amounts as may be deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors, in each case upon such terms as shall be established by the Board of Directors.

Section 5.4. Disclosure of Holdings.  The holders of Shares or other securities of the Corporation shall upon demand disclose to the Corporation in writing such information with respect to direct and indirect ownership of Shares or other securities of the Corporation as the Board of Directors or officers deem necessary to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to comply with the requirements of any other law or regulation, or as the Board of Directors may otherwise decide, and ownership of Shares may be disclosed by the Corporation if so required by law or regulation or as the Board of Directors may otherwise decide.

Section 5.5. Voting.  On each matter submitted to a vote of the Shareholders, each holder of a Share shall be entitled to one vote for each such Share standing in such holder’s name upon the books of the Corporation regardless of the Series or Class thereof, and all Shares of all Series and Classes shall vote together as a single class (“Single Class Voting”); provided, however, that (a) when the 1940 Act or the Maryland General Corporation Law requires that a Series or Class or Series or Classes vote separately with respect to a given matter, the separate voting requirements of the applicable law shall govern with respect to the affected Series or Class or Series or Classes in lieu of Single Class Voting; (b) in the event that the separate vote requirement referred to in (a) above applies with respect to one or more Series or Classes, then, subject to (b) below, the Shares of all other Series and Classes shall vote as a single class; and (c) as to any matter, which, in the judgment of the Board of Directors, does not affect the interests of a particular Series or Class, such Series or Class shall not be entitled to any vote and only the holders of Shares of the affected Series or Class or Series or Classes shall be entitled to vote.

Section 5.6. Meetings; Action by Consent.

(b) Subject to compliance with the requirements of the 1940 Act, the notice and other requirements of the Maryland General Corporation Law, and any procedures adopted by the Board of Directors from time to time, the holders of Shares or of any Series or Class or Series or Classes may take action or consent to any action by delivering a consent, in writing or by electronic transmission, of the holders entitled to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting of holders of Shares or any Series or Class or Series or Classes.

Section 5.7. Series and Classes.

(a) The Board of Directors shall have the power to classify or reclassify any unissued Shares, including by classifying or reclassifying such shares into one or more Series or Classes (which may include ETFs), by setting or changing in any one or more respects, from time to time before issuance of such shares, the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption of such Shares.

(b) The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority, without the approval of the holders of any Outstanding Shares, to increase or decrease the number of Shares or the number of Shares of any Series or Class that the Corporation has authority to issue.

(c) All consideration received by the Corporation for the issue and sale of Shares of a particular Series or Class, together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or reinvested, all income, earnings, profits and proceeds thereof, including any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be, shall be allocated and credited to that Series or Class for all purposes, subject only to the rights of creditors of such Series or Class, and shall be so recorded upon the books of account of the Corporation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) in the event that there are any assets, income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof, funds, or payments which are not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular Series or Class, the Board of Directors shall allocate them among any one or more of the Series or Classes established and designated from time to time in such manner and on such basis as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, deems fair and equitable and (b) with respect to any Dual Series if determined to be appropriate by the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors may allocate the assets, income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof, and funds and/or payments of such Series, among the Classes of the Series in such manner and on such basis as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, deems fair and equitable.

(d) The assets belonging to each particular Series or Class shall be charged with the liabilities of the Corporation in respect of that Series or Class and all expenses, costs, charges or reserves of the Corporation which are not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular Series or Class shall be allocated and charged by the Board

of Directors to and among any one or more of the Series or Classes established and designated from time to time in such manner and on such basis as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion deems fair and equitable; provided, however, that with respect to any Dual Series, the liabilities of the Corporation in respect of the Dual Series may be allocated and charged by the Board of Directors to and among the Classes of such Dual Series in such manner and on such basis as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion deems fair and equitable. Except as provided in the prior sentence, the assets of a particular Series or Class of the Corporation shall, under no circumstances, be charged with liabilities attributable to any other Series or Class of the Corporation.

All  Persons extending credit to, or contracting with or having any claims against a particular Series or Class of the Corporation shall look only to the assets of that particular Series or Class for payment of such credit, contract or claim.  No Shareholder or former Shareholder of any Series or Class shall have any claim on or right to any assets allocated or belonging to any other Series or Class.  A Shareholder of a particular Series or Class of the Corporation shall not be entitled to participate in a derivative or class action on behalf of any other Series or Class or the Shareholders of any other Series or Class of the Corporation.

(e) Subject to the terms of the Charter (including any preferences, rights and/or privileges of any Shares of any Series or Class created pursuant to this Section 5.7), each Share of each particular Series or Class shall represent an equal proportionate interest in that Series or Class.

(f) Except as otherwise provided herein (including any preferences, rights and/or privileges of any Shares of any Series or Class created pursuant to this Section 5.7), upon liquidation or termination of a Series or Class of the Corporation, Shareholders of such Series or Class shall be entitled to receive, pro rata in proportion to the number of Shares of such Series or Class held by each of them, a share of the net assets of such Series or Class, and the holders of Shares of any other particular Series or Class shall not be entitled to any such distribution, provided, however, that the composition of any such payment (e.g., cash, securities and/or other assets) to any Shareholder shall be determined by the Board of Directors, and may be different among Shareholders (including differences among Shareholders in the same Series or Class).

(g) At such times as may be determined by the Board of Directors in compliance with the 1940 Act, Shares of a particular Series or Class may be automatically converted by the Corporation into Shares of another Series or Class based on the relative net asset values of such Series or Class at the time of conversion  or on such other terms as are determined by the Board of Directors to be fair and equitable. The terms and conditions of such conversion may vary within and among the Series and Classes and within or among the holders of the Series and Classes to the extent determined by the Board of Directors.

Subject to compliance with the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to provide that the holders of any Series or Class of

Shares shall have the right to convert or exchange said shares into Shares of one or more other Series or Classes in accordance with such requirements and procedures as may be established by the Board of Directors.

(h) No holder of any stock or any other securities of the Corporation, whether now or hereafter authorized, shall have any preemptive right to subscribe for or purchase any stock or any other securities of the Corporation other than such, if any, as the Board of Directors may determine and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Board of Directors may fix; and any stock or other securities which the Board of Directors may determine to offer for subscription may, as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion shall determine, be offered to the holders of any Series, Class or type of stock or other securities at the time outstanding to the exclusion of the holders of any or all other Series, Classes or types of stock or other securities at the time outstanding.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Charter, each Share and/or each Creation Unit may be subject to such sales loads or charges, whether initial, deferred or contingent, or any combination thereof, or any other type of sales load or charge; to such expenses and fees (including, without limitation, distribution expenses, administrative expenses under an administrative or service agreement, plan or other arrangement, however designated, and other administrative, recordkeeping, redemption, service and other fees, however designated); to such account size requirements; and to such other rights and provisions; which may be the same or different from any other Share or any other Share of any Series or Class, including any other share of the same Series or Class, all as the Board of Directors may from time to time establish and/or change in accordance with the 1940 Act and as reflected or described in the Corporation’s then effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to such Shares, or such other document or instrument deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion. The Board of Directors may make or may cause to be made any determinations it deems necessary relating to a Dual Series, and any such determination made by or pursuant to the direction of the Board of Directors in good faith and consistent with the provisions of this Charter shall be final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Corporation and every holder at any time of Shares or Creation Units of such Dual Series.

Section 6.2. Redemption of Shareholder’s Shares at Option of Corporation. Subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act, each Share of the Corporation and each Share

Section 6.4. Payment.  Payment for Shares redeemed shall be made in cash or other property, or any combination thereof, out of the assets of the relevant Series or Class of the Corporation.  The composition of any such payment (e.g., cash, securities and/or other assets) shall be determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, and may be different among Shareholders (including differences among Shareholders in the same Series or Class).  In no event shall the Corporation be liable for any delay of any other person in transferring securities or other property selected for delivery as all or part of any such payment.  Payment of the redemption price shall be made by the Corporation only from the assets belonging to the Series or Class whose Shares are to be redeemed.

Section 6.5. Reductions in Number of Outstanding Shares Pursuant to Net Asset Value Formula.  The Corporation may also redeem a portion of the Shares held by each Shareholder to reduce the number of Outstanding Shares pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.3.

Section 7.1. Determination of Net Asset Value.  The Board of Directors may in its sole discretion from time to time prescribe the time or times for determining the per share net asset value of the Shares of the Corporation or any Series or Class thereof, and may prescribe or approve the procedures and methods for determining the value of the assets of the Corporation or a Series or Class thereof, and the procedures and methods for determining the net asset value of a Share of the Corporation, or a Series or a Class thereof.  The Corporation may suspend the determination of net asset value for any Series or Class during any period when it may suspend the right of Shareholders to require the Corporation to redeem Shares.

Distributions to Shareholders.  Subject to the right of the Board of Directors to delegate such powers as permitted by the Maryland General Corporation Law, the Board of Directors may in its sole discretion from time to time declare and pay, or may prescribe and set forth in a duly adopted resolution of the Board of Directors, the bases and times for the declaration and payment by duly authorized officers of the Corporation of, such dividends and distributions to Shareholders of any Series or Class thereof, in cash or other property, or any combination thereof, including any Shares or other securities of the Corporation as the Board of Directors may deem necessary or desirable, after providing for actual and accrued expenses and liabilities (including such reserves as the Board of Directors may establish) determined in accordance with good accounting practices.  If such dividends or other distributions or any portion thereof are to be paid in cash such cash may be reinvested in full and fractional Shares of the Corporation as the Board of Directors shall direct or as the Board of Directors may permit a Shareholder to direct.

Any such dividend or distribution to the Shareholders of a particular Series or Class shall be made to said Shareholders pro rata in proportion to the number of Shares of such Series or Class held by each of them, except as otherwise provided herein (including any preferences, rights and/or privileges of any Shares of any Series or Class created pursuant to Section 5.7); provided, however, that the composition of any such dividend or distribution (e.g., cash, securities and/or other assets) shall be determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, and may be different among Shareholders (including differences among Shareholders in the same Series or Class).  Any such distribution paid in Shares will be paid at the net asset value thereof as determined in accordance with Section 7.1 hereof less such fees and/or charges, if any, as may be established by the Board of Directors from time to time in accordance with the 1940 Act (or such other value not more than net asset value as may be determined by the Board and accepted by the applicable Shareholder).

Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Charter, the Board of Directors may provide that dividends and

distributions shall be payable only with respect to those Shares that have been held of record continuously by the Shareholder for a specified period prior to the record date of the dividend or distribution.
