State Street Global Advisors Code of Ethics   The Purpose of this Code of Ethics   State Street Global Advisors+ (the “Firm”) will not tolerate misuse of information made available to us for the purpose of making investment decisions or providing advice to our clients. To do so would be a breach of trust that our clients place in us and may also breach securities laws.   What is the Code of Ethics?   The State Street Global Advisors Code of Ethics (the “Code”) is designed to promote compliance with regulations that apply to our business and to ensure Firm personnel meet expected standards of conduct. The Code is supplemental to the State Street Standard of Conduct, and Firm personnel are required to comply with both.   In certain countries outside the US, local laws, regulations or customs may impose additional requirements. Personnel located in countries outside the US must also refer to Appendix D for information on those additional requirements.   The Ethics Office administers this Code in coordination with State Street Global Advisors’ Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”).   Who is subject to the Code of Ethics?   The Code of Ethics applies to you if:   •  You are a full-time or part-time employee at State Street Global Advisors;   •  You are a contingent worker at State Street Global Advisors and have been notified that you are subject to the Code of Ethics;   •  You are an officer of the registered investment companies managed* by SSGA Funds Management, Inc. (“SSGA FM”) who is not employed by the Firm, but is employed by another business unit with access to Firm data such as non-public information regarding any client’s purchase or sale of securities, non-public information regarding any client’s portfolio holdings, or non-public securities recommendations made to clients; or   •  The Ethics Office has designated you as a person subject to the Code of Ethics.   For the purposes of the remainder of this document, those personnel who are subject the Code of Ethics will be called “Covered Persons”.   If you are a Covered Person, the requirements of this Code also apply to people related to you, such as spouses, domestic partners, minor children, financial dependents, including adult children and other relatives living in your household if they are financially dependent on you, as well as other persons designated as Covered Persons by the CCO or the Ethics Office, or their designee(s). Effective: April 16, 2020    

+ For purposes of this Code of Ethics, “State Street Global Advisors” refers to all State Street Global Advisors legal entities globally.

* This excludes registered investment companies for which SSGA FM serves as sub-adviser.

Alternatively, you may contact the Senior Compliance Officer in your region, the CCO, or, to report anonymously, The Speakup Line (see Appendix E for contact information).

Nothing in the Code is intended to or should be understood to prohibit or otherwise discourage certain disclosures of confidential information protected by “whistleblower” laws to appropriate government authorities.

Information Classification: General 7

Personal Trading Requirements – Accounts and Holdings

Applicable to All Covered Persons

You must disclose all Reportable Accounts (as defined on page 10) when you become a Covered Person and continue to make accurate and timely account and holding reports. If you are an employee in the US, you must maintain your account(s) with an Approved Broker. Employees in other regions are encouraged to maintain accounts with “Preferred Brokers” where available. All Covered Persons must ensure the Ethics Office receives timely and accurate reporting from your broker.

004. File Initial and Annual Holding Reports

Covered Persons must file initial and annual holdings reports (“Holdings Reports”) in StarCompliance as follows:

a. Content of Holdings Reports

i. The name of any broker, dealer or bank with whom the Covered Person maintained a Reportable Account. Please note that all Reportable Accounts (see page 10) must be reported in StarCompliance.

ii. The title, number of shares and principal amount of each Covered Security.

b. Timing of Holdings Reports

i. Initial Report – No later than 10 calendar days after becoming a Covered Person. The information must be current as of a date no more than 45 days prior to the date the Covered Person became an Access Person, Investment Person, or Non-Access Person.

ii. Annual Report – Annually, within 30 calendar days following calendar year end, and the information must be current as of a date no more than 45 calendar days prior to the date the report is submitted.

c. Exceptions from Holdings Report Requirements

i. Holdings in securities which are not Covered Securities are not required to be included in Holdings Reports (please see Appendix C).

Any Reportable Accounts opened during the Covered Person’s employment or engagement with the Firm must also be immediately disclosed in StarCompliance regardless of whether there is any activity in the account. Any Reportable Accounts and holdings that become newly associated with a Covered Person through marriage, gift, inheritance, or any other life event, must be disclosed within 30 days of the event.

005. Provide Duplicate Statements and Confirms

Each Covered Person is responsible for ensuring the Ethics Office receives timely reporting for their Reportable Accounts holdings, (as well as timely reporting for transactions of Covered Securities within the Reportable Account). This applies to any Reportable Accounts (including Fully Managed Accounts) active during the Covered Person’s employment or engagement with the Firm. Covered Persons must ensure that on a regular basis the Ethics Office or their designee(s) receives account statements (e.g. monthly, quarterly statements) listing all transactions for the reporting period. (See Section 007 – Filing Quarterly Transaction Reports.)

The Covered Person can accomplish this one of two ways:

a. Maintain Reportable Accounts at Approved Brokers (or Preferred Brokers for employees based in non-US jurisdictions, where available). Approved Brokers and Preferred Brokers send electronic feeds to the Ethics Office; Covered Persons are not required to provide paper-based reporting for accounts with Approved Brokers or Preferred Brokers. However, it is the responsibility of the Covered Person to verify the accuracy of these feeds through Quarterly Transaction Reports and Annual Holdings Reports. Employees in the US, with limited exceptions, are required to maintain their accounts at Approved Brokers. (See Section 006- Maintain Accounts with Approved Brokers.)

Information Classification: General 8

b. For accounts not on an electronic feed, the Covered Person must supply the Ethics Office with required duplicate documents. Please see Appendix D for regional requirements.

006. Maintain Accounts with Approved Brokers (US Employees) or Preferred Brokers (Non-US employees)

Unless an exemption applies, Covered Persons must maintain accounts with Approved Brokers or Preferred Brokers if required in their region. Please refer here: Link to Broker List, Guidance and FAQs for regional requirements and for a list of Approved Brokers. The Approved Brokers provide both the holdings and transaction activity in each account through an electronic feed into StarCompliance.

The categorical exemptions to the Approved Broker and Preferred Broker requirement are:

a. Accounts approved by the Ethics Office as Fully Managed Accounts (also known as Discretionary Accounts. See Appendix A.)

b. Accounts that are part of a former employer’s retirement plan (such as a 401(k)); or accounts that are part of a spouse’s or other Covered family member’s retirement plan at their employer.

c. Employees who are not US citizens and are working in the US on an ex-pat assignment or whose status is non-permanent resident.

d. Securities held in physical form.

e. Securities restricted from transfer.

f. Accounts held by employees, or any Covered Persons, in countries outside the region where they are currently assigned, which are not eligible for transfer to an Approved or Preferred Broker in that region.

To apply for an exception to maintain an account outside of an Approved Broker, contact the Ethics Office at ethics@statestreet.com.

Please see Appendix D for additional regional requirements.

Information Classification: General 9

Reportable Accounts Guide   To determine whether an account is a Reportable Account, determine who owns or benefits from the account and what types of investments the account can hold. If you have a beneficial interest in an account and the account can hold Covered Securities, it is likely a Reportable Account.   What is a Beneficially Owned Account?   A Beneficially Owned Account is:   •  An account where the Covered Person enjoys the benefits of ownership (even if title is held in another name); and/or   •  An account where the Covered Person, either directly or indirectly, has investment control or the power to vote or influence the transaction decisions of the account.   Generally, an individual is considered to be a beneficial owner of accounts or securities when the individual has or shares direct or indirect pecuniary interest in the accounts or securities. Pecuniary interest means that an individual has the ability to profit, directly or indirectly, or share in any profit from a transaction. Indirect pecuniary interest extends to, but is not limited to:   •   Accounts and securities held by immediate family members sharing the same household;   •   Securities held in trust (certain restrictions may apply, see Appendix C for more details); and   •   A right to acquire Covered Securities through the exercise or conversion of any derivative security, whether or not presently exercisable No Reporting Required   •  Checking and savings accounts holding only cash   •  Government-subsidized pension saving products   •  Pension Accounts established under the Hong Kong regulation or Singapore Regulation with no capacity to invest in Covered Securities   •  Savings Plans within the course of company pension schemes which only allow unaffiliated open-end mutual funds   •  Educational Savings Plans which only allow unaffiliated open-end mutual funds   •  Other Registered Commingled Funds (such as IRC 529 Plans in the US)   When in doubt, contact the Ethics Office ethics@statestreet.com

What are Covered Securities?

For a complete list of Covered Securities, see Appendix C. Some of the most common types are listed below.

• Stocks, including State Street Corp. (“STT”)

• Exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”)

• Exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”)

• Open-ended mutual funds advised by the Firm

• Municipal and Corporate bonds

Information Classification: General 10

Do I Have to Report this Account?     Common Reportable Account Types   The list of account types below is not all-inclusive. Consult the Ethics Office if you have questions about whether an account is a Reportable Account.   •   Brokerage Account   All brokerage accounts are reportable, including but not limited to retirement accounts, non-retirement accounts, IRAs, RRSPs, UTMA and UGMA accounts. For further definition see Appendix A.   •   Employee Incentive Awards Deposit Account Provided by the Firm   Accounts that are provided to employees into which their Employee Incentive Awards are deposited are reportable.   •   Employee Stock Ownership and Purchase Plans (“ESOPs”/ “ESPPs”)   •   Employer-sponsored Retirement Plans that invest/hold Covered Securities Practical Examples of Beneficial Ownership   See Appendix B for a more detailed discussion of Beneficial Ownership. For the purposes of this sidebar, “you” includes you, your spouse or domestic partner, or anyone else in your household who would be covered by the Code of Ethics, as discussed on page 4.   UGMA/UTMA Accounts   If you are the custodian of an UGMA/UTMA account for a minor, and one or both of you is a parent of the minor, you are a beneficial owner. If you are the beneficiary of an UGMA/UTMA and are of majority age, you are a beneficial owner.   Education Accounts   If you are the custodian of an Education Savings Account (ESA), or Coverdell IRA, you are a beneficial owner.   Trusts   If you are a trustee or the settlor of the trust who can independently revoke the trust and participate in making investment decisions for the trust, you are a beneficial owner.   If you are a beneficiary of the trust but have no investment control, the account is beneficially owned as of the date the trust is distributed, not before.   Investment Powers over an Account   If you have any form of investment control, such as trading authorization or power of attorney, the account is beneficially owned as of the date you are able to direct or participate in the trading decisions.

Employer-sponsored retirement plans and accounts globally in which the employee/participant invests in or transacts in Covered Securities are reportable. Please see Appendix G “Code of Ethics FAQs” for further clarification on Reportable Retirement Plans.

Information Classification: General 11

Personal Trading Requirements – Transactions

Applicable to All Covered Persons

The Code of Ethics requires quarterly reporting of all Covered Transactions and imposes restrictions on certain types of transactions.

007. Filing Quarterly Transaction Reports

Each Covered Person shall also certify that the Reportable Accounts listed in the transaction report are the only Reportable Accounts in which Covered Securities were traded during the quarter for their direct or indirect benefit. For the purposes of this report, transactions in Covered Securities that are effected in Automatic Investment Plans or accounts approved by the Ethics Office as Fully Managed Accounts need not be reported.

Covered Persons must file quarterly transaction reports (“Transaction Reports”) in StarCompliance

a. Quarterly Transactions Report For Transactions in Covered Securities are reported on a standardized form in StarCompliance that identifies the date, security, price, volume, amount, and effecting broker of each Covered Security transaction.

b. Quarterly Transactions Report For Newly Established Reportable Accounts reported in StarCompliance Holding ANY Securities (provided there were transactions during the quarter) include the broker dealer or bank with whom the reportable account is held, the date the account was opened, and the date the report was submitted to Ethics.

c. Timing of Transactions Report: No later than 30 calendar days after the end of the calendar quarter

d. Exception from Transactions Report Requirements

c. Transactions effected in a previously-approved Fully Managed Account.

e. Confirmation of Trades

a. Employees must confirm their transactions in StarCompliance after execution and before or simultaneously with their quarterly transaction certification.

b. If an electronic feed has been set up for broker account (e.g. Fidelity account), the trading data will flow automatically to StarCompliance overnight, however, it is still the employee’s responsibility to maintain accurate data in StarCompliance and it is best practice to check whether electronic feeds were accurate by checking records in StarCompliance prior to completing a quarterly certification.

f. State Street Employee Incentive Stock Awards

a. STT employee incentive stock awards must be treated as Covered Securities. Employees receiving awards during a quarter should ensure any awards vested during the quarter are appropriately reflected in their holdings, and

b. All employees must preclear any transactions in STT (note, STT employee incentive awards are not subject to the 60 day profit prohibition when they become vested).

Information Classification: General 12

008. Excessive Trading

Excessive trading may interfere with job performance or compromise the duty that the Firm owes to clients and consequently is not permitted. Levels of personal trading will be monitored by the Ethics Office and high levels of personal trading will be reported to senior management A pattern of excessive trading may lead to action under the State Street Conduct Standards Policy.

009. Futures, Options, Contracts for Difference, and Spread Betting

Covered Persons are prohibited from buying or selling options and futures on Covered Securities (other than employee stock options). Covered Persons are also prohibited from engaging in Contracts for Difference (“CFDs”) and spread betting related to Covered Securities.

010. Shorting of Securities

Covered Persons are prohibited from selling securities short.

011. Initial Public Offerings

An exception may be considered for situations where the spouse/domestic partner/partner of a Covered Person (“PACs”) is eligible to acquire shares in an IPO of his/her employer with prior written disclosure to and written approval from the Ethics Office.

012. Private Transactions

Covered Persons must obtain prior written approval from the Ethics Office before participating in a Private Placement or any other private securities transaction. To request prior approval, Covered Persons must provide the Ethics Office with a completed Private Placement Request form, which is available on StarCompliance.

If the request is approved, the Covered Person must confirm the transaction in StarCompliance, verify the details on the next Quarterly Transaction Report, and report the holding on the Annual Holdings Report. If the transaction has already been loaded to the Covered Person’s Transaction report, the Covered Person must confirm the transaction in the Quarterly Transacton Report.

Covered Persons may not invest in Private Transactions if the opportunity to invest could be considered a favor or gift designed to influence the Covered Person’s judgment in the performance of his/her job duties, or as compensation for services rendered to the issuer, or if there are any other potential conflicts of interest with State Street business. In determining whether to grant approval for any investment for a Private Transaction, the Ethics Office will consider, among other things, whether it would be possible (and appropriate) to reserve that investment opportunity for one or more of the Firm’s clients, as well as whether the opportunity to invest has been offered to the Covered Person as a gift, or as compensation for services rendered.

See Appendix A for definition and Appendix D for further regional definitions in France and Italy.

013. Investment Clubs and Investment Contests

Covered Persons must obtain prior written approval from the Ethics Office before participating in an Investment Club. If approved, the brokerage account(s) of the Investment Club are subject to the Approved Broker, pre-clearance and reporting requirements of the Code. Sharing research or other proprietary information obtained through employment with State Street with Investment Club participants is prohibited.

Information Classification: General 13

Covered Persons are prohibited from direct or indirect participation in an investment contest. These prohibitions extend to the direct or indirect acceptance of payment or offers of payments of compensation, gifts, prizes, or winnings as a result of participation in such activities.

014. Use of the Firm’s Proprietary Information

• Information about Firm or issuer business strategies, technologies, or ideas;

• client or proprietary transactions;

• changes to recommended portfolio weightings, portfolio composition, or target prices for any security;

• voluntary actions to be taken on any corporate actions;

• research produced by employees of the Firm that could influence client investment decisions, such as employees’ recommendations in Tamale and ArtPro; or

• any other information that may reasonably be expected could influence an investor’s decision-making that has not been made public without violation of law or our policies.

The definition of Proprietary Information does not include information that has been made public or comes from a service that broadly disseminates published information, such as Bloomberg. You should always assume that information is confidential, and treat it as such, unless it is clearly indicated otherwise. It is our responsibility to protect Proprietary Information and Confidential Information against unintentional, malicious, or unauthorized disclosure or misuse. Any pattern of personal trading suggesting misuse of proprietary information may be investigated. Any misuse or distribution of information that is proprietary, confidential, or non-public is prohibited.

Applicable to Access Persons and Investment Persons

During certain trading windows, employees may be permitted to exercise Employee Incentive Awards without being subject to the blackout and open order rules. However, these transactions remain subject to the pre-clearance and reporting requirements of the Code at all times. Employees will be notified when a trading window commences and terminates. During this period, all employees remain subject to the State Street

Information Classification: General 14

Global Advisors Inside Information/Information Barrier Policy and Procedure, as well as the Personal Trading in Securities section of the State Street Standard of Conduct.   Additionally, certain employees of the Firm are subject to the State Street Securities Trading Policy (“SSTP”) and will be notified of this by the Ethics Office. Employees subject to SSTP must also comply with all notifications under that Policy.   Pre-Clearance   The Pre-Clearance requirement mitigates the risk of creating actual or perceived conflicts of interest with the trading activities made on behalf of Firm clients. With limited exceptions, pre-clearance approval is required before you make any personal trades of Covered Securities.   It applies to all your Reportable Accounts, including those belonging to, or in which, your spouse or other Covered family member has an economic interest or control. (See Appendix B)   It applies to transactions in most types of securities, including transactions in State Street Corp. stock (STT). (See Appendix C)   Exempted Transactions   Pre-clearance is not required for certain common transactions.   Automatic Investment Plans   Prior Notification to Ethics Office Required Purchases or sales that are part of an Automatic Investment Plan where the investment decisions are non-discretionary after the initial selections by the account owner (although the initial selection requires pre-clearance). These include dividend reinvestment plans, payroll and employer contributions to retirement plans, transactions in Employee Stock Ownership Programs (“ESOPs”) and similar services. Initiation of an Automatic Investment Plan must be disclosed to the Ethics Office in advance.   Certain Exempt Covered Securities   Transaction(s) in Covered Securities for which the Ethics Office has determined pre-clearance is not required (see Appendix C).   Discretionary Accounts (Fully Managed Accounts)   Prior Approval from Ethics Office Required Subject to prior approval of the account from the Ethics Office, transactions made in a Discretionary Account. An account will not be deemed a Discretionary Account until the Ethics Office has approved the account as such.   Certain Educational Savings Plans   Transactions in educational savings plans that only allow unaffiliated open-end mutual funds, unit-investment trusts, or other registered commingled products (such as IRC 529 Plans in the US).   Involuntary Transactions   Involuntary purchases or sales such as mandatory tenders, dividend reinvestments, broker disposition of fractional shares, debt maturities. Voluntary tenders, transactions executed as a result of a margin call, and other non-mandatory corporate actions are to be pre-cleared, unless the timing of the action is outside the control of the Covered Person, or the Ethics Office has determined pre-clearance is not required for a particular voluntary transaction.   Gifts or Inheritance   Covered Securities received via a gift or inheritance, although such Covered Securities must be reported in StarCompliance. Note that pre-clearance is required prior to giving or donating Covered Securities.

Information Classification: General 15

Personal Trading Requirements – Pre-Clearance

Applicable to Access Persons and Investment Persons

You are required to receive pre-clearance approval before trading in any Covered Security, with limited exceptions. This applies to transactions made by your spouse, other Covered family member and/or in any other accounts in which you or they have beneficial ownership or control.

017. Pre-Clearance

Access Persons and Investment Persons must request and receive pre-clearance approval prior to effecting a personal transaction in all Covered Securities (see Appendix C).

a. All pre-clearance requests must be made by submitting a Trade Request for the amount of shares to be transacted in StarCompliance.

b. Pre-clearance is required for donations and/or gifts of securities made.

Trade requests may be approved or denied at the discretion of the Ethics Office, In general, a transaction will be denied if the Covered Security is on any relevant Restricted List or if the Ethics Office has reason to believe that the Covered Person has access to relevant information concerning the security or the issuer that is intended for the sole purpose of the Firm or its clients. If the Covered Person has access to such information, it is the Covered Person’s responsibility not to seek pre-clearance nor to trade in the security even if pre-clearance approval has been granted. For Investment Persons, a transaction may also be denied if the Covered Security is actively being purchased or sold for a client account or account of a Fund, or the Covered Security has been traded within seven days in a portfolio for which they have management discretion.

018. Restricted List   To manage potential conflicts of interest, lists of issuers whose securities (including options and futures) may not be traded are integrated into the pre-clearance approval process. A security that you already own could be placed on a Restricted List at any time. If this happens, you may be unable to sell the security until it is removed from any Restricted List. Employees are not entitled to review any Restricted List.   The contents of any Restricted Lists shall be considered material non-public information and is subject to the considerations of the Inside Information/Information Barrier Policy and Procedure.

019. Pre-Clearance Approval

Pre-clearance approval granted by the Ethics Office is valid only for the same business day the approval is granted and is ineffective on all dates where the relevant Exchange is not open for business. Make note of any expiration time and date displayed on any approved Trade Request. Because approvals are strictly time-limited, place day orders only. “Good-till-cancelled” orders are not permitted, including stop-loss, limit, and stop-limit orders other than day orders. This is a result of the pre-clearance function relying upon point-in-time data in order to have any effect.

Information Classification: General 16

Applicable to Investment Persons

020. Open Order Rule

Subject to the de minimis transaction threshold (Section 023-De Minimis Transactions), Investment Persons may not trade in a Covered Security, with the exception of ETFs, on any day that the Firm, globally, has a pending buy or sell order in the same Covered Security on any of the trading desk(s) for any client or proprietary fund portfolio until the order is executed or withdrawn (note: Executed trades are considered with regards to the Blackout Period, as outlined below).

021. Blackout Period for Investment Persons

Subject to the de minimis transaction threshold described below, Investment Persons may not buy or sell a Covered Security for seven calendar days before or after a transaction in the same or equivalent security for a client or proprietary fund portfolio with which they are associated. An employee is considered “associated” with a client or proprietary fund portfolio if they have ability to exercise, or direct, trades for the portfolio.

All Covered Persons are required to avoid placing their personal interest ahead of the interests of the clients of the Firm. Investment Persons associated with portfolios with fundamental strategies must be particularly careful not to engage in personal trading that calls into question whether they have placed their interests ahead of the interest of their clients. Trading in securities personally in advance of similar trades made by the respective Portfolio may lead to questions about the Covered Person’s priorities. In such cases, it will be incumbent upon the Covered Person to demonstrate that the clients’ priorities were not subordinated to their own priorities. Similarly, failing to trade in a security for a Portfolio because of a personal trade that has recently been made is also a subordination of client interest. Covered Persons with responsibility for portfolios with fundamental strategies finding themselves needing to violate the Blackout Period in order to avoid placing their personal interest ahead of the clients’ interest must inform the Ethics Office. Such violations are subject to action under the State Street Conduct Standards policy.

022. Waiting Period for Research Analysts

Research Analysts with access to tools containing proprietary buy or sell recommendations, who receive internal communications regarding buy or sell recommendations, or participate in investment meetings where buy or sell recommendations are discussed, must refrain from trading in securities that are the subject of such recommendations for their personal account if it could reasonably be presumed that such information was relevant to an investment decision. Examples of recommendations that could reasonably be presumed to be relevant to investment decisions on behalf of client portfolios include but are not limited to buy or sell recommendations, internal analyst upgrades or downgrades related to an issuer, changes to recommended portfolio weightings, portfolio composition, or target prices for any security, or recommendations regarding voluntary corporate actions. Examples of information that are not presumed to be relevant to investment decisions include market analyses, economic updates, or financial updates regarding an issuer that do not also include a buy/sell recommendation or ratings analysis. Research Analysts who trade Covered Securities for their personal account in close proximity to proprietary investment recommendations regarding the same issuer should expect heightened monitoring of such trades. If there is a reason to question whether such trades were made on the basis of confidential or proprietary non-public information, it will be incumbent upon the Covered Person to demonstrate otherwise.    

Please see Appendix D for additional regional requirements.

Information Classification: General 17

023. De Minimis Transactions

De Minimis transactions are subject to the pre-clearance and reporting requirements of the Code; and must follow all holding period and Restricted List requirements of this Code. However, there is a limited exclusion applied for De Minimis transactions in that they are not subject to the Open Order Rule or the Blackout Rule as described above. This exclusion exists because of the breadth and frequency with which securities are being traded across all of the portfolios of the Firm, which would effectively prohibit almost all equity trading by Investment Persons.

A “De Minimis transaction” is a personal trade that meets one of the following conditions: A single transaction in a security with a value equal to or less than US $5,000 (or the local country equivalent) or multiple transactions in a security within a five business day window that have an aggregate value equal to or less than US $5,000.

De Minimis Transaction Examples: (All values are in US Dollars)

Status	Transaction(s)	Notes
De minimis	Day One: Buy $5,000 of ABC, Inc.	No subsequent transactions in the following five business days
De minimis	Day One: Sell $1,000 of XYZ Corp. Day Two: Sell $3,000 of XYZ Corp. Day Four: Sell $800 of XYZ Corp.	Within five business days, less than $5,000 worth of XYZ Corp. is sold; all transactions in the aggregate is under the de minimis threshold
NOT de minimis	Day One: Buy $4,500 of PQR, Inc. Day Three: Buy $1,000 of PQR, Inc.	Day Three transaction is not considered de minimis, as it brings the total for the five business day window over $5,000
NOT de minimis	Day One: Sell $1,000 of Acme Corp. Day Two: Sell $3,000 of Acme Corp. Day Three: Sell $1,500 of Acme Corp.	Day Three transaction is not considered de minimis, as it brings the total for the five business day window over $5,000

StarCompliance will calculate whether a transaction meets the De Minimis thresholds and will take this into account when determining whether to approve or deny a personal trade.

024. Additional Requirements for Fundamental Equity Investment Persons

Investment Persons on Fundamental Equity Teams are required to obtain the respective Asset Class CIO’s approval before transacting in single name equities and securities that can convert to single name equities for their personal accounts, including but not limited to transactions in stock, preferred stock, warrants, and any security convertible to an equity. This additional preapproval requirement includes the purchase of new positions and purchase of additional shares of existing positions, with the exception of dividend reinvestments and other involuntary corporate actions. With prior approval from the Ethics Office, exceptions from the additional preapproval requirement may be allowed for Fully Managed Accounts. Prior approval can also be requested to transact in securities directly through an employer stock plan or employer stock options, or in circumstances of hardship.

Pre-approvals provided by Asset-Class CIOs will be effected after a trade pre-clearance request has been approved in StarCompliance. Upon receipt of the StarCompliance approval email, the employee shall forward the approval to the appropriate CIO and cc GA_Compliance_CIO_CodeReview. The employee shall provide the Asset Class CIO with any relevant information regarding the trade request. The CIO will review the request and “reply all” when approving or denying the request. Employees may not trade if the request has been denied by Ethics via StarCompliance or by the CIO. Pre-approvals provided by Asset-Class CIOs expire at the same time and date noted on the StarCompliance pre-approval.

Appendix B

Beneficial Ownership of Accounts and Securities

A Beneficially Owned Account is:

• An account where the Covered Person enjoys the benefits of ownership (even if title is held in another name); and/or

• An account where the Covered Person either directly or indirectly, has investment control or the power to vote or influence the transaction decisions of the account.

The Code’s provisions apply to accounts beneficially owned by the Covered Person, as well as accounts under direct or indirect influence or control of the Covered Person.

Generally, an individual is considered to be a beneficial owner of accounts or securities when the individual has or shares direct or indirect pecuniary interest in the accounts or securities. Pecuniary interest means that an individual has the ability to profit, directly or indirectly, or share in any profit from a transaction. Indirect pecuniary interest extends to, but is not limited to:

• Accounts and securities held by immediate family members sharing the same household;

• Securities held in trust (certain restrictions may apply); and

• A right to acquire Covered Securities through the exercise or conversion of any derivative security, whether or not presently exercisable.

Practical Application

If an adult child is living with his or her parents: If the child is living in the parents’ house, but does not financially support the parent, the parents’ accounts and securities are not beneficially owned by the child. If the child works for the Firm and does not financially support the parents, accounts and securities owned by the parents are not subject to the Code, with the exception of UGMA/UTMA, or similar types of accounts, which are legally owned by the child. If one or both parents work for the Firm, and the child is supported by the parent(s), the child’s accounts and securities are subject to the Code because the parent(s) is a beneficial owner of the child’s accounts and securities.

Co-habitation (domestic partnership or PACS): Domestic partnerships or PACS are generally considered to be permanent, committed arrangements. Accounts where the Covered Person is a joint owner, or listed as a beneficiary, are subject to the Code. If the Covered Person contributes to the maintenance of the household and the financial support of the partner, the partner’s accounts and securities are beneficially owned by the Covered Person and are therefore subject to the Code.

Co-habitation (roommate): Generally, roommates are presumed to be temporary and have no beneficial interest in one another’s accounts and securities.

UGMA/UTMA and similar types of accounts: If the Covered Person or the Covered Person’s spouse or other Covered family member is the custodian for a minor child, the account is beneficially owned by the Covered Person. If someone other than the Covered Person, or the Covered Person’s spouse or other Covered family member, is the custodian for the Covered Person’s minor child, the account is not beneficially owned by the Covered Person. If a Covered Person is the minor/beneficiary of the account, the account is a Reportable Account.

Information Classification: General 22

Transfer on Death accounts (“TOD accounts”): TOD accounts where the Covered Person receives the interest of the account upon death of the account owner are not beneficially owned by the Covered Person until the account transfer occurs (this particular account registration is not common).

Trusts

• If the Covered Person is the trustee for an account where the beneficiaries are not immediate family members, the position should be reviewed in light of outside business activity reporting requirements and generally will be subject to a case-by-case review for Code applicability.

• If the Covered Person is a beneficiary and does not share investment control with a trustee, the Covered Person is not a beneficial owner until the Trust assets are distributed.

• If a Covered Person is a beneficiary and can make investment decisions without consultation with a trustee, the trust is beneficially owned by the Covered Person.

• If the Covered Person is a trustee and a beneficiary, the trust is beneficially owned by the Covered Person.

• If the Covered Person is a trustee, and a family member is beneficiary, then the account is beneficially owned by the Covered Person.

• If the Covered Person is a settler of a revocable trust, the trust is beneficially owned by the Covered Person.

• If the Covered Person’s spouse/domestic partner is trustee and beneficiary, a case-by-case review will be performed to determine applicability of the Code.

College age children: If a Covered Person has a child in college and still claims the child as a dependent for tax purposes, the Covered Person is a beneficial owner of the child’s accounts and securities.

Powers of Attorney: If a Covered Person has been granted durable or conditional power of attorney over an account, the Covered Person is not the beneficial owner of the account until such time as the power of attorney is exercised. If a Covered Person has been granted full power of attorney over an account, the account is a Reportable Account. Beneficial ownership runs until revocation/termination of the power of attorney.

Australia

Additional Blackout Period

From time to time the Responsible Entity (“RE”) of the Australian domiciled Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) may determine certain Covered Persons could be in possession of material, non-public information relating to one or more ETFs for which State Street Global Advisors, Australia, Limited is the investment advisor, and request a blackout period covering the securities be implemented, whether due to consideration of Australian Securities Exchange listing rules, the insider trading provisions of the Corporations Act 2001 or similar. Typically this may occur during the two weeks prior to the public announcement of income distributions for an ETF.

Upon receipt of a request from the RE, the Ethics Office, or their designee, will review the request and may initiate a blackout period over the relevant ETFs on such terms as are deemed appropriate. Covered Persons to whom a blackout period applies will be advised of the commencement, duration and other specifics of any such blackout period. Any trading in contravention of the blackout period will be treated as an employee conduct issue.

The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) rules on personal account dealing are contained in the FCA Conduct of Business Sourcebook (“COBS”).

Under COBS, State Street Global Advisors Limited must take reasonable steps to ensure that any investment activities conducted by Covered Persons do not conflict with the firms duties to its customers. In ensuring this is, and continues to be, the case, the Advisors must ensure they have in place processes and procedures which enable them to identify and record any Covered Person transactions and permission to continue with any transaction is only given where the requirements of COBS are met.

The requirements of this Code have a binding value vis-à-vis the Covered Persons of the Italian branch of the Firm and are to be considered in addition to the provisions contained in the disciplinary code in force within the Italian branch of the Firm.

Any potential violation of the provisions of the Code or related policies by Covered Persons in Italy will be investigated by the Ethics Office. Violations of the Code are reported to the EMG. If a determination is made that an employee conduct issue has occurred, a sanction may be imposed in accordance with the State Street Conduct Standards Policy and pursuant to the rules established by Italian Law and by the applicable national collective bargaining agreement.

As discussed in the State Street Conduct Standards Policy, enforcement shall be differentiated and graduated based on the seriousness of the individual breaches, taking into consideration the objective circumstances, the intentionality, the existence of justifications, the recidivism and the possible repetition of the conducts concerned.

Enforcement may also apply to any supervisor who directs or approves such actions, or has knowledge of them and does not promptly correct them. Conduct which violates this Code may also violate laws and therefore subject the offending Covered Person to civil and criminal liabilities as well.

The Firm may also be subject to prosecution and fines for the conduct of its employees. Reimbursement of losses of damages deriving from any breach of this Code will be requested to the employees according to the procedures set forth by the applicable national collective bargaining agreement.

In Italy, prior to inflict to employee any sanction deriving from possible violations of this Code, the specific disciplinary procedure provided for by Law. No. 300/1970 (the so called “Workers’ Statute”) shall be implemented. In particular, the Ethics Office shall notify in writing to the employee concerned the facts relating to the alleged misconduct and shall ask the employee concerned to furnish his/her justifications within 5 days from the receipt of such disciplinary letter.

The disciplinary sanction, if any, shall be adopted following the 5-days’ term granted to the employee to render his/her justifications. The disciplinary sanctions shall be proportional to the employee’s behaviour in breach.

Code of Ethics FAQs

The Ethics Office has additional FAQ and How-To documents related to using Star and completing required reporting (e.g., Initial and Annual Holdings Reports) available on StarCompliance.

I work in the United States. Do I have to report my State Street 401(k)?

No, you are not required to disclose your State Street 401(k) at this time unless you have chosen to participate in the linked brokerage account option, in which case the linked brokerage account, and the holdings in the account, do need to be reported. 401(k) and other self-invested workplace pension accounts are reportable where you or your Covered Persons have investment discretion beyond that of allocating a monthly value to a specific risk profile or sector, or selecting from a limited number of pre-selected funds.

However, if you have activated the Brokerage Link feature for your 401(k), you must report that account and ensure that all transactions and holdings are reflected accurately in Quarterly Transaction Reports and Annual Holdings Reports, respectively.

My spouse (or I) has a company- or government-sponsored retirement plan (such as a 401(k) in the US, or a superannuation plan in Australia). How do I determine what accounts, holdings, and transactions must be disclosed and pre-cleared?

Due to the wide variety of plans available globally, it’s important to check with the Ethics Office if you have any questions about how this applies to you.

Accounts

If the account or plan currently holds Covered Securities (see Appendix C), you must disclose the account.

Retirement plans usually have a “line up” of available investments from which the account owner can choose; if there is a Covered Security in the lineup of available investments, but you do not currently invest in Covered Securities, you are not required to disclose the account. If at any point, your retirement plan invests in Covered Securities, you must disclose the account, the holdings in Covered Securities, and the Transactions in Covered Securities, as described below.

Information Classification: General 32

Holdings

You must disclose any holdings in Covered Securities (see Appendix C).

Transactions

Usually, transactions in a retirement plan you are actively participating in fall under the Automatic Investment Plan definition (see Appendix A) and are treated as such. However, you must pre-clear and disclose any transactions over which you exercised discretion. For example, the following types of transactions must be pre-cleared and disclosed:

• A change in future investment allocations in Covered Securities, such as increasing your automatic payroll investment in Security XYX from 15% to 20%. Note: only the initial change must be pre-cleared and reported.

• Re-allocating your existing holdings in Covered Securities, such as changing your portfolio from 50% Security XYZ and 50% Security ABC to 75% Security XYZ and 25% Security ABC.

If you or your Covered Person are automatically enrolled in a plan with default investment percentages (e.g., 7% of salary) and investment options, any transactions made as a result of your automatic enrollment are not subject to disclosure or pre-clearance.

I have an account with an Approved or Preferred Broker which feeds my transactions to Star. Can you tell me what I have to do with regards to pre-clearance and reporting whenever I make personal trades?

In order to ensure your trades are properly pre-cleared and reported, make sure that you:

(1) Pre-clear the trade by submitting a Trade Request in StarCompliance. Trade Requests:

• Must be for the correct security, account, and trade direction (buy vs. sell).

• Must be for at least the amount of shares that you plan on trading. You may always trade fewer shares than you were approved for, but you may not trade more.

(2) Are valid only for the day they are approved. Wait for the result (Approved or Denied) from Star before trading. You’ll typically receive the result within seconds on screen and will receive an email with the results. Trade Request approvals are valid only for the day they are approved. Make note of the expiration time and date for any approved Trade Request.

(3) Ensure your transactions are accurately reflected in Star.

• You are required to do this on a quarterly basis (known as the Quarterly Transactions Report), but many people find it easier to compare their transactions in Star with their broker’s records (e.g., a statement or trade confirmations) more frequently.

• When you submit your Quarterly Transactions Report, it must accurately reflect all Reportable Transactions for the quarter.

• The Approved Broker feeds are tools to help keep accurate records in Star; you are responsible for the accuracy of the data in your Code of Ethics reports.

Information Classification: General 33

My account is not with an Approved Broker. Can you tell me what I have to do with regards to pre-clearance and reporting whenever I make personal trades?

In order to ensure your trades are properly pre-cleared and reported, make sure that you:

(1) Pre-clear the trade by submitting a Trade Request in StarCompliance. Trade Requests:

• Must be for the correct security, account, and trade direction (buy vs. sell).

• Must be for at least the amount of shares that you plan on trading. You may always trade fewer shares than you were approved for, but you may not trade more.

• Are valid only for the day they are approved.

(2) Wait for the result (Approved or Denied) from Star before trading. You’ll typically receive the result within seconds on screen and will receive an email with the results. Trade Request approvals are valid only for the day they are approved. Make note of any expiration time and date for any approved Trade Request.

(3) Ensure your transactions are accurately reflected in Star.

• You are required to do this on a quarterly basis (known as the Quarterly Transactions Report), but many people find it easier to use the StarCompliance “Execute” function after they trade. The StarCompliance User Guide provides step-by-step instructions.

• When you submit your Quarterly Transactions Report, it must accurately reflect all Reportable Transactions for the quarter.
