<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Transcript of Interview with Kevin Quigg, Global Head of SSgA&#146;s Capital Markets Group, on the
Street.com July&nbsp;27, 2011</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">INTERVIEWER: Kevin Quigg, with all the talk about a US Treasury debt downgrade, how will this
affect fixed income ETFs?
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">KEVIN QUIGG: Well, I think fixed income ETFs have been trade, uh, changing for the past several
months. In the first half of the year, fixed income ETFs are the largest asset gatherer. However,
the areas of fixed income into which assets are flowing have changed. People are looking for more
immediate income. JNK, which is our SPDR high yield bond fund has gathered a tremendous amount of
assets, over $7&nbsp;billion now. You&#146;re seeing people seeking, you know, getting paid to wait, people
wanting to, to get immediate income as opposed to, to the broad based investing.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">INTERVIEWER: What about currency ETFs, a lot of worry about the dollar out there?
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">KEVIN QUIGG: Sure. I think people are also starting to put money into currency ETFs with, with not
immediate concerns, but longer terms for, for the dollar and longer terms for other things. I think
again, depending on the user, whether you&#146;re hedging your, your currency, or whether you&#146;re looking
to make a play in currency, that&#146;s another way to play the market.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">INTERVIEWER: And what about commodity ETFs? A lot of people of course are getting into gold ETFs
and silver ETFs.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">KEVIN QUIGG: Sure.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">INTERVIEWER: Anything else out there?
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">KEVIN QUIGG: Yeah, I think the SPDR Gold Trust, which you mentioned, is the second largest exchange
traded fund in the world with about $67&nbsp;billion. I think people are rethinking their commodity
exposure as well. So from a return standpoint, the broad based commodities basket didn&#146;t have a
strong first half of the year. However, gold had a wonderful first half, silver had a wonderful
first class and people are starting to distinguish separate allocations for each of those buckets.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">INTERVIEWER: Thanks a lot Kevin.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">KEVIN QUIGG: You&#146;re quite welcome.
