Incorporation: The iShares Fund is an exchange-traded fund established as a trust under the laws of the Province of Ontario pursuant to a master declaration of trust amended and restated as of April 10, 2014, governing the iShares Fund, as may be amended and/or restated from time to time.

Nature of Business: The iShares Fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the MSCI Europe IMI (the "Index"), net of expenses. The investment strategy of the iShares Fund is to invest in securities of one or more iShares ETFs and/or in Index Securities of the Index, such that the resulting portfolio will have characteristics that closely match the characteristics of the Index.
Transfer Agent & Registrar: State Street Trust Company Canada at its principal office in Toronto.
Distributions and Automatic Reinvestment: Cash distributions on Units of the iShares Fund are expected to be made semi-annually.

On an annual basis, the iShares Fund will ensure that the net income and net realized capital gains of the iShares Fund have been distributed to unitholders to such an extent that the iShares Fund will not be liable for ordinary income tax thereon. To the extent that the iShares Fund has not distributed the full amount of its net income or net capital gains in cash in any year, the difference between such amount and the amount actually distributed by the iShares Fund in cash will be paid as a "reinvested distribution". Reinvested distributions will be reinvested automatically in additional Units of the iShares Fund at a price equal to the Net Asset Value per Unit of the iShares Fund and the Units of the iShares Fund will be immediately consolidated such that the number of outstanding Units of the iShares Fund following the distribution will equal the number of Units of the iShares Fund outstanding prior to the distribution.
Initial Issuance of Units: Pursuant to the terms of the Prospectus, Units will be issued and sold on a continuous basis and there will be no maximum number of Units that may be issued. Units sold in connection with the initial public offering for the iShares Fund will amount to 400,000 Units at a price of $20.00 per Unit.
