4 Introduction Highlights and Index Family The Dow Jones Composite All REIT Index contains all publicly traded U.S. REITs in the S&P Dow Jones Indices U.S. stock universe that are classified into one of three subcategories equity, mortgage or hybrid as defined by the REIT/RESI Industry Classification Hierarchy. Also available is the Dow Jones Equity All REIT Index, a subset of the Dow Jones Composite All REIT Index that includes only those companies that have elected to be taxed as REITs and are classified as Equity REITs according to the REIT/RESI Industry Classification Hierarchy. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 3
5 Eligibility Criteria Index Eligibility and Constituent Selection Dow Jones Composite All REIT Index. All publicly traded companies in the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index that have elected to be taxed as REITs are included in the index. Each REIT constituent is classified based on its business description reported in its SEC filings, into one of three categories: equity, mortgage or hybrid. Dow Jones Equity All REIT Index. All publicly traded companies in the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index that have elected to be taxed as REITs and are classified as Equity REITs according to the Dow Jones REIT Industry Classification Hierarchy are included in the index. REIT/RESI Industry Classification Hierarchy The S&P Dow Jones Indices REIT/RESI Industry Classification Hierarchy is designed specifically to meet the needs of REIT analysts and investors. Its structure is independent from that of the proprietary classification system used by S&P Dow Jones Indices. Each REIT in the S&P Dow Jones Indices equity security universe is classified, based on its description of its business as reported in its SEC filings, into one of three categories: equity, mortgage or hybrid. Please refer to the S&P Dow Jones Indices REIT/RESI Industry Classification Hierarchy for the definitions used in the hierarchy. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 4
6 Index Construction Approaches Each index is weighted by float-adjusted market capitalization. For float adjustment methodology, please see the S&P Dow Jones Indices Float Adjustment Methodology document located under the Resource Center on our Web site, Index Calculations The index is calculated by means of the divisor methodology used in all S&P Dow Jones Indices equity indices. On any given day, the index value is the quotient of the total float-adjusted market capitalization of the index s constituents and its divisor. Continuity in index values is maintained by adjusting the divisor for all changes in the constituents share capital after the base date. This includes additions and deletions to the index, rights issues, share buybacks and issuances, and spin-offs. The divisor s time series is, in effect, a chronological summary of all changes affecting the base capital of the index. The divisor is adjusted such that the index value at an instant just prior to a change in base capital equals the index value at an instant immediately following that change. For more information on the Index calculation methodology, please refer to the Capitalization Weighted Indices section of S&P Dow Jones Indices Index Mathematics Methodology. Multiple Classes of Stock Some companies have more than one class of common stock outstanding. In the Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices, each company is represented only once. The stock price is based on one class, usually the most liquid class, and the share count is based on the total shares outstanding. To determine the available float for companies with multiple classes of stock, S&P Dow Jones Indices calculates the weighted average investable weight factor (IWF) for the stock using the proportion of total company market capitalization of each share class as the weights. The result is reviewed to assure that when the weighted average IWF is applied to the class included in the index, the shares to be purchased are not significantly larger than the available float for the included class. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 5
7 Index Maintenance Rebalancing Rebalancings are conducted monthly after the close of trading on the third Friday of each month and become effective at the open of trading on the subsequent Monday. As part of the rebalancing process, REITs are added to the index. The additions include all nonconstituent REITs that meet inclusion standards as of the close of trading on the second Friday of that month, whether from IPOs, conversion to REIT status or new exchange listings. Investable Weight Factors (IWFs) and shares outstanding are updated concurrent with changes to the parent Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index. Additions. Generally no companies are added to an index between monthly rebalancings except for spin-offs. Any exceptions to this rule are announced to clients with ample lead time. Deletions. Between monthly rebalancings, a company can be deleted from the Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices due to corporate events such as mergers, acquisitions, delistings or bankruptcies. Deleted constituents are not replaced between monthly rebalancings. A REIT that elects to drop its REIT status and becomes taxed as a C corporation will be removed from the REIT Index immediately upon completion of the change of tax status. If a constituent company enters bankruptcy proceedings, it will be removed from the index and will remain ineligible for re-inclusion until it has emerged from bankruptcy. However, the Index Committee may, following a review of the bankrupt company and the issues involved in the filing, decide to keep the company in the index. The Index Committee may, at its discretion and if it has determined a company to be in extreme financial distress, remove the company from any index to which that company belongs if the committee deems the removal necessary to protect the integrity of the index and the interests of investors in products linked to that index. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 6
8 Corporate Actions Corporate actions (such as stock splits, stock dividends, spin-offs and rights offerings) are applied after the close of trading on the day prior to the ex-date. Share changes resulting from exchange offers are applied on the ex-date. Spin-offs. In general, both the parent company and spin-off companies remain in the index until the next index rebalancing, provided that each gives an indication it will continue to be a publicly traded real estate company. When there is no market-determined price available for the spin, the spin is added to the index at zero price at the close of the day before the ex-date. For more information, please refer to S&P Dow Jones Indices Corporate Actions Policies & Practices document located under the Resource Center on our Web site, Currency of Calculation The Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices are calculated in U.S. dollars. Base Dates and History Availability Index history availability, base dates and base values are shown in the table below. Index Dow Jones Composite All REIT Index Dow Jones Equity All REIT Index Launch Date First Value Date Base Date Base Value 01/15/ /31/ /31/ /15/ /31/ /31/ Investable Weight Factor (IWF) All issues in the Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices are assigned a float factor, called an Investable Weight Factor (IWF). The IWF ranges between 0 and 1 and is an adjustment factor that accounts for the publicly available shares of a company. The company s adjusted market capitalization determines an equity issue s relative weight in the index. Please refer to the S&P Dow Jones Indices Float Methodology document for details. Shares. For more information on shares outstanding changes, please refer to S&P Dow Jones Indices Corporate Actions Policies & Procedures document located under the Resource Center on our Web site, Other Adjustments In cases where there is no achievable market price for a stock being deleted, it may be removed at a zero or minimal price at the Index Committee s discretion, in recognition of the constraints faced by investors in trading bankrupt or suspended stocks. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 7
9 Index Data Total Return Indices Total return index series are calculated for the Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices as well as the price return series. Ordinary cash dividends are applied on the ex-date in calculating the total return series. Special dividends are those dividends that are outside of the normal payment pattern established historically by the issuing corporation. These may be described by the corporation as special, extra, year-end, or return of capital. Whether a dividend is funded from operating earnings or from other sources of cash does not affect the determination of whether it is ordinary or special. Special dividends are treated as corporate actions with offsetting price and divisor adjustments; the total return index series reflect both ordinary and special dividends. Total return indices reflect the return to an investor where gross dividends are reinvested. Please refer to S&P Dow Jones Indices Index Mathematics Methodology for more detail on total and net return index calculations. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 8
10 Index Governance Index Committee The Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices are maintained by the Global Thematic and Strategy Indices Index Committee. All committee members are full-time professional members of S&P Dow Jones Indices staff. The committee meets at least monthly. At each meeting, the Index Committee reviews pending corporate actions that may affect index constituents, statistics comparing the composition of the indices to the market, companies that are being considered as candidates for addition to an index, and any significant market events. In addition, the Index Committee may revise index policy covering rules for selecting companies, treatment of dividends, share counts or other matters. S&P Dow Jones Indices considers information about changes to its indices and related matters to be potentially market moving and material. Therefore, all Index Committee discussions are confidential. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 9
11 Index Policy Announcements All index constituents are evaluated daily for data needed to calculate index levels and returns. All events affecting the daily index calculation are typically announced 30 days in advance via the Index Corporate Events report (SDE), delivered daily via ftp to all clients. Any unusual treatment of a corporate action or short notice of an event may be communicated via to clients. Press releases are posted on our Web site, and are released to major news services. Index methodology is constantly under review for best practices, and any changes are announced well ahead of time via the Web site and to all clients. Pro-forma Files In addition to the corporate events file (.SDE), S&P Dow Jones Indices provides constituent proforma files each time the indices rebalance. The proforma file is typically provided daily five business days in advance of the rebalancing date and contains all constituents and their corresponding weights and index shares effective for the upcoming rebalancing. Since index shares are assigned based on prices one week prior to the rebalancing, the actual weight of each stock at the rebalancing differs from these weights due to market movements. Please visit the S&P Dow Jones Indices Resource Center for a complete schedule of rebalancing timelines and proforma delivery times at Holiday Schedule The Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices are calculated when the U.S. equity markets are open. A complete holiday schedule for the year is available on the S&P Dow Jones Indices Web site at S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 10
12 Unscheduled Market Closures In situations where an exchange is forced to close early due to unforeseen events, such as computer or electric power failures, weather conditions or other events, S&P Dow Jones Indices calculates the closing price of the indices based on (1) the closing prices published by the exchange, or (2) if no closing price is available, the last regular trade reported for each stock before the exchange closed. In all cases, the prices are from the primary exchange for each stock in the index. If an exchange fails to open due to unforeseen circumstances, the index uses the prior day s closing prices. If all exchanges fail to open, S&P Dow Jones Indices may determine not to publish the index for that day. Recalculation Policy S&P Dow Jones Indices attempts to avoid incorrect data that affects the index on a bestefforts basis. Incorrect share calculations, corporate actions, and exchange rates are corrected immediately. However, index values are not corrected retroactively. For more information on the recalculation policy please refer to S&P Dow Jones Indices Corporate Actions Policies & Practices Index Methodology document located under Resource Center on our Web site, Real-Time Calculation Real-Time, intra-day, index calculations are executed every 15 seconds during U.S. trading hours. Real-time indices are not restated. S&P Dow Jones Indices: Dow Jones Composite All REIT Indices Methodology 11
