SPDR Barclays Capital Mortgage Backed Bond is an open-end investment management company.

The Fund does not intend to purchase all of the securities in the Index, but rather will utilize a sampling methodology in seeking the Fund's objective. As of June 30 2015, the Fund's total assets and investment porfolio totaled $187,771,759 and $185,029,507, respectively.

Understanding the changing numbers of MBG shares outstanding — and
comprehending the concept of differing number of shares outstanding in general comparing companies like MBG versus peers —
is critical for investors. Many "beginner" or "novice" investors will look at one stock trading at a price of $10 per share and another trading at
a price of $20 per share and think the latter company is worth twice as much. Of course, that is a completely meaningless comparison without also knowing how many shares outstanding there are for each of the two companies.
Furthermore, via issuance of new shares over time, or the repurchase of existing shares, the number of shares outstanding can fluctuate over the course of history.
