These changes are being implemented toward the end of maintaining the cap-range appropriateness of the indices' constituents, as well as the indices' representativeness of the market's sector balance in those cap ranges.

The modest impact of M&A activity on the US indices thus far this year affords us the opportunity to make these adjustments with relatively minimal turnover. Standard & Poor's will monitor these transactions, and post any relevant updates on its website: http://www.standardandpoors.com/.
