DECLARATION OF

TRUST ESTABLISHING

THE

TD AMERITRADE TRUST COMPANY

COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT FUNDS

FOR EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Effective August 18, 2008, TD AMERITRADE TRUST COMPANY, a Maine

nondepository trust company (the “TDATC”), assumed the declaration of trust originally

established on November 28, 2000, as the First Trust Corporation Collective Investment Funds

for Employee Benefit Plans (the “Declaration of Trust”). This Declaration of Trust has been

amended and restated from time-to-time, most recently on October 22, 2013. TDATC hereby

amends and restates the Declaration of Trust as the TD AMERITRADE Trust Company

Collective Investment Funds for Employee Benefit Plans, in order to continue to provide for the

collective investment and reinvestment of assets of certain tax-exempt employee benefit plans

that become participants hereunder with the objectives and in the manner described in this

Declaration of Trust.

From time to time, in accordance with the provisions of Article 2 of this Declaration of

Trust, the Trustee (as defined in Section 1.14, below) may establish such separate and distinct

collective investment funds (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) as it may deem

necessary and desirable, each with such separate classes or divisions (each, a “Class”) of

interests as it may deem necessary and desirable in accordance with the terms of this

Declaration of Trust. The Trustee hereby declares that it shall act as trustee and shall hold and

administer, in trust, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Declaration of Trust, all

property that may be transferred to or received by it from time to time as trustee hereunder.

Each of the Funds established hereunder is intended to qualify as a group trust under

Revenue Ruling 81-100, 1981-1 C.B. 326, issued by the Internal Revenue Service, as clarified

and modified by Revenue Ruling 2004-67, 2004-2 C.B. 28, Revenue Ruling 2011-01, 2011-2

I.R.B. 251 and Section 401(a)(24) of the Code, and be exempt from the registration

requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and the Investment Company

Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and other applicable federal and state securities laws.

Accordingly, this Declaration of Trust shall be construed, and each Fund established hereunder

shall be administered, to the extent possible, to give effect to the foregoing.

Each Fund is operated or maintained exclusively for the commingling and collective

investment of funds from other trusts that it holds. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in

this declaration of Trust, the Trustee is permitted, unless restricted by the named fiduciary in

writing, to hold in a Fund funds that consist exclusively of trust assets held under plans

qualified under Internal revenue Code (“Code”) Section 401(a) that are exempt under Code

Section 501(a); funds from Code Section 401(a)(24) governmental retiree benefit plans that are

not subject to Federal income taxation; funds from retirement income accounts under Code

Section 403(B)(9); and funds from eligible retirement plan trusts or custodial accounts under

Code Section 457(b) that are exempt under Code Section 457(g).

ARTICLE 2. ESTABLISHMENT OF FUNDS AND CLASSES OF UNITS

2.1 Establishment of Funds. The Trustee shall have the authority to establish from time to time in

accordance with this Declaration of Trust such Fund or Funds as it may deem necessary and

advisable to provide for the collective investment and reinvestment of assets of Participating

Trusts. Each Fund shall constitute a separate trust and the Trustee shall separately hold, manage,

administer, value, invest, reinvest, account for and otherwise deal with each such Fund. Each

Fund established pursuant to this Declaration of Trust, together with a description of the

Investment Characteristics thereof, shall be identified in Appendix A hereto, which may be

amended from time to time by the Trustee in its sole discretion.

2.2 Establishment of Classes. The Trustee, in its sole discretion, may divide a Fund

into one or more Classes of Units representing beneficial interests in such Fund with differing

fee and expense obligations. The Trustee shall establish such Classes by attaching a written

description of classes as Appendix B to this Declaration of Trust (the “Description of Classes”),

which shall specify the rate of Trustee compensation and other expenses, costs, charges and

other liabilities specially allocable to each Class of Units, as well as any conditions to

participation in such Class. With respect to a Class of Units of a Fund, each Unit shall be of

equal value to every other Unit of the same Class. Each Unit of a Class of a Fund shall

represent an undivided proportionate interest in all the assets of the Fund. The fact that a Fund

shall have been established and designated without any specific establishment or designation of

Classes, or that a Fund shall have more than one established and designated Class, shall not

limit the authority of the Trustee, in its sole discretion and at any time, to subsequently establish

and designate separate Classes, or one or more additional Classes, of said Fund. As of any

Page 9: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

5

Valuation Date, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may make a uniform change in the Units of

any Class of any Fund either by dividing such Units into a greater number of Units of lesser

value, or combining such Units to produce a lesser number of Units of greater value, provided

that the proportionate interest of each Participating Trust in the Fund shall not thereby be

changed.

2.3 No Certificates. No transferable certificate shall be issued to evidence the interest

of any Participating Trust in any Fund or any Liquidating Account established pursuant to

Article 4, but the Trustee shall keep a record of the number of Units standing to the credit of each

Participating Trust. A non-transferable certificate of participation may be issued to each

Participating Trust having an interest in a Liquidating Account describing the assets held in the

Liquidating Account and the Participating Trust’s proportionate interest therein.

ARTICLE 3. PARTICIPATION

3.1 Conditions of Participation. The Trustee shall accept deposits in a Fund only from Qualified

Trusts. Any such Qualified Trust shall establish to the Trustee’s satisfaction that it meets the

requirements of Section 1.10 and shall provide, at the request of the Trustee, written

representations and other information (including, but not limited to, a written certificate or

opinion of counsel regarding its status or a copy of a favorable determination letter from the

Internal Revenue Service) or other assurances the Trustee may deem necessary or advisable. A

Qualified Trust that has been accepted as a Participating Trust in a Fund shall continue to be

eligible to participate in the Fund, subject to the following conditions:

(a) During such time as any assets of a Participating Trust are held in the

Fund, (i) this Declaration of Trust shall govern the administration of such assets and (ii)

any inconsistency between the governing instrument of the Participating Trust and this

Declaration of Trust relating to the management or administration of the Participating

Trust’s assets held hereunder or to the rights, powers, responsibilities or liabilities of the

Trustee with respect thereto shall be resolved in favor of this Declaration of Trust.

(b) If at any time a Participating Trust shall fail to satisfy all of the

requirements of Section 1.10, such Participating Trust shall promptly notify the Trustee.

If the Trustee receives actual notice that a Participating Trust no longer satisfies the

conditions of Section 1.10, or if the Trustee determines in its sole discretion that a

Participating Trust should withdraw for any reason, the Trustee shall take all steps

necessary to distribute to such Participating Trust its entire interest in the Fund or Funds

established pursuant to this declaration of Trust, other than an interest the Participating

trust may have in a Liquidating Account, as soon as practicable after the Trustee receives

such notice

3.2 Other Conditions of Participation. The Trustee may establish conditions for eligibility to

participate in any particular Class of a Fund by setting forth such conditions in the

Description of Classes.

3.3 Deposits.

(a) With the consent of the Trustee and upon such prior notice as the Trustee

may specify from time to time, a Qualified Trust may, as of any Valuation Date, acquire

Page 10: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

6

a beneficial interest in any Class of Units of a Fund by depositing with the Trustee such

assets as (i) the Plan Fiduciary of such Qualified Trust shall instruct or (ii) if such

Qualified Trust permits participants and beneficiaries thereof to direct investment of their

accounts, and such instructions are communicated to the Trustee directly by such

participants and beneficiaries, as such participants and beneficiaries shall instruct. The

Trustee shall be fully protected in following the instructions of the Plan Fiduciary (or of

the participants and beneficiaries, if applicable) as to the amounts and proportions of the

assets of any deposit to be placed in the Funds. Only money and such other assets as are

permissible investments for the Fund, and acceptable to the Trustee, in its sole discretion,

may be deposited in such Fund. Assets other than money deposited in a Fund shall be

valued at their fair value (as determined under Section 5.2) as of the Valuation Date on

which such deposit is made, subject to Section 3.6.

(b) The Trustee shall credit to the account of each Participating Trust that

makes a deposit in a Fund that number of Units that the deposit will purchase at the

value of each Unit of the Class in which the Participating Trust will acquire an interest

on the Valuation Date as of which the deposit is made.

3.4 Withdrawals. Subject to Section 5.3, the Plan Fiduciary of a Participating

Trust (or a participant or beneficiary of such Participating Trust, if applicable) may, as of any

Valuation Date, withdraw any number of Units from a Class of a Fund in which it has made a

deposit and has a beneficial interest, provided that such right of withdrawal may be further

limited by the Investment Characteristics or the Description of Classes applicable to such Fund

or Class. Notice of withdrawal must be received by the Trustee within such prior notice period

as the Trustee may establish, but the Trustee may waive this requirement in its sole discretion

in any case.

3.5 Distributions Upon Withdrawal. Upon the withdrawal of Units of any Class of

any Fund, subject to the provisions of Section 3.6, the Trustee shall distribute from such Fund

to the Participating Trust making such withdrawal a sum arrived at by multiplying the number

of Units withdrawn by the value of each Unit of such Class of such Fund as of the close of

business on the Valuation Date on which such withdrawal is effected. Such sum shall be

distributed in cash or in kind or partly in cash and partly in kind (including, but not limited to,

as an in-kind distribution, beneficial interests in a Liquidating Account), as the Trustee in its

sole discretion shall determine. In its sole discretion, the Trustee may determine that

distributions to different Participating Trusts effected as of the same Valuation date may be

composed of different proportions of cash and non-cash assets. The value of any asset other

than cash that is distributed from a Fund shall be deemed to be the value thereof as determined

pursuant to the valuation rules of Section 5.2 as of the close of business on the valuation date as

of which the withdrawal is effected. Such distribution shall be paid within a reasonable time

following the applicable Valuation date, except that such distribution may be delayed of the

Trustee determines that it cannot reasonably make such distribution payment on account of an

order, directive or other interference by an official or agency of any government or any other

cause reasonably beyond its control, including, but not limited to, illiquid markets or illiquid

securities. The Participating Trust receiving such distribution shall not be entitled to any

interest or other income earned on such monies pending payment of distribution.

3.6 Investment and Withdrawal Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of

Page 11: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

7

this Declaration of Trust to the contrary, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine with

respect to any Fund that the actual expenses incurred or estimated expenses expected to be

incurred in connection with cash deposits to such Fund or withdrawals of Units of such Fund

that are to be paid in cash (including, but not limited to, brokerage fees, settlement, stamp taxes,

duty, stock listing and related expenses determined by the Trustee to be allocable to such

deposit or withdrawals as the case may be) shall be borne by the Participating Trust making

such deposits or withdrawals. Such expenses shall be charged to such Participating Trust by

reducing:

(a) the number of Units issued or to be issued to any such Participating

Trust by a number of Units or fractions thereof equal in value to such costs, in the case

of a cash deposit to a Fund, or

(b) the amount of cash to be distributed to any such Participating Trust by

the amount of such costs, in the case of a withdrawal. The actual and estimated

expenses expected to be incurred in connection with any deposit or withdrawal shall be

determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion and, for convenience of administration,

may be determined using a standard formula or other reasonable methodology.

3.7 Unit Accounting. A Participating Trust making an addition to or a

withdrawal from a Class of a Fund shall be considered for accounting purposes to have

purchased or sold, respectively, that number of whole or fractional Units of such Class of

such Fund having an aggregate value equal to the value of the addition or withdrawal. The

price at which Units are purchased or sold for purposes of this Section shall be the Unit value

with respect to the applicable Class determined by the Trustee in accordance with Article 5.

ARTICLE 4. INVESTMENTS AND ADMINISTRATION

4.1 Investment Characteristics. Subject to the provisions of this Section, the

Trustee shall invest and reinvest the assets of each Fund established pursuant to this Declaration

of Trust in accordance with such investment objectives, guidelines and restrictions, and each

Fund shall be operated and maintained in accordance with such terms and conditions

(collectively, the “Investment Characteristics”), as the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may

specify upon the establishment of such Fund and from to time thereafter. The decision of the

Trustee as to whether an investment is of a type that may be purchased by a Fund under the

Investment Characteristics for such Fund or this Declaration of Trust shall be conclusive and

binding on all persons having an interest in the Fund. In the case of any conflict between the

specific terms of the Investment Characteristics and this Declaration of Trust, the Investment

Characteristics shall Control except that no term of the Investment Characteristics may vary

any term or condition of this Declaration of Trust in a manner that would cause the Fund to fail

to qualify as a group trust under revenue Ruling 81-100.

4.2 Short-Term Investments. Notwithstanding the Investment Characteristics of a

Fund, the Trustee may from time to time, in its sole discretion, invest such portion of the assets

of such Fund as it may deem advisable in short-term money market instruments or vehicles,

including, but not limited to, U.S. Government obligations, bankers’ acceptances, commercial

paper, certificates of deposit and other deposit accounts insured by the Federal Deposit

Insurance Corporation (including, but not limited to, but subject to applicable law, any such

Page 12: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

8

deposits in the Trustee or any of its Affiliates), repurchase agreements, money market mutual

funds (including, but not limited to, but subject to applicable law, those sponsored or advised

by the Trustee or any of its Affiliates), and any short-term investment fund (including, but not

limited to, but subject to applicable law, any such fund maintained by the Trustee or any of its

Affiliates including, but not limited to, a Fund established pursuant to this Declaration of Trust)

as to which the Fund is an eligible participant.

4.3 Cash Balances. The Trustee is authorized to hold such part of a Fund

uninvested as may be reasonably necessary for orderly administration of the Fund, and to

deposit cash awaiting investment or distribution in accounts maintained in the commercial or

savings department of any bank or savings association, the deposits of which are insured by the

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, including, but not limited to, but subject to the

applicable law, accounts maintained in the commercial or savings department of the Trustee or

any of its Affiliates.

4.4 Temporary Net Cash Overdrafts. Except for temporary net cash overdrafts, or

as otherwise permitted by law, the Trustee shall not lend money to a Fund or sell property to or

buy property from the Fund.

4.5 Ownership of Assets. No Participating Trust shall be deemed to have an

individual ownership of any asset of any Fund, but each Participating Trust shall have an

undivided interest in such Fund and shall share proportionately with all other Participating

Trusts in the net income, profits, and losses thereof. The Trustee shall have legal title to the

assets of the Fund and no Participating Trust shall be deemed to have individual ownership of

any asset.

4.6 Dealings with the Funds. All persons extending credit to, contracting with, or

having any claim of any type against any Fund (including, but not limited to, contract, tort and

statutory claims) shall look only to the assets of such Fund (and not to the assets of any other

Fund) for payment under such credit, contract or claim. No Participating Trust, nor any

participant, beneficiary, trustee, employee or agent thereof, nor the Trustee (or any Affiliate),

nor any of the officers, directors, shareholders, partners, employees or agents of the Trustee (or

any Affiliate) shall be personally liable for any obligation of any Fund. Every note, bond,

ARTICLE 5. VALUATION, ACCOUNTING, RECORDS, AND REPORTS

5.1 Valuation of Units. As of each Valuation Date, the Trustee shall determine the value of each of

the Units of each Fund established pursuant to this Declaration of Trust in accordance with the

following procedures:

(a) The Trustee shall determine the value of the assets of a Fund in

accordance with the rules set forth in Section 5.2. The Trustee shall reflect any

changes in security positions no later than in the first calculation on the first

business day following the trade date.

(b) The Trustee shall subtract from the value determined under Section

5.1(a) any expenses, charges, or other liabilities incurred or accrued by the Fund and

not allocated to a particular Class of the Fund in the Description of Classes, as

determined by the Trustee in good faith in accordance with procedures consistently

followed and uniformly applied.

(c) The Trustee shall allocate the net value determined under Sections

5.1(a) and 5.1(b) among the Classes established with respect to such Fund

(proportionate to the aggregate net asset value of the Fund represented by each Class

immediately prior to the allocation under this Section 5.1) and shall thereafter subtract

from such value any expenses, charges or other liabilities incurred or accrued by the

Fund only with respect to such Class in accordance with the Description of Classes.

(d) The Trustee shall divide the net value determined under Section 5.1(c)

by the total number of Units of such Class in existence as of the relevant Valuation

Date.

5.2 Valuation of Assets. The assets of a Fund shall be valued using the following

valuation rules. The Trustee shall have the power and duty to determine the value of the assets of

each Fund.

(a) For purposes of valuation, the value of the interest maintained by a Fund

with respect to any Participating Trust or account in such Fund shall be the fair market

value of the portion of the Fund held for that plan or account, determined in accordance

Page 17: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

13

with generally recognized valuation principles and applicable provisions of this

Declaration of Trust.

(b) Unless otherwise determined by the Trustee, in determining the fair

market value of the assets of a Fund on a Valuation Date, the Trustee shall, except as

provided in paragraph (b) below, value all securities and other assets of the Fund at prices

that in the opinion of the Trustee represent the fair value of such securities or assets. At

the sole discretion of the Trustee, certain or all of the securities and other investments

shall be stated at fair value based on valuations furnished by one or more pricing services

or agents approved by the Trustee.

(c) Short-term investments having a maturity of up to one hundred eighty

(180) days may, in the sole discretion of the Trustee, be valued at cost with

accrued interest, discount earned or premium amortized included or reflected, as the case

may be, in interest receivable.

(d) Following the valuations of securities or other portfolio assets in terms of

the currency in which the valuation is expressed (“Local Currency”) the Trustee shall

calculate these assets in terms of U.S. dollars on the basis of conversion of the Local

Currencies into U.S. dollars at the prevailing currency exchange rates as determined by the

Trustee on the applicable date.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, investments in

collective investment funds shall be valued based on the reported values provided to the

Trustee by the trustee or manager of such collective investment fund.

(f) The Trustee and any pricing agents or services selected by the Trustee

may in its or their sole discretion consider and rely upon any regularly published reports

of sales, bid, asked and closing prices, and over-the-counter quotations for the values of

any listed or unlisted securities, assets, or currencies. The reasonable and equitable

decision of the Trustee regarding whether a method of valuation fairly indicates fair

value, and the selection of a pricing agent or service, shall be conclusive and binding

upon all persons.

(g) In its sole discretion, the Trustee may appoint a valuation committee

and/or a valuation agent (either of which may be an Affiliate of the Trustee) to perform

any or all of the functions, and to exercise any or all of the powers, of the Trustee under

this Section 5.2, under the same terms and conditions as apply with regard to the Trustee

hereunder (including, but not limited to, the authority to select and rely upon one or more

pricing agents or services). Any determination by such a valuation committee or

valuation agent shall have the same effect as a determination by the Trustee itself.

5.3 Suspension of Valuations and Deposit and Withdrawal Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the

contrary elsewhere in this Declaration of Trust or the Investment Characteristics with respect to

any Fund, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may suspend the valuation of the assets or Units of

any Fund pursuant to this Article 5 and/or the right to make deposits to and withdrawals from

such Fund in accordance with Article 3, for the whole or any part of any period when:

Page 18: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

14

(a) any market or stock exchange on which a significant portion of the

investments of such Fund are quoted is closed (other than for ordinary holidays) or

dealings therein are restricted or suspended, or a closing of any such market or stock

exchange or a suspension or restriction of dealings is threatened;

(b) there exists any state of affairs that, in the opinion of the Trustee, constitutes

an emergency as a result of which disposition of the assets of such Fund would not be

reasonably practicable or would be seriously prejudicial to the Participating Trusts;

(c) there has been a breakdown in the means of communication normally

employed in determining the price or value of any of the investments of such Fund, or of

current prices on any stock exchange on which a significant portion of the investments of

such Fund are quoted, or when for any reason the prices or values of any investments

owned by such Fund cannot reasonably and promptly be accurately ascertained;

(d) the transfer of funds involved in the realization or acquisition of any

investment cannot, in the opinion of Trustee, be effected at normal rates of exchange;

(e) the normal settlement procedures for the purchase or sale of securities or other

assets cannot be effected in the customary manner in accordance with generally

applicable time periods; or (f) valuations and/or deposit and withdrawal rights in any

collective investment fund in which the Fund has a significant investment have been

suspended.

5.4 Accounting Rules and Fiscal Year. The Trustee shall account for the financial

operations of the Fund on an accrual basis and for any Liquidating Account on a cash basis, in

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The fiscal year of the Fund initially

shall be the calendar year.

5.5 Expenses and Taxes.

(a) The Trustee may charge to a Fund (i) the cost of money borrowed, (ii)

expenses associated with the holding, purchase and/or sale, and receipt of income from,

investments, (iii) the reasonable expenses of an audit of the Fund, (iv) reasonable

attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses, (v) the Trustee’s compensation as provided in

Section 6.3, and (vi) any other expense, claim, or charge properly payable from a Fund

under this Declaration of Trust or applicable law, including, but not limited to, fees,

expenses, charges and other liabilities due to an Affiliate of the Trustee. The Trustee may

also charge to a particular Class of a Fund any other expense, claim or charge to be

specifically allocated to such Class under the Description of Classes. The Trustee shall

allocate among the Funds (and Classes of Units therein) established pursuant to this

Declaration of Trust the charges and expenses described in this Section 5.5 in such

manner as it shall deem equitable, and such allocation shall be conclusive and binding.

(b) At least once during each period of twelve (12) months, the Trustee shall

report to the Participating Trust the dollar amount (or reasonable estimate thereof) of any

direct expenses incurred by the Trustee for managing the Fund that were allocated to the

Participating Trust’s account.

Page 19: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

15

5.6 Records, Accounts and Audits. The Trustee shall keep such records as it deems

necessary or advisable in its sole discretion to account properly for the operation and

administration of the Fund. A separate account will be maintained to reflect Units held by each

Participating Trust, including separate accounting for contributions to a Fund by each such

Participating Trust and disbursements made from such Participating Trust’s account. Pursuant to

and in accordance with Article 5, Units reflect the investment experience of the Fund as allocable

to the account of each Participating Trust. At least once during each period of twelve (12)

months, the Trustee shall cause a suitable audit to be made of the Fund by auditors responsible

only to the board of directors of the Trustee who by proper resolution shall formally appoint them

for such audit. The reasonable compensation and expenses of the auditors for their services with

respect to a Fund may be charged to the Fund or otherwise paid as directed by the Trustee.

5.7 Financial Reports. Within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the close of

each fiscal year of the Fund and after the termination of the Fund, the Trustee shall prepare a

written financial report, based on the audit referred to in Section 5.6, containing such information

as may be required by applicable law and regulations.

(a) A copy of the report shall be furnished, or notice given that a copy

thereof is available and will be furnished without charge on request, to the Plan Fiduciary

of each Participating Trust and to any other person to whom a regular periodic accounting

would ordinarily be rendered with respect to each Participating Trust. In addition, a copy

of the report shall be furnished on request to any person and the Trustee may make a

reasonable charge therefor.

(b) If no written objections to specific items in the financial report are

received by the Trustee within sixty (60) days after the report is sent by the Trustee, the

report shall be deemed to have been approved with the same effect as though judicially

approved by a court of competent jurisdiction in a proceeding in which all persons

interested were made parties and were properly represented before such court, and, to the

fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustee shall be released and discharged

from liability and accountability with respect to the propriety of its acts and transactions

disclosed in the report. Any such written objection shall apply only to the proportionate

share of the Participating Trust on whose behalf the objection is filed and shall not affect

the proportionate share of any other Participating Trust. The Trustee shall, in any event,

have the right to a settlement of its accounts in a judicial proceeding if it so elects.

(c) Except as otherwise required by this Declaration of Trust or applicable

law, the Trustee shall have no obligation to render an accounting to any Participating

Trust or beneficiary thereof.

5.8 Judicial Accounting. Except to the extent otherwise provided by applicable law,

only the Trustee and a Plan Fiduciary of an affected Participating Trust may require the judicial

settlement of the Trustee’s account with respect to a Fund. In any such proceeding it shall be

necessary to join as parties only the Trustee and the Plan Fiduciaries of the affected Participating

Trusts. Any judgment or decree that may be entered therein shall be conclusive.

postage prepaid, registered, or certified to the address of the appropriate recipient as shown on

the Trustee’s records.

ARTICLE 8. LIQUIDATING ACCOUNTS

8.1 Establishment.

(a) The Trustee may in its sole discretion, from time to time, transfer any

illiquid, impaired, or defaulted investment of any Fund to a Liquidating Account. The

primary purpose of each Liquidating Account shall be to facilitate the liquidation and

pricing of the assets contained therein for the benefit of the Participating Trusts holding a

beneficial interest therein. The period during which the Trustee may continue to hold any

such assets shall rest in its sole discretion.

Page 22: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

18

(b) Each Liquidating Account shall be maintained and administered solely for

the ratable benefit of the Participating Trusts whose cash, securities, or other assets has

been transferred thereto or deposited therein and each Participating Trust whose cash,

securities, or other assets have been transferred thereto or deposited therein shall have a

beneficial interest therein equal to the portion of such account represented by such

transfer or deposit.

8.2 Additional Powers and Duties of Trustee. The Trustee shall have, in addition to

all of the powers granted to it by law and by the terms of this Declaration of Trust, each and

every discretionary power of management of the assets contained in a Liquidating Account, (and

of all proceeds of such assets), that the Trustee shall deem necessary or convenient to accomplish

the purposes of such Liquidating Account. At the time of the establishment of a Liquidating

Account, and upon each deposit of additional money to such Account, the Trustee shall prepare a

schedule showing the interest of each Participating Trust therein. When the assets of such

Liquidating Account shall have been completely distributed, such schedule shall be thereafter

held as part of the permanent records of the Fund to which the Liquidating Account relates. The

Trustee shall include in any report of audit for a Fund a report for each related Liquidating

Account established hereunder. For purposes hereof, the value of assets transferred to or held in

a Liquidating Account (and the beneficial interest of any Participating Trust therein) may be

based upon value as provided in Section 5.2, or amortized cost, or book value, as determined by

the Trustee in its sole discretion.

8.3 Limitation on Contributions to Liquidating Account. No further contributions

shall be made to any Liquidating Account after its establishment, except that the Trustee shall

have the power and authority, if in the Trustee’s reasonable opinion such action is advisable for

the protection of any asset held therein, to borrow from others (to be secured by the assets held in

such Liquidating Account) and to make and renew such note or notes therefor as the Trustee may

determine.

8.4 Distributions. The Trustee may make distributions from a Liquidating Account

in cash or in kind or partly in cash and partly in kind, and, except as otherwise provided in the

Investment Characteristics with respect to any Fund for the Fund to which such Liquidating

Account relates, the time and manner of making all such distributions shall rest in the sole

discretion of the Trustee; provided that all such distributions as of any one time shall be made

ratably and on the same basis among the Participating Trusts that hold a beneficial interest in

such Liquidating Account. Income, gains, and losses attributable to a Liquidating Account shall

be allocated among the Participating Trusts that hold a beneficial interest in such Liquidating

Account, in proportion to such respective beneficial interests.

8.5 Effect of Establishing Liquidating Accounts. After an asset of a Fund has been

set apart in a Liquidating Account, such assets shall be subject to the provisions of this Article,

but such assets shall also be subject to all other provisions of this Declaration of Trust insofar as

the same shall be applicable thereto and not inconsistent with the provisions of this Article. For

the purpose of deposits to and withdrawals from a Fund, and for purposes of determining the

value of the Units of a Fund and the income, gains, or losses of a Fund that are allocated among

Participating Trusts pursuant to the other provisions of this Declaration of Trust, the value,

income, gains, or losses of any assets held in any Liquidating Account shall be excluded.

Page 23: DECLARATION OF TRUST ESTABLISHING THE TD AMERITRADE TRUST …

19

8.6 Fees and Expenses. Each Liquidating Account shall be charged with the

expenses attributable to the administration and management of such account (including, but not

limited to, brokerage fees, settlement charges, stamp taxes, duty, stock listing and related

expenses, attorneys’ fees and auditing fees). Such Liquidating Accounts shall remain as part of

the assets of the applicable Fund for purposes of determining the fee payable to the Trustee in

accordance with such fee schedule as may apply from time to time.

Units of such funds.

THEREFORE, in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 7.1 of the Declaration of Trust, Appendix A and

COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT FUNDS FOR EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Description of Fees and Share Classes

I. Share Class Overview

With respect to a Class of Units of a Fund (each a “Class” or “Share Class”), each Unit shall be of equal

value to every other Unit of the same Class. Each Unit of a Class of a Fund shall represent an undivided

proportionate interest in all the assets of the Fund. The fact that a Fund shall have been established and

designated without any specific establishment or designation of Classes, or that a Fund shall have more

than one established and designated Class, shall not limit the authority of the Trustee, in its sole

discretion and at any time, to subsequently establish and designate separate Classes, or one or more

additional Classes, of said Fund. As of any Valuation Date, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may make

a uniform change in the Units of any Class of any Fund either by dividing such Units into a greater

number of Units of lesser value, or combining such Units to produce a lesser number of Units of greater

value, provided that the proportionate interest of each Participating Trust in the Fund shall not thereby

be changed.

The Trustee charges a fee for its services in managing and administering each Fund (“Trustee Fee”).

The Trustee Fee accrues on a daily basis, is payable monthly in arrears and is charged directly to each

Fund. As disclosed in further detail below, the distinction between each Share Class is based upon the

manner in which such Trustee Fee is allocated to pay for services provided to the Trustee or to a

participating plan.

APPENDIX B

TO THE

DECLARATION OF TRUST

ESTABLISHING THE MATRIX TRUST COMPANY

COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT FUNDS FOR EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Description of Fees and Share Classes

I. Share Class Overview

With respect to a Class of Units of a Fund (each a “Class” or “Share Class”), each Unit shall be of equal

value to every other Unit of the same Class. Each Unit of a Class of a Fund shall represent an undivided

proportionate interest in all the assets of the Fund. The fact that a Fund shall have been established and

designated without any specific establishment or designation of Classes, or that a Fund shall have more

than one established and designated Class, shall not limit the authority of the Trustee, in its sole discretion

and at any time, to subsequently establish and designate separate Classes, or one or more additional

Classes, of said Fund. As of any Valuation Date, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may make a uniform

change in the Units of any Class of any Fund either by dividing such Units into a greater number of Units

of lesser value, or combining such Units to produce a lesser number of Units of greater value, provided

that the proportionate interest of each Participating Trust in the Fund shall not thereby be changed.

The Trustee charges a fee for its services in managing and administering each Fund (“Trustee Fee”). The

Trustee Fee accrues on a daily basis, is payable monthly in arrears and is charged directly to each Fund.

As disclosed in further detail below, the distinction between each Share Class is based upon the manner

in which such Trustee Fee is allocated to pay for services provided to the Trustee or to a participating plan.

held in each Share Class II Fund. A portion of the Trustee Fee, 0.25%, will be paid to a qualified

custodian for unit holder servicing and administrative services. Such services may include, but

are not limited to, recordkeeping, unit holder communication, transmission of purchase and

redemption orders, and other services with respect to the administration of units of each Fund.

AMENDMENT

TO APPENDIX A AND APPENDIX B OF THE

DECLARATION OF TRUST

ESTABLISHING THE MATRIX TRUST COMPANY

COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT FUNDS FOR EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

On June 28, 2019, Matrix Trust Company (“Trustee”), as the successor in interest to TD Ameritrade Trust

Company , assumed the TD Ameritrade Trust Collective Investment Funds for Employee Benefit Plans,

dated April 23, 2014 (the “A&R Declaration of Trust”), as amended on October 30, 2018 by the

Amendment to Appendix A and Appendix B of the A&R Declaration of Trust (“First Amendment”). In

connection with the assumption, the A&R Declaration of Trust was further amended by a second

amendment to the A&R Declaration of Trust, dated June 28, 2019 (“Second Amendment”) and a third

amendment to the A&R Declaration of Trust, dated January 16, 2020 (collectively with the First

Amendment and the Second Amendment, “Amendments”). The Trustee now wishes to further amend

Appendix A and Appendix B of the A&R Declaration of Trust, as amended to date, in order to continue

GoalPath 2040 Aggressive Enhanced Index Portfolio

The GoalPath 2040 Aggressive Enhanced Index Portfolio focuses on growth consistent with its target

retirement date and, as it approaches its target date, management of retirement income risk. It seeks to

allocate between enhanced index fixed income and enhanced index equity growth investments to balance

income risk management against the opportunity to grow expected retirement income. An “enhanced

index” fund is a fund that seeks to enhance the returns of an index by using active management to modify

the weights of holdings for additional return. The overall effect of interest rate fluctuations and equity

market performance may impact the ability to achieve a desired level of retirement income. The portfolio

may be appropriate for investors with a higher risk tolerance and a planned retirement date on or about

2040.

APPENDIX B

TO THE

DECLARATION OF TRUST

ESTABLISHING THE MATRIX TRUST COMPANY

COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT FUNDS FOR EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Description of Fees and Share Classes

I. Share Class Overview

With respect to a Class of Units of a Fund (each a “Class” or “Share Class”), each Unit shall be of equal

value to every other Unit of the same Class. Each Unit of a Class of a Fund shall represent an undivided

proportionate interest in all the assets of the Fund. The fact that a Fund shall have been established and

designated without any specific establishment or designation of Classes, or that a Fund shall have more

than one established and designated Class, shall not limit the authority of the Trustee, in its sole discretion

and at any time, to subsequently establish and designate separate Classes, or one or more additional

Classes, of said Fund. As of any Valuation Date, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may make a uniform

change in the Units of any Class of any Fund either by dividing such Units into a greater number of Units

of lesser value, or combining such Units to produce a lesser number of Units of greater value, provided

that the proportionate interest of each Participating Trust in the Fund shall not thereby be changed.

The Trustee charges a fee for its services in managing and administering each Fund (“Trustee Fee”). The

Trustee Fee accrues on a daily basis, is payable monthly in arrears and is charged directly to each Fund.

As disclosed in further detail below, the distinction between each Share Class is based upon the manner

in which such Trustee Fee is allocated to pay for services provided to the Trustee or to a participating plan.

held in each Share Class II Fund. A portion of the Trustee Fee, 0.25%, will be paid to a qualified

custodian for unit holder servicing and administrative services. Such services may include, but

are not limited to, recordkeeping, unit holder communication, transmission of purchase and

redemption orders, and other services with respect to the administration of units of each Fund.

Trustee may serve as such a qualified custodian, in which case the 0.25% will be paid directly to

the accounts of Participating Trusts.
