Notes to Financial Statements |
April 30, 2013 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The Global X Funds (the “Trust”) is a Delaware Statutory Trust formed on March 6, 2008. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. As of April 30, 2013 the Trust had seventy-nine portfolios, thirty-five of which were operational. The financial statements herein and the related notes pertain to the Global X Silver Miners ETF, Global X Gold Explorers ETF, Global X Pure Gold Miners ETF, Global X Copper Miners ETF, Global X Uranium ETF, Global X Lithium ETF, Global X Fertilizers/Potash ETF and Global X Junior Miners ETF (the “Funds”). Each Fund is non-diversified.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
USE OF ESTIMATES — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and could have a material impact to the Funds.
SECURITY VALUATION — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded (or at approximately 4:00 pm if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent mean between the quoted bid and asked prices (absent both bid and asked prices on such exchange, the bid price may be used).
For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.
Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Funds’ Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
SECURITY VALUATION (continued)
de-listed from its primary trading exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. In addition, the Funds may fair value their securities if an event that may materially affect the value of the Funds’ securities that traded outside of the United States (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the time of the security's last close and the time that the Funds calculate their net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. Events that may be Significant Events include: government actions, natural disasters, armed conflict, acts of terrorism and significant market fluctuations. If Global X Management Company LLC (“Adviser”) becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Funds calculate net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration all relevant information reasonably available to the Committee. As of April 30, 2013, there were $207,205, $10,442, $1,507,951 and $7,208 of fair valued securities in the Global X Silver Miners ETF, Global X Pure Gold Miners ETF, Global X Lithium ETF, Global X Junior Miners ETF, respectively. There were no other securities priced using the fair value procedures.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date
Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar investments, fair value of investments for which the Fund has the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near term, and short-term investments valued at amortized cost)
Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments, fair value of investments for which the Fund does not have the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near term)

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
SECURITY VALUATION (concluded)
Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.
For the period ended April 30, 2013 there have been no significant changes to the Funds’ fair valuation methodologies.
The following table summarizes the quantitative inputs and assumptions used for items categorized as material Level 3 investments as of April 30, 2013. The disclosures below also include qualitative information on the sensitivity of the fair value measurements to changes in the significant unobservable inputs.
Global X Lithium Fund ETF
Quantitative information about Level 3 fair value |
Assets | | Fair Value at 4/30/13 | | | Valuation Technique(s) | | Unobservable Input | | Discount percentage Range | |
Common Stock | | $ | 1 ,507,951 | | | Last Traded Price | | Last Traded Price Comparability Adjustment 0% | | | 0 | % |
The unobservable inputs used to determine fair value of Level 3 assets may have similar or diverging impacts on valuation. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation and interrelationships between those inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS — Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by Citibank N.A. and are designated as being held on each Fund’s behalf by its custodian under a book-entry system. Each Fund monitors the adequacy of the collateral on a daily basis and can require the seller to provide additional collateral in the event the market value of the securities pledged falls below the carrying value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. It is the Funds’ policy to only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other financial institutions which are deemed by the investment adviser to be creditworthy. The Funds bear the risk of loss in the event that the other party to a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligations and the Funds are prevented from exercising their rights to dispose of the underlying securities received as collateral and the risk of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES — It is each Fund’s intention to qualify or continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income taxes have been made in the financial statements.
The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more-likely-than-not” (i.e., greater than 50 percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013 (Unaudited) |
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last three tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
As of and during the period ended April 30, 2013, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on specific identification. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from the settlement date.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Statement of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- The Funds distribute their net investment income on a pro rata basis. Any net realized capital gains are distributed annually. All distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date.
CREATION UNITS -- The Funds issue and redeem shares (“Shares”) at Net Asset Value (“NAV”) and only in large blocks of Shares (each block of Shares for a Fund is called a “Creation Unit” or multiples thereof). Purchasers of Creation Units (“Authorized Participants“) at NAV must pay a standard creation transaction fee per transaction. The fee is a single charge and will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an investor on the same day. An Authorized Participant who holds Creation Units and wishes to redeem at NAV would also pay a standard Redemption Fee per transaction to the custodian on the date of such redemption, regardless of the number of Creation Units redeemed that day.

5. TAX INFORMATION
The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to undistributed net investment income (loss), accumulated net realized gain (loss) or paid-in capital, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise.
The following differences, primarily attributable to distribution reclassifications, investment in master limited partnership, foreign currency, redemptions in-kind, sales of passive foreign investment companies, have been reclassified to/from the following accounts during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012.
Global X Funds | | Paid-in Capital | | | Undistributed Net Investment Income | | | Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss) | |

For Federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards represent realized losses of the Funds that may be carried forward for a maximum period of eight years and applied against future gains. As of October 31, 2012, the Funds that had capital loss carryforwards are listed below:
| | Global X Silver Miners ETF | | | Global X Gold Explorers ETF | | | Global X Uranium ETF | | | Global X Lithium ETF | | | Global X Junior Miners ETF | |
Oct. 2019 | | $ | 8,433,465 | | | $ | 130,976 | | | $ | 12,705,798 | | | $ | 7,329,308 | | | $ | 506,011 | |
During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, no Funds utilized capital loss carry forwards to offset capital gains.
Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be used prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, preenactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law. Losses carried forward under these new provisions are as follows:
Global X Funds | | Short-Term Loss | | | Long-Term Loss | | | Total | |
Global X Silver Miners ETF | | $ | 2,110,101 | | | $ | 2,575,397 | | | $ | 4,685,498 | |

The preceding differences between book and tax cost are primarily due to mark-to-market treatment of passive foreign investment companies and wash sales.
6. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS
The Funds invest in securities of foreign issuers in several countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries.
The securities markets of emerging countries are less liquid and subject to greater price volatility, and have a smaller market capitalization, than the U.S. securities markets. In certain countries, there may be fewer publicly traded securities and the market may be dominated by a few issues or sectors. Issuers and securities markets in such countries are not subject to as extensive and frequent accounting, financial and other reporting requirements or as comprehensive government regulations as are issuers and securities markets in the U.S. In particular, the assets and profits appearing on the financial statements of emerging country issuers may not reflect their financial position or results of operations in the same manner as financial statements for U.S. issuers. Substantially less information may be publicly available about emerging country issuers than is available about issuers in the United States.
The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Funds accrue and apply such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or capital gains are earned.
The Funds use a replication strategy. A replication strategy is an indexing strategy that involves investing in the securities of the Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Underlying Index. The Funds may utilize a representative sampling strategy with respect to their Underlying Indices when a replication strategy might be detrimental to their shareholders, such as when there are practical difficulties or substantial costs involved in compiling a portfolio of equity securities to follow its Underlying Index, or, in certain instances, when securities in the Underlying

Pursuant to the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trustees of the Trust and the Trust’s officers are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties.
8. LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES
The Funds may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Funds’ total assets. Security loans made pursuant to the securities lending agreement are required at all times to be secured by collateral equal to at least 102% for U.S. based securities and 105% for foreign based securities. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loans were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Funds could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Funds bear the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. As of April 30, 2013, the value of securities on loan was $10,124,610, $601,505, $16,348,745 and $4,826,211 for the Global X Silver Miners ETF, Global X Copper Miners ETF, Global X Uranium ETF and Global X Lithium ETF, respectively.

9. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The Funds enter into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However the Funds have not had prior gains or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Funds’ existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
10. REVERSE SHARE SPLIT
Effective May 16, 2013, the Global X Gold Explorers ETF, Global X Pure Gold Miners ETF, Global X Uranium ETF and the Global X Junior Miners ETF executed a reverse share split for shareholders of record after the close of markets on May 15, 2013. The effect of this transaction was to divide the number of outstanding shares of the Fund by the ratio below, resulting in a corresponding increase in the net asset value per share. The capital share activity presented in the statement of changes in net assets for each of the years in the period then ended, and per share data in the financial highlights for each of the years in the period then ended have been given retroactive effect to reflect these reverse share splits. There were no changes in net assets, results of operations or total return as a result of these transactions. The details of the reverse split are as follows:
Fund Name | | | Ratio |
Global X Gold Explorers ETF | | | 1:4 |
Global X Pure Gold Miners ETF | | | 1:2 |
Global X Uranium ETF | | | 1:3 |
Global X Junior Miners ETF | | | 1:3 |

The Funds have been evaluated regarding the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events. Based on this evaluation, no additional disclosure or adjustments were required to the financial statements as the date the financial statements were issued.
Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited) |
|
All Exchange Traded Funds (“ETF”) have operating expenses. As a shareholder of an ETF, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for ETF management, administrative services, commissions, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns. In addition, a shareholder is responsible for brokerage fees as a result of their investment in the Fund.
Operating expenses such as these are deducted from an ETF’s gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the ETF’s average net assets; this percentage is known as the ETF’s expense ratio.
The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.
You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Funds, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Funds under “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other funds. It assumes that the Funds had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.
NOTE: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), requires that each mutual fund’s board of trustees, including a majority of those trustees who are not "interested persons" of the mutual fund, as defined in the 1940 Act ("Independent Trustees"), consider on an initial basis and periodically thereafter (as required by the 1940 Act), at an in person meeting called for such purpose, the terms of each fund’s investment advisory agreement and approve each agreement with such changes as the Independent Trustees deem appropriate.
At a quarterly Board meeting held on November 16, 2012, the Board of Trustees (including the Independent Trustees) considered and unanimously approved the continuation of (i) the Investment Advisory Agreement ("Renewal Investment Advisory Agreement") for each Fund covered by this Semi-Annual Report (each a "Renewal Fund") and (ii) the Supervision and Administration Agreement between the Trust ("Renewal Supervision and Administration Agreement"), on behalf of each Renewal Fund, and Global X Management Company ("Global X Management"). The Renewal Investment Advisory Agreement and the Renewal Supervision and Administration Agreement are referred to herein as the "Renewal Agreements."
In advance of the Board meeting, the Board (including the Independent Trustees) requested (in writing) detailed information from Global X Management in connection with their consideration of the Renewal Agreements and received and reviewed written responses from Global X Management and supporting materials relating to those requests for information.
In determining to approve the continuation of the Renewal Agreements for each Renewal Fund, the Board concluded that the Renewal Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interests of each Renewal Fund and its shareholders, respectively. In approving the continuation of the Renewal Agreements for each Renewal Fund, the Board considered among other things the following categories of material factors. In addition, the Board based their determinations regarding the continuation of each of the Renewal Fund Agreements on their consideration of all of the materials provided to them by Global X Management and other service providers for the Renewal Funds throughout the year.
In reaching this decision, the Board did not assign relative weights to the factors discussed below nor did the Board deem any one factor or group of them to be controlling in and of themselves. Certain factors considered by the Board (including the Independent Trustees) with respect to the approval of the continuation of the Renewal Agreements are discussed below.
Nature, extent and quality of services
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the terms of the Renewal Agreements and the range of services that would continue to be provided to each Renewal Fund in accordance with the Renewal Agreements; |
| • | Global X Management’s key personnel and the portfolio managers who would continue to provide investment advisory, supervision and administrative services to each Renewal Fund. In connection with these considerations, the Board noted that Global X Management had significantly increased its support staff and operational resources since the inception of each Renewal Fund; |
| • | Global X Management’s responsibilities under the Renewal Agreements, among other things, to: (i) manage the investment operations of each Renewal Fund and the composition of each Renewal Fund’s assets, including the purchase, retention and disposition of its holdings, (ii) provide quarterly reports to the Trust’s officers and Board and other reports as the Board deems necessary or appropriate, (iii) vote proxies, exercise consents, and exercise all other rights relating to securities and assets held by each Renewal Fund, (iv) select broker- dealers to execute portfolio transactions |
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
| | for each Renewal Fund when necessary, (v) assist in the preparation and filing of reports and proxy statements (if any) to the shareholders of each Renewal Fund, the periodic updating of the registration statement, prospectuses, statement of additional information, and other reports and documents for each Renewal Fund that are required to be filed by the Trust with the SEC and other regulatory and governmental bodies, and (vi) monitor anticipated purchases and redemptions of the shares (including creation units) of each Renewal Fund by shareholders and new investors; |
| • | the nature, extent and quality of the all of the services (including advisory, administrative and compliance services) that have been provided by Global X Management or made available to each Renewal Fund and the adequacy of Global X Management’s personnel resources that would continue to be made available to each Renewal Fund; and |
| • | Global X Management’s experience and the professional qualifications of Global X Management’s key personnel. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Renewal Funds by Global X Management.
Performance
With respect to this fact, the Board considered each Renewal Fund’s total return and investment performance (as available) relative to (i) the performance of unaffiliated comparable specialized and/or focused exchange-traded funds and other registered funds in the same classification as each of the Renewal Funds, which performance information is publicly available from such registered funds as well as other third party sources; and (ii) the performance of comparable registered funds and pertinent indexes.
Based on these considerations and comparisons, the Board concluded that the investment performance of each operational Renewal Fund did not adversely affect the Board approval of the continuance of the Renewal Agreements.
Cost of Services and Profitability
The Board considered Global X Management’s cost to provide investment management and related services to each Renewal Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the Management Fee that has been borne by each Renewal Fund under the Renewal Agreements for the various investment advisory, supervisory and administrative services that each Renewal Fund requires under a unitary fee structure (including the types of fees and expenses that are not included within the unitary fee and would be borne by each Renewal Fund).
In addition, the Board considered the current and expected profitability to Global X Management from all services provided to the Renewal Funds and all aspects of Global X Management’s relationship with each of the Renewal Funds. Global X Management discussed with the Board its current and expected profitability with respect to each of the Renewal Funds with respect to which Global X Management generates or is expected to generate a profit. In addition, Global X Management noted that it was unlikely that it would generate profits in the upcoming year from its services to certain of the smaller Renewal Funds because of the small amount of assets under management and the required payment of certain fixed fees and expenses for each of the Renewal Funds.
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the profits anticipated to be realized by Global X Management from its relationship with each of the Renewal Funds would not be excessive and should not preclude approval of the continuance of each Renewal Agreement.
Comparison of Fees and Services
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | comparative information with respect to the Management Fee paid to Global X Management by each of the Renewal Funds. In connection with this consideration, Global X Management provided the Board with comparative expense data for each of the Renewal Funds, including fees and expenses paid by unaffiliated comparable specialized and/or focused exchange-traded funds and other comparable registered funds and fees and expenses paid by other funds that are series of the Trust under the same unified Management Fee structure; |
| • | the structure of the unified Management Fee structure (which includes as one component the investment advisory fee for each Renewal Fund) and the current total expense ratios for each of the Renewal Funds. In this regard, the Board took into consideration that the purpose of adopting a unitary Management Fee structure for the Renewal Funds was to create a simple, all-inclusive fee that would provide a level of predictability with respect to the overall expense ratio (i.e., the total fees) of each of the Renewal Funds and that the proposed Management Fee for each Renewal Fund was set at a competitive fee to make each Renewal Fund viable in the marketplace; and |
| • | that, under the unified Management Fee structure, Global X Management is responsible for most ordinary expenses of the Renewal Funds, including the costs of various third-party services required by the Funds, including investment advisory, administrative, audit, certain custody, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs, but that each Renewal Fund would bear other expenses not covered under the proposed all-inclusive Management Fee, such as taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and other transaction expenses, interest expenses, and extraordinary expenses. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the Management Fee and total expense ratio of each Renewal Fund should not preclude approval of the Renewal Agreements.
Economies of Scale
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Renewal Funds grow and whether the proposed unitary Management Fee for each Renewal Fund reflected these economies of scale; |
| • | the significant investment of time, personnel and other resources that Global X Management has made and intends to continue to make in the Renewal Funds in order to seek to assure that the Renewal Funds are attractive to investors; and |
| • | that the proposed unitary Management Fee provides a high level of certainty as to the total level of expenses for the Renewal Funds and their shareholders. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that continuation of the unitary Management Fee for each Renewal Fund was reasonable.
Other Benefits
The Board considered any other benefits realized by Global X Management as a result from its relations relationships with each Renewal Fund and concluded that all information it considered supported approval of the continuation of the Renewal Agreements.

Each Fund is non-diversified.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the Significant Accounting Policies followed by the Funds.
USE OF ESTIMATES — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and could have a material impact to the Funds.
SECURITY VALUATION — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded (or at approximately 4:00 pm if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent mean between the quoted bid and asked prices (absent both bid and asked prices on such exchange, the bid price may be used).
For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Securities for which market prices are not "readily available" are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Funds’ Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the "Committee") designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. In addition, the Funds may fair value their securities if an event that may materially affect the value of the Funds’ securities that traded outside of the United States (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the time of the security's last close and the time that the Funds calculate net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. Events that may be Significant Events include: government actions, natural disaster, armed conflict, acts of terrorism and significant market fluctuations. If Global X Management Company LLC (the “Adviser”) becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Funds calculate net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee. As of April 30, 2013, there were securities valued using Fair Value Procedures of $62,676, $35,456, $120,753, $115,739 and $92,340 in Global X China Materials ETF, Global X Colombia 20 ETF, Global X Brazil Mid Cap ETF, Global X Brazil Consumer ETF Funds, and Global X FTSE Greece 20 ETF, respectively. There were no other securities priced using the Fair Value Procedures.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date
Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar investments, fair value of investments for which the Funds have the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near term, and short-term investments valued at amortized cost)
Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments, fair value of investments for which the Funds do not have the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near term)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |
April 30, 2013 (Unaudited) |
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.
For the six months ended April 30, 2013, there have been no significant changes to the Funds’ fair valuation methodologies.
The following table summarizes the quantitative inputs and assumptions used for items categorized as material Level 3 investments as of April 30, 2013. The disclosures below also include qualitative information on the sensitivity of the fair value measurements to changes in the significant unobservable inputs.
Global X China Materials ETF
Quantitative information about level 3 fair value measurements |
Assets | | Fair Value at 4/30/13 | | | Valuation Technique(s) | | Unobservable Input | | Discount Percentage Range |
Common Stock | | $ | 62,676 | | | Discount from the Last Traded Price | | Last Traded Price Comparability Adjustment % | | 0% to 75% |
The unobservable inputs used to determine fair value of Level 3 assets may have similar or diverging impacts on valuation. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation and interrelationships between those inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS — Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by Citibank, N.A. and are designated as being held on each Fund’s behalf by its custodian under a book-entry system. Each Fund monitors the adequacy of the collateral on a daily basis and can require the seller to provide additional collateral in the event the market value of the securities pledged falls below the carrying value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. It is the Funds’ policy to only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other financial institutions which are deemed by the investment adviser to be creditworthy. The Fund bears the risk of loss in the event that the other party to a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligations and the Fund is prevented from exercising its rights to dispose of the underlying securities received as collateral and the risk of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES — It is each Fund’s intention to qualify or continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income taxes have been made in the financial statements.
The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is "more-likely-than-not" (i.e., greater than 50 percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last three tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
As of and during the six months ended April 30, 2013, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on specific identification. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from the settlement date.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION — The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Statement of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS — The Funds distribute their net investment income on a pro rata basis. Any net realized capital gains are distributed annually. All distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date.
CREATION UNITS — The Funds issue and redeem shares ("Shares") at Net Asset Value (“NAV”) and only in large blocks of Shares, (each block of Shares for a Fund is called a "Creation Unit" or multiples thereof). Purchasers of Creation Units ("Authorized Participants") at NAV must pay a standard creation transaction fee per transaction. The fee is a single charge and will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an investor on the same day. An Authorized Participant who holds Creation Units and wishes to redeem at NAV would also pay a standard Redemption Fee per transaction payable to the Custodian on the date of such redemption, regardless of the number of Creation Units redeemed that day.

5. TAX INFORMATION
The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to undistributed net investment income (loss), accumulated net realized gain (loss) or paid-in capital, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise.
The following differences, primarily attributable to utilization of earnings and profits on shareholder redemptions and distributions reclassifications, foreign currency, redemptions in-kind and sales of passive foreign investment companies, have been reclassified to/from the following accounts during the fiscal period ended October 31, 2012.

5. TAX INFORMATION (continued)
Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be used prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, preenactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law. Losses carried forward under these new provisions are as follows:
Global X Funds | | Short-Term Loss | | | Long-Term Loss | | | Total | |

5. TAX INFORMATION (continued)
The preceding differences between book and tax cost are primarily due to mark to market treatment of passive foreign investment companies and wash sales.
6. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS
The Funds invest in securities of foreign issuers in several countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries.
The securities markets of emerging countries are less liquid and subject to greater price volatility, and have a smaller market capitalization, than the U.S. securities markets. In certain countries, there may be fewer publicly traded securities and the market may be dominated by a few issues or sectors.
Issuers and securities markets in such countries are not subject to as extensive and frequent accounting, financial and other reporting requirements or as comprehensive government regulations as are issuers and securities markets in the U.S. In particular, the assets and profits appearing on the financial statements of emerging country issuers may not reflect their financial position or results of operations in the same manner as financial statements for U.S. issuers. Substantially less information may be publicly available about emerging country issuers than is available about issuers in the United States.
The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Funds accrue and apply such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or capital gains are earned.
The Funds use a replication strategy. A replication strategy is an indexing strategy that involves investing in the securities of the Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Underlying Index. The Funds may utilize a representative sampling strategy with respect to its Underlying Index when a replication strategy might be detrimental to its shareholders, such as when there are practical difficulties or substantial costs involved in compiling a portfolio of equity securities to follow its Underlying Index, or, in certain instances, when securities in the Underlying Index become temporarily illiquid, unavailable or less liquid, or due to legal restrictions (such as diversification requirements that apply to the Funds but not the Underlying Indexes).
Certain Funds may invest in commodity related securities, which are susceptible to fluctuations in certain commodity markets. Any negative changes in commodity markets could have a great impact on those securities.

8. REVERSE SHARE SPLIT
Effective May 16, 2013, the Global X China Materials ETF and the Global X FTSE Argentina 20 ETF executed a 1-for-2 reverse share split for shareholders of record after the close of markets on May 15, 2013. The effect of this transaction was to divide the number of outstanding shares of the Funds by two, resulting in a corresponding increase in the net asset value per share. The capital share activity presented in the statement of changes in net assets for each of the years in the period then ended, and per share data in the financial highlights for each of the years in the period then ended have been given retroactive effect to reflect these reverse share splits. There were no changes in net assets, results of operations or total return as a result of these transactions.

9. LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES
The Funds may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Funds’ total assets. Security loans made pursuant to the securities lending agreement are required at all times to be secured by collateral equal to at least 102% for U.S. based securities and 105% for foreign based securities. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loans were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Funds could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Funds bear the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. As of April 30, 2013, the value of the securities on loan was $21,866,509, $15,139,656, $3,497,288 and $650,720 for the Global X China Consumer ETF, Global X FTSE Colombia 20 ETF, Global X FTSE Norway 30 ETF and Global X FTSE Nordic Region ETF, respectively.
10. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The Funds enter into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However the Funds have not had prior gains or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Funds’ existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Funds have evaluated the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events.
Effective June 24, 2013, the Adviser to the Global X FTSE Colombia 20 ETF, entered into a voluntary Expense Limitation Agreement with the Fund to assure that the Fund’s total operating expenses (exclusive of taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and other transaction expenses, interest and extraordinary expenses (such as litigation and indemnification expenses)) will not exceed 0.68% of the Fund’s average daily net assets per year until at least July 1, 2014 and is annually renewable thereafter.
Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited) |
|
All Exchange Traded Funds (“ETF”) have operating expenses. As a shareholder of an ETF, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for ETF management, administrative services, brokerage fees, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns. In addition, a shareholder is responsible for brokerage fees as a result of their investment in the Fund.
Operating expenses such as these are deducted from an ETF’s gross income and directly reduce your final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the ETF’s average net assets; this percentage is known as the ETF’s expense ratio.
The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.
You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Funds, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Funds under “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other funds. It assumes that the Funds had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.
NOTE: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), requires that each mutual fund’s board of trustees, including a majority of those trustees who are not "interested persons" of the mutual fund, as defined in the 1940 Act ("Independent Trustees"), consider on an initial basis and periodically thereafter (as required by the 1940 Act), at an in person meeting called for such purpose, the terms of each fund’s investment advisory agreement and approve each agreement with such changes as the Independent Trustees deem appropriate.
At a quarterly Board meeting held on November 16, 2012, the Board of Trustees (including the Independent Trustees) considered and unanimously approved the continuation of (i) the Investment Advisory Agreement ("Renewal Investment Advisory Agreement") for each Fund covered by this Semi-Annual Report (each a "Renewal Fund") and (ii) the Supervision and Administration Agreement between the Trust ("Renewal Supervision and Administration Agreement"), on behalf of each Renewal Fund, and Global X Management Company ("Global X Management"). The Renewal Investment Advisory Agreement and the Renewal Supervision and Administration Agreement are referred to herein as the "Renewal Agreements."
In advance of the Board meeting, the Board (including the Independent Trustees) requested (in writing) detailed information from Global X Management in connection with their consideration of the Renewal Agreements and received and reviewed written responses from Global X Management and supporting materials relating to those requests for information. Certain of the Renewal Funds had not commenced operations as of the November 16, 2012 meeting (the “Non-Operational Renewal Funds”). With respect to the Non-Operational Renewal Funds, Global X Management noted that the materials that were presented to the Board at the meetings at which each of the Non-Operational Renewal Funds were initially approved were still relevant and current.
In determining to approve the continuation of the Renewal Agreements for each Renewal Fund, the Board concluded that the Renewal Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interests of each Renewal Fund and its shareholders, respectively. In approving the continuation of the Renewal Agreements for each Renewal Fund, the Board considered among other things the following categories of material factors. In addition, the Board based their determinations regarding the continuation of each of the Renewal Fund Agreements on their consideration of all of the materials provided to them by Global X Management and other service providers for the Renewal Funds throughout the year.
In reaching this decision, the Board did not assign relative weights to the factors discussed below nor did the Board deem any one factor or group of them to be controlling in and of themselves. Certain factors considered by the Board (including the Independent Trustees) with respect to the approval of the continuation of the Renewal Agreements are discussed below.
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
Nature, extent and quality of services
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the terms of the Renewal Agreements and the range of services that would continue to be provided to each Renewal Fund in accordance with the Renewal Agreements; |
| • | Global X Management’s key personnel and the portfolio managers who would continue to provide investment advisory, supervision and administrative services to each Renewal Fund. In connection with these considerations, the Board noted that Global X Management had significantly increased its support staff and operational resources since the inception of each Renewal Fund; |
| • | Global X Management’s responsibilities under the Renewal Agreements, among other things, to: (i) manage the investment operations of each Renewal Fund and the composition of each Renewal Fund’s assets, including the purchase, retention and disposition of its holdings, (ii) provide quarterly reports to the Trust’s officers and Board and other reports as the Board deems necessary or appropriate, (iii) vote proxies, exercise consents, and exercise all other rights relating to securities and assets held by each Renewal Fund, (iv) select broker- dealers to execute portfolio transactions for each Renewal Fund when necessary, (v) assist in the preparation and filing of reports and proxy statements (if any) to the shareholders of each Renewal Fund, the periodic updating of the registration statement, prospectuses, statement of additional information, and other reports and documents for each Renewal Fund that are required to be filed by the Trust with the SEC and other regulatory and governmental bodies, and (vi) monitor anticipated purchases and redemptions of the shares (including creation units) of each Renewal Fund by shareholders and new investors; |
| • | the nature, extent and quality of the all of the services (including advisory, administrative and compliance services) that have been provided by Global X Management or made available to each Renewal Fund and the adequacy of Global X Management’s personnel resources that would continue to be made available to each Renewal Fund; and |
| • | Global X Management’s experience and the professional qualifications of Global X Management’s key personnel. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Renewal Fund by Global X Management.
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
Performance
With respect to this fact, the Board considered each Renewal Fund’s total return and investment performance (as available) relative to (i) the performance of unaffiliated comparable specialized and/or focused exchange-traded funds and other registered funds in the same classification as each of the Renewal Funds, which performance information is publicly available from such registered funds as well as other third party sources; and (ii) the performance of comparable registered funds and pertinent indexes. The Board noted that certain of the Non-Operational Renewal Funds had not yet commenced operations. The Board observed that, for the Non-Operational Renewal Funds, meaningful data relating to investment performance was not available and, therefore, could not be a factor in approving the Renewal Agreements for the non-operational Renewal Funds.
Based on these considerations and comparisons, the Board concluded that the investment performance of each operational Renewal Fund did not adversely affect the Board approval of the continuance of the Renewal Agreements.
Cost of Services and Profitability
The Board considered Global X Management’s cost to provide investment management and related services to each Renewal Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the Management Fee that has been borne by each Renewal Fund under the Renewal Agreements for the various investment advisory, supervisory and administrative services that each Renewal Fund requires under a unitary fee structure (including the types of fees and expenses that are not included within the unitary fee and would be borne by each Renewal Fund).
In addition, the Board considered the current and expected profitability to Global X Management from all services provided to the Renewal Funds and all aspects of Global X Management’s relationship with each of the Renewal Funds. Global X Management discussed with the Board its current and expected profitability with respect to each of the Renewal Funds with respect to which Global X Management generates or is expected to generate a profit. In addition, Global X Management noted that it was unlikely that it would generate profits in the upcoming year from its services to certain of the smaller Renewal Funds because of the small amount of assets under management and the required payment of certain fixed fees and expenses for each of the Renewal Funds. With respect to the Non-Operational Funds, Global X Management noted that the information presented to the Board at the meeting at which each Non-Operational Fund was initially approved was still relevant and current.
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the profits anticipated to be realized by Global X Management from its relationship with each of the Renewal Funds would not be excessive and should not preclude approval of the continuance of each Renewal Agreement.
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
Comparison of Fees and Services
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | comparative information with respect to the Management Fee paid to Global X Management by each of the Renewal Funds. In connection with this consideration, Global X Management provided the Board at the November 16, 2012 meeting (and with respect to the Non-Operational Renewal Funds, at the meeting at which each Non-Operational Fund was initially approved) with comparative expense data for each of the Renewal Funds, including fees and expenses paid by unaffiliated comparable specialized and/or focused exchange-traded funds and other comparable registered funds and fees and expenses paid by other funds that are series of the Trust under the same unified Management Fee structure. With respect to the Non-Operational Funds, Global X Management noted that the information presented to the Board at the meeting at which each Non-Operational Fund was initially approved was still relevant and current; |
| • | the structure of the unified Management Fee structure (which includes as one component the investment advisory fee for each Renewal Fund) and the current total expense ratios for each of the Renewal Funds. In this regard, the Board took into consideration that the purpose of adopting a unitary Management Fee structure for the Renewal Funds was to create a simple, all-inclusive fee that would provide a level of predictability with respect to the overall expense ratio (i.e., the total fees) of each of the Renewal Funds and that the proposed Management Fee for each Renewal Fund was set at a competitive fee to make each Renewal Fund viable in the marketplace; |
| • | that, under the unified Management Fee structure, Global X Management is responsible for most ordinary expenses of the Renewal Funds, including the costs of various third-party services required by the Funds, including investment advisory, administrative, audit, certain custody, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs, but that each Renewal Fund would bear other expenses not covered under the all-inclusive Management Fee, such as asset-based custody fees and expenses for certain of the Renewal Funds, taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and other transaction expenses, interest expenses, and extraordinary expenses; and |
| • | that Global X Management has contractually agreed pursuant to an expense limitation with respect to certain Renewal Funds to waive fees payable to Global X Management and/or limit fees and operating expenses to the extent necessary to assure that the total annual operating expenses (exclusive of taxes, brokerage fees, commissions and other transaction expenses, interest and extraordinary expenses) of the relevant Renewal Fund will not exceed a specified annual rate until a certain date and that Global X Management intends these arrangements to benefit shareholders of the relevant Renewal Fund by limiting the maximum level of expenses that can be incurred that are not part of the unified Management Fee. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the proposed Management Fee and total expense ratio of each Renewal Fund should not preclude approval of the Renewal Agreements.
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
Economies of Scale
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Renewal Funds grow and whether the proposed unitary Management Fee for each Renewal Fund reflected these economies of scale; |
| • | the significant investment of time, personnel and other resources that Global X Management has made and intends to continue to make in the Renewal Funds in order to seek to assure that the Renewal Funds are attractive to investors; and |
| • | that the proposed unitary Management Fee provides a high level of certainty as to the total level of expenses for the Renewal Funds and their shareholders. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that continuation of the unitary Management Fee for each Renewal Fund was reasonable.
Other Benefits
The Board considered any other benefits realized by Global X Management as a result from its relations relationships with each Renewal Fund and concluded that all information it considered supported approval of the continuation of the Renewal Agreements.

Notes to Financial Statements |
April 30, 2013 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The Global X Funds (the "Trust") is a Delaware Statutory Trust formed on March 6, 2008. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. As of April 30, 2013, the Trust had seventy-nine portfolios, thirty-five of which were operational. The financial statements herein and the related notes pertain to the Global X SuperDividend ETF, Global X SuperDividend U.S. ETF, Global X Canada Preferred ETF and Global X Social Media Index ETF (each a “Fund”, collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund is non-diversified.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
USE OF ESTIMATES — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and could have a material impact to the Funds.
SECURITY VALUATION — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded (or at approximately 4:00 pm if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent mean between the quoted bid and asked prices (absent both bid and asked prices on such exchange, the bid price may be used).
For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
SECURITY VALUATION (continued)
Securities for which market prices are not "readily available" are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Funds’ Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. In addition, the Funds may fair value their securities if an event that may materially affect the value of the Funds’ securities that traded outside of the United States (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the time of the security's last close and the time that the Funds calculate their net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. Events that may be Significant Events include: government actions, natural disasters, armed conflict, acts of terrorism and significant market fluctuations. If Global X Management Company LLC (“Adviser”) becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Funds calculate net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration all relevant information reasonably available to the Committee. As of April 30, 2013, there were no securities priced using the Fair Value Procedures.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date
Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar investments, fair value of investments for which the Funds have the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near term, and short-term investments valued at amortized cost)
Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments, fair value of investments for which the Funds’ do not have the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near term)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |
April 30, 2013 (Unaudited) |
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.
For the six months ended April 30, 2013, there have been no significant changes to the Funds’ fair valuation methodologies.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS — Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by Citibank, N.A. and are designated as being held on each Fund’s behalf by its custodian under a book-entry system. Each Fund monitors the adequacy of the collateral on a daily basis and can require the seller to provide additional collateral in the event the market value of the securities pledged falls below the carrying value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. It is the Funds’ policy to only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other financial institutions which are deemed by the investment adviser to be creditworthy. The Funds bear the risk of loss in the event that the other party to a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligations and the Funds are prevented from exercising their rights to dispose of the underlying securities received as collateral and the risk of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES – It is each Fund’s intention to qualify or continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income taxes have been made in the financial statements.
The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is "more-likely-than-not" (i.e., greater than 50 percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provisions in the current period. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last three tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
As of and during the six months ended April 30, 2013, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on specific identification. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from the settlement date.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION — The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Statement of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS — The Funds distribute their net investment income on a pro rata basis. Any net realized capital gains are distributed annually. All distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
INVESTMENTS IN REITS — With respect to the Funds, dividend income is recorded based on the income included in distributions received from the (Real Estate Investment Trust “REIT”) investments using published REIT reclassifications including some management estimates when actual amounts are not available. Distributions received in excess of these estimated amounts are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or reclassified to capital gains. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year end, and may differ from the estimated amounts.
CREATION UNITS — The Funds issue and redeem shares (“Shares”) at Net Asset Value (“NAV”) and only in large blocks of Shares, (each block of Shares for a Fund is called a “Creation Unit” or multiples thereof). Purchasers of Creation Units (“Authorized Participants”) at NAV must pay a standard creation transaction fee per transaction. The fee is a single charge and will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an investor on the same day. An Authorized Participant who holds Creation Units and wishes to redeem at NAV would also pay a standard Redemption Fee per transaction to the custodian on the date of such redemption, regardless of the number of Creation Units redeemed that day.

5. TAX INFORMATION
The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to undistributed net investment income (loss), accumulated net realized gain (loss) or paid-in capital, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise.

The tax character of dividends and distributions paid during the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 were as follows:
Global X Funds | | Ordinary Income | | | Long-Term Capital Gain | | | Totals | |
| | | |
Global X SuperDividend ETF | | | | | | | | | | | | |
2012 | | $ | 4,983,491 | | | $ | – | | | $ | 4,983,491 | |

2011 | | | 92,495 | | | | – | | | | 92,495 | |
As of October 31, 2012, the components of tax basis accumulated losses were as follows:
| | Global X Funds | |
| | Global X SuperDividend ETF | | | Global X Canada Preferred ETF | | | Global X Social Media Index ETF | |
Undistributed Ordinary Income | | $ | 1,996,379 | | | $ | 43,809 | | | $ | 98,362 | |
Capital Loss Carryforwards | | | (3,214,361 | ) | | | (192,575 | ) | | | (894,844 | ) |
Unrealized Depreciation on Investments and Foreign Currency | | | (1,315,298 | ) | | | (77,938 | ) | | | (2,343,055 | ) |
Other Temporary Differences | | | 2 | | | | (1 | ) | | | – | |
Total Accumulated Losses | | $ | (2,533,278 | ) | | $ | (226,705 | ) | | $ | (3,139,537 | ) |
For Federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards represent realized losses of the Funds that may be carried forward for a maximum period of eight years and applied against future gains.
Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be used prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, preenactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law. Losses carried forward under these new provisions are as follows:
| | Short-Term | | | Long-Term | | | | |
Global X Funds | | Loss | | | Loss | | | Total | |
Global X SuperDividend ETF | | $ | 2,032,013 | | | $ | 343,770 | | | $ | 2,375,783 | |
Global X Canada Preferred ETF | | | 188,285 | | | | 777 | | | | 189,062 | |
Global X Social Media Index ETF | | | 894,844 | | | | - | | | | 894,844 | |

5. TAX INFORMATION (continued)
The Federal tax cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments held by the Funds at April 30, 2013 were as follows:
Global X Funds | | Federal Tax Cost | | | Aggregated Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | | Aggregated Gross Unrealized Depreciation | | | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | |
Global X SuperDividend ETF | | $ | 612,561,705 | | | $ | 50,402,551 | | | $ | (13,920,157 | ) | | $ | 36,482,394 | |
Global X SuperDividend U.S. ETF | | | 29,516,319 | | | | 1,310,898 | | | | (97,833 | ) | | | 1,213,065 | |
Global X Canada Preferred ETF | | | 14,461,117 | | | | 200,821 | | | | (246,835 | ) | | | (46,014 | ) |
Global X Social Media Index ETF | | | 10,740,747 | | | | 1,118,353 | | | | (1,458,522 | ) | | | (340,169 | ) |
The preceding differences between book and tax cost are primarily due to mark-to-market treatment of passive foreign investment companies and wash sales.
6. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS
The Funds invest in securities of foreign issuers in several countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries.
The securities markets of emerging countries are less liquid and subject to greater price volatility, and have a smaller market capitalization, than the U.S. securities markets. In certain countries, there may be fewer publicly traded securities and the market may be dominated by a few issuers or sectors. Issuers and securities markets in such countries are not subject to as extensive and frequent accounting, financial and other reporting requirements or as comprehensive government regulations as are issuers and securities markets in the U.S. In particular, the assets and profits appearing on the financial statements of emerging country issuers may not reflect their financial position or results of operations in the same manner as financial statements for U.S. issuers. Substantially less information may be publicly available about emerging country issuers than is available about issuers in the United States.
The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Funds accrue and apply such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or capital gains are earned.
The Funds use a replication strategy. A replication strategy is an indexing strategy that involves investing in the securities of the Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Underlying Indices. The Funds may utilize a representative sampling strategy with respect to their Underlying Indices when a replication strategy might be detrimental to their shareholders, such as when there are practical difficulties or substantial costs involved in compiling a portfolio of equity securities to follow its Underlying Index, or, in certain instances, when securities in the Underlying Indices become temporarily illiquid, unavailable or less liquid, or due to legal restrictions (such as diversification requirements that apply to the Funds but not the Underlying Indices).

7. OTHER
At April 30, 2013, the total Shares outstanding that were held by Authorized Participants were as follows. The Authorized Participants have entered into an agreement with the Funds’ Distributor.
| | | | Percentage of | |
| | Authorized | | Shares | |
| | Participants | | Outstanding | |
Global X SuperDividend ETF | | 4 | | | 100 | % |
Global X SuperDividend U.S. ETF | | 5 | | | 100 | % |
Global X Canada Preferred ETF | | 3 | | | 100 | % |
Global X Social Media Index ETF | | 2 | | | 100 | % |
Pursuant to the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trustees of the Trust and the Trust’s officers are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties.
8. LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES
The Funds may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Funds’ total assets. Security loans made pursuant to the securities lending agreement are required at all times to be secured by collateral equal to at least 102% for U.S. based securities and 105% for foreign based securities. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loans were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Funds could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Funds bear the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. As of April 30, 2013, the value of securities on loan was $58,389,487 for the Global X SuperDividend ETF.
9. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The Funds enter into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However the Funds have not had prior gains or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Funds’ existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Funds have evaluated the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events. Based on this evaluation, no additional disclosures or adjustments were required to the financial statements as of the date the financial statements were issued.
Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited) |
All Exchange Traded Funds (“ETF”) have operating expenses. As a shareholder of an ETF, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for ETF management, administrative services, commissions, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns. In addition, a shareholder is responsible for brokerage fees as a result of their investment in the Fund.
Operating expenses such as these are deducted from an ETF’s gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the ETF’s average net assets; this percentage is known as the ETF’s expense ratio.
The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.
You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.
NOTE: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), requires that mutual fund’s board of trustees, including a majority of those trustees who are not "interested persons" of the mutual fund, as defined in the 1940 Act ("Independent Trustees"), to consider on an initial basis and periodically thereafter (as required by the 1940 Act), at an in person meeting called for such purpose, the terms of each fund’s investment advisory agreement and approve each agreement with such changes as the Independent Trustees deem appropriate.
At a quarterly Board meeting held on November 16, 2012, the Board of Trustees (including the Independent Trustees) considered and unanimously approved the continuation of (i) the Investment Advisory Agreement ("Renewal Investment Advisory Agreement") for each Fund covered by this Semi-Annual Report (other than the Global X SuperDividend U.S. ETF) (each a "Renewal Fund") and (ii) the Supervision and Administration Agreement between the Trust ("Renewal Supervision and Administration Agreement"), on behalf of each Renewal Fund, and Global X Management Company ("Global X Management"). The Renewal Investment Advisory Agreement and the Renewal Supervision and Administration Agreement are referred to herein as the "Renewal Agreements." At the same meeting, the Board (including the Independent Trustees) also initially considered and unanimously approved (i) the initial Investment Advisory Agreement for the Global X SuperDividend U.S. ETF (“New Fund”) and (ii) the Supervision and Administration Agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the New Fund, and Global X Management. The Investment Advisory Agreements and Supervision and Administration Agreements for the New Fund are referred to herein as the “New Fund Agreements.”
In advance of the Board meeting, the Board (including the Independent Trustees) requested (in writing) detailed information from Global X Management in connection with their consideration of the Renewal Agreements and the New Fund Agreements and received and reviewed written responses from Global X Management and supporting materials relating to those requests for information.
In determining to initially approve the New Fund Agreements for the New Fund and to approve the continuation of the Renewal Agreements for each Renewal Fund (as applicable), the Board concluded that the New Fund Agreements and the Renewal Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interests of the New Fund or each Renewal Fund (as applicable) and its shareholders, respectively. In approving the New Fund Agreements and the continuation of the Renewal Agreements for the New Fund or each Renewal Fund (as applicable), the Board considered among other things the following categories of material factors. In addition, the Board based their determinations regarding the continuation of each of the Renewal Fund Agreements on their consideration of all of the materials provided to them by Global X Management and each Renewal Fund’s other service providers throughout the year.
In reaching this decision, the Board did not assign relative weights to the factors discussed below nor did the Board deem any one factor or group of them to be controlling in and of themselves. Certain factors considered by the Board (including the Independent Trustees) with respect to the initial approval of the New Fund Agreements and their approval of the continuation of the Renewal Agreements are discussed separately below.
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
NEW FUND AGREEMENTS
Nature, extent and quality of services
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the terms of the New Fund Agreements and the range of services to be provided to the New Fund in accordance with the New Fund Agreements; |
| • | Global X Management’s key personnel and the portfolio managers who would provide investment advisory services to the New Fund; |
| • | Global X Management’s responsibilities under the New Fund Agreements to, among other things, (i) manage the investment operations of the New Fund and the composition of the New Fund’s assets, including the purchase, retention and disposition of its holdings, (ii) provide quarterly reports to the Trust’s officers and Board and other reports as the Board deems necessary or appropriate, (iii) vote proxies, exercise consents, and exercise all other rights appertaining to securities and assets held by the New Fund, (iv) select broker-dealers to execute portfolio transactions for the New Fund when necessary, (v) assist in the preparation and filing of reports and proxy statements (if any) to the shareholders of the New Fund, the periodic updating of the registration statement, prospectuses, statement of additional information, and other reports and documents for the New Fund that are required to be filed by the Trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and other regulatory or governmental bodies, and (vi) monitor anticipated purchases and redemptions of the shares (including creation units) of the New Fund by shareholders and new investors; |
| • | the nature, extent and quality of Global X Management’s services (including advisory, administrative and compliance services) provided by or made available to each of the Renewal Funds and that would be made available to the New Fund; and |
| • | the quality of Global X Management’s resources and personnel that would be made available to the New Fund, including Global X Management’s experience and the professional qualifications of Global X Management’s key personnel. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the New Fund.
Performance
The Board determined that because the New Fund had not commenced operations, meaningful data relating to investment performance of the New Fund was not available and, therefore, could not be a factor in approving the New Fund Agreements.
Cost of Services and Profitability
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | Global X Management’s expected cost to provide investment management, supervision and administrative and related services to the New Fund; |
| • | The unitary fee (including the proposed investment advisory fee) ("Management Fee") that was proposed to be borne by the New Fund under the New Fund Agreements for the investment advisory, supervisory and administrative services that the New Fund requires |
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
under a unitary fee structure (including the types of fees and expenses that are not included within the unitary fee and would be borne by the New Fund); and
| • | the expected profitability to Global X Management, if any, from all services to be provided to the New Fund and all aspects of the relationship between Global X Management and the New Fund. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the profits anticipated to be realized by Global X Management from its relationship with the New Fund would not be excessive.
Comparison of Fees and Services
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | comparative information with respect to the proposed Management Fee to be paid to Global X Management by the New Fund. In connection with this consideration, Global X Management provided the Board with comparative expense data for the New Fund, including fees and expenses paid by unaffiliated comparable specialized and/or focused exchange-traded funds and other registered funds as well as the fees and expenses paid by other Funds that are series of the Trust under the same unified Management Fee structure; |
| • | the structure of the proposed unified Management Fee structure (which includes as one component the proposed investment advisory fee for the New Fund) and the expected total expense ratios for the New Fund. In this regard, the Board took into consideration that the purpose of adopting a unitary Management Fee structure for the New Fund was to create a simple, all-inclusive fee that would provide a level of predictability with respect to the overall expense ratio (i.e., the total fees) of the New Fund and that the proposed Management Fee for the New Fund was set at a competitive fee to make the New Fund viable in the marketplace; and |
| • | that Global X Management would be responsible for most ordinary expenses of the New Funds, including the costs of various third-party services required by the New Fund, including investment advisory, administrative, audit, certain custody, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs, but that the New Fund would bear other expenses not covered under the proposed all-inclusive Management Fee, such as such as taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and other transaction expenses, interest expenses, and extraordinary expenses. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the proposed Management Fee and expected total expense ratio of the New Fund should not preclude approval of the New Fund Agreements.
Economies of Scale
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the New Fund grows and whether the proposed unitary Management Fee for the New Fund reflected these economies of scale; |
| • | the significant investment of time, personnel and other resources that Global X Management intends to make in the New Fund in order to seek to assure that the New Fund is attractive to investors; and |
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
| • | that the proposed unitary Management Fee would provide a high level of certainty as to the total level of expenses for the New Fund and its shareholders. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that approval of the proposed Management Fee for the New Fund was reasonable.
Other Benefits
In considering the New Fund Agreement, in addition to the categories discussed above, the Board considered other benefits that may be realized by Global X Management as a result of its relationships with the New Fund.
Renewal Agreements
Nature, extent and quality of services
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the terms of the Renewal Agreements and the range of services that would continue to be provided to each Renewal Fund in accordance with the Renewal Agreements; |
| • | Global X Management’s key personnel and the portfolio managers who would continue to provide investment advisory, supervision and administrative services to each Renewal Fund. In connection with these considerations, the Board noted that Global X Management had significantly increased its support staff and operational resources since the inception of each Renewal Fund; |
| • | Global X Management’s responsibilities under the Renewal Agreements, among other things, to: (i) manage the investment operations of each Renewal Fund and the composition of each Renewal Fund’s assets, including the purchase, retention and disposition of its holdings, (ii) provide quarterly reports to the Trust’s officers and Board and other reports as the Board deems necessary or appropriate, (iii) vote proxies, exercise consents, and exercise all other rights relating to securities and assets held by each Renewal Fund, (iv) select broker- dealers to execute portfolio transactions for each Renewal Fund when necessary, (v) assist in the preparation and filing of reports and proxy statements (if any) to the shareholders of each Renewal Fund, the periodic updating of the registration statement, prospectuses, statement of additional information, and other reports and documents for each Renewal Fund that are required to be filed by the Trust with the SEC and other regulatory and governmental bodies, and (vi) monitor anticipated purchases and redemptions of the shares (including creation units) of each Renewal Fund by shareholders and new investors; |
| • | the nature, extent and quality of all of the services (including advisory, administrative and compliance services) that have been provided by Global X Management or made available to each Renewal Fund and the adequacy of Global X Management’s personnel resources that would continue to be made available to each Renewal Fund; and |
| • | Global X Management’s experience and the professional qualifications of Global X Management’s key personnel. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Renewal Funds by Global X Management.
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
Performance
With respect to this fact, the Board considered each Renewal Fund’s total return and investment performance relative to (i) the performance of unaffiliated comparable specialized and/or focused exchange-traded funds and other registered funds in the same classification as each of the Renewal Funds, which performance information is publicly available from such registered funds as well as other third party sources; and (ii) the performance of comparable registered funds and pertinent indexes.
Based on these considerations and comparisons, the Board concluded that the investment performance of each operational Renewal Fund did not adversely affect the Board approval of the continuance of the Renewal Agreements.
Cost of Services and Profitability
The Board considered Global X Management’s cost to provide investment management and related services to each Renewal Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the Management Fee that has been borne by each Renewal Fund under the Renewal Agreements for the various investment advisory, supervisory and administrative services that each Renewal Fund requires under a unitary fee structure (including the types of fees and expenses that are not included within the unitary fee and would be borne by each Renewal Fund).
In addition, the Board considered the current and expected profitability to Global X Management from all services provided to the Renewal Funds and all aspects of Global X Management’s relationship with each of the Renewal Funds. Global X Management discussed with the Board its current and expected profitability with respect to each of the Renewal Funds with respect to which Global X Management generates or is expected to generate a profit. In addition, Global X Management noted that it was unlikely that it would generate profits in the upcoming year from its services to certain of the smaller Renewal Funds because of the small amount of assets under management and the required payment of certain fixed fees and expenses for each of the Renewal Funds.
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the profits anticipated to be realized by Global X Management from its relationship with each of the Renewal Funds would not be excessive and should not preclude approval of the continuance of each Renewal Agreement.
Comparison of Fees and Services
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | comparative information with respect to the Management Fee paid to Global X Management by each of the Renewal Funds. In connection with this consideration, Global X Management provided the Board with detailed comparative expense data for each of the Renewal Funds, including fees and expenses paid by unaffiliated comparable specialized and/or focused exchange-traded funds and other comparable registered funds and fees and expenses paid by other funds that are series of the Trust under the same unified Management Fee structure; |
| • | the structure of the unified Management Fee structure (which includes as one component the investment advisory fee for each Renewal Fund) and the current total expense ratios for each of the Renewal Funds. In this regard, the Board took into |
Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) |
|
consideration that the purpose of adopting a unitary Management Fee structure for the Renewal Funds was to create a simple, all-inclusive fee that would provide a level of predictability with respect to the overall expense ratio (i.e., the total fees) of each of the Renewal Funds and that the proposed Management Fee for each Renewal Fund was set at a competitive fee to make each Renewal Fund viable in the marketplace;
| • | that Global X Management is responsible for most ordinary expenses of the Renewal Funds, including the costs of various third-party services required by the Renewal Funds, including investment advisory, administrative, audit, certain custody, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs, but that each Renewal Fund would bear other expenses not covered under the proposed all-inclusive Management Fee, such as taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and other transaction expenses, interest expenses, and extraordinary expenses; and |
| • | that Global X Management has contractually agreed pursuant to an expense limitation with respect to a Renewal Fund to waive fees payable to Global X Management and/or limit fees and operating expenses to the extent necessary to assure that the total annual operating expenses (exclusive of taxes, brokerage fees, commissions and other transaction expenses, interest and extraordinary expenses) of the relevant Renewal Fund will not exceed a specified annual rate until a certain date and that Global X Management intends these arrangements to benefit shareholders of the relevant Renewal Fund by limiting the maximum level of expenses that can be incurred that are not part of the unified Management Fee. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the proposed Management Fee and total expense ratio of each Renewal Fund should not preclude approval of the Renewal Agreements.
Economies of Scale
With respect to this factor, the Board considered:
| • | the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Renewal Funds grow and whether the proposed unitary Management Fee for each Renewal Fund reflected these economies of scale; |
| • | the significant investment of time, personnel and other resources that Global X Management has made and intends to make in the Renewal Funds in order to seek to assure that the Renewal Funds are attractive to investors; and |
| • | that the proposed unitary Management Fee would provide a high level of certainty as to the total level of expenses for the Renewal Funds and their shareholders. |
Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that continuation of the unitary Management Fee for each Renewal Fund was reasonable.
Other Benefits
The Board considered any other benefits realized by Global X Management as a result from its relations relationships with each Renewal Fund and concluded that all information it considered supported approval of the continuation of the Renewal Agreements.
Supplemental Information (unaudited) |
|
Net asset value, or “NAV”, is the price per Share at which the Funds issue and redeem Shares. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The “Market Price” of the Funds generally is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the Shares of the Funds are listed for trading, as of the time that the Funds’ NAV is calculated. The Funds’ Market Price may be at, above or below their NAV. The NAV of the Funds will fluctuate with changes in the market value of their Funds’ holdings. The Market Price of the Funds will fluctuate in accordance with changes in its NAV, as well as market supply and demand.
Premiums or discounts are the differences (expressed as a percentage) between the NAV and Market Price of the Funds on a given day, generally at the time NAV is calculated. A premium is the amount that the Funds are trading above the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV. A discount is the amount that the Funds are trading below the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV.
Further information regarding premiums and discounts is available on the Funds’ website at GlobalXFunds.com
