NYSE ARCA TECH 100 ETF

NOTES TO SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS
JANUARY 31, 2008

(Unaudited)

1. Organization

The Ziegler Exchange Traded Trust, a diversified, open-end management investment company (the “Trust”), was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 13, 2005. The Trust currently consists of one portfolio, the NYSE Arca Tech 100 ETF (the “ETF”), which commenced operations on March 26, 2007. The ETF is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond to the performance of the NYSE Arca Tech 100 Index SM (the “Index”).

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the ETF in preparation of its schedule of investments. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of schedule of investments in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. The actual results could differ from those estimates.

Security Valuation

The ETF values its portfolio securities at their market value when market quotations are readily available. When market quotations are not readily available for a particular security (e.g., because there is no regular market quotation for such security, the market for such security is limited, the exchange or market in which such security trades does not open for an entire trading day, the validity of quotations is questionable or some significant event occurs after the close of trading of such security and before such security is valued), the ETF values such security at its “fair value” as determined in good faith by the ETF’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Board has delegated responsibility for daily pricing to Ziegler Capital Management, LLC (the “Advisor”). The Advisor has appointed a Valuation Committee to perform such pricing functions in accordance with pricing policies and procedures adopted by the ETF’s Board. The Valuation Committee’s fair value determinations are reviewed regularly by the Board.

Equity securities that are traded on U.S. exchanges, including futures contracts and options, and for which market quotations are readily available are valued at their last sale price on the principal exchange on which such securities are traded as of the close of regular trading on such exchange or, lacking any sales, at the latest bid quotation. Over-the-counter securities for which a last sales price on the valuation date and at the valuation time is available are valued at that price. All other over-the-counter securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the latest bid quotation.

Because market quotations for most debt and convertible securities are not readily available, such securities are generally valued using valuations published by an independent pricing service. Preferred stock and options for which market quotations are not readily available are valued using an independent pricing service. The pricing service uses various valuation methodologies such as matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. Debt securities purchased with maturities of 60 days or less are valued on an amortized cost basis, under which the value of such securities is equal to its acquisition cost, plus or minus any amortized discount or premium. Investments in mutual funds are valued at their closing net asset value each business day.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is evaluating the application of the SFAS 157 and has not at this time determined the impact, if any, resulting from the adoption on the ETF’s financial statement disclosures.

In addition, in February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 159 permits entities to elect to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument, is irrevocable and is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. Management continues to evaluate the impact the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the ETF’s financial statement disclosures.


Item 2. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures . The Registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officers have concluded, based on their evaluation of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 30a—3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this report, that the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant on Form N-Q is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in the reports that it files or submits on Form N-Q is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting . There were no changes in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a—3(d) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) that occurred during the Registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
