Boston, MA, May 2, 2007 - KLD Research & Analytics, Inc., together with Fixed Income Securities, L.P (FIS), today announced that it has licensed the KLD Global Climate 100SM Index (GC100), the world's first global index focused on the climate solutions value chain, for a unit investment trust. The trust, which deposited on April 24, 2007, is the first investment product based on the GC100 Index available to U.S. investors.

FIS, acting through its Advisors Asset Management (AAM) division, is sponsoring the UIT, called the KLD Global Climate 100 Index Portfolio, Series 1 (ADT 127). The trust will seek to provide above average total return primarily through capital appreciation by investing in a portfolio of the stocks included in the GC100 Index.

"Our clients have been asking us to bring a product to market that has the potential to benefit from society's desire to limit its impact on the planet," said Mike Boyle, Senior Vice President of Advisors Asset Management. "Until now we have been unable to find a solution that was adequately researched and diversified. We believe that a trust based on the KLD Global Climate 100 Index should be a compelling investment option."

"While the companies in the GC100 Index alone won't solve global warming, the Index focuses investors' attention on where the possibilities lie," said Peter Kinder, president of KLD. "Increasingly, institutional and individual investors recognize that climate change is an investment issue - not just an environmental issue."

The GC100 Index is based on the concept of the "climate solutions value chain." Companies in the climate solutions value chain are positioned to benefit from increasing constraints on carbon, high fossil-fuel prices, rising energy demand, and a growing acknowledgement of climate risk.

The Index is a basket of companies that provides exposure to global companies providing climate solutions. The GC100 Index seeks to include companies representing a range of corporate responses to climate change, including a group of large-, mid-, and small-cap companies from sectors ranging from energy and utilities to industrials and consumer products.

The Index provides a diversified solution to climate change by capturing leading firms engaged in supply, demand or enabling of renewable energy, future fuels, and clean technology and efficiency.

The KLD Global Climate 100 Index was created in response to the growing demand from institutions and individuals for investment strategies that address the risks and opportunities associated with global warming. Initially developed in partnership with GENI, the Global Energy Network Institute, KLD launched the GC100 Index on July 1, 2005. Since inception through March 31, 2007, the GC100 Index has produced a 42.4% cumulative total return, with a standard deviation of 12.41 and a Sharpe Ratio of 1.45. As of March 2007, GC100 Index constituents represent 15 countries, nine sectors and over $2.3 trillion in market capitalization.
