PREAMBLE

Our clients' interests come first. We must avoid even the appearance of impropriety. We must not take inappropriate advantage of our positions and access to information.

All persons must comply with applicable federal and state securities laws, as well as the rules of applicable self-regulatory organizations such as the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

The board of directors of Saturna Capital Corporation, acting for itself and its subsidiaries, and the board of trustees of both Saturna Investment Trust and Amana Mutual Funds Trust adopted this Code of Ethics to assist in maintaining the highest standards of conduct. Saturna Capital and its affiliates encourage private investment activities, but such activities must be carried out within the letter and spirit of this Code. These boards must approve any material change to this Code of Ethics. Questions should be brought to the attention of the Chief Compliance Officer.

By accepting employment with the Adviser and its subsidiaries, or association with a Fund, you have agreed to be bound by this Code. This Code is a part of the Saturna Manual, which governs the operations of Saturna Capital and its affiliates. Each employee annually certifies in writing his understanding of and intention to comply with this Code. Fund trustees must annually disclose various prescribed details.

The terms of Rule 16a are incorporated herein by reference and shall control any determination hereunder.
  
  In general, and without limiting the foregoing, a person has Beneficial Ownership in any securities held

  (i) by members of a person's immediate family sharing the same household; provided, however, that the presumption of such Beneficial Ownership may be rebutted; or

  (ii) by related partnerships, trusts, corporations or other arrangements.

• "Control" means the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company, unless such power is solely the result of an official position with such company. There is a presumption of control on the part of any person who owns beneficially 25% of the voting securities of the company.


• "Disinterested Trustee" means a trustee of a Fund who is not an Interested Person of the Fund. Only for purposes of this Code, Disinterested Trustee shall include a trustee of a Fund who, though an Interested Person of the Adviser by virtue being solely a consultant to a Fund, is not an employee, officer or director of the Adviser.

  Provided that no person, or member of his immediate family, shall be deemed to be an Interested Person of a Fund solely because of his being a member of its board of trustees or advisory board or an owner of its securities.
  
  Solely for the purpose of defining Interested Person "member of the immediate family" means any parent, spouse of a parent, child, spouse of a child, spouse, brother, or sister, and includes step and adoptive relationships.

• "Purchase or sale of a security" includes, among other things, the purchase or sale of a derivative (such as an option or future) to purchase or sell a security.

SECTION 3 – PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS

After applying the transaction exemptions of Section 2 of this Code:

(a) Pre-Clearance Required. No Access Person shall purchase or sell, directly or indirectly, any security in which he has, or because of such transaction acquires, any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership without first obtaining the permission of the Chief Compliance Officer, who shall make reasonable inquiry as to the trading or proposed trading or pending purchase or sale orders by clients of the Adviser in such security. The Adviser will maintain records of the approval of, and rationale supporting, the acquisition of investments in IPO's and private placements for at least five years after the end of the fiscal year in which the approval is granted.

(b) Conflicting Trades. No Access Person shall purchase or sell, directly or indirectly, any security in which he has, or because of such transaction acquires, any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership, if the person knows at the time of the transaction that the security

(1) is being considered, or within five calendar days preceding the proposed transaction has been considered, for purchase or sale by any client; or

(2) is being purchased or sold by any client, or was purchased or sold by a client within the five calendar days preceding the Access Person's transactions; or

(3) is designated by the Adviser as a "Recommended Security" for consideration of client purchase or sale. However, an Access Person may participate as part of a "bunch" order with clients simultaneously purchasing or selling a security. The Adviser must determine that, for each transaction, bundling is consistent with best execution and no client is favored. In appropriate cases the Chief Compliance Officer may waive such prohibition in his discretion if all client trades have been cleared or executed.

(c) Initial Public Offerings. No Access Person may purchase, directly or indirectly, any security in which he has or because of such transaction acquires, any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership and which to his actual knowledge at the time of such purchase or sale, is the subject of an initial public offering. An initial public offering means an offering of securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, the issuer of which, immediately before the registration, was not subject to the reporting requirements of Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(d) Private Placements. No Access Person may purchase, directly or indirectly, any security in which he has or because of such transaction acquires, any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership, if such transaction is not in the open market, or if such transaction is made pursuant to any exemption from the registration provisions of the federal securities laws unless such transaction has been approved in advance by the Chief Compliance Officer.

    Provided, that in determining whether to grant permission for such private placement, the Chief Compliance Officer shall consider, among other things, whether such offering should be reserved for a Fund or other client of the Adviser, and whether such transaction is being offered to the person because of his or her position with the Adviser.

    Provided further, that any such person who has received such permission shall be required to disclose such an investment when participating in any subsequent consideration of such security for purchase or sale by clients of the Adviser, and that the decision to purchase or sell such security should be made by persons with no personal direct or indirect interest in the security.

(e) Principal Transactions. No Access Person nor the Adviser may effect a transaction as principal with a client.

(f) Short-swing trades. No Access Person may purchase then sell, or sell then repurchase, any security within 10 calendar days. The Chief Compliance Officer may, for good cause shown, permit a short-swing trade, but shall record the reasons and grant of permission with the records of the Code.

SECTION 4 – PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES

(a) Gifts and Gratuities.

(1) Limit on Gifts: No Access Person, whether directly or indirectly, shall give or receive a Gift in excess of $100 per year to or from any person associated in any capacity with another firm. All Gifts must be reported to the Chief Compliance Officer within 30 days of receipt.

(3) Payment or Reimbursement of Expenses: Payments of an Access Person's or trustee's ("Attendee") expenses in connection with meetings held by an offeror or by a securities brokerage firm, for the purpose of training or education of the Attendee may be received, provided that:

• The Attendee keeps, including all compensation received, the name of the offeror or brokerage firm, the amount of cash received, and the nature and, if known, value of any non-cash compensation;


• The Attendee obtains the President's or Chief Compliance Officer's prior approval to attend the meeting;


• The location is appropriate to the purpose of the meeting, which shall mean an office of the offeror or the brokerage firm, or a facility located in the vicinity of such office, or a regional location with respect to regional meetings;


• The payment or reimbursement is not applied to the expenses of guests of the Attendee; and


• The payment or reimbursement by the offeror or brokerage firm is not subject to any conditions. The limits of this paragraph shall not apply to any expenses incurred by any Fund or trustee which are paid by the Adviser in connection with any meeting, conference, education or other activity of any kind related to business of a Fund.

(b) Directorships. No Access Person shall serve as director of any publicly traded company without first obtaining approval of the President. Any such approval shall be based on a determination by the President that such board service will be consistent with the interests of the clients of the Adviser, and that such person serving as a director will be isolated from those making investment decisions with respect to such company by appropriate procedures. At the direction of the President, in his or her sole discretion, such person may be required to resign from such directorship.

(c) Brokerage accounts. No Access Persons may, directly or indirectly, have an interest in any brokerage or trading account outside of the Reporting Account. Access Persons shall arrange to transfer outside accounts to a Reporting Account upon employment.

(1) The President may permit, in unusual circumstances and for good cause, an Access Person to maintain an account other than the approved brokerage Reporting Account.

(2) If an Access Person is permitted to maintain an account not with Saturna Brokerage Services, then the Access Person

(a) must have no advance knowledge or control of any transaction in such account, and

(b) shall be responsible for maintaining on a mirroring Reporting Account an accurate history of all security transactions that are required to be reported under this Code, and

(c) shall instruct the manager or custodian with which such account is maintained to send copies of security transaction confirmations and periodic statements directly to the Chief Compliance Officer.

(d) Short Sales and Derivatives.

(1) No Access Person may sell short any security on the Adviser's Recommended List. Portfolio managers may not conduct short sales of any security.

(2) No Access Person may purchase any derivative or other security in combination with any other derivatives or securities from which the Access Person would, directly or indirectly, benefit from a price decline in any stock on the Recommended List.

(e) Waivers. The Chief Compliance Officer, in unusual circumstances and for good cause shown, may recommend to an ad hoc committee consisting of the Chief Compliance Officer plus one other director of Saturna, the waiver of any of the prohibitions in Section 3 and Section 4 as to any particular set of circumstances, and such prohibition may be waived in such limited circumstances by such ad hoc committee. A copy of the minutes of their deliberations shall be maintained with the records regarding enforcement of this Code of Ethics.

Investments defined in Section 1 as not being a Security and in non-Saturna investment funds (such as mutual funds) do not need to be held, reported or traded with Saturna Brokerage Services. Transactions in Saturna Funds are automatically reported via the Saturna transfer agent system.

(2) Reporting Accounts are marked as "employee" registrations to facilitate monitoring.

The Adviser will provide each Access Person with a list of the Reporting Accounts identified as relating to that person.

(2) At their first regular meeting in each calendar year, the Fund boards must be provided and review an annual report from the Adviser on compliance for the previous year. The Boards must receive a certification that the Fund and the Adviser "have adopted procedures reasonably necessary to prevent Access Persons from violating" their codes (a) before approving this Code of Ethics and (b) "not less frequently than annually" thereafter. The annual report to the Fund boards must describe any issues and material violations arising under this Code since the last report.

(e) Certification.

(1) No later than 10 days after becoming an Access Person, each Access Person shall meet with the Chief Compliance Officer to discuss the requirements of this Code. For the date the person became an Access Person, the Access Person shall deliver a record of all Securities (including name and quantity) in which the Access Person has a direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership, including the name of any broker, dealer or bank with whom the Access Person maintained an account.

(2) At the end of the first month of employment, the Access Person shall demonstrate that he has completed the process of closing all outside accounts and moving all holdings to the approved brokerage firm. The Chief Compliance Officer will provide appropriate guidance and assistance to the Access Person if needed to complete the process.

(3) In conjunction with the Adviser's annual employee compliance meeting (normally held in August), and more frequently if instructed by the Chief Compliance Officer, all Adviser personnel shall certify (a) the accuracy of the inventory of their Reporting Account securities holdings, and (b) to their knowledge of and compliance with this Code of Ethics.
