NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

I.  APPOINTMENT OF SUBADVISER; COMPENSATION

1.1  Appointment as Subadviser.  Subject to and in accordance with the provisions hereof, Manager hereby appoints Subadviser as investment subadviser to perform the various investment advisory and other services to the Fund set forth herein and, subject to the restrictions set forth herein, hereby delegates to Subadviser the authority vested in Manager pursuant to the Management Contract to the extent necessary to enable Subadviser to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

1.2  Scope of Investment Authority.  (a)  The Subadviser is hereby authorized, on a discretionary basis, to manage the investments and determine the composition of the assets of the Fund, subject at all times to (i) the supervision and control of the Trustees, (ii) the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) and the rules thereunder, (iii) the investment objective, policies and limitations, as provided in the Fund’s Prospectus and other governing documents, and (iv) such instructions, policies and limitations relating to the Fund and/or the performance of oversight of the Subadviser’s duties hereunder as the Trustees or Manager may from time to time adopt and communicate in writing to Subadviser.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Subadviser is not authorized to take any action, including the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, in contravention of any restriction, limitation, objective, policy or instruction described in the previous sentence.

(b)  It is understood and agreed that, for so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect, Subadviser shall retain discretionary investment authority over the manner in which the Fund’s assets are invested, and Manager shall not have the right to overrule any investment decision with respect to a particular security made by Subadviser, provided that the Trustees and Manager shall at all times have the right to monitor the Fund’s investment activities and performance, require Subadviser to make reports and give explanations as to the manner in which the Fund’s assets are being invested, and, should either Manager or the Trustees become dissatisfied with Subadviser’s performance in any way, terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.2 hereof.

1.3  Appointment as Proxy Voting Agent.  Subject to and in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Trustees hereby appoint Subadviser as the Fund’s proxy voting agent, and hereby delegate to Subadviser discretionary authority to vote all proxies solicited by or with respect to issuers of securities in which the assets of the Fund may be invested from time to time.  Subadviser may act as the Fund’s proxy voting agent directly or Subadviser may (in whole or in part) employ a third-party to vote proxies on behalf of the Fund, provided, however, that in either case, Subadviser shall be responsible for voting all proxies on behalf of the Fund.  Upon sixty (60) days written notice to Subadviser, the Trustees may at any time withdraw the authority granted to Subadviser pursuant to this Section 1.3 to perform any or all of the proxy voting services contemplated hereby.

1.4  Governing Documents.  Manager will provide Subadviser with copies of (i) the Trust’s Declaration of Trust and By-laws, as currently in effect, (ii) the Fund’s currently effective prospectus and statement of additional information, as set forth in the Trust’s registration statement under the Investment Company Act and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (iii) any instructions, investment policies or other restrictions adopted by the Trustees or Manager relating to its performance of oversight of the Subadviser supplemental thereto, and (iv) the Management Contract.  Manager will provide Subadviser with such further documentation and information concerning the investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund as Subadviser may from time to time reasonably request.

1.5  Subadviser’s Relationship.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Subadviser shall be an independent contractor and will have no authority to act for or represent the Trust, the Fund or Manager in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of any of them, except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or in writing by the Trust or Manager.

1.6  Compensation.  Subadviser shall be compensated for the services it performs on behalf of the Fund in accordance with the terms set forth in Appendix A to this Agreement.

II.  SERVICES TO BE PERFORMED BY SUBADVISER

2.1  Investment Advisory Services.  (a)  In fulfilling its obligations to manage the assets of the Fund, Subadviser will:

(i)  formulate and implement a continuous investment program for the Fund;

(ii)  employ portfolio managers to make investment decisions;

(iii)  to the extent reasonably requested by the Manager or officers of the Fund, cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the Manager and the Trust's other service providers by (1) keeping them fully informed as to such matters that they may reasonably deem necessary with respect to the performance of their obligations to the Fund, (2) providing prompt responses to reasonable requests for information or assistance, and (3) establishing appropriate processes to promote the efficient exchange of information;

(iv)  take whatever steps are necessary to implement these investment programs by the purchase and sale of securities and other investments, including the selection of brokers or dealers, the placing of orders for such purchases and sales in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) below and assuring that such purchases and sales are properly settled and cleared;

(v)  provide such reports with respect to the implementation of the Fund’s investment program as the Trustees or Manager shall reasonably request; and

(vi)  provide advice and assistance to Manager as to the determination of the fair value of certain securities where market quotations are not readily available for purposes of calculating net asset value of the Fund in accordance with valuation procedures and methods established by the Trustees.

(b)  The Subadviser shall place all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities for the Fund’s account with brokers and dealers selected by Subadviser.  Such brokers and dealers may include brokers or dealers that are “affiliated persons” (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act) of the Trust, the Fund, Manager or Subadviser, provided that Subadviser shall only place orders on behalf of the Fund with such affiliated persons in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees pursuant to Rule 17e-1 under the Investment Company Act.  The Subadviser shall use its best efforts to seek to execute portfolio transactions at prices which are advantageous to the Fund and at commission rates which are reasonable in relation to the benefits received.  In selecting brokers or dealers qualified to execute a particular transaction, brokers or dealers may be selected who also provide brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) to the Fund and/or other accounts over which Subadviser or its affiliates exercise investment discretion.  The Subadviser is authorized to pay a broker or dealer who provided such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for the Fund which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if Subadviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer.  This determination may be viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities which the Subadviser and its affiliates have in respect to accounts over which they exercise investment discretion.  The Trustees shall periodically review the commissions paid by the Fund to determine if the commissions paid over representative periods were reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Fund.

The Subadviser further agrees that, in performing its duties hereunder, it will:

 (c) comply in all material respects with the applicable sections of (1) the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act and all rules and regulations thereunder and any other applicable federal and state laws and regulations, (2) the Subadviser's compliance policies and procedures, (3) the rules and regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, (4) the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"), (5) the investment objectives, strategies, policies, limitations and restrictions of the Fund as described in the Registration Statement, (6) the Trust's Trust Instrument and By-Laws or other organizational documents of the Trust, and (7) any written instructions of the Manager or the Board;

(d) comply with Fidelity's SEC exemptive order to operate passively managed ETFs solely to the extent applicable to Subadviser as expressly set forth therein with respect to the services provided by Subadviser under this Agreement; provided that Subadviser will not have any responsibilities to comply with such exemptive order with respect to any of the Adviser's obligations therein not expressly delegated to the Subadviser thereunder or hereunder, including any of Adviser's obligations set forth in Appendix B hereto;

(e) manage the assets of the Fund to comply with the following requirements of the Code and regulations issued thereunder: section 851(b)(2) and section 851(b)(3) (and, if applicable, section 817(h)) according to Subadviser's books and records;

(f) make available to the Board, the Manager, the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO") and the Trust's administrator, promptly upon their request, such copies of its records with respect to the Fund as may be required to assist in their compliance with applicable laws and regulations. As reasonably requested by the Board or the Adviser, the Subadviser will complete periodic or special questionnaires and furnish to the Board and/or the Manager such periodic and special reports regarding the Fund and the Subadviser including, but not limited to, reports concerning transactions and performance of the Fund, quarterly and annual compliance reports and certifications, reports or certifications regarding compliance with the Trust's procedures pursuant to Rules 17e-1, 17a-7, 10f-3 and 12d3-1 under the 1940 Act (as applicable), quarterly reports identifying material compliance matters and any material changes to the Subadviser's compliance program (including revisions to compliance policies and procedures), fundamental investment restrictions, liquidity determinations for securities or other instruments held by the Fund, compliance with the Subadviser's Code of Ethics, and such other procedures or requirements that the Adviser may reasonably request from time to time;

(g) make available to the Board and the Adviser at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice its portfolio managers and other appropriate personnel as mutually agreed by the Adviser and Subadviser, either in person or, at the mutual convenience of the Board, the Adviser and the Subadviser, by telephone or other electronic media, in order to review the investment policies, performance and other matters relating to the management of the Fund;

(h) review draft reports to shareholders, registration statements or portions thereof that relate to the Fund or the Subadviser and other documents provided to the Subadviser by the Adviser, provide comments on such drafts on a timely basis, and provide certifications or sub-certifications on a timely basis as to the accuracy of the information contained in such reports or other documents;

(i) use no material, non-public information concerning portfolio companies that may be in its possession or the possession of any of its affiliates, nor will the Subadviser seek to obtain any such information, in providing investment advice or investment management services to the Fund;

(j) promptly notify the Adviser in the event that the Subadviser or any of its affiliates becomes aware that the Subadviser: (i) is subject to a statutory disqualification that prevents the Subadviser from serving as investment adviser pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) fails to be registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act or under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Subadviser is required to be registered as an investment adviser in order to perform its obligations under this Agreement; (iii) is the subject of an administrative proceeding or enforcement action by the SEC or other regulatory authority, which could have a material effect on the Subadviser's reputation or ability to manage the Fund’s portfolios; (iv) is served or otherwise receives notice of any action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at law or in equity, before or by any court, public board or body, or governmental authority, involving the affairs of the Trust or the Adviser or their affiliates; or (v) is involved in any litigation or administrative proceeding brought against the Subadviser or any of its management persons  (as described in Rule 204-3(b)(4) under the Advisers Act), which could have a material effect on the Subadviser's ability to manage the Fund’s portfolios. The Subadviser further agrees to notify the Adviser promptly of any material fact known to the Subadviser respecting or relating to the Subadviser that is not contained in the Trust's Registration Statement, as amended and supplemented from time to time, regarding the Fund, or any amendment or supplement thereto, but that is required to be disclosed therein, and of any statement contained therein that becomes untrue in any material respect. The Subadviser will promptly notify the Adviser if its president or any member of the portfolio management team named in the Registration Statement for the Fund changes, or if there is an actual change in control or management of the Subadviser within the meaning of Rules 2a-6 and 202(a)(1)-1 under the 1940 Act and Advisers Act, respectively;

(k) not disclose information regarding the Fund or the Fund’s characteristics, trading history, portfolio holdings, performance information or any other related information to any third-party, except in compliance with the Trust's policies on disclosure of portfolio holdings;

(l) provide the Adviser, the Trust or the Board with such information and assurances (including certifications and sub-certifications) as the Adviser, the Trust or the Board may reasonably request from time to time in order to assist the Adviser, the Trust or the Board in complying with applicable laws, rules and regulations, including requirements in connection with the preparation and/or filing of the Fund’s Form N-CSRs and Form N-Qs;

(m) not consult with any other investment subadviser of the Trust (if any), or with the subadviser to any other investment company (or separate series thereof) managed by the Adviser concerning the Fund's transactions in securities or other assets, except for purposes of complying with the conditions of Rule 12d3-1(a) and (b) under the 1940 Act or any other applicable law, and, to the extent that multiple subadvisers may be engaged to provide services to the Fund, the Subadviser shall be responsible for providing investment advisory services only with respect to the Fund allocated to the Subadviser by the Adviser; and

2.2.  Administrative and Other Services.  (a)  Subadviser will, at its expense, furnish (i) all necessary investment and management facilities, including salaries of personnel required for it to execute its duties faithfully, and (ii) administrative facilities, including bookkeeping, clerical personnel and equipment necessary for the efficient conduct of the investment affairs of the Fund (excluding determination of net asset values and shareholder accounting services).

(b)  Subadviser will maintain all accounts, books and records with respect to the Fund as are required of an investment adviser of a registered investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act and the rules thereunder.  Subadviser agrees that such records are the property of the Trust, and will be surrendered to the Trust promptly upon request.  The Manager shall be granted reasonable access to the records and documents in Subadviser’s possession relating to the Funds.

(c)  Subadviser shall provide such information as is necessary to enable Manager to prepare and update the Trust’s registration statement (and any supplement thereto) and the Fund’s financial statements.  Subadviser understands that the Trust and Manager will rely on such information in the preparation of the Trust’s registration statement and the Fund’s financial statements, and hereby covenants that any such information approved by Subadviser expressly for use in such registration and/or financial statements shall be true and complete in all material respects.

(d)  Subadviser will vote the Fund’s investment securities in the manner in which Subadviser believes to be in the best interests of the Fund, and shall review its proxy voting activities on a periodic basis with the Trustees.

APPENDIX A

Pursuant to Section 1.6 of the Subadvisory Agreement among Fidelity ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust (the “Trust”), on behalf of Fidelity Small-Mid Factor ETF (the “Fund”), FMR Co., Inc. (“Manager”) and Geode Capital Management, LLC (“Subadviser”), Subadviser shall be compensated for the services it performs on behalf of the Fund as follows:

1.

Fees Payable by Manager.  Manager will pay Subadviser a monthly fee computed at an annual             rate of 0.03% (3.0 basis points) of the average daily net assets of the Fund (computed in a manner set forth in the Trust’s Declaration of Trust) throughout the month.*

* Subject to a Fund Minimum of:

Year 1: $0

Year 2: $25,000

Year 3: $50,000

Subadviser’s fee shall be computed monthly based on total net assets, and within twelve business days of the end of each calendar month, Manager shall transmit to Subadviser the fee for the previous month.  Payment shall be made in federal funds wired to a bank account designated by Subadviser.  If this Agreement becomes effective or terminates before the end of any month, the fee (if any) for the period from the effective date to the end of such month or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination occurs.

Subadviser agrees to look exclusively to Manager, and not to any assets of the Trust or the Fund, for the payment of Subadviser’s fees arising under this Appendix A.

APPENDIX B

The Subadviser will provide the following ETF-related services to the Manager:

1.

Assistance in facilitating certain order types as may be mutually agreed to by both parties.

2.

Preparation and dissemination of portfolio listing files (PLF).

3.

Provision of PLF and Fund holdings files to the Manager at times to be mutually agreed to by

both parties.

4.

Processing of orders received for creations and redemptions from an order taker designated by

the Manager.

The Manager, and not the Subadviser, shall be responsible for: entering into all necessary agreements with authorized participants, authorized participant relationship management, client trading support and issuer resolution, determinations of exchange on which to list Funds, designation of lead market maker, initial seed and order taking. For the avoidance of doubt, Manager will pay any and all licensing data fees charged by the calculation agent, and provide index data to the Subadviser at no expense.
