Returning list of entities from BizTalk orchestration

I am using BizTalk 2013 and need to retrieve data from CRM 2011 using CRM's web service. I created a service reference to CRM, created an orchestration in BizTalk and published it as a WCF service. I have a schema defining a Contact entity and when I retrieve one contact from CRM I return it as this schema ... and all is good.

My orchestration has a Request-Response port, it accepts an input of type Contact (schema) and returns the same.

The problem is when i try to return multiple Contacts. I tried creating a List in code but when I return that I get null.

Does anyone know how to achieve this? Or if there is a better way of doing it?

Thanks
