Any restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities must be provided to the Advisor in writing in the form of, among other things, the client’s investment policy, advisory agreement or other written notice.

Local Government Investment Pools The Advisor serves as Investment Advisor for LGIP Funds. These pools are organized under state law and their participants consist of municipal entity clients such as school districts, community colleges, counties, municipalities and other units of local government. The LGIPs, which are exempt from registration under both the Securities Act of 1933 and the Investment Company Act of 1940 of the federal securities laws, consist of liquid pools, also referred to as Stable NAV LGIPs, Floating NAV LGIPs, and Term Series pools. For Stable NAV LGIPs and Term Series pools, the Advisor is expected to maintain a constant net value per share of $1.00, whereas the net asset value of the Floating NAV LGIPs will fluctuate as the value of securities held by that pool fluctuates. LGIP Funds have retained the Advisor to either provide investment advisor services in the form of day-to-day management for these LGIPs as the direct investment advisor or as sub-advisor, or to provide investment advisory supervisory services and to retain a sub-advisor for the day-to-day management for these LGIPs. Many of these LGIPs are rated by a rating agency such as Standard and Poor’s Corporation. The Advisor also serves as the investment advisor for separate Term Series pools for LGIPs. The Advisor provides the management of assets in the LGIPs’ Term Series pools which have a definite duration. The durations of the Term Series pools generally range from one day up to three years, as permitted under state statute and the LGIP’s governing documents. Term Series pools are intended to be held until maturity. A withdrawal prior to maturity will require advance notice and will likely carry a penalty which could be substantial in that it would be intended to allow the Term Series pool to recoup any associated penalties, charges, losses or other costs associated with the early redemption of the investments therein.

Separate Accounts The Advisor provides discretionary and non-discretionary investment management solutions to Separate Account clients. The Firm may provide separate account investment advisory services to a broad range of institutional entities. The current client base of separate accounts includes units of local government and accounts related to units of local government, including insurance companies whose members are units of local government and Other Post Employment Benefit accounts, generally known as “OPEB” accounts. The Advisor customizes portfolio strategies to meet each client’s unique investment goals. Portfolios are managed consistent with each client’s investment policy and other governing requirements. Portfolio duration, quality, sectors and benchmarks utilized will vary by client mandate.
