Executive Summary Report Explanation
The Executive Summary provides an overview of the fund's performance. It shows the performance in dollars, percent, and
relative to the investment policy. These are provided over different time periods including up and down markets. All rates of
return are annualized if the period for which they are calculated exceeds one year.
Account Reconciliation: This section shows the performance of the account in dollars, during the most recent quarter, the
calendar year, and since the inception date. The Beginning Value is the value at the start of each period. The Ending Value
shows the value as of the date of the report. Net contributions are the total contributions less the total withdrawals during the
period. The Investment G/L is the gain or loss resulting from the investments. It is the difference between the beginning and
ending values that cannot be explained by the net contributions. Positive investment G/L figures represent a profit, and
negative values represent a loss.
Investment Policy: This section defines the benchmark against which the fund is being compared. Generally, this is the most
important objective for a fund to achieve. The performance of the fund relative to this measure over longer periods of time, such
as market cycles, is the strongest indicator of the success or failure of the investment strategy. This objective should be
reasonable, and the performance of the fund should be measured against the investment policy after adjusting for risk.
Trailing Returns: This section shows the cumulative time weighted returns over the last 1 year, 2 years, and so on up through
10 years if available, as well as since the inception date. A positive difference indicates the fund has exceeded the policy's
returns. The investor would prefer that this difference be positive for all time periods; however, it is more important for it to be
positive for the longer periods rather than the shorter periods.
Calendar Year Returns: This section gauges the consistency of performance over one year time periods. Each calendar year
of performance represents the return from January 1st through December 31st. Watch out for a trend of declining relative
performance in recent periods.
Returns In Up/Down Markets: This section shows how the fund performed in both up and down markets. The methodology is
to segregate the performance for each time period into the quarters in which the market, as defined by the policy, was positive
and negative. Quarters with negative policy returns are treated as down markets, and quarters with positive policy returns are
treated as up markets. Thus, in a 3 year or 12 quarter period, there might be 4 down quarters and 8 up quarters. Up market
returns are calculated for the fund and the policy based on the up quarters. Down market returns are calculated for the fund
and the policy based on the down quarters. The ratio of the fund's return in up markets to the policy's is the up market capture
ratio. The ratio of the fund's return in down markets to the policy's is the down market capture ratio. Ideally, the fund would
have a greater up market capture ratio than down market capture ratio.

Risk Measures Report Explanation
The evaluation of a fund's performance should extend beyond return to encompass measures of risk. The next two pages are
used to determine the level of risk to which the fund has been exposed, and whether the return has been commensurate with
the risk taken. All measures are calculated for both the fund and the policy as well as the difference between the two. Up to
four time periods are evaluated depending on the age of the fund.
# Of Negative Qtrs/# Of Positive Qtrs: Number of negative quarters shows the number of quarters in which the return was
less than zero, and the number of positive quarters is the number of quarterly returns which were greater or equal to zero.
Batting Average: The batting average is a measure of consistency. It shows the percent of the quarters the fund has beaten
the policy and the percent of the quarters the policy has beat the fund. A high average for the fund (e.g. over 50) is desirable,
indicating the fund has beaten the policy frequently.
Worst Quarter/Best Quarter/Range: The worst quarter is the lowest quarterly return experienced during the period, a
measure of downside risk. The best quarter is the highest quarterly return, and the range is the difference of the high and low,
and indicates dispersion.
Standard Deviation: Standard deviation measures the total volatility of the fund, by measuring dispersion. Higher standard
deviation indicates higher risk. If the quarterly or monthly returns are all the same the standard deviation will be zero. The
more they vary from one another, the higher the standard deviation. Thus, it measures uncertainty, which is a measure of risk.
Alpha/Beta/R-Squared: If the policy is appropriate, then the alpha should be positive, the beta close to one, and the r-squared
should be high. Beta measures risk relative to the policy. A beta of 1 suggests risk equivalent to the policy. Higher betas
indicate higher relative risk. A beta of 1.2 indicates 20% more risk than the policy. The alpha measures the return adjusting for
beta. The higher the alpha, the better. R-squared measures the relationship between the policy and the fund. A high
r-squared means the returns of the fund can largely be explained by movements of the policy. The higher the r-squared, the
more reliable the alpha and the beta. R-squared may range from 0 to 100. Beta, alpha and r-squared are derived from
regression analysis using the fund and policy returns as the dependent and independent variables respectively. Roughly, one
would expect the fund's performance to equal the return of the policy multiplied by the beta plus the alpha.

Sharpe Ratio/Treynor Ratio: The Sharpe and Treynor ratios are similar. The Sharpe ratio is the excess return per unit of total
risk as measured by standard deviation. The Treynor ratio is the excess return per unit of market risk as measured by beta.
Both of these should be compared against the corresponding value for the policy. Higher numbers are better, indicating more
return for the level of risk that was experienced.

Quarterly Comparison Analysis (%) Report Explanation
This page compares the returns of the fund to the returns of the investment policy and to the other investment objectives
quarter by quarter for the last five years. The last row shows the returns since inception.
The purpose of this page is to indicate how closely the fund has tracked its objectives, particularly the investment policy. If the
quarterly difference are small, then the fund has tracked the objectives closely. Wide discrepancies suggest that the fund is
being invested in a fashion which does not resemble the underlying objective. It is not likely a fund invested in stocks and/or
bonds will track a fixed (e.g. 10%) rate of return, or inflation very closely. However, a fund invested in securities should be able
to track an index comprised of similar securities.
This page also provides a measure of the fund's ability to meet its objectives frequently. If the fund often outperforms the
objective, then the difference column will have a preponderance of positive values.
If the investment policy or the objectives have changed over time, the heading at the top of each column will only reflect the
current policy and objectives, even though the quarterly returns include the alterations.

Quarterly Comparison Analysis ($) Report Explanation
This report shows the performance, in dollars, of the fund relative to the objectives. The idea is to show a hypothetical value
that reflects what the account would be worth if it had instead invested in each objective.

The column titled "Fund" shows the actual values in the fund at the end of the quarter. The amount shown for the first date is
the same for each objective as that of the fund. This is the amount assumed to be invested in each objective. All other values
for the objectives are based on reinvesting the preceding amount, earning the return of the objective, and adjusting for
contributions or withdrawals to the fund.
A positive difference between the fund and an objective represents the additional dollars that are in the fund that would not be
available if the fund had actually experienced the return of the objective. A negative difference may be thought of as the cost
incurred in experiencing the actual performance instead of the objective performance.
The report will show results since the inception of the fund, or quarterly results over the last five years, whichever is less.

Attributions of Returns Report Explanation
Performance attribution concentrates on evaluating the effect of the manager's decisions on asset allocation and security
selection. This allows the investor to see whether the manager is adding value by adjusting the actual asset allocation or by
picking individual securities. This information is valuable in helping determine the amount of freedom that might be given to the
manager in regard to asset allocation ranges. The result of these skills are shown for multiple time periods.
The top section shows the returns for both the account and the investment policy and the results of the manager's contribution.
The fund's return is thus attributed to the policy and the manager.
The bottom section divides the manager's contribution into two components: asset allocation and security selection. The asset
allocation effect measures the value that was added by varying the actual asset allocation from the target allocation. This is
done by assuming investments, in amounts equal to the actual asset allocation weights, were made in the policy's indices so
that security selection has no effect. The difference between this return and the policy's return is the asset allocation effect.
The security selection is the remainder of the manager's contribution that is not explained by asset allocation.

Market Values and Cash Flows Report Explanation
This page summarizes the market values, flows, net gain or loss and returns for the fund for the last five years. Net flows refer
to the contributions less the withdrawals from the fund. This page illustrates the change in market value through time, and
suggests whether changes were due to contributions, withdrawals, or investment profits.
