The Board of Trustees will reserve control over investment decisions, with the exception of specific guidelines described in this statement. The Investment Advisor will be held responsible and accountable to achieve the objectives herein stated. DEFINITIONS As used in this Statement of Investment Policy and Objectives and the addendum - Statement of Investment Guidelines, the following definitions shall apply: 1.

ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITY The Board of Trustees of the Foundation is charged with the responsibility for the management of the assets of the Foundation. The Board shall discharge its duties solely in the interest of the Foundation, with the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, that a prudent person, acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character with like aims. The specific responsibilities of the Board relating to the investment management of the assets of the Foundation include: 1.

Investment of the assets of the Foundation shall be so diversified as to minimize risk consistent with the policies, guidelines, constraints and philosophies as outlined in this statement. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES The primary investment objective of the Foundation is to preserve capital while generating sufficient income to meet spending needs. The secondary investment objective is total return that IS the aggregate result of capital appreciation, dividend and interest income. 3
4 SPECIFIC INVESTMENT GOALS It is the goal of the Foundation to realize an absolute annual rate of return of 6.0%. may change from time to time at the discretion of the Board of Trustees. This Goal The investment goals above are the objectives of the Foundation, and are not meant to be imposed on each investment account. The goal of the Investment Advisor, over the investment horizon, shall be to: 1. Meet or exceed the market index, or blended market index, selected and agreed upon by the Board that most closely corresponds to the style of investment management. 2. Display an overall level of risk in the portfolio that is consistent with the risk associated with the benchmark specified above. Risk will be measured by the standard deviation of quarterly returns. Specific investment goals and constraints for the Investment Advisor, if any, shall be incorporated as part of this statement of investment policy. It is understood that negative market returns associated with a specific style of investing may negatively impact on annual rates of return. ASSET ALLOCATION GUIDELINES Investment Allocation Guidelines of the Foundation shall be determined by the Board of Trustees. SELECTION OF INVESTMENT ADVISOR The Board's selection of Investment Advisor must be based on prudent due diligence procedures. INVESTMENT ADVISOR PERFORMANCE REVIEW AND EVALUATION Performance reports, generated by the Investment Advisor, shall be compiled on a timely basis and communicated to the Board for review. The investment performance of total portfolios, as well as asset class components, will be measured against commonly accepted performance benchmarks. Consideration shall be given to the extent to which the investment results are consistent with the investment objectives, goals, and guidelines as set forth in this statement. The Board intends to evaluate the portfolio(s) over a two-year period, but reserves the right to terminate an Investment Advisor for any reason including, by way of illustration and not limitation, the following: 1. Investment performance, which is significantly less than anticipated given the discipline employed and the risk parameters established, with an unacceptable justification of poor results. 4
5 2. Failure to adhere to any aspect of this statement of investment policy, including communication and reporting requirements. 3. Significant qualitative changes to the investment management organization. The Investment Advisor shall be reviewed regularly regarding performance, personnel, strategy, research capabilities, organizational and business matters, and other qualitative factors that may impact ability to achieve the desired investment results. CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT Each member of the Board of Trustees of the Foundation shall submit, to the Foundation, an annual statement of conflict of interest on a form provided by the Foundation. INVESTMENT POLICY REVIEW To ensure continued relevance of the guidelines, objectives, financial status and Capital markets expectations as established in this statement of investment policy, the Board plans to review the investment policy at least annually and make any changes deemed appropriate. 5
