53 FOSSIL FUEL UPDATE

54 Fossil Fuels Resolution Adopted December 10, 2013 The Peralta Community Colleges Board urges the Retirement Board to direct the Retiree Health Care Plan s current asset managers to: Avoid any new direct investments in fossil-fuel companies Minimize investments in commingled assets that include fossil-fuel companies Divest from any current fossil-fuel holdings at the earliest propitious moment within five years The top 200 companies on the Carbon Tracker List as published by the Fossil Free website apply to the proposal 54

55 Our Analysis of the Portfolio We analyzed the impact of the Resolution on the current portfolio holdings as of 12/31/2015 All holdings in Separately Managed Accounts and mutual funds were cross-referenced with the Top 200 Companies on the Carbon Tracker List Assuming the mutual funds were single holdings, there are a total of 742 individual holdings in the portfolio 15 individual stocks and 8 mutual funds were flagged in the cross-reference Separately Managed Accounts NB Core Fixed Income NB Large Cap Value NB Socially Responsible Investing Group Clearbridge Advisors All Cap Growth Harding Loevner International Equity ADR Mutual Funds NB Emerging Markets Fund - NEMIX NB Absolute Return Multi-Manager Fund - NABIX NB Genesis Fund - NBGIX NB Floating Rate Income Fund - NFIIX NB High Income Bond Fund - NHILX NB Emerging Market Debt Fund - NERIX NB Risk Balanced Commodity Fund NRBIX NB International Equity Fund - NBIIX If we assume all 23 flagged items were to be removed, then that represents $59.8 million (with $1.2 million in unrealized losses) The 15 individual stocks constitute $3.8 million of that value (with $0.50 million in unrealized losses) The 8 mutual funds constitute $55.9 million of that value (with $0.70 million in unrealized losses) 55
