18 Investment Process Written Investment Objective Statement Developing a clear investment objective statement helps our clients have a sound understanding of why the portfolio was constructed as it was and how it should perform in any market environment. Objective Sample Investment Objectives and Guidelines The objective of the portfolio is current income and minimum growth of capital. This is achieved by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity and fixed income securities. The portfolio seeks to maximize potential total return consistent with minimizing overall volatility in the context of these guidelines. The total return for the individual investment styles will be compared to their appropriate index or the appropriate Lipper Peer Group. Asset Mix Allocation Min/Max Target Cash 0-10% 0% Fixed Income 30-50% 40% Equities 50-70% 60% Acceptable Investments This section specifies the money market, fixed income, and equity securities that could be utilized in the portfolio. Diversification This section outlines the maximum market value certain securities may represent within the portfolio at the time of purchase.

19 Investment Process Use of Investments Mutual Funds - Inside/Outside Individual Stocks/Bonds Application of Special Strategies

20 Investment Process Conservative Income Strategies Bonds Immediate Annuities High Dividend Income Strategy

21 M&I High Dividend Income Strategy Philosophy Our investment objectives are Competitive long-term returns Reduced volatility Dividends are the guide to both objectives We accomplish our objectives with a unique, quantitative, value-oriented approach Conditions To Consider Dividend yield moving closer to the long-term average of 3%. The U.S. population s two oldest groups will grow by more than double the average of the total population. The aging U.S. population should continue to drive a demand imbalance for dividend-paying stocks. Historically, companies paying dividends have generated higher relative returns. Tax rates on dividends near historic low.

22 M&I High Dividend Income Strategy Process 500 Stocks S&P 500 Dividend Screen: Identify the highest yielding securities (upper 20% of S&P 500 by market capitalization) Rebalance twice per year on January 1 and July 1 Between rebalance dates, adjust the index daily for S&P 500 composition changes Stocks High Dividend Income Benchmark Quantitative Analysis: Sort all benchmark stocks by industry Rank securities in each industry by quantitative factors which emphasize quality characteristics Portfolio optimized by: Maintaining neutral industry weights Overweighting top ranked quality stocks Underweighting low ranked quality stocks Stocks High Dividend Income Portfolio The S&P 500 is an unmanaged index of common stocks in industrial, transportation, financial and public utility sectors. Actual investments cannot be made in an index.
