6 Capital Markets Review Second Quarter Economic Environment Key Economic Indicators Global risk assets continued to perform well during the second quarter of 17, with gains broadly supported by strengthening economic data related to global inflation, job growth, and corporate fundamentals. In contrast to prior run-ups in risk assets, the past quarter was marked by high levels of sector and market factor dispersion. This created significant opportunities for skilled active managers and generated tailwinds for strategies with heavy growth and cyclical biases. Geographically, emerging markets outperformed developed, while international markets generally outperformed US markets. Gains across most risk assets occurred despite persistent political divisiveness in the US, heightened geopolitical risks (most notably in North Korea), and a range of other international issues. Although positive economic fundamentals have thus far supported 17 market gains, it is possible that unanticipated global central bank policy and US political events could have a larger influence on markets through the remainder of the year Unemployment Rate (%) Since CPI Year-over- Year (% change) Since 1914 Key Economic Indicators US Govt Debt (% of GDP) Since VIX Index (Volatility) Since Consumer Confidence Since 1967 Economic Indicators Jun-17 Mar-17 Jun-16 Jun-14 Yr Federal Funds Rate (%) Breakeven Infl. - 1 Yr (%) N/A Breakeven Infl. - Yr (%) N/A CPI YoY (Headline) (%) Unemployment Rate (%) Real GDP YoY (%) PMI - Manufacturing USD Total Wtd Idx WTI Crude Oil per Barrel ($) Gold Spot per Oz ($) 1, , , , Market Performance (%) QTD CYTD 1 Yr 5 Yr Yr S&P 500 (Cap Wtd) Russell MSCI EAFE (Net) MSCI EAFE SC (Net) MSCI Emg Mkts (Net) Bloomberg US Agg Bond BofA ML 3 Mo US T-Bill NCREIF ODCE (Gross) Wilshire US REIT HFRI FOF Comp Bloomberg Cmdty (TR) Treasury Yield Curve (%) 3M 6M 1Y 3Y 5Y 7Y Y Y 30Y Jun-17 Mar-17 Jun-16 Jun-15 Jun-14 Treasury data courtesy of the US Department of the Treasury.

7 US Equity Review Second Quarter Review Broad Market Domestic equity markets continued to rally during the second quarter, albeit at a slower rate and with less volatility. Expectations for fiscal stimulus were again supportive of markets during the quarter, as was the positive tone from the Federal Open Market Committee ( FOMC ) regarding near-term economic growth and inflation expectations. Equities provided positive returns across all market caps and styles, but with significant dispersion across sectors and market factors. Market Cap Large cap stocks continued to outpace small cap stocks, with the exception of micro cap. Style and Sector Growth continued its strong run in the second quarter of 17, with the Russell 3000 Growth Index posting returns of 4.7% for the quarter and 13.7% year-to-date, versus 1.3% and 4.3%, respectively, for its value counterpart.

8 Non-US Equity Review Second Quarter Review Broad Market International equity markets continued to react positively to signs of strengthening economic growth across both developed and emerging markets, driving equity and sovereign debt yields higher. Region From a country perspective, political developments drove a generally risk-on repricing of assets. France and the Netherlands withstood the antiglobalization political forces, which reduced political uncertainty and supported higher asset prices. Market Cap & Style Developed small-cap equities outperformed large-cap equities, while emerging markets equities narrowly edged out developed markets equities. As would be expected during periods of growth leadership, healthcare and technology led performance from a sector standpoint, with materials, energy, and telecom lagging.

9 Fixed Income Review Second Quarter Review Broad Market The FOMC raised the Federal Funds rate by 0.25% during its June meeting, citing developments in labor markets and expectations for higher inflation over the near-term. As expected, given recent inflation data and the June increase in the targeted Federal Funds rate, the yield curve flattened considerably during the second quarter. Credit Market Unsurprisingly, given the general risk-on sentiment of the second quarter, credit spreads tightened for both the BofAML US Corporate Index and the BofAML US High Yield Index. International Emerging markets debt continued to be a top performer in 17. Hard currency EMD returned 2.2% for the quarter and 6.2% for the year-to-date, as measured by the JPM EMBI Global Diversified Index.

10 Alternatives Review Second Quarter Review - Absolute Return General Market - Hedge Funds The hedge fund industry continued to produce positive returns for the quarter, though they cooled slightly from the pace set in the first quarter. As measured by the HFRI Fund Weighted Composite, the industry has now generated positive returns in 15 out of 16 months dating back to March 16. Macro strategies continued to lag other sectors, however, as systematic strategies were whipsawed by interest rate movements in 17. General Market - Global Tactical Asset Allocation (GTAA) Relative to an undiversified and static portfolio comprised of 60% US equity and 40% fixed income, performance across the GTAA manager universe was mixed in the second quarter. The stronger-performing tactical managers either avoided or de-emphasized US large cap equity exposure in favor of foreign developed equity, emerging market equity, and credit-sensitive fixed income. Managers with overweight positions in European and Japanese equity exposures fared particularly well. Second Quarter Review - Real Assets General Market - Diversified Inflation Strategies (DIS) Performance for Diversified Inflation Strategies in the second quarter varied widely, as commodities exposure (or lack thereof) served as the defining characteristic that separated strong manager returns from disappointing ones. General Market - Real Estate Core real estate returns mirrored those experienced in the first quarter. Gains were moderate with income comprising more than half of the quarter s total return. The core index, NCREIF-ODCE, returned 1.7% (on a preliminary basis) during the quarter, reinforcing investor expectations of lower returns going forward as we enter the later stages of the recovery. Real estate valuations remain at elevated levels. However, with the exception of a small cohort of high-end luxury properties in a few gateway cities, fundamentals remain intact.

Sharpe Ratio - Represents the excess rate of return over the risk-free return (i.e., BofA ML 3 Mo US T-Bill Index unless specified otherwise), divided by the standard deviation of the excess return to the risk free asset. The result is the absolute rate of return per unit of risk. The higher the value, the better the product's historical risk-adjusted performance.
