These returns are estimated for the period as all underlying accounts have not yet been reconciled. All rates of return include reinvested dividends and other earnings. Net of fee returns reflect the payment of advisory fees and in some instances, other fees and expenses such as administrative and transfer fees while the gross of fee returns do not. Both are net of brokerage commissions charged to the accounts. The performance data shown represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The performance results for the Composites are shown in comparison to indices. Unlike the Composites, the indices are not actively managed and do not reflect the deduction of any advisory or other fees and expenses. While the securities comprising the indices are not identical to those in the Composites, DCM believes this comparison may be useful in evaluating performance. Please see the notes at the end of this presentation for important information about market indices, investment risks and performance calculations. 2 of 5

COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE MICRO CAP GROWTH COMPOSITE The Micro Cap Growth Composite presented includes all unleveraged micro cap growth accounts over which the Company exercises discretionary investment authority of both cash and equities using the same investment objective and philosophy. The Composite was created in January 1996. An account is considered to be a micro cap growth account if it primarily invests in U.S. equity securities of growth companies with market capitalization ranges of generally followed micro cap indices at the time of purchase. However, there is no requirement to be exclusively invested in micro cap stocks, and the accounts have invested, to a lesser extent, in stocks with a larger capitalization from time to time. COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE SMALL CAP GROWTH COMPOSITE The Small Cap Growth Composite presented includes all unleveraged small cap growth accounts over which the Company exercises discretionary investment authority of both cash and equities using the same investment objective and philosophy. The Composite was created in January 1993. An account is considered to be a small cap growth account if it primarily invests in U.S. equity securities of high growth companies within market capitalization ranges of generally followed small cap indices at the time of purchase. However, there is no requirement to be exclusively invested in small cap stocks, and the accounts have invested, to a lesser extent, in stocks with a smaller or larger capitalization from time to time. COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE SMALL/MID CAP GROWTH COMPOSITE The Small/Mid Cap Growth Composite includes all unleveraged small mid cap growth accounts over which DCM exercises discretionary investment authority of both cash and equities using the same investment objective and philosophy.

The Composite was created in July 2001. An account is considered to be an international small cap growth account if it seeks to maximize capital appreciation through active investment primarily in equity securities of smaller capitalization, non-u.s. companies exhibiting strong growth characteristics. Under normal market conditions, the style invests at least 80% of total net assets in the equity securities of non-u.s. small capitalization companies. COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE EMERGING MARKETS GROWTH COMPOSITE The Emerging Markets Growth Composite presented includes all unleveraged emerging markets growth accounts over which the Company exercises discretionary investment authority of both cash and equities using the same investment objective and philosophy. The Composite was created in January 1997. An account is considered to be an emerging markets growth account if it seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of rapidly growing companies in emerging markets countries around the world. This strategy may invest substantially all (no less than 80%) of its assets in emerging markets companies. COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE EMERGING MARKETS SMALL CAP EQUITY COMPOSITE The Emerging Markets Small Cap Equity Composite (the Composite) presented includes all emerging markets small cap equity accounts over which the Company exercises discretionary investment authority of both cash and equities using the same investment objective and philosophy. The Composite was created in February 2016. An account is considered to be an emerging markets small cap equity account if it seeks to maximize capital appreciation through active investment primarily in a portfolio of emerging market traded equity and equity-convertible securities of smaller capitalization companies with perceived high growth potential. COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE FRONTIER MARKETS COMPOSITE The Driehaus Frontier Markets Composite represents all frontier markets accounts actively and exclusively managed by DCM since inception of the first account in September 2014 when the composite was created. The style seeks to maximize capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies domiciled in frontier markets and companies not domiciled in frontier markets but that derive a substantial portion of their revenues from frontier markets. Frontier markets will be defined as those countries classified as frontier markets by the MSCI. The style will hold a diversified portfolio unconstrained as to geography, sector or market capitalization. Once an account has met the above criteria and is fully invested, it is included in the Composite in the next full monthly reporting period. Accounts that change investment strategies are transferred between composites in the first full monthly reporting period in which the account is managed under the new style. Terminated accounts are excluded from the Composite in the first month in which they are not fully invested as of the end of the month. COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE ACTIVE INCOME COMPOSITE The Active Income Composite presented includes all active income accounts over which the Company exercises discretionary investment authority of both cash and securities using the same investment objective and philosophy. The Composite was created in May 2009. An account is considered to be an active income account if it seeks to provide current income and capital appreciation by investing in U.S fixed income and floating rate securities, of both investment and non investment grade credit quality, and by engaging in a variety of short-term trading strategies involving both fixed income and equity securities. The style is actively managed by taking both long and short positions and may invest in foreign securities. The use of derivatives, in particular the use of swap contracts and short-selling is an integral part of the active income strategy. The style holds swap contracts daily, and securities sold short make up a significant portion of the total investments held in an account at any one time. In addition options, both purchased and written, as well as futures contracts are frequently used. 3 of 5

Trades will often center on corporate events, such as earnings, product cycles, restructurings, corporate actions, market dislocations or portfolio hedges. The strategy invests in a broad range of asset classes, including fixed income, loans, stocks, American Depositary Receipts and Global Depositary Receipts, options, futures and swaps. Securities held are issued by, or are in reference to U.S. and non U.S. companies. The strategy may also invest in currencies as well as engage in a variety of arbitrage trading strategies.

COMPOSITE OBJECTIVES AND ACCOUNTS ELIGIBLE FOR THE MULTI-ASSET GROWTH ECONOMIES COMPOSITE The Multi-Asset Growth Economies Composite represents all accounts that seek to provide capital appreciation through an investment in securities of companies located in or deriving substantial revenues from growth economies or emerging markets.

The style may invest long and short in equities, fixed income securities as well as forwards on interest rates, currencies commodities and may also hold swaps, options and other derivatives. The use of derivatives is an integral part of the strategy, making up a notable portion of the total investments in an account at any one time. Once an account has met the above criteria for each Composite and is fully invested, it is included in the Composite in the next full monthly reporting period. Accounts that change investment strategies are transferred between composites in the first full monthly reporting period in which the account is managed under the new style. Terminated accounts are excluded from the Composite in the first month in which they are not fully invested as of the end of the month. PERFORMANCE RESULTS Asset-weighted, net of fee and gross of fee composite returns are presented. Monthly composite returns are calculated as the sum of the monthly returns of each account weighted by the account s beginning monthly value as compared to the Composite total. Equal-weighted composite returns are available upon request, but are not examined by independent accountants. For periods prior to November 1, 2004, time-weighted account rates of return were calculated on a monthly basis and allowed for the effect of cash additions and withdrawals using the Modified-Dietz method. If a cash contribution or withdrawal exceeded 10% of an account s value, the account was revalued and the return was calculated for the interim period. Effective November 1, 2004, account rates of return are calculated on a monthly basis by geometrically linking daily returns. Monthly composite returns are geometrically linked to determine annual composite returns. Net of fee returns reflect the payment of advisory fees and in some instances, other fees and expenses such as administrative and transfer fees while the gross of fee returns do not. Both are net of brokerage commissions charged to the accounts. The annualized rate of return is presented as the level annual rate which, if earned for each year in a multiple-year period, would produce the actual cumulative rate of return over that period. For small cap growth, mid cap growth, and small/mid cap accounts, valuations and returns are computed and stated in U.S. dollars. After March 1, 1990, securities transactions, which include brokerage commissions, are recorded on a trade date basis, and where information is available, income and expense items are recorded on an accrual basis and income and expense items are recorded on an accrual basis. Prior to 1990, settlement date valuation was used and interest and dividends were recorded on a cash basis. Returns are presented on a pretax basis. Leverage is not a part of the Company s investment strategy for these Composites. For micro cap growth accounts, valuations and returns are computed and stated in U.S. dollars. Securities transactions, which include brokerage commissions, are recorded on a trade date basis and where information is available, income and expense items are recorded on an accrual basis and income and expense items are recorded on an accrual basis. Returns are presented on a pretax basis. Leverage is not a part of the Company s investment strategy for this Composite. For international small cap growth, frontier markets, emerging markets growth, emerging markets small cap growth, emerging markets small cap equity, multi-asset growth economies and event driven accounts, valuations and returns are computed and stated in U.S. dollars. Since returns are stated in U.S. dollars, exchange rates were used in the conversion. The Company is not aware of any significant inconsistencies between exchange rates used in the Composites and those used in the benchmark indices. Securities transactions, which include brokerage commissions, are recorded on a trade date basis, and where information is available, income and expense items are recorded on an accrual basis. Returns are presented on a pretax basis and are net of any actual foreign taxes withheld on dividends and interest. Leverage is not a part of the Company s investment strategy for these Composites with the exception of active income, emerging markets small cap growth, multi-asset growth economies and event driven. Securities are valued in the foreign currency in which they are denominated and then translated into U.S. dollars at the spot rate. The accounts in the Composite enter into foreign currency contracts to facilitate all transactions in foreign denominated securities and to hedge the risk of currency fluctuation between the trade date and the settlement date of the underlying securities transitions. For active income, valuations and returns are computed and stated in U.S. dollars. Securities transactions, which include brokerage commissions, are recorded on a trade date basis, and where information is available, income and expense items are recorded on an accrual basis. Returns are presented on a pretax basis. Past performance is not indicative of future results. All investments have risks and you could lose money. Other methods may produce different results and the results for individual accounts and for different periods may vary depending on market conditions and the composition of the account. Care should be used when comparing these results to those published by other investment advisers, other investment vehicles and unmanaged indices due to possible differences in calculation methods. Additional information regarding policies for valuing portfolios, calculating and preparing compliant composite presentations are available upon request. A complete listing and description of all composites is also available upon request. Please contact our sales, marketing and relationship management department at 312-932-8621. TAX EFFECT The rates of return presented are determined without regard to U.S. tax consequences.
