Socially Responsible Investment Fund EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2017 PORTFOLIO RESULTS The Socially Responsible Investment Fund (SRIF) employs a diversified asset allocation consistent with its long term investment horizon. Although performance goals and objectives will ultimately focus on the portfolio s long term investment experience, the SRIF has experienced outperformance relative to peers since its inception. 19.2% 19.2% 15.3% 4.6% 4th Quarter of 2017 Year to Date 1 Year Since Inception (9/1/2016) top 4% of peers Figure 1: SRIF net of fees returns as of December 31, 2017 SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING & GOSPEL VALUE PRIORITIES The SRIF seeks to incorporate the top SRI and gospel value priorities identified via dot voting at the 2014 Convention, and most recently reaffirmed and expanded at the 2017 Convention. These values encompass both positive investment, a proactive approach to socially responsible investing, and divestment, which is restriction based. The Committee recognizes that, in isolation, each investment may not address all of the SRI and gospel value priorities, but the SRIF in whole will emphasize each of these priorities. POSITIVE INVESTMENT Investors direct money toward solution oriented securities and make investments in activities and companies believed to have a positive social impact. Climate & Clean Technology Human Rights Community Development Diversity/Equal Opportunity Figure 2: SRIF SRI & gospel value priorities DIVESTMENT Investors restrict investment in certain securities based on SRI factors, excluding those restricted securities from a portfolio. Pollution & Toxics Human Rights Executive & Exploitative Pay Animal Cruelty

INVESTMENT MANAGERS The Investment Committee meets quarterly with the SRIF s consultant, Sellwood Consulting, to review the Fund s performance, asset allocation and manager structure, including performance of the individual investment managers. The Investment Committee and/or Sellwood meets with each investment manager on an ongoing basis to discuss investment results, strategy, and outlook for the future, as well as any changes or issues within the firm or investment team. Figure 3: SRIF target composition MANAGER STRATEGY DESCRIPTION Responsible Investing International Global Environmental Markets Total Return ESG Social Bond Real Estate Value Parametric manages an all cap equity portfolio, optimized to meet the SRIF s customized social screening criteria.

The SRIF is invested in the TIAA CREF Social Bond Fund, an actively managed mutual fund that invests in a diversified portfolio of U.S. fixed income securities, focusing primarily on undervalued, investment grade securities. The strategy also seeks proactive social investments.
