Alternative Investments Pipeline
2013 Presentation
An investment in alternative investment strategies involves substantial risks, and potential investors should clearly understand the risks involved. Investing in
alternative investment strategies is speculative, not suitable for all clients, and intended for experienced and sophisticated investors who are willing to bear the
high economic risks of the investment, which can include: loss of all or a substantial portion of the investment due to leveraging, short-selling or other speculative
investment practices; lack of liquidity in that there may be no secondary market for the fund and none expected to develop; volatility of returns; restrictions on
transferring interests in the fund; absence of information regarding valuations and pricing; delays in tax reporting; less regulation and higher fees than mutual
funds; and advisor risk.
Investment Products:
- Not FDIC Insured
- No Bank Guarantee
- May Lose Value
Please read Important disclosures at the end of the presentation.

Current key themes in the hedge fund space
Event Driven Equities
• High levels of cash on corporate balance sheets and free cash flow are drivers for the opportunity set
• Cash has greater potential to benefit equity holders through share buybacks, higher dividends, merger activity, asset
purchases, spin-offs, and investment in capital expenditures
• Activists seemingly are gaining more institutional investor support in affecting change amongst management teams
in underperforming companies

Current key themes in the hedge fund space (cont.)
Relative Value / Distressed
• Refinancing opportunities should continue to be profitable due to the benign rate environment and increasingly
cooperative capital markets
• Premium for "on-the-run" versus "off-the-run" high yield bonds and leveraged loans are leading to lower dollar
prices and higher yields for "off-the-run" assets,
• In the leveraged loan market specifically, unrated loans are trading at yield concessions because collateralized loan
obligations ("CLO's") have limited capacity to hold unrated paper
• Mature part of the liquidation / litigation cycle where there is more clarity on the amount of claims versus assets;
these "process-driven" positions tend to have low correlation to the market
Liquid securities only represent 18% of the high yield bond

Long / Short Equity
• Potential for a sustained recovery in cyclicals as North American dominance in unconventional drilling coincides with a
housing recovery
• The technology sector may continue to benefit from network upgrades, mobile computing, data protection and storage,
while also providing a great source of potential short opportunities from aging business models and technologies
• P/E ratios for emerging markets are lagging developed markets and there is room for greater convergence and multiple
expansion, given low price-to-book ratios and valuations at the lower end of historical ranges

Current key themes in the hedge fund space (cont.)
Structured Credit
• There are more "buy and hold" investors (such as insurance companies) willing to hold positions coupled with a finite and
declining supply of non-agency RMBS
• Certain structured credit instruments are exhibiting seemingly mispriced default rates and higher loss adjusted yields
relative to other fixed income asset classes
• CLOs in the U.S. and Europe may present attractive yields to maturity with a significant margin of safety for older deals
along with well-structured new issues which have revived interest in the asset class
The am ou nt of outstanding non-agency RNIBS has declined

Definitions of terms and indices
Buyout: An investment transaction by which the ownership equity of a company, or a majority share of the stock of the company is acquired. The acquirer thereby 'buys out'
control of the target company. A buyout can take the form of a leveraged buyout, a venture capital buyout or a management buyout.
Collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) are a form of securitization where payments from multiple middle sized and large business loans are pooled together and passed on to
different classes of owners in various [ranches. A CLO is a type of collateralized debt obligation.
The Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index is designed to mirror the investable universe of the USD-denominated leveraged loan market The index inception is January 1992.
Leveraged loans are loans to non-investment grade companies. Purposes include: refinancing, leveraged buy-out, leveraged re-capitalization, corporate acquisition, stock
buyback and working capital. M&A and refinancing usually the biggest categories, although recently LBOs picked up to around 1/3.
The Merrill Lynch High-Yield Master II Index is a market value-weighted index of all domestic and Yankee high-yield bonds (dollar-denominated bonds issued in the U.S. by

Key risks of investing in alternatives
General/Loss of capital. An investment in alternative investment funds involves a high degree of risk. There can be no assurance that the alternative investment fund's return
objectives will be realized and investors in the alternative investment fund could lose up to the full amount of their invested capital. The alternative investment fund's fees and
expenses may offset the alternative investment fund's trading profits.
Lack of information. The industry is largely unregistered and loosely regulated with little or no public market coverage. Investors are reliant on the manager for the
availability, quality and quantity of information. Information regarding investment strategies and performance may not be readily available to investors.
Limited liquidity. Interests are not publicly listed or traded on an exchange or automated quotation system. There is not a secondary market for interests, and as a result,
invested capital is less accessible than that of traditional asset classes. Also, withdrawals and transfers are generally restricted.
Dependence on Trading Manager. Performance is more dependent on manager-specific skills, rather than broad exposure to a particular market.
Event risk. Given their niche specialization, market dislocations can affect some strategies more adversely than others.
Speculation. Alternative investments often employ leverage, sometimes at significant levels, to enhance potential returns. Investment techniques may include the use of
derivative instruments such as futures, options and short sales, which amplify the possibilities for both profits and losses and may add volatility to the alternative investment
fund's performance.
Potential conflicts of Interest The payment of a performance based fee to the Trading Manager may create an incentive for the Trading Manager to cause the alternative
investment fund to make riskier or more speculative investments than it would in the absence of such incentive.
Valuation. Because of overall size or concentration in particular markets of positions held by the alternative investment fund or other reasons, the value at which its investments
can be liquidated may differ, sometimes significantly, from the interim valuations arrived at by the alternative investment fund.
Leverage. The capital structures of many financial services companies typically include substantial leverage. In addition, investments may be consummated through the use of
significant leverage. Leveraged capital structures and the use of leverage in financing investments increase the exposure of a company to adverse economic factors such as rising
interest rates, downturns in the economy or deteriorations in the condition of the company or its industry and make the company more sensitive to declines in revenues and to
increases in expenses.
Currency risks and Non-United States investments. Investments may be denominated in non-U.S. currencies. Accordingly, changes in currency exchange rates, costs of
conversion and exchange control regulations may adversely affect the dollar value of investments.
Financial services industry risk factors. Financial services institutions have asset and liability structures that are essentially monetary in nature and are directly affected by
many factors, including domestic and international economic and political conditions, broad trends in business and finance, legislation and regulation affecting the national and
international business and financial communities, monetary and fiscal policies, interest rates, inflation, currency values, market conditions, the availability and cost of short-term
or long-term funding and capital, the credit capacity or perceived creditworthiness of customers and counterparties, and the volatility of trading markets. Financial services
institutions operate in a highly regulated environment and are subject to extensive legal and regulatory restrictions and limitations and to supervision, examination and
enforcement by regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with, any of these laws, rules or regulations, some of which are subject to interpretation and may be subject to change,
could result in a variety of adverse consequences, including civil penalties, fines, suspension or expulsion, and termination of deposit insurance, which may have material adverse
effects.
Risks associated with infrastructure investments generally. An infrastructure investment is subject to certain risks associated with the ownership of infrastructure and
infrastructure-related assets in general, including: the burdens of ownership of infrastructure assets; local, national and international economic conditions; the supply and
demand for services from and access to infrastructure; the financial condition of users and suppliers of infrastructure assets; changes in interest rates and the availability of funds
which may render the purchase, sale or refinancing of infrastructure assets difficult or impracticable; changes in environmental laws and regulations, and planning, laws and other
governmental rules; environmental claims arising in respect of infrastructure assets acquired with undisclosed or unknown environmental problems or as to which inadequate
reserves have been established; changes in the price of energy, raw materials and labor; changes in fiscal and monetary policies; negative developments in the economy that
depress travel; uninsured casualties; Force majeure acts, terrorist events, under-insured or uninsurable losses; sovereign and sub-sovereign risks; contract counterparty default risk.
Additional risks: There may be additional risks inherent in the underlying investments within funds.
