Size Matters: Small is Better GSCM was named “Top Gun Manager of Decade” by PSN Informa (3/1/2010)

– GSCM ranked Top 10 out of more than 1,000 managers (2000-2010)– All of the Top 10 equity managers had less than $3 billion in AUM

Numerous Academic Studies show Emerging Managers Outperformance– Passionate and Hungry – Focused on stock selection (not client relations & speaking obligations)– Multi-Billion AUM leads to small investible universe and trading difficulties

Access to Manager & Portfolio Transparency Large does not equal lower risk

– Amaranth, Absolute, Atticus, Bear Stearns, BP, Carlyle, Galleon, GLG, Highland, Lancer, Lehman Bros, Long-Term Capital, Madoff, Ospraie, Peloton, Pequot, and Sowood…… were all large & respected

Research by Ted Krum (Northern Trust) “Potential Benefits of Investing with Emerging Managers”– Investors with minimum assets under management requirements often excluded top-performing managers. 40% of core U.S. equity managers in the top quartile of performance managed less than $2 billion.– Emerging investment managers outperformed larger firms at the median, as well as at the top and bottom quartile levels. This result was consistent across all major style groups and implies that manager-selection skill may be better rewarded when applied to the small-firm universe.– Small firms delivered better performance in down markets.

“Almost 20 years of data show that emerging firms have been more nimble,” says Robert Furnari, managing director of Emerging Manager Programs at Northern Trust. “They can make adjustments to the portfolio in times of distress more quickly than larger firms.”

Calculation Methodology: Valuations and returns are computed and stated in U.S. dollars, and individual portfolios are revalued monthly. Pricing information is supplied by ISS. The firm uses the trade date monthly returns and links these returns geometrically to produce an accurate time-weighted rate of return. Prior to January 2002, some accounts may have employed the use of settlement date accounting to calculate performance results. Time-weighted total returns include both capital appreciation and reinvested dividends. The GSCM Composite performance is the total return including cash and cash equivalents, of an assset-weighted composite of all discretionary portfolios managed by Stuart Greenfield and Yancey Seitz. Composite returns are asset-weighted. Net of fees returns are calculated net of management fees, transaction costs, and custodian fees. To calculate gross of fees returns, please review our fees and add applicable fees back into returns accordingly. Returns are calculated gross of all withholding taxes on foreign dividends. The dispersion measure is the asset-weighted standard deviation of accounts in the composite for the entire year. On 2/28/06, the composite changed software to Advent Axys. After the change in software programs, composite returns are now calculated using modified dietz and cash-basis dividends.

Net-of-fee performance: Net of fee performance shown reflects the deduction of actual fees.
