Investment Objective
The objective of this Large Capitalization Value approach is to provide over the life of the Strategy and over every three-year period an investment return superior to that of the Russell 1000 Value Index.

Investment Philosophy
The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), which questions the ability of active equity management to outperform the market indexes on a consistent basis, is largely valid; however, there are three exploitable anomalies within the EMH:

Combining the three sets of buy/sell disciplines exploiting these anomalies produces consistently superior investment returns.

Investment Process
Consistent with the investment philosophy of Value Plus, portfolios typically consist of 20 stocks in three independently managed groups:

The Yield Group stocks are selected from the 75-candidate LARGCAP Universe on the basis of high dividend yield; each stock then is sold only when its yield is no longer competitive. The Contrarian Group also is selected from the LARGCAP Universe, on the basis of multi-year underperformance. The Group then is held for a multi-year period of recovery. Finally, Momentum Group stocks are selected from the S&P 500 on the basis of superior performance, and are held only as long as they remain superior performers. Each Group has a role to play. The Yield Group is the Downside Protectors, which are expected to perform well in difficult markets. The Contrarian and Momentum Groups are the Performance Drivers, and are expected to perform well in favorable markets. As a result, the Value Plus strategy, among a select few, has the opportunity to provide superior returns in all phases of the market cycle, and the use of multiple sets of buy/sell disciplines results in a more consistent pattern of superior returns.

2. The Value Plus performance composite (Composite A: all non-wrap fee accounts and those with a fixed annual broker charge less than 0.25% of assets), formerly Growth & Value 20 Composite A, officially was created on January 1, 2002; however, the composite as currently defined has an effective date of compliance with the AIMR-PPSTM of January 1, 1997.

4. The most appropriate benchmarks for the Value Plus strategy are the style-specific Russell 1000 Value Index and the more broadly representative S&P 500 Index.
