Bond Fund       Managed by the Pacific Investment Management Company, this fund is a broad market bond fund.

S&P 500 Index Fund      Managed by State Street Global Investors, this fund's performance objective is to replicate the returns and characteristics of the S&P 500 Index. This is accomplished by using a replication process to purchase every security listed in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index and weight them according to their market capitalization.

Balanced Fund   The Oakmark Equity & Income Fund seeks high current income and preservation and growth of capital. The Fund is primarily made up of U.S. equity and fixed-income securities and typically holds 30 to 40 equity securities and 10 to 15 fixed income holdings. 
International Equity Fund       This fund is managed by two active international managers with a 50% allocation to each fund. The GE Institutional International Equity seeks long term growth of capital by investing its net assets in equity securities under normal market conditions. The Fund invests primarily in companies in developed and developing countries outside the United States. The Harbor International invests in several developed and emerging countries. Country and industry selections are made on the basis of overall economic and industry considerations. Stock selection is made utilizing value oriented methodology selecting companies with a steady earnings engine and a potential upside not reflected in the stock price. The manager takes a long term view, and expects to hold investments for three to five years.  
Growth Fund     The objective of the AMCAP fund is to seek long-term growth of capital by investing in growing, profitable companies. The fund seeks to invest in undervalued securities - primarily common stocks of issuers located in the U.S. - that represent good long-term investment opportunities. The fund may also hold cash or money market instruments to help reduce the fund's risk exposure in the event of a market downturn and provide liquidity to make additional investments or meet redemptions. The fund is managed by the Capital Research and Management Company.    
Aggressive Growth Fund  Managed independently by three asset managers, this fund's objective is to keep capital appreciation through investment in securities of small and medium sized companies with undervalued assets or favorable growth prospects. This is achieved by investing assets in diversified portfolios of primarily common stocks, but may also include other equity-like securities such as convertible bonds and debentures, preferred stocks, warrants, and convertible preferred stocks. Securities are selected solely for their capital appreciation potential, and investment income is not a consideration.   
Mid-Cap Fund    Managed independently by three asset managers, this fund's objective is to seek capital appreciation through investment in securities of medium sized companies with undervalued assets or favorable growth prospects. This is achieved by investing assets in diversified portfolios of primarily common stocks, but may also include other equity-like securities such as convertible bonds and debentures, preferred stocks, warrants, and convertible preferred stocks. Securities are selected solely for their capital appreciation potential, and investment income is not a consideration.     
Large Cap Value Fund    WEDGE Capital Management's QVM process is designed to utilize the most productive measures of value and price momentum on a sector-by-sector basis.

The model derives from Wedge's extensive experience as value mangers, a wide range of academic and industry findings, and intensive back-testing. They apply a unique combination of value, momentum and contrarian factors to each sector in an effort to achieve their clients investment objectives.
