Proposal DisclosuresIMPORTANT:The projections generated by HiddenLevers regarding the likelihood of various investment outcomes are hypothetical innature, do not reflect actual investment results, and are not guarantees of future results. Assumptions on rates of returnand standard deviation used in this analysis are based on historical return data for each security and asset class. Pastperformance is no guarantee of future results. Results may vary with each use and over time. You cannot invest directlyin a benchmark or index. Index results do not reflect fees, expenses, or sales charges incurred when makinginvestments.Methodology Used to Generate this Report:Definitions:Cross Correlations - HiddenLevers measures the correlation between every pair of investments in the portfolio. The correlationresults can vary between 1 and -1, where a correlation of 1 means that two investments move together perfectly over time, and acorrelation of -1 means that two investments move in opposite directions over time.Lever - HiddenLevers tracks different levers (economic indicators) like CPI, US GDP Growth, and oil prices, and uses movements inthese levers to define economic scenarios.Lever Impact - The lever impacts section describes the impact of different economic levers on the portfolio as a whole. An S&P leverimpact of 1.0, for example, means that a 1% rise in the S&P 500 is projected to lead to a 1% rise in the portfolio. HiddenLeverssimilarly measures the impact of a range of economic levers on the portfolio.Maximum Drawdown (MDD) - this is measured as the largest percentage drop in a position during the timeframe of measurement.Click the + sign on the Risk Measures box to see the timeframe of measurement for Max Drawdown in the top right hand corner ofthe box.Scenario - A scenario is a representation of a major macro-economic or geopolitical event which has the potential to impactinvestment returns. HiddenLevers models scenarios as a set of up-or-down movements in any of the economic indicators (levers) inthe system.Scenario Impacts - Using HiddenLevers' stress testing model, an upside and downside impact are projected for the portfolio in eachscenario. Most scenarios are modeled with multiple potential outcomes, with both positive, neutral, and negative outcomesconsidered. The best and worst projections are derived from running the different scenario outcomes against the portfolio inHiddenLevers model. The scenario-based stress testing model is discussed in detail in the Method section below.Sharpe Ratio - The Sharpe Ratio is the a measure for calculating risk-adjusted return, and this ratio has become the industrystandard for such calculations. It was developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe. The Sharpe ratio is the average return earnedin excess of the risk-free rate per unit of volatility or total risk. HiddenLevers calculates the Sharpe ratio by subtracting short term(1M) T-bill rates from the portfolio's annualized total return, and then dividing by the portfolio's volatility (annualized standarddeviation).Volatility - HiddenLevers measures volatility as the annualized standard deviation of an investment or portfolio, expressed inpercentage terms. The standard deviation is calculated using weekly data points, and is then annualized by multiplying by the

square-root of 52 (number of periods in one year).Method:This report describes one or more potential scenarios, and shows the HiddenLevers-model based performance for theportfolio in each scenario. The steps below are performed to generate the projections:Scenario -> Levers -> Assets (Stocks etc) -> Portfolio ReturnA scenario pushes levers up or down, which in turn push assets up or down, which in turn impact a portfolio's modeled return in thescenario. As defined above, a scenario is modeled as a set of movements in the levers. Regression analysis is used to determine thehistorical (prior 10 year) relationship between each lever and each asset in the portfolio. The model is then run 2500 times for eachscenario/portfolio combination. In each iteration, the model projects the returns for each asset using the historical regressioncoefficients for each lever, and using the scenario assumptions on how each lever will change. The model varies the regressioncoefficients for each iteration using a normal distribution around their mean (similar to a Monte Carlo model's varying of expectedreturns across iterations), and aggregates the results of the 2500 iterations to find a mean portfolio return with a 95% confidenceinterval. The confidence interval is displayed on the report as \"margin of error\" for each scenario.Limitations and Assumptions:This report describes one or more potential scenarios that may or may not occur. Each scenario discussed in this report is defined bythe economic assumptions listed in the Macro Impact section of each scenario page. HiddenLevers does not guarantee that anyparticular scenario will occur as modeled in this report. HiddenLevers uses historical analysis in the creation of this report, and pastperformance is not a guarantee of future results. The information contained in this report is not to be construed as advice and shouldnot be confused as any sort of advice. Investors should consider this report as only a single factor in making their investmentdecision.Disclosures:IMPORTANT: The projections or other information generated by Hidden Levers regarding the likelihood of various investmentoutcomes are hypothetical in nature, do not reflect actual investment results, and are not guarantees of future results. The returnassumptions in HiddenLevers are not reflective of any specific product, and do not include any fees or expenses that may be incurredby investing in specific products. The actual returns of a specific product may be more or less than the returns used in HiddenLevers.It is not possible to directly invest in an index. Financial forecasts, rates of return, risk, inflation, and other assumptions may be usedas the basis for illustrations. They should not be considered a guarantee of future performance or a guarantee of achieving overallfinancial objectives. Past performance is not a guarantee or a predictor of future results of either the indices or any particularinvestment. HiddenLevers offers several methods of calculating results, each of which provides one outcome from a wide range ofpossible outcomes. All results in this Report are hypothetical in nature, do not reflect actual investment results, and are notguarantees of future results. All results use simplifying assumptions that may not completely or accurately reflect the specificcircumstances. No Plan or Report has the ability to accurately predict the future. As investment returns, inflation, taxes, and othereconomic conditions vary from the Hidden Levers assumptions, your actual results will vary (perhaps significantly) from thosepresented in this Report. The results are calculated over many years, small changes can create large differences in future results.You should use this Report to help you focus on the factors that are most important to you.
