City of Hallandale Beach3rd Quarter 2012 DB Plan

Update

November 19, 2012

Economy and Market Review

• In a reversal of the general risk aversion in the second quarter of 2012, equity markets enjoyed solid gains during the third quarter

• In the U.S., the S&P 500 Index gained 6.4% in the third quarter, and is up 16.4% year-to-date

• International markets (as measured by the MSCI All Country World (ex-U.S.) Index) gained 7.4% for the third quarter, and are up 10.4% for the year

– International developed markets (as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index) gained 6.9% for the quarter and are up 10.1% for the year

– International emerging markets (as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index) gained 7.7% for the quarter and are up 12.0% for the year

• With so much slack in the U.S. economy, the EU in recession, and slow growth in China and other emerging markets, we believe potential inflation is well into the future and are keeping yields ultra-low

– The 10-year Treasury yield finished at 1.63%, down 1 basis point for the quarter

– The 2-year Treasury yield finished at 0.23%, down 8 basis points for the quarter

Economy and Market Review

• Renewed central bank easing actions dominated the headlines

• While the U.S. economy may only be the best house in a bad neighborhood, it appears to be gradually healing

• Our view is employers have cut their payrolls to the bone and will be forced to hire more to increase profitability

• Housing data continues to improve

• ECB action may stabilize the EU economy next year, but for now, the mild recession continues and potentially years of de-leveraging and restructuring lie ahead

• Economic growth in China has slowed

Recap 3rd Quarter 2012

3

• We expect U.S. growth to be a bit better in the second half than the revised 1.3% number of the second quarter

• State and local government tax revenue was up in the second quarter so the drag from public sector layoffs and spending cuts could be waning

• U.S. household spending is poised to benefit from lower mortgage rates

• We believe inflation, while a risk of Fed policy, is not an immediate worry

• The outcome of the election and resolution of the fiscal cliff will at least provide some certainty about future tax and regulatory policy. Whatever the outcome…we believe business will adjust and growth will likely accelerate in the second half.

Economy and Market ReviewOutlook for the Future

4

• Businesses and investors seem to be waiting for clarity over tax and spending negotiations before committing resources, and this delay could reinforce slow job growth and weak consumer spending – potentially nullifying the Fed’s efforts to stimulate the economy. In this environment, our forecast for year-end interest rates is:

– A Federal Funds Rate target of 0% to 0.25%

– A 10-year Treasury Rate of 2.00%

– A 2-year Treasury Rate of 0.30%

• We expect economic growth to come in around 2.2% for 2012

• Our projection for inflation for year-end 2012 is around 2.2%
