Note : # Prior to June 2010, the Endowment Fund did not have a portfolio “benchmark”. A formal investment policy (including a benchmark) was recommended by the IMC and approved by the University's Board of Governors. The new policy and Asset Mix Target or benchmark (approved in June 2010) will be implemented over the next 12 -24 months. While not fully implemented, this report presents results relative to the interim benchmark mark contained in the new policy.

Endowment Fund Results: Relative to major asset class indices (for the 12 Months Ended March 31st, 2012)

13

Results relative to major asset class indices#: Canadian equity outperformed the S&P/TSX by 3.0%. The fund’s value style bias paid off over the course of the unusually volatile year. JF and Sionna both outperformed the benchmark by 2.5% and 4.6% respectively. Most of the value add stemmed from the underweight in materials and overweight in consumer staples sectors (7.4% vs 22.5% and 7.8% vs 2.6% respectively). International equities posted positive returns 0.7% versus - 2.7% for the MSCI EAFE index (CAD$). Tweedy Browne returned 6.9% and LSV underperformed the index over the period returning -3.7% . US equity returned 7.9% versus 11.5% for the S&P 500 (CAD$) index. Much of this detracted value was due to the participation in the US mid-cap and small cap sectors. These sectors underperformed the broader US equity market , however the two mandates with Wedge capital outperformed their respective benchmarks. Midcap by 1.4 % and Small cap by 2.8% . Canadian fixed income also outperformed for the 12 month period: 10.0% versus 9.7% for the Dex Bond Universe. The bond market posted positive returns over the period driven by increasing confidence in the U.S. recovery and a stabilization in Eurozone markets. There was a slight rise in government bond yields while corporate bond yields declined reflecting strong investor demand. The main contributor to performance was the significant overweight in corporate bonds. Security selection was also a positive contributor.

•Endowment Fund Policy Benchmark: 30% DEX Bond Universe + 20% S&P/TSX Composite + 25% S&P 500 ($CAD) + 20%

•12-month Total Gross Portfolio return of 3.4% versus Composite Benchmark returns of 2.9%. The chart below summarizes

the attribution of returns relative to the Benchmark. The selection effect measures the investment manager’s ability to select

securities within a given segment relative to a benchmark. The allocation effect indicates whether the overweighting or

underweighting of segments relative to a benchmark contributed positively or negatively to the overall portfolio return. The

combined effect is the Net Management Effect. The Chart below shows strong security selection by Canadian as well as

foreign managers (particularly Tweedy Browne) offset by weaker performance in US Equities .

Note : Emerging Market equity is combined with EAFE equity and shown as international equity. Cash return includes currency

hedging effect.
