INVESTMENT GUIDELINESPortfolio Guidelines
The Portfolio shall be equity securities of companies doing business in the United States. It is expected that the Portfolio will be fully invested (<5% cash) at all times. Equity securities shall be restricted to those issues listed on the New York, American, NASDAQ, or other nationally recognized United States stock exchanges.
The Board recognizes Managers are active managers investing in a universe of securities that resembles the Russell 2000 Growth Index. Managers will adjust their Portfolio on an ongoing basis to attempt to outperform the investment results of the Russell 2000 Growth Index.
Managers shall not use derivatives within the Portfolio without the expressed written consent of the Plan. If Managers elect to use derivatives as part of their investment strategy, the Plan requires that Managers provide written documentation of the rationale for using such instruments. Use of derivatives for speculation is prohibited. Only exchange-traded derivatives will be utilized.
For prudent diversification, no more than 5% of the lesser of cost or market value of the Portfolio shall be invested in any one issue, unless that issue represents more than 5% of the Russell 2000 Growth Index. No issue shall be purchased in the Portfolio if more than 10% of the outstanding shares of that company are held by Managers in the total of all of its accounts.
The Manager shall invest in securities specifically authorized in these written guidelines. Unauthorized investments include foreign securities listed and traded on U.S. exchanges, including American Depository Receipts (ADRs). Securities of all foreign companies, except for Benefit Driven Incorporations (BDIs) included in the Russell Indexes, are unauthorized. Additional unauthorized investments include short sales, futures, direct investment in raw commodities, and the use of non-approved derivative securities (i.e. equity futures and forward contracts), and/or the purchase of securities on margin.
Portfolio Characteristics
It is expected that the Portfolio's weighted average price/earnings ratio on a 12-month trailing basis in general will be no less than 2/3rds of the market as represented by Russell 2000 Growth Index.
It is expected that the Portfolio’s weighted average dividend yield on a quarterly basis will be no greater than 1.5x of the market as represented by the Russell 2000 Growth Index.
It is expected that the Portfolio's market sensitivity (beta) should be no less than 0.80 and no greater than 1.3 versus the Russell 2000 Growth Index on a rolling 24-month basis, using monthly holdings data.
It is expected that the Portfolio’s weighted average market capitalization should be no less than $400 million.
It is expected that the Portfolio’s performance correlation (R-Squared) to the Russell 2000 Growth Index should not be less than 0.70.

EQUITY MARKET OVERVIEW As of April 30, 2011
Economic Cycle Backdrop
The Fed has maintained an accommodative stance since the financial crisis. Money supply has grown significantly but the velocity of money has remained low as households have paid down debt and increased their savings rate. While the unemployment level remains high, the worst of the layoffs are behind the U.S. and new jobless claims have improved significantly. The stock market has responded to the improvements, economic leading indicators have followed historic recovery patterns, and corporate earnings have rebounded sharply. While the rebound in economic growth is below the past few recoveries, U.S. companies continue to control cost and are benefiting from growth in opportunities abroad. We expect further increases in corporate earnings to drive higher equity prices.
Current Economic Conditions
U.S. GDP growth slowed to a 1.8% annual rate in the first quarter, well below the fourth quarter’s 3.1% pace, as exports expanded less rapidly, consumer purchasing slowed in the wake of higher gas and food prices, and budget troubles crimped state and local government spending. Manufacturing remains a bright spot as March durable goods orders rose 2.5% and exceeded views. Core capital goods orders, a proxy for business investment, climbed 3.7% during the month. While the ISM manufacturing index slipped to 60.4 in April from 61.2 in March, it remains at a very strong level. The decline in the dollar is clearly helping U.S. exports in general, and manufacturing in particular. Interesting to note, U.S. manufacturing has become quite competitive outside this benefit. According to analysis by ISI Group, U.S. manufacturing industrial production has risen 120% since 1978 while manufacturing employment has declined 40%. There has, however, been a slowing in the rate of growth in other areas of the economy, and this is reflected in the ISM service index’s sharp drop in April from March. Most economists expect this slowdown to be transitory, and we hope they are correct.
Equities versus Bonds
The Fed’s actions have started to increase the rate of inflation, however core inflation still remains low which favors equities. Equity yields remain favorable relative to high yield bonds and investors are responding by allocating more towards equities than bonds for the first time in three years.
Please refer to charts in Section G for additional information.
14
Small Cap vs Large Cap
Small cap equities have out performed large cap equities off the bottom of March 2009, however, valuations of small caps are not excessive by any metric. Additionally, net margins remain below peaks levels for small cap companies while large cap companies are operating near peak margin levels.
Most expensive stocks are outperforming
The most expensive stocks based upon trailing PE ratios are leading the market higher. For the Russell 2000 Growth, the most expensive 20% of stocks were up 38.7% in Year 2010 versus the benchmark’s rise of 29.1% and are up 17.8% YTD 2011 through April 30th versus the benchmark up 13.2%.
Frontier Small Cap Growth Portfolio YTD
As of April 30, the portfolio slightly lags the Russell 2000 Growth. Producer durables, a sector we are overweight, was the strongest contributor to relative performance in our portfolios. Our return of 17% exceeded the 9% gain of the index. The sector’s positive results were led by the 55% advance in MasTec, a diversified specialty contracting company. This gain built on the 41% return the stock posted in the fourth quarter of 2010. The company again reported very strong earnings results that exceeded consensus expectations and its newest division, EC Source, won a $230 million electrical transmission contract. Filtration company, Pall, rose 18% and was also a strong contributor to sector outperformance. Our second highest contributing sector was financial services, where we are also overweight relative to the Russell 2000 Growth. Our 13% return in financials exceeded the 12% return of the benchmark. Our long term holdings in brokerage firm Raymond James, up 15%, and asset manager Waddell & Reed, up 16%, were the two most significant contributors within the sector.
Although four of our top ten contributing stocks were technology related, this sector was one of our worst relative performing sector with our 13% return trailing the 17% rise in the index. The top ten weighted technology stocks in the Russell 2000 Growth had a weighted return of 31% during the first quarter, yet trade at eight times revenues and fifty five times consensus 2012 earnings expectations. Ariba, a business commerce software company, is our best technology stock YTD, up 48%, while VeriFone was our second best stock, up 42%. The largest drag in the sector was Tessera Technologies down 11%. While Tessera posted strong fourth quarter results, the stock dropped sharply after management announced that two smaller customers stopped paying royalties for Tessera's intellectual property in semiconductor manufacturing. Tessera has filed lawsuits against both companies as it believes they are in violation of their contracts. We remain very constructive on the stock due to its extremely low valuation and future growth drivers. The company has over half of its market capitalization in net cash and should grow its cash balance by 30% over the next twenty four months without payments from the two aforementioned customers. Additionally, our 3% return in consumer discretionary, a sector we remain underweight, lagged the 4% gain of the Russell 2000 Growth. Consumer electronics retailer Hhgregg, down 36%, had disappointing holiday sales and was our largest detractor in the sector. Commercial truck axle manufacturer Meritor, down 21%, lowered earnings guidance, despite higher sales projections, due to elevated steel costs and was the second worst performer within consumer discretionary. Lastly, health care detracted from results relative to the Russell 2000 Growth, but solely because we are underweight compared to the index. Our 11% return exceeded the 7% gain of the benchmark.

NOMINAL: Interest rates are low and above average PEs are to be expected. Earnings are also growing at above average rates, justifying higher valuation.
RELATIVE: The Internet Bubble, which drove S&P 500 valuation to over 30X is skewing this ’89 to present chart. So long as real rates are low, small-caps will have upward relative valuation pressure. This is a neutral factor in small vs. large.

NOMINAL: Roughly 10% below ‘03 – ’06 period and still below ‘96. Not cheap but well off the highs.
RELATIVE: Much like the nominal levels, neither cheap nor dear. This is a neutral factor in small vs. large.

DISCLOSURE
Frontier has prepared and presented this report in compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS®).
a. Frontier refers to Frontier Capital Management Company, LLC and includes all fee- paying, discretionary individually managed accounts, wrap-fee accounts and mutual funds sub-advised by Frontier. Frontier is an affiliate of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc.
b. Frontier has been verified for the periods January 1, 1993 to December 31, 2007 by Wolf & Company, P.C. A copy of the verification report is available upon request. Returns prior to 1993 are not in compliance with GIPS® standards because they may not meet all of GIPS® calculation requirements. A complete list and description of the firm’s composites and performance results are available upon request.
c. Inception date and composite creation date: Frontier Small Cap Growth: January 1, 1985. Benchmark: Russell 2000 Growth. Russell indices are unmanaged and their results include income, but do not include fees, commissions or other expenses.
d. Frontier Small Cap Growth composite portfolios include investments in companies with earnings growth expectations in excess of that of the broad market over a several year period and with a market capitalization within the range of companies in the Russell 2000® Index at the time of initial purchase. The Russell 2000® Growth Index measures the performance of the Russell 2000 companies with higher price-to- book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.
e. Securities transactions are accounted for on trade date and accrual accounting is utilized.
f. Valuations and performance results are computed and stated in U.S. Dollars.g. Gross returns were calculated on a total return basis, including all dividends and
interest, accrued income, realized and unrealized gains or losses, and are net of all brokerage commissions, execution costs, without provision for federal or state income taxes. Gross-of-fees returns are presented before management fees. Cash and equivalents are included in performance returns. Actual fees are negotiable and may vary depending on account type and portfolio size.
h. The monthly returns of the composite combine the individual accounts’ returns (calculated on a time-weighted rate of return which is revaluated whenever cash flows exceed 10% of the account's value) by asset-weighting each account’s asset value as of the beginning of the month. Quarterly and yearly returns are calculated by geometrically linking the monthly and quarterly returns, respectively. Additional information regarding policies for calculating and reporting returns is available upon request.
i. The composite includes all actual, fee-paying, discretionary accounts, with comparable investment objectives and risks.
j. Composite dispersion is computed using the asset-weighted standard deviation of all accounts that were included in the composite for the entire year. Dispersion is not considered meaningful and is not presented when there are less than five accounts included in the composite for the entire year.
k. The results for individual accounts or for different periods may vary. Other performance calculation methods might produce different results. Investors should not rely on prior performance as a reliable indication of future performance.
