    AUM-002 As of 6/30/08. Source: BGI. Assets under management BGI’s Alpha Tilts is an enhanced index strategy designed to outperform the S&P 500 index by 1-2% per year with an active risk of 2% or less. Alpha Tilts seeks to capture systematic return by exploiting market inefficiencies which are undiscovered or ignored by many investors, due to their subtlety, complexity, and size relative to the transaction costs that must be incurred to exploit them. The result is a diversified portfolio of large cap U.S. equities with many small overweight or underweight positions or “bets”, unlike the concentrated portfolios of traditional active managers. In addition, the Alpha Tilts strategy has been specifically designed to be style-neutral relative to the benchmark. Alpha is generated only through security selection, not through style, sector, or market timing bets. As a result of our portfolio optimization approach the portfolio demonstrates index-like risk characteristics with a higher expected return than the benchmark.
