  16. Disclaimer • Performance through 11/30/08. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. • Horizon Investment Services LLC, is registered with the SEC as an investment adviser. The firm manages equity, mutual fund, income, and balanced portfolios for U.S. investors. The composite performance results include all fully discretionary accounts for the strategies shown above managed by Horizon Investment Services and exclude any accounts with significant client-imposed investment restrictions. Accounts are added to the composite after their first full calendar month of investment performance. Accounts that have significant cash flows that total over 30% of assets are temporarily removed from the composite. Composite performance results are presented after brokerage commissions, reinvested income and advisory fees and are asset-weighted, time-weighted total return figures. Performance was reduced by the highest fee charged to any client employing these strategies for the periods under consideration. Actual fees may vary depending on fee schedule and portfolio size. Advisory fee schedules are available upon request or may be found in Part II of Horizon Investment Services’ Form ADV. • As of November 30, 2008, the Best Ideas Strategy composite included 95 accounts with $28.4 million in combined assets. In addition to large and mid-capitalization stocks, the Best Ideas Strategy contains small-capitalization stocks, which tend to be more volatile. The inception date of the composite was July 31, 2003. The comparative market index for the Best Ideas Strategy is a 50/50 blended performance of the Russell 1000 and Russell 2000 indexes, calculated by averaging the cumulative total returns of the two indexes for the periods presented. In our opinion, this blended index represents a fair approximation of the composition of the Best Ideas Strategy. The Russell 2000 index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of the smallest 2,000 companies in the Russell 3000 Index of the 3,000 largest U.S. companies in terms of market capitalization. The Russell 1000 index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of the largest 1,000 companies in the Russell 3000 index of the 3,000 largest U.S. companies in terms of market capitalization. The S&P 500 index is presented solely because it is a widely followed index. The S&P 500 index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of 500 large company stocks weighted by market capitalization. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
