Appendix

Diversified Allocations - Figures 13.2 and 13.3:

The hypothetical historical returns were created with the benefit of hindsight using the percentage allocations shown in the appendix. Simulated performance results do not reflect actual trading and have inherent limitations. Please see additional disclosures. Any changes will have an impact on the hypothetical historical performance results, which could be material. Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations and no representation is being made that any investor will, or is likely to achieve, performance similar to that shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved. Portfolios are comprised of underlying indices.
