Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees’ Pension Plan Table of ContentsInvestment Outlook1Market Environment2Executive Summary3Asset Allocation4Manager Pages 5 TabThe Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees’ Pension PlanDecember 31, 20121 " After broad rally in 2012, opportunistic trades are less compelling Most markets have recovered from pull back in 2011 Lack of good value across markets presents opportunity to revisit investment objectives and confirm long-term strategic allocations" Forward-looking expectations are lower after 2012 market rally Performance in credit and US equity markets lowers 5-7 year expectations across these asset categories Yields remain low as do sovereign bond return expectations Non-US equities have high risk but also higher return expectations" 30-year returns also lower for credit markets Broad based credit spread compression and low sovereign yields reduce long-term expectations for credit Equity asset classes less affected by rally and supported by higher inflation expectation over 30 years" Macroeconomic themes continue to weigh on marketsBackgroundThe Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees Pension Plan2 " Strong 2012 market returns lead to subdued expectations Without a fundamental shift in underlying economic drivers, favorable recent performance  robs from the future and lowers 5-7 year outlook across markets Markets have rallied based on policy announcements more than economic results Policy accommodation could provide further tailwind to markets in near-term " Valuation expansion is unlikely to be a large driver on its own as few markets look cheap" Potential for macro shock is elevated in the near term  Stimulative monetary policy in developed world creates a deceptively calm backdrop  US fiscal cliff, European misstep, China slow down, or Middle East conflict could send shocks across markets" Global growth outlook remains constrained as developed world lacks political will to truly address debt burden Pressure for fiscal tightening (European austerity, US fiscal cliff) could neutralize benefits of monetary stimulus Structural debt issues plus ancillary effects of money printing will extend deleveraging" Seeds of inflation planted but not yet watered Money printing has led to asset price inflation instead of inflation in the real economy Monetary easing creates long-term inflation threat, but muted credit growth limits near-term inflation pressureNEPC 2013 Capital Market ObservationsThe Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees Pension Plan3 " Focus on strategic allocations in a time with few tactical opportunities Confirm your policy objectives and investment goals Avoid stretching for higher returns through increased risk Be prepared to act if opportunities do present themselves" Position for a continuation of macro-driven themes Examine existing managers capabilities " Add to global asset allocation and top-down active strategies Use flexible active managers to implement allocations to policy-driven markets" Non-US equities have attractive valuations, but return premium reflects downside risk" Credit markets have recovered but liquidity has fallen, making market dynamics less stable" Use Risk Parity as a stable foundation of a diversified program Reconsider what constitutes a  core investment in this environment " No longer just stocks and bonds Risk Parity can be used as a liquid placeholder while tactical opportunities are limited" Continue building allocations in emerging markets and real assets Developing countries consistently demonstrate superior fundamentals to G7 markets Most investors remain vulnerable to higher inflation, with limited real assets exposure" Allocate to less liquid strategies with patience Distressed assets thesis is compelling but current opportunities are limited  Strategies providing capital to markets that have traditionally relied on banks are appealing with high income and relatively shorter time horizons Significant system stress remains in real estate market but conditions have improvedNEPC 2013 General Actions for ClientsThe Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees Pension Plan4 " Given the 2012 run-up in global equities& consider rebalancing back to target allocations" Given the expected low return environment Reassess the ability of your Fund to earn its assumed actuarial rate of return at prudent levels of risk " Both short term and long term" Plan to proactively communicate with non-trustee stakeholders on the potential impacts of a subdued-return environment Beneficiaries Policy Makers Media" Analyze your current and projected liquidity profile Given the attractiveness of less liquid strategies in relation to traditional asset classes& determine how much liquidity risk your Fund can assume" Continue to build a diversified and flexible fixed income portfolio& move away from a core (Barclays Aggregate) model Evaluate current positioning of investment grade and high yield credit" Consider complementary allocations to or policy allowances for more attractive risk-adjusted profiles (e.g., bank loans) EMD Local Currency remains attractive relative to Global Developed-Country Bonds" Higher yield, shorter duration, improving credit quality, potential for currency appreciationNEPC 2013 Focused Actions for Public

rebalancing as a chance to move back to strategic policy targets" Markets are much closer to fair value than a year ago Many asset classes can still offer reasonable returns through income and growth" Non-US equity valuations are attractive relative to history but discount may be appropriate given meaningful exposure to European uncertainty Important to utilize active management to capture opportunities in these areas" Liquid credit spreads compressed from late 2011 highs but overall market liquidity is now more limited Demand for yield has led to indiscriminate purchasing of new

low (0-3%)" Yields are generally lower Sovereign yields shifted lower in 2012 Credit spreads compressed Dividends lower with higher price levels" Cash rates, the starting point for returns, are pinned at 0%" Investors can still expect to earn a premium for taking capital market risk  But contribution to return from valuation expansion is likely to be more limited" In a difficult environment for savers, institutional investors do have some advantages Scale Time horizonExpected Returns Are Lower After Strong Performance in 2012The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees Pension Plan11 " Markets have been calm despite potential for negative macro-economic event" Political negotiations will continue in the US around the debt ceiling and potential spending cuts as increased taxes create a drag on growth" Europe now has a more credible plan  Forced austerity on periphery and anemic growth across the continent create challenging conditions" China appears to have avoided a hard landing but faces challenges  Economic rebalancing  from external to internal growth Leadership transition" Ongoing Middle East conflict (Syria) and rhetoric around broader tension (Israel/Gaza & Iran) remain major political and economic issuesExogenous Shocks Could Have Major Impact On MarketsSource: CBOE as of 11/30The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees Pension Plan12 Major Global Macroeconomic Risks Remain on HorizonThe Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees’ Pension Plan13 " Monetary accommodation has been tremendously powerful in boosting capital markets Impact on broader economy has been more limited" Inflation to the goods and services economy will react to drivers that remain subdued Credit growth  still muted as lenders limit credit access to highest quality borrowers Wage growth  remains low with unemployment stubbornly elevated" Near-term inflation potential stays fairly modest amidst global deleveraging" Long-term inflation pressures continue to build As economy improves and corrects imbalances, build up of loose monetary policy is likely to lead to higher inflation levelsInflation& Not YetSource: St. Louis Fed as of 9/30 Source:

Managers who do not remain in the upper half of their universe and lag their index over a rolling 3-year period for three consecutive quarters will be considered for placement on watch status. The table above has highlighted in pale red managers that do not meet those performance guidelines. “N/A” indicates that the manager either does not have three years of performance or an appropriate universe for comparison.In addition to the performance measures, other scenarios could lead to “watch” status. These scenarios include changes in strategy, change in organizational structure or personnel, compliance related issues, changes in MSD’s asset allocation, or any other issue that requires heightened review.49 Manager Executive SummaryDecember 31, 2012The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees’ Pension Plan50 Manager Executive SummaryDecember 31, 2012The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees’ Pension Plan51 Manager Executive SummaryDecember 31, 2012The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Employees’ Pension Plan52 Buford, Dickson, Harper & Sparrow•Gerald Sparrow is rejoining BDH&S as Chief Investment Officer.
