This approach allows donors and their investment advisors to maintain their professional relationships while furthering the donor's philanthropic goals. Minimums Fund size minimums vary based on the make-up of the investment portfolio. For portfolios holding traditional assets such as publicly traded equity and fixed-income securities, mutual funds and exchange traded funds, the minimum fund size is $3 million. Inclusion of alternative investments such as private equity and hedge funds will be considered on a case-by-case basis for a minimum fund size of $10 million. Approval Process The community foundation will work with the recommended advisor to establish an asset allocation that is a Iriate to the donor's • antmakin s and time horizon ent s The investment committee generally meets quarterly. Every effort will be made to evaluate proposals in a timely manner, however, evaluation and approval may take up to three months to complete. The advisor's proposed investment strategy should address the following points: • Qualifications and credentials of the advisor, team and firm. • Advisor's investment philosophy, approach and rebalancing process. • Proposed target asset allocation, policy ranges and performance benchmark. • Proposed investments for each asset class, including expenses, historical performance and proposed performance benchmarks. • Fees charged by the advisor and in total for the portfolio. • Sample investment management and custodial agreements. Fees Silicon Valley Community Foundation assesses support fees to cover the cost of administration and to continue its important work in our community. Fees provide the necessary resources to operate efficiently and effectively, ensuring fiscal responsibility in grant due diligence, donor and nonprofit education, research and other activities. A one-time setup fee of $1,000 is required to cover expenses associated with investment advisor due diligence and establishing new investment accounts. Each fund is charged 0.05% for investment oversight to help defray the cost of administration. Funds with balances below $2.5 million will be assessed a 1% investment oversight fee. One-twelfth of support and investment oversight fees are assessed monthly based on average fund balance. Please refer to the current schedule of Support Fees for additional information. 12.06.12 Page 1 of 10 EFTA_R1_00246320 EFTA01851907 Fund Balance Minimums Funds with balances under $1 million for six consecutive months will be transferred to the investment pools offered by the community foundation. Responsibilities All assets are under the sole control of the community foundation. As such, all investment decisions must be made by the community foundation. Investment performance will be reviewed quarterly by the community foundation's staff and investment committee. The investment advisor may be replaced at any time and for any reason, including but not limited to deviation from the terms of this policy, ethical or legal violations, performance which does not meet or exceed established benchmarks over a period of time, excessive fees or key staff changes. Investment Advisor Responsibilities The fund's investment advisor and underlying investment managers are held to the same high standards the community foundation employs for all its investment managers: 1. Following the Prudent Investors guidelines that arc widely used in the investment management industry. These include but are not limited to fiduciary standards described in the Uniform Prudent Investor Act (UPIA), the Uniformed Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA) and the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS) that are promulgated by the Investment Performance Council of the CFA Institute. 2. As fiduciaries, all managers are expected to uphold the highest ethical standards and to carry out their investment responsibilities in order to promote the best interest of Silicon Valley Community Foundation. 3. Immediately reporting any findings against the firm or its principals, either by the SEC or any other regulatory authority. In addition, any lawsuits brought against the firm or its principals related to the firm's business activities should also be immediately reported to the community foundation. 4. Preparing quarterly written statements, including actions taken in the portfolio and expected changes in the portfolio. 5. Directing proxies to the community foundation or its delegate as instructed. If left to the manager, all proxies should be voted to increase shareholder value unless directed by the community foundation to do otherwise. 6. Attending meetings with the community foundation staff, its consultant and investment committee as needed. 7. Adhering to the investment strategy and policy for which the advisor was hired. 8. Executing all transactions in the best interests of its clients. This usually involves obtaining the best net realized price for a purchase or a sale. It also includes using commissions to obtain research or other services that arc expected to enhance both the investment process and the returns. 12.06.12 Page 2 of 10 EFTA_R1_00246321 EFTA01851908 9.

Advisor Acknowledgement The undersigned investment advisor(s) to the fund at Silicon Valley Community Foundation acknowledges receipt and agreement with this policy and its appendices. Investment Advisor Date Investment Advisor Date 12.06.12 Page 3 of 10 EFTA_R1_00248322 EFTA01851909 Appendix A — Investment Guidelines Asset Allocation The community foundation believes asset allocation and regular rebalancing arc primary driven of consistent performance and that individually managed funds should follow an asset allocation strategy that is largely identical to that of other funds of similar size, time horizon, spending policy and risk profile. Investment advisors will propose an investment strategy that is appropriate to the size of the fund and aligned with the donor's philanthropic goals. The proposed strategy will employ a diversified mix of asset classes and investment styles. Portfolios will be monitored for consistent application of the investment strategy. Advisors are encouraged to use a format similar to the example below for proposing the investment strategy and allocation, the details of which will vary based on fund size, donor objectives and advisor strategy. Example Proposal Format Asset Class Investment Benchmark Allocation Target Range Fee Structure Total Fixed Income $ 3,000,000 30% 20-40% U.S. name benchmark $ 2,000,000 20% 15-40% mngd acct 0.80% Global name benchmark $ 1.000.000 10% 0-20% mutual hind 0.92% U.S. Equities $ 4,700,000 47% 4040% Large Cap name benchmark $ 2,500,000 25% 20-30% mngd acct 1.00% Mid Cap name benchmark $ 1,300,000 13% 10-20% mngd acet 1.00% Small Cap name benchmark $ 900.000 9% 5-15% mngd acct 1.00% Non-U.S. Equities $ 2,000,000 20% 10-30% Developed Markets name benchmark $ 1,500,000 15% 10-20% mngd acct 1.00% Emerging Markets name benchmark $ 500,000 5% 0-10% mutual hind 1.00% Altema0velOther $ 300,000 3% 0-5% strategy name name benchmark $ 300,000 3% ETF 0.75% name benchmark S 0% TOTAL $ 10,000,000 100% Total Expenses: 0.94% Performance Reporting The community foundation will compute and evaluate investment performance on a time weighted basis, net of fees, against a "market benchmark" that best approximates the portfolio's exposure to risk using a simple mix of stocks and bonds, and against a "composite benchmark" that is comprised of various indices weighted by the target allocation to each asset class represented in the portfolio. Investment advisors should use the table below to indicate proposed benchmark weightings. The investment advisor will independently report performance at least quarterly, on a time weighted basis and net of fees, against the same or similarly constructed benchmarks. The advisor may utilize additional benchmarks. 12.06.12 Page 4 of l0 EFTA_R1_00246323 EFTA01851910 Performance Benchmarks Investment advisors should use the following table to indicate the proposed benchmark weightings. 1.

The guidelines below apply to separate accounts managed by the advisor or by managers selected by the advisor to the extent that a particular asset class is included in the portfolio. For mutual funds and commingled funds, restrictions are established by the offering documents for each investment. I. Domestic Equity (Large/Mid/Small Capitalization) • The domestic equity portfolio will be diversified according to economic sector, industry, number of holdings and other investment characteristics. However, it is recognized that any actively managed portfolio will not be as diversified as the market. To produce overall diversification, equity managers will be selected to employ different management strategies, which together achieve the desired degree of diversification. • Domestic equity managers are permitted to hold up to 10 percent (10%) of the portfolio in American Depository Receipts ("ADRs") or foreign domiciled companies whose equity securities arc traded in U.S. markets. • No more than seven percent (7%) at cost or 10 percent (10%) at market of the manager's portfolio may be held in the securities of a single issuer. • The community foundation does not apply strict rules to define small, middle or large capitalization stocks. However, it is expected that the weighted average market capitalization of each managers' portfolio will be within 25 percent (25%) of their primary market benchmark. • Short selling of securities is prohibited. • Derivative instruments such as financial futures and options may not be used without the prior approval of the community foundation. • A manager may only deviate from these guidelines with the advance permission of the community foundation. 2. International Equity (Developed and Emerging) • The following definitions should be used to distinguish between developed and emerging markets securities: International Developed Equity Listed equity securities traded on developed non- U.S. markets. Developed markets are defined as those included in Morgan Stanley's SAFE index plus Canada. Emerging Markets Equity): Listed equity securities traded on emerging non-U.S. markets. Emerging markets are defined as any market not included in Morgan Stanley's EAFE index plus Canada. 12.06.12 Page 6 of 10 EFTA R1_00246325 EFTA01851912 • 'The portfolio will be diversified according to economic sector, industry, number of holdings and other investment characteristics. However, it is recognized that any actively managed portfolio will not be as diversified as the market. To produce overall diversification, equity managers will be selected to employ different management strategies, which together achieve the desired degree of diversification. • For managers who arc hired to invest in developed markets, securities within the portfolio must be held in a minimum of three countries at all times with no more than 30 percent (30%) of the portfolio to be held in emerging markets countries. For managers hired to invest in emerging markets, securities within the portfolio must be held in a minimum of three countries at all times. • No more than seven percent (7%) at cost or 10 percent (10%) at market of the portfolio may be held in the securities of a single issuer. • Short selling of securities is prohibited. • Currency exposure may be hedged back to the U.S. dollar.

'These investments will be made via limited partnerships and commingled funds. Therefore, restrictions are established by the offering documents for each investment. Please refer to Exhibit C for hedge funds specifically. 4. U.S. Fixed Income • The duration of the portfolio should be within 25 percent (25%) of the duration of the manager's market benchmark. • The portfolio may invest in the following classes of fixed income securities: Bonds or notes issued by the U.S. Government or a U.S. Government Agency backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government Mortgage-backed securities Corporate bonds issued in the U.S. and denominated in U.S. dollars Asset-backed securities Non-U.S. bonds or notes issued by either foreign governments or corporations, subject to limitations noted below. • Investment grade bond managers are expected to maintain an average quality rating for their portfolio that does not fall below an S&P rating of AA-.

For securities not rated by S&P, classification by other major ratings 12.06.12 Page 7 of 10 EFTA_R1_00246326 EFTA01851913 agencies will be used. If securities are un-rated, the Foundation will assess risk and compliance with this policy based on the portfolio's strategy. For the purpose of calculating average quality ratings, securities issued or fully backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government shall be considered AAA. • For investment grade managers, up to 20 percent (20%) of the portfolio's duration weight may be held in below investment grade securities. • Up to 25 percent (25%) of the portfolio's duration weight may be held in the securities of foreign issuers.

This restriction does not apply to securities issued by the U.S. Government or a U.S. Government Agency backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. • Derivative instruments may be utilized by the manager in order to obtain more efficient exposure to a specific type of security. However, at no time may derivative instruments be used to leverage the portfolio. In addition, it is expected that a manager will have thoroughly tested the behavior of the derivative instrument under a variety of market conditions before purchasing the instrument for the portfolio. 5. Global Fixed Income • The duration of the portfolio should be within 25 percent (25%) of the duration of the manager's market benchmark. • The portfolio may invest in the following classes of fixed income securities issued by U.S. or non-U.S. entities: Government bonds or notes Mortgage-backed securities Corporate bonds issued in the U.S. and denominated in U.S. dollars Asset-backed securities • The manager is expected to maintain a weighted average quality rating for the portfolio that does not fall below an S&P rating of AA-.

However, at no time may derivative instruments be used to leverage the portfolio. In addition, it is expected that a manager will have thoroughly tested the behavior of the derivative instrument under a variety of market conditions before purchasing the instrument for the portfolio. 6. Cash and Equivalents • A key objective for cash investments is to maintain price stability at all times although this is not guaranteed. • The weighted average maturity of the money market securities segment of the portfolio will generally be less than or equal to 90 days. Certificate of Deposits will be purchased using a laddered approach to maturities which could involve the use of longer maturities, although this portfolio will be structured to maintain adequate liquidity for the pool as a whole. • Within the money market securities segment, the portfolio will generally be invested in money market securities that are in the highest ratings categories for short-term instruments. Furthermore, the portfolio may invest in the following: ▪ Obligations of the U.S. Government (including its agencies and instrumentalities) Short-term corporate debt securities of domestic and foreign corporations ▪ Obligations of domestic and foreign commercial banks, savings banks, and savings and loan associations ▪ Commercial paper 12.06.12 Page 9 of 10 EFTA_R1_00246328 EFTA01851915 Appendix C - Alternative Investment Guidelines Alternative investments include private equity, real estate, commodities and hedge funds.

Proposed investments in alternative asset classes will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Hedge Fund Guidelines • No more than 20 percent (20%) of the donor's fund may be invested in hedge funds. • Fees will not exceed 2% plus 20% of the profits for individual hedge funds. • Fees will not exceed 1%, inclusive of any expected carry, for hedge fund-of-funds. • The hedge fund portfolio must be sufficiently diversified. For example, a minimum of two fund- of-funds or four individual fund managers with different investment strategies is preferable. Proper diversification is also dependent on the size of the allocation within the overall portfolio with larger manager counts needed for larger allocation sizes. • Historical performance of the fund must be at least 200 basis points per annum ahead of the HFRI Fund of Funds Index over multiple time periods—five years minimum. • Fund-of-funds managers may not offer their own hedge funds, provide service of any kind to hedge fund managers in the portfolio, or accept compensation of any kind from hedge fund managers, thereby avoiding conflicts of interest. This restriction effectively eliminates most investment bank offered funds due to their prime brokerage businesses. • Fund managers must supply the community foundation with monthly statements summarizing performance, investments and activity. • Fund-of-funds will not use leverage at the fund-of-funds level. • Fund-of-funds managers will limit total assets to a reasonable level (e.g., under $5 billion). • Lockup periods will not exceed 12 months. 12.06.12 Page 10 of 10 EFTA_R1_00246329 EFTA01851916 Advised Fund Agreement Type of Fund Silicon Valley Community Foundation O Establish a New Fund O Donor Advised www.siliconvalleycf.org O Update Fund Information O Committee Advised O Memorial O Scholarship: O Donor Involved O Foundation Managed Name of Fund e.g..
