Review of 2008/2009 Market Crisis Actions





Determination of Collateral Deficiency

In September 2008, Northern Trust posted a collateral deficiency in certain constant-dollar NAV pools equal to the shortfall in the market-to-book ratio below 100.
This action helped ensure that the risk of loss was allocated equitably across all pool participants at a time of extreme market disruption.

Northern Trust did not immediately require clients to provide payment to their respective collateral pool. In fact, we stated that the remaining liabilities, after
accounting for realized losses, would be subject to potential future reversal, if improving conditions allowed.
Northern Trust’s Support to Clients

In October 2008, Northern Trust made a voluntary, one-time cash contribution of approximately $150 million to affected client accounts.

Beginning in October 2008, Northern Trust also voluntarily reduced its share of the securities lending fee split by 20% for a period of twelve months.

With these voluntary actions taken by Northern Trust, all clients in the impacted pools will find that their exposure to realized losses in their pool to date have been
largely or more than offset by the capital support and fee reduction measures offered by Northern Trust.
Flexible Risk Mitigation

Northern Trust introduced the staged withdrawal program to direct lending clients in September 2008. Clients electing the staged withdrawal were able to gradually
reduce their loan caps to limit the value of securities on loan and ultimately exit the pool without taking an interest in collateral. Upon exit, clients paid to their
respective collateral pool their full amount of collateral deficiency liabilities outstanding.

For indirect lending clients, Northern Trust Global Investments implemented a Twice-Monthly Program providing an opportunity for investors to reduce their
exposure to lending Common & Collective Funds
Enhanced Client Reporting Tools

Northern Trust launched the Securities Lending Reporting Block on Passport®, providing transparent, targeted and timely information to clients in an easy-to-use
dashboard format .

Client communications were expanded to include the Securities Lending Market Intelligence newsletter and periodic Market Update Call webcasts
Changes to Collateral Reinvestment Guidelines

In November 2008, Northern Trust outlined temporary, more conservative investment practices for all of the pools subject to the September 2008 collateral
deficiency determination.

In October 2009, Northern Trust formally implemented updated investment guidelines for all the Collateral Sections subject to a collateral deficiency determination

In general, the new guidelines are largely aligned with those governing money market funds subject to SEC Rule 2a-7 and designed to reflect an even more
conservative investment profile across multiple parameters

General Recent Observations and Trends
 Demand from the Borrower Community

Loan balances have remained relatively stable despite the general market sell-off related to industry-wide concerns over recent European sovereign debt issues.

Hedge fund outlook has grown more cautious due to ongoing market volatility and questions around the final form of financial regulation legislation.

Equity Markets
 Recent increase in market volatility has resulted in a short-term decline in trading activity.
 Coming to the close of the yield enhancement season. Trading activity has been robust with pricing levels slightly higher than in 2009.

Fixed Income Markets
 Strong demand and spreads for exposures in Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain due to price volatility, plus strong borrowing demand for German government
bonds as flight to quality affects liquidity in the market.
 Uncertainty of the Fed’s liquidity exit approach, EU sovereign debt issues, and regulatory environment make forecasting future demand challenging.

Evolving Regulatory Environment
 Recent expansion in short selling regulations across the Eurozone.
 The marketplace still awaits details of the form of US financial regulation legislation coming out of Washington.
 Market Drivers

Equity markets declined significantly in May and have since shown elevated volatility due to Eurozone issues and ongoing uncertainty about global financial
regulation.

The VIX (CBOE Volatility Index) rose 90%, resulting in increased short coverings as investors wish to be shielded from elevated levels of volatility.

General decline in hedge fund trading activity on the back of this uncertainty suggests a lack of conviction in the market.
 Spread Environment

Wide spreads remain for the most in-demand equity securities, particularly for yield enhancement trades and specials opportunities.

Recent increase in short-covering activities has led to reduced overall spread levels.

US Government debt spreads remain under pressure as interest rates remain low, while European Government debt spreads have widened as demand has recently
increased.

Collateral Reinvestment: General Current Observations & Trends




Short-term Fixed Income Markets

Trading environment has generally deteriorated  Short-term fixed income markets are not as liquid as they were a few months ago. Investors are reluctant to
lend money to European banks and are keeping exposure to banks domiciled in Greece, Italy, Ireland, Portugal, and Spain very short-term.

Short LIBOR rates have risen relative to Fed Funds in the past few months. As reflected by LIBOR changes, banks are more reluctant to lend to each other due
to concerns about industry-wide exposure to sovereign debt of European countries. Rise in LIBOR rates has caused interest rates on investments with credit
risk such as certificates of deposit, commercial paper, and floating rate notes to rise.
Liquidity

Liquidity premium Liquidity remains an expensive insurance policy to purchase with rates still low and Federal Reserve policy on hold.

Preserving Short-Term Liquidity Targeting enhanced overnight liquidity levels and maintaining high-quality, liquid positions. Short-term fixed income markets
are subject to volatility as events unfold in Europe.
Credit Quality

Monitoring all securities  Portfolio and risk management teams remain alert for opportunities to restructure, divest, or otherwise reduce exposure to securities
and issuers where appropriate.

Downgrades Observing fewer downgrades across corporate and asset-backed holdings as the economy improves.

Consumer strength High unemployment and the uncertain housing market remain negatives for legacy holdings across the Securities Lending program with
exposure to real estate.
Government Support

Initiatives to date appear to have successfully addressed some of the major liquidity/capital concerns.

Global government support remains in effect and provides a constructive backdrop for the overall market, even though some facilities have expired and others
are being utilized less than they were six months ago.

The exit strategy for government intervention programs is generally expected to be an orderly and lengthy process.

Credit Risk Management Structure
Security Approval Group (SAG):


Northern Trust has supplemented its credit risk management structure by establishing this independent risk management group with
a new risk manager to identify changes within the credit landscape.
Consists of four professionals from Credit Risk, Fixed Income Research and Credit Policy which must unanimously approve all new
issuers and limits.

Prior to the purchase of a new security into the portfolio, a credit analyst will present the asset to SAG for approval.

This provides an additional layer of credit review.
Credit Risk Management Committee (CRMC):



Primary group for setting credit policy and procedure in Northern Trust Global Investments (NTGI).
9 committee members: 7 from outside Fixed Income Research, 4 from outside NTGI. Risk management and credit policy both have
representatives.
CRMC sets overall policy governing short term funds, including reducing fund and day limits.
Risk Management of the Collateral Pools



21
In prior market updates, the Northern Trust team has addressed the apparent deteriorating performance of a small segment of assetbacked holdings, specifically residential mortgage-backed securities backed by subprime and Alt-A mortgages.
While the majority of assets in the collateral pools have benefited over the past several months from improving market conditions,
these subprime and Alt-A mortgage-backed securities have faced challenges as economic difficulties persist and homeowner
delinquencies rise. These positions represent less than 1% of the overall holdings of each of the cash collateral pools.
Our portfolio management and risk management professionals constantly look for opportunities to restructure, divest or otherwise
reduce exposure to certain portfolio holdings, where appropriate.
