THE SOCIETY HAS A POLICY OF APPROPRIATING FOR DISTRIBUTION EACH YEAR A PERCENTAGE OF INVESTED ASSETS COMPUTED ON A TRAILING 12-QUARTER QUARTERLY AVERAGE OF ITS ENDOWMENT ASSET MARKET VALUES. IN ESTABLISHING THIS POLICY, THE SOCIETY CONSIDERED THE LONG-TERM EXPECTED RETURNS ON ITS ENDOWMENT ASSETS. ACCORDINGLY, OVER THE LONG-TERM, THE SOCIETY EXPECTS THE SPENDING POLICY TO ALLOW ITS ENDOWMENT TO GROW AT A RATE IN EXCESS OF INFLATION. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE SOCIETY'S OBJECTIVE TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS. THE CUMULATIVE NET UNSPENT APPRECIATION ON INVESTMENTS WITH DONOR RESTRICTIONS IS ACCOUNTED FOR AS NET ASSETS WITH DONOR RESTRICTIONS AND TOGETHER WITH UNSPENT APPRECIATION ON UNRESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION, EXCEPT BY THE EXPRESS APPROPRIATION ACTION OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
