| PART V, LINE 4 | NEHGS DESIGNATES ONLY A PORTION OF ITS CUMULATIVE INVESTMENT RETURN FOR SUPPORT OF OPERATIONS; THE REMAINDER IS RETAINED TO SUPPORT OPERATIONS OF FUTURE YEARS AND TO OFFSET POTENTIAL MARKET DECLINES. MASSACHUSETTS STATE LAW ALLOWS THE SOCIETY TO APPROPRIATE AS MUCH OF THE NET APPRECIATION AS IS PRUDENT CONSIDERING NEHGS' LONG AND SHORT-TERM NEEDS, PRESENT AND ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS, EXPECTED TOTAL RETURN ON ITS INVESTMENTS, PRICE LEVEL TRENDS, AND GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. UNDER NEHGS' SPENDING POLICY, 4.30 PERCENT OF THE THREE-YEAR AVERAGE OF THE FAIR VALUE OF THE INVESTMENTS (EXCLUDING INVESTMENTS DESIGNATED AS CURRENT ASSETS) AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH OF THE PREVIOUS THREE FISCAL YEARS IS APPROPRIATED TO SUPPORT OPERATIONS. IN THE EVENT OF A SIGNIFICANT MARKET DECLINE, NEHGS WILL CONSIDER ALL FACTORS RELEVANT TO THE STATED GOAL IN DETERMINING ANY CHANGE TO THE APPROPRIATION AS ALLOWED BY UPMIFA. NEHGS HAS AN INVESTMENT POLICY, WHICH COMBINED WITH THE SPENDING RATE, ATTEMPTS TO PROVIDE A PREDICTABLE STREAM OF RETURNS COMBINED WITH ASSET PROTECTION. ENDOWMENT ASSETS INCLUDE THOSE ASSETS RESTRICTED BY DONORS THAT NEHGS MUST HOLD IN PERPETUITY. UNDER NEHGS' INVESTMENT POLICY AND SPENDING RATE, BOTH APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS ARE INVESTED IN A MANNER THAT IS INTENDED TO PRODUCE AN INFLATION-ADJUSTED RETURN IN EXCESS OF THE SPENDING RATE OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. ACTUAL RETURNS IN ANY GIVEN YEAR MAY VARY. TO SATISFY ITS LONG-TERM RATE-OF-RETURN OBJECTIVES, NEHGS RELIES ON A TOTAL RETURN STRATEGY IN WHICH INVESTMENTS RETURNS ARE ACHIEVED THROUGH BOTH CAPITAL APPRECIATION (REALIZED AND UNREALIZED) AND CURRENT YIELD (INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS). |
