*Due to the market volatility of 2007 and 2008, the Lehman index (now Barclays) contained lower yielding treasury securities which had higher total return than our Fixed Fund. We were positioned for high quality income with less treasury securities; therefore our total returns were less.
**This Blended Benchmark Index includes Barclays Capital U.S. Government Inflation-Linked Bond Index and Barclays Capital U.S. Universal Index (excluding mortgage-backed securities). Past performance is not an indication of future results.
