Each ClearAM Model Portfolio and its returns are furnished for illustration purposes only. It is not intended as investment advice nor is it a solicitation or offer to transact in the securities listed. For Model Portfolios, past performance is not indicative of future returns. Back tested performance is hypothetical (it does not reflect trading in actual accounts) and is provided for informational purposes to indicate historical performance had the Model Portfolios been available over the relevant period. ClearAM did not offer any Model Portfolios until September 2004. Prior to that time, ClearAM did not manage client assets or offer any other services.

PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO INDICATION OF FUTURE RESULTS.

Accordingly, simulated Model Portfolio returns are not necessarily indicative of the returns that an actual Advised Client account or any Customer would have achieved.

The returns in this model reflect an advised account since inception with all dividends reinvested and our highest wrap fee (2%) deducted, with no changes made to the account and are not necessarily indicative of the returns that an actual Advised Client account or any Customer would have achieved unless the account was invested on the inception date of the applicable Model Portfolio.

Returns on the S&P-500 Index, S&P/BARRA 500 Growth Index, S&P/BARRA 500 Value Index, S&P/BARRA 400 Growth Index, S&P/BARRA 400 Value Index, S&P/BARRA 600 Growth Index, S&P/BARRA 600 Value Index or other identified index ("Benchmarks") are also calculated as noted above for actual returns, but for Benchmark returns calculated through inception and back testing periods, does not include dividend reinvestments. Trading costs, fees and taxes are not included in any Benchmark returns. See for further information regarding the limitations of back tested performance data of the Model Portfolios.
