Under terms of this legislation, legal investment options include: 1. obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities; 2. direct obligations of the State of Texas or its agencies; 3. other obligations, the principal and interest of which are unconditionally guaranteed or insured by the State of Texas or the United States; obligations of states, agencies, counties, cities, and other political subdivisions of any state having been rated as to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment rating firm and having received a rating of not less than "A" or its equivalent; 5. certificates of deposit issued by a state or national bank, savings bank, or state or federal credit union domiciled in this state that are: a) guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or its successor, or b) secured by obligations that are described by subdivisions 1-4 of this subsection, and that have a market value of not less than the principal amount of the certificates; UADOC3XINVEST~INVST199. DOC 2 City of University Park, Texas Investment Policy -- 01/20/99 o o fully collateralized direct repurchase agreements having a defined termination date, secured by obligations described by subdivision 1 of this subsection, pledged to the City, held in the City's name and deposited at the time the investment is made with the City or with a third party selected and approved by the City, and placed through a primary government securities dealer, as defined by the Federal Reserve, or a financial institution doing business in this state; and, eligible investment pools if the City Council, by rule, order, ordinance, or resolution, as appropriate, authorizes investment in the particular pool. The City Council has approved the Texas Local Government Investment Pool ("TexPool"), administered by the Texas State Comptroller; the LoCal Government Investment Cooperative ("LOGIC"), administered by Southwest Securities Group, Inc.; and the Lone Star Investment Pool ("Lone Star"), administered by the Texas Association of School Boards. Eligible investment pools must meet the legal requirements of the PFIA. mutual funds that meet the following requirements: (a) A no-load money market mutual fund must: (1) be registered with and regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission; (2) provide the investing entity with a prospectus and other information required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. Section 78a et seq.) or the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. Section 80a-1 et seq.); (3) have a dollar-weighted average stated maturity of 90 days or fewer; and (4) include in its investment objectives the maintenance of a stable net asset value of $1 for each share.

UADOCS~INVEST~INVST199. DOC City of University Park, Texas Investment Policy -- 01/20/99 IV. INVESTMENT STRATEGIES Ae Maturity and liquidity The investments purchased under the provisions of this Investment Policy shall be managed to maintain liquidity for meeting the City's needs for cash and to limit potential market risks in periods of rising interest rates which depress the market value of securities. As a general guideline, maturity of securities should not exceed more than two years for cash management purposes, with the optimum weighed average maturity of less than one year. Investments in securities of a longer maturity than two years are considered prudent for funds maintained for capital construction and debt service funds, if necessary to meet projected disbursement schedules. Be Benchmark rate of return As a general guideline, the City of University Park cash management portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly meeting the average return on three-month U. S. Treasury Bills, or the average rate of 90-day Certificates of Deposit. These indices are considered benchmarks for risk-free investment transactions and therefore comprise a standard for the portfolio's rate of return. Additional benchmarks may be developed and used as a comparative performance measure for the portfolio. The investment program shall seek to augment rates of return above this threshold, consistent with legal restrictions and prudent investment principles. In a diversified portfolio, measured losses are inevitable and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio. The objective in investment of construction funds is at least to match inflation increases in construction costs. V. AUTHORIZED DEPOSITORIES, DEALERS, AND INVESTMENTS Ae Eligible depositories All state and national banks located in the State of Texas, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The financial condition of the bank shall be considered prior to establishing any accounts with that bank. The City shall subscribe to a bank rating service to obtain timely information. The Finance Advisory Committee shall review the bids submitted by depository candidates and make a recommendation to the City Council for final approval. B. Eligible securities dealers 1. Securities dealers and banks which are the approved and designated dealers of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, i.e., "Primary Dealers." UADOCSXlNVESTxlNVST199. DOC 4 City of University Park, Texas Investment Policy -- 01/20/99 Securities dealers and banks which are not designated as "Primary Dealers" but are approved individually by the City of University Park City Council. The governing body, upon recommendation by the designated investment committee (the Finance Advisory Committee) of the City, shall at least annually, review, revise, and adopt a list of qualified brokers that are authorized to engage in investment transactions with the City. Any vendor with whom the City conducts investment transactions, including brokers, pools, funds, and banks, must receive and review the City's Policy and provide a certificate with acceptable language that the policy will be followed. The current Depository Bank is approved as an eligible securities dealer for the City's investments, as are the following broker-dealers: a. First Tennessee Bank, N.A. - Capital Markets 3.

Eligible investments PFIA investments Investments authorized by the Public Funds Investment Act and listed in Section III of this Policy ("Statutory Guidelines"). e Delivery versus payment All securities shall be purchased on a delivery-versus-payment basis through a third- party safekeeping account, or the security shall be held in the name of the City or held on behalf of the City. The tmstee's records shall assure the notation of the City's ownership of or explicit claim on the securities. The City shall authorize the release of its funds only after it has received notification from the trustee that a purchased Security has been received in the City's trustee account. This notification may be oral, but shall be followed up in writing with the original safekeeping receipt within twenty-four hours. ge Repurchase agreements collateral Repurchase agreement collateral shall be perfected and delivered to an unaffiliated third-party safekeeping account. Repurchase agreements shall be collateralized at a minimum of 102 percent of the purchase price of the repurchase agreement and marked-to-market on a weekly basis. Collateral provided must be those securities otherwise authorized by state statutes for outright purchases. Collateral may be substituted only with the oral authorization of an Investment Officer, followed by written confirmations within twenty-four hours. The City considers repurchase agreements to be simultaneous purchases and sales of securities as outlined in the U ADOCS~INVEST~INVSTI 99. DOC City of University Park, Texas Investment Policy -- 01/20/99 Master Repurchase Agreement and not as collateralized loans. However, the underlying securities may be referred to as "Collateral." o Certificates of deposit collateral All time certificates of deposit or savings account deposits must be insured to the level of $100,000 through the FDIC. Investment in eligible pooled Certificate of Deposit programs (PAC's) is authorized under this section. All deposits in excess of $100,000 shall be collateralized by those securities otherwise authorized by state statutes for outright purchases, and deposited into an unaffiliated third-party safekeeping institution with collateral held in the City's name. All deposits will be collateralized at a minimum of 102 percent of the purchase price and marked-to- market on a monthly basis. Collateral may be substituted only with the oral authorization of an Investment Officer, followed by written confirmations within twenty-four hours. The City shall take all prudent and necessary steps to assure the solvency of the financial institution and the adequacy of collateral for deposits in excess of $100,000, with interest rates sufficient to warrant investment. Investment pools Investment pools which meet the eligibility requirements of the Public Funds Investment Act and which the Council has specifically approved for City investments. VI. ALLOCATION OF ASSETS Diversification of investments as to investment type and term to maturity serves to reduce both market risk and interest rate uncertainty. Asset allocation shall be as follows: Max. 1. U.S. Government Treasury Securities 95% 2. U.S. Government Agency Securities 80% 3. Repurchase Agreements 20% 4. Bank Certificates of Deposit 90% 5. Local government investment pools 80% 6. Mutual funds 25% VII. HIGHEST YIELD REQUIREMENT The City's funds shall be invested in instruments or accounts that yield the highest possible rate of return while providing the desired maturity schedule, level of liquidity, and necessary protection of principal as required by these policies and State law. All investments shall be made in accordance with the City's contract for banking service or with approved broker-dealers. UADOCS'xlNVEST~INVST199. DOC City of University Park, Texas Investment Policy -- 01/20/99 VIII. BIDDING REQUIREMENTS As prescribed by State statutes, the City shall solicit bids prior to the purchase of any investment instrument. In situations where the price of a security will not differ among eligible broker- dealers, the competitive bidding requirement may be waived. It is the Investment Officers' responsibility to determine prudent maturity and liquidity, and to assess the potential for market gains or losses caused by fluctuating interest rates during the term of the investment. IX. POOLING OF ASSETS To maximize the effective investment of assets, all funds needed for general obligations may be pooled into one account for investment purposes. The income derived from this account will be distributed to the various funds based on their average balances on a periodic basis. Proceeds of bond issues shall not be pooled with other assets of the City, but shall be maintained in the fund issuing the bonds with interest earnings on these invested proceeds recorded directly to that fund. X. STANDARD OF ETHICS Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment function, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees and Investment Officers shall disclose to the City Manager and governing body any material financial interests in financial institutions that conduct business with the City of University Park and shall further disclose any large personal financial or investment positions that could be related to the performance of the City's portfolio. Employees and Investment Officers shall subordinate their personal investment transactions to those of this jurisdiction, particularly with regard to the timing of purchases and sales. XI. REPORTING Quarterly reports Not less than quarterly, the Investment Officers shall prepare and submit to the City Council a written report outlining the City's investment transactions for the preceding reporting period and describing the investment position of the City as of the date of the report. The report will be signed by each Investment Officer and will comply with Public Funds Investment Act requirements for reporting beginning and ending book and market values and maturity dates of securities. In addition, the report will state the compliance of the investment portfolio with the City's investment policies and state law. The quarterly UADOCS',INVESIXlNVST199. DOC 7 City of University Park, Texas Investment Policy -- 01/20/99 report must also contain a summary statement, prepared in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles for each fund group, and include fully accrued interest for the reporting period. Special reports, in addition to the required quarterly report, will be provided at the request of the City Council or the Finance Committee. Be Pricing methods The City shall obtain market prices for securities in its portfolio from reputable and independent sources, including: financial publications, such as the Wall Street Journal; established financial institutions providing portfolio management/accounting services, such as NationsBank or First Tennessee; or established investment pricing services, such as Tracs or Evare. XII. AUDITING State and local laws require an annual audit of the financial records of the City. That audit will include a review of all investment activity for the year to review compliance with these investment procedures. Included in the audit review will also be a review of internal controls regarding investment of City funds and appropriate investment documentation. Annual audit procedures will also include verification of collateral held by the City for both bank deposits in excess of FDIC insurance and repurchase agreement transactions. As required by the PFIA, an independent auditor must formally review the quarterly investment reports that are prepared to comply with the PFIA. This review should be performed annually and the results reported to the governing body. XIII.

C:lwlndowsl TEMPIDraft Policy Version 6 August 200Ldoc I SECTION 2 INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES _City of University Parl~ Texas - Investment Policy 2. INVESTMENT OILIECTIVES The City shall manage and invest its cash with four objectives, listed in order of priority: Preservation and Safety of Principal; Liquidity; Yield; and Prudence. All investments shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with State and Local Law. The City shall maintain a comprehensive cash management program that includes the prudent investment of available cash. Cash management is defined as the process of managing monies in order to increase cash availability and interest earnings on short- term investment of idle cash. 1. Preservation and Safety of Principal The primary objective of City investment activity is the preservation of principal in the overall portfolio. Each investment transaction shall be conducted in a manner designed to avoid principal losses, whether they are from securities defaults or erosion of market value. The manner in which the City ensures safety of principal is presented in Section 4.2, "Ensuring Safety of Principal." .,.- .~ 2. Maintenance of Adequate Liquidity The City investment portfolio shall be structured such that the City is able to meet all obligations in a timely manner. Maintenance of adequate liquidity is described in Section 4.3, "Ensuring Liquidity." 3. Return on Investments Consistent with State law, the City shall seek to optimize return on investments within the constraints of safety and liquidity. Investments (excluding assets managed under separate investment programs, such as in arbitrage restrictive programs) shall be made in permitted obligations at yields equal to or greater than the bond equivalent yield on United States Treasury obligations of comparable maturity. Other appropriate performance measures will be established by the Investment Committee. Specific policies regarding investment rote of return are presented in Section 4.4, "Achieving Investment Return Objectives." For bond issues to which Federal yield or arbitrage restrictions apply, the primary objectives shall be to obtain satisfactory market yields and to minimize the costs associated with investment of such fimds. C:lwindowsl TEMPtDreft Policy Version 6 August 200 Ldoc 2 .City of University Parl~ Texas - Investment Policy, 4. Prudence and Ethical Standards The standard of prudence used by the City shall be the "prudent person nde" and shall be applied in the context of managing the overall portfolio within the applicable legal constraints. The prudent person rule is restated below: "Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence would exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speeulation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived." In determining whether the Investment Officer(s) or Investment Advisor under contract has exercised prudence with respect to an investment decision, the determination shall be made taking into consideration the investment of all funds over which the Officer/Advisor had responsibility rather than a consideration as to the prudence of a single investment, and whether the investment decision was consistent with the written Investment Policy of the City. ' The Investment Officers, acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence, shall not be held personally responsible for a specific security's credit risk or market price changes, provided that these deviations are reported immediately. Specific policies describing the City's prudence and ethical standards are found in Section 4.5, "Responsibility and Controls."

The stated final maturity dates of securities held shall not exceed five (5) years. 4.

The City considers repurchase agreements to be simultaneous purchases and sales of securities as outlined in the Master Repurchase Agreement and not as collateralized loans. However, the underlying securities may be referred to as "collateral." Evidence of the pledged collateral shall be maintained by the Finance Director or a third party financial institution. All collateral shall be subject to inspection and audit by the Finance Director or the City independent auditors. (1) Allowable Collateral 1. Certificates of Deposit Eligible securities for collateralization of certificates of deposit are U.S. Treasury obligations and government agency securities. The eligibility of specific issues may at times be restricted or prohibited because of current market conditions. 2. Repurchase Agreements Collateral underlying repurchase agreements is limited to U.S. government and agency obligations, which are eligible for wire transfer (i.e. book entry) to the City's designated safekeeping agent through the Federal Reserve System.. (2) Collateral Levels Collateral is valued at current market plus interest accrued through the date of valuation. "1. Certificates of Deposit The market value of collateral pledged for certificates of deposit must at all times be equal to or greater than 102% of the par value of the certificate of deposit plus accrued interest, less the amount insured by the FDIC or its successors.

(5) Collateral Substitution Collateralized investments and certificates of deposit often require substitution of collateral. Any broker or financial institution requesting substitution must contact the Investment Officer(s) for approval and settlement. The substituted collateral's value will be calculated and substitution approved if its value is equal to or greater than the required value (See 4.2.1.3.2.2). The Investment Officer or must give immediate notification of the decision to the bank or the safekeeping agent holding the collateral. Substitution is allowable for all transactions, but should be limited, if possible, to minimize potential administrative problems and transfer expense. The Investment Officer may limit substitution and assess appropriate fees if substitution becomes excessive or abusive. Collateral may be substituted only with the oral authorization of the Investment Officer, followed by written confirmations within 24 hours. (6) Collateral Reductions Should the collateral's market value exceed the required amount, any broker or financial institution may request approval from the Investment Officer to reduce collateral. Collateral reductions may be permitted only if the City's records indicate that the collateral's market value exceeds the required amount. Written confirmations of the collateral reduction should be received within 24 hours of the Investment Officer's approval. 4. Portfolio Diversification Risk of principal loss in the portfolio as a whole shall be minimized by diversifying investment types according to the following limitations. C:lwindowslTEMPtDraft Policy Version 6 August 200I.~o¢ 12 .City of University Pari~ Tex_n-~ - Investment Policy As discussed below, these limitations do not apply to bond proceeds. Investment Type: % of Portfolio U.S. Treasury Notes/Bonds/Bills * U.S. Agencies * Local Government Investment Pools Repurchase Agreements Certificates of Deposit · Money Market Mutual Funds 100% 60% 50% 30% 30% 15% It is the policy of the City to diversify its investment portfolio so that reliance on any one issuer or broker will not place an undue financial burden on the City. Generally, the City should limit its repurchase agreement exposure with a single firm to no more than 15% of the value of the City's overall portfolio. To allow efficient and effective placement of proceeds from any bond sales, these limits may be exceeded for a maximum of five business days following the receipt of bond proceeds. (1) Bond Proceeds Proceeds of a single bond issue may be invested in a single security or investment if the Investment Committee determines that such an investment is necessary to comply with Federal arbitrage restrictions or to facilitate arbitrage record keeping and calculation. 5. Limiting Maturity In order to minimize risk of loss due to interest rate fluctuations, investment maturities will not exceed the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. Maturity guidelines by funds are as follows: (1) Operating Funds (2) The dollar weighted average days to final stated maturity shall be 548 days or less. The Investment Officer will monitor the maturity level and make changes as appropriate. Bond Proceeds, Bond Reserves, Debt Service Funds The investment maturity of bond proceeds (including reserves and debt service funds) shall be determined considering: 1. the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds, and; C:lwindowsl TEMPtDraft Policy Version 6 August 200l.doc 13 .City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy the "temporary period" as defined by Federal tax law during which time bond proceeds may be invested at an unrestricted yield. After the expiration of the temporary period, bond proceeds subject to yield restriction shall be invested considering the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. 3. Safekeeping 1. Safekeeping Agreement The City shall contract with a bank or banks for the safekeeping of securities either owned by the City as a part of its investment portfolio or held as collateral to secure certificates of deposits or repurchase agreements. The Safekeeping Agreement shall dearly define the procedural steps for gaining access to the collateral should the City determine that the City funds are in jeopardy. The safekeeping institution, or Trustee, shall hold all aforementioned securities in an account at the Federal Reserve Bank that specifies City ownership of the account. The Safekeeping Agreement shall include the signatures of authorized representatives of the City, the firm pledging the collateral and the Trustee. 2. Safekeeping 'of Certificate of Deposit Collateral All collateral securing certificates of deposit must be held by a third party banking institution approved by the City, or collateral may be held at the Federal Reserve Bank. The City's ownership in collateral positions must be fully perfected. Safekeeping of Repurchase Agreement Collateral The securities that serve as .collateral for repurchase agreements with dealers must be delivered to a third-party custodian with which the City has established a third-party safekeeping agreement. The City's ownership of all securities that serve as collateral for repurchase agreements must be fully perfected. 3. Ensuring Liquidity Liquidity shall be achieved by matching investment maturities with forecasted cash flow requirements, by investing in securities with active secondary markets, and by investing in eligible money market mutual funds (MMMF's) and local government investment pools (LGIP's). C:lwindowsi TEMPtDreft Policy Version ff August 2001.doc 14 City of University Park. Texas - Investment Policy A security may be liquidated to meet unanticipated cash requirements, to re- deploy cash into other investments expected to outperform current holdings, or to otherwise adjust the portfolio. 4. Achieving Investment Return Objectives Investment selection for all funds shall be based on legality, appropriateness, liquidity, and risk/return considerations. The portfolios may be actively managed to enhance overall interest income. Active management will take place within the context of the "Prudent Person Rule." (see Section 2.4). 1. Securities Swaps The City may take advantage of security swap opportunities to improve portfolio yield. A swap which improves portfolio yield may be selected even if the transaction results in an accounting loss. 2. Competitive Bidding It is the policy of the City to require competitive bidding for all individual security purchases except for those transactions with money market mutual funds (MMMFs) and loca! government investment pools (LGIP's) which are deemed to be made at prevailing market rates, and for government securities purchased at issue through a primary dealer at auction price. Rather than relying solely on yield, investment in MMMFs and LGIP's shall be based on criteria determined by the Investment Committee, including adherence to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines for MMMFs when appropriate. At least three bidders must be contacted in all transactions involving individual securities. Competitive bidding for security swaps is also required. Bids may be solicited in any manner provided by law. For those situations where it may be impractical or unreasonable to receive three bids for a transaction due to a rapidly changing market environment or to secondary market availability, documentation of a competitive market survey of comparable securities or an explanation of the specific circumstance must be included with the transaction bid sheet. All bids received must be documented and filed for auditing purposes. 3. Methods of Monitoring Market Price The methods/sources to be used to monitor the price of investments that have been acquired with public funds shall be from sources deemed reliable by the Investment Officer, including primary or regional broker/dealers, established financial institutions providing portfolio management/accounting services, financial publications, such as the Wall C:lwindowsl TEMPtDraft Policy Version 6 August 200 Ldoc 1 5 City of University Park, Texas - Investment Policy. Street Journal, market information vendors such as Bloomberg or Telerate and market pricing services. 4. Benchmark Rate of Return As a general guideline, the City's cash management portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly meeting the average return on three-month U.S. Treasury Bills, or the average rate of 90-day Certificates of Deposit. These indices are considered benchmarks for risk-free investment transactions and therefore comprise a standard for the portfolio's rate of return. Additional benchmarks may be developed and recommended by the Investment Committee and used as a comparative performance measures for the portfolio. Additional benchmarks that may be considered for targeting by the Investment Committee include the Constant Maturity Treasury Bill with the maturity that most closely matches the weighted average maturity of the portfolio or a more customized index made up of blended Merrill Lynch Treasury/Agency indices. The investment program shall seek to augment rates of return above this threshold, consistent with legal restrictions and prudent investment principles. In a diversified portfolio, measured losses are inevitable and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio. 5. Responsibility and Control Authority to Invest Authority to manage the City investment program is derived from a resolution of the City. Those authorized by said resolution are designated as Investment Officers of the City, and, in conjunction with the Investment Committee, are responsible for investment decisions and activities. The City reserves the right to contract with an external investment advisory firm to manage the investment assets, and the resulting resolution will grant investment authorization to the contracted firm. The Finance Director shall establish written procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this Investment Policy. 2. Bonding requirements/Standard of care Each of the authorized investment officers shall be a bonded employee. All participants in the investment process shall act responsibly as custodians of the public trust and shall exercise the judgment and care, under prevailing circmnstances, that a prudent person would exercise in the management of the person's own affairs.

The internal control structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (I) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. 4. Standard of Ethics City staff involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair the ability to make impartial investment decisions. City staff shall disclose to the City any material interests in financial institutions that conduct business with the City, and they shall further disclose positions that could be related to the performance of the City portfolio.

Included in the assessment would be any target area within the City that could cause instability in the daily routine or services rendered to the citizens of University Park. $14,000.00 · Review of Emergency Management Plan It would be in the best interest of the City to have the Emergency Management Plan reviewed by an outside source. It is the intent of the plan to respond to any type of catastrophic emergency and maintain the organizational integrity of city government. It would be necessary to develop a survey for each city department to determine preparedness plonnlng levels of disaster recovery of documents, equipment and additional office space should an undesirable event occur. Once the survey is completed ERASE Enterprises would develop guidelines for each department to follow. $10,650.00 · Develop Tabletop Exercise ERASE Enterprises would develop a tabletop exercise to evaluate the emergency plan. The tabletop exercise would utilize the staff of Southern Methodist University and the Town of Highland Park. Once the evaluation is made, any recommendations would be written into the Emergency Management Plan. $8,850.00 · Conduct Incident Command Course While the Fire Department is familiar with operating an Incident Command System, other city departments may not be.

BRAgB Enterprises 1 1-800-372-7330 Emergency Management Project -City of University Park Spring 2002 Overview of Project Methodology and Work Plan For The Emergency Management Planning Project- City of University Park Hazard and Target Assessment ERASE will conduct a city-wide counter-terrorism safety and security audit of infrastructure targets, public safety facilities, public safety vehicles, government operation centers, and communication systems used by government agencies & departments, including the reliance on private sector systems for critical city operations). ERASE has proprietary audit instruments that have been developed for use for our other government and private sector clients for similar assessments. These instruments have been developed for use at both site-specific facilities as well as for geographical jurisdictions. We have also developed some of the materials used in the design of these instruments while working on foreign projects and projects associated with the United States military. Our staff will modify these instruments to make them site specific to the City of University Park and then apply them to the assessment of the identified government owned and operated targets within the city. We are planning to spend one day (PM, SAl) evaluating the design of city government services and modification of our evaluation and assessment instruments. Following the modification of the instruments we will spend one day on site (PM, SA) in the city performing the actual site audits and inspections. The Project Manager and the assigned Special Agent will evaluate different facilities (police, fire, water, transportation, communication, power, etc.) on the same day. The results of the assessment will be organized and summarized in a written narrative report on each facility evaluated. We will submit one executive summary that identifies the common weaknesses present with the facilities evaluated and an overall statement relating to the state of readiness of city facilities. Our report will identify common exposures and common solutions to these exposures. All weaknesses will be listed in the report by target facility or operation involved with the associated recommendation for improvement. The report development and production will require one day of work (PM, SA). i Project Manager = PM, Special Agent = SA, after each reference to a number of days of work, the PM and / or SA identifier will be shown to note which consultant, or both, will be dedicated to the task for the number of days shown. ERASE Enterprises www.erase.com 1-800-372-7330 Emergency Management Project - City of University Park Spring 2002 Review of Emergency Management Plan Our Project Manager will review the Emergency Management Plan for overall content and evaluate the completeness of the plan as compared to nationally recognized standards and the ERASE EMP model developed by our staff. The ERASE model has been used to develop and audit Emergency Management Plans for local, state, and federal government agencies and jurisdictions. We also have used our model to develop corporate Emergency Management Plans for many sectors in the business community. Our model was developed by our president and several of our senior agents using their extensive experience in preparing for, responding to, and recovering from disaster situations and crisis incidents beyond the normal resource levels available to local communities, state, and federal agencies. Our staff expertise comes from both urban and suburban backgrounds. We are familiar with the City of University Park and its terrain, demographics, and physical resource levels and know that our project team will be on target with our review and recommendations of the current Emergency Management Plan. We will evaluate the current EMP in accordance with recommendations from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the International City Manager's Association (ICMA), and with state and local statutes in mind as well. One day of time will be spent in the initial review of the plan and the review of our validation process for the plan (PM). The Special Agent assigned to this part of the project will spend two days reviewing the Project Manager's notes, validating the various segments of the plan for accuracy and implementation capabilities. Any deficiencies or areas of concern will be identified in a written report and sent to the client for distribution to the various departments that might need to update or rewrite their sections of the plan. Develop Table Top Exercise ERASE will develop a realistic emergency scenario for the City of University Park to test and evaluate their Emergency Management Plan. The incident will be centered on the activities of a terrorist group, carrying out a strike on a target in the jurisdiction of the client. The scenario exercise will involve multiple agencies and multiple jurisdictions, thereby requiting the use of Incident Command - Unified Command structure, per federal regulations. The development of the program will include the production of written instruction cards for the various types of individuals involved in the conduct and response to the exercise. We will establish the positions of: a) controllers, b) simulators, c) role players, d) evaluators, and e) observers. There will be a short instructional session for each type of position involved in the exercise and what their role and responsibilities are in the exercise before the start of the event. ERASE will also develop an evaluation instnunent (based on the approved EMP - upon completion of the second phase of this proposal) for review by the client prior to the exercise. The evaluation instrument will identify key performance objectives and action tasks that must be carried out to meet the objectives of the EMP. Strengths and ERASE 2 Enterprises www.erase.com 1-800-372-7330 Emergency Management Project - City of University Park Spring 2002 weaknesses in the organization's ability to safely and effectively respond to incidents of terrorism and other catastrophic types of disaster incidents will also be identified via a scoring system on the known required task performances and by reviewing written comments by the evaluators. The evaluation results will be measured and a final written report on the incident and the performance of the various involved parties will be provided to the client for their use and distribution to the appropriate parties. There will be one pre-event meeting with representatives of each of the participating agencies, the City of University Park, the Town of Highland Park, and Southern Methodist University prior to the event to discuss their roles and commitment of resources for the exercise and to inform them of the general operating rules for the exercise. The development of the various participant instruction cards and the inbound data cards used to conduct the exercise, the conduct of the pre-event meetings, the conduct of the exercise, and the review and production of the findings of the exercise will take three days of work (PM, SA). Conduct an Incident Command Course ERASE will develop a custom version of the federal government's Incident Command System (ICS) training program for delivery to department and agency heads who will command resources during the response to incidents of terrorism and other disaster situations. This program will be presented in an Illustrated Lecture format with class participation and tabletop scenario role playing exercises. The program will meet all · requirements at the federal regulation level and be specifically designed around the command structure and resource application program used by the client. Each participant will receive a student manual, which is to be used as technical support during the delivery of the course. The manual will also reference the city EMP for support materials. Kevin D. Mellott, the president of our finn, will present this program. Mr. Mellott is a platform speaker on the international market on issues relating to terrorism, executive protection, economic espionage, travel safety and security, cyber crime, and emergency preparedness. His fee for a one-day speaking engagement is $5,000.00 USD. Normally, there is a handout development and production fee for his presentations. We are waiving this fee if the program is purchased with the other sections of our proposal.

This policy serves to satisfy the statutory requirement, specifically the Public Funds Investment Act, Chapter 2256 of the Texas Government Code (the "Act"), to define, adopt and review a formal investment strategy and policy. It is the policy of the City that all available funds shall be invested in conformance with these legal and administrative guidelines. Effective cash management is recognized as essential to good fiscal management. An aggressive cash management and investment policy will be pursued to take advantage of investment interest as viable and material revenue to all operating and capital funds. The City's portfolio shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with state and federal law. Investments shall be made with the primary considerations of: · Preservation of capital and protection of principal · Maintenance of sufficient liquidity to meet operating needs · Security of City funds and investments · Diversification of investments to avoid unreasonable or foreseeable risks · Maximization of return on the portfolio SECTION 1 PURPOSE .City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 1. Purpose 1. Authorization This Policy is to be authorized by the City Council in accordance with Section 5 of the Public Funds Investment Act (Chapter 2256, Texas Government Code), which requires the adoption of a formal written Investment Policy. 2. Goal The primary goal of the City of University Park's Investment Policy shall be to ensure the safety of all funds entrusted to the City; to maintain the availability of those funds for the payment of all necessary obligations of the City; and to provide for the investment of all funds, not immediately required, in interest-bearing securities or pooled investment products. The safety of the principal invested shall always be the primary concern. 3. Scope This Investment Policy of the City of University Park shall include all investment activities of any fund of the City, except for the Firemen's Relief and Retirement Fund, which is covered by a separate policy. In addition to this Policy, bond funds, including debt service and reserve funds, shall be managed by their governing resolution and federal law, including the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and. subsequent legislation. City funds will be pooled for investment purposes. 4. Review and Amendment This Policy may be amended from time to time as the City Council may so desire, or as State Law may require. This Policy, which includes strategies for each fund or pooled fund group, shall be adopted by resolution, rule, or ordinance by the City Council and shall be reviewed annually by the City Council.

SECTION 2 INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES Ci,ty of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 2. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES The City shall manage and invest its cash with four objectives, listed in order of priority: Preservation and Safety of Principal; Liquidity; Yield; and Prudence. All investments shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with State and Local Law. The City shall maintain a comprehensive cash management program that includes the prudent investment of available cash. Cash management is defined as the process of managing monies in order to increase cash availability and interest earnings on short- term investment of idle cash. 1. Preservation and Safety of Principal The primary objective of City investment activity is the preservation of principal in the overall portfolio. Each investment transaction shall be conducted in a manner designed to avoid principal losses, whether they are from securities defaults or erosion of market value. The manner in which the City ensures safety of principal is presented in Section 4.2, "Ensuring Safety of Principal." 2. Maintenance of Adequate Liquidity The City investment portfolio shall be structured such that the City is able to meet all obligations in a timely manner. Maintenance of adequate liquidity is described in Section 4.3, "Ensuring Liquidity." 3. Return on Investments Consistent with State law, the City shall seek to optimize return on investments within the constraints of safety and liquidity. Investments (excluding assets managed under separate investment programs, such as in arbitrage restrictive programs) shall be made in permitted obligations at yields equal to or greater than the bond equivalent yield on United States Treasury obligations of comparable maturity. Other appropriate performance measures will be established by the Investment Committee. Specific policies regarding investment rate of return are presented in Section 4.4, "Achieving Investment Return Objectives." For bond issues to which Federal yield or arbitrage restrictions apply, the primary objectives shall be to obtain satisfactory market yields and to minimize the costs associated with investment of such funds. City of University Park, Texas - Investment Policy 4. Prudence and Ethical Standards The standard of prudence used by the City shall be the "prudent person rule" and shall be applied in the context of managing the overall portfolio within the applicable legal constraints. The prudent person rule is restated below: "Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence would exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived." In determining whether the Investment Officer(s) or Investment Advisor under contract has exercised prudence with respect to an investment decision, the determination shall be made taking into consideration the investment of all funds over which the Officer/Advisor had responsibility rather than a consideration as to the prudence of a single investment, and whether the investment decision was consistent with the written Investment Policy of the City. The Investment Officers, acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence, shall not be held personally responsible for a specific security's credit risk or market price changes, provided that these deviations are reported immediately. Specific policies describing the City's prudence and ethical standards are found in Section 4.5, "Responsibility and Controls." 3 SECTION 3 INVESTMENT STRATEGY STATEMENT City of University Park~ Texas - Iovestment Policy 3. INVESTMENT STRATEGY STATEMENT The City maintains portfolios that utilize four specific investment strategy considerations designed to address the unique characteristics of the fund groups represented in the portfolios. 1. The Operating Funds The investment strategy for operating funds has as its primary objective the assurance that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. The secondary objective is to create a portfolio structure which will experience minimal volatility during economic cycles. This may be accomplished by purchasing quality, short- to medium-term securities. The dollar weighted average maturity shall be calculated in accordance with GASB requirements. The weighted average maturity of operating funds shall not exceed 548 days. Securities may not be purchased that have a final stated maturity date that exceeds five (5) years. 2. The Bond Debt Service Funds The investment strategy for bond debt service fund(s) has as its primary objective the assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt service obligation on the required payment date. Securities purchased shall not have a stated final maturity date that exceeds the next unfunded bond debt service payment date. 3. Bond Reserve Funds The investment strategy for bond reserve fund(s) has as its primary objective the ability ,to generate a dependable revenue stream to the appropriate debt service fund from securities with a low degree of volatility. Securities should be of high quality and, except as may be required by the Bond Ordinance specific to an individual issue, of short-to- intermediate-term maturities. The stated final maturity dates of securities held shall not exceed five (5) years. 4 City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 4. Capital Projects Funds The investment strategy for capital projects funds portfolios has as its primary objective the assurance that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. These portfolios should include at least 10% in highly liquid securities to allow for flexibility and unanticipated project outlays. The stated final maturity dates of securities held should not exceed the estimated project completion date. To maximize the effective investment of assets, all funds needed for general obligations may be pooled into one account for investment purposes. The income derived from this account will be distributed to the various funds based on their average balances on a periodic basis.

Financial institutions serving as City Depositories will be required to sign an Agreement with the City and its safekeeping agent for the collateral, perfecting the City's rights to the collateral in case of default, bankruptcy or closure.

An executed copy of this agreement must be on file before the City will enter into any repurchase agreements with an issuer. (See Appendix B, "Master Repurchase Agreement".) The City considers repurchase agreements to be simultaneous purchases and sales of securities as outlined in the Master Repurchase Agreement and not as collateralized loans. However, the underlying securities may be referred to as "collateral." Evidence of the pledged collateral shall be maintained by the Finance Director or a third party financial institution. All collateral shall be subject to inspection and audit by the Finance Director or the City independent auditors. (1) Allowable Collateral 1. Certificates of Deposit Eligible securities for collateralization of certificates of deposit are U.S. Treasury obligations and government agency securities.

(2) Collateral Levels Collateral is valued at current market plus interest accrued through the date of valuation. 1.

Any broker or financial institution requesting substitution must contact the Investment Officer(s) for approval and settlement. The substituted collateral's value will be calculated and substitution approved if its value is equal to or greater than the required value (See 4.2.1.3.2.2).

Written confirmations of the collateral reduction should be received within 24 hours of the Investment Officer's approval. 4. Portfolio Diversification Risk of principal loss in the portfolio as a whole shall be minimized by diversifying investment types according to the following limitations. 12 City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy As discussed below, these limitations do not apply to bond proceeds. Investment Type: % of Portfolio · U.S. Treasury Notes/Bonds/Bills · U.S. Agencies · Local Government Investment Pools · Repurchase Agreements · Certificates of Deposit · Money Market Mutual Funds 100% 60% 5O% 30% 30% 15% It is the policy of the City to diversify its investment portfolio so that reliance on any one issuer or broker will not place an undue financial burden on the City. Generally, the City should limit its repurchase agreement exposure with a single firm to no more than 15% of the value of the City's overall portfolio. To allow efficient and effective placement of proceeds from any bond sales, these limits may be exceeded for a maximum of five business days following the receipt of bond proceeds. (1) Bond Proceeds Proceeds of a single bond issue may be invested in a single security or investment if the Investment Committee determines that such an investment is necessary to comply with Federal arbitrage restrictions or to facilitate arbitrage record keeping and calculation. 5. Limiting Maturity In order to minimize risk of loss due to interest rate fluctuations, investment maturities will not exceed the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. Maturity guidelines by funds are as follows: (1) Operating Funds The dollar weighted average days to final stated maturity shall be 548 days or less. The Investment Officer will monitor the maturity level and make changes as appropriate. (2) Bond Proceeds, Bond Reserves, Debt Service Funds The investment maturity of bond proceeds (including reserves and debt service funds) shall be determined considering: 1. the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds, and; 13 Ci.ty of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy the "temporary period" as defined by Federal tax law during which time bond proceeds may be invested at an unrestricted yield. After the expiration of the temporary period, bond proceeds subject to yield restriction shall be invested considering the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. 3. Safekeeping 1. Safekeeping Agreement The City shall contract with a bank or banks for the safekeeping of securities either owned by the City as a part of its investment portfolio or held as collateral to secure certificates of deposits or repurchase agreements. The Safekeeping Agreement shall clearly define the procedural steps for gaining access to the collateral should the City determine that the City funds are in jeopardy. The safekeeping institution, or Trustee, shall hold all aforementioned securities in an account at the Federal Reserve Bank that specifies City ownership of the account. The Safekeeping Agreement shall include the signatures of authorized representatives of the City, the firm pledging the collateral and the Trustee. Safekeeping of Certificate of Deposit Collateral All collateral securing certificates of deposit must be held by a third party banking institution approved by the City, or collateral may be held at the Federal Reserve Bank. The City's ownership in collateral positions must be fully perfected. 3. Safekeeping of Repurchase Agreement Collateral The securities that serve as collateral for repurchase agreements with dealers must be delivered to a third-party custodian with which the City has established a third-party safekeeping agreement. The City's ownership of all securities that serve as collateral for repurchase agreements must be fully perfected. 3. Ensuring Liquidity Liquidity shall be achieved by matching investment maturities with forecasted cash flow requirements, by investing in securities with active secondary markets, and by investing in eligible money market mutual funds (MMMF's) and local government investment pools (LGIP's). 14 City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy A security may be liquidated to meet unanticipated cash requirements, to re- deploy cash into other investments expected to outperform current holdings, or to otherwise adjust the portfolio. 4. Achieving Investment Return Objectives Investment selection for all funds shall be based on legality, appropriateness, liquidity, and risk/return considerations. The portfolios may be actively managed to enhance overall interest income. Active management will take place within the context of the "Prudent Person Rule." (see Section 2.4). 1. Securities Swaps The City may take advantage of security swap opportunities to improve portfolio yield. A swap which improves portfolio yield may be selected even if the transaction results in an accounting loss. 2. Competitive Bidding It is the policy of the City to require competitive bidding for all individual security purchases except for those transactions with money market mutual funds (MMMFs) and local government investment pools (LGIP's) which are deemed to be made at prevailing market rates, and for government securities purchased at issue through a primary dealer at auction price. Rather than relying solely on yield, investment in MMMFs and LGIP's shall be based on criteria determined by the Investment Committee, including adherence to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines for MMMFs when appropriate. At least three bidders must be contacted in all transactions involving individual securities. Competitive bidding for security swaps is also required. Bids may be solicited in any manner provided by law. For those situations where it may be impractical or unreasonable to receive three bids for a transaction due to a rapidly changing market environment or to secondary market availability, documentation of a competitive market survey of comparable securities or an explanation of the specific circumstance must be included with the transaction bid sheet. Ail bids received must be documented and filed for auditing purposes. 3. Methods of Monitoring Market Price The methods/sources to be used to monitor the price of investments that have been acquired with public funds shall be from sources deemed reliable by the Investment Officer, including primary or regional broker/dealers, established financial institutions providing portfolio management/accounting services, financial publications, such as the Wall City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy Street Journal, market information vendors such as Bloomberg or Telerate and market pricing services. 4. Benchmark Rate of Return As a general guideline, the City's cash management portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly meeting the average return on three-month U.S. Treasury Bills, or the average rate of 90-day Certificates of Deposit. These indices are considered benchmarks for risk-free investment transactions and therefore comprise a standard for the portfolio's rate of return. Additional benchmarks may be developed and recommended by the Investment Committee and used as a comparative performance measures for the portfolio. Additional benchmarks that may be considered for targeting by the Investment Committee include the Constant Maturity Treasury Bill with the maturity that most closely matches the weighted average maturity of the portfolio or a more customized index made up of blended Merrill Lynch Treasury/Agency indices. The investment program shall seek to augment rates of return above this threshold, consistent with legal restrictions and prudent investment principles. In a diversified portfolio, measured losses are inevitable and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio. 5. Responsibility and Control 1.

Those authorized by said resolution are designated as Investment Officers of the City, and, in conjunction with the Investment Committee, are responsible for investment decisions and activities.

The Finance Director shall establish written procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this Investment Policy. 2. Bonding requirements/Standard of care Each of the authorized investment officers shall be a bonded employee. All participants in the investment process shall act responsibly as custodians of the public trust and shall exercise the judgment and care, under prevailing circumstances, that a prudent person would exercise in the management of the person's own affairs.

The City shall review its investment strategies and policy not less than annually. This policy serves to satisfy the statutory requirement, specifically the Public Funds Investment Act, Chapter 2256 of the Texas Government Code (the "Act"), to define, adopt and review a formal investment strategy and policy. It is the policy of the City that all available funds shall be invested in conformance with these legal and administrative guidelines. Effective cash management is recognized as essential to good fiscal management. An aggressive cash management and investment policy will be pursued to take advantage of investment interest as viable and material revenue to all operating and capital funds. The City's portfolio shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with state and federal law. Investments shall be made with the primary considerations of: · Preservation of capital and protection of principal · Maintenance of sufficient liquidity to meet operating needs · Security of City funds and investments · Diversification of investments to avoid unreasonable or foreseeable risks · Maximization of return on the portfolio SECTION 1 PURPOSE Ci.ty of UniversiW. Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 1. Purpose 1. Authorization This Policy is to be authorized by the City Council in accordance with Section 5 of the Public Funds Investment Act (Chapter 2256, Texas Government Code), which requires the adoption of a formal written Investment Policy. 2. Goal The primary goal of the City of University Park's Investment Policy shall be to ensure the safety of all funds entrusted to the City; to maintain the availability of those funds for the payment of all necessary obligations of the City; and to provide for the investment of all funds, not immediately required, in interest-bearing securities or pooled investment products. The safety of the principal invested shall always be the primary concern. 3. Scope This Investment Policy of the City of University Park shall include all investment activities of any fund of the City, except for the Firemen's Relief and Retirement Fund, which is covered by a separate policy. In addition to this Policy, bond funds, including debt service and reserve funds, shall be managed by their governing resolution and federal law, including the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and subsequent legislation. City funds will be pooled for investment purposes. 4. Review and Amendment This Policy may be amended from time to time as the City Council may so desire, or as State Law may require. This Policy, which includes strategies for each fund or pooled fund group, shall be adopted by resolution, rule, or ordinance by the City Council and shall be reviewed aunt/ally by the City Council.

SECTION 2 INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES City of University Park, Texas - Investment Policy 2. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES The City shall manage and invest its cash with four objectives, listed in order of priority: Preservation and Safety of Principal; Liquidity; Yield; and Prudence. All investments shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with State and Local Law. The City shall maintain a comprehensive cash management program that includes the prudent investment of available cash. Cash management is defined as the process of managing monies in order to increase cash availability and interest earnings on short- term investment of idle cash. 1. Preservation and Safety of Principal The primary objective of City investment activity is the preservation of principal in the overall portfolio. Each investment transaction shall be conducted in a manner designed to avoid principal losses, whether they are from securities defaults or erosion of market value. The manner in which the City ensures safety of principal is presented in Section 4.2, "Ensuring Safety of Principal." 2. Maintenance of Adequate Liquidity The City investment portfolio shall be structured such that the City is able to meet all obligations in a timely manner. Maintenance of adequate liquidity is described in Section 4.3, "Ensuring Liquidity." 3. Return on Investments Consistent with State law, the City shall seek to optimize return on investments within the constraints of safety and liquidity. Investments (excluding assets managed under separate investment programs, such as in arbitrage restrictive programs) shall be made in permitted obligations at yields equal to dr greater than the bond equivalent yield on United States Treasury obligations of comparable maturity. Other appropriate performance measures will be established by the Investment Committee. Specific policies regarding investment rate of return are presented in Section 4.4, "Achieving Investment Return Objectives." For bond issues to which Federal yield or arbitrage restrictions apply, the primary objectives shall be to obtain satisfactory market yields and to minimize the costs associated with investment of such funds. 2 Ci.ty of Universi ,ty Park, Texas - Investment Policy 4. Prudence and Ethical Standards The standard of prudence used by the City shall be the "prudent person rule" and shall be applied in the context of managing the overall portfolio within the applicable legal constraints. The prudent person rule is restated below: "Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstmaces then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence would exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived." In determining whether the Investment Officer(s) or Investment Advisor under contract has exercised prudence with respect to an investment decision, the determination shall be made taking into consideration the investment of all funds over which the Officer/Advisor had responsibility rather than a consideration as to the prudence of a single investment, and whether the investment decision was consistent with the written Investment Policy of the City. The Investment Officers, acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence, shall not be held personally responsible for a specific security's credit risk or market price changes, provided that these deviations are reported immediately. Specific policies describing the City's prudence and ethical standards are found in Section 4.5, "Responsibility and Controls." SECTION 3 INVESTMENT STRATEGY STATEMENT Ci,ty of Universi ,ty Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 3. INVESTMENT STRATEGY STATEMENT The City maintains portfolios that utilize four specific investment strategy considerations designed to address the unique characteristics of the fund groups represented in the portfolios. 1. The Operating Funds The investment strategy for operating funds has as its primary objective the assurance that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. The secondary objective is to create a portfolio structure which will experience minimal volatility during economic cycles. This may be accomplished by purchasing quality, short- to medium-term securities. The dollar weighted average maturity shall be calculated in accordance with GASB requirements. The weighted average maturity of operating funds shall not exceed 548 days. Securities may not be purchased that have a final stated maturity date that exceeds five (5) years. 2. The Bond Debt Service Funds The investment strategy for bond debt service fund(s) has as its primary objective the assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt service obligation on the required payment date. Securities purchased shall not have a stated final maturity date that exceeds the next unfunded bond debt service payment date. 3. Bond Reserve Funds The investment strategy for bond reserve fund(s) has as its primary objective the ability to generate a dependable revenue stream to the appropriate debt service fund from securities with a low degree of volatility. Securities should be of high quality and, except as may be required by the Bond Ordinance specific to an individual issue, of short-to- intermediate-term maturities. The stated final maturity dates of securities held shall not exceed five (5) years. City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 4. Capital Projects Funds The investment strategy for capital projects funds portfolios has as its primary objective the assurance that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. These portfolios should include at least 10% in highly liquid securities to allow for flexibility and unanticipated project outlays. The stated final maturity dates of securities held should not exceed the estimated project completion date. To maximize the effective investment of assets, all funds needed for general obligations may be pooled into one account for investment purposes. The income derived from this account will be distributed to the various funds based on their average balances on a periodic basis. Proceeds of bond issues shall not be pooled with other assets of the City, but shall be maintained in the fund issuing the bonds with interest earnings on these invested proceeds recorded directly to that fund.

Ensuring Safety of Principal Ensuring safety is accomplished through protection of principal and safekeeping. 1. Protection of Principal The City shall seek to control the risk of loss due to the failure of a security issuer or guarantor. Such risk shall be controlled by: 1. investing only in the safest types of securities as defined in the Policy, 2. qualifying the broker/dealer and financial institution with whom the City will transact, 3. collateralization as required by law, 4. portfolio diversification, and 5. limiting maturity. Settlement of all investment transactions, except those transactions involving investments in mutual funds or local government investment pools, must be made on a delivery versus payment basis.

This list of approved investment providers must be reviewed at least annually by the City's Investment Committee and shall be recorded in the Committee's meeting minutes. The City's Finance Advisory Committee shall comprise the Investment Committee. All state and national banks located in the State of Texas, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) are to be considered as eligible depositories. The financial condition of the bank shall be considered prior to establishing any accounts with that bank. The Finance Advisory Committee shall review the bids submitted by depository candidates and make a recommendation to the City Council for final approval. 2. Master Repurchase Agreement It is the policy of the City to require each issuer of repurchase agreements to sign a copy of the City's Master Repurchase Agreement. An executed copy of this agreement must be on file before the City will enter into any repurchase agreement with an issuer. (See Appendix B, "Master Repurchase Agreement".) 3. Collateralization Consistent with the requirements of State law, the City requires all bank deposits (including time deposits) to be federally insured or collateralized"with eligible securities. Financial institutions serving as City Depositories will be required to sign an Agreement with the City and its safekeeping agent for the collateral, perfecting the City's rights to the collateral in case of default, bankruptcy or closure. The City shall not accept, as depository collateral, any security that is not specifically allowed to be held as a direct investment by the City portfolio (see 4.1). Repurchase agreements must also be collateralized in accordance with State law. Each issuer of repurchase agreements is required to sign a copy of the City's Master Repurchase Agreement. An executed copy of this agreement must be on file before the City will enter into any repurchase agreements with an issuer. (See City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy Appendix B, "Master Repurchase Agreement".) The City considers repurchase agreements to be simultaneous purchases and sales of securities as outlined in the Master Repurchase Agreement and not as collateralized loans. However, the underlying securities may be referred to as "collateral." Evidence of the pledged collateral shall be maintained by the Finance Director or a third party financial institution. All collateral shall be subject to inspection and audit by the Finance Director or the City independent auditors. (1) Allowable Collateral 1. Certificates of Deposit Eligible securities for collateralization of certificates of deposit are U.S. Treasury obligations and government agency securities. The eligibility of specific issues may at times be restricted or prohibited because of current market conditions. 2. Repurchase Agreements Collateral underlying repurchase agreements is limited to U.S. government and agency obligations, which are eligible for wire transfer. (i.e. book entry) to the City's designated safekeeping agent through the Federal Reserve System. (2) Collateral Levels Collateral is valued at current market plus interest accrued through, the date of valuation. 1. Certificates of Deposit The market value of collateral pledged for certificates of deposit must at all times be equal to or greater than 102% of the par value of the certificate of deposit plus accrued interest, less the amount insured by the FDIC or its successors. Investment in eligible pooled Certificate of Deposit programs is authorized under this section. 2. Repurchase Agreements Ci~. of Universi~. Park~ Texas - Investment Policy The market value of collateral required to be pledged for. repurchase agreements shall be a percentage of the par value of the agreement plus accrued interest and shall be maintained at the following levels: Collateral U.S. Treasury U.S. Government Maturity Securities Agency 1 year or less 102 % 102 % 1 year to 5 years 102 % 103 % Over 5 years 103 % 104 % (3) Monitoring Collateral Adequacy 1. Certificates of Deposit The City requires monthly reports with market values of pledged securities from all financial institutions with which the City has certificates of deposit. The City's Investment Officer will at least weekly monitor the adequacy of collateral. 2. Repurchase Agreements Weekly monitoring by the City's Investment Officer of all collateral underlying repurchase agreements is required. More frequent monitoring may be necessary during periods of market volatility. (4) Margin Calls 1. Certificates of Deposit If the'' collateral pledged for a certificate of deposit falls below the 102% of the deposit, plus accrued interest less FDIC insurance, the institution will be notified by the City and will be required to pledge additional securities no later than the end of the next succeeding business day. 2. Repurchase Agreements If the value of the collateral underlying a repurchase agreement falls below the margin maintenance levels specified above, the City will make a margin call unless the repurchase agreement is Ci,ty of Universi ,ty Park~ Texas - Investment Policy scheduled to mature within five business days and the amount is deemed to be immaterial. (5) Collateral Substitution Collateralized investments and certificates of deposit often require substitution of collateral. Any broker or financial institution requesting substitution must contact the Investment Officer(s) for approval and settlement. The substituted collateral's value will be calculated and substitution approved if its value is equal to or greater than the required value (See 4.2.1.3.2.2). The Investment Officer or must give immediate notification of the decision to the bank or the safekeeping agent holding the collateral. Substitution is allowable for all transactions, but should be limited, if possible, to minimize potential administrative problems and transfer expense. The Investment Officer may limit substitution and assess appropriate fees if substitution becomes excessive or abusive. Collateral may be substituted only with the oral authorization of the Investment Officer, followed by written confirmations within 24 hours. (6) Collateral Reductions Should the collateral's market value exceed the required amount, any broker or financial institution may request approval from the Investment Officer to reduce collateral. Collateral reductions may be permitted only if the City's records indicate that the collateral's market value exceeds the required amount. Written confirmations of the collateral reduction should be received within 24 hours of the Investment Officer's approval. 4. Portfolio Diversification Risk of principal loss in the portfolio as a whole shall be minimized by diversifying investment types according to the following limitations. Ci,ty of Universi ,ty Park~ Texas - Investment Policy As discussed below, these limitations do not apply to bond proceeds. Investment Type: % of Portfolio · U.S. Treasury Notes/Bonds/Bills 100% · U.S. Agencies 60% · Local Government Investment Pools 50% · Repurchase Agreements 30% · Certificates of Deposit 30% · Money Market Mutual Funds 15% It is the policy of the City to diversify its investment portfolio so that reliance on any one issuer or broker will not place an undue financial burden on the City. Generally, the City should limit its repurchase agreement exposure with a single firm to no more than 15% of the value of the City's overall portfolio. To allow efficient and effective placement of proceeds from any bond sales, these limits may be exceeded for a maximum of five business days following the receipt of bond proceeds. (1) Bond Proceeds Proceeds of a single bond issue may be invested in a single security or investment if the Investment Committee determines that such an investment is necessary to comply with Federal arbitrage restrictions or to facilitate arbitrage record keeping and calculation. Limiting Maturity In order to minimize risk of loss due to interest rate fluctuations, investment maturities will not exceed the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. Maturity guidelines by funds are as follows: (1) Operating Funds The dollar weighted average days to final stated maturity shall be 548 days or less. The Investment Officer will monitor the maturity level and make changes as appropriate. (2) Bond Proceeds, Bond Reserves, Debt Service Funds The investment maturity of bond proceeds (including reserves and debt service funds) shall be determined considering: 1. the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds, and; Ci.ty of Universi .ty Park~ Texas - Investment Policy the "temporary period" as defined by Federal tax law during which time bond proceeds may be invested at an unrestricted yield. After the expiration of the temporary period, bond proceeds subject to yield restriction shall be invested considering the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. 3. Safekeeping 1. Safekeeping Agreement The City shall contract with a bank or banks for the safekeeping of securities either owned by the City as a part of its investment portfolio or held as collateral to secure certificates of deposits or repurchase agreements. The Safekeeping Agreement shall clearly define the procedural steps for gaining access to the collateral should the City determine that the City funds are in jeopardy. The safekeeping institution, or Trustee, shall hold all aforementioned securities in an account at the Federal Reserve Bank that specifies City ownership of the account. The Safekeeping Agreement shall include the signatures of authorized representatives of the City, the firm pledging the collateral and the Trustee. 2. Safekeeping of Certificate of Deposit Collateral All collateral securing certificates of deposit must be held by a third party banking institution approved by the City, or collateral may be held at the Federal Reserve Bank. The City's ownership in collateral positions must be fully perfected. 3. Safekeeping of Repurchase Agreement Collateral The securities that serve as collateral for repurchase agreements with dealers must be delivered to a third-party custodian with which the City has established a third-party safekeeping agreement. The City's ownership of all securities that serve as collateral for repurchase agreements must be fully perfected. 3. Ensuring Liquidity Liquidity shall be achieved by matching investment maturities with forecasted cash flow requirements, by investing in securities with active secondary markets, and by investing in eligible money market mutual funds (MMMF's) and local government investment pools (LGIP's). 14 City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy A security may be liquidated to meet unanticipated cash requirements, to re- deploy cash into other investments expected to outperform current holdings, or to otherwise adjust the portfolio. 4. Achieving Investment Return Objectives Investment selection for all funds shall be based on legality, appropriateness, liquidity, and risk/return considerations. The portfolios may be actively managed to enhance overall interest income. Active management will take place within the context of the "Prudent Person Rule." (see Section 2.4). 1. Securities Swaps The City may take advantage of security swap opportunities to improve portfolio yield. A swap which improves portfolio yield may be selected even if the transaction results in an accounting loss. 2. Competitive Bidding It is the policy of the City to require competitive bidding for all individual security purchases except for those transactions with money market mutual funds (MMMFs) and local government investment pools (LGIP's) which are deemed to be made at prevailing market rates, and for government securities purchased at issue through a primary dealer at auction price. Rather than relying solely on yield, investment in MMMFs and LGIP's shall be based on criteria determined by the Investment Committee, including adherence to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines for MMMFs when appropriate. At least three bidders must be contacted in all transactions involving individual securities. Competitive bidding for security swaps is also required. Bids may be solicited in any manner provided by law. For those situations where it may be impractical or unreasonable to receive three bids for a transaction due to a rapidly changing market environment or to secondary mark[t availability, documentation of a competitive market survey of comparable securities or an explanation of the specific circumstance must be included with the transaction bid sheet. All bids received must be documented and filed for auditing purposes. 3. Methods of Monitoring Market Price The methods/sources to be used to monitor the price of investments that have been acquired with public funds shall be from sources deemed reliable by the Investment Officer, including primary or regional broker/dealers, established financial institutions providing portfolio management/accounting services, financial publications, such as the Wall Ci,ty of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy. Street Journal, market information vendors such as Bloomberg or Telerate and market pricing services. 4. Benchmark Rate of Return As a general guideline, the City's cash management portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly meeting the average return on three-month U.S. Treasury Bills, or the average rate of 90-day Certificates of Deposit. These indices are considered benchmarks for risk-free investment transactions and therefore comprise a standard for the portfolio's rate of return. Additional benchmarks may be developed and recommended by the Investment Committee and used as a comparative performance measures for the portfolio. Additional benchmarks that may be considered for targeting by the Investment Committee include the Constant Maturity Treasury Bill with the maturity that most closely matches the weighted average maturity of the portfolio or a more customized index made up of blended Merrill Lynch Treasury/Agency indices. The investment program shall seek to augment rates of return above this threshold, consistent with legal restrictions and prudent investment principles. In a diversified portfolio, measured losses are inevitable and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio. 5. Responsibility and Control 1. Authority to Invest Authority to manage the City investment program is derived' from a resolution of the City. Those authorized by said resolution are designated as Investment Officers of the City, and, in conjunction with the Investment Committee, are responsible for investment decisions and activities. The City reserves the right to contract with an external investment advisory firm to manage t.he investment assets, and the resulting resolution will grant investment authorization to the contracted firm. The Finance Director shall establish written procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this Investment Policy. 2. Bonding requirements/Standard of care Each of the authorized investment officers shall be a bonded employee. All participants in the investment process shall act responsibly as custodians of the public trust and shall exercise the judgment and care, under prevailing circumstances, that a prudent person would exercise in the management of the person's own affairs.

Establishment of Internal Controls The Finance Director is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the entity are protected from loss, theft or misuse. The internal control structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives are met.

Standard of Ethics City staff involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair the ability to make impartial investment decisions. City staff shall disclose to the City any material interests in financial institutions that conduct business with the City, and they shall further disclose positions that could be related to the performance of the City portfolio.

The City shall review its investment strategies and policy not less than annually. This policy serves to satisfy the statutory requirement, specifically the Public Funds Investment Act, Chapter 2256 of the Texas Government Code (the "Act"), to define, adopt and review a formal investment strategy and policy. It is the policy of the City that all available funds shall be invested in conformance with these legal and administrative guidelines. Effective cash management is recognized as essential to good fiscal management. An aggressive cash management and investment policy will be pursued to take advantage of investment interest as viable and material revenue to all operating and capital funds. The City's portfolio shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with state and federal law. Investments shall be made with the primary considerations of: · Preservation of capital and protection of principal · Maintenance of sufficient liquidity to meet operating needs · Security of City funds and investments · Diversification of investments to avoid unreasonable or foreseeable risks · Maximization of return on the portfolio SECTION 1 PURPOSE City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 1. Purpose 1. Authorization This Policy is to be authorized by the City Council in accordance with Section 5 of the Public Funds Investment Act (Chapter 2256, Texas Government Code), which requires the adoption of a formal written Investment Policy. 2. Goal The primary goal of the City of University Park's Investment Policy shall be to ensure the safety of all funds entrusted to the City; to maintain the availability of those funds for the payment of all necessary obligations of the City; and to provide for the investment of all funds, not immediately required, in interest-bearing securities or pooled investment products. The safety of the principal invested shall always be the primary concern. 3. Scope This Investment Policy of the City of University Park shall include all investment activities of any fund of the City, except for the Firemen's Relief and Retirement Fund, which is covered by a separate policy. In addition to this Policy, bond funds, including debt service and reserve funds, shall be managed by their governing resolution and federal law, including the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and subsequent legislation. City funds will be pooled for investment purposes. 4. Review and Amendment This Policy may be amended from time to time as the City Council may so desire, or as State Law may require. This Policy, which includes strategies for each fund or pooled fund group, shall be adopted by resolution, rule, or ordinance by the City Council and shall be reviewed annually by the City Council. The fact that the Investment Policy has been reviewed and that any amendments have been made must be recorded by resolution, rule or ordinance. SECTION 2 INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy, 2. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES The City shall manage and invest its cash with four objectives, listed in order of priority: Preservation and Safety of Principal; Liquidity; Yield; and Prudence. All investments shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with State and Local Law. The City shall maintain a comprehensive cash management program that includes the prudent investment of available cash. Cash management is defined as the process of managing monies in order to increase cash availability and interest earnings on short- term investment of idle cash. 1. Preservation and Safety of Principal The primary objective of City investment activity is the preservation of principal in the overall portfolio. Each investment transaction shall be conducted in a manner designed to avoid principal losses, whether they are from securities defaults or erosion of market value. The manner in' which the City ensures safety of principal is presented in Section 4.2, "Ensuring Safety of Principal." 2. Maintenance of Adequate Liquidity The City investment portfolio shall be structured such that the City is able to meet all obligations in a timely manner. Maintenance of adequate liquidity is described in Section 4.3, "Ensuring Liquidity." 3. Return on Investments Consistent with State law, the City shall seek to optimize return on investments within the constraints of safety and liquidity. Investments (excluding assets managed under separate investment programs, such as in arbitrage restrictive programs) shall be made in permitted obligations at yields equal to or greater than the bond equivalent yield on United States Treasury obligations of comparable maturity. Other appropriate performance measures will be established by the Investment Committee. Specific policies regarding investment rate of return are presented in Section 4.4, "Achieving Investment Return Objectives." For bond issues to which Federal yield or arbitrage restrictions apply, the primary objectives shall be to obtain satisfactory market yields and to minimize the costs associated with investment of such funds. 2 City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 4. Prudence and Ethical Standards The standard of prudence used by the City shall be the "pmdent person rule" and shall be applied in the context of managing the overall portfolio within the applicable legal constraints. The prudent person rule is restated below: "Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence would exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived." In determining whether the Investment Officer(s) or Investment Advisor under contract has exercised prudence with respect to an investment decision, the determination shall be made taking into consideration the investment of all funds over which the Officer/Advisor had responsibility rather than a consideration as to the prudence of a single investment, and whether the investment decision was consistent with the written Investment Policy of the City. The Investment Officers, acting in accordance with written procedUres and exercising due diligence, Shall not be held personally responsible for a specific security's credit risk or market price changes, provided that these deviations are reported immediately. Specific policies describing the City's prudence and ethical standards are found in Section 4.5, "Responsibility and Controls." SECTION 3 INVESTMENT STRATEGY STATEMENT City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 3. INVESTMENT STRATEGY STATEMENT The City maintains portfolios that utilize four specific investment strategy considerations designed to address the unique characteristics of the fund groups represented in the portfolios. 1. The Operating Funds The investment strategy for operating funds has as its primary objective the assurance that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. The secondary objective is to create a portfolio structure which will experience minimal volatility during economic cycles. This may be accomplished by purchasing quality, short- to medium-term securities. The dollar weighted average maturity shall be calculated in accordance with GASB requirements. The weighted average matUrity of operating funds shall not exceed 548 days. Securities may not be purchased that have a final stated maturity date that exceeds five (5) years. 2. The Bond Debt Service Funds The investment strategy for bond debt service fund(s) has as its primary objective the assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt service obligation on the required payment date. Securities purchased shall not have a stated final maturity date that exceeds the next unfunded bond debt service payment date. 3. Bond Reserve Funds The investment strategy for bond reserve fund(s) has as its primary objective the ability to generate a dependable revenue stream to the appropriate debt service fund from securities with a low degree of volatility. Securities should be of high quality and, except as may be required by the Bond Ordinance specific to an individual issue, of short-to- intermediate-term maturities. The stated final maturity dates of securities held shall not exceed five (5) years. City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 4. Capital Projects Funds The investment strategy for capital projects funds portfolios has as its primary objective the assurance that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. These portfolios should include at least 10% in highly liquid securities to allow for flexibility and unanticipated project outlays. The stated final maturity dates of securities held should not exceed the estimated project completion date. To maximize the effective investment of assets, all funds needed for general obligations may be pooled into one account for investment purposes. The income derived from this account will be distributed to the various funds based on their average balances on a periodic basis. Proceeds of bond issues shall not be pooled with other assets of the City, but shall be maintained in the fund issuing the bonds with interest earnings on these invested proceeds recorded directly to that fund.

An executed copy of this agreement must be on file before the City will enter into any repurchase agreement with an issuer. (See Appendix B, "Master Repurchase Agreement".) 3. Collateralization Consistent with the requirements of State law, the City requires all bank deposits (including time deposits) to be federally insured or collateralized with eligible securities. Financial institutions serving as City Depositories will be required to sign an Agreement with the City and its safekeeping agent for the collateral, perfecting the city's rights to the collateral in case of default, bankruptcy or closure. The City shall not accept, as depository collateral, any security that is not specifically allowed to be held as a direct investment by the City portfolio (see 4.1). Repurchase agreements must also be collateralized in accordance with State law. Each issuer of repurchase agreements is City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy required to sign a copy of the City's Master Repurchase Agreement. An executed copy of this agreement must be on file before the City will enter into any repurchase agreements with an issuer. (See Appendix B, "Master Repurchase Agreement".) The City considers repurchase agreements to be simultaneous purchases and sales of securities as outlined in the Master Repurchase Agreement and not as collateralized loans. However, the underlying securities may be referred to as "collateral." Evidence of the pledged collateral shall be maintained by the Finance Director or a third party financial institution. All collateral shall be subject to inspection and audit by the Finance Director or the City independent auditors. (1) Allowable Collateral 1. Certificates of Deposit Eligible securities for collateralization of certificates of deposit are U.S. Treasury obligations and government agency securities. The eligibility of specific issues may . at times be restricted or prohibited because of current market conditions. 2. Repurchase Agreements Collateral underlying repurchase agreements is limited to U.S. government and agency obligations, which are eligible for wire transfer (i.e. book entry) to the City's designated safekeeping agent through the Federal Reserve System. (2) Collateral Levels Collateral is valued at current market plus interest accrued through the date of valuation. 1. Certificates of Deposit The market value of collateral pledged for certificates of deposit must at all times be equal to or greater than 102% of the par value of the certificate of deposit plus accrued interest, less the amount insured by the FDIC or its successors. Investment in eligible pooled Certificate of Deposit programs is authorized under this section. City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy 2. Repurchase Agreements The market value of collateral required to be pledged for repurchase agreements shall be a percentage of the par value of the agreement plus accrued interest and shall be maintained at the following levels: Collateral U.S. Treasury U.S. Government Maturity Securities Agency 1 year or less 102 % 102 % 1 year to 5 years 102 % 103 % Over 5 years 103 % 104 % (3) Monitoring Collateral Adequacy 1. Certificates of Deposit The City requires monthly reports with market values of pledged securities from all financial institutions with which the City has certificates of deposit. The City's Investment Officer 'will at least weekly monitor the adequacy of collateral. 2. Repurchase Agreements Weekly monitoring by the City's Investment Officer of all collateral underlying repurchase agreements is required. More frequent monitoring may be necessary during periods of market volatility. (4) Margin Calls 1. Certificates of Deposit If the collateral pledged for a certificate of dePosit falls below the 102% of the deposit, plus accrued interest less FDIC insurance, the institution will be notified by the City and will be required to pledge additional securities no later than the end of the next succeeding business day. 2. Repurchase Agreements Cit~ of Universit~ Park~ Texas - Investment Policy If the value of the collateral underlying a repurchase agreement falls below the margin maintenance levels specified above, the City will make a margin call unless the repurchase agreement is scheduled to mature within five business days and the amount is deemed to be immaterial. (5) Collateral Substitution Collateralized investments and certificates of deposit often require substitution of collateral. Any broker or financial institution requesting substitution must contact the Investment Officer(s) for approval and settlement. The substituted collateral's value will be calculated and substitution approved if its value is equal to or greater than the required value (See 4.2.1.3.2.2). The Investment Officer or must give immediate notification of the decision to the bank or the safekeeping agent holding the collateral. Substitution is allowable for all transactions, but should be limited, if possible, to minimize potential, administrative problems and transfer expense. The Investment Officer may limit substitution and assess appropriate fees if substitution becomes excessive or abusive. Collateral may be substituted only with the oral authorization of the Investment Officer, followed by written confirmations within 24 hours. (6) Collateral Reductions Should the collateral's market value exceed the required amount, any broker or financial institution may request approval from the Investment Officer to reduce collateral. Collateral reductions may be permitted only if the City's records indicate that the collateral's market value exceeds the required amount. Written confirmations of the collateral reduction should be received within 24 hours of the Investment Officer's approval. 4. Portfolio Diversification Risk of principal loss in the portfolio as a whole shall be minimized by diversifying investment types according to the following limitations. -12 ,City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy As discussed below, these limitations do not apply to bond proceeds. Investment Type: % of Portfolio · U.S. Treasury Notes/Bonds/Bills 100% · U.S. Agencies 60% · Local Government Investment Pools 50% · Repurchase Agreements 30% · Certificates of Deposit 30% · Money Market Mutual Funds 15% It is the policy of the City to diversify its investment portfolio so that reliance on any one issuer or broker will not place an undue financial burden on the City. Generally, the City should limit its repurchase agreement exposure with a single firm to no more than 15% of the value of the City's overall portfolio. To allow efficient and effective placement of proceeds from any bond sales, these limits may be exceeded for a maximum of five business days following the receipt of bond proceeds. (1) Bond Proceeds Proceeds of a single bond issue may be invested in a single security or investment if the Investment Committee determines that such an investment is necessary to comply with Federal arbitrage restrictions or to facilitate arbitrage record keeping and calculation. 5. Limiting Maturity In order to minimize risk of loss due to interest rate fluctuations, investment maturities will not exceed the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. Maturity guidelines by funds are as follows: (1) Operating Funds The dollar weighted average days to final stated maturity shall be 548 days or less. The Investment Officer will monitor the maturity level and make changes as appropriate. (2) Bond Proceeds, Bond Reserves, Debt Service Funds The investment maturity of bond proceeds (including reserves and debt service funds) shall be determined considering: 1. the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds, and; · 13 Ci,ty of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy the "temporary period" as defined by Federal tax law during which time bond proceeds may be invested at an unrestricted yield. After the expiration of the temporary period, bond proceeds subject to yield restriction shall be invested considering the anticipated cash flow requirements of the funds. 3. Safekeeping 1. Safekeeping Agreement The City shall contract with a bank or banks for the safekeeping of securities either owned by the City as a part of its investment portfolio or held as collateral to secure certificates of deposits or repurchase agreements. The Safekeeping Agreement shall clearly define the procedural steps for gaining access to the collateral should the City determine that the City funds are in jeopardy. The safekeeping institution, or Trustee, shall hold all aforementioned securities in an account at the Federal Reserve Bank that specifies City ownership of the account. The Safekeeping Agreement shall include the signatures of authorized representatives of the City, the firm pledging the collateral and the Trustee. 2. Safekeeping of Certificate of Deposit Collateral All collateral securing certificates of deposit must be held by a third party banking institution approved by the City, or collateral may be held at the Federal Reserve Bank. The City's ownership in collateral positions must be fully perfected. 3. Safekeeping of Repurchase Agreement Collateral The securities that serve as collateral for repurchase agreements with dealers must be delivered to a third-party custodian with which the City has established a third-party safekeeping agreement. The City's ownership of all securities that serve as collateral for repurchase agreements must be fully perfected. 3. Ensuring Liquidity Liquidity shall be achieved by matching investment maturities with forecasted cash flow requirements, by investing in securities with active secondary markets, and by investing in eligible money market mutual funds (MMMF's) and local government investment pools (LGIP's). 14 .Ci ,ty of Universi ,ty Park~ Texas - Investment Policy A security may be liquidated to meet unanticipated cash requirements, to re- deploy cash into other investments expected to outperform current holdings, or to otherwise adjust the portfolio. 4. Achieving Investment Return Objectives Investment selection for all funds shall be based on legality, appropriateness, liquidity, and risk/return considerations. The portfolios may be actively managed to enhance overall interest income. Active management will take place within the context of the "Prudent Person Rule." (see Section 2.4). 1. Securities Swaps The City may take advantage of security swap opportunities to improve portfolio yield. A swap which improves portfolio yield may be selected even if the transaction results in an accounting loss. 2. Competitive Bidding It is the policy of the City to require competitive bidding for all individual security purchases except for those transactions with money market mutual funds (MMMFs) and local govermnent investment pools (LGIP's) which are deemed to be made at prevailing market rates, and for government securities purchased at issue through a primary dealer at auction price. Rather than relying solely on yield, investment in MMMFs and LGIP's shall be based on criteria determined by the Investment Committee, including adherence to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines for MMMFs when appropriate. At least three bidders must be contacted in all transactions involving individual securities. Competitive bidding for security swaps is also required. Bids may be solicited in any manner provided by law. For those situations where it may be impractical or unreasonable to receive three bids for a transaction due to a rapidly changing market environment or to secondary market availability, documentation of a competitive market survey of comparable securities or an explanation of the specific circumstance must be included with .the transaction bid sheet. All bids received must be documented and filed for auditing purposes. 3. Methods of Monitoring Market Price The methods/sources to be used to monitor the price of investments that have been acquired with public funds shall be from sources deemed reliable by the Investment Officer, including primary or regional broker/dealers, established financial institutions providing portfolio management/accounting services, financial publications, such as the Wall City of University Park~ Texas - Investment Policy Street Journal, market information vendors such as Bloomberg or Telerate and market pricing services. 4. Benchmark Rate of Return As a general guideline, the City's cash management portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly meeting the average return on three-month U.S. Treasury Bills, or the average rate of 90-day Certificates of Deposit. These indices are considered benchmarks for risk-free investment transactions and therefore comprise a standard for the portfolio's rate of return. Additional benchmarks may be developed and recommended by the Investment Committee and used as a comparative performance measures for the portfolio. Additional benchmarks that may be considered for targeting by the Investment Committee include the Constant Maturity Treasury Bill with the maturity that most closely matches the weighted average maturity of the portfolio or a more customized index made up of blended Merrill Lynch Treasury/Agency indices. The investment program shall seek to augment rates of return above this threshold, consistent with legal restrictions and prudent investment principles. In a diversified portfolio, measured losses are inevitable and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio. 5. Responsibility and Control 1. Authority to Invest Authority to manage the City investment program is derived from a resolution of the City. Those authorized by said resolution are designated as Investment Officers of the City, and, in conjunction with the Investment Committee, are responsible for investment decisions and activities. The City reserves the right to contract with an external investment advisory firm to manage the investment assets, and the resulting resolution will grant investment authorization to the contracted firm. The Finance Director shall establish written procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this Investment Policy. 2. Bonding requirements/Standard of care Each of the authorized investment officers shall be a bonded employee. All participants in the investment process shall act responsibly as custodians of the public trust and shall exercise the judgment and care, under prevailing circumstances, that a prudent person would exercise in the management of the person's own affairs. City of University Parlq Texas - Investment Policy 3. Establishment of Internal Controls The Finance Director is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the entity are protected from loss, theft or misuse. The internal control structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. 4. Standard of Ethics City staff involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair the ability to make impartial investment decisions. City staff shall disclose to the City any material interests in financial institutions that conduct business with the City, and they shall further disclose positions that could be related to the performance of the City portfoli°.
