IMPORTANT INFORMATION

1. Uniplan Investment Counsel (“Uniplan”) is a boutique investment firm, with roots dating back to 1984, that manages a variety of portfolios primarily for US clients. Uniplan maintains a complete list and description of composites that is available upon request.

2. The composite was created January 1, 2022. Performance is calculated in US dollars utilizing a time-weighted total rate of return. Total return for the composite is represented by the asset-weighted returns of the portfolios within the composite. Trade-date valuation is used.

3. Gross Performance is net of all transaction costs and Net Performance is net of transaction costs, investment management fee, and any custodial fees.

4. The benchmark for the composite is the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500).

5. The S&P 500 is a market-capitalization-weighted index of the 500 largest U.S. publicly traded companies.

6. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. The index figures do not reflect any deduction for fees, expenses or taxes.

7. Investing in securities entails risk. The Uniplan Managers portfolio may entail above-average risk since growth companies pay few dividends and are typically more volatile than slower-growing companies with high dividends. Diversification cannot assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.

8. The dispersion of annual returns is measured by the standard deviation of asset-weighted portfolio returns represented within the composite for the full year. The standard deviation of the annual returns for the period January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2026 is 22.51% for the composite and 15.27% for the S&P 500 Index.

9. The composite includes fee-paying discretionary accounts, and may contain non-fee paying discretionary accounts, with similar investment objectives. The composite excludes accounts with special investment mandates or restrictions and accounts for which only a model portfolio is provided. The composite doesn’t have a minimum size criterion for composite membership. Leverage is not used in this composite as a means to generate higher returns. Individual account holdings may vary depending on numerous factors including the size of an account, cash flows, and account restrictions.

10. There have been no changes in the personnel responsible for the management of this composite.

11. The composite contains both traditional and wrap fee portfolios. Uniplan has a flexible and negotiable fee schedule reflecting the differences in size, composition and servicing needs of clients’ accounts. A complete description of investment advisory fees is contained in Uniplan’s Form ADV Part 2A and/or Form CRS which are available upon request.

12. Uniplan is an independent investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Registration does not imply a certain level of skill or training. More information about Uniplan including our investment strategies, fees and objectives can be found in our ADV Part 2A and/or Form CRS which are available upon request.

13. Uniplan does not claim GIPS Compliance. The performance has been verified by an independent source as of 1/01/2022 – 12/31/2024. Individual account performance may vary from the results shown because of differences in inception date, restrictions and other factors.

14. This information is not an offer to buy or sell a security nor does it constitute investment advice or an offer to provide investment advisory or other services. All information is subject to correction or change.

15. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. All investing involves risk, including the loss of principal and there is no guarantee that investment objectives will be met.
