Endowment Investment Policy Kentucky State University

This Statement of Investment Policy is issued by the Board of Regents of Kentucky State University in conjunction in with the endowment holdings of Kentucky State University. Pursuant to KRS 164A.560, the Board of Regents of Kentucky State University elects to receive, deposit, collect, retain, invest, disburse and account for funds received as contributions to the endowment and shall manage the gifts and donations in accordance with KRS 164A.550 to KRS 164A.630.

1. The Board of Regents

Kentucky State University is one of eight public higher education institutions in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and is governed by appropriate Kentucky revised Statutes and by the Board of Regents. The Board consists of 11 Regents, eight of whom are appointed by the Governor of the Commonwealth. One regent each is elected by the University faculty, staff and students.

II. The University President

The Kentucky State University President, by virtue of his/her office, has the responsibility for the management of the University's endowment holdings and to report to the Board of Regents at each quarterly Board meeting on the status of these holdings.

III. Investment Philosophy

The Board of Regents of Kentucky State University recognizes its fiduciary duty not only to invest the University's endowment holdings in formal compliance with the "Prudent Man Rule," but also manage those funds in continued recognition of the basic long-term nature of the University. The Board of Regents interprets this to mean, in addition to the specific guidelines and restrictions set forth in this document, that the assets of the University shall be actively managed, that is, investment decisions regarding the particular securities to be purchased or sold shall be the result of the conscious exercise of discretion. Further, the Board of Regents recognizes that, commensurate with its overall objective of maximizing long-range return while maintaining a high standard of portfolio quality and consistency of return, it is necessary that proper diversification of assets be maintained both among and within the classes of securities held. Within this context of active management and the necessity of

adherence to proper diversification, the Board of Regents relies upon appropriate professional advice.

IV. Investment Objectives

The Board of Regents realized that prudent investment management is a duty. In fulfillment of this duty, the Board of Regents recognizes that long-term objectives are most important, but it is also necessary that shorter-term benchmarks be used to assess the periodic performance of the investment program. The University anticipates annual spending of five percent (5%) of the average market value for the past three years, the amount of which shall be determined in January of each year and is fully described in its Endowment Spending Policy, which is fully incorporated by reference herein. Under no circumstances shall the amount allocated to endowed professorships be less than the amount allocated in the prior year.

V. Asset Allocation Guidelines

The University President will allocate the assets within the classes of investments which he/she considers to be appropriate. The Board of Regents believes that it is prudent to diversify endowment investments so as to minimize the risks of large losses and has established the following asset allocation ranges based upon the University's participation demographics, anticipated cash flow requirements and the expected returns of the capital markets. The ranges are guidelines which may be interpreted as a general statement of the Board of Regents' position regarding investment risk.

*Based on market value

As a general policy, the Board, in keeping with its responsibility as Trustee and wherever consistent with its fiduciary responsibility, encourages the investment of the University's endowment assets in the securities of corporations which provide a positive contribution to the economy of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. However, where any security is not a prohibited investment under Kentucky State Statute and where a security is on the approved buy list, discretion will be

granted to the appointed investment managers in the selection of such securities and timing of transactions consistent with the following guidelines and restrictions:

A. Equity Investments (Stocks)

Investments may be made in common stock, securities convertible into common stock and in convertible preferred stock of publicly traded corporations. With the approval of the University President, options may be written against equity positions in the University's endowment holding account.

The Kentucky State University Board of Regents approves a 10 percent (10%) allocation to the international markets for the KSU portfolio. In addition, based on an S&P 500 equity mandate, the combination of mid cap, small cap and international investments be limited to 20 percent (20%) of the equity portfolio (amendment approved by KSU Board of Regents October 26, 2007).

B. Fixed Income Investments

Investments may be made in the various classes of fixed income instruments as follows:

Corporate Bonds. Publicly traded bonds are to be selected and managed so as to assure an appropriate balance in quality and maturities consistent with current market and economic conditions. Although active bond management is encouraged, excessive emphasis on short-term trading is not considered appropriate. Nonconvertible bonds may be selected from among those rated within the top three categories of the recognized bond rating services. Private or direct placement bonds may be purchased only upon specific approval of each issue by the University President.

Government and Agency Bonds. Investments may be made in any U.S. Government issued debt instrument with an initial maturity of over one year and in any debt instrument issued by agencies of the U.S. Government with an initial maturity of over one year and which are guaranteed by the U.S. Government.

☐ ☐ ☐ ☐

C. Cash Equivalent Securities

Selection of particular short-term instruments, whether viewed as liquidity reserves or as alternative investment vehicles, should be determined primarily by the safety and liquidity of the investment and only secondarily by the available yield. The following short-term investment vehicles, with the exception of commercial paper, which requires specific purchase approval by the University President, are considered acceptable:

Repurchase Agreements – Repurchase agreements which are collateralized by the United States Government issues.

U.S. Government Issues – All obligations of the U.S. Government and its agencies.

Certificates of Deposit – Banks domiciled in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. If the dollar amount of certificates of deposit and/or cash equivalent securities exceed the FDIC insurance limit, the bank must pledge securities in an amount equal to that amount not covered by FDIC insurance.

VI. Standards of Measurement

The following represent the standards of measurement to be used as guidelines for the various classes of investments of Kentucky State University endowment holdings. They are to be computed and expressed quarterly on a time-weighted total return basis:

Equity Investments – Exceed the return on the Standard and Poor's 500 Composite Index.

Fixed Income (Corporate, Government and Agency Funds) – Exceed the return on the Lehman Brothers Kuhn Loeb Government/Corporate Bond Index.

Cash Equivalents – Exceed the rate on 90-day treasury bills.

Endowment Spending Policy Kentucky State University

This policy statement is issued by the Board of Regents of Kentucky State University for guidance in the spending of endowment fund earnings.

Fiduciary Responsibility

The Board of Regents of Kentucky State University has a fiduciary responsibility to comply with all restrictions imposed by donors on gifts for endowment purposes. An endowment is established when a gift is received from a donor, under a donatives' instrument, who wishes to maintain the quality in faculty, students and facilities of the University. The Board of Regents recognizes the importance of establishing policies and procedures to meet the University's development needs and to attract private support. This policy is to establish administrative guidance in accepting and administering gifts in a fiduciarily prudent and efficient manner.

Endowments are divided into the following three categories:

Permanent Endowments

Permanent endowments are assets designated by the donor to be held in perpetuity. The corpus of permanent endowments may never be spent. Earnings and capital gains must be expended in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the donor. Permanent endowments are often called “true” or “pure” endowments.

Term Endowments

Term endowments are assets designated by the donor to be held until a particular date or event or condition occurs. The term endowment may terminate upon the occurrence of the date, event or condition established by the donor. The endowment corpus may then be expended in accordance with the terms and conditions specified by the donor.

Quasi-Endowments

Certain institutional funds may be set aside and be maintained as endowments. The Board of Regents, acting through University Administration, may specify the use of assets and spending policy for endowment income and earnings and set other terms and conditions related to the fund. The terms and conditions of the quasi-endowment may be changed or terminated by the Board of Regents.

Kentucky State University Endowment Spending Policy As presented to the Board of Regents July 2011

☐ ☐ ☐ ☐

Investment Policy

The Board of Regents establishes the conditions under which an endowment may be accepted and established. No endowment shall be accepted in which the donor directs the investment transactions or holdings or may approve investment policy strategy. The endowment fund shall be under the sole control of the Board of Regents once the Board of Regents accepts the gift.

The Board of Regents authorizes all endowments to be invested in instruments as specified under a separate written Endowment Investment Policy and is deposited with an investment manager established for the purpose of managing endowments for public and private educational institutions.

Spending Policy

The purpose of the Spending Policy is to set objectives relative to distribution of endowment earnings while protecting the real value of the endowment corpus and ensure that spending transfers are performed on a predictable, consistent basis for the endowment purpose. Endowments are pooled and invested in instruments that provide income and gains in accordance with the University's current Endowment Investment Policy. A unitized approach may be used to allocate investments and investment earning to each endowment. Spending distributions shall be made not less than annually to transfer a certain percentage of endowment earnings to the operating budget.

Kentucky State University has established an endowment spending policy that attempts to balance the long-term objective of transgenerational purchasing power of endowments with providing a reasonable, predictable and sustainable level of income to support current needs. Spending is derived from interest, dividends and capital appreciation on endowments.

Market values and returns are reported net of fees. Each endowment is allocated proportional charges of investment management expense as well as interest, dividends, and capital appreciation. Each endowment fund grows through additional gifts and its share of investment income.

The spending policy is not to exceed 5% of the three (3) year moving average of fiscal year end endowment market values using the most recent previous fiscal year plus any funds available but not spent in previous fiscal years. There will be no spending allowed in the first year a fund is established unless a specifically stated exemption exists with the original donatives' documents. In no case shall spending deteriorate the initial corpus unless specifically stated in the original donatives' documents.

Kentucky State University Endowment Spending Policy As presented to the Board of Regents July 2011

Spendable amounts shall be computed and distributed annually at June 30. Any spending recommendations shall be approved by the Board of Regents.

Review

This spending policy will be reviewed annually by the University Treasurer with recommendations for modifications submitted to the Board of Regents for approval.
