to this Investment Policy and Strategy will require re-certification by each
                              business organization.

                              E.     The City’s Investment Committee will perform a strategy and
                              performance review at least semi-annually. The Committee will review and
                              act on any potential need for refinement or revision of the OPEB Trust’s
                              policies or strategies.

                       2.  STANDARDS OF CARE
                       The standard of care to be used shall be the “prudent person” standard as
                       established by the Act and shall be applied in the context of managing the overall
                       OPEB Trust Fund. The "prudent person" standard states that,

                              “Investments shall be made with  judgment and care, under prevailing
                              circumstances, that a person of prudence, discretion and intelligence would
                              exercise in the management of the person’s own affairs, not for speculation,
                              but for investment, considering the  probable safety of capital and the
                              probable income to be derived.”

                       In determining whether a Trustee has exercised prudence with respect to an
                       investment decision, the determination shall be made taking into consideration:
                       (1) the investment of all funds, or funds under the Trustee’s control, over which
                       the Trustee had responsibility rather than a consideration as to the prudence of a
                       single investment; and (2) whether the investment decision was consistent with
                       this written investment Policy.

                       3.  ETHICS AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
                       Employees of the City of Fort Worth, the Trustee or its Sub Advisors 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
                       their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Also, employees of the City
                       of Forth Worth involved in the investment process shall disclose any material
                       financial interests in financial institutions that conduct business with the City, and
                       they shall further disclose any material personal financial/investment positions
                       that could be related to the performance of the City’s investment program.
