manner
โ Portfolios are constructed using a market S&P IFCI - Emerging Markets
capitalization based index methodology
S&P 700 International
โ No stock picking

โ Value over Growth

โ Momentum

๏ต Atlas believes that transactions costs have a large
impact on performance over time
โ Commissions are a relatively small portion of costs
โ Market impact is a larger portion
โ Tax impacts are the highest cost and almost
completely ignored by most equity managers
because performance is reported pre tax

PERFORMANCE DISCLOSURE
Atlas Equity Composite consists of all discretionary equity accounts.
The composite primarily represents portfolios that are managed based on an objective of value and momentum using individual shares of large cap
U.S. and International companies. The composite also consists of currency, interest rate, and equity futures, as well as ETFs for small
capitalization and REIT exposures. Accounts that are below a certain dollar value may be invested primarily in ETFs as a basket of individual
securities are not practical due to transaction costs.
For comparison purposes the composite is measured against the S&P 500 Total Return Index. The S&P 500 Total Return Index is a market
capitalization-weighted total return index of widely held large capitalization companies generally regarded as representative of the US stock market.
The S&P Total Return 500 Index assumes the reinvestment of dividends back into the S&P 500 Index. Market indices are unmanaged and do not
reflect the deduction of fees or expenses. You cannot invest in an Index and the performance of the Index does not represent the performance of
any specific investment.
Atlas Capital Advisors LLC has prepared and presented this report in compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPSยฎ).
While Atlas Capital Advisors LLC has made every effort to ensure the accuracy of this information, it does not warrant the accuracy of such
information and the information has not been audited by a independent performance auditing firm. Additional information regarding policies for
calculating and reporting returns is available upon request.
Results are based on fully discretionary accounts under management, including those accounts no longer with the firm. Past performance is not
indicative of future results. Market, economic and company specific conditions are considered during the investment selection process.
The U.S. Dollar is the currency used to express performance. Returns are presented net of management fees and include the reinvestment of all
dividends, capital gains and other earnings. Net of fee performance is calculated using actual fees. The composite dispersion presented is an
asset-weighted quarterly standard deviation calculated for the accounts in the composite.
The Atlas Equity Composite was created January 1, 2004. Atlas Capital Advisors LLC is an independently owned registered investment advisor.
The firm maintains a complete list and description of composites, which is available upon request.
