INTENDED USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS	FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4 THE FINANCE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS ADOPTED INVESTMENT AND SPENDING POLICIES FOR ENDOWMENT ASSETS TO PROVIDE A RELIABLE STREAM OF FUNDING TO ITS PROGRAMS WHILE SEEKING TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS. TO SATISFY THE LONG-TERM RATE-OF-RETURN OBJECTIVES, THE OPERA RELIES ON A TOTAL RETURN STRATEGY IN WHICH INVESTMENT RETURNS ARE ACHIEVED THROUGH BOTH CAPITAL APPRECIATION (REALIZED AND UNREALIZED) AND CURRENT YIELD (INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS). IN ORDER TO SUPPORT THE LONG-TERM HEALTH OF THE OPERA, THE FINANCE COMMITTEE HAS ESTABLISHED A SPENDING RATE POLICY WHERE THE ENDOWMENT SHALL ANNUALLY DISTRIBUTE A PERCENTAGE OF THE 12-QUARTER ROLLING AVERAGE FAIR VALUE ENDING ON MARCH 30 OF THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. IN 2015, THE PERCENTAGE RATE USED WAS 5%. FOR FUNDS WITH DONOR-IMPOSED ASSET ALLOCATIONS OR DISTRIBUTIONS, THE DISTRIBUTIONS CONFORM TO THE DONOR'S EXPRESSED WISHES. THIS SPENDING RATE POLICY IS CONSISTENT WITH THE OPERA'S OBJECTIVE TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS HELD IN PERPETUITY OR FOR A SPECIFIED TERM AS WELL AS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL REAL GROWTH THROUGH NET GIFTS AND INVESTMENT RETURN.
