Re: Domestic Equity Trading Direction Letter
Dear Mr. Mirsberger,
This letter will confirm our arrangement concerning brokerage commissions for the Viilage of
Tequesta General Employees' Pension Plan. (herein referred to as "the Fund"). The Board of
Trustees primary concern and focus is to receive best execution for trades done on behalf of the
Fund. Accordingly, you are directed to seek best execution through your established brokerage
trading houses, electronic trading platforms and recapture brokers. If the Fund has contracted
with vendor(s) to provide recapture services for the Fund, we will attach a schedule of these
providers for your information and potential use. Best execution, which is defined solely by the
investment manager, includes but is not limited to, the net effect of commissions paid, market
impact, timeliness of transaction and opportunity cost.
To ensure all your security transactions have been executed consistent with your obligation to
seek best execution in each trade, we require a quarterly accounting of all trading activity done
on behalf of the Fund. Please send this trading report to research(c�boqdahnqroup.com within
15 days after the end of each calendar quarter.
Please have your traders inform the commission recapture desks, indicated in the Recapture
Provider Contact Information section of this letter, that transactions for our account are to be
credited to the Fund's commission recapture account.
Any other questions regarding this relationship should be directed to my attention.
Sincerely,
Authorized Signer
