    The International Active EAFE Strategy outperformed its MSCI EAFE benchmark by 1.3 percentage points net of fees in 2013,gaining 24.1% while the benchmark rose 22.8%. Country and stock selection were both positive.

    Country selection added to returns during the year. An overweight position in Japan added to returns as Abes arrows propelled themarket. Underweight positions in Australia and Singapore also helped performance. On the negative side, our positioning in

    Continental Europe subtracted from returns. Stock selection beat the benchmark in 2013. Our holdings outperformed in the United Kingdom and Continental Europe. Stock

    selection was hurt by our positions in the emerging markets.

    Outlook: Current valuations in the global equity markets reveal no large factor or group of stocks that appears substantially cheaper thananother. There is a dearth of valuation dispersion between geographies, between industries, or between styles such as small and large. Asa result of the relative lack of thematic valuation opportunity, alpha will have to be delivered via good old-fashioned stock picking. But,while average valuations between countries, sectors, and factors are in a relatively tight band, the valuation dispersion of stocks withinthose buckets is still fairly wide, meaning there are still plenty of inefficiencies and mispriced companies to provide excess profits.

    In fact, we believe there are particularly cheap stocks in Europe, Japan, and Emerging Asia. In Europe, value still resides in companiesgeared to a domestic recovery. Industrials, materials, and financials that have significant business exposure to the European economyrepresent a compelling opportunity. Many of these companies are in the midst of restructuring, cutting costs, and reducing leverage.Companies that are able to achieve breakeven or even positive cash flow on currently depressed revenue levels should handsomely rewardinvestors if the European recovery becomes more robust.

    The European economy remains the thing to watch. While a recovery in Europe is clearly being discounted by the equity markets,growth is anticipated to be modest. Anything better would certainly be a surprise and markets should rally correspondingly. Theupcoming Asset Quality Review by the ECB could be a source of good news if it reveals solid balance sheets in the banking sector.Healthy capital positions combined with nascent underlying loan demand will be the true signs of a sustainable recovery in Europe.

    Japan continues to pursue structural reform under Abes Three Arrows program. The most important policy remains the first arrow ofmonetary stimulus intended to create nominal asset price increases. Margins in Japan are still very low and operating leverage is so highthat, even with modest restructuring and a modicum of pricing power, corporate profits could improve dramatically. With currentearnings, valuation looks fair but if policy measures achieve their goals the market is compellingly cheap. The equity market will continueto favor those companies that should benefit from a modestly devaluing yen such as banks, retailers, and industrials. In the midst ofthese broader themes there can still be found a cohort of Japanese companies that continue their march toward greater efficiency andhigher profitability, and that will reward investors regardless of what happens in the broader economy.

    In emerging markets, there is the appearance of extreme value, but those stocks that are optically cheap come with high risk. There are

    only a few countries in aggregate selling below 10 times earnings and all of them are in the emerging markets: China, Russia, Turkey, andKorea. We are most excited about Korea and Turkey. Korea has been out of favor with investors for several years and, as a result, anumber of franchises with strong competitive positions can be bought on the cheap. Turkey has some isolated opportunities but it is astruggle to find enough liquidity to make these ideas impactful. In Russia, value is found primarily in the resource sector and comes withan uncomfortable amount of ongoing geopolitical risk.

    China continues to be a worry for us. While the slowing economy has certainly been recognized by markets, the extent of bad loans andhidden leverage in the banking system has the potential for catastrophe. The Chinese economy has yet to fully digest the massive creditexpansion thrust upon it by policy makers after the global financial crisis. The middle kingdom could find a way to muddle through, butsystemic risk is high.

    The major economic themes of 2013 are intact as we enter 2014. The United States will continue to lead other regions, mainly Europe, ina slow recovery from economic malaise. Deleveraging by U.S. consumers and European sovereign governments will still act as agovernor on growth, but a counterbalance will be provided by loose monetary policy. While Europe in particular is not out of the woods,

    global macroeconomic conditions have a trajectory of modest but steady improvement. China contains risk, but as long as the rest of theworld is on the mend, any trouble there should be relatively isolated.

    With few thematic valuation opportunities in the global equity markets, the burden for alpha will rest squarely on good stock selection.Fortunately, there are plenty of forgotten and neglected companies that are either restructuring their business or benefiting from thebetter prevailing economic climate. Either way, we believe these companies will surprise market expectations and provide those earlycontrarian investors with strong returns.

    The International Active Foreign Small Companies Strategy outperformed its S&P Developed ex-U.S. Small Cap benchmark by 2.9percentage points in 2013, gaining 28.9% net of fees while the benchmark rose 26.1%.

    Country selection added to returns during the year. An underweight position in Canada helped performance.

    Stock selection beat the benchmark in 2013. Holdings in Japan, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Korea outperformed. Stock

    Outlook: Current valuations in the global equity markets reveal no large factor or group of stocks that appears substantially cheaper thananother.

    The International Intrinsic Value Strategy returned +6.8% net of fees during the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to the broad market MSCI EAFE index,which returned +5.7%, and the MSCI EAFE Value benchmark, which returned +6.3%.

    In the strategy, stock selection was primarily responsible for the outperformance relative to EAFE while sector exposures, country allocation, and currencyallocation also added value.

    On a sector basis, selection was strongest within Financials, Energy, and Utilities although our Industrials underperformed. By country, our stocks in theUnited Kingdom added the most value while those in Italy also contributed. Weak returns from our stocks in Japan and Germany detracted from returns.

    Individual stock positions that were significant contributors to relative performance included overweights in energy company BP (U.K.), pharmaceuticalAstraZeneca (U.K.), and financial Banco Santander (Spain). Stock positions that detracted included overweights in auto maker Peugeot (France) and financialQBE Insurance (Australia) and an underweight in telecommunication services company Softbank (Japan).

    Sector exposures (as a result of stock selection) added value, largely from our overweight to Telecommunication Services, which performed well, andunderweight to Consumer Staples, which did not.

    Country allocation had a positive impact mainly from our underweight position in Switzerland, which underperformed, and overweight position in Spain,which outperformed.

    Currency allocation helped slightly mainly from an underweight position in the Australian dollar, which declined.

    Performance was not quite as good relative to the MSCI EAFE Value index, which benefited from a smaller weight in the weak Consumer Staples sector andmore exposure in the stronger Telecommunication Services and Energy sectors.

    The International Intrinsic Value Strategy returned +25.6% net of fees during the calendar year 2013, compared to the broad marketMSCI EAFE index, which returned +22.8%, and the MSCI EAFE Value benchmark, which returned +23.0%.

    In the Strategy, stock selection was primarily responsible for the outperformance relative to EAFE while sector exposures andcurrency allocation also added value. Country allocation had little net impact.

    On a sector basis, stock selection was strongest within Financials, Consumer Discretionary, Energy, and Materials, but weak inTelecommunication Services. By country, our stocks in the United Kingdom and France added the most value while those in Italy,Australia, and Finland also contributed. Weak returns from our stocks in Germany and Japan detracted from returns.

    Individual stock positions that were significant contributors to relative performance included overweights in wireless telecomsVodafone (U.K.) and KDDI Corp. (Japan) and technology company Nokia (Finland). Stock positions that detracted includedoverweights in technology company Research In Motion (Canada), energy company Royal Dutch Shell (U.K.), and utility E.On(Germany).

    Sector exposures (as a result of stock selection) added value, largely from our overweight to Telecommunication Services, whichperformed well, and underweights to Materials and Consumer Staples, which did not. Overweights in the weak Energy and Utilitiessectors along with an underweight in the strong Consumer Discretionary sector detracted.

    Currency allocation helped slightly, mainly from an underweight position in the Australian dollar, which declined, and overweight inthe euro, which appreciated.

    Country allocation had little meaningful impact as the benefit from overweighting Japan, which outperformed, and underweightingAustralia, which underperformed, was offset by the negative impact from overweighting Italy, which underperformed.

    Performance was essentially the same relative to the MSCI EAFE Value index, which benefited from a smaller weight in the weakMaterials sector but was hurt by less exposure in the strong Consumer Discretionary sector.

    Outlook: The international developed markets 2013 advance highlights the need for strong investment discipline and process. Ourinvestment process emphasizes analysis over emotion. Whether the market is in the grips of fear, greed, or somewhere in between, wewill focus on finding the most undervalued opportunities offered up by market conditions.

    Forward-looking statements are based on the reasonable beliefs of GMO. There can be no guarantee that any forward-looking statementwill be realized.

    GMO International Growth StrategyInception: 11/30/01; Benchmark: MSCI EAFE Growth Index and MSCI EAFE Index

    The International Growth Strategy returned +23.6% net of fees during the calendar year 2013, compared to the MSCI EAFE Growthbenchmark, which returned +22.5%, and the broad market MSCI EAFE index, which returned +22.8%.

    In the Strategy, stock selection was primarily responsible for the outperformance relative to EAFE Growth while sector exposures andcurrency allocation also added value. Country allocation had little impact.

    On a sector basis, stock selection was strongest within Consumer Discretionary, but weak in Telecommunication Services and HealthCare. By country, our stocks in France, Sweden, Australia, and Canada added the most value. Weak returns from our stocks in Japandetracted from returns.

    Individual stock positions that were significant contributors to relative performance included an underweight position in metals &mining company BHP Billiton (U.K./Australia) and overweights in financial Lloyds Banking Group (U.K.) and auto maker MazdaMotor Corp. (Japan). Stock positions that detracted included underweights in auto maker Toyota Motor Corp. (Japan) andtelecommunication services companies Softbank (Japan) and BT Group (U.K.).

    Sector exposures (as a result of stock selection) added value, largely from our underweight to Materials, the weakest sector, andoverweights to Telecommunication Services and Health Care, which performed well.

    Currency allocation was helped by an underweight position in the Australian dollar, which declined, but hurt somewhat by anunderweight in the Swiss franc, which also declined.

    Country allocation had little meaningful impact as the benefit from underweighting Australia and France, which underperformed, wasoffset by the negative impact from overweighting Germany, which underperformed, and several other positions.

    Outlook: The international developed markets 2013 advance highlights the need for strong investment discipline and process. Ourinvestment process emphasizes analysis over emotion. Whether the market is in the grips of fear, greed, or somewhere in between, wewill focus on finding the most attractive opportunities offered up by market conditions.

    The International Core Equity Strategy returned +7.1% net of fees during the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to the MSCI EAFEindex, which returned +5.7%.

    In the strategy, stock selection was primarily responsible for the outperformance relative to EAFE while sector exposures, countryallocation, and currency allocation also added value.

    On a sector basis, selection was strongest within Consumer Discretionary, Utilities, Financials, Energy, and Materials although ourTelecommunication Services underperformed. By country, our stocks in the United Kingdom added the most value while those inItaly, France, and Hong Kong also contributed. Weak returns from our stocks in Japan detracted from returns.

    Individual stock positions that were significant contributors to relative performance included overweights in energy company BP

    (U.K.), pharmaceutical AstraZeneca (U.K.), and financial Banco Santander (Spain). Stock positions that detracted included overweightsin auto maker Peugeot (France), financial QBE Insurance (Australia), and utility Tokyo Electric Power (Japan).

    Sector exposures (as a result of stock selection) added value, largely from our overweight to Telecommunication Services, whichperformed well, and underweight to Consumer Staples, which did not.

    Country allocation had a positive impact mainly from our underweight position in Switzerland, which underperformed.

    Currency allocation helped slightly mainly from an underweight position in the Australian dollar, which declined.

    Performance Net of Fees1

    The Currency Hedged International Equity Strategy returned +7.3% net of fees during the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to theMSCI EAFE (Hedged) index, which returned +6.3%.

    Hedging added to returns for U.S. dollar-based investors as currencies declined on average relative to the U.S. dollar in the quarter.

    Among the major currencies, the Japanese yen fell by 7%, the Australian dollar by 4%, while the euro, British pound, and Swiss francall gained about 2%. The unhedged EAFE index returned +5.7%.

    The Currency Hedged International Equity Strategy was invested in the International Intrinsic Value Strategy during the period. Performance of the Currency Hedged International Equity Strategy relative to the MSCI EAFE (Hedged) index was helped by the

    outperformance of the International Intrinsic Value Strategy versus its style benchmark.
