Hi Veronica,

Just some clarification. On the pooled fund worksheets we carve out the management fees.

Are you just looking for all the other detail in the Net Investment Income/Expense account excluding the management fees. - Yes

Also we do provide this information yearly with our PERAC filings. Is this something you will need new and require on a quarterly basis. - Yes

JOSEPH I. MARTIN, DEPUTY EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR - PERAC TOBACCO COMPANY LIST - 7_29_1998 - PERAC Memos.pdf;


David, 

In my opinion the reference to "new" implies purchases of securities made after 1997 when Chapter 119 went into effect. When a company which derives more than 15% of its revenue from the sale of tobacco products is placed on the restricted list it should be redeemed prudently. I am confident Portfolio Manager Rachel Carey of Eaton Vance plans to take correct action in stating she will redeem the holding in a practical way. Nonetheless, it is the responsibility of members the Plymouth County Retirement Board, under the able leadership of its Chairman Hon. Thomas J. O'Brien to bring the portfolio into compliance at all times. I hope this explanation is sufficient in clarity, succinctness and is informative to
you.

Take care,
Tom

Hi David, 

We purchased in 2017. The paragraph that Tom provided is what we already found on the website. Although it is
not an new investment, I wasn't sure if the second part of the statement meant we should sell. In the event a portfolio is not in compliance, the manager must bring the portfolio into compliance by divesting in a prudent manner. We can certainly hold off on selling if you would like to clarify with PERAC because it is not a new purchase. Below are the trade details. Please let me know if I can provide
any other information that may be helpful.

 When did Eaton Vance purchase this investment? I ask because I read PERAC's reply that if you purchased it at a
time the security was not on the prohibited list it would not need to be redeemed as it is not a "new" investment.
Perhaps you read it differently than me, and I will be happy to seek clarification based on the relevant dates.

Hello Rachel, 

Thank you for your cooperation and inquiry. Attached is PERAC Memo #32, 1998 that provides guidance on Chapter 119 of the Acts of 1997. That statute prohibits retirement systems from making any new investments in stocks, securities, or other obligations of any company which derives more than 15% of its revenue from the sale of tobacco products. In the event a portfolio is not in compliance, the manager must bring the portfolio into compliance by divesting in a

Hi Peter,

Hope your Friday is going well. We have kind of a unique situation that came up with a holding in your portfolio. As you are aware, we are constantly monitoring the PERAC Tobacco list for prohibited securities and noticed a holding we've held in the account since 2017 was added to the list in January 2019. The security details are below. This holding was not on the previous lists published on the PERAC website. Could you please confirm that we should sell this holding? I believe there is currently a small unrealized loss on this holding and I can follow up

You asked me about our experience in responding to MA Consultant RFP's. I had Suzanne go back and
make a list for me for the 2018/2019 RFP's that we responded to...that list is attached.

 Out of the 20 responses in 2018, 4 of them were rebids of Dahab clients (North Attleboro, Shrewsbury, Franklin County, Taunton) and we retained all four. We presented to only 4 (Norwood was a joke...one trustee was reading a newspaper. Dahab was the only presenter)..3 have retained their consultant, Quincy has not notified anyone yet. Haverhill had finalists present and we were not invited. The
remaining 11 we either never heard or they simply retained their consultant.

Saugus that we discussed was in 2017.

Good afternoon Tom and Derek,

Thank you again for your time and feedback regarding the RFP documents for Concord and Natick. 

We have attached updated public notices with very modest revisions and the RFPs themselves taking
your feedback and comments into consideration. 

With regards to actuarial services for Concord, the Board does receive valuations annually so we kept that provision. We updated the credentialing and made some tweaks to the report framework so hopefully that is a bit more clear. 

We also removed some language on the mandatory contract terms and conditions and used your
suggested language for interviews/oral presentations.

 We did keep the Vendor Disclosures as a request since it appears on the Board's checklist for procurement for these services in order to avoid confusion down the road when Boards submit procurement filings to PROSPER.


Please let us know if you have any other comments or concerns.

Best regards,
Maura

Derek,

These are not our documents, so I am unable to correct them for you. I wish it was that easy.
As these agreements are considered private and confidential between those parties, it is unlikely that they will share a fully clean copy. I'd be happy to try to set up a call with you and Trilantic to
discuss. They may be more willing to share things verbally, when they are not subject to FOIA. Recall TA Associates allowed you to view their agreements in their offices, but would not share them
with you electronically or give you a copy. 

With that in mind, can you please help me understand what it is specifically you are looking for? We are more likely to get you what you need when we know exactly what you are looking for. As you can see from the agreements, neither placement agent receives a fee that is specific to the investment of any Mass public fund (PCRA or Quincy in this case). The fees earned by Evercore is based on total assets raised in the vehicle (perhaps they would be willing to share PCRA and Quincy's "pro-rata share" of the placement agent fee based on commitment?). The fees paid to Magenta, is specific to Middle East investors, so also not relevant to Mass Public funds. Also, any fees paid to a placement agent is offset against management fees, so it does not "cost" any investor or negatively impact the
investors return. 

Thanks,
Dan

The agreement still has too many redactions. We have the same issue with Quincy. Please correct.

Importance: High

Derek- 
For Trilantic and PCRA, attached is the placement agent form, the agreement with Evercore (the Fund level placement agent), the Everore biographies, and the agreement with Magenta (the Middle
East placement agent). This was all of the placement agent information we received from Trilantic. We had some technical issues getting these docs to PCRA, so I am assuming based on Adam's email below, that you did not receive the Evercore agreement? I wouldn't imagine that you would be seeking the redacted information for a placement agent that seeks only Middle East investors.
Please let me know if this satisfies your request.
Thanks,
 Dan
