3 Independent Auditor's Report Board of Directors Hand Composite Employee Benefit Trust Houston, Texas We have audited the accompanying financial statements of selected funds ( Retirement 2015, Retirement 2025, Retirement 2035, Aggressive, Moderate, Conservative ) included in the Hand Composite Employee Benefit Trust ("Trust" or "s"), which statements comprise the statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, as of, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

14 Notes to Financial Statements Note 1: Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations Hand Composite Employee Benefit Trust ("HB&T" or "the Trust") was created in order to provide broad and uniform diversification programs for pension and profit sharing plans which, having complied with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the IRC), are exempt from taxation under the provisions of the IRC. The Trust is comprised of 59 funds (the s); the financial statements of six of those funds are included in this report. For those funds with more than one class of units, each class has equal rights as to earnings and assets except that each class bears different distribution, shareholder servicing and transfer agent expenses. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of units based on its relative net assets. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of investment income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Investment Valuation All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value. Transfers in and out of Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) and Level 3 (significant unobservable inputs) are recognized on the period ending date. Investment Transactions Investment transactions are recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments are determined using the identified cost basis. Investment Income and Distribution of Income Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Investment income is allocated ratably on the valuation dates among all participants. No distributions are made to participants in the s until units owned are redeemed, at which time the market value of redeemed units is distributed. Investment income and realized gains (if any) earned by the s are reinvested, thereby increasing the respective unit values. 12

15 Notes to Financial Statements Valuation of Participants' Interest Units of participation may be purchased or redeemed on the valuation dates at the fair value per unit on such valuation dates. All s are valued daily. Federal Income Taxes The s comply with the requirements under Section 501(a) of the IRC and apportion all of their taxable income to their participants. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Subsequent Events Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of the Independent Auditor's Report, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Investment Management Advisors The investment management advisors for each are as follows: Retirement 2015 Retirement 2025 Retirement 2035 Aggressive Moderate Conservative Investment Management Advisors Fiduciary Consulting Group, LLC Fiduciary Consulting Group, LLC Fiduciary Consulting Group, LLC Fiduciary Consulting Group, LLC Fiduciary Consulting Group, LLC Fiduciary Consulting Group, LLC Note 2: Investment Advisory Fees and Other Transactions With Affiliates The s are charged an administrative fee by HB&T for trustee/administrative services (fund accounting services, transfer agency services, trustee services, etc.). The s have also entered into investment advisory and service agreements with various third-party advisors. These fees compensate the advisors for the services they provide and for expenses borne by the advisors under the various agreements. The table on the following page indicates the fees charged each of the s and the various classes of units within the s (as a percentage of net assets). These charges are calculated using each 's average daily net assets. 13

21 Notes to Financial Statements Note 5: Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the year ended. Short Term Investments. Short term investments, including money market funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Exchange-traded s. Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Common Trust s. Common trust fund investments are valued using net asset value of those funds and are included as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The tables on the following pages presents the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at December 31,
