Eric,


Thanks for getting back to me.....I'm around this week....would a call
at 3 pm on either Wed. or Thurs. afternoon work for you.....if so, let
me know which you prefer.


Strong momentum continues.....BMPEX is still ranked in the top 1% YTD
and over the past 12 mos as of this morning. We are in the 8th inning
of winning a new $150 mm institutional account from a large publically
traded insurance company and last night Morningstar Magazine contacted
me and indicated that they wanted to do a profile of both me and the
Fund (should be a nice piece to put in front of prospects)....


My point here is to not express hubris at all, but just to say that I'm
hopeful that we can work something out.....working together I believe
that we can translate the momentum into significant success.....


Best,


Zac

Zac-


Thanks for your response. Sorry for the delay on our end replying to
your email - Hunter has been traveling and Arlene and I wanted to sit
down with him and discuss with him in person.


If you have time next week, perhaps Arlene and I could get on a call
with you and give you our thoughts on the below arrangement.


Let us know what your schedule is like.


Best,


Eric

Hunter / Eric,


Apologies for the delay in getting back to you....things have been busy
on this end....but a good kind on busy.


I remain very hopeful that we can find a way to work together as I am
confident that our approach to investing will be compelling to your
contacts.


As an update, our recent performance has been outstanding. Year-to-date
(thru 07/21/11) BMPEX (the Beck, Mack & Oliver Partners Fund on which I
am the lead portfolio manager) is up 13.8% and is ranked in the top 1%
of the Large / Blend Category by Morningstar and over the past 12 months
BMPEX also is in the top 2% relative to its peer group of almost 2,000
mutual funds. This Fund is a proxy for our separate account portfolios.


As you know our long term equity investing track record is exceptional
(see attached). Over the past 24 rolling 5 year periods we have
outperformed the S&P 500 18 times (11 straight years ending 12/31/10)
and had zero negative 5 year periods vs. the S&P 500 which has had 4
negative rolling 5 year periods. Our batting average is better over
rolling 10 year periods, having outperformed the S&P 500 17 out of 19
years (our two years of underperformance coming during the peak of the
internet bubble). Our lowest rolling 10 year return is up 42% vs. the
S&P 500 which is down 13%.


After having done some research on payout structures for marketing
professionals I have learned that the industry standard is 20% of the
first year revenue, 10% of the second year revenue and 5% for each year
following, as long as the account remains. Clearly, this is a departure
from our originally discussed $300,000 annual flat fee.


While I'm not going to be able to sell a flat fee structure here amongst
my partners, I'm willing to meaningfully increase the incentive based
compensation after an account is earned. Meaning, I would advocate for
a 30%, 20% and then 10% into perpetuity structure on the revenue from
all assets raised.


I feel confident that we can have success working together and I would
expect that your contacts will appreciate our fundamental approach to
allocating capital.


Let me know if this structure is agreeable to you both.....I'm hopeful
that we will have an opportunity to work together.


Best,


Zac
