The performance shown is that of the Hamlin Equity Only Composite. As such, it is not representative of any particular account and not every client’s account will be identical.

The DVY is the Dow Jones Select Dividend ETF which tracks the Dow Jones US Select Dividend Index, an index of relatively high dividend paying U.S. equities.

Equity Only Composite consists of fully discretionary accounts that are comprised of any amount of common stocks and cash. There is no minimum account size or time period to be included in the composite. Returns include the effect of foreign currency exchange rates. The exchange rate source for the composite is IDSI/IDC – FT Interactive Data Corporation. The S&P 500 index is provided solely as a widely recognized index. The index is in no way indicative of the strategy employed in this composite. It is the position of Hamlin Capital Management, LLC (“Hamlin”) that a meaningful benchmark is not available for this strategy due to the frequent and customized changes in allocation in individual accounts. Benchmark returns are not covered by the report of independent verifiers.

PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Investing entails the risk of loss of principal. The U.S. Dollar is the currency used to express performance. Returns are presented net of custodial and management fees and includes the reinvestment of all income. Net of fee performance was calculated using actual management fees. Results are based on fully discretionary accounts under management, including those accounts no longer with the firm. Composite performance is presented net of foreign withholding taxes, where applicable, for the period prior to October 1, 2016, and gross of foreign dividend withholding taxes thereafter. Composite performance accrues dividends starting October 1, 2016.

The management fee schedule is as follows: 1.00% on all assets. Actual investment advisory fees incurred by clients may vary.
