Aon has advised us through several major acquisitions and offers innovative solutions to address the risks our multi-national mining business presents. Aon has provided valued guidance in presenting and resolving several challenging claims through the years. In support of an improved claim handling experience, Aon streamlined our global placement by reducing the number of participants on the program and limiting the claims agreement parties to our long standing quota share underwriters. Carrie Robinson, Freeport-McMoRan Inc Aon | A focus on mining 3 4 Aon | A focus on mining Expand your opportunities and minimise risk Across all geographies, mining companies are enjoying a resurgence in commodity prices on the back of tightening supply and strengthening demand. This environment has led to some marginal mines coming out of care and maintenance and the revival of a series of mining infrastructure plans and feasibility studies for greenfield developments together with some substantial upgrades to existing operations. The complexity and demands put on mining operations therefore means that their insurance and risk management programs need to be exceptionally effective to reduce the cost of risk and help satisfy a variety of regulatory requirements. Aon’s Mining Team supports organisations in Australia and around the world, helping them optimise risk-taking and risk management activities. We have significant project development, exploration and operational site expertise, which we combine with a desire to understand the complexities of our clients’ activities.

It is quickly moving towards and investment grade rating by Standard & Poor’s. According to Mosaic’s conference call after releasing third quarter fiscal year 2008 earnings, two of the company’s main goals in the near term are to issue dividends and buyback shares. It was rated the #1 performing Fortune 500 company for 2007-2008. Our proposed purchase of 100 shares will equate to 1.00% of the SMIF’s equity holdings and 0.75% of the total SMIF Portfolio. Currently the SMIF only holds two equities in the materials sector including an exchange traded fund.

These philanthropists are leading the charge to secure our continent’s wetland and waterfowl habitat to make the vision of full skies a reality. Please contact Kathy McCollum at 901-758-3710 or [email protected] for information about being included in next year’s annual report. 58 2015 Annual Report photo credit: Gary Kramer A LETTER FROM DUCKS UNLIMITED SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT OF DEVELOPMENT Mike Woodward Rescue Our Wetlands! What simple and direct words to describe the campaign we are undertaking. Those three words are a call to arms for the next three years for you and me and the others we need to lead in the work of conservation. Let me share with you something I hope speaks to you about why you and I need to do more of the great work we do. To me, philanthropy is about giving back to the birds and wetlands and honoring the people and places that are special in my life. I am who I am because of education, experience and the special people who have shown me how to live a purposeful life. This deepening knowledge makes me appreciate where I came from and offers me a chance to preserve the special places where life has taken me. Few things excite me more than returning to an old haunt and seeing the birds return there as they have my entire life.
