A brief description of the socially responsible investment option for retirement plans:
Denison, through TIAA CREF, offers employees the option of investing in a Socially Responsible fund. Details of this fund are below:
Investment Objective:A favorable long-term rate of return that reflects the investment performance of the financial markets while giving special consideration to certain social criteria.
The Account primarily invests in companies that are screened by KLD Research and Analytics, Inc.

• Strong stewards of the environment;
• Devoted to serving local communities and society generally;
• Committed to higher labor standards for their own employees and those in the supply chain;
