Guaranty Agreement with LSV Employee Group III In October 2012, LSV Employee Group III purchased a portion of the partnership interest of three existing LSV employees for $77,700, of which $69,930 was financed through two syndicated term loan facilities contained in a credit agreement with The PrivateBank and Trust Company. The Company provided an unsecured guaranty for $45,000 of the obligations of LSV Employee Group III to the lenders through a guaranty agreement. The lenders have the right to seek payment from the Company in the event of a default by LSV Employee Group III. LSV agreed to provide an unsecured guaranty for $24,930 of the obligations of LSV Employee Group III to the lenders through a separate guaranty agreement. The Company’s direct interest in LSV was unchanged as a result of this transaction. The Company has determined that LSV Employee Group III is a VIE; however, the Company is not considered the primary beneficiary because it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of LSV Employee Group III either directly or through any financial responsibility from the guaranty. In September 2014, LSV Employee Group III made the final principal payment related to the term loan guaranteed by LSV. As of October 16, 2015, the remaining unpaid principal balance of the term loan guaranteed by the Company was $23,781. LSV Employee Group III has met all financial obligations to date regarding the scheduled repayment of the term loans since origination. The Company, in its capacity as guarantor, currently has no obligation of payment relating to the term loan of LSV Employee Group III and, furthermore, fully expects that LSV Employee Group III will meet all of their future obligations regarding the term loan.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company wrote off the remaining carrying value of its investment in the firm.
