Instead, FTCIP's holdings of 13F Securities will be included on FRI's Combination Report, FTCIP will be listed as an Other Included Manager on that Combination Report, and FTCIP will file, to the extent required, a 13F Notice. Additionally, Fiduciary Trust International LLC, which is listed as an Other Manager Reporting for FRI, was formerly known as Athena Capital Advisors LLC.
