Dear fellow Multi-Asset Fund member:
We are today sending you the accompanying proxy statement asking you to approve a new advisory agreement for TIFF Multi-Asset Fund (“MAF”) with its investment adviser, TIFF Advisory Services, Inc. (“TAS”).  If approved by our members, the new advisory agreement would increase the advisory fee that MAF pays to TAS. The current fee schedule has been in place since 1995.
TAS takes its obligation to provide cost efficient advisory services to MAF and its members very seriously and takes the obligation to pursue investment excellence equally seriously.  TAS management has known for years, and has advised the TIFF Investment Program (“TIP”) board over the years, that TAS was losing money on the existing advisory fee schedule for MAF.  As MAF has grown (the fund now represents about 40% of TAS’s assets under management), it has become increasingly clear that a fee increase is necessary in order to continue to staff MAF appropriately, and to cover the costs associated with an increasingly complex and administratively burdensome regulatory environment.  TAS has no equity owners, so this proposed fee increase is not designed to make the adviser profitable.  Rather, it is intended to allow the organization to continue to operate on the “break even plus a little bit” basis that management has historically pursued.  The “plus a little bit” is designed to enable TAS to maintain balance sheet reserves in amounts considered reasonable by the TAS board and management team.
TIP's board members, all of whom are independent, have reviewed the proposed new advisory agreement and have unanimously recommended that it be presented to you for consideration.  The directors have concluded that the proposed fee schedule is fair and reasonable and the new advisory agreement is in your best interests, but the final decision is yours.  The accompanying proxy statement includes a detailed description of the new agreement and the rationale behind it.
Please read the enclosed materials carefully and please vote.  A proxy card has been provided to your organization’s key contact.  Remember, your vote is extremely important, no matter how large or small your investment in MAF.
If you have any questions before you vote, please call us at 610-684-8200.  All of us at TIFF want to help you understand the proposed new advisory agreement and answer any questions you may have.  Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Richard J. Flannery
President and Chief Executive Officer

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
[Number of Shares]
[NAV per share]

At the Meeting, four Directors will be elected to constitute the entire TIP board, each to serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, death or removal. The nominees are Suzanne Brenner, Sheryl Johns, William McCalpin and Jane Mendillo. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote in favor of the nominees.I.  PROPOSAL:  APPROVAL OF AMENDED AND RESTATED ADVISORY AGREEMENT BETWEEN TIFF INVESTMENT PROGRAM, INC., ON BEHALF OF TIFF MULTI-ASSET FUND, AND TIFF ADVISORY SERVICES, INC.

EachBackground.  Multi-Asset Fund operates on a multi-manager basis, which means that its assets are divided into multiple accounts, each managed by a different money management firm.  Those money management firms are supervised by TAS.  TAS currently serves as the Fund’s investment adviser pursuant to an advisory agreement, dated March 31, 1995, as amended to date (the “Current Advisory Agreement”).  Under the Current Advisory Agreement, TAS manages the investment program of the nominees has consented to serveFund and performs such duties as a Director of TIP. Ms. Brenner and Ms. Johns are currently Directors of TIP. Ms. Johns has served as a Director since April 1996 and Ms. Brenner has served as a Director since July 2003. Mr. McCalpin was a founding Director of TIP and served on the Board until 1998. Neither Mr. McCalpin nor Ms. Mendillo is currently on the TIP Board. Each nominee was recommendedboard and TAS agree from time to time are appropriate to support and enhance the investment program of the Fund.  The Current Advisory Agreement provides that TAS will seek to achieve the Fund’s investment and performance objectives by identifying and recommending to the TIP Boardboard independent money managers for the Fund; managing and allocating cash among asset classes, money managers, and other investment funds selected by TIP’s Nominating CommitteeTAS, as applicable; monitoring the money managers’ and the BoardFund’s performance; and employing certain risk management and other techniques.  There are presently ten independent money managers managing the Fund’s assets, one of which has engaged a sub-adviser.  The independent money managers have entered into contracts with TIP, on behalf of the Fund, which contracts have been approved such nominations. Prior to making its recommendation toby the Board, the Nominating Committee reviewed, both at an in-person meeting and through individual due diligence and informal discussions and consideration thereof, information regarding Mr. McCalpin and Ms. Mendillo to determine their qualifications to be recommended as nominees. Ms. Johns recommended Mr. McCalpin to the Nominating Committee and members of TAS’s management recommended Ms. Mendillo to the Nominating Committee. TIP’s members have previously elected Ms. JohnsTIP board but have not elected Ms. Brenner, Mr. McCalpin or Ms. Mendillo.been approved by the Fund’s members in accordance with an exemptive order obtained by the TIP and TAS in 1995.  The Board knows of no reason why any of the nominees would be unable to serve as Directors, but in the event of such unavailability, the proxies received will be voted for such substitute nominees as the Nominating Committee may recommendCurrent Advisory Agreement and the Board may approve.TAS’s duties are described more fully below.

At a meeting held on March 21, 2011, TAS proposed to the TIP board that the board approve, and recommend to Multi-Asset Fund members that they approve, an increase in the advisory fee paid by Multi-Asset Fund to TAS.  In addition to Multi-Asset Fund, TAS serves as investment adviser to other registered and unregistered funds offered to non-profit organizations. (Certain persons and entities affiliated with TAS or TIP may also invest in the TIFF funds.)  As a result of its focus on the non-profit sector, TAS generally seeks to operate its own business on a break even basis with a modest operating reserve.  TAS is organized as a Delaware non-stock corporation and has no equity owners.  Therefore, TAS has no need to and does not seek to accumulate profits.  The operating reserve aspect of TAS’s budget planning is designed to allow TAS to maintain a reasonable balance sheet cushion against revenue disruptions resulting from market breaks or other unforeseen events and a reasonable margin of error in annual budgeting.  For a number of years, TAS management has been aware and has reported to the TIP board that the fees earned from the TIP funds, including Multi-Asset Fund, were not sufficient to allow TAS to break even (let alone meet the operating reserve objective).  Why then, one might ask, has TAS management now requested a Multi-Asset Fund fee increase?  Four primary reasons are discussed below:

2



First, the mix of TAS’s assets under management has shifted significantly over the years, with Multi-Asset Fund now representing approximately 41% of TAS’s assets under management, versus 17% just six years ago.  Although TAS is compensated based on a percentage of the Fund’s assets, the Fund has grown to such a size that the fee rate on additional incremental assets is just nine basis points (0.09%).  TAS management believes it is inadvisable to continue indefinitely an arrangement whereby a fund representing a significant portion of its assets under management does not generate sufficient revenues to cover its costs.  Second, TAS management believes that additional investment personnel should be added to the team that manages and supports Multi-Asset Fund, especially as the capital markets have become increasingly complex.  While TAS management believes that current Fund staffing levels are adequate, it also believes that the Fund would benefit over time if those resources were supplemented.  TAS needs additional revenues to do so.  Third, the proposed new fee schedule would still, in TAS management’s opinion, offer excellent value for money to Multi-Asset Fund’s members.  A summary of certain industry data considered by the TIP board is included below.  Fourth, the legal and regulatory environment in which Multi-Asset Fund and TAS operate has become increasingly complex, especially when compared to unregistered funds, and that complexity is expected to increase as the full extent of the rules to be promulgated under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act becomes known.

After carefully evaluating the Proposal, as described in further detail below, and considering Multi-Asset Fund members’ interests, the TIP board approved, and is recommending that the Fund’s members approve, an amended and restated advisory agreement (the “New Advisory Agreement”) between TIP, on behalf of Multi-Asset Fund, and TAS.

Proposed Fee Increase.  The New Advisory Agreement includes a revised fee schedule and certain other changes.  A comparison of the current fee schedule, as set forth in the Current Advisory Agreement, with the proposed fee schedule, as set forth in the New Advisory Agreement, is included immediately below, followed by a more detailed comparison of the Current Advisory Agreement and the New Advisory Agreement.

Over$3,000,000,0000.18%

TAS earned advisory fees of $4,687,352 from the Fund for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.  Had the proposed fee schedule been in effect during 2010, TAS would have earned advisory fees of $7,569,971, representing an increase of just over eight (8) basis points or 61.5%.  TAS also provides certain administrative services to the Fund pursuant to a Services Agreement that was entered into between TIP, on behalf of the Fund, and TAS on July 1, 2009, and TAS’s Chief Compliance Officer also serves as Chief Compliance Officer to TIP.  For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, TAS received fees from the Fund under the Services Agreement and reimbursement from the Fund for certain costs related to the Chief Compliance Officer in the aggregate amount of $843,093.  The following table provides information concerning the Nominees for election by members, Directors whose re-election is being sought,Services Agreement and the executive officersreimbursement arrangements with respect to the Chief Compliance Officer are expected to continue after the New Advisory Agreement is approved.

*Description of the Current Advisory Agreement.  Ms. JohnsUnder the Current Advisory Agreement, TAS manages the investment program of the Fund.  TAS is responsible for setting the asset allocation parameters for the Fund and for money manager selection and supervision.  TAS’s duties include: identifying and, subject to review and approval of the TIP board, selecting money managers to invest the Fund’s assets; negotiating money manager agreements; periodically reviewing each money manager’s performance, and making recommendations to the TIP board with respect to the continuation, modification, or termination of the agreement with each money manager; and allocating and reallocating assets among money managers.  TAS also selects other investment funds (referred to as acquired funds) for the Fund, which may include hedge funds, exchange-traded funds, and other types of investment funds, and manages the Fund’s cash, certain investments in US Treasury obligations, and certain investments in futures contracts and other derivative instruments.

With respect to that portion of the Fund’s assets managed directly by TAS, the Current Advisory Agreement authorizes TAS to select brokers and place trades on behalf of the Fund in conformity with TIP’s policy respecting brokerage set forth in its Statement of Additional Information.  Such policy states that in executing portfolio transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the principal objective is to seek best execution (the best overall terms available to the Fund under the circumstances).  In evaluating the terms available for executing particular transactions and selecting broker-dealers, TAS may consider those factors it deems relevant, including brokerage and research services (as defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) provided to the Fund or TAS.  TAS may cause the Fund to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission which is in excess of the commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting the transaction if TAS determines in good faith that such commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, TAS generally disfavors so-called soft dollar arrangements (defined as the receipt by TAS from a broker-dealer of research or other products or services produced by third parties in exchange for the direction by TAS of client brokerage transactions to such broker-dealer and the payment by TAS for any service, whether or not research-related, through the use of soft dollars).  Accordingly, TAS does not engage in soft dollar practices for its own account or for the benefit of any of its affiliates (including funds) in portfolio transactions that it executes on behalf of its clients, including the Fund.  Neither the Current Advisory Agreement nor the separate agreements entered into between each money manager and TIP, on behalf of the Fund, prohibits the money managers from engaging in soft dollar practices.

5


The fee schedule included in the Current Advisory Agreement is set forth above.  In addition, the Current Advisory Agreement provides that TAS will pay all of its own expenses arising from the performance of its obligations under the agreement, but shall not be required to pay any other expenses of TIP.  The Current Advisory Agreement had an initial term of two years and provided that it would continue in effect from year to year after the initial two year term if such continuance is approved in the manner required by the 1940 Act and provided the agreement is not otherwise terminated.  TAS may terminate the Current Advisory Agreement at any time, without payment of penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice to TIP, and TIP may terminate the Current Advisory Agreement at any time, without payment of penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice to TAS by vote of either the TIP board or a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities.  The Current Advisory Agreement will terminate automatically in the event of its “assignment,” as defined in the 1940 Act.

The Current Advisory Agreement provides that, subject to Section 36 of the 1940 Act, TAS shall not be liable to TIP for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission in the management of the Fund and the performance of its duties under the agreement except for losses arising out of TAS’s bad faith, willful misfeasance, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of TAS’s reckless disregard of its duties or obligations under the agreement.  The Current Advisory Agreement provides that TIP will indemnify TAS for certain claims, losses, damages, or expenses arising out of the performance of the agreement except for those resulting from TAS’s bad faith, willful misfeasance, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the agreement.
The TIP board initially approved the Current Advisory Agreement at a meeting held on September 13, 1994, and last approved continuance of the Current Advisory Agreement at a meeting held on June 15-16, 2010, as part of its annual contract approval process.  The Current Advisory Agreement was last approved by shareholders of the Fund by written action of the sole shareholder on March 30, 1995.  The purpose of submission of the Current Advisory Agreement to the sole shareholder was to seek initial shareholder approval of the Current Advisory Agreement prior to the Fund’s commencement of operations on March 31, 1995.
Description of the New Advisory Agreement.  The New Advisory Agreement is included as Appendix A to this proxy statement.  The following description of the New Advisory Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement as set forth in Appendix A.
The New Advisory Agreement and the Current Advisory Agreement are the same in form and substance in all material respects except as described below.  The fees payable to TAS under the New Advisory Agreement are different from, and higher than, those payable under the Current Advisory Agreement.  The current fee schedule and the proposed fee schedule are set forth above.

As noted above, the Current Advisory Agreement provides that, in addition to certain enumerated duties related to asset allocation, manager selection and monitoring, and cash management, TAS shall perform such other duties that the TIP board and TAS agree are appropriate to support and enhance the investment program of the Fund.  Over time, the TIP board and TAS have agreed that TAS would directly manage certain assets of the Fund from time to time, and in recognition of TAS having assumed such duties, a new paragraph has been added to the agreement to incorporate these additional duties.  In particular, the New Advisory Agreement provides that TAS shall make investments in securities and derivative instruments on behalf of the Fund to enhance returns, mitigate risks, adjust asset allocations, gain or reduce exposure to a particular market, manage cash, or otherwise pursue the performance objectives of the Fund.  The New Advisory Agreement also explicitly authorizes TAS to exercise discretion regarding any voting rights, rights to consent to corporate actions, and any other rights pertaining to securities and instruments held by the Fund, whether such securities or instruments are managed directly by TAS or by a money manager, provided that TAS complies with any instructions from the Fund as to the voting of securities or other instruments, the exercise of such rights, and the handling of proxies.
The Current Advisory Agreement provides that neither TAS nor any of its officers, employees, or affiliates will act as principal or receive any compensation in connection with the purchase or sale of investments by the Fund other than the management fees provided for in the agreement.  The New Advisory Agreement contains this same limitation, but would allow such transactions to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with the restrictions included in, applicable law, regulation, rule, exemptive relief, or relevant guidance from or by an appropriate regulatory body.  In addition, the New Advisory Agreement clarifies that the provision that requires TAS to pay all of its own expenses arising from the performance of its obligations under the agreement does not limit the ability of TAS and the TIP board to agree from time to time to the appropriate allocation of costs and expenses between the parties, including salaries and expenses of officers or employees of TAS who are performing duties for TIP other than those that TAS is required to provide under the agreement.  There are no plans currently under consideration by either TIP or TAS to reallocate any current or future costs and expenses among the parties.
Consideration of the New Advisory Agreement by the TIP Board.  At an in-person meeting held on March 21, 2011, the TIP board approved the New Advisory Agreement.  The board requested and received information from TAS in advance of the meeting, which information the board reviewed separately in executive session with its independent counsel.  The materials provided included information regarding personnel and services, investment strategies, portfolio management, fees and expenses, performance, and TAS’s profitability.  Information about brokerage and commission practices was also supplied, including allocation methodologies, best execution, and soft dollar programs.  Extensive information with respect to compliance, administration, and risk management was supplied, such as information on TAS’s compliance programs, including its code of ethics and business continuity procedures, as well as information concerning any material violations of such programs, chief compliance officer background, disclosure about regulatory examinations or other inquiries, and confirmation that there were no litigation proceedings affecting TAS.
In addition, the board considered (1) a memorandum from the board’s independent counsel setting forth the board’s fiduciary duties and responsibilities under the 1940 Act and the factors the board should consider in its evaluation of the New Advisory Agreement; (2) a memorandum from TAS requesting that the board consider the fee increase and describing TAS’s reasons for the request; (3) responses by TAS to a questionnaire prepared by the board’s independent counsel requesting information necessary for the board to evaluate the New Advisory Agreement; (4) two reports prepared by Keil Fiduciary Strategies (“KFS”), a firm that had been retained by the TIP board to assist it in its evaluation of the proposed fee increase; (5) a profile for TAS detailing the lead portfolio manager for the Fund, the current and proposed fee schedules, and the fees paid to TAS and expected to be paid to TAS under the current and proposed fee schedules, respectively; (6) information provided by TAS comparing the fees charged to Multi-Asset Fund with those charged to comparable clients of TAS; (7) an estimated cost allocation of actual 2010 expenses prepared by TAS, and other information relevant to the board’s evaluation of the reasonability of the proposed fee schedule and its expected impact on TAS’s profitability, including audited financial statements of TAS for the year ended December 31, 2009, a profit and loss summary for the year ended December 31, 2010, and TAS’s unaudited balance sheet as of December 31, 2010.

The board was joined telephonically for a portion of its executive session by Jeff Keil, principal of KFS, who commented on the written reports KFS had provided to the board in advance of the meeting.   In addition, at the request of the board, certain members of TAS management joined a portion of the executive session to enable the board to ask questions and request additional information from TAS, after which TAS management was excused.  In its deliberations with respect to the proposed fee schedule and the New Advisory Agreement, the board was advised by its independent legal counsel and weighed the matters before it in light of the advice provided by such counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts.  After consideration of the proposal, including the information summarized above and below in this proxy statement and all factors deemed relevant, the board concluded that the New Advisory Agreement was reasonable, fair, and in the best interests of the Fund and its members, and that the fees provided in the New Advisory Agreement were fair and reasonable.  Therefore, the board voted to approve the New Advisory Agreement for the Fund, to submit the New Advisory Agreement to the Fund’s members for approval, and to recommend that the Fund’s members vote in favor of the proposal.
The board based its evaluation of the New Advisory Agreement and the proposed fee schedule on the material factors presented to it at the meeting, including (1) the terms of the New Advisory Agreement; (2) the reasonableness of the proposed fee schedule in light of the nature and quality of the services provided and any additional benefits received by TAS in connection with providing services to the Fund; (3) the nature, quality, and extent of the services performed by TAS, as well as the cost to TAS of providing the services; (4) the fees charged by TAS to the Fund and other similar clients; and (5) the overall organization and experience of TAS.  In reaching its conclusion to approve the New Advisory Agreement, the board did not single out any one factor or group of factors as being more important than the other factors, but considered all of these factors together with a view toward past and future long-term considerations.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services.  The board considered a number of factors in evaluating TAS.  It noted that it receives information at regular meetings throughout the year related to the services rendered by TAS, as well as the Fund’s performance, expense, and compliance information.  It also noted that it receives information between regular meetings as the need arises.  The board’s evaluation of the services provided by TAS took into account the board’s knowledge and familiarity gained as board members, including the scope and quality of TAS’s investment management capabilities in selecting money managers, allocating Fund assets across asset classes and managers, managing certain types of assets in-house (e.g., Treasuries, futures contracts, and derivatives), and its compliance responsibilities.  The board noted that, over time, TAS expected to add investment personnel to the team that manages and supports the Fund.  The board also noted the nature and quality of services that TAS provides pursuant to a separate Services Agreement, for which TAS is separately compensated.  The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of services provided under the Current Advisory Agreement and the Services Agreement, noting that the same or a similar level of services was expected to be provided under the New Advisory Agreement.

Investment Performance of the Fund.  The board reviewed the Fund’s investment performance versus its benchmarks, including the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) + 5% per annum, the Multi-Asset Fund Constructed Index (“CI”), based on the normal allocation to each asset class, and the Morgan Stanley Capital International All Country World Index, for the one-year, three-year, five-year, ten-year, and since inception periods ended December 31, 2010.  The Fund’s average annualized total returns (before the deduction of entry and exit fees levied on member purchases and redemptions) exceeded those of the benchmarks for all periods, except the three-year period.  The board also reviewed the Fund’s investment performance versus the average of the funds in the Lipper Inc.’s Global Flexible Portfolio category for the one-year, three-year, five-year, and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2010, noting that the Fund’s returns exceeded those of the Lipper peer group for each of the time periods reviewed.  The board also considered the Fund’s performance relative to certain other multi-asset or asset allocation mutual funds selected by TAS over various time periods.  The Fund’s performance compared favorably to such other funds, although it did not outperform every fund for every time period reviewed.  The board noted that KFS commented favorably on the Fund’s performance.  The board also noted TAS’s implementation of the Fund’s investment strategy across multiple asset classes and money managers.  Overall, the board was satisfied with the Fund’s performance.
Costs and Profitability.  The board considered the profitability of TAS as a result of its relationship with the Fund and the likelihood that it would remain financially viable moving forward.  The board reviewed the advisory fees TAS earned from the Fund for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, which, based on the estimated cost allocations provided by TAS for the same time period, was not sufficient to cover TAS’s costs in providing services to the Fund.  The board also reviewed the advisory fees TAS would have earned from the Fund had the proposed fee schedule been in effect during 2010, including the amount of an increase this represented as a percentage of the current fee schedule and in basis points.  The board considered the fees TAS received from the Fund pursuant to the Services Agreement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, and noted that the Fund reimburses TAS for certain costs related to TIP’s Chief Compliance Officer.  Based on TAS’s estimated cost allocations, the increased revenues, together with the fees earned under the Services Agreement, would have allowed TAS to approximately break even, and as Fund assets grow, will provide the modest cushion that TAS seeks.  The board also noted that TAS bears the cost of the Fund’s distribution arrangements and that the amounts expended for such arrangements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 had been included in the materials provided to the board.  The board was satisfied with TAS’s profitability analysis and concluded that the proposed fee schedule was fair and reasonable.  KFS’s report supported this conclusion.
The board noted that it was separately being asked by TAS to consider a proposed reorganization of two other TIP funds which would result in those other funds being combined with and into Multi-Asset Fund.  A second report prepared by KFS analyzed the profitability of the Fund to TAS on a pro forma basis assuming the implementation of the proposed fee schedule and the consolidation of such other funds into Multi-Asset Fund.  Mr. Keil reviewed his report with the board during the executive session and, at the request of the board, TAS management commented on the report.  There were a number of assumptions that were required to be made by KFS to prepare the analysis and, overall, the results of the analysis did not alter the board’s conclusion that the proposed fee schedule was fair and reasonable.
Fees and Expenses (including Potential Economies of Scale).  The board reviewed TAS’s advisory fee and Multi-Asset Fund’s fees and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010, and on a pro-forma basis considering the effects of the proposed fee schedule.  In its report, KFS compared such fees and expenses to those of a member deemedprojected 2011 Lipper Inc. peer expense group for the Fund.  The KFS report revealed that Multi-Asset Fund’s total expense ratio using the current fee schedule and excluding the expenses associated with acquired funds was the lowest in the projected 2011 expense group, consisting of seven funds.  Using the proposed fee schedule, Multi-Asset Fund’s total expense ratio would have been higher than the expense ratios of two of the funds in the projected expense group and lower than the expense ratios of four funds in the projected expense group.  In each case, Multi-Asset Fund’s expense ratio was below the average expense ratio for the projected expense group.  The KFS report noted that none of the other funds in the projected expense group makes significant use of acquired funds, such as hedge funds, and when considering the effect of the acquired funds’ fees and expenses, Multi-Asset Fund’s total expense ratio appeared to be higher than that of all of the funds in the projected expense group.  The board noted the acquired funds’ contributions to Multi-Asset Fund’s investment performance and also the fact that most of the acquired funds had performance based fee schedules, so the acquired funds’ fees and expenses would tend to be higher when performance of such funds’ was good and lower when performance lagged.

9

The board also considered TAS’s advisory fee and Multi-Asset Fund’s fees and expenses relative to certain other multi-asset or asset allocation funds selected by TAS.  Both TAS and the KFS report noted the limited usefulness of such data due to the differences in investment strategies and techniques pursued by such other funds as well as differences in fund structures.  Multi-Asset Fund’s advisory fees, including TAS’s fees and those of the money managers but not the advisory fees that Multi-Asset Fund bears indirectly as a control personresult of TIFF International Equityits investments in acquired funds, were lower than four of the funds in the group and higher than four of the funds in the group; and Multi-Asset Fund’s total expense ratio was higher than all of the other funds in the group.  It was noted that none of the other funds in the group made extensive use of hedge funds in their acquired funds bucket, as Multi-Asset Fund becausedoes and that, unlike Multi-Asset Fund, many of the other funds in the group made extensive use of affiliated funds in their acquired funds bucket.  Both of these factors would tend to result in Multi-Asset Fund having a higher expense ratio than the other funds.
The KFS report also included a comparison of Multi-Asset Fund’s advisory fees to a group of manager-of-managers funds culled from Lipper Inc.’s database.  Noting the structural differences between Multi-Asset Fund and such member holds 25% or moreother funds, the KFS report indicated that Multi-Asset Fund generally compared favorably to such other funds.
The board also considered the advisory fees paid by another non-mutual fund client of TAS that had a similar investment program to that of Multi-Asset Fund, noting that the proposed fee schedule compared favorably to the fee schedule between TAS and such other client.
TAS’s current fee schedule and the proposed fee schedule include breakpoints that enable Multi-Asset Fund to benefit from economies of scale at the Fund’s current asset levels.  The board noted that the proposed fee schedule has fewer breakpoints and that the breaks occur at higher asset levels than the current fee schedule, but that the Fund’s assets were at a level that the Fund would enjoy the benefits of economies of scale under both fee schedules.  The board questioned TAS management during the executive session about the rationale behind the change in the breakpoints and was satisfied with TAS management’s response.  The board and TAS management undertook to review and consider from time to time whether the Fund continued to benefit from economies of scale should the Fund’s assets continue to grow.  The board concluded that the Fund’s advisory fees and total expenses, including those that reflected the proposed fee schedule, were reasonable in light of the quality and nature of services provided and expected to be provided under the New Advisory Agreement.
Vote Required.  Approval of the New Advisory Agreement will be determined by the affirmative “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.
Ms. Mendillo will be deemed an "interested director" of TIP, as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), because she is also a director of TIFF Advisory Services, Inc.
The officers of TIP are elected annually by the Board.

Director Compensation. All of the Directors currently serve as volunteers who receive no fees or salary but are eligible for expense reimbursement and a matching charitable gift program offered by TIP. Similarly, Ms. Mendillo serves as a volunteer on the TAS board and receives no fees or salary but is eligible for expense reimbursement and a matching charitable gifts program offered by TAS. In connection with the nomination process conducted by the nominating committee and the Board, extensive consideration was given to the role of an independent board chair and the increased demands of that role in recent years given the growth in the Funds’ assets and the ever-changing investment and regulatory environment. Both the nominating committee and the full Board concluded that an independent board chair must undertake a growing list of duties in addition to the duties normally ascribed to a director. Among the duties of an independent board chair are to serve as the primary liaison on behalf of the board with independent counsel to the independent directors, the board, management and staff of the investment advisor, as well as the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”). In addition, the independent board chair is involved in setting the agenda for each board meeting and coordinating matters among all directors both in connection with meetings and during the period between meetings. The independent board chair also takes the lead in recruiting and evaluating the performance of the CCO. In consideration of these and other duties performed by the independent board chair, the nominating committee recommended that the Board consider compensating the independent board chair for his or her service as chair. The Board considered certain industry data and other factors that it deemed relevant and approved a resolution providing for payment of $75,000 per year to the independent board chair for serving as chair, commencing after the election of Directors at the Meeting. Compensation payable to the independent board chair will be a TIP expense and will be allocated to each Fund pro rata based on the relative net assets of each Fund. The Directors, other than the independent board chair, will continue to serve as volunteers and will receive no fees or salary for their service as Directors and will continue to be eligible for expense reimbursement and a matching gifts program. The independent board chair will receive no additional fees or salary for service as a Director.

It is the intent of the Board to select a new independent board chair after the Meeting. It is currently expected that Ms. Johns will cease to serve as independent board chair at the next meeting of the Board following the Meeting and that the newly elected Board will select Mr. McCalpin, if elected, to serve as the independent board chair. Assuming that Mr. McCalpin is elected to the Board and selected by the newly elected Board to serve as independent board chair, he would be entitled to the compensation described in the preceding paragraph. There can be no assurance that Mr. McCalpin will be selected to serve as independent board chair, and if he is not and another independent Director is selected as independent board chair, that other Director would be entitled to such compensation. Members are not being asked to approve the payment of compensation to the independent board chair.

General Information Regarding the Board of Directors. TIP’s Board, which is currently composed of one interested and three independent Directors, held four regularly scheduled meetings in 2007 and one special telephonic meeting. Each Director, other than Mr. Hoffman (an incumbent Director who is not standing for re-election), attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of all meetings of the Board and all committees on which he or she served. It is expected that the Directors will meet at least four times a year at regularly scheduled meetings. As TIP is not required to convene annual member meetings, there is no policy regarding Director attendance at such meetings.

Audit Committee. The Board has an audit committee that met twice during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Each of TIP’s independent directors serves on the audit committee of TIP. Pursuant to its charter, the purpose of the audit committee is to (a) oversee TIP’s accounting and financial reporting policies and practices, its internal controls, and, as appropriate, the internal controls of certain service providers; (b) oversee the quality and objectivity of TIP’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof; and (c) act as a liaison between TIP’s independent auditor and the full board.
6


Nominating Committee. The nominating committee met once during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Each of TIP’s independent directors also serves on the nominating committee of TIP. The nominating committee’s mission is to promote the effective participation of qualified individuals on the Board and committees of the Board. The nominating committee’s functions are to (a) receive, review, and maintain files of individuals qualified to be recommended as nominees for election as directors, which shall include a review of the individual’s status as an “interested person” of TIP under the 1940 Act; (b) make nominations to the Board of individuals to serve as independent directors; and (c) except as otherwise provided in any procedures adopted by the Board, present recommendations to the Board regarding directors to be selected for membership on the various committees of the Board. With respect to nominees to serve as independent directors, the committee will review their qualifications for board membership and their independence from TAS, TIP’s money managers, and other principal service providers. The committee will also consider the effect of any relationships beyond those delineated in the 1940 Act that might impair independence (e.g., business, financial or family relationships with TAS, TIP’s money managers, or service providers). In addition, the nominating committee will periodically review the composition of the Board to determine whether it might be appropriate to add individuals with different backgrounds or skill sets from those already on the Board. Members should send nominations in writing to TIFF Investment Program, Inc., Attn: Nominating Committee, Four Tower Bridge, 200 Barr Harbor Drive, Suite 100, West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania 19428. Such nominations shall include appropriate information on the background and qualifications of the nominee, as well as the nominee’s contact information and a written consent from the nominee to serve if the nomination is accepted and the nominee elected. Nominations will be accepted on an on-going basis and kept on file for consideration when there is a vacancy on the Board. The nominating committee will assess member nominees in the same manner it reviews its own nominations.

Share Ownership of Directors of the Trust. The TIP funds are designed primarily for foundations, endowments, other 501(c)(3) organizations, and certain other non-profit organizations. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2007, the Directors and officers of TIP as a group owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of any Fund. The following table sets forth information regarding the aggregate dollar range of equity securities in all Funds beneficially owned by each Director as of December 31, 2007:

Member Communications to the Directors. Members may send communications to the Directors by visiting The Investment Fund for Foundations website at www.tiff.org, or by addressing such correspondence directly to TIFF Investment Program, Inc., Four Tower Bridge, 200 Barr Harbor Drive, Suite 100, West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania 19428. When writing to the Board, members should identify themselves, the fact that the communication is directed to the Board, the Fund they are writing about, and any relevant information regarding their Fund holdings. Except as provided below, the Secretary shall either (i) provide a copy of each member communication to the Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting or (ii) if the Secretary determines that the communication requires more immediate attention, forward the communication to the Board promptly after receipt. The Secretary will also provide a copy of each member communication to the Board and the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer. The Secretary may, in good faith, determine that a member communication should not be provided to the Board because it does not reasonably relate to the Funds or the Funds’ operations, management, activities, policies, service providers, Board, officers, members or other matters relating to an investment in the Funds or is otherwise ministerial in nature (such as a request for Fund literature, share data or financial information).

Vote Required. The election of Directors, as set forth in Proposal 1, will be determined by the affirmative vote of a plurality (the greatest number of affirmative votes) of all votesFund” cast at the Meeting, either in person or by proxy. If Proposal 1proxy at a Meeting at which a quorum is not approved by the members, the Board will consider what action, if any, would be in the best interestspresent.  A “vote of a majority of the members.outstanding voting securities of the Fund” means the vote of (i) 67 percent or more of the votes attributable to the outstanding voting securities of the Fund present at the meeting, if the holders of more than 50 percent of the votes attributable to the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii) more than 50 percent of the votes attributable to the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, whichever is less.  Because all of the Fund’s shares are held directly by its members and not through any brokers, dealers or other financial intermediaries, the Fund does not expect to receive any “broker non-votes.”

Advisory Agreement

ADVISORY AGREEMENT, dated ________, 2011 (“Agreement”), between TIFF Investment Program, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“TIP”) for the account of its Multi-Asset Fund, (the “Fund”) and TIFF Advisory Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Adviser”).

In consideration of the mutual agreements herein made, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Attorney-in-Fact.  TIP hereby appoints the Adviser to act as investment adviser to the Fund for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement.  The Adviser accepts such appointment and agrees to render the services herein described, for the compensation herein provided.

2.Duties of the Adviser.  Under the supervision and subject to the control of TIP’s Board of Directors, the Adviser shall manage the investment program of the Fund and, in particular, shall perform the following duties in addition to any others that the Board of Directors and the Adviser agree are appropriate to support and enhance the investment program of the Fund:

Money Manager Selection and Supervision

(a)Establish, in consultation with the Board of Directors of TIP, criteria for identification and selection of money managers for the Fund;

(b)Identify, screen and interview money managers for the Fund, analyze the capabilities of such managers, and, subject to review and approval of the Board of Directors, select one or more money managers to invest the Fund’s assets in light of the capabilities of available managers and expectations as to the way in which the investment programs and styles of each will contribute, in tandem, to the overall performance of the Fund;

(c)Negotiate discretionary management agreements between TIP and money managers on suitable terms with particular attention to performance benchmarks and fees, it being understood that (except with respect to uninvested cash and other management by the Adviser, as provided below) the agreements will vest with the money managers, and not with the Adviser, the discretion to select particular investments within the investment program, performance benchmark or benchmarks, investment policies, and restrictions set forth in such agreement or otherwise agreed from time to time, and advise TIP’s Board of Directors, which has final authority for the approval or disapproval of such agreements, as to the terms thereof and other pertinent information with respect thereto;

(d)Review periodically the performance of each money manager against the manager’s performance benchmark and the manager’s overall contribution to the Fund’s performance, and make such recommendations to TIP’s Board of Directors as the Adviser deems appropriate with respect to the continuation, modification, or termination of the agreement with the manager;

Cash Management

(a)Arrange for the management of cash invested in the Fund pending its allocation to managers and, when permitted under terms of manager agreements, for the management of cash allocated to managers pending investment in accordance with the manager’s investment program; such arrangements may involve retention of one or more cash managers under agreements negotiated by the Adviser and approved by TIP’s Board of Directors and may also involve investment by the Adviser in money market instruments and other securities in accordance with the Fund’s investment policies and restrictions applicable to the management of cash or the acquisition (with appropriate assistance from registered commodity trading advisers or other registered persons) of futures contracts or derivative instruments providing a synthetic exposure to the investment market consistent with TIP’s investment program.
