1 NN First Class Return Fund - Passief All Fund in Scope data as of end December 017 The NN First Class Selective Passive Fund gained 3.1% in the fourth quarter of 017 Continued strong economic growth, strong quarter for equities Rising oil prices, strong quarter for commodities Performance The NN First Class Selective Passive Fund increased by 3.1% during the fourth quarter, mostly from the equity investments. Global growth has been accelerating for more than a year now, following nearly two years of steadily declining momentum with Emerging markets also clearly participating in the global synchronised recovery. In this environment of strong growth and corporate earnings, equities posted a positive performance. The MSCI World (Net, in Euro) was up by 3.9%. The contribution from equities (approx. 63% of the weight) to the total return of the fund was positive (+.79%). All equity strategies contributed positively. Corporate investment grade (IG) bonds and Global High Yield posted a positive absolute return this quarter. Spreads tightened significantly as macro data and statements by politicians and policy makers spurred hopes for stronger growth on the back of US tax reforms and a continuation of loose monetary policy, in the absence of concerns on inflation. Emerging Market bonds advanced although the local bond investments in Euro declined due to a depreciating USD. All in all the spread investments had a marginal negative contribution of -1 bps. Oil prices rose over 15% (Brent) leading to commodities posting strong returns, also helped again by the outperformance of the commodity fund. Commodities had a positive contribution of 0.6%. Investments in Global Real estate posted positive results despite a negative relative performance, leading to a 0.07% contribution to the total return. The hedge fund replication strategy contributed positively, adding 0.11% to the total return. Statistics ISIN code NL Inception date februari 016 Ongoing charges 0.4% Outlook Global growth momentum is expected to continue. Inflation will remain a key variable going forward. As long as inflation does not accelerate markedly but drifts up gradually towards the target, it is hard to see the Fed deviating from its gradual rate rise game plan. Overall, we have a constructive view on equity markets. Equities could once again be the best-performing asset class in 018. This is primarily linked to the vibrant macroeconomic environment, which is characterized by robust growth across regions and sectors and supported by consumers, corporates and governments. Next to inflation (expectations), things to monitor are Central Bank s policy as well as geo-political risks. Asset Class allocation Equities, 6% Real Estate, 8% Bonds, 18% Alternatives, 13% Cash, 0%
2 Fund description NN First Class Selective Passive Return Fund is a mixed fund that offers a carefully selected and diversified investment. The fund invests in multiple asset classes including equities, fixed income and alternative investments. The fund mainly invests in NN IP mutual funds and not by NN IP managed funds, including index funds and ETFs. The fund uses a risk return assumption model to periodically determine the allocation to the asset classes. The fund strives to achieve a diversified portfolio that provides an attractive return per unit of risk.

3 NN Liability Matching Fund - M Fund in scope All data as of end December 017 German bond yields declined somewhat due to dovish tone of ECB in the last quarter of 017 Expectation of ongoing economic strength to result is somewhat higher inflation expectations, pushing up government bond yields 5-year EUR swap rates up 7 bps over the quarter Negative return of 0.1% reflection of increase in short term rates; duration 4.7 years Performance Bond yields as a whole did not move significantly in the fourth quarter, with the exception of the US -year yield, which increased quite substantially as a result of rising Fed interest rate expectations. US Treasury yields rose somewhat, on the back of strong economic data and the progress made on US tax reforms. The German Bund yield declined somewhat, despite ongoing macroeconomic strength in the euro region. The main reason for the lower Bund yield was the dovish tone of the ECB. The gap between the US and German 10-year yields widened. Over the quarter 5-year EUR swap rate increased from 0.5% to 0.3%. At the end of the quarter, the AUM of the fund amounted to 645 mln. Outlook Global growth momentum should continue well into next year, with risks tilted to the upside in developed economies, where a positive feedback loop has been established between income and spending and is supported by easy financial conditions. There is also a distinct risk of inflation expectations slipping below the target, especially in Europe but possibly in the US. For government bond markets, we expect the ongoing economic strength to result in somewhat higher inflation expectations, pushing up government bond yields. Fading support from monetary policy should also contribute to moderate upward pressure on yields, as the Fed continues to hike rates and gradually increase the reduction of its balance sheet, while the ECB tapers its bond purchases. We expect the rise in bond yields to be gradual though.

4 Fund description The NN Liability Matching Funds combine a matching portfolio tailored to individual pension goals with the practical advantages of a fund solution. By using three funds we are able to keep costs limited while maintaining high matching standards almost similar to a fully tailored institutional solution. We manage three Liability Matching Funds with different interest rate sensitivity (duration) profiles. The three funds primarily invest in Euro government bonds with a AAA rating (at purchase) and a maturity at issue of 1-3 years*. Within each of the three funds we raise the duration by interest rate swaps and bond futures. NN Liability Matching Fund (M) aims for a duration of around 4 years and LMF (L) and LMF (XL) of around 0 and 40 years respectively. The three funds are passively managed. The duration profiles of funds are constructed in such a way that when optimally combined they can closely match client specific duration profiles based on typical cashflow schemes. * When a bond rating is downgraded or the maturity drops below 1 year we do not need to sell.
