1 ORBIS GLOBAL EQUITY FUND Fact Sheet at 31 May 2014 ORBIS The Fund is designed to remain fully invested in global equities. It aims to earn higher returns than world stockmarkets, without greater risk of loss, and has a benchmark of the FTSE World Index, including income ( World Index ). The Fund s currency exposure is managed relative to that of the World Index. Price $ Size $15.0 billion Minimum US$50,000 (Existing investors) Load None Dealing Weekly (Thursday) Fee 1.5% p.a. ± up to 1.0%, based on 3 year rolling performance vs. benchmark Independent Rating Commentary Last May we wrote that your Fund s exposure to the Technology sector had declined as a result of bottom-up decisions to allocate capital to more attractive ideas elsewhere. Technology s weight in Global is now even lower at 14%, down from 20% twelve months ago. The main driver has been the sale of the Fund s position in the US semiconductor manufacturer, Micron Technology, in the wake of its strong outperformance. Micron outpaced the benchmark over the last year amid rising memory prices and the prospect of meaningful structural change in the industry. The Fund trimmed its holding throughout the year as the price approached our assessment of intrinsic value, and sold out entirely in March, after which Micron s shares have continued to perform well. While it is not unusual for us to sell too early and miss some additional upside, we believe our clients are better served if we continue to deploy their capital in the most attractively valued stocks we can find.

3 ORBIS SICAV JAPAN EQUITY FUND Yen & Euro Classes Fact Sheet at 31 May 2014 ORBIS The Fund is designed to remain fully invested in Japanese equities. It aims to earn higher returns than the Japanese stockmarket, without greater risk of loss, and has a benchmark of the TOPIX Index, including income measured in Japanese yen or hedged into euro. Orbis manages the following classes in this Fund: Orbis SICAV Japan Equity (Yen) is predominantly exposed to the Japanese yen. Orbis SICAV Japan Equity (Euro) hedges its currency exposure into euro. Independent Rating Commentary In 2014, two of our favourite shares have moved in opposite directions. We discussed INPEX in June last year, and since then it has outperformed the Japanese market by over 20%. Our thesis remains the same: we continue to believe the Ichthys natural gas project will greatly increase INPEX s longterm earnings potential. Progress for Ichthys remains on budget and on schedule, and following a long period of underperformance for INPEX, it seems the market is beginning to appreciate the project s value. We retain a positive long-term view on the stock. On the other end of the spectrum is SEGA SAMMY HOLDINGS, which we discussed last September. Disappointed by slow progress on casino legislation and weak results due to a delayed product launch, the market has punished the stock. Taking a longer-term view, we believe these issues will prove temporary and that the potential for SEGA SAMMY to participate in a Tokyo casino is more valuable than the market appreciates. Of course, while we do consider shortterm price movements for the opportunities they might expose, our focus is always on the longer-term performance we can deliver for your Fund.

5 ORBIS SICAV ASIA EX-JAPAN EQUITY FUND Fact Sheet at 31 May 2014 ORBIS Commentary In January we noted that, in recent years, your Fund s experience with country selection in China and Korea has been negative. While large exposures to those markets detracted from performance in 2013, our stock selections within those markets more than made up for that headwind. So far this year, India has been a different story with a similar result. Despite having found selected opportunities including Housing Development and Infrastructure Limited (HDIL) and IDFC, India s leader in infrastructure project financing, the Fund s overall exposure to Indian shares has been limited, and with that market outperforming the benchmark, this has detracted from relative performance. That said, both HDIL and IDFC are among your Fund s top year-to-date contributors, and overall, our stock selections within India more than offset the effect of having limited exposure to a strong market. As always, we remain confident in our investment philosophy and will not make macro calls on overall markets. Rather, we believe we have a greater chance of generating superior returns if we focus on selecting individual stocks. Geographical Deployment The Fund seeks higher returns than the average of the Asia ex-japan equity markets, without greater risk of loss and has a benchmark of the MSCI All Country Asia ex Japan (Net) (US$) Index ( MSCI Asia ex-japan Index ). Currency exposure is managed separately to equity exposure. The Fund may be long in benchmark or non-benchmark currencies without holding underlying assets in those currencies.

7 ORBIS SICAV GLOBAL BALANCED FUND Fact Sheet at 31 May 2014 ORBIS The Fund seeks to balance appreciation of capital, income generation and risk of loss with a diversified global portfolio of equity, fixed income and commodity-linked instruments. It aims to earn higher long-term returns than its benchmark, which is comprised of 60% MSCI World Index with net dividends reinvested and 40% JP Morgan Global Government Bond Index ( 60/40 Index ), each in US dollars. Price $12.83 (Investor Shares) Size $450 million Minimum $50,000 (Existing investors) Load None Dealing Weekly (Thursday) Fee 1.5% p.a. ± up to 1.0%, based on 3 year rolling performance vs. benchmark Commentary To pursue its mandate, Global Balanced has several tools at its disposal. An important tool that tends not to get much discussion time is the Fund s currency risk management. Currency movements can have a pronounced effect on a global investor s returns, so our primary aim is to reduce the risk of a permanent loss in purchasing power. As with other assets, we believe it is possible to analyse the fundamentals of a currency and determine whether it is over- or undervalued. We then apply this research with a focus on reducing exposure to those that appear to be poor stores of value. For example, this year we have reduced your Fund s exposure to the euro from 19% to 7%, while increasing the US dollar exposure from 44% to 61%. In our view, current exchange rates do not adequately reflect the euro s vulnerability to monetary easing, resurgent Japanese exports, and continued unrest in Ukraine. While we do not seek to capture short-term currency movements, we believe it is important to manage the Fund s exposure to preserve your long-term purchasing power.

9 ORBIS OPTIMAL SA FUND Fact Sheet at 31 May 2014 ORBIS The Fund seeks capital appreciation in US dollars or euro on a low risk global portfolio. The Fund invests principally in a focused portfolio of selected global equities believed to offer superior relative value and employs stockmarket hedging to reduce risk of loss. US$ Class Euro Class Price $14.85!14.20 Size (millions) $2,201!267 Minimum US$50,000 (Existing investors) Load None Dealing Weekly (Thursday) Fee 1% pa plus 20% of outperformance vs US$/Euro Bank Deposits Commentary Investors looking to diversify away from stockmarkets currently have very few attractive options. Cash returns are negligible and, as we have noted previously, bonds look unlikely to deliver satisfactory long-term returns after a multi-decade bull market. Still, appetite for bonds has remained robust this year. As a result, the Average US$ Bond Fund is up 3% since the start of the year, and 10-year US Treasury yields stand at 2.5% per annum, their lowest since last October. Although we can t predict when the bond rally will come to an end indeed markets have a nasty way of extracting the most pain from the greatest number of participants we continue to believe that Optimal s ability to capture our core skill of stock selection, while hedging most stockmarket exposure, creates an ideal diversification tool. We are confident that Optimal s time-tested strategy and historical lack of correlation with major asset classes make it an alternative to cash and bonds, particularly in the current environment.

A prospectus is available on request from Allan Gray Unit Trust Management Limited. Certain capitalised terms are defined in the Prospectus. Fund Information The country and currency classification for equity securities follows that of third party benchmark providers for comparability purposes. Based on a number of factors including the location of the underlying business, Orbis may consider a security s classification to be different and manage the Fund s exposures accordingly.
