16 INCOME ESTIMATE FOR 2017/2018 INCOME ESTIMATE for 2017/18 year: 4.75% * Monthly income 3.90% (0.370 CPU) Tax benefit of franking credits 0.75% Potential reserve at year end 0.10% *Income estimate is estimated after fees and including franking credits. AMP Capital may review and change the investment managers and underlying funds including the level of distributions at any time, consistent with the terms of the Product Disclosure Statement. The information above is a hypothetical estimate only and is not a guarantee. The actual figures may be higher or lower than estimated. What you need to consider before you invest AMP Capital estimates the income and franking credits at the start of the financial year based on assumptions of the prevailing portfolio at that time and security level income forecasts. AMP Capital does not revisit the income estimate through the year unless there is a material change in conditions in particular, conditions which would lead to a widespread change in dividend payments. The estimates are converted to a monthly income figure in cents per unit (CPU) and into a yield based on 30 June prices. It is the expected yield that adjusts with changes in Unit Price daily. The latest unit price and income can be obtained by calling The value of your investment will go up and down over time. The income generated in the Fund may be higher or lower than anticipated due to, amongst other things, changes in the level of dividends, franking credits and interest coupons. There is a risk that the actual income may be lower than the pre-announced income. The Fund may change the level of their distributions giving at least three months' notice or if the responsible entity determines that it is in the best interests of investors to do so. Like all investment strategies, an investment in the Fund involves risks details of which are located at the end of the presentation. QUARTERLY FUNDS REVIEW Q

30 KEY DIFFERENCES MYNORTH RETIREMENT FUND V MULTI-ASSET FUND Growth Assets Diversifying Assets Defensive Assets Alternative Strategies AMP Capital Multi-Asset Fund characteristics: Diversified portfolio of growth and defensive assets Aims to deliver returns above inflation Strong focus on risk management 3 stage investment process asset allocation, implementation and tail hedging Uses dynamic asset allocation which allows for a flexible approach to changes in the asset class mix to meet changes in the market environment. Aims to have lower volatility than traditional balanced funds MyNorth Retirement Fund characteristics are similar with the following differences: The Funds have a greater focus on income and manage risk specifically for retirees in drawdown The Fund is managed for investors in or close to retirement, utilising those investors zero marginal tax rate by fully valuing franking credits The Fund manages risks that are more prevalent when delivering cash flows in retirement, such as interest rate risk and inflation risk. Dynamic Asset Allocation and portfolio positioning will be slightly more defensive QUARTERLY FUNDS REVIEW Q

31 BEING OPPORTUNISTIC AUSTRALIAN VS US INFLATION Background > Inflation protection is also one of the attributes the Fund targets to align to post-retirement investment needs. Within fixed income, the Fund will have a bias toward holding inflation linked bonds over nominal bonds (given reasonable pricing) US Breakeven 10 Year Target Close Australia Breakeven 10 Year Open > While Australian inflation is the key risk to hedge, an opportunity arose in mid 2016 in which US inflation protection was priced very cheaply. > The Fund switched half of its breakeven inflation exposure from Australia to the US in June Once the US inflation normalised, we closed the position A selective approach > Opportunistically switching inflation exposure from Australia to the US allowed the Fund to maintain inflation protection while also increasing returns. 1.2 SOURCE: AMP CAPITAL, BLOOMBERG QUARTERLY FUNDS REVIEW Q

32 AMP CAPITAL FUTURE CASH FLOW RANGE

33 HELPING PROVIDE GREATER CERTAINTY ON CASH FLOW THE FUNDS DELIVER KNOWN MONTHLY CASH FLOWS, ADJUSTED ANNUALLY FOR INFLATION, UNTIL ALL INCOME AND CAPITAL IS RETURNED TO INVESTORS. THERE ARE 3 FUNDS IN THE RANGE: FUTURE 6 CASH FLOW FUND SERIES 1 Monthly cash flow of 6 cents per unit pa adjusted annually for inflation* Managed with the aim of lasting 15 to 30 years from the inception of the Fund. We estimate the Fund's lifetime to last 21 years and 3 months** from the inception of the Fund FUTURE 9 CASH FLOW FUND SERIES 1 Monthly cash flows of 9 cents per unit pa adjusted annually for inflation* Managed with the aim of lasting 10 to 16 years from the inception of the Fund. We estimate the Fund's lifetime to be 12 years and 11 months** from the inception of the Fund FUTURE 12 CASH FLOW FUND SERIES 1 Monthly cash flows of 12 cents per unit pa adjusted annually for inflation* Managed with the aim of lasting 7.5 to 11 years from the inception of the Fund. We estimate the Fund's lifetime to last 9 years and 4 months** from the inception of the Fund * Until all income and capital is returned ** Modelling and assumptions Our modelling and assumptions used to determine the indicative range and estimate of the life of the Funds are based on a financial model built by AMP Capital that generates 1,000 random simulated scenarios for the investment returns and associated capital drawdown of the Funds. The result of each simulated scenario is an estimate of the life of the Funds for that scenario. Key assumptions factored into the modelling include a return of 5.3% per annum after fees, volatility of 6% per annum on investments held by the Funds, interest rates being determined by the current real yield curve for Australian government bonds and CPI of 2.5% per annum. The results of these 1,000 simulated scenarios allows us to understand the distribution of possible outcomes, which provides an indication of the likelihood of a particular estimate of the life of the Funds occurring. See 'Modelling and assumptions' on page 5 of the incorporated information document. You should be aware that the information related to the indicative range and estimate of the life of the Funds is predictive and does not represent a guarantee by AMP or affiliated parties. Known and unknown risks and other uncertainties may arise which impact the assumptions used in the modelling. This may result in the predictive estimates being materially different from actual outcomes. QUARTERLY FUNDS REVIEW Q

34 Cash Flows per $100k Invested ILLUSTRATIVE CASH FLOW PER $100K INVESTED FUTURE CASH FLOW 9 FUND 20,000 The Future Cash Flow 9 Fund pays monthly distributions at a rate of 9 cents per annum (0.75 cents per month). It is indexed against inflation in July each year until all income and capital is returned to investors. 18,000 16,000 14,000 Fixed monthly cash flow distributions - inflation indexed Expected franking credits received INDICATIVE RANGE OF THE LIFE OF THE FUND YEARS Tracking the Fund s goal Upon launch of the Fund in August 2016, we estimated the life of the Fund to be 12 years and 11 months (as described in the PDS). As the portfolio performed well since inception, pleasingly we have extended our estimate of the life of the Fund to be 13 years and 4 months from inception (that is, to November 2029). This estimate will be updated quarterly to give retirees enhanced capability to plan their retirement, and is subject to the assumptions outlined in the PDS. From July, monthly distributions will increase by 1.9% in-line with the current rate of inflation. 12,000 10,000 8,000 6,000 4,000 2, YEAR Estimate of the life of the Fund at inception: 12 years, 11 months Updated Estimate of the Life of the Fund: 13 Years, 4 months > For illustrative purposes, we have provided the above chart showing the monthly cash flows and return of capital profile for the Fund, based on $100,000 invested at the inception of the Fund. > The increasing blue bars over time illustrate the monthly cash flows starting at $6,000 per annum and increasing with inflation. The monthly cash flows are shown as 12 segments within each blue bar. > The orange bars show actual cash flows received per $100k as at the date of this report. > The green bars are the estimate of franking credits that will be received by the Fund (based on the historical franking yield of the Fund s underlying Australian equity strategies). > The amount and frequency of the Fund s cash flows are known, however the Fund has an end date which is dependent on the Fund s performance.

However, there is still value around, with markets such as Europe and Japan remaining relatively more attractive. CYCLE Economic indicators point to solid global growth. LIQUIDITY Liquidity conditions remain favourable for equities, with global interest rates low and quantitative easing programs in place in Japan and Europe. The prospect of more rate hikes by the Fed than markets expect is a risk. SENTIMENT Investor sentiment towards equities remains bullish which is a negative in the DAA process.

58 DEFINITIONS & KEY TERMS FUTURE CASH FLOW RANGE KEY TERMS IN THIS PRESENTATION Adjusted annually for inflation Annual cents per unit distribution rate End date Estimate of the life of the fund Indicative range of the life of the fund Monthly cash flows MEANING The movement in the most recent March Trimmed Mean Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the prior March CPI. This can result in a positive (ie due to an inflationary upward movement) or negative (ie due to a deflationary downward movement) change to the monthly cash flows. Each Fund has a cents per unit per annum, adjusted annually for inflation, distribution. Investors will be updated online in July each financial year of the annual cents per unit distribution rate for that financial year. The date on which the Fund is terminated, at the discretion of the Responsible Entity. This date is variable and dependent on the performance of the Fund. At the time of termination, a final distribution and any residual capital remaining in the Fund will be paid to investors. The estimate of the life of the Fund is the best estimate of the period of time the Fund will be able to pay monthly cash flows from the inception of the Fund. It is a guide only, based on our modelling and assumptions, as at the date of the PDS and will change throughout the life of the Fund. See 'Modelling and assumptions' on page 3 of the PDS and for further details, page 11 of this presentation. Investors will be updated regularly throughout the life of the Fund on changes to the estimate of the life of the Fund online at This is based on our modelling and assumptions, as at the date of the PDS, which provides an estimate of the shortest and longest period of time that the Fund will be able to pay monthly cash flows from the inception of the Fund. See 'Modelling and assumptions' on page 3 of the PDS and for further details, page 11 of this presentation. The distributions of the Fund, which may comprise both income and the return of capital invested. Calculated as the number of units held by the investor multiplied by the annual cents per unit distribution rate divided by 12, after fees and costs. QUARTERLY FUNDS REVIEW Q

59 MODELLING AND ASSUMPTIONS Our modelling and assumptions used to determine the indicative range and estimate of the life of the funds are based on a financial model built by AMP capital that generates 1,000 random simulated scenarios for the investment returns and associated capital drawdown of the funds. The result of each simulated scenario is an estimate of the life of the funds for that scenario. Key assumptions factored into the modelling include a return of 5.3% per annum after fees, volatility of 6% per annum on investments held by the funds, interest rates being determined by the current real yield curve for australian government bonds and CPI of 2.5% per annum. The results of these 1,000 simulated scenarios allows us to understand the distribution of possible outcomes, which provides an indication of the likelihood of a particular estimate of the life of the funds occurring. See modelling and assumptions on page 5 of the product disclosure statement. You should be aware that the information related to the indicative range and estimate of the life of the funds is predictive and does not represent a guarantee by amp or affiliated parties. Known and unknown risks and other uncertainties may arise which impact the assumptions used in the modelling. This may result in the predictive estimates being materially different from actual outcomes. QUARTERLY FUNDS REVIEW Q
