The first financial year end was the last Paris Stock Exchange trading day in June Tax system The Fund is not subject to corporation tax. In accordance with the principle of transparency, the tax authorities consider the unitholder to be the direct owner of a share of the financial instruments and cash held in the Fund. The tax treatment of any capital gain or income from holding Fund units depends on tax provisions specific to the investor s own particular circumstances and/or on the tax provisions in the country where the investor resides. Investors should seek professional financial advice. The French tax system considers a switch from one unit class to another unit class to be a sale subject to capital gains tax. 3.2 Special provisions ISIN codes of the unit classes: I class: FR N class: FR M class: FR G class: FR O class: FR Classification "International Equities" UCITS Investment objective The Fund's investment objective is to generate a performance that is regularly in line with that of its benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International All Country Asia Pacific ex- Japan index (MSCI AC Asia Pacific ex- Japan), closing price, net dividends reinvested, expressed in euros. Benchmark index The benchmark is the MSCI AC Asia Pacific ex-japan index, closing price, net dividends reinvested, expressed in euros (but not hedged against exchange rate risk of the different underlying Asian currencies). The index is composed of approximately 680 securities from 12 different countries. The principal stock markets represented are: Australia (25%) China + Hong-Kong (28%), South Korea (15%), Taiwan (11%), India (6%), and to a lesser extent, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, New Zealand and the Philippines. These percentages are indicative and subject to change based on revisions of the index and market trends. This index is only a point of reference, although the Fund manager seeks to follow it to some extent. The behavioural profiles of the portfolio and index are generally similar. Investment strategy Description of the strategies used: Portfolio composition strategy: The sources of added value lie in: - The comparative analysis of the portfolio and its benchmark index, with rigorous risk management GROUPAMA ASIE 4/15 Prospectus/published on 04/08/2015

5 - The optimisation of the timing of purchases and sales - The input of the analysis of the securities held in the portfolio, particularly those securities that are likely to be subject to special events such as takeover bids/public exchange offers. Management style: The Fund adopts a management style with a low tracking error (TE), whereby the TE is limited to 1%. Assets, excluding embedded derivatives: Equity markets: In terms of portfolio management, equities from the twelve countries included in the benchmark index represent at least 60% of the Fund s net assets. However, the manager may also invest in equity markets other than those of these twelve countries on an ancillary basis. The minimum equity risk exposure is 60% of the Fund's net asset value. Up to a maximum of 30% of the Fund s net assets may be invested in bonds and other negotiable debt securities to compensate for reverse repurchase s; the majority of bonds used will be government bonds and, to a lesser degree, investment-grade private corporate bonds. Holding of shares or units of other foreign UCITS, AIFs or investment funds: Up to 10% of the Fund s net assets may be invested in units or shares of a UCITS The following UCITS may be used: International Equities, Money Market and Short-term Money Market, French or European UCITS. "Money Market and Short-term Money Market UCITS will be used to optimise the fund's cash management. Trackers (listed index entities) may be used. Derivative instruments: The Fund may invest in derivatives for up to a maximum of 100% of net assets, which affects both the Fund s performance and investment risk. However, they may be used from time to time to increase exposure to or hedge against certain risks, thereby increasing the strategy s flexibility. Therefore, derivative products are used marginally to maximise performance. Types of markets targeted: The Fund may trade in all types of derivatives markets: Regulated markets Organised markets Over-the-counter markets Risks in which the manager intends to trade: The manager will trade in: Equity risk (specific to a stock or globally to a stock market index) Exchange rate risk Types of trades: The manager will buy or sell derivatives for the purpose of: Hedging Exposure Types of derivatives used: The manager may trade in particular in: GROUPAMA ASIE 5/15 Prospectus/published on 04/08/2015

6 Options: agreement between two parties by which one gives the other the right to purchase from him/her (i.e. a buy or call option) or sell to him/her (i.e. a sell or put option) a financial asset subject to the payment or receipt of a sum of money (the option price): - Purchases of calls and puts. - Sales of calls on equities held, principally to protect/capitalise positions. - Sales of puts covered by cash or cash-equivalents corresponding to the securities that the manager wishes to acquire. Swaps (a financial flow exchange agreement between two entities over a given period). They may be used marginally for the same purpose as options. Purchases or sales of index futures to temporarily manage the overall exposure of the portfolio. Currency futures (sales or purchases). Derivatives s are subject to a maximum commitment of 100% of the Fund s net asset value. Counterparty selection criteria Counterparties on over-the-counter instruments (over-the-counter derivatives and effective management techniques) are selected through a specific procedure in force applied by the financial manager; the main selection procedures relate to their creditworthiness, the fact that they are subject to permanent monitoring by a public authority, their financial solidity, the suitability of their organisational structure and the compliance of their pricing system with market practices. Deposits: Up to 10% of the Fund's net assets may be in the form of deposits at a credit establishment based in a Member State of the European Union or European Economic Area, with a term of less than 12 months, as a store of cash to be used as needed. Cash borrowings: On an exceptional basis, with the aim of investing in anticipation of a market rise or on a temporary basis as part of managing large redemptions, the Manager may borrow cash up to the value of 10% of the net assets of the Fund from the custodian, CACEIS Bank France. Temporary purchases and sales of securities: The Fund does not anticipate using leveraging as a structural approach. The Fund will only occasionally undertake repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and securities lending. However, the Fund may lend up to 40% of its net assets to optimise existing lines. Similarly, up to 30% of the Fund s net assets may consist of reverse repurchase agreements to back uninvested cash. (see embedded non-derivative assets). From time to time, equity exposure may slightly exceed 100% and create a negative cash position. This type of unusual situation would be short-lived, and direct equity exposure will not exceed 110% of net assets. Additional information is available in the fees and charges section. Information relating to the Fund s financial guarantees: In the context of temporary purchases and sales of securities and derivatives s traded over-thecounter, the Fund may receive securities or cash as collateral. Cash collateral is reinvested in accordance with the applicable rules. All of these assets must be issued by high-quality, liquid, diversified issuers with low volatility that are not an entity of the counterparty or its group. The discounts applied to collateral received take into account the quality of credit, the price volatility of the securities and the result of stress tests carried out in accordance with the regulatory provisions. The level of financial guarantees and the discount policy are determined in accordance with the regulations in force. Risk profile GROUPAMA ASIE 6/15 Prospectus/published on 04/08/2015

7 Capital risk: Investors will be exposed to the risk of losing their invested capital, since the Fund does not offer a capital guarantee. Equity risk: The principal risk to which investors are exposed is equity risk, as more than 60% of the Fund is invested in equities. The Fund's net asset value is highly likely to experience fluctuations comparable to those seen in its preferred investment universe, the Asia stock markets. The value of an investment and the income from it may go up as well as down and investors may not recover the capital initially invested in the company. The value of the portfolio may be impacted by external factors such as political and economic developments or political changes in certain governments. Exchange rate risk: Exchange rate risk exists because at least 60% of the Fund's net assets will be invested in securities or UCITS denominated in various Asian currencies. Use of derivative markets: Using derivatives may increase or decrease the volatility of the Fund by respectively increasing or decreasing its exposure. Credit risk: This refers to the possibility that an issuer s credit rating may fall or an issuer s risk of default, causing it to default on payment Counterparty risk: Counterparty risk consists of assessing the risks for an entity in terms of the commitments linking it to a counterparty. This therefore refers to the default risk of a counterparty, causing it to default on payment. In accordance with regulations, this risk may not exceed 10% of net assets by counterparty. Guarantee or protection:. Eligible subscribers and typical investor profile The Fund is open to all subscribers. I and N classes: open to all subscribers. M class: open to all subscribers, particularly intended for institutional investors from Europe and Canada G class: open to all subscribers, particularly intended for Groupama SA's companies, subsidiaries and regional banks.

FCP GROUPAMA ASIE is aimed at investors seeking to enhance their savings by investing in Asian equity markets. Investors should have an aggressive approach to equity investment. Proportion suitable for investment in the Fund: all equity investments may be subject to significant fluctuations. The amount that might reasonably be invested in FCP GROUPAMA ASIE should be determined with reference to the investor's personal situation. To determine this, investors should take into consideration their personal wealth, their needs at the present time and over the next five years, and the level of risk they are willing to accept. Investors are also advised to diversify their investments sufficiently to avoid being exposed exclusively to the risks of this Fund. Investors accepting only moderate risk will have less than 30% of their total portfolio exposed to equities, investors seeking a compromise between risk and performance will have approximately 50% of their total portfolio exposed to equities, and investors seeking maximum performance combined with risk will have up to 70% or more of their total portfolio exposed to equities. GROUPAMA ASIE 7/15 Prospectus/published on 04/08/2015

8 Investment diversification: this should be achieved by investing in different classes of assets (money market instruments, bonds and equities), and in different sectors and geographical regions so as to spread the risks more effectively and optimise portfolio management by taking market trends into account.
