1 NN First Class Return Fund - Passief All Fund in Scope data as of end June 017 The NN First Class Selective Passive Return Fund lost 1.8% in the second quarter of 017 Global equities continued to move upward in the quarter in local currencies but not in Euro Euro appreciated strongly versus the USD Performance Global equities continued to move upward in the second quarter of the year. In local currencies that is, because measured in euros most regions faced losses. The US dollar was weak in the past quarter versus other major currencies such as the euro. The euro gained 6.6% against the dollar in the past three months. So while in US dollar terms the MSCI World rose 4.%, it lost.3% measured in euros. Measured in local currencies, emerging markets outperformed developed markets, as was the case in the first quarter. The contribution from equities to the total return of the fund was negative (-1.38%) mainly due to the USD depreciation that impacted equity returns in Euro Europe has shown significant progress with improving labour markets and business sentiment, although inflation remains low. Corporate investment grade (IG) bonds posted a positive absolute return, just like global high yield. EMD continued its strong performance of the beginning of the year in the second quarter. Economic data remain good, portfolio flows steady and the positive trends in EM spreads, local interest rates and exchange rates are intact. The contribution from fixed income to the total return was negative (-0.07%) which was mainly the result from our investment in EMD local Bonds that decreased in EUR terms by almost 3%.The high yield and credit investments added positively to the total return. Statistics ISIN code NL Inception date februari 016 Ongoing charges 0.4% Outlook Global growth is looking more balanced, with a strong feedback loop between income and spending in reaction to the improvement in global profits and confidence. Alignment between final demand and global industrial production momentum, as well as the balance between consumer spending and capital industrial production is also getting better. Momentum in emerging markets (EM) is improving, as evidenced by confidence and credit flow data. We expect nominal GDP growth (growth including inflation) in developed markets (DM) to increase from.4% in 016 to 3.9% this year. For equities, the current environment is supportive: improving macro data, accelerating earnings growth and easy monetary policy, all of which create room for higher equity multiples. Political and policy risks are in no short supply. These include doubts about the effectiveness of the US administration, monetary policy normalization, European integration, alleged Russian intervention in US and European election campaigns, the conflict in the Middle East, and the unpredictability of the North Korean regime. Still, we should keep in mind these types of risk are around most of the time. Asset Class allocation Equities, 6% Real Estate, 7% Bonds, 17% Alternatives, 13% Cash, 1%

3 NN Liability Matching Fund - M Fund in scope All data as of end June 017 Yields on Euro government bonds relatively stable on balance in the second quarter of 017 Expectation of monetary policy normalization going forward 5-year EUR swap rates up 10 bps over the quarter Negative return of 0.3% reflection of increase in rates; duration 4.8 years Performance Over the quarter the fund realized a net return of -0.3%. This decrease reflects the increase in Euro swap rates. Over the quarter 5-year EUR swap rate increased from 0.18% to 0.8%. The overall duration of the fund was 4.8 years per end of June. At the end of the quarter, the AUM of the fund amounted to 495 mln. Outlook Global growth is looking more balanced, with a strong feedback loop between income and spending in reaction to the improvement in global profits and confidence. We expect nominal GDP growth (growth including inflation) in developed markets (DM) to increase from.4% in 016 to 3.9% this year. Imbalances no longer form an insurmountable impediment to higher growth equilibrium, and private sector confidence is on an upward trend. Constructive fiscal and monetary policy responses could further support growth. Political and policy risks are in no short supply. These include doubts about the effectiveness of the US administration, monetary policy normalization, European integration, alleged Russian intervention in US and European election campaigns, the conflict in the Middle East, and the unpredictability of the North Korean regime. Still, we should keep in mind these types of risk are around most of the time.

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.
