3 3 INTRODUCTION The present document defnes the rules for the calculaton and management of the ECPI Emu Ethcal Equty Index. The Index Rules and Index Consttuents are avalable on ECPI s webste, and/or can be requested at ndces@ecpndces.com. The Index values are avalable on Bloomberg wth the followng dentfers: BLOOMBERG TICKER ECAPMP Index ECAPMR Index ECAPMND Index INDEX NAME ECPI Emu Ethcal Prce Index ECPI Emu Ethcal Total Return Index ECPI Emu Ethcal Net Return Index ECPI SUSTAINABLE INDICES The ECPI Emu Ethcal Index s desgned to be a member of the broadest famly of ECPI Sustanable Benchmark and Tradable Indces. The objectve of ECPI s that of provdng the user wth tradable ndces that n ther constructon and management take nto account, n addton to tradtonal fnancal crtera, also non-fnancal dmensons. All of ECPI Indces are characterzed by () ether a rgorous excluson of companes that operate n certan sectors n coherence wth the ethcal sensblty of the nvestor or by () a postve selecton of companes that demonstrate a sold ESG profle. ECPI Indces may be used as the bass for varous nvestment vehcles: they allow for an effcent mplementaton of socally responsble or sustanable mandates as well as ndex-trackng portfolos and exchange traded funds. Socally Responsble and Sustanablty crtera used to select the ndces consttuents, offer a condut for nvestors to jontly express ther nterest n sustanablty and, thus, to collectvely move the relevant ssues up the corporate agenda. ECPI Indces are managed by ECPI, whch s responsble for: The ndex constructon, management and dstrbuton. The management of the ndces selecton crtera and of the revew of all ndces. The correct applcaton of the Index Rules n mantanng the ndces. The Socally Responsble selecton crtera. ECPI may change exstng socally responsble crtera, remove exstng crtera or add new crtera. ECPI wll endeavor to gve notce before mplementaton of changes to selecton crtera.
4 4 GUIDING PRINCIPLES The ECPI Socally Responsble Equty Indces famly s bult and mantaned accordng to the followng prncples: Market Representaton The ndces represent the reference markets and reflect the opportuntes avalable to the nvestors. The man crtera used to ensure market representaton are market captalzaton and sector composton. Investble and Replcable The ndces should be capable of beng replcated by users, ths objectve s acheved by: free float adjustng of consttuent captalzaton and selecton of securtes wth reasonable sze and lqudty. Dscplned Approach ECPI Indces are constructed and managed usng a set of prncples, rules and gudelnes. Ths approach s followed to mantan the attrbutes of a benchmark, such as stablty of the ndex, proper dversfcaton across ndustres and securtes and accurate respect of the socally responsble crtera. Transparency The ndces are bult and mantaned usng clear and transparent rules, avalable on publc sources; moreover the ndces are publshed daly on the most mportant fnancal nfo provders worldwde (Bloomberg, Thomson Reuters). Independence and Objectvty The ndces are based on ndependent and objectve content decsons. ECPI beleves n an open dalogue wth ts clents, consderng wth objectvty ther suggestons to enhance the ndces provson. Analyzng all the feedback receved by ts clents, ECPI takes ndependently the fnal decson n order to preserve the qualty of the ndces. Contnuty and Indces Turnover ECPI Indces are managed to ensurng the contnuty of the ndces. Contnuty refers to the consstent applcaton of the ndex methodology. The ndces are also managed wth the am of keepng the level of ndex turnover relatvely low, whle at the same tme reflectng the evoluton of the reference market. Sustanablty Every securty whch composes the ndces has to satsfy defned socally responsble nvestment crtera.
5 5 INDEX CONSTRUCTION CONSTITUENT UNIVERSE OF ECPI EMU ETHICAL The ndex constructon process starts at the country level, consderng all the lsted companes n the reference market. In general, companes and ther respectve securtes are classfed as belongng to the country n whch they are ncorporated. The Investment Unverse s composed by all companes that belong to the reference markets, pass the fnancal elgblty crtera defned n ths secton (lqudty and free float adjustment). Companes wth an ESG ratng less than E- and/or nvolved n controversal actvtes (see pages 11-12) are not ncluded n the Investment Unverse (mnmum ESG Ratng). All the companes that are n the Investment Unverse are Elgble for ncluson n the Indces: the Indces are always a sub-group of the Investment Unverse. Where there are multple lnes of equty captal n a company, all are ncluded and prced separately n the nvestment unverse. Investment trust, mutual funds, Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and Equty Dervatves are not ncluded n the Equty Unverse. Convertble and preference shares and loan stocks are excluded untl converted. The country markets ncluded n the ndces are: COUNTRY TABLE: ECPI EMU ETHICAL EQUITY INDEX Austra Belgum Cyprus Estona Fnland France Germany Greece Ireland Italy Latva Lthuana Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Portugal Span Slovaka Slovena FREE FLOAT ADJUSTMENT OF TOTAL MARKET CAPITALIZATION After dentfyng the unverse of securtes, ECPI sorts securtes accordng to ther adjusted market captalzaton. The adjusted market captalzaton s used to calculate securty s weghts wthn the ndex. The adjusted market captalzaton s defned as the total market captalzaton multpled by a free float factor. The free float factor represents the percentage of shares that do not belong to strategc shareholdngs and so are deemed to be avalable for purchase n the publc equty markets by nvestors. Strategc shareholdngs nclude: long-term nvestments n an ndex consttuent ether by another consttuents (.e. cross-holdngs) or nonconsttuent company or entty sgnfcant long-term holdngs by founders, ther famles and/or drectors employee share schemes (f restrcted) government holdngs
6 6 foregn ownershp lmts Strategc shareholdngs do not nclude: portfolo nvestments nomnee holdngs (ncludng those supportng ADRs & GDRs), unless they represent strategc shareholdngs holdngs by nvestment companes ECPI estmate of free float s based on publc avalable nformaton obtaned from multple nformaton sources. Consultaton may be conducted wth offcal company contacts. Estmated free float s rounded to the closest 5%. If the free float s less than 15%, the company s not consdered for ncluson n the ndces, although t remans n the Investment Unverse. Foregn ownershp lmts, f any, wll be appled after calculatng strategc shareholdngs. If the foregn ownershp lmt s more restrctve than the free float related to strategc shareholdngs, the precse foregn ownershp lmt s appled. If the foregn ownershp lmt s less restrctve or equal to the free float related to strategc shareholdngs, the latter s appled.
7 7 CALCULATION METHOD CALCULATION FREQUENCY The Index s calculated and publshed daly, on a next day bass. The only days the ndex s not calculated are on days when all exchanges where ndex s consttuents are lsted are offcally closed. PRICES The ECPI Equty Indces end-of-day calculatons use closng trade prces. GMT WM Reuters Currency cross rates are used for the currency converson. INDEX ALGORITHM The actual trade prce of securtes s converted nto Euro and the ndces are then calculated usng the algorthm descrbed below. The Prce ndex s calculated as follows: I ( P ) t I ( P ) * t1 n 1 n 1 P P, t, t1 ff ff N N Where I(P) t = prce ndex value on day t Pt = closng share prce on day t Nt = number of shares n ssue on day t ff = free float factor n = number of ndex consttuents The gross (net) total return ndex s calculated as follows: I ( TR ) t I ( TR ) * t1 1 P, t ff n 1 N P, t1 n 1 ff D N, t ff N Where I(TR) t = total return ndex value on day t P,t = offcal closng prce n Euro for stock on day t D t = gross (net) dvdend n Euro on the ex-dvdend date t N = number of shares for stock = number of ndex consttuents ff = free float factor P,t N = Index market captalzaton on day t
8 8 D,t N = ndex dvdend amount on day t The net total return ndex uses net dvdends nstead of gross dvdends (see tax rates n Appendx A).
9 9 REVIEW Every three months ECPI revews the ndces consttuents n order to ensure the market representaton. The rebalancng of the ndces consders the fnancal and extra-fnancal evoluton of the reference market. The evoluton may be due to economc and fnancal developments such as a change n the composton or structure of an ndustry (e.g. changes n the market captalzaton and representaton of a company) - as well as to changes n the sustanablty profle of the consttuents. The ethcal, envronmental, socal and governance performance of companes elgble for ncluson n the Indces s montored by ECPI; each consttuent has to pass the ESG and Controversal Actvty Screenng. The rules for nsertng and deletng securtes at the perodc revew are desgned to provde stablty n the selecton of consttuents of the ndces, whle ensurng the ndces contnue to be representatve of the reference market. The followng rules are appled to the updated nvestment unverse. The number of consttuents s kept constant at 150 consttuents. A company s elgble for ncluson at the quarterly revew f t rses above the ncluson, when the elgble companes are ranked by adjusted market value. The ncluson threshold s: 100th poston A company s elgble for ncluson at the quarterly revew f t rses above the ncluson, when the elgble companes are ranked by adjusted market value. The ncluson threshold s: 250th poston The expected number of consttuents change at the revew s the mnmum between the number of securtes that rses above the ncluson threshold and the number of securtes that falls under the excluson threshold. In mantanng the ndces, emphass s placed on ther market representaton and contnuty, mnmzng the turnover n the ndces. In general ECP mantan the turnover under 6%. The tmetable of the quarterly revew s reported below. Below the reference calendar for the quarterly revew. If the revew day falls on a holday, the subsequent workng day wll be consdered.

10 10 ADJUSTMENTS FOR CORPORATE ACTIONS Corporate actons are treated by the ndex agent, S&P Dow Jones Indces, accordng to S&P Dow Jones Indces Corporate Actons Polces & Practces Methodology. The followng s an extract of S&P Dow Jones Indces Index Mathematcs Methodology for Cap Weghted Indces: There are a large range of dfferent corporate actons rangng from routne share ssuances or buy backs to unusual events lke spn-offs or mergers. These are lsted on the table below wth notes about the necessary changes and whether the dvsor s adjusted. CORPORATE ACTION INDEX ADJUSTMENT DIVISOR ADJUSTMENT Company added/deleted Net change n market value determnes the dvsor adjustment. Yes Change n shares outstandng Stock splt Spn-off Spn-off Spn-off Change n IWF Specal Dvdend Rghts offerng Any combnaton of secondary ssuance, share repurchase or buy back share counts revsed to reflect change. Share count revsed to reflect new count. Dvsor adjustment s not requred snce the share count and prce changes are offsettng. If the spun-off company s not beng added to the ndex, the dvsor adjustment reflects the declne n ndex market value (.e., the value of the spun-off unt). Spun-off company added to the ndex, no company removed from the ndex. Spun-off company added to the ndex, another company removed to keep number of names fxed. Dvsor adjustment reflects deleton. Increasng (decreasng) the IWF ncreases (decreases) the total market value of the ndex. The dvsor change reflects the change n market value caused by the change to an IWF. When a company pays a specal dvdend the share prce s assumed to drop by the amount of the dvdend; the dvsor adjustment reflects ths drop n ndex market value. Each shareholder receves the rght to buy a proportonal number of addtonal shares at a set (often dscounted) prce. The calculaton assumes that the offerng s fully subscrbed. Dvsor adjustment reflects ncrease n market cap measured as the shares ssued multpled by the prce pad. Yes No Yes No Yes Yes Yes Yes Wth corporate actons where cash or other corporate assets are dstrbuted to shareholders, the prce of the stock wll gap down on the ex-dvdend day (the frst day when a new shareholder s not elgble to receve the dstrbuton.) The effect of the dvsor adjustment s to prevent ths prce drop from causng a correspondng drop n the ndex.

11 PUBLIC INFORMATIONSOURCES 11 RETROSPECTIVE CHANGES TO PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED INDEX VALUES The ECPI Index Methodology does not allow retrospectve changes to prevously publshed ndex values ( Backfllng ). Dvsor correctons, ndex nput changes due to late dvdend announcements and other smlar adjustments are not consdered backfllng. ESG AND CONTROVERSIAL ACTIVITY SCREENING METHODOLOGY AND RATING ECPI research process follows an objectve, rgorous and dscplned propretary methodology that translates qualtatve data nto quanttatve ndcators, assgnng to each ssuer an Envronmental, Socal and Governance (ESG) score and a ratng. ECPI uses a rule-based non-dscretonary approach consderng approxmately 100 key performance ndcators to evaluate an ssuer s envronmental, socal and governance sustanablty. ECPI evaluates companes n the followng areas 7 Envronmental Strategy and Polcy 13 Envronmental Management 3/4 Products - sector specfc 6/11 Producton Process - sector specfc 9 Employees and Human Captal 12 Communty Relatons 11 Markets 19 Corporate Governance & Shareholders ENVIRONMENTAL Score max 60 Ratng (9 notches) F=>EEE SOCIAL & GOVERNANCE Score max 60 Ratng (9 notches) F=>EEE ESG RATING Score max 120 Ratng (9 notches) F => EEE The tradtonal pllars of ESG scrutny are the followng: E S G Envronmental strategy, polcy and management system. Industry-specfc envronmental mpact of producton processes and products. Socal strategy and polcy: assessng the qualty of the company s relatonshps wth ts stakeholders (customers, compettors, employees, management, publc agences and regulators, shareholders, credtors, local government and nternatonal nsttutons), market postonng and compettor analyss. Governance structure: assessng both market and nternal management ssues, dentfyng the structure of the company s governng bodes, ts man operatng characterstcs, as well as the poltcal and regulatory/legal specfcs of the frm s country of afflaton. The analyss produces a score and a ratng. A company s overall ratng s the sum of the scores from each ndcator; the hgher the fnal score, the hgher the fnal ratng. ECPI also montors the nvolvement of companes n the followng controversal actvtes: Alcohol: Producton and/or promoton of alcoholc products and ts use Gamblng: Involvement n horse bettng, bettng centres, casnos, gamblng machne manufacturng Weapons and Volence: Involvement n the spread of volence, such as manufacture of frearms for the consumer market, manufacture of landmnes, major weapons contractors contrbutng to the spread of global mltarsm Tobacco: Manufacturng, processng, tradng or dstrbutng wholesale tobacco, and tobacco products
