KEY RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUND Equity risk Warrant risk Currency risk Liquidity risk Credit/default risk Interest rate risk Country risk Generally, equity risk may arise in the following forms, i.e., equity risks related to external factors and equity risks related to company-specific factors. All of these related equity risks can adversely affect the prices of equities, which would negatively impact the performance of the Fund. The price, performance and liquidity of warrants are typically linked to the underlying stock. However, the price and performance of such warrants will generally fluctuate more than the underlying stock because of the greater volatility of the warrants market. As such, the Fund s investment in warrants will be facing high volatility as well. This risk is associated with investments denominated in currencies different from the base currency of the Fund. When foreign currencies move unfavourably against the Ringgit Malaysia, these investments may face currency loss in addition to any capital gains or losses, which will affect the NAV of the Fund, and consequently the NAV per Unit of the Fund. Liquidity risk refers to the ease of liquidating an investment depending on the investment s volume traded in the market. This refers to the creditworthiness of the issuers of fixed income securities and/or money market instruments and its expected ability to make timely payment of interest and/or principal. This risk refers to the effect of interest rate changes on the market value of a portfolio of fixed income securities. In the event of rising interest rates, prices of fixed income securities will generally decrease and vice versa. The value of the assets of the Fund may also be affected by the economic and political climate, restriction on currency repatriation or other developments in the law or regulations of the countries in the Asia Pacific region excluding Japan in which the Fund may invest. Further, when investing in foreign markets, there are countries which may require prior approvals before investments can take place. Page 3 of 6 Date: 8 September 2014

Circumstances preventing the distribution of income include, among others, unavailability of sufficient realised returns to enable income distribution as distribution of income may only be made from realised gains or realised income.
