SUB-FUND 7 - BPER INTERNATIONAL SICAV - EQUITY EMERGING MARKETS Profile of the typical investor Historical performance Investment Policy The Sub-Fund is suitable for investors wanting to invest in a broadly diversified equity portfolio, including investments in Russia. The performance of the Sub-Fund is outlined in the key investor information document relating to the Sub-Fund. The aim of this Sub-Fund is to invest primarily in stocks and other equity related securities of companies domiciled in Emerging Markets or which are chiefly active in these markets. Emerging Markets are all markets/countries included in the International Finance Corporation Composite Index and/or the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, as well as other countries/markets with a similar economical development or in which new equity markets have been recently established. This Sub-Fund may invest to a lesser extent of its net assets in closed-end undertakings for collective investments (UCI), in addition to its investments in open-ended UCIs. In the case of a UCI linked to the Fund by common management or control, or by a substantial direct or indirect holding, the UCI must be one that in accordance with its constitutional documents specialises in investments in Emerging Markets in accordance with the investment policy of the Sub-Fund and provided that such UCI is organised in jurisdictions where such vehicles are subject to control by a supervisory authority that is recognised as providing investor protection equivalent to that by Luxembourg authorities. Investments in UCI's may lead to a duplication of fees. The Sub-Fund may also invest in securities listed on the RTS Stock Exchange, on the Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange and on other regulated markets in Russia which would further be recognized as such by the Luxembourg authority. Investments on other markets in Russia, different from the before mentioned ones, fall under the restrictions of Article 16, Investment Guidelines, chapter 1.2. No fees or costs on account of the transaction relating to the shares or units in such UCI's may be charged by the Sub-Fund in the case of a UCI linked to the Fund by common management or control, or by a substantial direct or indirect holding. This Sub-Fund may hold liquidities on an ancillary basis. BPER International SICAV/ Sales Prospectus/ page 13

Risk Disclosure Use of Techniques and Instruments Retail Share Class Institutional Share Class Accounting Currency: The risks of expropriation, nationalisation and social, political and economic instabilities are greater in Emerging Markets as these markets have only reached an early stage of development. Investments in some of these markets may be affected by legal uncertainties (e.g., unresolved ownership rights) or by other factors arising from this special situation. It should also be taken into consideration that progress is not the same in all phases of this development and in all countries alike and that the resulting political effects can lead to temporary falls in the stock markets concerned. The most common risks associated with Emerging Markets may be summarised as follows: - fraudulent securities: given the lack of a regulatory structure it is possible that securities in which investments are made be found to be fraudulent. As a result, it is possible that loss may be suffered; - lack of liquidity: the accumulation and disposal of holdings may be more expensive, time consuming and generally more difficult than in more developed markets. In addition, due to the lack of liquidity, volatility may be higher. Many Emerging Markets are small, have low trading volumes, low liquidity and significant price volatility; - currency fluctuations: significant changes in the currencies of the countries in which investments are made vis-à-vis the Sub-Fund s accounting currency may occur following the investment of the Sub-Fund in these currencies. These changes may impact the total return of the Sub-Fund to a significant degree. In respect of currencies of certain emerging countries, it is not possible to undertake currency hedging techniques.; - repatriation restrictions: Emerging Markets may temporarily restrict or even prohibit the repatriation of currencies. In such cases the Sub-Fund may not be able to repatriate sales proceeds without any delay. In order to minimise the impact of these restrictions on redemption proceeds, the Sub-Fund shall diversify its investments in various Emerging Markets; - settlement and custody risks: settlement and custody systems in Emerging Markets are not as well developed as those in developed markets. Standards may not be as high and supervisory and regulatory authorities not as sophisticated. As a result there may be risks that settlement may be delayed and that cash or securities could be disadvantaged; - investment and remittance restrictions: in some cases, Emerging Markets may restrict the access for foreign investors to securities. As a result, certain equity securities may not always be available to the Sub-Fund, because the maximum permitted number of investment by foreign shareholders has been reached. In addition, the outward remittance by foreign investors of their share of net profits, capital and dividends may be restricted or require governmental approval. The Sub-Fund will only invest in markets in which it believes these restrictions to be acceptable. However, there can be no guarantee that additional restrictions will not be imposed; - accounting: accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, practises and disclosure requirements applicable to companies in Emerging Markets differ from those applicable in more developed markets in respect of the nature, quality and timeliness of the information disclosed to investors and, accordingly, investment possibilities may be difficult to properly assess. This Sub-Fund therefore addresses risk-conscious investors. This Sub-Fund may enter into transactions relating to techniques and instruments for investment purposes other than hedging in compliance with what is provided under Article 16, Investment Guidelines, chapter "Special techniques and instruments underlying securities and money market instruments" and in the interest of an orderly management of its assets. Due to their high volatility, investments in techniques and instruments are exposed to greater risks than direct investments in securities.

SUB-FUND 8 - BPER INTERNATIONAL SICAV - EQUITY EASTERN EUROPE Profile of the typical investor Historical performance Investment Policy Risk Disclosure The Sub-Fund is suitable for investors wanting to invest in a broadly diversified equity portfolio, including investments in Russia. The performance of the Sub-Fund is outlined in the key investor information document relating to the Sub-Fund. The aim of this Sub-Fund is to invest primarily in stocks and other equity shares of companies domiciled in Eastern European Countries or which are chiefly active in these markets. Some of these markets may not be stock exchanges or "regulated markets", as defined under Article 16, Investment Guidelines, chapter "1.1 "Permitted investments of the Fund",. Therefore, investments in such markets, together with any other investments in transferable securities and money market instruments as not defined in Article 16, Investment Guidelines, chapter "1.1 "Permitted investments of the Fund" may not account for more than 10% of the Sub-Fund s net assets. In addition, the Fund is authorised to invest on an ancillary basis in the equity markets of countries in the western part of Europe. This Sub-Fund may invest to a lesser extent of its net assets in closed-end undertakings for collective investments (UCI), in addition to its investments in open-ended UCIs. In the case of a UCI linked to the Fund by common management or control, or by a substantial direct or indirect holding, the UCI must be one that in accordance with its constitutional documents specialises in investments in Eastern Europe Countries in accordance with the investment policy of the Sub-Fund and provided that such UCI is organised in jurisdictions where such vehicles are subject to control by a supervisory authority that is recognised as providing investor protection equivalent to that provided by Luxembourg authorities. The Sub-Fund may also invest in securities listed on the RTS Stock Exchange, on the Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange and on other regulated markets in Russia which would further be recognized as such by the Luxembourg authority. Investments on other markets in Russia, different from the before mentioned ones, fall under the restrictions of Article 16, Investment Guidelines, chapter 1.2. Investments in UCI's may lead to a duplication of fees. No fees or costs on account of the transaction relating to the shares or units in such UCI's may be charged by the Sub-Fund in the case of a UCI linked to the Fund by common management or control, or by a substantial direct or indirect holding. This Sub-Fund may hold liquidities on an ancillary basis. Due to the political and economic changes taking place in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, investments in some of these markets may be affected by legal uncertainties (e.g., unresolved ownership rights) or by other factors arising from this special situation. It should also be taken into consideration that progress is not the same in all phases of this development and in all countries alike and that the resulting political effects can lead to temporary falls in the stock markets concerned. The most common risks associated with Central and Eastern European Markets may be summarised as follows: - fraudulent securities: given the lack of a regulatory structure it is possible that securities in which investments are made be found to be fraudulent. As a result, it is possible that loss may be suffered; - lack of liquidity: the accumulation and disposal of holdings may be more expensive, time consuming and generally more difficult than in more developed markets. In addition, due to the lack of liquidity, volatility may be higher. Many Central and Eastern European Markets are small, have low trading volumes, low liquidity and significant price volatility; - currency fluctuations: significant changes in the currencies of the countries in which investments are made vis-à-vis the Sub-Fund s accounting currency may occur following the investment of the Sub-Fund in these currencies. These changes may impact the total return of the Sub-Fund to a significant degree. In respect of currencies of certain emerging countries, it is not possible to undertake currency hedging techniques.; - settlement and custody risks: settlement and custody systems in Central and Eastern European Markets are not as well developed as those in developed markets.

Profile of the typical investor SUB-FUND 9 - BPER INTERNATIONAL SICAV GLOBAL CONVERTIBLE BOND EUR The Sub-Fund is suitable for investors wanting to invest in a broadly diversified portfolio of Global convertible bonds. Historical performance Investment Policy Use of Techniques and Instruments Retail Share Class The performance of the Sub-Fund is outlined in the key investor information document relating to the Sub-Fund. The aim of the Sub-Fund is to give the investors the opportunity to invest in a broadly diversified approach into the global convertible bond universe. The Sub-Fund enables the investors to incorporate convertible bonds as an asset class within an efficient portfolio and to improve the risk-return profile of the portfolio. The Sub-Fund is for investors wishing to participate in the growth of the stock market, but requiring a certain level of security, which is defined for a convertible issue by the so-called bond floor. It is the hybrid characteristics of convertible bonds which allow on the one hand side to benefit from the appreciation of the equity markets due to the increased value of conversion right embedded in a convertible bond and on the other hand to benefit from the security of a bond investment in times when the equity markets are less positive. Depending on the characteristics of the convertible bonds comprised in the Sub-Fund, the Sub-Fund may be more equity or bond sensitive and therefore correlate more with the equities or the bond markets. This Sub-Fund may hold liquidities on an ancillary basis. This Sub-Fund may enter into transactions relating to techniques and instruments for investment purposes other than hedging in compliance with what is provided under Article 16, Investment Guidelines, chapter "Special techniques and instruments underlying securities and money market instruments" and in the interest of an orderly management of its assets.
