Financial advisers are regulated by the Financial Markets Authority to varying levels, depending on the type of adviser and the nature of the services they provide. Some financial advisers are only allowed to provide advice on a limited range of products. 37 37 When seeking or receiving financial advice, you should check the type of adviser you are dealing with: the services the adviser can provide you with: the products the adviser can advise you on. A financial adviser who provides you with personalised financial adviser services may be required to give you a disclosure statement covering these and other matters. You should ask your adviser about how he or she is paid and any conflicts of interest he or she may have. Financial advisers must have a complaints process in place and they, or the financial services provider they work for, must belong to a dispute resolution scheme if they provide services to retail clients. So if there is a dispute over an investment, you can ask someone independent to resolve it. Most financial advisers, or the financial services provider they work for, must also be registered on the financial service providers register.

Key Information Summary Key terms What is LifeSaver? Who can join LifeSaver? What are the benefits? When can I withdraw my money from LifeSaver? Who is the provider of LifeSaver? What funds can I invest in? Description LifeSaver is a superannuation scheme that has been designed to help you to grow a retirement fund that can help secure the lifestyle you would like to enjoy in later years. New membership in LifeSaver is open to natural persons who: are New Zealand residents; and are over 18 years of age; and meet the eligibility criteria to join their Employer s LifeSaver scheme (if applicable). LifeSaver has been established to help you save for your retirement. Some people achieve this by locking away their retirement savings until they reach a specified age. You can decide to lock in all or part of your LifeSaver investment until you reach age 50 or older. If you join LifeSaver as part of your Employer s LifeSaver scheme, or have agreed Employer contributions separately with your Employer, your Employer may also make contributions to your account. In relation to Employee Investors: Subject to any Locked-in Interest, retirement, resignation, redundancy and ill health benefits will be payable upon ceasing employment. In some circumstances you may be able to elect insurance cover. If this is made available to you the details will be included in the Supplement. Some Employers will pay certain fees instead of these being charged to your account. If this is the case, the details will be included in the Supplement. Employee Investors will need to read the Supplement to determine the circumstances under which benefits are payable or withdrawals can be made. Individual Investors are able to make withdrawals at any time, subject to any lock in requirements, meeting minimum withdrawal amounts and maximum withdrawal frequency requirements. You can also use LifeSaver to manage your nest egg after you retire. Generally, you can take out lump sums, set-up a regular payment to your bank account or just leave your savings to accumulate until you need them. Fisher Funds Management Limited (Fisher Funds) is the Administration Manager, Investment Manager and Promoter of LifeSaver. Trustees Executors Limited (TEL) is the Trustee and Issuer of LifeSaver. LifeSaver has a total of seven investment funds. Individual Investors have access to all seven investment funds. Employee Investors have access to the investment funds specified in the Supplement. The seven investment funds are: Preservation Fund; Conservative Fund; Growth Fund; Trans Tasman Equity Fund; New Zealand Fixed Income Fund; Balanced Fund; Equity Fund; and each an investment fund, and together the investment funds. You can invest in one or more of the investment funds in any proportion that you wish, or you can select from six investment strategies (a carefully designed investment mix to fit a specific investor profile).

Key terms How much do I have to pay? What are the risks? What are the charges? Does anyone guarantee the investment? Who can I contact for further information? Further information If you are an Employee Investor, you are required to contribute a minimum amount as specified in the Supplement from your after-tax salary or wages. You can reduce, suspend or terminate your contributions by giving written notice to your Employer. If you are an Individual Investor, you can choose the amount that you contribute. There is currently no minimum contribution requirement. You can choose to make regular contributions or lump sum payments at any time. If you are an Individual Investor, you will need to maintain a minimum balance in your account. If you are an Employee Investor, you will need to comply with any requirements of your Employer s LifeSaver scheme (if applicable). All investments involve a degree of risk. The potential return on an investment is generally related to the risk of the investment. The key factor that determines your returns is the investment performance of the investment funds you are invested in. The performance of an investment fund is determined by the investment fund s asset allocation. Generally, investment funds that are invested in a higher proportion of growth assets will have the potential for higher returns in the long term but experience more volatility. Investment funds that are invested in a higher proportion of income assets will have lower potential returns but have less volatility and therefore have less risk attached to them. Each investment fund is charged a management fee which is deducted from the assets of the investment fund and paid to us. Trustee fees and expenses may also be deducted from your account and paid to the Trustee. An administration fee may also be deducted from your account and paid to the Trustee who then pays it to the Administration Manager. You may also be charged an entry fee, service fee or contribution fee. In respect of Individual Investors, the fee is agreed between you and your financial adviser and paid as commission. If you are an Employee Investor, you will need to refer to the Supplement to determine how the fees and expenses described above are charged. Each investment fund may invest in other funds which may charge fees and incur expenses. The Trust Deed limits the maximum amount of Trustee and investment management fees, and costs associated with investment management to 1.5% per annum of the gross assets of an Employer s LifeSaver scheme or an Individual Investor s account. The limit does not apply to other fees and expenses such as administration fees, brokerage, printing and postage and the cost of insurance. None of Fisher Funds, the Trustee, or any other person or company, guarantees or promises the repayment of, or returns on, investments in LifeSaver. You can check the balance of your account, obtain information and check your membership details through www.supersite.co.nz. If you have any questions about your account, you can contact your financial adviser (if you have one), email us at lifesaver@fisherfunds.co.nz, call us on 0508 FISHER (0508 347 437) or write to us at our address.

What is the purpose of this document? This document provides information about personal superannuation and explains how LifeSaver, as part of an overall retirement savings plan, can help you achieve your retirement goals. It begins by explaining how LifeSaver works and the options that you have. The back part of the document contains information that must be provided to you by law. If you do decide to join LifeSaver, the Application Form is on page 41. Once we receive your first contribution, we ll send you confirmation of your enrolment. Why choose personal superannuation? Living off New Zealand Superannuation Most of us are likely to live for many years in retirement. If you don t have a savings plan you could end up having to rely on NZ Superannuation alone, and that may not be easy as the graph below indicates. Comparing your current income vs NZ Super income at retirement Weekly Net Income $1,400 $1,200 $1,000 $800 $600 $400 $200 $0 $653 $942 $1,334 $366.94 $40k Salary $60K Salary $90k Salary NZ Super Without saving, could you afford to live the lifestyle you want in retirement? This graph is based on a single person living alone from the age of entitlement to NZ Super, currently age 65. The weekly net income amounts for each salary level are based on the current applicable personal tax rates. To live the lifestyle you want in retirement whether it s owning your own home, travelling the world, or creating a better future for you and your family you ll probably need extra savings to do it. LifeSaver can help you get there. Adequate retirement savings and income Most people prefer to have more funds on hand in their retirement than NZ Superannuation will provide. It makes sense to set aside some income earned today, or postpone spending an inheritance, redundancy payout or windfall, in order to save it for future use. A personal superannuation fund is an excellent option to save for retirement. The investment process is simple. You can choose a fund that matches your personal goals, needs, objectives, and tolerance for investment risk. You should consult an AFA before making any decisions to invest. With personal superannuation, you can accumulate a nest egg during your working life so that you can withdraw extra income to supplement NZ Superannuation, once you are retired. Sign up now! Choosing to invest in personal superannuation is ultimately a decision about the comfort and quality of life you want in retirement. If you want to be able to afford more of the things you enjoy once you are retired, there s no better time to start saving than right now. The sooner you begin your retirement savings, the more likely you will have saved up enough for the day you retire. 6

Information on how your LifeSaver savings are invested Your investment options LifeSaver has seven investment funds, each with a different risk versus return profile based on the mix of assets they are invested in. You can build your own investment strategy by investing in the investment funds of your choice or consult an AFA to help you choose. The investment funds invest in various different asset classes such as cash, fixed interest, commercial property, shares and alternative investments depending on the Statement of Investment Policy and Objectives (SIPO) for each investment fund. Broadly speaking, the asset classes which the investment funds invest in can be categorised as being either income or growth assets. Growth assets are those which tend to give higher returns over the long term but experience more volatility (movements up or down in the value of your investment) than income assets in the short term. The mix of income and growth assets therefore determines the risk versus return profile of the investment funds. Note: Short term refers to up to three years, medium term refers to three to seven years and long term refers to over seven years. Income assets Income assets aim to provide investors with more stable returns primarily sourced from interest payments. In some cases capital gains may be received as well. Income assets are generally considered to be lower risk than growth assets, however there is still a potential for capital losses. Income assets include: Cash Short-term, easily sold interest-bearing investments. All investments will have less than 180 days to maturity and may include government bills, bank bills, bank certificates of deposit and short-term debt securities issued by corporate businesses or local authorities. Cash is the lowest risk, most conservative asset class, but generally provides lower returns than the other asset classes. Fixed interest Medium-term to longer-term fixed interest-bearing investments e.g. bonds issued by governments or their agencies and medium-term and long-term debt securities issued by corporate businesses or local authorities. Some capital gains may also be achieved if the fixed interest securities increase in market value. There is also the potential for capital losses to be incurred if the fixed interest securities decrease in market value. Fixed interest is higher risk than cash because of the longer-term commitment of funds, but higher returns than those from cash are generally expected. Fixed interest assets can be sourced locally or from overseas. Growth assets Returns from growth assets are primarily sourced from capital gains, but may also pay income from rentals or dividends received. Growth assets are generally considered to be higher risk than income assets with the potential for capital losses being greater than with income assets. 8

Growth assets include: Commercial property Real estate used for business purposes and broadly classified as retail, industrial or office and general. Income is received from commercial tenant rentals and capital gains may arise from increases in the market value of the property. There is also the potential for capital losses if the market value of the property declines. Commercial property is higher risk than cash or fixed interest, but is generally expected to provide better longer-term returns. Shares Shares in companies that are usually traded on share markets both locally and overseas (also called equities). Capital gains may be generated through shares when their share price increases. In addition, income may also be received from dividends paid by the companies. There is the potential for capital losses if shares decrease in value. Shares have higher risk than cash, fixed interest or commercial property, and can fluctuate significantly in value, but are generally expected to provide greater returns over the longer term. Alternative investments Alternative investments refer to a broad range of assets that do not fall within the main asset classes referred to above. Alternative investments are diverse, with generally higher risk and greater potential return characteristics than the main asset classes. Derivatives Derivatives can be used as an alternative to physical assets or as a risk management tool. There are many types of Derivatives and we generally use them to gain exposure to the underlying assets (they will have a similar risk to the underlying assets), to hedge currency exposure, or to reduce risk in the portfolio. Derivatives are not used as a speculative tool to generate returns. Diversification Diversification is the strategy of spreading your money amongst a number of different investments to reduce your risk. If you own a number of different investments and one performs poorly, your portfolio won t be affected as much as if you just owned the poor performer. Diversification is not just about the number of different investments you own it s also about the type of investments. If they are all similar investments that are impacted by the same things, then having a number of them doesn t necessarily protect your portfolio. Diversification reduces the volatility of a portfolio, and allows for more consistent performance under a wide range of economic conditions. A diversified portfolio is described as conservative if it holds significantly more income assets (cash, fixed interest) than growth assets (commercial property, shares, alternative investments), and growth if it contains significantly more growth assets than income assets. Conservative portfolios aim for lower volatility with less focus on returns, whereas growth portfolios aim to achieve higher returns, but experience more volatility and therefore have more risk attached to them. 9

Investment Tip The longer your investment timeframe, the more you may be comfortable with an investment strategy that consists of more growth assets. We think growth assets are important, as most LifeSaver members have a long time to save for their retirement. Historically, investing in growth assets has produced better long-term investment returns than conservative assets, minimising the impact of inflation over time. However, if you are nearing retirement or saving for your first home, you may want to have a more conservative investment approach. Income assets such as cash and fixed interest typically produce more stable returns in the short term. You are not locked into an investment strategy for life. If your situation or thinking changes, you can change your investment strategy at no cost. Choose your own investment strategy You can opt for one of our six investment strategies (a carefully designed investment mix to fit a specific investor profile) by completing the questionnaire on pages 14 and 15 where an investment strategy will be suggested for you. These are: Preservation Strategy (100% Preservation Fund) Conservative Strategy (100% Conservative Fund) Conservative Balanced Strategy (50% Conservative Fund, 50% Balanced Fund) Balanced Strategy (100% Balanced Fund) Balanced Growth Strategy (40% Balanced Fund, 60% Growth Fund) Growth Equity Strategy (40% Growth Fund, 60% Equity Fund). One of the most important decisions to make when joining LifeSaver is how you want your savings to be invested. You might not have the skills or experience to manage investments (that is what we do for you) but it is in your best interests to tell us which investment strategy you prefer so that we can manage your savings appropriately. We understand that every investor has different investment goals (and timeframes in which to achieve these) and that investors have varying appetites for risk. We have developed LifeSaver to allow you to select the investment strategy that you consider meets your needs. Important consideration when choosing your investment strategy Before choosing your investment strategy it is important that you think about: your investment timeframe (how long you will be saving before you take out money for your retirement); and your risk tolerance (how comfortable you are with the value of your savings fluctuating). Additional information for Employee Investors Investors who are joining LifeSaver through their Employer s LifeSaver scheme can only select those investment funds that are available to them, as listed in the Supplement. If your Employer offers the Preservation, Conservative, Balanced, Growth and Equity investment funds, then the investment strategies are available to you. If your Employer does not offer all five of these investment funds, the investment strategies are not available to you. 13

18 Asset classes and allocations The investment funds may gain exposure to the asset classes described in the diagrams on pages 10 to 12 directly (by buying the assets), indirectly (by investing in other managed funds which hold the assets, including other funds managed by Fisher Funds) or artificially (by purchasing Derivatives). As at the date of this Investment Statement, Fisher Funds has chosen to gain investment exposure to international fixed interest investments for the: Conservative Fund and Growth Fund through investment in Underlying funds which hold a segregated pool of assets of which Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (PIMCO) is the investment manager, as well as a further segregated pool of assets of which Wellington International Management Company Pte Ltd (Wellington) is the investment manager, however this may change in the future, and some international fixed interest assets may be held directly. Balanced Fund through investment in Underlying funds which invest in the PIMCO Cayman Global Bond (NZD Hedged) Fund, a managed fund of which PIMCO is the investment manager, and a segregated pool of assets of which Wellington is the investment manager, however it is intended that in future the Balanced Fund will gain exposure as above. As at the date of this Investment Statement, both PIMCO and Wellington undertake foreign currency hedging on the international fixed interest investments they respectively manage in relation to the Conservative Fund, Balanced Fund and Growth Fund, however we may take over some or all of the currency hedging in the future without notification to you. As at the date of this Investment Statement, Fisher Funds has chosen to gain investment exposure to emerging market shares for the Conservative Fund, Balanced Fund, Growth Fund, and Equity Fund through investment in an Underlying fund which invests in the PFS Somerset Emerging Markets Dividend Growth Fund, a managed fund of which Somerset Capital Management LLP is the investment manager, however this may change in the future without notice to you. Asset specific risks Each asset class in which an investment fund invests has specific risks. The main risks associated with each asset class are: Cash: the main risk is inflation risk the value of an investment fund s cash assets not keeping pace with inflation (meaning that though the assets steadily grow in value their purchasing power reduces over time). The value of cash assets can also be affected by credit risk a borrower or other counterparty being unable to pay interest or repay a loan; Fixed Interest: the main risk is interest rate risk - a fixed interest asset may become more or less valuable depending upon changes in market interest rates (if these rise, the asset becomes less valuable). The value of fixed interest assets can also be affected by credit risk in the same way as cash assets. Another key risk with international fixed interest assets is currency risk; Shares: the main risk is market risk - the value of an investment fund s share assets will be affected by the economic performance of a particular company or sector and general market performance. Another key risk with international share assets is currency risk; and Property: the main risk is market risk the value of an investment fund s property assets will be affected by factors such as demand (generally for property or for the location), the general economy, market sentiment and movements in interest rates. Another key risk is liquidity risk - the property market generally has greater liquidity risk than the share market. The relative significance of these specific risks will be affected by an Investment Fund s asset allocations from time to time. Please refer to the section headed What are my risks? on page 30 for more information on the risks referred to above and for information on other risks that apply to the investment funds. Fisher Funds may invest directly (by buying the assets), indirectly (by investing in other managed funds which hold the assets, including other funds managed by Fisher Funds) or artificially (by purchasing Derivatives), and changes may be made without notice to you.

While the asset allocations of each investment fund will, over the long-term, target the levels for the investment funds as shown in the diagrams on pages 10 to 12, the actual asset allocations will vary from time to time. Such variations may be due to market movements or due to us (or the manager of the Underlying funds) varying the allocations away from the target levels for a variety of reasons, including managing risk, increasing potential returns or managing cashflow requirements. Any variation away from the target asset allocation levels must remain within a permitted range. Alternative investments The Conservative Fund, the Balanced Fund and the Growth Fund may also have exposure, either directly or indirectly, to alternative investments from time to time. While the target asset allocation level for alternative investments for each of these investment funds is currently 0%, the Conservative Fund and the Balanced Fund may each invest up to 10% of their value and the Growth Fund may invest up to 15% of its value in alternative assets. Alternative investments are discussed further on page 9. Hedging of foreign currency The Conservative Fund, Balanced Fund, Growth Fund, Equity Fund, and from time to time, the Trans Tasman Equity Fund, invest in asset classes that are denominated in foreign currencies. To reduce the risk of adverse currency fluctuations, foreign currency hedging is undertaken. International fixed interest assets (bonds) are usually fully offset against the New Zealand dollar. International shares may be offset to some degree against the New Zealand dollar, however we or the manager of the relevant Underlying fund may vary the actual hedging levels with the aim of increasing potential returns. Actual hedging levels may also vary due to the changing values of the international assets. Currency hedging may be undertaken by the investment fund or the Underlying funds.
