NAV per unit USD 88.19 Total NAV USD 988,635,806 No. units 11,209,426 Against a backdrop of the beginning of the end to QE, December proved to be a slightly volatile month for the fund, with gains in stocks, FX and credit offset by losses in rates and bonds. As 2013 drew to a close, markets traded nervously towards the last FOMC meeting of the year believing it would most likely signal start of QE tapering. In the run up to the meeting, equities sold -off on weaker news in Europe, and the S&P500 retreated from recent new highs to trade nearly 3% lower by mid-month. It is fair to say that the Fed surprised on the upside by providing a sensitive reduction in current asset purchases; the S&P500 bounced over 2.5% intraday and onwards to new highs since. European stocks had suffered a more severe early month correction; the DAX typified this by falling more than 4% through the first two weeks of the month, only to see a similar bounce back reaction following the Fed meeting s announcement. For the fund, stocks, credit and currencies were the biggest winners of the month. There was a strong continuation of trend with the euro seeing appreciation of nearly 25% year to date against the Japanese yen. Short positions in Brazilian real added significantly to the fund as the currency saw further weakness despite of overnight rates being raised for a 6th consecutive time this year. The credit contribution was also strong with generally positive economic news and the messages from the Fed encouraging a further significant tightening in spreads. European markets particularly saw little in the way of widened spreads during the early equity market sell-off. However, the reaction to the Fed news was another significant tightening of spreads, with 5 year cross-over breaking the significant 300bp barrier. In the US, the investment grade CDX credit index finally pushed lower from the psychologically significant 70 level below 65. Bonds and rates were worst hit during the month as the news from the Fed finally saw an explicit start to the cut back in QE bond purchasing. Five year treasuries were most affected with yields climbing sharply for the first time in three months; from around 130bp at the end of November to more than 167bp going into the Christmas holidays. Small longs were reduced significantly through the month to end almost flat.

These indices are not benchmarks as they are not representative of the fund's investment strategy. They should therefore be seen as comparisons of asset classes. 2 The chart shows longterm risk allocation calculated at the start of the reporting period versus the current sector risk allocations calculated at the end of the period. The current sector allocations give an indicative value of the relative risk of the positions taken within each sector at a given point in time; this number takes no account of correlations across sectors. The long-term risk allocations are designed to reflect the expected long-term risk exposure to each sector relative to the other sectors in the portfolio. The portfolio structure and constituents are regularly reviewed by the investment management team and sector allocations will change accordingly. 3 The key market attribution chart gives an indication of which markets have contributed most to the overall performance, both positively and negatively, of the markets traded. 4 Stock Indices 5 Agriculturals 6 Credit 7 Energies 8 Bonds 9 Interest rates 10 Currencies 11 Metals Source: Man database and Bloomberg.

A decision to invest in the Fund should not be based solely on the returns of the Man AHL Diversified plc Fund. The types of transactions engaged in on behalf of Man AHL Diversified plc (the "Fund") involve significant risks. This is only a summary of certain risks of investing in a Fund. A Fund's confidential offering documents ("Offering Documents") contain a more exhaustive discussion of these issues and should be read in its entirety. ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENT PRODUCT RISKS AND OTHER DISCLOSURES The alternative investment products described herein are private investment funds (sometimes called hedge funds ). Private Investment funds managed by Man Investments and/or their respective affiliates (collectively, the Funds ) are unregistered private investment funds or pools that may invest and trade in many different markets, strategies and instruments (including securities, non-securities and derivatives) and are NOT subject to the same regulatory requirements as mutual funds, including mutual fund requirements to provide certain periodic and standardized pricing and valuation information to investors. There are substantial risks in investing in the Funds, which are applicable to the underlying private funds in which the Funds invest, as well as to the Funds. You should note carefully the following: - The Funds represent speculative investments and involve a high degree of risk. An investor could lose all or a substantial portion of his/her investment. Investors must have the financial ability, sophistication/experience and willingness to bear the risks of an investment in a Fund. - An investment in a Fund should be discretionary capital set aside strictly for speculative purposes. - An investment in a Fund is not suitable or desirable for all investors. Only qualified eligible investors may invest in the Funds. - The Funds' offering documents are not reviewed or approved by federal or state regulators. - The Funds may be leveraged (including highly leveraged) and a Fund's performance may be volatile. - An investment in a Fund may be illiquid and there may be significant restrictions on transferring interests in a Fund. There is no secondary market for an investor's investment in a Fund and none is expected to develop. - A Fund may have little or no operating history or performance and may use hypothetical or pro forma performance which may not reflect actual trading done by the manager or advisor and should be reviewed carefully. Investors should not place undue reliance on hypothetical or pro forma performance. - A Fund's discretionary manager or advisor has total trading authority over such Fund. - A Fund may use a single advisor or employ a single strategy, which could mean a lack of diversification and higher risk. - A Fund and its managers or advisors may rely on the trading expertise and experience of third-party managers or advisors, the identity of which may not be disclosed to investors. - A Fund may involve a complex tax structure, which should be reviewed carefully. - A Fund may involve structures or strategies that may cause delays in important tax information being sent to investors. - A Fund may trade commodity interests (directly or indirectly). The risk of loss in trading commodity interests is substantial. - A Fund may execute a substantial portion of trades on foreign exchanges, which could mean higher risk. 9 5/6

- A Fund's fees and expenses - which may be substantial regardless of any positive return - will offset such Fund's trading profits. - The Funds are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information to investors. - The Funds and their managers/advisors may be subject to various conflicts of interest. The above summary is not a complete list of the risks and other important disclosures involved in investing in the Funds and is subject to the more complete disclosures contained in the Funds' respective confidential offering documents, which must be reviewed carefully.
