  16. US Core Growth strategy • Important information This document is produced by BNP Paribas Asset Management (“BNPP AM”)*, a member of BNP Paribas Investment Partner (“BNPP IP”)**, for information purposes only, and does not constitute an offer to buy nor a solicitation to sell, nor shall it form the basis of or be relied upon in connection with any contract or commitment whatsoever, or be taken as investment advice. The information contained in this document is provided without prior knowledge of your circumstances, including your financial position, risk profile and investment objectives, and does not constitute a personal recommendation nor investment advice. Investors are recommended to seek the advice of their usual financial adviser in order to assess the suitability of a financial product as an investment. The institutional track-record shown in the present document (“the Institutional Track-Record”) is based on the unaudited performance of six different accounts shown over six consecutive time periods comprising the period covered by the track-record. Each account was managed in accordance with the US Core Growth equity management strategy of BNPP AM. For each time period, the account used was the segregated or institutional commingled account that, among those managed strictly in accordance with this strategy, was deemed at the time of inclusion to offer the most typical characteristics of an institutional account. By exception, in August 1999, the performance from a retail mutual fund using the same strategy was used due to the non-availability of a representative institutional account. While this retail mutual fund uses the same strategy, it cannot be considered fully representative since it is subject to daily changes in asset levels due to subscriptions and redemptions, and it is subject to a higher level of expenses (which do not include the advisory fee actually paid). From August 1999 till 25th September 2002, the accounts used were proprietary accounts of BNP Paribas and/or its subsidiaries. The Institutional Track-Record was re-calculated in June 2008 due to the discovery that certain performance, primarily in 2002, did not comport with that in our underlying documentation. Performance figures are calculated according to time-weighted total returns with net dividend, interest and other earnings reinvested. Unless indicated otherwise, performance figures are stated “gross of fees”, and do not reflect the deduction of advisory fees or other expenses that may be incurred in the management of an investment account. Returns will be reduced according to such deductions. For open-ended mutual funds, fee schedules and performance figures calculated net of fees may be obtained upon request. For institutional accounts, advisory fees will be set out in the management agreement between the client and investment adviser. Management fees compounded over a period of several years may affect the total value of an investor's portfolio (e.g. the impact of a 1.0% annual fee charged over 5 years would be in excess of 5%). Past performance is no guarantee of future results. An index, such as the S&P 500, is a broad measure of the market performance of a specific group of securities in a particular market or sector. You cannot invest directly in an index. An index does not have an adviser and does not pay commissions or expenses. If an index had expenses, its performance would be lower. Given the economic and market risks, there can be no assurance that the investment strategy mentioned herein will achieve its investment objectives. Returns are affected by, among other things, advisory or other expenses that may be incurred in the management of an investment account, the investment limitations and restrictions of the portfolio, applicable regulations and economic conditions. The value of an investment account may decline as well as rise. Investors may not get back the amount they originally invested. * BNPP AM is an investment manager registered with the “Autorité des Marchés Financiers” in France, a simplified joint stock company with a capital of 62,845,552 euros with its registered office at 1 boulevard Haussmann 75009 Paris, France, RCS Paris 319 378 832. www.bnpparibas-am.com. ** “BNP Paribas Investment Partners” is the global brand name of the BNP Paribas group’s asset management services.
