INVESTMENT STRATEGY - oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic Equity Non-Equity (Islamic) EquityEXTRA Fund DividendEXTRA Fund (Equity Funds) ASnitaBOND Fund (Bond Fund) Equity (Islamic) Amanah Saham Wanita (Equity Fund) Unlimited Free Switches Switching from a Shariah-compliant Fund to a conventional Fund is not encouraged especially for Muslim Unit Holders. oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic is an investment strategy that comprises two types of diversified, professionally managed unit trust funds – equity and non-equity Funds, and is categorised into conventional and Shariah-compliant funds. The strategy is designed for investors who wish to participate simultaneously in two major asset classes while retaining total flexibility in the asset allocation decision. The Funds complement each other in terms of their contrasting attributes and the investment strategy seeks investor’s active participation by allowing easy, convenient switching between the Funds when there is a change in market conditions and interest rate direction, or a change in the investor’s risk tolerance and investment objectives. Your Choice of Asset Class Each Fund is designed with different objectives, which allows the investor maximum flexibility to choose the Fund that best meets his investment goals and risk tolerance depending on the changes in market conditions and interest rate direction. The following Funds are open-ended unit trust funds: ASnitaBOND (Islamic bond/income fund); EquityEXTRA (equity/growth fund); DividendEXTRA (equity/income fund); and ASnita (Islamic equity/growth and to a lesser extent income fund). You may invest in one or more Funds with complete flexibility to switch between the Funds. The switches are free and at NAV per Unit to NAV per Unit, subject to the availability of Units. No switching fee is imposed on any of the switches so as to encourage profit taking (if any) (i.e. from holding in equity Funds and reinvestment in bond Funds.) The switches also facilitate „cost averaging‟ by shifting the holding in bond Funds to equity Funds gradually, over a reasonable time interval. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 10 STANDALONE ASNITABOND Investors may invest in ASnitaBOND on a standalone basis (for those who do not want or who are not ready to invest in the equity market) without the benefit of the switch option available to them if they were to invest through oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic. Investors can avail themselves to the oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic switch option through a conversion facility (refer to page 24 for details). The standalone ASnitaBOND refer to the ASnitaBOND Fund under the oneINVEST / which has no switch option but charges a lower sales charge. oneINVEST Islamic strategy Special Features and Advantages of Investing Through oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic Investor Driven Allows investor to set up an investment portfolio reflecting his individual risk profile, objective and investment time frame. Dynamic yet Flexible Designed for maximum flexibility by allowing multiple switches between the Funds to take advantage of changes in market conditions and interest rate direction. Unlimited free of charge switches between equity Funds and non-equity Funds at NAV per Unit to NAV per Unit. Professional Management Disciplined top down investment process incorporating appraisal of global and domestic economic trends, asset class evaluation, sector analysis and security analysis. Prudent risk management procedures and diversification. Active Participation by the Investor Enables investor to be more financially aware of changing trends in the financial markets and the impact on his investments. Encourages investor to adopt a more pro-active approach to personal investing. Convenience and Expertise The fund managers will conduct detailed investment research which the individual investor may not have the time or resources to carry out. The investor is kept informed with regular performance reports and market updates. Rebalancing or adjustments of the portfolio can be done conveniently by filing up and submitting a switch form to any Nationwide Investor Care and Service Centres. Transparency and Single Pricing (with sales charge) It is the pricing method whereby selling of units by the Management Company (i.e. when you purchase units) and repurchase of units by the Management Company(i.e. when you liquidate your units) will be carried out at NAV per Unit (the actual value of a unit). The sales or repurchase charge (if any) would be computed separately based on your net investment or liquidation amount and separate from the price per unit. With „Single Pricing‟, you invest and liquidate at one price – NAV per Unit (i.e. there is no spread between the selling price and buying price). LIB adopted this practice since its establishment in September 1999 which follows the international trend. In this pricing methodology, investments and liquidations in unit trust funds are made at NAV per Unit at the end of a valuation point (usually at the end of the Business Day). Hence, at the point of investment, you can readily determine the maximum charge (computed based on your net investment amount) you would incur even before the NAV per Unit is known. The charge is clearly stated in your confirmation of investment (separate from your net investment sum) which is generally sent to the investor within ten (10) Business Days. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 11 Competitive and Fair Sales Charge Timely and efficient service at competitive and fair cost is the service philosophy which drives LIB. Presently, the maximum sales charge for investments through other than through EPF Members‟ Investment Scheme is 5% of the Fund‟s NAV. Deal Direct In its commitment to bring personalised investor care and attention to its investors, LIB has made a unique stance to offer its funds and investment expertise predominantly through its full-time salaried employees. However, investors may opt to go through appointed third party distributors or agency force. As salaried employees of the company, they are focused on enhancing investors‟ total investment experience with LIB over the long term. Regular All-In-One Statement/Report Investors will regularly receive an all-in-one statement/report showing their oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic portfolio performance. Details of initial and additional investments plus value and cost of your unitholdings are clearly set out in our regular all-in-one statement/report. These detailed updates are designed to provide you with the necessary information to better monitor your long term investment goals. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 12 4.

Past performance of the Funds is not an indication of future performance. Investors who intend to finance an investment in a Shariah-compliant fund, or for that matter any Shariah-compliant investment, are advised to seek for Islamic financing to finance their investment. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 35 5. RISK FACTORS The risk management team works in tandem with the investment team to ensure the level of risk is suitable to the Funds‟ overall performance targets. The Funds are constructed and managed within the pre-set investment guidelines i.e. the risk budgets. The risk mitigation strategies adopted by the Manager includes diversification, due diligence, reviews and hedging. The Funds may experience any combination of the risks listed below depending on the types of securities in which the Fund invests. Generally, the specific risks of a fund that invests primarily in equities are market risk, specific risk and liquidity risk, whilst the specific risks of a fund that invests primarily in fixed income are interest rate risk, credit/default risk, inflation/purchasing power risk and liquidity risk. Risk specific to LLF is financial institution risk. With respect to interest rate risk, it should be noted that interest rate is a general economic indicator that will have an impact on the management of Funds regardless of whether it is a Shariah-compliant fund or otherwise. This does not in any way suggest that SyariahEXTRA, ASnita and ASnitaBOND will invest in conventional financial instruments. All investments carried out for SyariahEXTRA, ASnita and ASnitaBOND are in accordance with the Shariah requirements. The Funds that invest in foreign markets may also be exposed to currency risk and country risk. General risks: Risk of Non-Compliance The Fund‟s objective may be affected should the Management Company and the fund managers not adhere to the Funds investment mandate. To maintain the Fund‟s integrity, sufficient internal policies, controls and monitoring must be in place to protect the interests of Unit Holders. In this instance, the compliance unit of the Management Company would oversee the operations of the Fund to reduce and minimise instances of non-compliance with internal policies and the relevant laws, regulations and guidelines. Fund Manager Risk The performance of the Fund depends on the experience, knowledge and expertise of the fund manager and the investment strategies adopted. The risk remains that the securities which the fund manager selected will not perform as expected. This could cause the Fund‟s returns to lag behind similar funds‟ returns. Returns Not Guaranteed As a result of the risk elements described herein, the returns from the Fund are not guaranteed. Investment returns and the principal value will vary. When sold, an investment may be worth more or less than when purchased. Loan Financing Risk Investors must be aware of the inherent risk involved with loan financing of the Fund, which would include the ability to pay instalments, which may be affected by unforeseen circumstances such as an increase in interest rate and the ability to provide additional collateral should the value of investment fall below a certain level. Political Risk The investments of the Fund may be adversely affected by political instability as well as exchange controls, changes in taxation, foreign investment policies, restriction on repatriation of investments and other restrictions and controls which may be imposed by the relevant authorities in the relevant countries. The Manager shall implement a stringent screening process in respect of the country and region prior to investing to assess the impact of such risk to the performance of the investments. Regulatory Risk Any changes in national or economic policies or regulations may have an adverse effect on the capital markets and could sequentially have an impact on the investments of the Fund. To mitigate the impact of regulatory risk, the Manager will seek to keep abreast of regulatory developments that may affect specific investments of the Fund while attempting to pre-empt any regulatory changes that may adversely impact the investments of the Fund. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 36 Specific Risks in Equity Funds: Market Risk This is a class of risk that inherently exists in an economy and cannot be avoided by any business or company. It is usually due to changes in the economic outlook and affects the confidence of the broad market. Market risk cannot be removed from an investment portfolio by diversification. Investors should, therefore, note that the performance of the Fund might go up or down in accordance with market movement. Specific Risk This class of risk represents the risk unique to a particular company due to company-specific factors such as capital structure, quality of management, nature of business, and others. This risk may be greatly reduced through diversification. The fund manager‟s expertise will also help to reduce exposure to specific risk through proper research prior to sector and stock selection, and by adopting defensive stock selection strategies at appropriate times. Liquidity Risk In a weak and thinly traded market where the transaction volume is low, the investments in the Fund may not be liquidated in the desired amounts without causing the market price of the securities to fall sharply. The fund manager aims to reduce liquidity risk by investing mainly in companies with large market capitalisation of not less than RM200 million, and are fairly liquid. Currency Risk The Funds that invest abroad are subject to currency risk as some of their investments will be denominated in foreign currencies. The value of these Funds as expressed in RM will fluctuate in tandem with the changes in the exchange rate between the RM and other currencies. This risk can be mitigated by investing in a portfolio of assets with diverse foreign currencies to avoid over-concentration in a single foreign currency. The Fund may also seek to reduce this risk by hedging the currency exposure. Country Risk The Fund‟s exposure in foreign investments may be affected by risks specific to the country which it invests in. Such risks may include changes in the general political and economic conditions, government policies, tax regime and currency fluctuations. These changes can adversely affect operating profit as well as the value of the assets that the Fund has invested in. Diversifying the Fund‟s exposure into various foreign markets will mitigate the country risk of the portfolio. Reclassification of Shariah Status Risk This risk refers to the currently held Shariah-compliant securities in the portfolio of Shariah-compliant Funds that may be reclassified to be Shariah non-compliant upon review of the securities by SACSC performed twice yearly. If this occurs, the fund manager will take the necessary steps to dispose of such securities. Sectorial Risk This is a risk that is associated with a downturn in demand for goods and services offered by a particular sector in which the Fund invests in. Typically, this is linked to adverse economic conditions. Credit/Default Risk Credit risk arises when there is a possibility that an issuer is unable to pay interest/profit due and/or the principal on time. The fund manager expects to be able to reduce credit risk substantially by conducting thorough credit analysis before investment, by investing mainly in issues with at least a P3 by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies for short term papers and BBB by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies for long term bonds/sukuk and by diversifying the portfolio. Investors are to note that some of the equity funds are permitted to invest in bonds/sukuk and also placement of cash with financial institutions for diversification purposes. The credit rating of the bond/sukuk issuers and the financial institutions may be downgraded by the rating agencies due to credit default. As a result, it may affect the performance of the Funds. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 37 Derivatives Risk The Fund may use derivative instruments as part of its investment strategy. Derivative instruments are financial contracts whose value depends on, or are derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index. The derivative instruments may include futures, options, warrant and swaps and the underlying assets, rates and indices may include bonds/sukuk, stocks, interest rates, currency exchanges rates, and bond/sukuk, stock and commodity indices. These derivatives allow for the use of leverage which may increase the volatility in the NAV and the NAV per Unit of the Fund, if the market goes against the position of the derivatives. The Management Company may use derivatives such as options and futures for hedging existing positions, efficient portfolio management and/or to meet the investment objectives of the Fund. There are various risks associated with derivatives use. The process by which the Management Company assesses, monitors and controls some of the more important types of risk such as market risk, liquidity risk and currency risk which have a direct influence on the Fund‟s NAV are mentioned in this section. The Manager will ensure that the exposure to derivative instruments will NOT at any time exceed 100% of the Fund‟s NAV at all times. The Fund‟s investments in derivatives (if any) shall always be subject to the restrictions stipulated under the sub-heading, investment spread limits; sub-paragraph of investment restriction on derivatives. The types of derivatives that may be used by the Management Company will include those traded on an exchange such as Bursa Malaysia and those exchanges approved by the relevant regulatory authority. For Shariah-compliant Funds, such derivatives must comply with Shariah. Counterparty Risk There is a risk that a financial institution may default on its repayment/payment obligations with regard to repurchase agreements and other contracts, or derivative investments made by the Fund. The Management Company aims to mitigate this risk by performing fundamental credit research and analysis to determine the creditworthiness of its counterparty, and thereby impose careful credit limit as a precautionary step to limit any loss that may arise directly or indirectly as a result of the defaulted transaction. Any default by the counterparty would affect the NAV of the Fund. In mitigating this risk, the Management Company will invest in the instrument via counterparties such as banks or financial institutions with a high credit rating, at least „A‟ by Standard & Poor‟s or its equivalent by any other reputable domestic or global rating agency. Thereafter, the Management Company will constantly monitor the credit rating of the counterparty. If the rating of the counterparty falls below the minimum requirements, the Management Company may look to sell/redeem the instrument, or replace with another instrument with a similar underlying asset or objective. Specific Risks in Fixed Income/Sukuk Funds: Market Risk This is a class of risk that inherently exists in an economy and cannot be avoided by any business or company. It is usually due to changes in the economic outlook and affects the confidence of the broad market. Market risk cannot be removed from an investment portfolio by diversification. Investors should, therefore, note that the performance of the Fund might go up or down in accordance with market movement. Credit/Default Risk Credit risk arises when there is a possibility that an issuer is unable to pay interest/profit due and/or the principal on time. The fund manager expects to be able to reduce credit risk substantially by conducting thorough credit analysis before investment, by investing mainly in issues with at least a P3 by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies for short-term papers and BBB by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies for long-term bonds/sukuk and by diversifying the portfolio. Interest Rate Risk This risk relates to unforeseen movements in the direction of interest rates. Anticipating interest rate movements is a critical element in determining the portfolio maturity structure of the Fund. The fund manager‟s top-down investment approach ensures that a thorough evaluation of macro-economic variables is undertaken before an interest rate strategy is implemented. In addition, it is also intended to have a sufficiently diverse range of maturities of fixed income instruments that the Fund invests in. The above interest rate is a general indicator that will have an impact on the management of the fund regardless whether it is a Shariah-compliant unit trust fund or otherwise. It does not in any way suggest that the fund will invest in conventional financial instruments. All the investments carried out for the fund are in accordance with Shariah requirements. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 38 Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is defined as the ease with which a security can be sold at or near its fair value depending on the volume traded on the market. Should a security become illiquid, it may be sold at a discount to its fair value, thus lowering that value of the Fund‟s investments and subsequently the value of Unit Holders‟ investments. To minimise liquidity risk, the Fund maintains sufficient level of liquid assets to meet anticipated payments and liquidation of units by Unit Holders. Inflation/Purchasing Power Risk Inflation reduces the purchasing power of money. In an inflationary environment, fixed income securities/sukuk are exposed to higher inflation risk than inflation-linked securities. By investing mainly in short-term issues, the interest rate structure of the portfolio can be adjusted quickly in response to any perceived significant change in the inflation rate. Derivatives Risk The Fund may enter into derivative instruments, which are financial contracts whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index. The derivative instruments may include futures, options, warrant and swaps and the underlying assets, rates and indices may include bonds/sukuk, stocks, interest rates, currency exchanges rates, and bond/sukuk, stock and commodity indices. These derivatives allow for the use of leverage which may increase the volatility in the NAV and the NAV per Unit of the Fund, if the market goes against the position of the derivatives. The Management Company may use derivatives such as options and futures for hedging existing positions, efficient portfolio management and/ or to meet the investment objectives of the Fund. There are various risks associated with derivatives use. The process by which the Management Company assesses, monitors and controls some of the more important types of risk such as market risk, liquidity risk and currency risk which have a direct influence on the Fund‟s NAV are mentioned in this section. The Manager will ensure that the exposure to derivative instruments will NOT at any time exceed 100% of the Fund‟s NAV at all times. The Fund‟s investments in derivatives (if any) shall always be subject to the restrictions stipulated under the sub-heading, investment spread limits; sub-paragraph of investment restriction on derivatives. The use of non-exchange traded or OTC derivatives involve counterparty risks arising from counterparty default or a decline in the latter‟s credit rating. The types of derivatives may be used by the Management Company will include those traded on an exchange such as Bursa Malaysia and those exchanges approved by the relevant regulatory authority. For Shariah-compliant Funds, such derivatives must comply with Shariah. Specific Risks in Money Market Funds: Financial Institution Risk Financial Institution risk occurs when a licensed financial institution which the Fund placed its deposits with, defaults on its obligations to pay back the deposits and interests/profits on demand. To mitigate financial institution risks, the Fund will diversify its placement of deposits with different financial institutions regulated by BNM. It is important to note that events affecting the investments cannot always be foreseen. Therefore, it is not always possible to protect investments against all risks. Different investment instruments generally exhibit different levels of risk. Please note that the returns of the Funds are not guaranteed. The investment of the Funds carries risk and investors are recommended to read the whole Master Prospectus to assess the risk of the Fund. Investors are reminded that the above list of risks may not be exhaustive and if necessary, they should consult their adviser(s), e.g. their bankers, lawyers, stockbrokers or independent financial advisers for a better understanding of the risks. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 39 6. DETAILED INFORMATION OF THE FUNDS Libra IncomeEXTRA Fund IncomeEXTRA Fund is an open-ended unit trust fund, investing in fixed income securities (including money market instruments) and equities. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The principal objective of the Fund is to provide income* and capital appreciation over a medium to long term investment horizon by investing in a balanced portfolio of fixed income instruments and equities. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. * Distribution of income will primarily be done by way of reinvestment into additional Units. Kindly refer to the distribution policy at page 119 of this Master Prospectus for full details. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The Fund will invest primarily in income-generating securities from both fixed income and equity asset classes. The Fund will be anchored by a relatively stable portfolio of fixed income securities which would be held for their regular income yield. Concurrently, the Fund will also invest in equities that offer high dividend yields. Growth will be the secondary objective of the Fund, which the Manager expects to derive from the gradual capital appreciation of the high-dividend yielding stocks, as well as from selected picks of fundamentally undervalued stocks. ASSET ALLOCATION The Fund will invest 40% to 60% in equities, 40% to 60% of the Fund will be invested in fixed income securities (including money market instruments and liquid assets). Liquid assets will be maintained at all times at a minimum of 2% of the Fund‟s NAV. RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES Please refer to pages 35-38 for detailed explanation of risk management strategies employed by the fund manager. TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS During adverse equity market conditions, the Fund may hold a significantly lower amount of equities than the prescribed minimum of 40% and invest instead in liquid and defensive assets (including fixed income securities with different maturity dates). PERFORMANCE BENCHMARK The composite benchmark consists of 50% MSCI AC Asia Pacific ex-Japan and 50% Maybank 12-months fixed deposit rate. (Source : www.bloomberg.com) The Fund has a flexible asset allocation between equities and fixed income securities with a bias for absolute returns. This means that the Fund is focused on achieving a positive return, even in a downtrend market rather than beating the benchmark. However, as require by the Guidelines, composite benchmark comprising indices for the two major assets classes (equity and fixed income securities) is used to provide investors with a reference point for their investments. Over the long-term, equity asset allocation would range between 40% – 60% of the Fund‟s NAV, and fixed income securities and cash would range between 40% – 60% of the Fund‟s NAV. Therefore, the composite benchmark is a reflection of the Fund‟s average asset allocation over the long-term of 50% of the Fund‟s NAV in equity and 50% of the Fund‟s NAV in fixed income securities and cash. By definition, absolute returns are the static measure of the actual return an asset achieves over a period of time. The Fund seeks to deliver positive returns independent of how the fixed income securities, cash and equity market perform. The fund manager focuses on achieving positive returns, even in a downtrend market, rather than beating the benchmark. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 40 PERMITTED INVESTMENTS Unless otherwise prohibited by the relevant authorities or any relevant law and provided always that there are no inconsistencies with the objective of the Fund, the Fund is permitted under the Deed to invest in the following: Securities traded on the Bursa Malaysia or any other market considered as an Eligible Market; Securities not listed in or traded under the rules of an Eligible Market (“Unlisted Securities”); Securities or instruments listed or traded on foreign markets where the regulatory authority is a member of the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO); Fixed income securities; Money market instruments; Collective Investment Schemes; Derivatives for hedging purposes only; Liquid assets; and Any other kind of investments as permitted by the relevant authorities from time to time.

Details of the policy on the application of the investment restrictions are set out on page 74. 41 Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 42 Libra EquityEXTRA Fund EquityEXTRA Fund is an open-ended unit trust fund with a medium to long-term investment horizon, which invests primarily in equity and equity-related securities. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The primary objective of the Fund is to maximize capital returns over a medium to long-term period by investing in an actively-managed, diversified portfolio of equity and equity-related securities. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The fund manager for EquityEXTRA shall generally adopt an active investment strategy which emphasises on appropriate asset allocation, for different market conditions to enhance risk-adjusted returns through riding market cycles, situational opportunities, value emergence and trend reversal plays and asset class rotation. The fund manager‟s strategy is to identify key sectors or groups of stocks that the fund manager believes should perform well under an anticipated economic condition. Individual stock selection will then focus on well-managed, financially sound companies with attractive relative valuations and potential for high earnings growth over the medium to long-term time frame. The analysis includes ratio analysis on the financial performance of companies, trend analysis to forecast future performance, and stock valuation methods. Occasionally, when market trading is skewed towards index-linked large capitalized stocks, the Fund will attempt to track the performance of the FBM100 by adjusting its portfolio composition accordingly.

Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 44 Libra BondEXTRA Fund BondEXTRA Fund is an open-ended unit trust fund, investing primarily in high yield, long term fixed income securities. Its key performance is entirely in search of consistent absolute returns over the long-term investment horizon. The Fund expects to maintain a weighted average portfolio maturity appropriate to its stated investment objective. Under normal circumstances, the weighted average term to maturity of investments is expected to be approximately 4 to 8 years. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The primary objective of the Fund is to provide investors with aggressive long-term capital growth through investment in high yielding fixed income securities with a relatively high level of market and financial risks. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. INVESTMENT STRATEGY Before constructing the portfolio of a particular fund, the fund manager will analyse the macro environment to enhance risk-adjusted returns by identifying market cycles, situational opportunities, value emergence, trend reversal plays and asset class rotation. With respect to fixed income instruments, the fund manager will focus on consistent, above-average returns from fundamental research rather than from frequent trading. Emphasis is placed on credit-worthiness, investment-grade issuers of debt. A disciplined application of the „top-down‟ investment process is therefore applied, with due consideration given to the credit standing of individual issuers. The fund manager will seek to diversify the investments of the Fund across sectors and individual securities in order to minimize the risk profile of the portfolio. ASSET ALLOCATION The Fund will invest a minimum of 70% of its NAV in fixed income instruments with a minimum credit rating of P3 or BBB3 by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies. Liquid assets will be maintained at all times at a minimum of 2% of the Fund‟s NAV.

TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS During adverse market conditions, or when the fund manager anticipates a downturn in market conditions, the Fund may hold significantly higher amount of liquid and defensive assets (including fixed income securities with different maturity dates) than that prescribed by their respective mandates. The fund manager would be expected to re-align the Fund with the principal strategies when market conditions turn for the better. PERFORMANCE BENCHMARK The benchmark of the Fund is the Maybank 12-months fixed deposit rate. (Source: Lipper) Investment in the Fund is not the same as placement in a deposit with a financial institution. The capital and returns of the Fund are not guaranteed and there are risks involved.

However, the limit does not apply to money market instruments that do not have a pre-determined issue size; and The Fund‟s investments in collective instruments schemes must not exceed 25% of the units/shares in any one collective investment scheme. Additionally, BondEXTRA will normally invest at least 50% of its NAV in any one or all of the following: o Fixed income securities with a minimum investment grade of P3 by RAM or MARC-3 by MARC for shortterm issues and BBB by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies for long term issues; o Securities issued by the Malaysian Government, BNM, banks or other licensed financial institutions; o Issues guaranteed by the Malaysian Government, BNM, banks or other licensed financial institutions; and o Deposits with banks or other licensed financial institutions. If a rated corporate issue is downgraded to below the minimum credit rating of local short-term rating of P3 by RAM or MARC-3 by MARC, or local long-term rating of BBB by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies, and it causes the investment limit to be breached, the fund manager would use their best efforts to dispose the holdings before maturity, failing which, it shall be held to maturity.

Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 49 Libra VersatileEXTRA Fund VersatileEXTRA Fund is an open-ended unit trust fund, investing in a blend of quoted securities, bonds and other money market instruments and financial derivatives (financial instruments that have no intrinsic value but derive their value from an underlying instrument such as interest rates, indices and share prices). The financial derivatives are used to manage one‟s exposure to unexpected price fluctuations in the equity and bond markets. Examples of financial derivatives are FBM100 futures, FBM100 options and Malaysian Government Securities futures. VersatileEXTRA will invest principally in a balanced portfolio consisting of equities, equity-related securities and fixed income securities. Its key performance is entirely in search of consistent absolute returns over the medium to long-term investment horizon. VersatileEXTRA is a Malaysian-focus Fund but for tactical call, the Fund may invest up to 30% of its NAV offshore. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The primary objective of the Fund is to provide investors medium to long-term capital appreciation through its investments in specified asset classes by adopting a relatively balanced approach towards equity and fixed income exposure. The Fund aims to achieve capital growth with lower and short-term volatility than is normally associated with a pure equity fund. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The fund manager for VersatileEXTRA shall generally adopt an active investment strategy which emphasizes on appropriate asset allocation, for different market conditions to enhance risk-adjusted returns through riding market cycles, situational opportunities, value emergence and trend reversal plays and asset class rotation. The fund manager‟s strategy is to identify key sectors or groups of stocks that the fund manager believes should perform well under an anticipated economic condition. Individual stock selection will then focus on well-managed, financially sound companies with attractive relative valuations and potential for high earnings growth over the medium to long-term time frame. The analysis includes ratio analysis on the financial performance of companies, trend analysis to forecast future performance and stock valuation methods. Occasionally, when market trading is skewed towards index-linked large capitalized stocks, the Fund will attempt to track the performance of the FBM100 by adjusting its portfolio composition accordingly. ASSET ALLOCATION The Fund will invest between 40% to 60% of its NAV in quoted equity and equity-related securities. The Fund will also invest between 40% to 60% of its NAV in fixed income securities with a minimum credit rating of P3 or BBB3 by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies and liquid assets. Liquid assets will be maintained at all times at a minimum of 2% of the Fund‟s NAV. RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES Please refer to pages 35-38 for detailed explanation of risk management strategies employed by the fund manager. TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS During adverse market conditions, or when the fund manager anticipates a downturn in market conditions, the Fund may hold significantly higher amount of liquid and defensive assets (including fixed income securities with different maturity dates) than that prescribed by their respective mandates. The fund manager would be expected to re-align the Fund with the principal strategies when market conditions turn for the better. PERFORMANCE BENCHMARK The benchmark of the Fund is a composite benchmark comprising 50% of the FBM100 and 50% of the Maybank 12-months fixed deposit rate. (Source: Lipper) The Fund has a flexible asset allocation between equities and fixed income securities with a bias for absolute (i.e. positive) returns. This means that the Fund is focused on achieving a positive return, even in a downtrend market rather than beating the benchmark. However, as required by the Guidelines, composite benchmark comprising indices for the two major assets classes (equity and fixed income) is used to provide investors with a reference point for their investments. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 50 Over the long-term, equity asset allocation would range between 40 – 60% of the Fund‟s NAV, and fixed income securities and cash would range between 40 – 60% of the Fund‟s NAV. Therefore, the composite benchmark is a reflection of the Fund‟s average asset allocation over the long-term of 50% of the Fund‟s NAV in equity and 50% of the Fund‟s NAV in fixed income and cash. By definition, absolute returns are the static measure of the actual return an asset achieves over a period of time. The Fund seeks to deliver positive returns independent of how the fixed income, cash and equity market perform. The fund manager focuses on achieving positive returns, even in a downtrend market, rather than beating the benchmark. PERMITTED INVESTMENTS Unless otherwise prohibited by the relevant authorities or any relevant law and provided always that there are no inconsistencies with the objective of the Fund, the Fund is permitted under the Deed to invest in the following: Securities of Malaysian companies listed on a recognised stock exchange; Securities listed on Foreign Stock Exchanges which have been permitted by the relevant authorities from time to time; Fixed income securities issued by the Malaysian government or BNM or any other government related bodies.

A maximum of 30% of the Fund‟s NAV will be invested in fixed income securities with a minimum credit rating of P3 or BBB3 by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies. Liquid assets will be maintained at all times at a minimum of 5% of the Fund‟s NAV. RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES Please refer to pages 35-38 for detailed explanation of risk management strategies employed by the fund manager. TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS During adverse market conditions, or when the fund manager anticipates a downturn in market conditions, the Fund may hold up to 100% in cash. The fund manager would be expected to re-align the Fund with the principal strategies when market conditions turn for the better. PERFORMANCE BENCHMARK The benchmark of the Fund is a composite benchmark comprising 50% of the FBM100 and 50% of the Maybank 12-months fixed deposit rate.

This means that the Fund is focused on achieving a positive return, even in a downtrend market rather than beating the benchmark. However, as required by the Guidelines, composite benchmark comprising indices for the two major asset classes (equity and fixed income) is used to provide investors with a reference point for their investments. Over the long-term, equity asset allocation would range between 30%-70% of the Fund‟s NAV and fixed income and cash would range between 30%-70% of the Fund‟s NAV.

Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 57 Libra Consumer and Leisure Asia Fund LCLAF is an open-ended regional unit trust fund, which seeks to offer investors a wider investment universe of quality growth stocks by investing primarily in those that offer exposure to the consumer and leisure sector in Asia. The Fund will be a proxy to the growth prospects of this burgeoning sector which is expected to be a major beneficiary of rising disposable income in the region. In turn, investors will earn potentially attractive returns. The Fund‟s key performance is to search for positive absolute returns over the medium to long-term (3-5 years) investment horizon. As one of the world‟s most dynamic economic zones, Asia is seeing a rapid expansion of its middle class population who, in turn, have increasingly more disposable income to spend. Sectors related to consumer consumption and leisure are expected to be major beneficiaries of this trend and the Fund will target investments in such sectors which would include gaming, hotels, airlines, retail outlets, restaurant chains, consumer electronics and other supporting industries. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The Fund seeks to provide capital appreciation over the medium to long-term by investing in a diversified portfolio comprising stocks of companies in Asia which are considered to have strong growth prospects and are able to benefit from the rising wealth effect of the region‟s middle class population. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The fund manager will look for the latest trends and themes reflective of the consumer and leisure focus of the Fund. This would involve analysis of diverse but relevant sectors and sub-sectors ranging from tourism, hotels, airlines, gaming, general retail, consumer electronics and premium real estate to the more economically inelastic brewing and tobacco sectors. This list is not exhaustive and the fund manager believes there are ample areas to invest in within this theme to enable adequate diversification for different market conditions. The Fund‟s investment universe will primarily comprise companies with a well-established track record, a strong business franchise, professionally run management and proven business models that give them a good competitive edge. Many of these companies will have products and services with brand names that are well known in the region, and in some cases, recognizable worldwide. The quality of these companies should be reflected in their financial track record, for example, a history of steady sales growth, firm profit margins, sustained profitability and prudent balance sheet management. The fund manager will use an appropriate investment valuation framework to invest in only those that the fund manager believes the stock price has yet to fully reflect the company‟s growth potential or underlying fair value. This framework will include techniques such as measuring a company‟s prospective price-to-earnings ratio, price-tobook ratio or enterprise value per unit against sector and regional peers, or a discounted cash flow valuation model. ASSET ALLOCATION Generally, the Fund will invest at least 70% of it‟s NAV in equity and equity-related securities, while maintaining a minimum of 50% in non-Malaysian equity (Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand markets). Liquid assets shall be maintained at a minimum of 2% of the Fund‟s NAV and fixed income securities within Malaysia shall be maintained at a minimum of 10% of the Fund‟s NAV. RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES Please refer to pages 35-38 for detalied explanation of risk management strategies employed by the fund manager. TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS In response to adverse economic or market conditions, or when the fund manager anticipates a severe downturn in the market, the Fund as part of its risk management strategy may increase its cash exposure or hold significantly high defensive assets, that include short-term fixed income securities. This would mean reducing the equity allocation to levels below 70%. The Fund may, when deemed appropriate, utilize futures contracts but only for hedging and risk reduction purposes. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 58 PERFORMANCE BENCHMARK The benchmark of the Fund is the MSCI AC Asia Consumer Discretionary Index. The Fund aims for absolute returns.

Sector allocation is derived after analyzing macroeconomic trends and country dynamics. The Manager believes that investment performance can be achieved by employing a rigorous research process that enables them to identify sound and profitable companies that generate excess return above the MSCI ACWI, being the benchmark‟s return as well as by identifying companies that are undervalued. An active investment strategy which emphasises on appropriate asset allocation, for different market conditions to enhance risk-adjusted returns through riding market cycles, situational opportunities, value emergence and trend reversal plays will be adopted. As of 27 November 2013, the countries within the MSCI ACWI consist of the following: Australia Austria Belgium Hong Kong Ireland Italy Canada Japan Denmark Netherlands Finland France Germany New Zealand Norway Portugal Greece Singapore Colombia Spain Sweden Switzerland the United Kingdom United States of America Brazil Chile China Czech Republic Egypt Hungary Peru Philippines Poland India Russia Indonesia South Africa Israel Korea Malaysia Taiwan Thailand Turkey Mexico Source :- www.msci.com This list of countries may be reviewed by MSCI from time to time.

Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 65 Libra SyariahEXTRA Fund SyariahEXTRA Fund is an open-ended unit trust fund investing in a blend of quoted Shariah-compliant equities, sukuk and other Islamic money market instruments and Shariah-compliant derivatives (financial instruments that have no intrinsic value, but derive their value from an underlying instrument such as indices and share prices. The Islamic financial derivatives are used to manage one‟s exposure to unexpected price fluctuations in the Shariahcompliant equity and sukuk markets), which have been approved by SACSC and/or the Shariah adviser. Its key performance is entirely in search of consistent absolute returns over the medium to long-term investment horizon. Background Information The Fund was initially named the Abrar Investment Fund. It was formally renamed as the SyariahEXTRA Fund with the registration of the Second Supplemental Deed with the Securities Commission Malaysia on 3 October 2002. It was first offered to the public on 12 March 1996 as an open-ended Shariah-compliant unit trust fund, seeking to provide investors with medium to long-term capital growth, and adequate level of regular income by investing in a diversified portfolio of Shariah-compliant equities and equity-related securities and sukuk. On 9 August 2002, pursuant to the removal of the previous management company, Maybank Trustees Berhad (formerly known as Mayban Trustees Berhad) appointed Libra Invest Berhad to act as the management company for Abrar Investment Fund and on 4 September 2002, the Unit Holders‟ approval was obtained in a Unit Holders‟ meeting to change the investment objective of the Fund. The first prospectus for SyariahEXTRA Fund under the management of Libra Invest Berhad was dated 6 November 2002. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The Fund aims to provide investors with medium to long-term capital appreciation through investments in specified asset classes by adopting a relatively balanced approach towards equities and fixed income exposure based on the Shariah principles. The Fund aims to achieve capital growth with lower short-term volatility than is normally associated with a pure equity fund. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. SHARIAH ADVISER The Shariah adviser for this Fund is IBFIM. Please refer to page 127 for details of their roles and responsibilities. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The fund manager for SyariahEXTRA shall generally adopt an active investment strategy which emphasises on appropriate asset allocation, for different market conditions to enhance risk-adjusted returns through riding market cycles, situational opportunities, value emergence and trend reversal plays; and asset class rotation. The fund manager‟s strategy is to identify key sectors or groups of Shariah-compliant stocks that the fund manager believes should perform well under an anticipated economic condition. Individual Shariah-compliant stock selection will then focus on well-managed, financially sound companies with attractive relative valuations and potential for high earnings growth over the medium to long-term time frame. The analysis includes ratio analysis on the financial performance of companies, trend analysis to forecast future performance, and stock valuation methods. Occasionally, when market trading is skewed towards index-linked large capitalized Shariah-compliant stocks, the Fund will attempt to track the performance of the FBM EMAS Shariah Index by adjusting its portfolio composition accordingly. ASSET ALLOCATION The Fund will invest between 40% to 60% of its NAV in quoted Shariah-compliant equities and equity-related securities. The Fund will also invest between 40% to 60% of its NAV in sukuk with a minimum credit rating of P3 or BBB3 by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies and Islamic liquid assets. Islamic liquid assets will be maintained at all times at a minimum of 2% of the Fund‟s NAV. RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES Please refer to pages 35-38 for detailed explanation of risk management strategies employed by the fund manager. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 66 TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS During adverse market conditions, or when the fund manager anticipates a downturn in market conditions, the Fund may hold significantly higher amount of Islamic liquid and defensive assets (including sukuk with different maturity dates) than that prescribed by their respective mandates. The fund manager would be expected to re-align the Fund with the principal strategies when market conditions turn for the better. PERFORMANCE BENCHMARK The benchmark of the Fund is a composite benchmark comprising 50% of the FBM EMAS Shariah Index and 50% of the Maybank 12-months GIA-i rate. (Source: Lipper) The Fund has a flexible asset allocation between Shariah-compliant equities and sukuk with a bias for absolute (i.e. positive) returns. This means that the Fund is focused on achieving a positive return, even in a downtrend market rather than beating the benchmark. However, as required by the Guidelines, composite benchmark indices for the two major asset classes (Shariah-compliant equity and sukuk) is used to provide investors with a reference point for their investments. Over the long-term, Shariah-compliant equity asset allocation would range between 40% – 60% of the Fund‟s NAV, and sukuk and cash would range between 40% – 60% of the Fund‟s NAV. Therefore, the composite benchmark is a reflection of the Fund‟s average asset allocation over the long-term of 50% of the Fund‟s NAV in Shariah-compliant equity and 50% of the Fund‟s NAV in sukuk and cash. By definition, absolute returns are the static measure of the actual return an asset achieves over a period of time. The Fund seeks to deliver positive returns independent of how the sukuk, cash and Shariah-compliant equity market perform. The fund manager focuses on achieving positive returns, even in a downtrend market, rather than beating the benchmark. PERMITTED INVESTMENTS Unless otherwise prohibited by the relevant authorities or any relevant law and provided always that there are no inconsistencies with the objective of the Fund, the Fund is permitted under the Deed to invest in the following: Shariah-compliant securities of Malaysian companies listed on the recognised stock exchange; Units of unrelated Shariah-compliant property trust funds listed on Bursa Malaysia; Unlisted Shariah-compliant securities that are not traded in or under the rules of an eligible market; Government and semi-government sukuk, investment accounts, and Islamic money market instruments; Cagamas Mudharabah Bonds, sukuk which are either bank-guaranteed or carrying at least a BBB3 rating by RAM or equivalent rating by other rating agencies; Government Investment Issues, Islamic accepted bills, Malaysian currency balances in hand and Islamic deposits (Malaysian currency) with licensed financial institutions; Islamic futures contracts traded on an exchange approved for hedging purposes only; In conformity with Shariah requirements the securities of companies engages in the following activities or producing the following categories of products shall not be included in the Fund- conventional banking, insurance and financial services; gambling; alcohol beverages; non-halal foods; interest bearing money market instruments; and any further restrictions as may be determined by the relevant authorities;and Any other kind of Shariah-compliant investment or Shariah-compliant investments as permitted by the relevant authorities from time to time.

In May 2003, pursuant to the removal of the previous management company, Libra Invest Berhad was appointed by Mayban Trustees Berhad to act as the management company for ASnita. The first prospectus for ASnita under the management of LIB was dated 1 July 2004. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The primary objective of the Fund is to offer relatively good and safe capital growth over the long-term period by investing principally in an actively-managed, diversified portfolio of Shariah-compliant equities and equity-related securities. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. SHARIAH ADVISER The Shariah adviser for this Fund is IBFIM. Please refer to page 127 for details of their roles and responsibilities. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The fund manager for ASnita shall generally adopt an active investment strategy which emphasises on appropriate asset allocation, for different market conditions to enhance risk-adjusted returns through riding market cycles, situational opportunities, value emergence and trend reversal plays and asset class rotation. The fund manager‟s strategy is to identify key sectors or groups of Shariah-compliant stocks that the fund manager believes should perform well under an anticipated economic condition. Individual Shariah-compliant stock selection will then focus on well-managed, financially sound companies with attractive relative valuations and potential for high earnings growth over the medium to long-term time frame. The analysis includes ratio analysis on the financial performance of companies, trend analysis to forecast future performance, and stock valuation methods. Occasionally, when market trading is skewed towards index-linked large capitalized Shariah-compliant stocks, the Fund will attempt to track the performance of the FBM EMAS Shariah Index by adjusting its portfolio composition accordingly. ASSET ALLOCATION The Fund will invest a minimum of 70% of its NAV in quoted Shariah-compliant equities and equity-related securities. Islamic liquid assets will be maintained at all times at a minimum of 2% of the Fund‟s NAV. RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES Please refer to pages 35-38 for detailed explanation of risk management strategies employed by the fund manager. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 69 TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS During adverse market conditions, or when the fund manager anticipates a downturn in market conditions, the Fund may hold significantly higher amount of Islamic liquid and defensive assets (including sukuk with different maturity dates) than that prescribed by their respective mandates. The fund manager would be expected to re-align the Fund with the principal strategies when market conditions turn for the better.

Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 71 Libra ASnitaBOND Fund ASnitaBOND Fund is an open-ended unit trust fund, investing principally in a portfolio comprising highly liquid, near cash instruments as well as short to medium-term sukuk. The Fund expects to maintain a weighted average portfolio maturity appropriate to its stated investment objectives. Under normal circumstances, the weighted average term to maturity of the investments is expected to be approximately 2 to 5 years. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The Fund aims to provide capital preservation with regular income over the short to medium-term period by investing in Islamic money market instruments and other Shariah-approved fixed income securities. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require Unit Holders‟ approval. SHARIAH ADVISER The Shariah adviser for this Fund is IBFIM. Please refer to page 127 for details of their roles and responsibilities. INVESTMENT STRATEGY Before constructing the portfolio of a particular fund, the fund manager will analyse the macro environment to enhance risk-adjusted returns by identifying market cycles, situational opportunities, value emergence, trend reversal plays and asset class rotation. The Fund will adopt an investment strategy which will provide returns comparable to that of short-term Islamic money market deposits, and which will at the same time, preserve the Fund‟s principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity. With respect to sukuk, the fund manager will focus on consistent, above-average returns from fundamental research rather than from frequent trading. Emphasis is placed on credit-worthiness, investment-grade issuers of sukuk. A disciplined application of the top-down investment process is therefore applied, with due consideration given to the credit standing of individual issuers. The fund manager will seek to diversify the investments of the Fund across sectors and individual sukuk in order to minimise the risk profile of the portfolio. ASSET ALLOCATION The Fund will invest a minimum of 70% of its NAV in sukuk. Cash, Islamic deposits and other Islamic liquid assets will be maintained at all times at a minimum of 2% of the Fund‟s NAV. RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES Please refer to pages 35-38 for detailed explanation of risk management strategies employed by the fund manager.

The fund manager would be expected to re-align the Fund with the principal strategies when market conditions turn for the better. PERFORMANCE BENCHMARK The benchmark of the Fund is the Maybank 6-months GIA-i Tier I rate.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN RELATION TO THE FUNDS Policy on Application of Investment Restrictions of the Funds IncomeEXTRA, EquityEXTRA, BondEXTRA, MoneyEXTRA, VersatileEXTRA, TacticalEXTRA, LCLAF, LLF, LREF, SyariahEXTRA, ASnita and ASnitaBOND. DividendEXTRA, Any entitlement accruing on the investment held may be excluded when determining compliance with the investment restrictions. However, the entitlement should not be exercised if the exercise results in the breach of any restrictions specified. Nevertheless, the right of convertibility may be exercised even if it results in the breach of the restrictions, provided there are justifiable reasons and prior approval of the Trustee has been obtained, and the Management Company takes all necessary steps and actions to rectify the breach within a reasonable time of not more than one (1) month from the date of the breach. A 5% allowance in excess of any limit or restriction may be permitted, where the breach occurred through an appreciation or depreciation of the NAV of the Fund, whether as a result of an appreciation or depreciation in the value of the investments, or as a result of repurchase of units or payment made by the Fund. The Management Company should not make any further acquisitions and will take necessary steps and actions to rectify the breach within a reasonable period of not more than three (3) months from the date of the breach. Such limits and restrictions, however, do not apply to securities that are issued or guaranteed by the government of Malaysia or BNM. As the minimum liquid assets level for the Fund is specified to ensure sufficient short-term liquidity in the Fund to meet operating expenses and possible redemption of the Fund‟s units, where the level of liquid assets for the Fund drop below the minimum level specified, the Management Company will take all necessary steps and actions to meet the minimum level specified within ten (10) calendar days.

Liquid assets of the Fund may be held in the form of cash, net creation/cancellation, net amount receivable/(payable) from the brokers/dealers, deposits with licensed institutions and/or other institutions licensed or approved to accept deposits and any other instruments, including short-term commercial papers, which are convertible into cash within seven (7) days as may be approved by the Trustee. Liquid assets of SyariahEXTRA, ASnita and ASnitaBOND must comply with Shariah requirements. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 75 Valuation of Assets The Management Company will ensure that all the assets of the respective Funds are valued at fair value and at all times be in compliance with Schedule B of the Guidelines. Quoted securities and suspended securities Investments in quoted securities will be valued based on the last done prices as at the close of the Business Day of the respective markets on the same calendar day. In the event of a suspension in the quotation of the securities for a period exceeding 14 days, or such shorter period as agreed by the Trustee, or when the market price is not reflective of the fair value of the securities due to abnormal market situation, then the securities should be valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Management Company based on methods or bases approved by the Trustee after appropriate technical consultation. Unquoted fixed income securities/sukuk Unquoted fixed income securities/sukuk are measured at fair values. The fair values of unquoted fixed income securities/sukuk are generally obtained from the indicative market yields quoted by a bond pricing agency registered with the SC. However, where the fund manager is of the opinion that the value of the fixed income securities/sukuk differs from the indicative yields quoted by the bond pricing agency by more than 20 basis points, the fund manager will value the securities based on a pricing model that reflects the prevailing market conditions provided it complies with the requirement in the Guidelines. Quoted securities dividends Dividends from quoted securities are recognised on the ex-dividend date. Derivatives Derivative instruments are marked-to-market on a daily basis. Any changes in the value of the contracts are adjusted for directly in the margin accounts, with a corresponding recognition in the unrealized reserves. Collective investment schemes Investments in collective investment schemes will be valued, based on the last published NAV per Unit or if unavailable, other appropriate method as determined by the Management Company and approved by the Trustee. Deposits Valuation for investment in deposits is based on a fixed rate with interest/profit accrued on a daily basis. Structured products The valuation of structured products is marked-to-market on a daily basis using valuation prices quoted by the structured products provider. Money market instruments Valuation of money market instruments shall be done on a daily basis using accretion method of the discount rate or yield to maturity at which the instruments were purchased. Valuation Point for the Funds The valuation of NAV of Funds with no foreign investments is calculated at the end of each Business Day. In the case of Funds with investments in foreign markets, the valuation time may be extended to 10.00 a.m. local time of the next Business Day (T+1 day) due to the different time zones of foreign markets. Consequently, the daily NAV of Funds with foreign investments may be published two (2) Business Days later instead of the next Business Day. The foreign exchange rate used for valuation of foreign investment is based on bid rate obtained from Reuters or Bloomberg at U.K. time 4.00 p.m. the same day. Unit Holders may contact the Management Company or visit our website at www.librainvest.com to obtain the latest NAV of the Funds. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 76 8. SHARIAH INVESTMENT GUIDELINES Shariah Investment Guidelines adopted by IBFIM, Cleansing Process and Zakat for the Fund 1. Shariah Investment Guidelines The following matters are adopted by IBFIM in determining the Shariah status of investments of the Fund. INVESTMENT IN MALAYSIA Equity: Reference for investment in local securities is based on the list of Shariah-compliant securities issued by the SACSC twice yearly on the last Friday of May and November which is readily available at the SC‟s website. However, for Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) companies that have yet to be determined the Shariah status by the SACSC, IBFIM adopts the following analysis as a temporary measure in determining its Shariah status until the SACSC releases the Shariah status of the respective companies. Core Business Activities Analysis Companies whose activities are not contrary to the Shariah will be classified as Shariah-compliant securities. On the other hand, companies will be classified as Shariah non-compliant if they are involved in the following core business activities: a) Conventional financial services; b) Gambling and gaming; c) Manufacture or sale of non-halal products or related products (e.g. pork and liquor); d) Manufacture or sale of tobacco-based products or related products; e) Pornography; f) Weaponry; g) Entertainment activities that are not permitted by the Shariah; and h) Other activities considered non-permissible according to the Shariah. Mixed Business Activities Analysis For companies with activities comprising both permissible and non-permissible elements, IBFIM applies two analyses before they can be classified as Shariah-compliant. The analyses are as follows: i) Qualitative Analysis In this analysis, IBFIM will look into aspects of general public perception of the companies‟ images, core businesses which are considered important and maslahah (beneficial) to the Muslim ummah and the country, the non-permissible elements are very small and involve matters like umum balwa (common plight and difficult to avoid), ‘uruf (custom) and rights of the non-Muslim community which are accepted by the Shariah. ii) Quantitative Analysis Companies which passed the above qualitative analysis will be further subjected to quantitative analysis. IBFIM deduces the following to ensure that they are lower than the Shariah tolerable benchmarks: a) Business Activity Benchmarks The 5% benchmark would be applicable to the following business activities: Conventional banking; Conventional insurance; Gambling; Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 77 Liquor and liquor-related activities; Pork and pork-related activities; Non-halal food and beverages; Shariah non-compliant entertainment; Interest income from conventional accounts and instruments; Tobacco and tobacco-related activities; and Other activities considered non-compliant according to Shariah. The 20% benchmark would be applicable to the following activities: Hotel and resort operations; Share trading; Stockbroking business; Rental received from Shariah non-compliant activities; and Other activities considered non-compliant according to Shariah. The contribution of Shariah non-compliant activities to the overall revenue/sales/turnover/income and profit before tax of the companies will be calculated and compared against the relevant business activity benchmarks. b) Financial Ratio Benchmarks The financial ratios applied are as follows: Cash over Total Assets Cash will only include cash placed in conventional accounts and instruments, whereas cash placed in Islamic accounts and instruments will be excluded from the calculation. Debt over Total Assets Debt will only include interest-bearing debt whereas Islamic debt/financing or sukuk will be excluded from the calculation. Both ratios, which are intended to measure riba and riba-based elements within a companies‟ balance sheet, must be lower than 33%. Should any of the above deductions fail to meet the benchmarks, IBFIM will not accord Shariah-compliant status for the companies. Sukuk and Islamic Money Market Instruments: IBFIM will review any sukuk and/or Islamic money market instruments based on the data available at Bond Info Hub (www.bondinfo.bnm.gov.my) and Fully Automated System For Issuing/Tendering (https://fast.bnm.gov.my). Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 78 INVESTMENT IN FOREIGN MARKETS Equity: Core Business Activities Analysis Companies whose activities are not contrary to the Shariah will be classified as Shariah-compliant securities. On the other hand, companies will be classified as Shariah non-compliant if they are involved in the following core business activities: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) h) Conventional financial services; Gambling and gaming; Manufacture or sale of non-halal products or related products (e.g. pork and liquor); Manufacture or sale of tobacco-based products or related products; Pornography; Weaponry; Entertainment activities that are not permitted by the Shariah; and Other activities considered non-permissible according to the Shariah. Mixed Business Activities Analysis For companies with activities comprising both permissible and non-permissible elements, IBFIM applies two analyses before they can be classified as Shariah-compliant. The analyses are as follows: i) Qualitative Analysis In this analysis, IBFIM will look into aspects of general public perception of the companies‟ images, core businesses which are considered important and maslahah (beneficial) to the Muslim ummah and the country, the non-permissible elements are very small and involve matters like umum balwa (common plight and difficult to avoid), ‘uruf (custom) and rights of the non-Muslim community which are accepted by the Shariah. ii) Quantitative Analysis Companies which passed the above qualitative analysis will be further subjected to quantitative analysis. IBFIM deduces the following to ensure that they are lower than the Shariah tolerable benchmarks: Contribution of interest income to the total income is lower than 5% of the total income; Total debt of the companies (including all interest-bearing loans/debentures and their respective payables such as short term/long term debts, short term/long term debentures and all debentures payables) is lower than 30% of the total assets of the companies; Total sum of companies‟ cash and receivables is lower than 70% of its total assets; and Income generated from other prohibited components from Shariah perspective is lower than 5% of the companies‟ total income. Should any of the above deductions fail to meet the benchmarks, IBFIM will not accord Shariah-compliant status for the companies. Foreign sukuk: IBFIM will review the information memoranda or prospectuses of the sukuk, its structures, utilisation of proceeds, Shariah contracts, Shariah pronouncements, etc. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 2. 79 Cleansing Process for the Fund a) Wrong Investment This refers to Shariah non-compliant investment made by the fund manager. The said investment will be disposed of/withdrawn with immediate effect. In the event of the investment resulted in gain (through capital gain and/or dividend/profit), the gain is to be channelled to Baitulmal or any other charitable bodies as advised by the Shariah Adviser. If the disposal of the investment resulted in losses to the Fund, the losses are to be borne by the Fund Manager. b) Reclassification of Shariah Status of the Fund’s Investment Reclassification of Shariah status refers to security which is reclassified as Shariah non-compliant by the SACSC, the Shariah Adviser or the Shariah Boards of the relevant Islamic Indices. The said security will be disposed soonest practical, once the total amount of dividends is received and the market value held equals the original investment costs. Any capital gains arising from the disposal of the Shariah non-compliant security made at the time of the announcement can be kept by the Fund. However, any excess capital gains derived from the disposal after the announcement day at a market price that is higher than the closing price on the announcement day is to be channelled to Baitulmal or any charitable bodies as advised by the Shariah Adviser. 3. Zakat (tithe) for the Fund The Fund does not pay zakat on behalf of Muslim individuals and Islamic legal entities who are investors of the Fund. Thus, investors are advised to pay zakat on their own.

Although the fund did not meet its objective of achieving positive return in 2013, it has provided steady positive return since 2011 and is expected to do so in 2014.

The Fund lost out slightly to the FBM100 benchmark in December (+2.3%) due to heavy window dressing activities in PETRONAS related names. We decided to take a more cautious stance and reduced equity weighting to around 75% given uncertainty over China growth and the impact of on-going US QE3 tapering. The 9.4% outperformance against the benchmark was a testament of our investment process to seek out companies with good fundamentals and more importantly at the right price.

Moving forward, the Fund will continue to give strong emphasis on bond issuers‟ credit strength focusing on cash flow consistency, stringent structure and experienced management teams. The Fund invested in higher yielding fixed income securities in order to provide aggressive long term capital growth. The Fund is expected to continue to benefit from capital appreciation of its bond portfolio, interest income from the coupon attached to the debt instruments and the positively sloped yield curve that commensurate with its duration and risk profile. * The average total returns of the above Fund for the respective financial years are calculated based on NAV to NAV.

The Fund derived its return from a selection of sukuk, Islamic money market instruments and Islamic deposit placements. The Fund will continue to give strong emphasis on sukuk issuers‟ credit strength focusing on cash flow consistency, stringent structure and experienced management teams. Careful selection of sukuk and Islamic money market instruments are carried out to allow the Fund to benefit from higher profit returns that commensurate with its risk profile.

Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 114 12. TRANSACTION INFORMATION Pricing Computation of NAV The NAV of the Fund is calculated at the end of each Business Day and is defined as the total value of the Fund‟s investment less any liabilities at that valuation point. Where applicable, investment income, interest payable, fees and other liabilities (including management fee) will be accrued daily in arriving at the NAV of the Fund. NAV per Unit = NAV of the Fund / Number of Units in circulation Illustration (based on TacticalEXTRA) NAV before deducting management fee and trustee fee for the day RM 20,000,000.00 Less: Management fee for the day (1.50% per annum) 20,000,000 x 1.50% / 365 RM 821.92 Less: Trustee fee for the day (0.07% per annum) 20,000,000 x 0.07% / 365 NAV (a) Units in circulation (b) RM 38.36 RM 19,999,139.72 40,000,000.00 NAV per Unit (a) / (b) RM 0.499978493 NAV per Unit (rounded up to four decimal places) RM 0.5000 Pricing Policy Single Pricing Selling of Units by the Management Company (i.e. when you purchase Units) and repurchase of Units by the Management Company (i.e. when you liquidate your Units) will be carried out at NAV per Unit (the actual value of a Unit). The sales charge or repurchase charge (if any) would be computed separately based on your investment or liquidation amount. Forward Pricing The single price for investment or liquidation of Units shall be the daily NAV per Unit at the next valuation point after the Management Company receives the investment or liquidation application (i.e. forward prices are used). Incorrect Pricing Policy Incorrect pricing refers to pricing discrepancies in the calculation of NAV of the Fund. Should there be any incorrect pricing, the Management Company will take immediate remedial action to rectify any incorrect pricing at the Fund level. The Management Company‟s remedial action must extend to the reimbursement of money if the error is at or above the threshold of 0.5% of the NAV per Unit, unless the total impact on an individual account is less than RM10.00 in absolute amount, of which no reimbursement of money is required as the reprocessing costs may be greater than the amount of the adjustment. The Management Company is nevertheless allowed to pay any amount to the Unit Holders or former Unit Holders even though it is less than 0.5% of the NAV per Unit or RM10.00. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 115 How Is the Selling Price Computed Investors may invest in Units of the Fund on any Business Day. The number of Units invested is determined by dividing the investment amount (excluding sales charge) with the NAV per Unit at the next valuation point after the Management Company receives the investment application, rounded to the nearest two decimal places. Illustration : Determining Investment Amount & Units Entitlement Add : Investment amount RM 10,000.00 Sales charge (5.00%) RM 500.00 Total amount payable by investor RM 10,500.00 Investment amount RM 10,000.00 NAV per Unit RM 0.5000 The following day, the price of a Unit i.e., the NAV per Unit, will be published in the Manager‟s website. For example, if the NAV per Unit was RM0.5000 the number of Units invested would be: Divide : Number of Units invested 20,000.00 How Is the Liquidation Amount Computed Investors may liquidate their investment on any Business Day. The liquidation amount is calculated by multiplying the NAV per Unit at the next valuation point after the Management Company receives the liquidation application, with the number of units held. Illustration : Determining Liquidation Amount Number of Units to be liquidated Multiply : Less : 10,000.00 For example, if the NAV per Unit calculated at the next valuation point was RM0.5050, the liquidation amount would be: NAV per Unit RM 0.5050 Liquidation amount RM 5,050.00 Repurchase charge (Nil) Net amount payable to investor NIL RM 5,050.00 The selling and repurchase prices including the NAV per Unit of the Funds are available at our website at www.librainvest.com. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus Switching of units through Entitlement oneINVEST / oneINVEST 116 Islamic – Determining Investment Amount and Units Investors investing through oneINVEST / oneINVEST Islamic may exercise unlimited free switches between equity Funds and non-equity Funds on any Business Day within the calendar year. Example : Switching from ASnitaBOND to EquityEXTRA Step 1 : To determine the switching amount of ASnitaBOND The switching amount is determined by multiplying the NAV per Unit of ASnitaBOND at the end of the Business Day with the number of units to be switched. Step 2 : To determine the number of units in EquityEXTRA The number of units is calculated by dividing the switching amount with the NAV per Unit of EquityEXTRA at the end of the Business Day and rounded to the nearest two decimal places. Illustration : Determining the Switching Amount Assuming an investor wishes to switch 20,000 units in ASnitaBOND to EquityEXTRA: Units in ASnitaBOND to be switched out Multiply: Divide: 20,000.00 NAV per Unit of ASnitaBOND RM 0.5862 Switching amount RM 11,724.00 NAV per Unit of EquityEXTRA RM 0.5233 AsnitaBOND EquityEXTRA Number of units in EquityEXTRA 22,403.98 Therefore: Units before switch Units switch (out) / in Units after switch 20,000.00 0.00 (20,000.00) 22,403.98 0.00 22,403.98 Transaction Details Who Can Invest Local and foreign individuals, investing in single or joint names (joint-holders).

The other defendants in the ABBA Suit include among others the Facility Agent, PASB‟s Chief Executive Officer, one of PASB‟s directors and associate companies of the Chief Executive Officer and the said director.

The appeals proceeded on 22, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29 and 30 September 2011 and 3 October 2011. The Court of Appeal had on 8 November 2011 awarded the Trustee and the Facility Agent a limited indemnity against PASB, PASB‟s Chief Executive Officer, one of PASB‟s directors and associate companies of the Chief Executive Officer and the said director but found the Trustee and the Facility Agent equally liable to the bondholders. The Federal Court had on 5 April 2012 granted the Trustee leave to appeal to the Federal Court against certain parts of the decision of the Court of Appeal [Federal Court Appeal]. The Federal Court Appeal was heard on 6, 7, 8, 20, 21 and 23 November 2012 and on 2, 3 and 4 January 2013. The hearing dates of 17 to 19 October 2012 and 19 November 2012 were vacated.

In any event, any successful claim that may be established against the Trustee will be covered by the Trustee‟s insurer and/or Malayan Banking Berhad as the ultimate holding company of the Trustee.

The taxation of income for both the Funds and the Unit Holders are subject to the provisions of the Malaysian Income Tax Act 1967 (“the Act”). The applicable provisions are contained in Section 61 of the Act, which deals specifically with the taxation of trust bodies in Malaysia. TAXATION OF THE FUNDS The Funds will be regarded as resident for Malaysian tax purposes since the trustees of the Funds are resident in Malaysia. (1) Domestic Investments (i) General Taxation Subject to certain exemptions, the income of the Funds consisting of dividends, interest or profit 1 (other than interest and profit1 which is exempt from tax) and other investment income derived from or accruing in Malaysia, after deducting tax allowable expenses, is liable to Malaysian income tax at the rate of 25 per cent. Gains on disposal of investments in Malaysia by the Funds will not be subject to income tax. (ii) Dividends and Other Exempt Income Effective 1 January 2014, all companies would adopt the single-tier system. Hence dividends received would be exempted from tax and the deductibility of expenses incurred against such dividend income would be disregarded. There will no longer be any tax refunds available for single-tier dividends received. Dividends received from companies under the single-tier system would be exempted. The Funds may receive Malaysian dividends which are tax exempt. The exempt dividends may be received from investments in companies which had previously enjoyed or are currently enjoying the various tax incentives provided under the law.

Such income from foreign investments may be subject to foreign taxes or withholding taxes. Any foreign tax suffered on the income in respect of overseas investment is not tax refundable to the Funds. The foreign income exempted from Malaysian tax at the Funds‟ level will also be exempted from tax upon distribution to the Unit Holders. (3) Tax Deductible Expenses Expenses wholly and exclusively incurred in the production of gross income are allowable as deductions under Section 33(1) of the Act. In addition, Section 63B of the Act provides for tax deduction in respect of managers‟ remuneration, expenses on maintenance of the register of Unit Holders, share registration expenses, secretarial, audit and accounting fees, telephone charges, printing and stationery costs and postages.

The income distribution from the Funds will carry a tax credit in respect of the tax paid by the Funds. Unit Holders will be entitled to utilise the tax credit against the tax payable on the income distribution received by them. No additional withholding tax will be imposed on the income distribution from the Funds. 6 Corporate Unit Holders, resident5 and non-resident, will generally be liable to income tax at 25 per cent on distribution of income received from the Funds.

Individuals and other non-corporate Unit Holders who are tax resident in Malaysia will be subject to income tax at graduated rates ranging from 1 per cent to 267 per cent. Individuals and other non-corporate Unit Holders who are not resident in Malaysia will be subject to income tax at 268 per cent. The tax credits attributable to the distribution of income can be utilised against the tax liabilities of these Unit Holders. Non-resident Unit Holders may also be subject to tax in their respective jurisdictions and depending on the provisions of the relevant tax legislation and any double tax treaty with Malaysia, the Malaysian tax suffered may be creditable against any foreign tax. Libra Invest Berhad Master Prospectus 149 The distribution of exempt income and gains arising from the disposal of investments by the Funds will be exempted from tax in the hands of the Unit holders. Any gains realised by Unit Holders (other than dealers in securities, insurance companies or financial institutions) on the sale or redemption of the units are treated as capital gains and will not be subject to income tax. This tax treatment will include gains in the form of cash or residual distribution in the event of the winding up of the Funds.

You should assess if loan financing is suitable for you in light of your objectives, attitude to risk and financial circumstances. You should be aware of the risks, which would include the following: 1. The higher the margin of financing (that is, the amount of money you borrow for every ringgit of your own money that you put in as deposit or down payment) the greater the potential for losses as well as gains. 2. You should assess whether you have the ability to service the repayments on the proposed loan. If your loan is a variable rate loan, and if interest rates rise, your total repayment amount will be increased. 3. If unit prices fall beyond a certain level, you may be asked to provide additional acceptable collateral or pay additional amounts on top of your normal installments. If you fail to comply within the time prescribed, your units may be sold to settle your loan. 4. Returns on unit trusts are not guaranteed and may not be earned evenly over time. This means that there may be some years where returns are high and other years where losses are experienced. Whether you eventually realise a gain or loss may be affected by the timing of the sale of your units. The value of units may fall just when you want your money back even though the investment may have done well in the past. This brief statement cannot disclose all the risks and other aspects of loan financing. You should therefore carefully study the terms and conditions before you decide to take the loan. If you are in doubt in respect of any aspect of this risk disclosure statement or the terms of the loan financing, you should consult the institution offering the loan. Shariah-compliance unit trust fund‟s investor is advised to seek for Islamic financing to finance their acquisition. TERMS AND CONDITIONS 1.

Liquidation of Units and Cooling-Off Holders may liquidate their units by filling up the Liquidation Form and forwarding the duly signed original form to the business address of the Management Company or its appointed distributors. Units shall be liquidated based on the NAV calculated at the end of the business day upon receipt of a duly completed Liquidation Form by the Management Company. To protect the interests of the Holders, the Management Company is unable to make payments to third parties. Unless otherwise specified, all payments will be made to the Principal Holder only. Liquidation proceeds may be credited directly to the Holder‟s Maybank account. If other modes of payment are selected, kindly allow sufficient time for the cheques to reach the Holders and/or for the funds to clear. A Cooling-Off period of 6 business days from the date of application for units is provided for the Holder to confirm the initial investment.
