Page3 Supporting Drivers For Commodities 01

Page4 Big picture supportive for commodity equities Developed Emerging Growth Low, improvingHigh, stable / decelerating? Interest rates Low, to edge upRising Inflation Low, rising (energy) High, rising (soft commodities) A favourable environment for commodities Growth: More homogenous Improving macroeconomic data in the West; reconstruction in MENA and Japan: => commodity demand likely to be less dependant on Asian and Latam emerging countries Rates: expected to edge up Developed countries about to start a cycle of rising rates, but no sharp upturn anticipated Interest rate hikes to continue in emerging markets in an attempt to curb inflation, but close to the end Inflation: commodity-driven. A rising pressure for all countries As commodity inflation will result more and more from supply issues than from growth, monetary policies could be less efficient to stop rising prices. Commodity inflation: should drive more investments into hard assets

Page5 Our view on the super cycle The next decade: –Global demand will continue to be strong for commodities, still supported mainly by urbanization and industrialization in Emerging countries –Demand response to higher prices will be slow: a long, difficult and costly process –Main drivers for commodity prices will come increasingly from supply constraints Supply constraints + Inflation: another leg of the Super Cycle ahead Demand from developed countries matched with full supply availability 10 years of booming commodity demand from Emerging countries; Supply constraints on a rising trend Source: Reuters

Page6 Our general view on Commodities markets Commodity prices are expected to remain very firm as supply constraints increase market imbalance for most commodities. The last series of companies reports have shown very poor figures on production volumes. High prices driven by supply constraints, likely to limit the impact of rising interest rates Consensus is revising upwards estimates for 2011 Global demand for commodities Global demand from China Supply constraints over time Supply constraints becoming the supporting factor for prices

Page8 Commodity Outlook 02

Page9 Energy: Short term supply risks Unrest in several countries puts short term supply at risk For the moment, only part of the Libyan production is disrupted OPEC spare capacity represents 6% of world production (5.2mmbbls/day), of which 70% is in Saudi Arabia Countries most at risk represent 74% of the spare capacity which explains the nervousness on the oil price Oil prices will factor in a higher political risk premium in the future Oil price spikes how much should be political premiums?

Page10 Energy: Long term supply constraints Source: UN, McKinsey Depletion of existing fields: 5% per year = 4mmbbls/day = 1 Iran per year Geopolitical risk: New fields in more challenging areas = higher finding & development costs OPEC market power to increase: 40% of oil production and 77% of reserves Operating risk: Impact of Macondo oil spill on resource access and costs Easing of Supply constraints to come from the rapid development in Iraq and Brazil Supply constraints will put a floor on price levels Reserve replacementProduction costs ($/b) Production increasing more rapidly than discoveries

Page22 Commodity Expertise 04

Page23 Commodity equities: the obvious winners of higher prices High cash flows to continue Producers to reduce further debt levels and turn net cash positive Cash flow generation quicker than capital expenditure Cash Flows Cash surplus to be returned to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks More return than with physical commodities High returns M&A 2010 a record year for M&A. For example in mining with over $134bn M&A strong start in 2011 Favorable factors for equity shareholders

Page24 Return of M&A activities – most recent deals M&A the only option for quick production growth In the portfolio

Page25 Source : Datastream Equities outperform physical commodities in the long run

Page26 The fund does not invest directly in commodities, but through equities only. Rather than adding to price pressure and speculation We hold a long term-approach, as our goal is to identify throughout the entire value chain the sectors and companies that will most benefit from supply/demand imbalance and best deliver on their growth potential through a strong and sustainable development. The minimum recommended investment horizon is 5 years. Investment Philosophy
