IMPORTANT INFORMATION You should consider your own risk tolerance level and financial circumstances before making any investment choices. When, in your selection of funds, you are in doubt as to

whether a certain fund is suitable for you (including whether it is consistent with your investment objectives), you should seek financial and/or professional advice and choose the fund(s) most suitable for you taking into account your circumstances.

In the event that you do not make any investment choices, please be reminded that your contributions made and/or benefits transferred into BOC-Prudential Easy-Choice Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme will be invested into BOC-Prudential Stable Fund in accordance with the default fund arrangement as stated in member enrolment form and principal brochure section 4.4, and such fund may not necessarily be suitable for you.

Fees and charges of a MPF conservative fund can be deducted from either (i) the assets of the fund or (ii) members’ account by way of unit deduction. The BOC-Prudential MPF Conservative Fund uses method (i) and, therefore, unit prices/ NAV/ fund performance quoted have incorporated the impact of fees and charges.

You should not solely rely on the stand-alone document to make any investment decision, please refer to the Principal Brochure of BOC-Prudential Easy-Choice Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme for further details (including risk factors, fees and charges, and fund information).

1 This constituent fund invests at least 50% of its net asset value in assets denominated and settled in RMB, and thus is subject to RMB currency risk. RMB is not freely convertible and is subject to policies of exchange controls and repatriation restrictions. There is no guarantee that the RMB will not depreciate or RMB will not be subject to devaluation. Besides, this constituent fund is also subject to risk relating to limited pool of investments, credit/insolvency risk of counterparties, liquidity risks, emerging market risk and interest rates risk, etc.. For further details, please refer to Section 3.2 – “Risk Factors” of the Principal Brochure of BOC-Prudential Easy-Choice Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme. 2 Management fees currently comprise of trustee fee and investment management fee only and will be payable monthly in arrears and shall be accrued on each dealing day but will only be payable to the Trustee and the Investment Manager in a particular month in the following circumstances: (a) if the amount of income and profits from the funds of the BOC-Prudential MPF RMB & HKD Money Market Fund (this constituent fund is denominated in HKD only and not in RMB) in that particular month exceeds the amount of interest that would be earned if those funds had been placed on deposit in a Hong Kong dollar savings account at the prescribed savings rate (as prescribed by the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority from time to time pursuant to section 37 of the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes (General) Regulation), an amount not exceeding the excess may be deducted from BOC-Prudential MPF RMB & HKD Money Market Fund (this constituent fund is denominated in HKD only and not in RMB) as management fees for that month; (b) if in a particular month no amount is deducted under (a) above or the amount that is deducted is less than the actual management fees for the month, the management fees in that particular month is considered to be waived or partially waived by the Trustee and the Investment Manager (as the case may be) and the deficiency will not be deducted from the amount of any excess that may remain in any of the following months. In respect of any increase in fees and charges from the current level (up to a permitted maximum level), at least three months prior notice will be given. For details of other fees and charges, please refer to Section 7 – “Fees and Charges” of the Principal Brochure of BOC-Prudential Easy-Choice Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme. 3 The new risk levels are categorized into low, low to medium, medium, medium to high and high. The risk levels are determined by BOCI-Prudential Asset Management Limited based on the investment mix of each constituent fund and/or its underlying investments, and represent only the views of BOCI-Prudential Asset Management Limited in respect of the relevant constituent funds. Such risk levels are for reference only and should not be regarded as investment advice. You should not rely on the risk levels only when making any investment decision. The risk profile is determined based on data as at 31 December 2012 and will be reviewed and (if appropriate) updated at least annually taking into account the prevailing market circumstances. If you are in doubt about the information of risk level, you should seek independent financial and/or professional advice. 4 Members of the Scheme should note that investment in the BOC-Prudential MPF RMB & HKD Money Market Fund (this constituent fund is denominated in HKD only and not in RMB) and BOC-Prudential MPF Conservative Fund are not the same as placing funds on deposit with a bank or deposit-taking company and that there is no obligation to redeem the investment at the subscription value and that these two constituent funds are not subject to the supervision of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. 5 Fees and charges of a MPF conservative fund can be deducted from either (i) the assets of the fund or (ii) members’ account by way of unit deduction. The BOC-Prudential MPF Conservative Fund uses method (i) and, therefore, unit prices/NAV/fund performance quoted have incorporated the impact of fees and charges. Investment involves risks. The portfolio of the Scheme is subject to market fluctuations and exchange rate fluctuations and to the risks inherent in all investments. The subscription and redemption prices of units of the constituent funds may go down as well as up. Please refer to the Principal Brochure of the BOC-Prudential Easy-Choice Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme for further details.
