3 Key Features of the Its aims To provide a chid with a tax-free ump sum at the start of their adut ife. To achieve growth by investing in stocks and shares through a choice of two investment funds. Your investment If you take out a, you can invest up to 3,720 in the current tax year, ess any amounts subscribed to a Cash junior ISA with another Junior ISA Manager. Scottish Friendy ony offers investment into a Stocks & Shares Junior ISA. June 2013 You can invest monthy by Direct Debit or you can make a ump sum payment by cheque or both. The minimum monthy payment is 10 and the minimum ump sum cheque is 50. Anyone, such as parents, grandparents, unces, aunts or famiy friends may aso contribute to the chid's Junior ISA provided the maximum that is invested does not exceed 3,720 in the current tax year. Your money buys shares in the Scottish Friendy UK Growth Fund or the Scottish Friendy Managed Growth Fund, both sub-funds of an Open-Ended Investment Company (OIEC) caed Scottish Friendy Investment Funds. The UK Growth Fund invests in a wide range of UK shares. A proportion may aso be hed in cash. The Managed Growth Fund invests in equities and fixed interest securities both in the UK and other internationa stock markets. Fixed interest securities may comprise government securities such as gits or corporate bonds and these may be denominated in stering and other foreign currencies. The use of derivatives, stock ending or borrowing may aso take pace when deemed appropriate to achieve the objectives of the fund. Your money is pooed together with other OEIC investors giving a combined purchasing power that means your risk is spread across a wide portfoio of investments. The fund accumuates any income from the investment and this is refected in the daiy share price. Page 2

4 Risks Once money has been paid into the Junior ISA, it is ocked in. It can ony be taken out by the chid when he or she reaches the age of 18. Any payment made to the Junior ISA cannot be returned to the donor. The vaue of the chid s investment, and the income it earns, can go down as we as up and the chid coud get back ess than you put in. The vaue of the chid s investment is not guaranteed. If you're investing reguary for a particuar purpose, you may not achieve your target if you do not keep up your payments. The tax treatment of Junior ISAs depends on individua circumstances and tax aw may change in future. As the two funds avaiabe are activey managed, these funds contain a greater degree of risk than a fund that simpy tracks the stock market and wi depend on the manager s abiity to seect stocks and shares that can grow. The Managed Growth Fund is exposed to and can hod currencies other than stering. As a resut, exchange rate movements may affect your investment as we as price movements. There are no canceation rights for this investment. In some circumstances, for exampe if the fund is experiencing significant buying or seing, the financia interests of existing investors may be protected by the charging of a diution evy when shares are bought or sod. See page 8 for more detais. Detais of a the risks are avaiabe within the fu prospectus which is avaiabe on request. Questions & answers What is an ISA? The Junior ISA is an Individua Savings Account for chidren and aows any investments to grow free of tax. It can be taken out by anyone with parenta responsibiity for a chid and which aows any investments to grow free of tax. When the chid turns 18, the pan vaue can be accessed and becomes the ega property of the chid. Is this investment right for my chid? You shoud consider this investment if you (or anyone ese) wants to make reguar payments or a ump sum payment into an investment for a chid, for whom you have responsibiity, and where the investment's performance is inked to UK and internationa stocks and shares. The funds are not suitabe if you do not wish to take any risk with your money. Whist your investment may be ocked away on your chid's behaf for up to 18 years (depending on the age of your chid when you set up your Junior ISA) you shoud be thinking of investing over at east five years. Page 3

5 If you are in any doubt about the suitabiity of this investment for your chid, you may wish to contact an independent financia adviser. Within the tax-free Junior ISA umbrea you can invest in one or more of the foowing two forms of savings or investment: Stocks and Shares (either directy or via a coective investment scheme such as an OIEC, a unit trust, an investment trust or via a ife insurance poicy). A Cash Deposit Account (not offered by Scottish Friendy). What are the tax advantages? A Junior ISA is a savings or investment pan where your Junior ISA proceeds are free from UK income tax and capita gains tax. However, as with any tax-free investment such as a pension or ISA, any UK dividend income is received after the deduction of corporation tax. When the Junior ISA pan vaue is paid out to the chid at the age of 18, the ump sum is free of any tax charge. How much can anyone invest in a Junior ISA? Junior ISA accounts are cassified as either Stocks and Shares or Cash Accounts. You can invest a tota of up to 3,720 in tax year 2013/2014 in either of, or a combination of both, accounts. Anyone can invest in a Junior ISA but it can ony be set up (opened) by someone with parenta responsibiity for the chid. What types of Junior ISA does Scottish Friendy offer? Scottish Friendy offers a Stocks and Shares Junior ISA with a choice of investment into our OIEC funds. These Key Features reate specificay to investment into the UK Growth Fund and Managed Growth Fund which are two of our OIEC Funds. Who can open a Junior ISA? A can be set up by anyone with parenta responsibiity for a chid who is a UK resident. Aternativey, a chid over the age of 16 may open a Junior ISA on their own behaf. The person opening the account wi be the Account's registered contact unti the chid turns 16 or the registered contact signs over responsibiity to another adut with parenta responsibiity. A Scottish Friendy Junior ISA may not be opened in the name of a chid who aready has a Stocks & Shares Junior ISA or a Chid Trust Fund. Who can invest in a Junior ISA? Once setup anyone can invest in a chid's : parents, guardians, grandparents, aunts, unces, famiy friends. Page 4

6 How can I pay into the Junior ISA? You or anyone ese can make singe payments by cheque or monthy payments by Direct Debit. If investing with a singe payment, your appication shoud be returned directy with your cheque. If you wish to invest monthy, compete and return the Direct Debit on the appication form. Top-up contributions during the tax year shoud be made in writing accompanied with a cheque. Can reguar payments be changed? Yes. You can increase, decrease or stop your payments at any time without penaty. Just et us know in writing if you wish to ater your monthy payment and we wi do the rest. Who has contro over the? The person that set up the Junior ISA who has parenta contro over the chid can contro the Junior ISA. This person wi be known as the registered contact. Ony one person can be the registered contact however this can be transferred to another person with parenta responsibiity when requested in writing. When the chid turns 16 the chid may become the registered contact and take contro over the Junior ISA - athough they cannot make withdrawas unti they are 18. Shoud the chid wish to take contro of their Junior ISA they can simpy write to Scottish Friendy at the address on page 11 and we wi transfer the registered contact to the chid's name (having verified their identity). The current registered contact cannot egay object to the chid becoming the new registered contact. Where wi you invest the pan money? Your money buys shares in the Scottish Friendy UK Growth Fund or the Scottish Friendy Managed Growth Fund where it is pooed with other investors to buy shares in carefuy seected companies as we as some Government-backed fixed interest securities. Because your money is spread over so many companies, the risk of it being affected by a singe underperforming share is reduced. Investment in fixed interest securities aso provides additiona security for your investment in times of stock market voatiity. Your shares are hed in the name of Scottish Friendy as nominee. The Managed Growth Fund aunched 31 May The UK Growth Fund was aunched on 21 May The base currency of these funds is Stering. These funds are sub-funds of Scottish Friendy Investment Funds (the 'Company'). The Company is an investment company with variabe capita incorporated under the OEIC reguations. This company is incorporated in Scotand. Both funds are managed by SVM Asset Managers based in Edinburgh and founded in Page 5

7 Can anyone make withdrawas the? Before the chid turns 18 there is no ega right of access to the assets within the Junior ISA. Therefore any vaue within the pan is ocked in unti the chid turns 18. Can I transfer to another Junior ISA? Yes. As the chid can ony ever have one, you may want to transfer the proceeds of his or her existing Junior ISA to another provider. A transfers wi be made in cash after seing the proceeds of your existing investment. Can the chid have more than one Junior ISA over different tax years? No, unike an (adut) ISA the chid can ony have one Cash Junior ISA and one over their ifetime as a chid, that is up to age 18. This means that shoud you wish to pay contributions to another provider you wi first have to transfer the chid's existing Junior ISA to the new provider. What happens when the chid turns 18? When the chid turns 18 the Junior ISA wi become an (adut) ISA meaning that the assets wi become their ega property and the chid (now 18) wi have fu contro over the assets within the ISA and can make partia or fu withdrawas. You shoud note that before we can aow withdrawas or any other activity under the ISA the chid wi be required to sign our ISA terms and conditions and their identity wi be verified in accordance with the money aundering reguations that appy at that time. You shoud note that any reguar payments into the Junior ISA by Direct Debit or Standing Order wi automaticay cease when the chid turns 18. What happens to the if the chid dies? The fu vaue of the shares in the Scottish Friendy UK Growth Fund and/or Managed Growth Fund wi be paid to the chid's estate and the tax advantages wi end. How can I find out how much the Junior ISA is worth? We wi send the chid a vauation statement of his/her Junior ISA once a year. This statement wi show the activity that has taken pace since any previous statement and incude the number of shares the chid owns and the vaue of the investments. The vaue of the investment, and the income it earns, can go down as we as up and the chid coud get back ess than you put in. The vaue of the investment is not guaranteed. The price of shares is cacuated every working day and quoted daiy in the Financia Times and The Herad and on our website Page 6

8 What coud the savings be worth in the future? The iustrations beow give you an idea of how much your investments coud be worth in the years ahead. They assume an investment in the Managed Growth Fund or the UK Growth Fund. The fina amount wi depend on how much you invest, the actua charges over the fu term of your investment and the actua rate at which your investment grows. A. Reguar monthy payments If you invest a monthy payment of 25 for 18 years, the tabe beow shows how much your investment woud be worth, after charges, if it performs each year by: 4% 7% 9% 7,410 8,980 10,900 B. Lump sum investment If you invest a singe payment of 3,000 for 18 years, the tabe beow shows how much your investment woud be worth, after charges, if it grows each year by: 4% 7% 9% 5,470 7,680 10,700 For both the reguar monthy payments and ump sum investment exampes shown above, pease note: These figures are ony exampes and are not guaranteed - they are not minimum or maximum amounts. What the chid wi get back depends on how your investment grows and the tax treatment of your investment. They coud get back more or ess than this. These yeary growth rates are our reasonabe estimate of what our investments might achieve and are the maximum permitted by the Financia Conduct Authority. Scottish Friendy's actua charges have been deducted in cacuating the figures shown. Do not forget that infation wi reduce what you can buy with the vaue of your Junior ISA in the future. What are the charges? A management charge of 1% a year of the fund vaue is taken into account in the daiy cacuation of the Fund share price. In addition, a number of other fees are payabe out of the fund. These incude audit, custody, reguator's and depository fees. The estimated effect of these fees as at 31 December 2012 is 0.54% per annum, aowing for tax reief, which is aso taken into account in the daiy cacuation of the share price of the fund. Stamp Duty Reserve Tax is aso charged to the fund. The fund is vaued daiy and the amount of the charge is deducted on a daiy basis from the vaue of the fund. We have taken account of a these charges in the figures shown in these exampes. They coud increase in the future if our costs increase more than expected. Page 7

9 In addition, there are transaction expenses incurred by the Fund when the fund manager buys and ses the Fund's investments and these are paid out of the capita of the Fund. These expenses incude the commission the fund manager pays its stockbroker. The net asset vaue of a fund is determined from the vaue midway between the buying and seing prices of the fund's underying assets. This mid-price does not fuy refect the actua prices the fund must pay or receive to buy or se assets, and so purchases or saes of assets cause the vaue to be reduced for continuing investors. In the unikey event you are making an especiay arge purchase or sae, or if the fund is experiencing significant buying or seing, the effect is caed 'diution'. In such circumstances, the financia interests of existing and continuing sharehoders may be protected by the charging of a 'diution evy' when shares are bought or sod. The diution evy wi be paid into the fund for the benefit of investors. The diution evy for the fund wi be cacuated by reference to the costs of deaing in the underying investments of that fund, incuding any deaing spreads, commissions and transfer taxes. Payment of commission Scottish Friendy Asset Managers Limited wi pay Lifestye Marketing (Mother & Baby) Limited a commission for introducing Junior ISA. The amount of commission wi be 35% of the first year s premiums. For exampe, on a 25 per month investment, the tota commission payabe wi be 105. This is subject to tota commission of 30,000 per month. Commission is paid out of poicy charges. The payments do not affect the money paid into a given Junior ISA. How wi charges and expenses affect my investment? A. Reguar Monthy Payments The effect of these charges on your monthy payment of 25, assuming an average rate of growth of 7% a year, is set out beow: At the end of year Investment to date Effect of deductions to date What you might get back , , , , , , ,400 1,590 8,980 Page 8

10 The ast ine in the tabe shows that if you withdraw your investments after 18 years, the effect of the tota charges and expenses coud amount to 1,590. Putting it another way, this woud have the same effect as bringing the investment growth from 7% a year down to 5.3% a year. B. Lump Sum Investment The effect of these charges on your singe payment of 3,000, assuming an average rate of growth of 7% a year, is set out beow: At the end of year Investment to date Effect of deductions to date What you might get back 1 3, , , , , , , , ,000 1,700 6, ,000 2,450 7,680 The ast ine in the tabe shows that if you withdraw your investment after 18 years, the effect of the tota charges and expenses coud amount to 2,450. Putting it another way, this woud have the same effect as bringing the investment growth from 7% a year down to 5.3% a year. Further information Share Prices The price of shares is cacuated every business day by dividing the tota vaue of the assets of the reevant fund by the number of shares in existence. Share prices are quoted daiy in the Financia Times and The Herad and on our website: We wi buy or se shares for you at the next 12 noon vauation foowing receipt of your instructions. This is known as forward pricing. Documentation We wi send the chid a statement confirming their investment. We wi aso send them a vauation of the investment twice a year. The Report wi show the activity that has taken pace since their previous statement and incude the number of shares the chid owns. A copy of the funds' prospectus is avaiabe on request. Page 9

11 Canceation rights There are no canceation rights avaiabe under this pan. Investment income Any investment income earned is automaticay reinvested. Tax recaimed on this income is aso reinvested on the chid s behaf. Withdrawas You cannot make withdrawas from this investment within the Junior ISA athough you may transfer to another provider. Switching If you wish to switch your investment to a different Scottish Friendy OEIC fund (contact us or visit our website for detais of these), simpy et us know in writing. We normay switch shares between funds on the first 12 noon vauation after we receive your instructions. The first switch in anyone caendar year is free, thereafter subsequent switches wi attract a evy of up to 3% of the shares being exchanged. Transfer out At your written request, we wi transfer your Junior ISA investment to another Junior ISA Manager without the oss of tax reief in ine with current Junior ISA rues. Transfer payments wi be met by seing shares in the fund, at the next vauation point foowing receipt of competed written instructions from your new Junior ISA Manager. We wi then pay the proceeds to the new manager within 4 working days. Taxation Any income and capita gains generated from investments in a Junior ISA are free of UK income tax and capita gains tax. Income aocations wi be in the form of interest or dividend distributions. Interest distributions are received net of a 10% Income Tax credit. The above is based on Scottish Friendy's understanding of current tax aw and practice. Tax aw may change in the future and may reduce the amount the chid gets back or increase the amount of tax they pay. The regime of taxation of any gains received by an investor depends on tax aw appicabe to their individua circumstances. If an investor is uncear about his/her position, he/she shoud seek professiona advice. Money Laundering Reguations 2007 Under these reguations, there is a requirement to prove the identity of peope who wish to take out a ife, pension or investment contract. You may therefore be asked to suppy documents as evidence of your identity and/or your address. Page 10

12 Stamp Duty Reserve Tax The Finance Act 1999 introduced, from 6 February 2000, a system of Stamp Duty Reserve Tax (SORT) for certain deas in the shares of OEICs. The iabiity for payment of this duty ies with the OEIC, and the reguations permit that payments of SORT may either be paid from the property of the fund, or for the company to evy an SORT provision against the individua purchase and sae of shares. This woud, if imposed, increase the cost of buying shares and essen the proceeds of saes by the investor. It is not Scottish Friendy's intention to appy the SORT charge against deas; our poicy is that SORT wi be charged as an expense to the property of the fund. What happens if Scottish Friendy becomes insovent? If you buy a Scottish Friendy Junior ISA and we cannot pay the fu amount due, you may be entited to compensation under the Financia Services Compensation Scheme. The first 50,000 of a caim in reation to the pan vaue is protected in fu.
