Informations about the Fund AMF Classification Diversified. The Fund is an index-tracking Fund. Allocation of net profit Accumulation. Allocation of net capital gains realised Accumulation. Tax treatment The Fund is eligible for life insurance policies. The Fund may provide a support vehicle for life insurance policies denominated in units of account. The UCITS, by its nature, is not subject to taxation. However, unitholders may be taxed on any income distributed by the Fund or when they sell Fund units. The tax treatment applicable to amounts distributed by the Fund or unrealised or realised capital gains or losses will depend on the individual unitholder's tax situation, residence for tax purposes and/or the investment jurisdiction of the Fund. If an investor is uncertain of his or her tax position, the investor should consult a financial advisor or a professional investment consultant to determine the tax rules applicable to his or her particular situation before any investment. Some income distributed by the UCITS to unitholders residing outside France may be subject to withholding tax in France. Benchmark index The Fund s benchmark index is the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index, a total return index (i.e including returns on cash in addition to any gain on the commodities), denominated in US dollars. The S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index is an index calculated and published by the international index provider Standard & Poors ( S&P ). The S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index reflects the sum of the following: - the performance of a portfolio of derivative instruments, and in particular futures (the Futures Contracts ) on precious and industrial metals; the performance taking account the rolling of future contracts (the futures' rolls ) before their expiry dates; and - the theoretical return in cash terms on the Funds allocated to investment in these commodities, this return in cash terms being indexed on the market rates on 91-day American Treasury bills ( US T-Bills ), set in each weekly auction). Management fees & commissions Administrative and management fees: 0.30% including tax. Subscription fees received by the Fund: None. In compliance with current regulations, this mutual fund has, during the financial period just ended, levied charges at rates which are in line with those stated in the Prospectus and used under the following headings: - Notes to the Annual Accounts /- Management fees. - Shareholders Funds /-Subscription and/or redemption fees /- Management fees. Investment objective The Fund s investment objective is to track the performance of the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index (see Benchmark Index section), as closely as possible, whether the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index rises or falls. The Fund will therefore be exposed to commodities, primarily to precious and industrial metals. The Fund is managed so as to achieve a gap between changes in its NAV and changes in the value of the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index (referred to below as the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Semi-Annual Report on 09/30/15 3
Commodity Index ) as small as possible. Therefore, the target maximum tracking error between the change in the Fund s net asset value and the change in the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index is 2%. If the tracking error exceeds 2%, the aim would nevertheless be to remain below 15% of the volatility shown by the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index. Investment strategy The Fund is managed by index tracking. 1. Strategy employed: The Fund is managed by a technique known as index-tracking, and the objective is to replicate changes in the performance of S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index using a swap-based replication method. To bring about exposure to the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index, the Fund will resort to the following: - in order to generate a return matching that of the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index, an OTC hedge on bonds and indices which turns the theoretical return in cash terms on the Funds allocated to investment in these commodities (this return in cash terms being indexed on the 91-day US T-Bill rates as set in each weekly auction) or a fixed rate into an exposure to the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index; and - in order to generate the theoretical return in cash terms on the Funds allocated to investment in these commodities (this return in cash terms being indexed on the 91-day US T-Bill rates as set in each weekly auction), by means of a portfolio of securities. The Fund s risk diversification will be evaluated against its corresponding rules by only taking into consideration the securities underlying the derivative instruments, including securities embedded derivatives. The Fund s assets may thus be invested in non-diversified balance sheet assets, as long as, after the underlying items of the derivatives are taken into account, net exposure of the underlying items complies with the diversification rules. The Fund will neither trade in nor itself take delivery of any commodities. The Fund will comply with the investment rules set forth in Articles R 214-21 and R214-22 of the French Monetary and Financial Code (CMF). The Portfolio comprising directly held assets described in the "Assets used" section, complies with the provisions of Article R 214-21 of the French Monetary and Financial Code (CMF). The Fund's exposure to the Index achieved through the total return swap may be eligible for exemption ratios applicable to the index-tracking UCITS referred to in Article R214-22 of the French Monetary and Financial Code (CMF). That Article stipulates that an index may comprise up to 20% equities or debt securities issued by the same entity; this limit may be raised to 35% maximum for a single issuing entity, when such increase is justified by special market circumstances such as the regulated markets where some marketable securities or some money-market instruments are largely dominant. 2. Assets used (except embedded derivatives): The Fund's exposure to the Index is achieved through the total return swap. The Portfolio consists of the Fund's directly held assets described below. - Securities: Up to 100% of the Fund s net assets will be invested in securities of the OECD countries. The securities held by the Fund will be selected to streamline the Fund's money management in US dollars and to track, as closely as possible, the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index. They will mostly be fixed interest securities from OECD countries, including government stock, Treasury Bills, Deposit Certificates, commercial paper, bonds issued by firms registered in OECD countries, BMTN (negotiable medium-term notes) and EMTN (Euro Medium Term Notes).

- Interest-rate instruments: Up to 100% of the Fund s net assets may be invested in any kind of monetary and/or bond instrument from OECD countries. The bond issuers selected may be from the private sector or from the public sector (national or local governments, etc.), and private sector debt may account for up to 100% of all debt instruments. - UCITS units or shares: The Fund may hold up to 10% of its assets in UCITS units and/or shares. These UCITS are representative of all asset classes, in compliance with the Fund's requirements. They may be UCITS managed by the Management Company, or by other entities, regardless of whether they belong to the Crédit Agricole SA Group, including related companies. 3. Derivatives: The Fund may use OTC derivative financial instruments (including security-linked total return swaps) to swap the money-market exposure to US T-Bills and exposure to the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index. Off-balance sheet commitments are calculated by the accrual method of accounting. The Fund may take positions in the following derivatives: Type of market: regulated, organized, over-the-counter. Categories of risk in which the Fund intends to take a position: equity risk, interest rate risk, currency risk, credit risk, other risks. Nature of positions to be taken, which must be limited to those required to meet the management objective: hedging, exposure, arbitrage, other.

Strategies for use of incorporated derivatives to achieve the management objective: constructing synthetic exposure to a particular security, sector and/or to the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index via the use of swaps. management of intermediate cash flows (dividends, subscriptions/redemptions, etc.) to reach the desired degree of exposure to a particular stock and/or sector and or the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index via the use of futures. management of intermediate cash flows (dividends, subscriptions/redemptions, etc.) to reach the desired degree of exposure to a particular stock and/or sector and/or to the S&P GSCI All Metals Capped Commodity Index via the use of options.
