  4. PXP VSCF – Introduction Fund offers unique access to a portfolio of the leading smaller Vietnam-listed companies for long-term capital appreciation. Focus on relatively-undiscovered opportunities in the under-researched smaller companies space (US$20-250 million market cap at time of initial investment). Valuations for selected smaller equities are attractive due to a combination of: • Limited sell-side research • Limited foreign participation • Lack of fundamental consideration by domestic investors • Limited price distortion away from ETF & large-cap foreign flow focus The Fund capitalises on PXP Vietnam’s equity research capabilities to invest outside the mainstream where informational inefficiencies and illiquidity create opportunity. We invest in what we strongly believe are the highest quality smaller companies creating a diversified portfolio offering exposure to the next generation of Vietnam’s corporate leaders. 4

  13. Accessing Vietnam’s Smaller Companies Exchange Direct Equity PXP Vietnam Traded Funds Access Smaller Companies Fund • ETFs facilitate easy access and exit but cannot hold the higher quality stocks by virtue of limitations applied regarding size, liquidity and availability to foreigners • Direct equity access is problematic due to the cumbersome application process and low quality of sell-side research with extremely limited stock coverage • Smaller companies universe is under-researched, liquidity discount apparent • PXP Vietnam Asset Management is well-placed to identify opportunities, having arguably the broadest coverage of Vietnamese listed equities in the market 13
