Total gross proceeds of the 1,000,000,000 Offer Shares, if sold as of 31 May 2014, are estimated at
PHP3,558,800,000 (computed by multiplying 1,000,000,000 Offer Shares by PHP3.5588 NAVPS as
of 31 May 2014).

The net proceeds from the sale of securities will be used to invest in a mix of Peso-denominated and

foreign issuers. For a more detailed discussion, please refer to the section entitled “Use of Proceeds”.

The shares are being offered in the Philippines through Sun Life Asset Management Company, Inc.
(“SLAMCI”). SLAMCI is being paid the following fees: (a) as the Fund’s adviser and manager, an

All of the offered shares are common shares, voting with identical rights and privileges, and may be

The Board of Directors of the Fund has the power to fix and determine the amount to be reserved or
provided for declaration and payment of dividends from the Fund’s unrestricted retained earnings.
The amount of such dividends (either in cash, stock, property or a combination of the foregoing) will
depend on the Fund’s profits, cash flows, capital expenditure, financial condition, and other factors.
The existence of surplus profit arising from the operation of the Fund is needed before a dividend can
be declared. The surplus profits or income must be a bona fide income founded upon actual earnings
or profits. Actual earnings or profits shall be the net income for the year based on the audited financial
statements, adjusted for unrealized items, which are considered not available for dividend declaration.

Cash dividends and property dividends may be declared by the Board of Directors and no stockholder
approval is required. Stock dividends paid on the Offer Shares are subject to approval by both the
Board of Directors and the stockholders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding
capital stock of the Fund at a stockholders’ meeting called for such purpose.

Under the Corporation Code, Corporations with surplus profit in excess of 100% of its paid-in capital
stock are required to declare dividends (cash or stock) and distribute it to its stockholders.

Dividends so declared will be automatically reinvested in additional shares on behalf of the


shareholders, without sales charges, at the NAVPS on the payment date established for such
dividends. Shareholders may also elect not to have dividends reinvested and receive payment in
cash, net of tax.

The Fund shall not participate in any underwriting or selling group in connection with the public
distribution of securities, except for its own capital stock.

Unless otherwise stated, the information contained in this Prospectus has been supplied by the Fund,
which accepts full responsibility for the accuracy of the information and confirms, having made all
reasonable inquiries, that to the best of its knowledge and belief, there are no material facts the

the date hereof.

SUMMARY

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information appearing
elsewhere in this Prospectus. Certain terms used herein are defined under “Glossary”.

THE FUND

The Fund is a Philippine corporation registered as an open-end investment company under R. A.


2629 and R. A. 8799, on December 21, 1999 under SEC Registration No. A199908713. The Fund’s
investment objective is to provide moderate growth and a steady income stream through investments
in high quality equity securities and high quality corporate and government debt securities.

Open-end mutual fund companies in the Philippines are organized as stock corporations. The Fund
may become fully subscribed at any point in time. In such case, the Fund would continue to accept
deposits for future subscription (“DFFS”) in anticipation of an increase in capital, subject to the
requirements of the law and regulations on the same. The DFFS accepted would be earmarked for
the issuance of the appropriate number of shares that the DFFS would have purchased as of date of
acceptance. Upon approval of the increase in authorized capital stock and upon registration of the
new shares resulting therefrom with the SEC, the Fund would release the shares the DFFS had
purchased, according to the “first in, first out” rule.

 Market Risk: Interest Rate Risk


 Credit Risk
 Liquidity Risk
 Regulatory Risk
 Non-guarantee Risk
 Dilution Risk
 Large Transaction Risk
 Fund Manager Risk

8
The enumerated risks could adversely affect the redemption value of the securities for the
shareholders resulting in losses should the shareholder redeem his shares when the NAVPS of the
Fund is below his acquisition cost. For a more detailed discussion of these risks to be considered in
connection with an investment in the Fund’s shares, see “Risk Factors”.

TERMS OF THE OFFER

The Fund is offering 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of PHP 0.01 per share,
at an offer price of the current NAVPS. The Offer Shares are being offered in the Philippines through
SLAMCI.

Minimum Initial Investment PHP5,000.00

Minimum Subsequent PHP1,000.00


Investment

Minimum Redemption PHP1,000.00.


Amount
The minimum redemption amount of PHP1,000.00 is
observed unless the redemption is part of a special
arrangement or other services offered by SLAMCI.
Should the shares of the investor fall below the minimum
redemption amounts after redemption, SLAMCI may, without
notice, redeem the remaining shares and pay the proceeds to
the investor. The Fund reserves the right to change the
minimum maintaining balance from time to time as it deems
necessary.

Offer Price The Offer Price per Offer Share is the current NAVPS.

Voting Rights Each holder of a share in the Fund is entitled to one vote, in
person or by proxy, for each share held by such shareholder.

Dividends The Board of Directors of the Fund has the power to fix and
determine the amount to be reserved or provided for
declaration and payment of dividends from the Fund’s
unrestricted retained earnings. The amount of such dividends
(either in cash, stock, property or a combination of the
foregoing) will depend on the Fund’s profits, cash flows,
capital expenditure, financial condition, and other factors. The
existence of surplus profit arising from the operation of the
Fund is needed before a dividend can be declared. The
surplus profits or income must be a bona fide income
founded upon actual earnings or profits. Actual earnings or
profits shall be the net income for the year based on the
audited financial statements, adjusted for unrealized items,
which are considered not available for dividend declaration.
Cash dividends and property dividends may be declared by
the Board of Directors and no stockholder approval is
required. Stock dividends paid on the Offer Shares are
subject to approval by both the Board of Directors and the
stockholders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the
outstanding capital stock of the Fund at a stockholders’
meeting called for such purpose.

Under the Corporation Code, Corporations with surplus profit

9
in excess of 100% of its paid-in capital stock are required to
declare dividends (cash or stock) and distribute it to its
stockholders.

Eligibility Both Philippine nationals and non-Philippine nationals can


subscribe to the Fund’s Shares, including the Offer Shares.

Application and Payment Shares of the Fund are sold on cash basis only. Installment
sales will not be made.
Shares of the Fund are offered for sale on a continuous basis
at the NAVPS through SLAMCI’s registered representatives
and dealers. The dealers and registered representatives are
required to forward to SLAMCI the prescribed and complete
documents to purchase shares of the Fund on the same
business day they are received. For purposes of facilitating
transactions, the completed documents may be submitted
electronically through fax or on-line, or any mode of
transmittal which SLAMCI may establish and deem
acceptable from time to time. All payments to be forwarded
to and received by SLAMCI should come with and must be
supported by the appropriate documents. Payments must
also be forwarded and received by SLAMCI through
mediums recognized and accredited by SLAMCI. The
investor’s account will be credited for the subscription only
when the payment is in the form of cash, cheque or electronic
transfer. The subscription will not be processed into the
investor’s account until the payments have become available
to the Fund for investment deployment. Investors should
inquire with their banks the clearing time required for each
form of payment and when their investments will be available
to the Fund. Applicable bank charges will be deducted from
the investible amount.
SLAMCI has the option to process local cheques
denominated in Philippine Pesos as cleared funds provided
that:

1. The Investor accomplishes a Waived Clearing Form upon


payment.

2. The cheque will be deposited into a bank accredited by


SLAMCI for such purpose.

To reduce the adverse effect to existing investors of large


redemptions in the Fund, a subscription may be amended or
rejected if it makes the investor a holder of 10% or more of
the Fund’s net assets on subscription date.

Sales Loads The investor may choose to buy shares of the Funds on a
“front-end” (Option A) or a “back-end” (Option B) basis, as
described below:

Option A Sales commission will be paid to the investor’s mutual fund


dealer when shares of the Fund are bought. Under this
purchase option, the investor may redeem his shares free of
charge at any time.
The commission shall not exceed 2% of the investor’s total
purchase cost (2.04% of the net invested amount).

10
Option B Allows all of an investor’s money to be invested, with no initial
sales commission deducted. SLAMCI pays a commission to
the dealer on the investor’s purchase. In return, the investor
agrees to “repay” SLAMCI a deferred sales charge (“DSC”)
plus VAT, but only if the investor sells the investment, or a
portion thereof, within 5 years. The DSC rate declines the
longer an investor holds the investment, and disappears after
five (5) years. (See Exhibit 1)
In order to reduce the DSC payable, the oldest shares of the
investor in the Fund will be redeemed first, unless the
investor chooses to have subsequently purchased shares
redeemed first.

Subscription Process Subscriptions received by SLAMCI or its authorized


distributors by 12 o’clock noon on a business day will be
processed at the NAVPS determined at the close of business
that day.
SLAMCI reserves the right to reject any specific subscription
or to restrict purchases by a particular investor, for example,
when such purchase is contrary to the best interests of the
other shareholders or would otherwise disrupt the
management of the Fund. This decision will be made within
two (2) business days after receipt of the subscription and, in
the event of a rejection, the subscription amount will be
returned as soon as possible to the investor without interest
and after deducting applicable bank charges.

Cut-Off Period If received after 12 o’clock noon, subscriptions will be


processed at the NAVPS calculated for the next business
day.
Shares are redeemable at any time at their NAVPS. Further,
Redemption Process
redemption of transferred shares originally under Option “B”
or “C” (under the old Sales Load structure as discussed in
Exhibit 1) will be subjected to the applicable deferred sales
charge.

A shareholder may request for the redemption of his shares


by delivering an order ticket or any document to be
prescribed and recognized by SLAMCI for redemption to a
registered representative or dealer or to SLAMCI. The order
ticket for redemption must be accompanied by the
appropriate certificate(s), if applicable, representing the
shares to be redeemed.

The redemption price is the NAVPS at the close of business


day if order ticket is received on or before 12 o’clock noon.
After 12 o’clock noon, the order ticket is deemed to have
been received the following business day, and the
redemption price will be the NAVPS determined at the close
of business on the next business day.

Payment upon redemption will be made either by issuing a


cheque to the registered shareholder or through bank
remittance. Payments for shares redeemed, less any
redemption charges and taxes applicable, will be made by
the Fund within seven (7) business days from its receipt of
the request for redemption. Payment made through bank
remittance may be subjected to applicable bank charges,

11
subject to client’s arrangement with the remitting and
receiving bank. SLAMCI reserves the right to deduct any
applicable bank charges from the redemption value. For
payment made through cheque issuance, investor will
receive payment within seven (7) banking days from date of
redemption for the amount redeemed.

The Fund may suspend redemptions or postpone the date of


payment for a redemption upon the occurrence of any of the
following: (i) when the Philippine banking system is closed,
(ii) for any period when normal trading is restricted or
suspended in the markets where the Fund may be
investing,(iii) for any period during which an emergency
exists as a result of which (A) disposal by the Fund of
securities owned by it is not reasonably practicable or (B) it is
not reasonably practicable for the Fund to fairly determine
the value of its net assets, (iv) when any breakdown occurs in
the means of communication normally employed in
determining the value of any of the investments of the Fund
or when for any other reason the value of any of the
investments or other assets of the Fund cannot reasonably or
fairly be ascertained, (v)when the shareholder fails to
surrender to SLAMCI the original share certificate on the
redeemed or transferred shares, or (vi) all other conditions for
the suspension of redemption are subject to the approval of
SEC per Section 22(b) (3) of R. A. No. 2629.

The SEC may, whenever necessary or appropriate, in the


public interest or for the protection of investors, suspend the
redemption of securities of open-end companies.

No deferred sales charge or redemption fee is imposed on


redemptions on transferred shares under Option B or Option
C (under the old Sales Load structure as discussed in Exhibit
1) in case of death of the investors. In order to qualify for this
waiver, redemption must be made within 1 year of a
shareholder’s death. SLAMCI must be notified in writing of
such death at the time of the redemption request either by
the legal heir or administrator of the estate appointed by the
court. SLAMCI must be provided with satisfactory evidence
of the death, identity of the heirs, or appointment of the
administrator, or such other documents necessary to process
the redemptions.

Restriction on Issue and SLOCPI and its nominees, who are original shareholders of
Transfer of Shares the Fund, shall not be allowed to sell, transfer, convey,
encumber or otherwise dispose of their shares within twelve
(12) months from the original registration of the Funds. Each
share of stock of the Fund is a voting stock with voting rights
equal to every outstanding share of stock. As of the date of
this Prospectus, this holding period has expired.

Transfers among Sun Life At any time, an investor who purchased shares of the Fund
Prosperity Funds may request through a registered representative that such
shares be redeemed and the proceeds reinvested in shares
of one (1) or more eligible SLAMCI-managed funds, i.e. Sun
Life Prosperity Money Market Fund, Inc., Sun Life of Canada
Prosperity Balanced Fund, Inc., Sun Life of Canada
Prosperity Philippine Equity Fund, Inc. and Sun Life

12
Prosperity GS Funds, Inc., subject to sales load upon entry.
Transfer from other eligible SLAMCI-managed funds is
allowed. However, the investor’s original purchase option
may not be changed upon such transfer. If the investor
originally purchased on a front-end basis, then the investor
cannot shift to the back end option when transferring.
A transfer of back end share does not trigger a deferred sales
charge (“DSC”). The “new” shares purchased on a transfer
are deemed to have the same date of purchase as the
original shares that were redeemed to make the transfer.
The minimum transfer amount is PHP1,000.00, provided that
the investor already has the minim required investment with
the Fund to which the transfer shall be made. The order
ticket to transfer must be made through the registered
representative or dealer who must forward the order ticket to
transfer to SLAMCI on the same day. On SLAMCI’s receipt
of an order ticket to transfer, shares will be redeemed by the
Fund, subject to the foregoing provisions on redemption, and
the proceeds of redemption will be applied to the purchase of
shares of another fund, at the applicable NAVPS, subject to
the provisions governing the purchase of the shares of the
other fund.
*Please see Exhibit 1 for details of front end and back end
sales loads.

Pre-emptive Right No stockholder shall, because of his ownership of stock,


have a pre-emptive or other right to purchase, subscribe for,
or take any part of any stock or of any other securities
convertible into carrying options or warrants to purchase
stock of the registrant.

Stock Certificate In the interest of economy and convenience, certificates of


shares will only be issued if so requested in writing by the
shareholder. Because the legal requirements for replacing
lost certificates entail costly and lengthy procedures, a fee of
PHP1,000.per certificate will be charged to replace lost
certificates.
Shareholders are given official receipts and confirmation slips
upon subscription. Shares are recorded on a stock register
by SLAMCI, and shareholders who do not elect to receive
certificates have the same rights as if certificates had been
issued to them.

RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

GENERAL WARNING

The price of securities can and does fluctuate, and any individual security may experience upward or
downward movements, and may even become valueless. There is an inherent risk that losses may
be incurred rather than profit made as a result of buying and selling securities.

Past performance is not a guide to future performance.

There is an extra risk of losing money when securities are bought from smaller companies. There
may be a big difference between the buying price and the selling price of these securities.

13
An investor deals in a range of investments each of which may carry a different level of risk.

PRUDENCE REQUIRED

The risk of disclosure does not purport to disclose all the risk and other significant aspects of investing
in these securities. An investor should undertake his own research and study on the trading of
securities before commencing any trading activity. He may request information on the securities and
issuer thereof from the Commission which are available to the public.

PROFESSIONAL ADVICE

The investor should seek professional advice if he is uncertain or has not understood any aspect of
the securities or the nature of risks involved in trading of securities, especially high risk securities.

RISK FACTORS

Before investing, potential investors should consider carefully the factors set forth below in
conjunction with the other information contained in this Prospectus, in evaluating an investment in the
Offer Shares.

There are many potential advantages to investing in mutual funds and in the Offer Shares. However,
in deciding to invest, the investor is strongly advised to also consider the risks involved in investing in
mutual funds, and in the Offer Shares, as well as the risks that the Fund faces, given its underlying
assets whose respective values essentially affect the Fund’s overall net asset value.

The Fund’s Risk Officer is responsible for overseeing the management of risks resulting from the
Fund’s business activities. He reports to the Audit and Compliance Committee of the Board of
Directors. His duties and responsibilities include, among others: monitoring the investments of the
Fund to ensure that all identified gaps in management’s risk and management processes are resolved
on a timely basis; provide leadership to facilitate management’s understanding of the risk
management framework, policies and processes; ensuring that the Philippine risk management
organization is appropriately staffed with individuals who have the requisite skills and competencies,
and that the organization structure and reporting relationships are appropriate and sufficiently
independent; organizing and participating in the risk workshops of the annual risk identification
process; ensuring that business units identify plausible risk scenarios; ensuring that risk-based
measurement and reporting metrics, including risk limits and exception reporting are established;
assigning risk category to the final risk lists; providing expertise in the development of action plans to
address the risks identified; reviewing and updating the risk report quarterly; identifying and escalating
as appropriate any missed target dates for key risk action plans; and providing documented quarterly
status updates on key risks to the Audit and Compliance Committee. Pursuant to the foregoing, the
Risk Officer has identified the risks enumerated below in order of importance:

Market Risk: Interest Rate Risk is a type of Market Risk which is applicable to the Fund’s
investments in bonds, if any. This refers to the increase/decrease of a bond price due to
movement in market factors such as changes in interest rates. A change in interest rates is the
period when interest rates rise or fall thus causing the decline or increase in the market price of
the bonds held by the Fund, if any. This risk is minimized by closely monitoring the direction of
interest rates and aligning it with the appropriate strategy of the Fund.

Credit Risk: Investments in bonds carry the risk that the issuer of the bonds might default on its
interest and principal payments. In the event of default, the Fund’s value will be adversely
affected and may result in a write-off of the concerned asset held by the Fund. To mitigate the
risk, each Issuer/Borrower/Counterparty passes through a stringent credit process to determine
whether its credit quality complies with the prescribed standards of the Fund. Further, the credit
quality of the Issuer/Borrower/Counterparty is reviewed periodically to ensure that excellent
credit standing is maintained. Moreover, a 10% exposure limit to a single entity is likewise
observed.

14
Liquidity Risk: The Fund is usually able to service redemptions of investors within seven (7)
banking days after receipt of the notice of redemption by paying out redemptions from available
cash or near cash assets in its portfolio. However, when redemptions exceed the Funds
available cash or near cash assets in its portfolio, the Fund will have to sell its other security
holdings; and during periods of extreme market volatility, the Fund may not be able to find a
buyer for such assets. Consequently, the Fund may not be able to generate sufficient cash from
its sale of assets to meet the redemptions within the normal seven (7) banking day period. To
mitigate this, the Fund maintains adequate highly liquid assets in the form of cash, cash
equivalents and near cash assets in its portfolio. As the Fund’s portfolio is composed of liquid
assets, liquidity risk is deemed low.

The following are additional risks present in managing the Fund, however, non-quantifiable.

Regulatory Risk: The Fund’s investments and operations are subject to various regulations
affecting among others, accounting of assets and taxation. These regulations occasionally
change, and may result in lower returns or even losses borne by the investors. For example, a
higher tax imposed on the sale or purchase of underlying assets of the Fund may result in lower
net asset value of the Fund. To mitigate this risk, SLAMCI adopts global best practices. Further,
it maintains regular communications with the relevant government agencies to keep itself abreast
of the issues giving them concern, and to have the opportunity to help them set standards for
good governance. SLAMCI also takes an active participation in the Philippine Investment Funds
Association, Inc. (“PIFA”), an association of mutual fund companies in the Philippines.

Non-guarantee: Unlike deposits made with banks, an investment in the Fund is neither insured
nor guaranteed by the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (“PDIC”). Hence, investors
carry the risk of losing the value of their investment, without any guaranty in the form of
insurance. Moreover, as with any investment, it is important to note that past performance of the
Fund does not guarantee its future success.

Dilution Risk: Being an open-end mutual fund, various investors may effectively subscribe to
any amount of shares of the Fund. As such, investors face the risk of their investments being
diluted as more investors subscribe to shares of the Fund. The influence that the investors can
exert over the control and management of the Fund decreases proportionately.

Large Transaction Risk: If an investor in a Fund makes a large transaction, the Fund’s cash
flow may be affected. For example, if an investor redeems a large number of shares of a Fund,
that Fund may be forced to sell securities at unfavorable prices to pay for the proceeds of
redemption. This unexpected sale may have a negative impact on the net asset value of the
Fund.

Fund Manager Risk: The performance of the Fund is also dependent on the Fund Manager’s
skills. Hence, the Fund may underperform in the market and/or in comparison with similar funds
due to investment decisions made by the Fund Manager, and may also fail to meet the Fund’s
investment objectives. The Board of Directors of the Issuer, however, shall ensure that all
investment policies and restrictions enumerated in this Prospectus are strictly followed.

The above risk factors are by no means exhaustive. New and/or unidentified risks may arise given
the fast changing financial markets and economic environment.

Classification of the Fund into high, moderate or low risk investment: In furtherance of its
investment objective, that is, to generate income in Philippine Pesos consistent with prudent
management of the Fund’s assets, the Fund’s portfolio may consist of fixed income and other related
securities of the Philippine Government, and commercial papers issued by corporations within the
Philippines, certificates of deposits, and other short-term instruments. Considering the nature of the
aforementioned investments, the Fund is classified as a low-to-moderate risk investment.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Proceeds from the sale of the Offer Shares will be used to invest in high-quality debt instruments
issued by the Republic of the Philippines and prime Philippine companies.

15
The Fund’s investment manager shall be guided by the Fund’s Investment Policies and legal
limitations. All the proceeds from the sale of shares, including the original subscription payments at
the time of incorporation constituting the paid in capital of the Fund, shall be held by the designated
custodian banks.

The Fund shall not make loans to other interested persons such as members of its Board of Directors,
officers of the Fund and any of its affiliates/affiliated corporations. The Fund shall not acquire assets
or finance the acquisition of other business. It does not have any existing debt, thus, proceeds shall
not be utilized to settle any existing indebtedness or obligation.

Expenses charged to the Fund include, but are not limited to, remuneration of the members of the
Board who are not officers and/or employees of SLOCPI and/or SLAMCI, SEC filing fees,
documentary stamp taxes, registration statement fees, transfer, distribution, and management fees.

16
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The Offer Price will be the NAVPS as at the end of the day. NAVPS is computed by dividing net
assets (total assets1 less total liabilities2) by the total number of shares issued and outstanding, plus
the total number of units outstanding due to DFFS and for conversion to shares, if any, as of the end
of the reporting day.

Completed subscriptions received by SLAMCI or its authorized distributors by 12 o’clock noon will be
processed at the NAVPS determined by SLAMCI at the close of business that day. If received after
12 o’clock noon, subscriptions will be processed at the NAVPS calculated for the next business day.

The Fund will compute and post the NAVPS on a daily basis and will publish such daily prices in at
least two (2) newspapers of general circulation in the Philippines; and post them daily in a
conspicuous place at the principal office of the Fund as well as in all of its branches which are
designated redemption centers.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Fund does not have any underwriter, and has not entered into any underwriting agreement.
There are no shares designated to specified persons. There is no plan to apply for listing in any
exchange the shares of Registrant. Thus, none of the Registrant’s shares are to be allocated to an
exchange and/or to its members.

PRINCIPAL DISTRIBUTOR

SLAMCI serves as the Fund’s Principal Distributor. An annual fee of 1.00% of AUM (estimated at PHP
164,614,987.81) is paid by the Fund for the distribution services of SLAMCI. As principal distributor,
SLAMCI will continuously offer for sale shares of the Fund through its registered representatives

amount for back end sales loads.

Any order for shares may be rejected by SLAMCI. The SEC, Fund, or SLAMCI may suspend the
continuous offering of shares to the general public at any time in response to conditions in the
securities markets or otherwise and may thereafter resume such offering from time to time. Neither
SLAMCI nor the eligible agents are permitted to withhold placing orders to benefit themselves from a
price change.

All proceeds from sale of shares/securities, including the original subscription/payments at the time of
incorporation constituting the paid-in capital of the Fund shall be held by the designated custodian

as four times a year without paying any fees.

Distribution

For a detailed discussion of the Fund’s distribution methods, please refer to the section on “Plan of
Distribution”.

Competition

The Fund principally competes directly with the Unit Investment Trust Funds (“UITFs”) offered by
commercial banks, and other mutual funds in the Philippines in terms of returns and the associated
risks of the return. The Fund’s market strength is its wide distribution network that provides strategic
distribution of Fund shares and the financial stability and reputation of its Investment Company
Adviser, SLAMCI. The Fund intends to compete principally based on the reputation of SLAMCI for
superior investment performance and corporate governance coupled with its distribution network and
superior backroom operations.

The Fund participates in the mutual funds sector which is a sub-sector of the financial services
industry. There are no national geographical boundaries as the nature of the industry and prevailing
technology make it possible for the various players to offer their services to almost any place in the
country.

In terms of net asset value, the group of funds managed by SLAMCI on a consolidated basis is the
second largest in its field. Below are the top three (3) mutual fund companies in the Philippines in

fund industry, have been filed. The most prominent of these are the bills on the proposed Collective
Investment Schemes Law (“CISL”). One of the noteworthy provisions of the CISL bills is the
exemption of mutual fund companies from certain requirements of the Corporation Code as regards
increasing ACS. If passed into law, this would be of possible benefit to the mutual fund companies
which, with their numerous stockholders, find it difficult to obtain the votes of stockholders
representing at least 2/3 of the outstanding capital stock to approve certain corporate actions.
SLAMCI, through PIFA, participates in the hearing and deliberation of the CISL bill. SLAMCI expects
the regulatory environment to improve with the passage of the CISL bill to the benefit of investors.

Employees

The Fund does not employ personnel. Day-to-day operations are carried out by SLAMCI pursuant to
the terms and conditions of the Management Agreement and Distribution Agreement between the
Fund and SLAMCI.

Shareholder’s Privileges

Certain privileges granting reduced sales charge and waivers may be extended by SLAMCI to
qualified investors who will apply for them.

The investor must notify SLAMCI at the time of transaction about his qualification and intention to
avail and apply for specific privileges. Failure to notify SLAMCI ahead of time about his eligibility and
intention to avail will allow SLAMCI to process the transaction subject to normal sales load charges.

SLAMCI reserves the right to approve or deny a shareholder’s application for certain privileges
according to the criteria it has set. These privileges may be revised or discontinued by SLAMCI at
any time.

1. Waiver of Front End Sales Load (Option A) for qualified investors

Front-end zero load may be granted by SLAMCI to former participants in a benefit or retirement
plan, who will convert his mutual fund retirement benefit and contribution into an individual, joint or
ITF account with Sun Life Prosperity Funds. The same benefit may also be granted to
participants of a retirement plan with at least 100 members and PHP5 Million or dollar equivalent
in total asset value or any other requirements or qualifications that may be established by
SLAMCI.

2. Free 10% Back End Redemption

An investor may be entitled to redeem up to 10% of his total shares under Back End without the
application of a redemption fee or DSC subject to certain conditions as established by SLAMCI.
An investor’s free redemption entitlement shall be based on the total number of shares owned
under Option B as of December 31 of the prior calendar year. This privilege may be extended
only to partial redemptions and is not applicable to full redemptions of back-end investments.
Redemption in excess of the allowed 10% will be subject to normal DSC.

25
This one-time privilege per year is not automatic and should be exercised by the investor. Free
redemption entitlement is not cumulative. Unexercised entitlement cannot be carried forward to
future redemptions within the same year or succeeding calendar years.

If redeemed after five (5) years, the investment shall no longer be subject to any redemption fee.

3. Reduced Sales Charge Plan

Combination Privilege

Investors may qualify for a reduced sales load by combining subscriptions to one or more of
the Sun Life Prosperity Funds, under the following conditions:

1. The total AUM of the investor is at least PHP100,000.00 or its dollar equivalent, and this
can be obtained by adding:
 The current subscription made by the investor and “member/s of the immediate
family”, as defined below; and
 The aggregate net asset value of all the outstanding subscriptions (at the close of
the business day preceding the date of the current subscription) made by the
investor and member/s of the immediate family.

2. The total subscription of the investor is at least PHP100,000.00 or its dollar equivalent,
and this can be obtained by adding:
 The current subscription made by the investor and member/s of the immediate
family; and
 The original value of all previous subscriptions, net of redemptions, made by the
investor and member/s of the immediate family.

3. “Member of the immediate family” is defined as:


 Spouse
 Child
 Grandchild
 Parent
 Sibling
 Grandparents

4. The following accounts are not included for purposes of determining whether an investor
qualifies under this privilege:

 Shares or investments held by an investor through a Retirement Plan/Defined


Benefit Plan or other employer-employee sponsored benefit plan
 Shares held through a Trust Account under Institutional Dealers (account held in
the name of the Financial Intermediary on the investor’s behalf)
 Shares held by Corporations or business establishments of the investors.

This privilege is not automatic and should be exercised by the investor. Investors should
provide all necessary information AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE regarding accounts
eligible to be combined under this plan. Otherwise, SLAMCI will not retroact the privilege.
SLAMCI reserves the right to revise or discontinue this privilege at any time.

Letter of Intent

Investors are given the privilege to purchase “A” shares of a Fund over a 12-month period
and receive the same sales charge as if all shares had been purchased at once. An
investor can use a Letter of Intention (LOI) to qualify for reduced sales charges during the
next twelve (12) months.

26
Investors may qualify for this privilege if the resulting total is at least PHP100,000.00 or its
dollar equivalent. The calculation of this amount would include as well the investments
made under the Combination Privilege.

When an investor signs the LOI, SLAMCI agrees to charge the investor a reduced sales
charge. The LOI does not obligate the investor to purchase additional shares. However,
upon failure to comply with the LOI at the end of the 12-month period, SLAMCI will redeem
enough shares equivalent to the additional sales charge to reflect the recalculated amount
reflecting the actual purchase level.

SLAMCI will notify the client under this program at least one (1) month prior to the
expiration of the LOI. SLAMCI reserves the right to revise or discontinue this privilege at
any time.

4. Dividends

The Board of Directors of the Fund has the power to fix and determine the amount to be reserved
or provided for declaration and payment of dividends from the Fund’s unrestricted retained
earnings. The amount of such dividends (either in cash, stock, property or a combination of the
foregoing) will depend on the Fund’s profits, cash flows, capital expenditure, financial condition,
and other factors. The existence of surplus profit arising from the operation of the Fund is needed
before a dividend can be declared. The surplus profits or income must be a bona fide income
founded upon actual earnings or profits. Actual earnings or profits shall be the net income for the
year based on the audited financial statements, adjusted for unrealized items, which are
considered not available for dividend declaration.

Cash dividends and property dividends may be declared by the Board of Directors and no
stockholder approval is required. Stock dividends paid on the Offer Shares are subject to approval
by both the Board of Directors and the stockholders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the
outstanding capital stock of the Fund at a stockholders’ meeting called for such purpose.
.
Under the Corporation Code, Corporations with surplus profit in excess of 100% of its paid-in
capital stock are required to declare dividends (cash or stock) and distribute it to its stockholders.

Dividends so declared will be automatically reinvested in additional shares on behalf of the


shareholders, without sales charges, at the NAVPS on the payment date established for such
dividends. Shareholders may also elect not to have dividends reinvested and receive payment in
cash, net of tax.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Fund has financial assets in the form of cash and fixed income securities, with additional equity
stock securities. It does not own any real property. As prescribed by SEC rules, all of the Fund’s
assets must be held by the custodian banks as enumerated on the inside back cover of this

Top 5 Key Performance Indicators for the year ending 31 December 2013 and the period
ending 31 March 2014.

The performance of a fund is important to its investors. Oftentimes, it is used when making
investment decisions. That is why Key Performance Indicators (KPI), a set of quantifiable measures,
is necessary to gauge its performance in terms of meeting the Fund’s investment objective while
consistently following its investment policy. The following are the top 5 KPIs related to the Fund:

1. Total Return. The performance of a mutual fund is always expressed in terms of its total return,
which is the sum of the change in a fund's net asset value (NAV), its dividends and its capital
gains distributions over a given period of time, net of its expenses.

2. Market Conditions. A fund's true performance potential needs to be evaluated within the context
of the market environment prevailing during the different periods used.

It is most relevant to investors to measure the performance of a fund within a 5-year time frame
as it will most likely cover a mix of market conditions that may be translated into a more reliable
long-term indicator of the fund manager’s investment management abilities.

3. Benchmarks. Benchmarking is one of the most important aspects of a mutual fund's total return
performance. a fund's performance metrics only have meaning if they are compared to
appropriate "guideposts," or benchmarks.

As for the Fund, considering that it is invested in high-quality debt instruments issued by the
Republic of the Philippines and prime Philippine companies,, its performance is measured against
45% PSEi + 45% HSBC Liquid Bond Index + 10% 30-day Special Savings Account (SSA).

The PSEi is the main index of the PSE and is the most watched index among the six PSEi Series.
It measures the relative changes in the free float-adjusted market capitalization of the 30 largest
and most active common stocks listed at the PSE, thereby providing an overview of the market’s
overall condition.

The HSBC Liquid Bond Index is designed as a replicable benchmark tracking the return of fixed-
rate, straight, Philippine peso-denominated liquid bonds issued by the Philippine government.
Among others, to ensure liquidity of an index constituent, it should have a minimum outstanding
amount of Php 3 billion, with a minimum one year remaining maturity.

The following table shows how the Fund performed vis-à-vis the PSEi and the HSBC Liquid Bond
Index.

31
Total Return

Benchmark: 45% PSEi + Sun Life of Canada


45% HSBC Liquid Bond Prosperity Balanced Fund
Index + 30-day SSA
5-Year Return 52.3% 57.4%
3-Year Return 59.7% 70.4%
1-Year Return 19.6% 25.9%
YTD Return* 19.0% 25.4%

*As of 31 March 2014

Benchmark: 45% PSEi + Sun Life of Canada


45% HSBC Liquid Bond Prosperity Balanced Fund
Index + 30-day SSA
5-Year Return 124.2% 103.6%
3-Year Return 34.5% 28.4%
1-Year Return 4.0% -0.7%
YTD Return* 3.8% -1.4%

*As of 31 March 2014

The benchmark may be changed by the Fund’s Board of Directors from time to time.

4. Peer Comparisons. Mutual funds are also compared to their peers, or peer groups, and relevant
fund categories. For example, it is common for investment research materials to compare a bond
fund, like the Fund, to funds similar in nature (peers or peer group). While this information is
made available to the Fund’s investors, the same may be found in the website of the PIFA at
www.pifa.com.ph.

5. Asset Size. Open-ended mutual funds grow their asset size in two ways:

i. Increase in the value of the underlying assets as a result of the strong performance of equity
securities and/or bonds in the fund's portfolio. When the underlying assets in a portfolio
increase in value, the fund's asset size increases.
ii. The inflow of investors' money. This is why a fund's asset size will continue to grow even if it
has a negative return.

The increase in a fund’s asset size signifies solid fund management skills which, combined with
favorable market conditions backed by a strong economic outlook, illustrates how effectively a
fund manager has performed and the extent to which value has been added through active
management.

The second indicates investor confidence in the fund manager, the Fund, or both.

Most analysts check whether the performance of a mutual fund is attributable to personnel who
have since left the fund. While there is no magic number when it comes to fund manager tenure, it
should provide some investor comfort to know that with respect to the Fund, the Fund Manager
and the Fund’s top management have been with the Fund for at least five (5) years. Furthermore,
SLOCPI having been in the business for decades combined with a record of consistent strong
performance indicates a stability and resilience capable of withstanding the different stages of the
business cycle.
