Investment Manager For example: if the NAV performance is 6%, the Performance Fee will be 10% of the NAV Performance exceeding 2% i.e. (6%2%)*10%=0,4%; if the NAV Performance is 9%, the Performance Fee will be 10% of the NAV Performance between 2% and 7% plus 15% of the NAV Performance exceeding 7%, i.e. [(7%-2%)*10%]+[(9%-7%)*15%]=0,5%+0,3%=0,8%. The Management Company has appointed PHARUS MANAGEMENT S.A., a Swiss based asset management company with registered office at Via Pollini 7, CH 6850 Mendrisio (Switzerland), duly enrolled at the Register of the Management Company held by FINMA, to act as Investment Manager of the Sub-Fund. PHARUS MANAGEMENT S.A. is in its turn authorised to appoint sub-investment managers or advisory companies, at its own expenses. The performance fee is calculated on the basis of the NAV after deduction of all expenses, liabilities, and management fees (but not performance fee), and is adjusted to take account of all subscriptions and redemptions. For both classes, the Investment Manager is entitled to receive from the Sub-Fund an investment management fee of 1,4 % per year (with a minimum fee of EUR 50.000 per year) calculated and accrued every Valuation Day on the total net value of the sub-fund and drawn from the availability of the latter the first trading day of the following month. The performance fee is equal to the out performance of the NAV per share multiplied by the number of shares in circulation during the calculation period. No performance fee will be due if the NAV per share before performance fee turns out to be below the Reference NAV for the calculation period in question. Part of these fees will serve as remuneration for the Investment Advisor. The Reference NAV is defined as the greater of the following two figures: The latest NAV per share after deduction of performance fee during the previous calculation period; and - The latest Reference NAV. - The Reference NAV for the first period is the initial NAV per share. Investment Advisor The Investment Manager has appointed Wise Consultants SA, a Swiss company with registered office at avenue Industrielle 4-6, CH1227 Carouge (Switzerland), as Investment Advisor to give recommendations to the Investment Manager for the manner in which the cash raised by the Sub-Fund might be invested or divested and provide information and documentation relating to the market contemplated by the investment policy of the SubFund. Provision will be made for this performance fee on each Valuation Day. If the NAV per share decreases during the calculation period, the provisions made in respect of the performance fee will be reduced accordingly. If these provisions fall to zero, no performance fee will be payable. PERFORMANCE FEE If shares are redeemed on a date other than that on which a performance fee is paid while provision has been made for performance fees, the performance fees for which provision has been made and which are attributable to the shares redeemed will be paid at the end of the period even if provision for performance fees is no longer made at that date. Gains which have not been realised may be taken into account in the calculation and payment of performance fees. Performance Fee In addition to the Investment Manager Fees, the Investment Manager shall be entitled to receive from the Sub-Fund a Performance Fee which is calculated as follows: The Investment Manager will receive a performance fee, paid annually, based on the net asset value (NAV), equivalent to: - 10 % of the performance of the NAV per share exceeding the Reference NAV (as defined hereafter) with a hurdle rate equal to 2% p.a. (and lower than 7% p.a.) - 15 % of the performance of the NAV per share exceeding the Reference NAV (as defined hereafter) with a hurdle rate equal to 7% p.a.. 20 KITE FUND SICAV PERFORMANCE FEE (continued) ANNUAL TAX In case of subscription, the performance fee calculation is adjusted to avoid that this subscription impacts the amount of performance fee accruals. To perform this adjustment, the performance of the NAV per share against the Reference NAV until the subscription date is not taken into account in the performance fee calculation. This adjustment amount is equal to the product of the number of subscribed shares by the positive difference between the subscription price and the Reference NAV adjusted by the hurdle at the date of the subscription. This cumulated adjustment amount is used in the performance fee calculation until the end of the relevant period and is adjusted in case of subsequent redemptions during the period. The Fund is subject to an annual tax in Luxembourg corresponding to 0.05% of the value of the net assets. This tax is payable quarterly on the basis of the Fund's net assets calculated at the end of the relevant quarter.
