Investors can choose the following allocations between the Growth Portion and Income Portion.

Optimiser Plus Component	Growth Portion Allocation	Income Portion Allocation
Balanced	50%	50%
Income	25%	75%
Growth	75%	25%
Income Only	0%	100%
Growth Only	100%	0%

The Growth Portions are linked to the performance of three (3) multi-asset “Investment Profiles”, each of which has a specific allocation to Equities, Property and Commodities:

Investment Profile	Equities Allocation	Property Allocation	Commodities Allocation
Equities biased	60%	20%	20%
Property biased	20%	60%	20%
Commodities biased	20%	20%	60%

The multi-asset Investment Profiles provide exposure to three (3) asset classes representing Equities, Property and Commodities (the ‘Asset Classes’). The performance of each Asset Class will be based on an equally-weighted basket of Reference Assets with an averaging feature which captures the performance of each Reference Asset at the four Observation Dates:

Equities	Property	Commodities
EURO STOXX 50	FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Real Estate Index	S&P GSCI Energy Index
S&P BRIC 40		S&P GSCI Precious Metals Index
Nikkei 225		S&P GSCI Agriculture Excess Return Index
S&P 500

At each Quarter End Date, the Issuer will calculate the Investor’s entitlement to the Variable Coupon of up to 16% per annum (i.e. 4% per quarter) in relation to the Income Portion of each Optimiser Plus held by the Investor. The Variable Coupon is made up of the Accrual Coupon of up to 8% per annum and the Step-Up Coupon of up to 8% per annum.

The income portion is linked to the relative performance of two fixed income indices. The 5 year Swap Rate against the 2 year Swap Rate.

A distinct feature of the combined Growth and Income Portions when viewed historically is the low level of correlation between their returns. Consequently the Income/Growth Portion allocation produces diversification for the investor, for where the investor chooses to allocate some of the Optimiser Plus to the income portion and some to the Growth Portion.
