Monthly Report 29 September 2017

DESCRIPTION OF NAV BASIS

Net Asset Value is calculated according to regulations currently applying to Fondul Proprietatea, approved by Local Regulator (CNVM Regulation no. 4/2010 as subsequently amended). Where there is trading activity in the last 30 trading days, shares listed on a regulated market are valued at closing price. The shares admitted to trading on AeRO market (alternative trading system) are valued based on the Reference Price method, respectively the average price. Where there is no trading activity in the 30 trading day period for listed investments, the unlisted valuation approach applies. Investments in unlisted companies are valued using either shareholders' equity value per latest annual financial statements (proportionally with the stake held) or by using valuation methods in accordance with International Valuation Standards (fair value principles). Any holding in companies going through an insolvency or reorganization procedure is valued either at zero or at the value provided by an independent valuer, using valuation methods in accordance with International Valuation Standards (fair value principles). Any holding in companies under judicial liquidation procedure, or any other liquidation procedures, as well as in companies under temporary or final suspension of operation, is valued at zero until the procedure is finalised.

Starting with the NAV report as at 29 January 2016, the accounting records under IFRS are used for the computation of NAV non-portfolio items.

Important Information and Disclaimers

The Investment Manager for the Fund reserves the right to withhold release of information with respect to holdings that would otherwise be included in the Top 10 Holdings list where the protection of such information is in the best interests of the Fund.

Each total return for a single period is calculated using the following formula: the NAV per share as at the end of the period plus any cash distribution during the period, dividing the resulting sum by the official NAV per share at the beginning of the period. The resulting single period total returns are geometrically linked to result in the overall total return.
