■Investment Risks Associated with Financial Products
The financial instrument transactions conducted on behalf of the client shall include investments made in shares, bonds
with new share warrants, bonds issued by public corporations, and other instruments (including cases where investments
are made via investment trusts and through Limited Partnerships). Consequently, the prices of shares and otherinvestments may decline as a result of the effects of domestic and overseas economic variables and politicalcircumstances, fluctuations in interest rates, and changes in the performance and financial standing of the issuing entities,
resulting in investment losses.
Financial products may also make use of derivative transactions. Such transactions utilize leverage in excess of themargin amount, and if prices change as a result of the fluctuations in the securities and indexes that serve as theunderlying assets, it is possible that losses in excess of the amount of the margin deposited will be incurred. Also, theleverage rates vary continuously as a result of changes in investment policies and domestic and overseas market
environments, and consequently they cannot be specified in advance. During the terms of derivative transactions,
Nomura Asset Management shall deposit margins taken from the contract assets in amounts that it determines to besuitable based on calculations performed by the securities companies with which the orders are placed.
■Costs Associated with Financial Products (Fees and Other Costs)
All information in this report is intended for information purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation of an offer tobuy any investment product nor to enter into an investment advisory agreement with Nomura Asset Management to anypersons. The following fees and expenses are charged to investors of our investment products. We can only provide ageneral description of our fee calculation formula here, as fee rates will vary depending on the specific productcharacteristics or the specific contract with each of our clients.
As a consideration of our investment advisory services, fees equivalent to the sum of the assets under contract multipliedby the agreed-upon percentage fee rate (%) will be charged depending on the length of the contract. [Calculation formula]

Nomura Asset Management may, based on its discretionary investment decisions, purchase investment trust products
to be included in a portfolio under a discretionary investment contract. In such cases, expenses such as investment trust
management fees, sales company and management company fees, and fees charged when converting investment trusts
to cash would incur. In cases where investment trust products are issued by our own company or one of our groupcompanies, the investment advisory fees may be adjusted to avoid double payment of management fees. The adjustment
calculation methods are specified in each contract. Total investment advisory fees paid by the client shall amount toinvestment advisory fees less the investment management fees associated with the purchased investment trust products.
Based on mutual agreement, we may adopt a performance-based fee structure or a combination of performance-based
fee structure and the flat fee structure mentioned above. We are unable to provide detailed calculation or the maximum
fee for performance-based fee structure as the actual advisory fee varies depending on the investment performance ofthe relevant strategy, and the agreed terms with each client. Performance-based fee structures will be negotiatedindividually between each client and Nomura Asset Management.
Separate from the investment advisory fees, securities trading consignment fees and expenses related to the custody ofsecurities will also be deducted from the contracted assets.
