Raiffeisen Euro Bonds Page 4 PART I MANAGEMENT COMPANY 1. Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft m.b.H., Vienna Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft m.b.H. (“the management company”) is a management company within the meaning of § 1 (1) item 13 of the Austrian Banking Act (BWG) in combination with § 6 (2) of the 2011 Austrian Investment Fund Act (InvFG) and an alternative investment fund manager within the meaning of the Austrian Alternative Investment Fund Managers Act (AIFMG). The management company is licensed by the Austrian Financial Market Authority. The company was established in December 1985 for an indefinite duration.
It has been established as a limited-liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, Ges.m.b.H.) and has been entered in the companies register of Vienna Commercial Court under the companies register number 83517w. The company’s registered office and head office are in Vienna. Its business address is Mooslackengasse 12, A-1190 Vienna, Austria. The company is domiciled in the same member state as the investment fund. 2. Investment funds managed by the company Please refer to item 6 of the appendix to the prospectus for this information. 3. Management Dieter AIGNER, Rainer SCHNABL, Michal KUSTRA 4.
Supervisory board Please refer to item 3 of the appendix to the prospectus for information on the composition of the supervisory board. 5. Other main positions of the members of management and the supervisory board Please refer to item 4 of the appendix to the prospectus for this information. 6. Share capital The company’s share capital amounts to EUR 15 million and is fully paid in. 7. Remuneration policy Remuneration policy details pursuant to § 131 (4) item 12 b InvFG  The remuneration guidelines (“guidelines”) issued by Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung serve as a binding framework for fulfillment of the remuneration policy and practice requirements stipulated in §§ 17a to 17c of the Austrian Investment Fund Act (InvFG), § 11 of the Austrian Alternative Investment Fund Managers Act (AIFMG) and Enclosure 2 to § 11 AIFMG.
In accordance with the statutory requirements these guidelines include, in particular, detailed provisions on general remuneration policy including rules for the appropriate determination of fixed and variable salaries and voluntary pension benefits, the structure of the “bonus pool” and measurement of performance, rules for the allocation and payment of variable remuneration and for performance assessment and also special rules applicable for employees with supervisory functions. The guidelines also include stipulations regarding the selection of “risk personnel” within the meaning of § 17a InvFG and § 11 AIFMG (“risk personnel”) as well as specific rules regarding their remuneration, in particular their acquisition of entitlements and the procedure for payment and also risk adjustment for variable remuneration.
 These guidelines ensure that Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung’s remuneration policy and practice are consistent with and conducive to solid and effective risk management and do not encourage it to enter into risks which are not compatible with the risk profiles or the fund regulations of the funds under its management and do not prevent Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung from duly acting in the best interests of the fund.  This remuneration policy is compatible with the business strategy, goals, values and interests of Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung and the funds under its management and also the unitholders in such funds and includes measures to avoid conflicts of interest.
 Fixed and variable remuneration components are determined on the basis of these guidelines.  Risk personnel are determined in accordance with the applicable statutory requirements for each financial year. The variable remuneration allocated to risk personnel for a given financial year is not paid out in full. Instead, some of this remuneration is set aside in accordance with the requirements of § 17c InvFG and Enclosure 2 to § 11 AIFMG for a period which is suitable in view of the holding period which has been recommended for the unitholders in the fund in question and which appropriately reflects the nature of the risks to which this fund is exposed.
On the basis of applicable regulatory requirements, some of the variable remuneration for risk personnel is provided in the form of instruments subject to a suitable policy of deferral which is intended to align the interests of the management company and the funds under its management with the interests of the unitholders. The variable remuneration of risk personnel – including the share set aside – will only be paid out or earned if this is viable in view of the overall financial position of Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung and justified on the basis of the performance of the relevant department, the fund and the
Raiffeisen Euro Bonds Page 5 relevant person. Otherwise, these guidelines and the related penalty and repayment agreements provide for a reduction of this variable remuneration or even its outright cancellation.  The supervisory board of Raiffeisen Kapitalanlage-Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung is responsible for resolving the general principles of the remuneration policy (remuneration guidelines) prepared by the supervisory board’s remuneration committee.  For details of the current remuneration policy – including a description of the procedure for calculation of remuneration and other benefits – and the identity of the persons responsible for the allocation of remuneration and other benefits – including the makeup of the remuneration committee – please refer to the management company’s website, www.rcm.at (About Us menu, Corporate Governance submenu).
Upon request, a paper version will be provided free-of-charge. 8. The management company has transferred the following activities to third parties Transfer of tasks to companies incorporated in the Raiffeisen Banking Group For increased efficiency within the Raiffeisen Banking Group, activities of the management company will be/have been transferred to Raiffeisen Banking Group affiliates.

Raiffeisen Euro Bonds Page 6 PART II INVESTMENT FUND 1. Name of the investment fund The investment fund bears the name Raiffeisen Euro Bonds and is an investment fund pursuant to § 2 InvFG (UCITS) and complies with the Directive 2009/65/EC (UCITS Directive). 2. Date of establishment and duration, where limited Raiffeisen Euro Bonds was launched on December 16, 1996 for an indefinite duration. 3. Office where the fund regulations and the periodic reports may be obtained Please refer to the cover page of the prospectus for this information. 3 a. Sales restriction The investment fund has not been registered in the USA in accordance with applicable legal regulations.
Units of the investment fund are not therefore intended for sale in the USA or for sale to US citizens (or permanent US residents) or to partnerships or corporations established under US law.
The investment fund may only be publicly sold in countries where it is licensed for public sale. 3 b. “FATCA” status Within the scope of compliance with US tax regulations under FATCA (“Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act”), the fund has been registered with the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The management company has been notified of the fund’s designated GIIN (“Global Intermediary Identification Number”) and will be pleased to notify investors of this upon request.
The fund is thus “deemed compliant” (i.e. FATCA-compliant) within the meaning of the above provisions. 4. Brief details of tax regulations applicable for the investment fund which are of significance for unitholders.
Notice on withholding-tax liability for income and capital gains earned by unitholders from the investment fund Tax treatment for investors with unlimited tax liability in Austria Note: The following tax comments reflect the current understanding of the legal situation. They are intended for persons with unlimited income or corporate income tax liability in Austria. The tax effects also depend on the investor’s personal circumstances and may be subject to future changes. Accordingly, the tax assessment may change due to legislation, court rulings or other legal acts of the fiscal administration.
On these grounds, before purchasing or selling fund units we recommend that investors should consult a tax advisor and obtain advice on the consequences for their personal tax situation.
The annual fund reports contain details of the taxation of fund distributions and distribution-equivalent income. The following remarks are mainly applicable for security deposit accounts held in Austria and for investors with unlimited tax liability in Austria. Calculation of income at fund level A fund’s income mainly comprises ordinary and extraordinary income. Ordinary income largely consists of interest and dividends. The fund’s expenses (e.g. management fees, auditor’s costs) will reduce its ordinary income.
Extraordinary income comprises profits from the realization of securities (mainly equities, debt securities and the related derivatives), offset against realized losses.
Loss carryovers and a possible expenditure overhang will also reduce the fund’s current profits. A possible loss overhang may be offset against the fund’s ordinary income. Losses which have not been offset may be carried forward for an indefinite period.
