GLOBAL SUSTAINABLE is an integrated financial product, on the basis the Global Sustainable Index takes intoconsideration non-financial factors.

To be eligible for inclusion in the index at each annual evaluation, a security must meet certain eligibility criteria,including the following:

• it must be a member of the Nasdaq Developed Markets Index (but excludes securities listed on an exchangein Australia);

• it must satisfy certain minimum market capitalisation and liquidity requirements; and

• it must be identified by the Responsible Investment Committee (described below) as a “Climate Leader” thathas also passed certain eligibility screens designed to exclude companies with direct or significant exposureto the fossil fuel industry or that are engaged in other activities deemed inconsistent with responsibleinvestment considerations (as further outlined in “Screening criteria” below).

Screening criteria

Climate Leaders are companies that have a carbon efficiency that places them in the top one-third of companies intheir industry or are otherwise superior performers in relation to “Scope 4” carbon emissions (also known as “avoidedemissions”).

• Carbon efficiency: Carbon efficiency is determined by calculating the greenhouse gas emissions from acompany’s operations, fuel use and supply chain, divided by its annual revenue.

• Scope 4 (or avoided) carbon emissions: Superior performers in relation to Scope 4 carbon emissions arethose companies involved in commercialising technologies that have net positive climate benefits throughsubstantial greenhouse gas emissions reductions or sequestration. Companies in this category typicallyinclude those with primary business activities in renewable energy, energy efficiency, sustainable agricultureand land use, and carbon sequestration.

A fossil fuel screen is applied to the universe of Climate Leaders, which removes companies with any directinvolvement in the fossil fuel industry (companies which have fossil fuel reserves, fossil fuel infrastructure, or areinvolved in the mining, extraction, or burning of fossil fuels), as well as companies with material indirect exposure(companies involved in the provision of products, services or finance which is specific to, and significant for, the fossilfuel industry; and those with particularly high use of fossil fuels - except where more than 50% of company revenue isderived from renewable energy, resource efficiency, environmental solutions or energy efficiency products andservices).

The remaining universe is screened to remove companies which are exposed to activities considered to carrysignificant negative environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks (subject to certain materiality thresholds thatare described in the actual index methodology document).
