M&A Climate in 2011

DRIVERS /CATALYSTS

Savage cost cutting, capital raising and debt refinancing - strong enough balance sheets to beopportunistic if a deal is presented

Attractive price of assets

Buying growth through purchases may also be more attractive than trying to expand currentbusinesses organically - given concerns about how fast the economies of Europe and theUnited States will recover this year.

CEOs are generally looking for bolt-on acquisitions, not massive deals that transform theirbusinesses.

Growing pressure on firms to focus on core activities and spin off the rest

Low interest rates

Due to lower equity market ratings and the constraints on credit greater proportion of stockto be used for M&A rather than cash in 2010

Need for a crystal clear strategic rationale

More hostile bids

Buyers with strong balance sheets likely to take advantage to snap up rivals at bargain prices

Corporate activity will be focused on cost-cutting rather than the bull-market justification ofbuying growth

“Bad” M&A is over: less leverage, fewer LBOs

Creativity in sourcing cash and managing volatility in stock deals will be key differentiatingfactors

Access to credit

Market volatility

Antitrust

Lack of CEO confidence in some industries

Page 8: Diva Arbitrage Fund Presentation

Pre Event Driven Portfolio

In our target universe of Europe and North Americathere are 1000 companies with a market capitalizationbetween $1 and $10 billion.

From this group we continuously work to extract 200-300 companies, the figure depends on market conditions,most likely to become targets in the medium-term.

The companies that are extracted are chosen bydifferent criteria such as that it is operating in a highlyconsolidating market or that the company is a close peerto a recently announced target. Once a company has beenacquired it is taken off the list.

The radar has proven very efficient in identifyingpotential targets. As a second level in the investmentprocess, to further narrow down this group, we conduct adaily analysis where we check for different quantitativecharacteristics such as volatility, abnormal returns, etc.

The aim is to identify market movements in priceworthy companies with a strong business model.

From a target universe of 1000 companies we narrow itdown to 15-30 positions in our portfolio

Page 9: Diva Arbitrage Fund Presentation

Pre Event Driven Portfolio

In addition to our quantitative tool we also conduct a fundamental analysis of potential targets as a 3-stepinvestment process:

First, we try to identify the most likely active sectors. Catalysts are the level of cash, regulatory changes or strategicissues (as aging product/patent portfolios for the pharmaceutical industry). Currently there are 3 hot sectors thatwe consider being especially interesting. These are healthcare, energy and technology.

Second, we start searching for buyers that are companies with plenty of cash and a need for external strategicgrowth.

Third, once these likely buyers are identified we look at which companies could be these acquirers most natural fit.Which companies could offer synergies and cost savings and/or unlock other value that could be interesting for thebuyer and its CEO?

Merger Arbitrage Portfolio

In our merger arbitrage portfolio we invest primarily in deals where the target has a marketcapitalization of at least $500 million and is located in either Europe or North America.

We have a clear bias towards high quality transactions which we define as those where clearsynergies are created, low financing and regulatory risk as well as that most often there is a largecompany acquiring a smaller one.

”Sure Thing”

Transactions wherethe market hasreached a consensusfor the value and therisk

Very low risk

”Chinese Deals”

High risk transactionswith regulatoryuncertainties and/orquestionable synergies

Different Merger Arbitrage Approaches

High Quality

Good transactionswith clear synergiesbut with contrarianviews by marketplayers of value andrisk

Consensual and clustered transactions as well as deals with a great part ofpolitical and other unpredictable risks

Positions in the Merger Arbitrage portfolio are hedged when the acquirer ispaying, partly or fully, through stock for stock by going short in the acquirer inthe same amount of shares that we will receive when the deal close

Portfolio Allocation

The structure of the portfolio and the allocation between the two strategies Pre-Event Driven and MergerArbitrage depends mainly on the level of volatility in the market. Higher market volatility results in higher riskswhich gives larger spreads and therefore makes the Merger Arbitrage strategy more profitable than the EventDriven.

As visualized below there is a clear correlation between the structure of our portfolio and the market volatility. Inthe end of 2008 when volatility – in terms of the VIX index – was above 40 more than 90% of our portfolio wasinvested in the Merger Arbitrage strategy.

(1) As at 1/6/2011. www.b-dreyfus.com

Page 37: Diva Arbitrage Fund Presentation

1. Merger Arbitrage – Announced Deals

The Merger Arbitrage strategy revolves around acquiring shares in listed companies subject to mergers and acquisitions. The objective is to capture the value gap (spread) between the share price after the announcement and the price offered by the acquirer.

Different Merger Arbitrage Approaches

" Sure Thing "

Transactions whose probability of success is seen as virtually certain: the market has reached a consensus for the value and the risk

Very low risk

" Doubtful "

Transactions whose probability of success is seen as doubtful

High risk transactions with regulatory uncertainties and/or questionable

synergies

" Probable "

Transactions whose probability of success is seen as probable

Transactions with clear synergies but with contrarian views by market players of value and risk

Preference: Strategic deals with clear synergies, low financing and regulatory risks, where both target and acquirer have strong business models and with contrarian views by market players of value and risk

PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION

2

Trading Policy: Usually we increase positions when spreads widen – assuming our analysis has not changed

Hedging: Hedging is used in stock transactions by short selling the amount of the acquirers shares we will receive when deal close

Liquidity: Over 80% of the portfolio is invested in companies with a market capitalization of at least $500 million.

Tests: Reward/risk ratio – Focus on high reward/risk ratio deals. Overlapping deal closure dates to optimize the portfolio’s events calendar

Monitoring : Keep track of portfolio events Frequent use of trading limits Continuous review the investment thesis

Page 38: Diva Arbitrage Fund Presentation

3

The Pre-Event strategy consists of identifying potential M&A targets through a rigorous investment process

Investment Process Comments

Target Universe 1000 companies of appropriate size in North America and Europe

Hot Sectors

100 potential targets within the sectors identified for a potentially high degree of M&A activity

Under Our Radar 300-400 potential targets under daily

monitoring

Identifying Buyers Identification of interested buyers with

cash and a need for external growth

Portfolio

Hedged against market risk Mainly companies whose market capitalization is between 1 and 10 billion euros

Investment criteria: Companies listed in Western Europe and North America, usually with a $ 1 to $10 billions market capitalization

The selection criteria are both fundamental (consolidation within an industry, strategic or regulatory pressure, similar to a target of recent mergers and acquisitions ...) and technical (abnormal returns, unusual volume / volatility)

Currently we anticipate strong M&A in the pharmaceutical, energy and technology industries among others,

Identification of potential buyers is based on criteria such as: Level of cash on balance sheet, need for external strategic

growth, etc. Companies that could generate synergies and cost savings

and/or unlock other value

Trading Policy: the size of the position normally starts small and is built up when the stock price increases, which we consider as an indication that the market aligns with our scenario.

Hedging: the positions are covered by short selling index futures to obtain a zero beta adjustment (ie, "market neutral"). Liquidity: over 80% of the portfolio is invested in companies with a market capitalization of at least $500 million. Risk Controls: stop-losses at 10% downside of the traded pair (long equity – short index)

2. Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage – Anticipated Deals

Page 39: Diva Arbitrage Fund Presentation

Examples of potential investments based on current M&A themes

Investment Theme Potential Targets

2. Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage – Anticipated Deals

Increasing exposure to emerging markets

Baby Oil being acquired by emerging players

Underexploited iconic brands

Big Pharma facing patent expiration and looking to plug their pipeline holes

Page 40: Diva Arbitrage Fund Presentation

Investment Strategy

5

The investment strategy revolves around two pillars: Announced Merger Arbitrage (announced deals) and Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage (anticipated deals)

Portfolio Structure Portfolio Allocation

1. Announced Merger Arbitrage

Announced M&A Deals

2. Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage

Identify potential M&A targets

40 to 50 stocks listed in Western Europe and North America Market fluctuations systematically covered (Market-Neutral)

The structure of the portfolio and the allocation between the two strategies Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage and Announced Merger Arbitrage depends mainly on the level of volatility in the market. Higher market volatility results in higher risks which gives larger spreads and therefore makes the Announced Merger Arbitrage strategy more profitable than the Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage .

As illustrated below there is a clear correlation between the structure of our portfolio and the market volatility. At the end of 2008 when volatility – in terms of the VIX (1) index – was above 40 more than 90% of the portfolio (managed by the same team, applying the same strategy) was invested in the Merger Arbitrage strategy.

Historical Portfolio Allocation - (managed by the same team, applying the same strategy)

To achieve the target return and volatility, the allocation between the two strategies is adjusted depending on the economic cycle and market conditions

(1) An indicator of U.S. financial markets volatility. The index is calculated by averaging the volatilities on put and call options on the S&P500.

Diva Synergy (Ucits) Risk Profile

9

Risk of capital loss: Investors are warned that the capital they invest is not guaranteed and therefore they may not receive back the full amount invested.

Risk of non-occurrence of the announced or anticipated merger or acquisition: Merger arbitrage consists of taking advantage of the difference between the current stock price of the target and the price offered by the acquirer (the spread). If the transaction is completed, a gain consisting of the spread is realised. However, if the transaction fails to complete, a loss is likely to be incurred as the anticipated control premium usually paid to the target shareholders by the acquirer is lost.

Risk of not achieving the Fund’s objective - discretionary management risk: The Fund relies on the managers’ ability to assess the value of companies and determine the outcome of mergers and acquisitions situations. There is a risk that the Fund may not be invested in the best-performing situations at any given time.

Counterparty risk: In the case of products traded over the counter (OTC), the Fund may have to bear additional risks related to counterparty exposure. This risk measure the losses incurred by the Fund in respect of commitments entered into with a counterparty. The default of the counterparty may cause a significant decrease in the net asset value (NAV) of the Fund. In general, these transactions are entered into in line with regulatory requirements such as collaterals and margin calls.

Foreign exchange risk: The Fund buys and sells securities denominated in currencies other than the Fund’s currency. In spite of its policy of hedging the invested assets, the Fund’s net asset value may be adversely impacted if changes in the foreign exchange markets negatively affect gains generated over two hedging periods.

Interest rate risk: The Fund may be up to 100% exposed to short-term interest rate risk via debt securities and money market instruments. Interest rate risk is the risk associated with a rise in interest rates, which can trigger a fall in the price of certain debt securities and money market instruments, and thereby a fall in the net asset value of the Fund

Credit risk: The risk of a downgrade in the credit rating of an issuer, or of that issuer defaulting. The value of the debt instruments in which the Fund is invested may fall, which could result in a fall in the net asset value.

High-yield risk: There is also a high-yield risk arising from the fact that the Fund may invest in high-yield bonds (rated at least B- by Standard & Poor’s or Caa1 by Moody’s). These securities carry a significant risk of default.

The Fund may be exposed to the following main types of risks. Any of these risks may cause a significant fall of the Fund’s Net Asset Value.

M&A Market in 2011

10

Positive market outlook for mergers and acquisitions (+55% in Q1 2011)

DRIVERS / CATALYSTS

Savage cost cutting, capital raising and debt refinancing , strong balance sheets – to be opportunistic if a deal is presented Attractive price of assets Buying growth through acquisition may be more attractive than organic growth - given concerns about the pace of

recovery of Europe and the United States Growing pressure on firms to focus on core activities and spin off the rest Low interest rates

CONSTRAINTS

Access to credit Market volatility Antitrust

CONSEQUENCES

Due to lower equity market ratings and the constraints on credit greater proportion of stock to be used for M&A rather than cash

Need for a crystal clear strategic rationale More hostile bids Buyers with strong balance sheets likely to take advantage to snap up rivals at bargain prices Corporate activity will be focused on cost-cutting rather than the bull-market justification of buying growth Creativity in structuring transactions and managing volatility in stock deals will be key differentiating factors

Eye care is a growing market because of significant needs of an aging population

Funding: No risk (Oracle has $13 billion in cash)

Antitrust: The deal is passed May 27 in second request to the United States. The risk focuses on the timing of review (the market is quite fragmented and dominated by Medidata)

Antitrust: HSR received May 3 Shareholder vote Mariner: very low risk given

the premium (45%) and recent events MAC clause: very restrictive definition,

excludes any particular event or change in legislation affecting the industry

According to the Swiss stock exchange regulations it only requires the approval of a majority shareholder (Nestle up to vote)

Legally, Novartis is not forced to improve its offer, despite the different treatment of minorities

However, we believe that Novartis will eventually raise its offer (employees hold 6% of capital + reputational risk)

Investment Strategy

3

The investment strategy revolves around two pillars: Announced Merger Arbitrage (announced deals) and Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage (anticipated deals)

Portfolio Structure Portfolio Allocation

1. Announced Merger Arbitrage

Announced M&A Deals

2. Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage

Identify potential M&A targets

40 to 50 stocks listed in Western Europe and North America Market fluctuations systematically covered (Market-Neutral)

The structure of the portfolio and the allocation between the two strategies Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage and Announced Merger Arbitrage depends mainly on the level of volatility in the market. Higher market volatility results in higher risks which gives larger spreads and therefore makes the Announced Merger Arbitrage strategy more profitable than the Pre-Event Merger Arbitrage .

As illustrated below there is a clear correlation between the structure of our portfolio and the market volatility. At the end of 2008 when volatility – in terms of the VIX index – was above 40 more than 90% of the portfolio (managed by the same team, applying the same strategy) was invested in the Merger Arbitrage strategy.

Historical Portfolio Allocation

To achieve the target return and volatility, the allocation between the two strategies is adjusted depending on the economic cycle and market conditions

Merger Arbitrage – Announced Deals

The Merger Arbitrage strategy revolves around acquiring shares in listed companies subject to mergers and acquisitions. The objective is to capture the value gap (spread) between the share price after the announcement and the price offered by the acquirer.

Different Merger Arbitrage Approaches

" Sure Thing "

Transactions whose probability of success is seen as virtually certain: the market has reached a consensus for the value and the risk

Very low risk

" Doubtful "

Transactions whose probability of success is seen as doubtful

High risk transactions with regulatory uncertainties and/or questionable

synergies

" Probable "

Transactions whose probability of success is seen as probable

Transactions with clear synergies but with contrarian views by market players of value and risk

Preference: Strategic deals with clear synergies, low financing and regulatory risks, where both target and acquirer have strong business models and with contrarian views by market players of value and risk

PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION

5

Trading Policy: Usually we increase positions when spreads widen – assuming our analysis has not changed

Hedging: Hedging is used in stock transactions by short selling the amount of the acquirers shares we will receive when deal close

Liquidity: Over 80% of the portfolio is invested in companies with a market capitalization of at least $500 million.

Tests: Reward/risk ratio – Focus on high reward/risk ratio deals. Overlapping deal closure dates to optimize the portfolio’s events calendar

Monitoring : Keep track of portfolio events Frequent use of trading limits Continuous review the investment thesis

Page 59: Diva Arbitrage Fund Presentation

Merger Arbitrage – Trading Strategies

The arbitrage spread evolves as a result of each transaction’s unique features. However, its evolution broadly belongs to one of 5 categories, each creating spot-on investment opportunities.

Spread Evolution Deal Description

July 21st 2011: Medco agrees to be acquired by Express Scripts for approx. $30bn in cash and stock.

Medco is a healthcare company which provides clinically-driven services for private and public employers in the United-States and internationally.

Express Scripts is a provider of pharmacy benefit management (PBM) services in North America.

Conditions: Majority approval of both companies’ shareholders Successful antitrust application (HSR review)

According to the Merger Agreement, no compensation was due by any party to the other one in case the deal failed to obtained antitrust approval.

The antitrust approval immediately became the deal’s main challenge.

Investment Rationale & Antitrust Case

Trading Strategy

On August 29th, the buyer entered into a credit agreement with Credit Suisse and Citibank for avoir $20bn, hence securing the whole transaction financing.

Although many different parties expressed concerns over the competitive prospect of the transaction, we remained convinced that the parties would receive approval: Arguments against cited a possible raise in prices since the combined group would represent

a 40% market share. We believe in the cost efficiency theory: the combined group would be perfectly positionned

to realized significant cost synergies and therefore offer lower prices. As anticipated, the deal receive antitrust approval on April 2nd and close shortly after.

Xs on the graph represent moments where we added to our long/shot position.

We initiated a very small position soon after the announcement of the transaction.

We then added to our position: In August 2011: spread widening due to

market volatility Late september: after reception of HSR 2nd

request We regularly added to the long/short

position afterwards, as market confirmed our thesis and the spread tightened.

The position gained approx. 15% or above 20% annualized.

Deal Rationale

The logic behind the transaction was the realization of significant cost savings and synergies, greater efficiency in the supply chain and optimizing the response to the changing healthcare environment. Shareholders approval was never an issue as it would benefit both companies.

The Pre-Event strategy consists of identifying potential M&A targets through a rigorous investment process

Investment Process Comments

Target Universe 1000 companies of appropriate size in North America and Europe

Hot Sectors

100 potential targets within the sectors identified for a potentially high degree of M&A activity

Under Our Radar 300-400 potential targets under daily

monitoring

Identifying Buyers Identification of interested buyers with

cash and a need for external growth

Portfolio

Hedged against market risk Mainly companies whose market capitalization is between 1 and 10 billion euros

Investment criteria: Companies listed in Western Europe and North America, usually with a $ 1 to $10 billions market capitalization

The selection criteria are both fundamental (consolidation within an industry, strategic or regulatory pressure, similar to a target of recent mergers and acquisitions ...) and technical (abnormal returns, unusual volume / volatility)

Currently we anticipate strong M&A in the pharmaceutical, energy and technology industries among others,

Identification of potential buyers is based on criteria such as: Level of cash on balance sheet, need for external strategic

growth, etc. Companies that could generate synergies and cost savings

and/or unlock other value

Trading Policy: the size of the position normally starts small and is built up when the stock price increases, which we consider as an indication that the market aligns with our scenario.

Hedging: the positions are covered by short selling index futures to obtain a zero beta adjustment (ie, "market neutral"). Liquidity: over 80% of the portfolio is invested in companies with a market capitalization of at least $500 million. Risk Controls: stop-losses at 10% downside of the traded pair (long equity – short index)

Company Description

SonoSite is medical equipment company based in Seattle (United States)

It is the global leader in point-of-care ultrasound devices, a new kind of medical equipment far smaller than traditional ultrasound systems. The company went public in 1998 after being spun off from ATL Ultrasound, subsequently acquired by the Dutch manufacturer, Philips Medical Systems

The company counts more than 60,000 systems installed worldwide and its devices are used in over 20 different medical specialties: from anesthesiology, to cardiology, orthopedic surgery or sports medicine.

SonoSite grew to being a company with around $250m in annual sales along 4 international divisions. It has operations in 20 different segments, among which unique partnerships with the U.S. Army in field medicine or major professional sports events.

Investment Rationale: a groundbreaking proprietary technology in an industry dominated by heavyweights

SonoSite offered everything of a potential takeover: scarce assets, strong potential and big potential buyers: High-growth market both in the U.S. and internationally as the company’s proprietary technology and products are progressively adopted by

physicians. It had recently launched a new product and was expected to present a complete new product cycle over the next 18 months. The company had also boosted its sales force.

Favorable industry trends: ageing population also played in favor of SonoSite’s products (number of 60 year-old and over expected to 3x over the next 40 years). With its cost-cutting technology and products, SonoSite was also perfectly positioned to benefit from budget constraints in the medical industry.

A sound financial position: high growth, Capex driven by tactical marketing spending to increase reach and higher expected margins due to product cycle enhancement and integration of recent acquisition.

Many potential buyers: the medical imaging industry is dominated by several huge players such as GE Healthcare, Philips, Samsung, Siemens or even the Chinese maker of medical equipment Mindray. All of them could benefit from acquiring SonoSite’s technology and had the power to do so. We believed that SonoSite could attract offers between $50 and $60 per share (we entered around $40).

→ On December 15th, the Japanese FUJIFILM announced a $54 per share offer for SonoSite (at the middle of our expected range). → With the subsequent arbitrage (very tight spread due to the premium and the quality of the buyer), the position generated a 30%+ return over 4 months.

An Uptick in M&A Activity

Corporate balance sheets are flushed with cash (approx. $2.2 trillion in the U.S. and $1.1 trillion in Europe) Private Equity is sitting on massive amounts of capital ready to be deployed and levered multiple times (about $500bn) Interest rates remain low and friendly as to M&A transactions financing Public companies valuations are reasonable across the markets, the European situation is providing plenty of

opportunities for interested acquirers Companies’ ability to grow organically remain challenged and external growth in the current environment is cheaper and

faster The macroeconomic uncertainties remain the last hurdle for a pick-up in M&A activity. However, the new class of leaders

in Europe and the rest of the world seem now committed to finding a quick solution.
