Type: The Fund is a sub-fund of iShares III plc, an umbrella company incorporated in Ireland, authorised by the Central Bank of Ireland as a Undertaking for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (“UCITS”). The Fund is a UCITS exchange-traded fund, a UCITS ETF. Term: The Fund does not have a fixed term of existence or maturity period but in certain circumstances, as described in the Fund prospectus, the Fund may be unilaterally terminated following written notice to unitholders subject to compliance with the Fund prospectus and applicable regulation. Objectives The Share Class is a share class of a Fund which aims to achieve a total return, taking into account both capital and income returns, which reflects the return of the MSCI World ex USA Index, the Fund’s benchmark index (“Index”). The Share Class, via the Fund, is passively managed and aims to invest so far as possible and practicable in the equity securities (e.g. shares) that make up the Index. The Index measures the performance of large and mid-capitalisation stocks across developed market countries excluding the United States which comply with MSCI's size, liquidity, and free-float criteria. The Index is market capitalisation weighted and rebalances on a quarterly basis. The Fund intends to replicate the Index by holding equity securities, which make up the Index, in similar portions to it. The investment manager may use financial derivative instruments (“FDIs”) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets) to help achieve the Fund’s investment objective. FDIs may be used for direct investment purposes. The Fund may also engage in short-term secured lending of its investments to certain eligible third parties to generate additional income to off-set the costs of the Fund. The price of equity securities fluctuates daily and may be influenced by factors affecting the performance of the individual companies issuing the equities, as well as by daily stock market movements, and broader economic and political developments which in turn may affect the value of your investment. The relationship between the return on your investment, how it is impacted and the period for which you hold your investment is considered below (see “How long should I hold it and can I take my money out early?”). The depositary of the Fund is State Street Custodial Services (Ireland) Limited. Further information about the Fund can be obtained from the latest annual report and half-yearly reports of the iShares III plc. These documents are available free of charge in English and certain other languages. These can be found, along with other (practical) information, including prices of units, on the iShares website at: www.ishares.com or by calling +49 89427295800 or from your broker or financial adviser. Your shares will be distributing shares (i.e. income will be paid on the shares quarterly). Your shares will be denominated in US Dollar, the Fund's base currency. The shares are listed and traded on various stock exchanges. In normal circumstances, only authorised participants may buy and sell shares directly with the Fund. Investors who are not authorised participants (e.g. select financial institutions) can generally only buy or sell the shares on the secondary market (e.g. via a broker on a stock exchange) at the then prevailing market price. The value of the shares are related to the value of the underlying assets of the Fund, less costs (see “What are the costs?” below). The prevailing market price at which the shares trade on the secondary market may deviate from the value of the Shares. Indicative net asset value is published on relevant stock exchanges websites. Intended retail investor: The Fund is intended for retail investors with the ability to bear losses up to the amount invested in the Fund (see “How long should I hold it and can I take my money out early?”). Insurance benefits: The Fund does not offer any insurance benefits. 1 What are the risks and what could I get in return?

The assets of the Fund are held in safekeeping by its depositary, State Street Custodial Services (Ireland) Limited (the “Depositary”). In the event of the insolvency of the Manager, the Fund’s assets in the safekeeping of the Depositary will not be affected. However, in the event of the Depositary’s insolvency, or someone acting on its behalf, the Fund may suffer a financial loss. However, this risk is mitigated to a certain extent by the fact the Depositary is required by law and regulation to segregate its own assets from the assets of the Fund. The Depositary will also be liable to the Fund and the investors for any loss arising from, among other things, its negligence, fraud or intentional failure properly to fulfil its obligations (subject to certain limitations). As a shareholder of the Fund you would not be able to make a claim to the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme or any other scheme about the Fund in the event that the Fund is unable to pay out. 2 What are the costs?
