                                            It is the industry superannuation fund (profits
                                            to members) for the property services sector.
                                            The Trustee acts in the best interests of all members and

                                            2. How super works
                                            Superannuation (super) is a tax-effective
                                            retirement savings vehicle.
                                            In simple terms, contributions are the money that is put into
                                            your REI Super account. They can be from your employer,
                                            yourself, your spouse, the Government or by consolidating
                                            your super accounts you have had elsewhere. Most people
                                            have the right to choose which super fund their employer
                                            should direct their superannuation contributions.

* The investment return objective is the investment return this option will seek to achieve after
investment fees and taxes. It is the amount above the increase in the rate of inflation. For example,
if the objective for an investment option is inflation +3% and the inflation rate is 2.5%, then the
investment return objective would be 5.5%.

6. Fees and costs
    Super is about saving. Industry super funds like REI Super are run only
    to benefit members, and charge low fees and no commissions, to avoid
    eating into your hard-earned super savings.
    Under Australian law, REI Super is required to include the below warning about fees and
    costs. The Trustee negotiates with its service providers to ensure fees to our members are
    as low as possible. You pay no contribution fees and the Fund does not pay commissions
    to financial advisers.

     Did you know?
     Small differences in both investment performance and fees and costs can have a
     substantial impact on your long term returns.
     For example, total annual fees and costs of 2% of your fund balance rather than 1% could
     reduce your final return by up to 20% over a 30-year period (for example, reduce it from
     $100,000 to $80,000). You should consider whether features such as superior investment
     performance or the provision of better member services justify higher fees and costs. You
     may be able to negotiate to pay lower contribution fees and management costs where
     applicable.* Ask the fund or your financial adviser.
     To find out more: If you would like to find out more or see the impact of fees based on
     your own circumstances, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC)
     website (moneysmart.gov.au) has a superannuation calculator to help you check out
     different fee options.
     * Please note that you cannot negotiate to pay lower management fees in REI Super.

7. How super is taxed
This section isn’t a comprehensive and complete
tax guide.
The taxation treatment of super is complex; we recommend
you contact the Australian Tax Office (ATO) on ato.gov.au
or your financial adviser for further details in relation to your
own personal circumstances.
Superannuation is generally taxed at three stages:
1. Contributions paid into a super fund
2. Investment earnings of a super fund
3. Benefits from a super fund.
Tax on contributions: Concessional contributions include
Superannuation Guarantee (SG), salary sacrifice, any extra
employer contributions, and contributions for which a tax
deduction is claimed. These are taxed at a rate of 15%.
Non-concessional or after-tax contributions are not taxed.
The Government sets annual limits for concessional and
non-concessional contributions and if you exceed them,
additional tax may apply.
Tax on investment earnings: Investment earnings are
generally taxed at a rate of up to 15%.
Tax on benefits: If you are under 60 years of age, your
super withdrawals may be taxed. Once you turn 60,
they are generally tax-free.

 When acquiring a superannuation product you should                !
 provide your Tax File Number (TFN). If we don’t have your
 TFN, you may pay extra tax on your contributions or when
 you later access your benefit, or not be able to make
 some types of contributions. It will also be difficult to trace
 different super amounts in your name. This can mean that
 you may not receive all of your super benefits when you
 retire. Also note there will be taxation consequences if your
 superannuation contribution caps are exceeded.

 You should read the important information about...
 How super is taxed before making a decision. Go to
 reisuper.com.au/pds and read How super is taxed.
 The material relating to how super is taxed may change
 between the time when you read this Statement and
 when you acquire the product.

                                                                       reisuper.com.au | 1300 13 44 33   11
8. Insurance in your super
                                          REI Super provides you with modern and flexible
                                          insurance cover.
                                          It is generally true that for many members, their need for
                                          insurance cover changes over the course of their working
                                          lives. Often, younger members are just starting out – they
                                          may not yet be in a permanent relationship, and may not yet
                                          have family responsibilities, or have acquired assets such as
                                          a house which likely involves taking out a mortgage.
                                          On the other hand, later on, people are likely to be heavily
                                          involved in raising a family, and these may be the years where
                                          people will carry the greatest level of debt. So therefore, they
                                          need to be able to obtain greater insurance protection from
                                          their super fund to meet these needs.
                                          Types of insurance the Fund provides
                                          Death and Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) cover for
                                          eligible members. Eligible members may also elect to take
                                          out optional Salary Continuance (Income Protection) cover.
                                          Cover when you first join REI Super
                                          When you join REI Super, you will be provided with 4 units of
                                          automatic cover for Death and TPD. There are no medicals
                                          or health evidence required. A contribution must be received
                                          from your employer within 6 months of joining the Fund for

STEP 3: NOMINATION OF BENEFICIARIES
To assist the Trustee in determining who should receive any lump sum payable from the Fund in the event of your death, you should complete
this section. It is not binding on the Trustee, but your wishes will be taken into account.
Please write below the name(s) of the dependant(s) that you want to receive your superannuation and insurance (if any) if you die.
Don’t forget to write down what percentage of your benefit you would like each dependant to be paid. The percentages must add up to 100%.
A dependant is your spouse (including de facto), your child (including step child, adopted child or ex-nuptial child) or others financially dependent
on you at the time of your death. For more information in relation to dependants, refer to the Insurance section of the PDS.
If I die while a member of the Fund, I wish for my benefit to be paid to my dependants listed below. If I sign this form without nominating
a dependant, this indicates that I wish my benefit to be paid to the legal personal representative(s) of my estate.

STEP 4: MEMBER INVESTMENT CHOICE
You can choose any one or more investment options, up to a total of 5. You should refer to the Investment section of the PDS for full details
in relation to Member Investment Choice.
The total of your choices must add up to 100% for it to be a valid choice. If your choices do not add up to 100%, or if you don’t make a selection,

STEP 5: INSURANCE COVER FOR DEATH AND TOTAL AND PERMANENT DISABILITY
You can select the amount of insurance cover you have in the Fund.
Please refer to the Insurance section of the PDS for full details of the insurance cover offered by the Fund.
I choose the following number of units of insurance cover:
   4 units (the minimum – also known as the ‘default’ – level of insurance cover you must have in REI Super)
   Other (please advise the number of units – maximum of 20 units):                   units
   Nil cover (you do not require any units of insurance)
Important notes:
• The cost of insurance is deducted from your employer account balance. Consequently, you are not insured until a contribution
  is received from your employer (refer to the Insurance section of the PDS for full details).
• Please refer to the ‘Insurance Scale’ in the Insurance section of the PDS for the dollar amount of cover per unit and the cost
  of insurance per unit.
• You are also able to transfer insurance cover you hold already with another super policy. Please see the Transfer of
  Insurance Cover form, also enclosed, for further detail and conditions.
• Where you submit a request for more than 4 units of cover within 6 months of first joining, or you apply for any amount of additional cover after
  this time, you will be required to provide health evidence.
When applying for insurance cover, you are required to comply with the Duty of Disclosure as set out in the ‘Other important information’ section
in the Insurance Guide available at reisuper.com.au/pds. The Insurer may accept your application, and in some cases apply exclusions to your
additional cover for Death or TPD. The Insurer may also accept certain types of cover and decline another type of cover. For instance, the insurer
may accept your application for additional death cover and decline you for additional TPD cover.

*DISABILITY     INSURANCE DECLARATION
Have you ever been paid a benefit for Total and Permanent Disablement from a super fund or life policy or
are you presently applying for, or entitled to apply for, a payment for a disability benefit?                                     YES        NO
If you answer ‘Yes’, you will only be eligible to have Death Only cover and you will not be able to apply for additional insurance cover.
If you do not answer the question above, it will be assumed that you have not previously been paid a TPD benefit. However, if you
subsequently lodge a disability claim and it is found that you have previously received a disability benefit, then your claim under
the Fund will not be considered.

SALARY CONTINUANCE INSURANCE (SCI)
You are able to apply online for SCI cover once your Membership Application has been received and finalised.
Please refer to the website or the Insurance section of the PDS for further detail.
