If following each distribution in respect of the Class B Shares described in the paragraph above, there remains any income or gains from each such distribution period in excess of the amount that would give each holder of Class B Shares a 10 per cent annualised return on its investment as at such date, it is envisaged that a semi-annual dividend will be distributed in respect of the Class A Shares from such income and gains in order to give each holder of Class A Shares a 50 per cent annualised return on its investment (calculated on a cumulative basis but not compounded).

Further, if at the time of declaring a dividend there remains any income or gains from each such distribution period in excess of the amount that would give (i) each holder of Class B Shares a 10 per cent annualised return on its investment, and (ii) each holder of Class A shares a 50 per cent annualised return on its investment as at such date (the "Excess Return Amount", an additional amount will be distributed to enable the Class B Shares to share in 5 per cent of any such excess return above the Excess Return Amount and to enable the Class A Shares to share in 95 per cent of any such excess return above the Excess Return Amount.

The directors of the Fund Company are responsible for the overall management and control of the Fund Company. However, in respect of the Segregated Portfolio, the directors of the Fund Company have delegated responsibility for day-to-day administrative functions to Ayasa Globo Financial Services Limited (being the administrator) and responsibility for making day-to-day investment decisions to the Investment Manager.
