CAPITAL INVESTMENT, Fonds Commun de Placement.

MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS

Art. 1. The Fund
CAPITAL INVESTMENT (the «Fund») which was constituted on May 8th, 1991, is organised and exists under the laws

of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg as an open-ended mutual investment fund («Fonds Commun de Placement) under
the law of 19th July 1991 concerning undertakings for collective investment the securities of which are not intended to
be be placed with the public («the Law») and constitutes an unincorporated co-proprietorship of the securities and
other assets of the Fund, managed for the account and in the exclusive interest of its co-owners (hereinafter referred
to as the «Unitholders») by CAPITAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT COMPANY (hereinafter referred to as the
«Management Company»), a company incorporated as a «société anonyme» under the laws of the Grand Duchy of
Luxembourg and having its registered office in Luxembourg.

The Management Company issues joint-ownership units («Units») of different classes corresponding to a portfolio of

assets (a «Portfolio») as described in these Management Regulations, and of such other classes as the Management
Company may decide to issue subsequently. In case Units of other classes are issued notice thereof will be given to
Unitholders upon prior approval of the relevant amendments to these Management Regulations having been obtained
from the competent supervisory authority and published in the Mémorial, Recueil des Sociétés et Associations of the
Grand Duchy of Luxembourg in respect of such other class or classes of Units.

Units of each class will further be sub-divided into two categories, namely Distribution Units and Accumulation Units.

Units in each class are issued in certificated or non-certificated registered form.

Ownership of Units is evidenced by an entry on the register of Unitholders. Units of all classes entitle the holders

thereof to a proportionate entitlement of the assets of the relevant Portfolio. Unitholders of a class, and within a class,
category of Units, have equal rights among themselves in respect of their category of Units, irrespective of the Price of
the Units. Units of a Portfolio have no preferential or pre-emption rights and are freely transferable, safe as provided in
these Management Regulations.

The assets of the Fund are held in safe custody by a custodian bank (the «Custodian») organised under the laws of

and having its registered office in Luxembourg. CREDIT AGRICOLE INDOSUEZ LUXEMBOURG S.A. has been
appointed the Fund’s Custodian.

The assets of the Fund are segregated from those of the Management Company. The Fund is liable towards the

Management Company and the Unitholders, except if and to the extent provided for under these Management Regula-
tions.

By the acquisition of Units any Unitholder fully accepts these Management Regulations which determine the

contractual relationship between the Unitholders, the Management Company and the Custodian. Claims of third parties
against the Fund directed against the Management Company shall be accounted for in the relevant class and, where appli-
cable, category of Units and shall be supported by the total assets of the Fund.

Art. 2. The Management Company
The Fund is managed by the Management Company for the exclusive account of the Unitholders.
The Management Company is vested with the broadest powers to, in the name and on behalf of the Unitholders,

administer and manage the Fund, subject to the restrictions set forth in Article 5 hereafter, including but not limited to
the right to purchase, subscribe, sell or otherwise receive or dispose of selected and diversified investments permitted
for each Portfolio, including, without limitation and where relevant, transferable securities, transferable debt securities
and ancillary liquid assets as may be permitted in the case of each Portfolio; to supervise and manage such investments;
to exercise, while the holder of any such investments, all the rights, powers and privileges apertaining to the holding or
ownership thereof to the same extent as an individual could do; to conduct research and investigations in respect of
investments; to secure information pertinent to the investments and employment of assets of the Fund’s Portfolios; to
procure research investigations, information and other investment advisory services from any investment advisor for
which remuneration shall be at its sole charge; to do everything, necessary or suitable and proper for the accom-
plishment of any of the purposes and powers hereinabove set forth, either alone or in conjunction with others and to
do every other act or thing incidental to the purposes aforesaid, provided the same are not inconsistent with the laws
of Luxembourg or of any jurisdiction where the Fund may be registered.

The board of directors of the Management Company (the «Board») shall determine the investment policy of the Fund

for its several Portfolios within the restrictions set forth in Article 5 hereafter. The Board may appoint a general manager
or managers and/or administration agents to carry out on behalf of the Management Company the investment policy
and/or the day-to-day administration and management of the assets of the Fund.

The Management Company is entitled to receive a management fee of maximum 2 per cent per annum of the Net

Asset Value (as defined hereinafter) of each Portfolio, calculated and accrued on each Valuation Day (as defined
hereafter) and payable monthly.

Art. 3. The Custodian
The Management Company shall appoint and terminate the appointment of the Custodian. The Custodian or the

Management Company may terminate the appointment of the Custodian at any time upon at least three months’ written
notice delivered by one party or the other, provided, however, that such termination is subject to the condition that a
new custodian, which has to be appointed within two months of the termination as aforesaid, assumes the responsibility
and functions of the Custodian under these Management Regulations and provided further, that the appointment of the
Custodian shall continue thereafter for such period as may be necessary to transfer all assets of the Fund to the new
Custodian.

22658

In the event that the Custodian terminates its appointment, the Management Company will appoint a new Custodian

who assumes the responsibilities and functions of the Custodian under these Management Regulations.

All cash and securities constituting the assets of the Fund shall be held by the Custodian on behalf of the Unitholders

of the Fund. The Custodian may entrust banks and financial institutions with the custody of such assets. It will have the
normal duties of a bank with respect to the Fund’s deposits of cash and securities. The Custodian may only dispose of
the assets of the Fund and make payments to third parties on behalf of the Fund on receipt of instructions from the
Management Company or its appointed agents.

Upon receipt of instructions from the Management Company the Custodian will perform all acts of disposal with

respect to the assets of the Fund and make payments to third parties on behalf of the Fund.

The Custodian shall sign and be a party to these Management Regulations. The Custodian shall verify the compliance

by the Management Company with these Management Regulations with respect to the assets of the Fund and the receipt
under custody for the Fund of counterparts of all documentation for all transactions made on behalf of the Fund.

The Custodian shall moreover ensure that:
(i) the sale, issue, redemption, conversion and cancellation of Units are carried out in accordance with the Law and

these Management Regulations;

(ii) carry out the instructions of the Management Company, unless they conflict with the Law or the Management

Regulations; 

(iii) ensure that in transactions involving the assets of the Fund, the consideration is remitted to it within the usual

time limits; 

(iv) ensure that the income of the Fund is applied in accordance with the Management Regulations.
The Custodian is entitled to such fees as will be determined from time to time between the Management Company

and the Custodian.

Art. 4. Investment Objectives and Policies
The objective of the Fund is to provide investors with an opportunity for investments in the capital and money

markets while participating in a professionally managed portfolio.

The investment policy of the Fund is determined by the Board in respect of the political, economic, financial or

monetary situation prevailing in the Eligible Markets set out herein and into which the Portfolios may invest. It is not the
intention of the Board of Directors to distribute the Fund within the European Union.

The Management Company may decide to add further Portfolios, to discontinue existing Portfolios or to vary the

investment objective and policy of existing Portfolios, subject to prior notice being given to the Unitholders and subject
further to the current Prospectus of the Fund being either amended by way of a prospectus supplement or a revised
prospectus being issued.

Art. 5. Investment Powers and Limitations
The Board shall, upon the principle of spreading of risks, have power to determine the course of conduct of the

management and business of the Fund.

The Management Company is subject to restrictions in investing assets of the Fund.
1. The Management Company may not invest more than 10 % of the Fund’s net assets in transferable securities not

quoted on a stock exchange or not dealt in on another regulated market operating regularly, recognised and open to
the public; 

2. The Management Company may not acquire more than 10 % of securities of the same kind issued by the same

issuing body; 

3. The Management Company may not invest more than 10 % of the Fund’s net assets in securities issued by the same

issuing body; 

4. The above-mentioned restrictions are applicable to the acquisition of Units in other open-ended Undertakings for

Collective Investment («UCIs») where those UCIs are not subject to the requirements of risk diversification equivalent
to those provided for in the circular 91/75 of January 21, 1991 for UCIs subject to part II of the Law of March 30, 1988.
Those UCIs are organized under the laws of an EU country or of Hong Kong. No issue or purchase commission and no
management or advisory fee may be charged by the Fund with respect to the assets of the Fund invested in UCIs
managed by the same promoters as manage the Fund;

5. The Management Company may borrow on behalf of the Fund the equivalent of up to 25 % of the Fund’s net assets

for any purpose.

The restrictions set forth under items 1, 2 and 3 above are not applicable to transferable securities issued or

guaranteed by a member state of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development («OECD») or by one
of their local authorities or by supranational institutions and undertakings of a community, regional or world-wide
nature. The Management Company need not comply with restrictions 1, 2, 3 and 4 above when exercising subscription
rights attached to securities that are assets of the Fund; provided, however, that if the percentages set out in these
restrictions are exceeded as a result of the exercise of subscription rights or otherwise for reasons beyond the control
of the Management Company, the Management Company must adopt as a priority objective for its sales transactions the
remedy of that situation, taking due account of the interests of the Fund’s unitholders.

The Management Company may from time to time impose further investment restrictions or depart from some of

the above restrictions as shall be compatible with or in the interests of the unitholders.

For the purpose of efficient portfolio management, the Fund may undertake transactions relating to options, financial

futures and related options, securities lending, «rémérés» as shall be more fully described in the prospectus.

Furthermore, to protect assets against the fluctuation of currencies, the Fund may enter into transactions the purpose

of which is the sale of forward foreign exchange contracts, sale of call options or the purchase of put options in respect
of currencies as it shall be more fully described in the prospectus.

22659

Art. 6. Issue of Units
The Management Company will, without limitation, allot and issue, certificated or non-certificated registered Units

(and within each Portfolio allot and issue Distribution Units and Accumulation Units) at any time at the respective Price
per Unit which will be based on the Net Asset Value determined according to Article 9, without reserving preferential
subscription rights to existing Unitholders.

Units will be calculated to the nearest 10th of a Unit. Fractions of Units will be issued to the nearest 10th of a Unit,

whether resulting from purchase or conversion of Units. Rights attached to fractions of Units are exercised in
proportion to the fraction of a Unit held except for possible voting rights which can only be exercised for whole units.

The Management Company may register registered Units jointly in the names of not more than four holders should

they so require. In such case rights attaching to such Units may be exercised by any of those parties in whose names they
are registered unless they appoint one or more persons specifically to do so.

Unit certificates are signed by or on behalf of the Custodian or the Management Company by one or more persons

designated therefor. The signature of the Custodian or the Management Company or other person or persons desig-
nated to sign Unit Certificates may be by facsimile signature.

Units of the Portfolios are allotted at the relevant Prices (determined in accordance with the provisions described in

Article 9), calculated following receipt of the application. During an initial offer period Units of the Portfolios concerned
will be allotted at the relevant initial Prices.

Units in the Fund shall be issued by the Management Company, provided payment is made to the Custodian within

such period as hereafter and as the Management Company may from time to time determine.

The allotment of Units is conditional upon receipt by the Custodian of cleared monies within two business days (being

a day on which banks are open for business on Luxembourg) of the relevant Valuation Day. If timely settlement is not
made an application may lapse and be cancelled. Certificates for certificated Units or confirmations shall be delivered by
the Management Company, or its appointed agent(s) provided payment has been received by the Custodian.

The Fund will accept payment in any major freely convertible currency. Application monies received in a currency

other than the currency of the Portfolio(s) applied for can be exchanged by the Fund or by its appointed agent(s) on
behalf of the investor at normal banking rates.

Payment will be authorised by telex transfer, cheque or banker’s draft, all in accordance with the payment procedures

described in the Fund’s current prospectus.

The Board may also accept subscriptions by means of an existing portfolio, as provided for in the law of August 10,

1915 as amended, subject that the securities of this portfolio comply with the investment objectives and restrictions of
the Management Company. Such a portfolio must be easy to evaluate. A valuation report, the cost of which is to be
borne by the relevant investor, will be drawn up by the auditor of the Management Company according to Article 26-1
(2) of the above-referred law and will be deposited with the Court and for inspection at the registered office of the
Management Company.

The Board of Directors may delegate to any duly authorized director or officer of the Management Company or to

any other duly authorized person, the duty of accepting subscriptions and of delivering and receiving payment for such
new shares.

In the context of money laundering prevention and in compliance with Luxembourg and international regulations

applicable thereto, any Subscriber will have to establish its identity to the Fund or to the financial institution which
collects its subscription. Such identification will be provided upon subscription and evidenced as described in the
subscription agreement. Failing identification, the subscription will be refused.

Without prejudice to the above, the Board of Directors reserves the right to (a) refuse any request for subscription,

and (b) repurchase outstanding shares held by investors who are not authorised to either buy or hold shares of the Fund.

It is reminded that Capital Investment restricts its units to institutional investors pursuant to the law of 19th July 1991

concerning Undertakings for collective Investment the securities of which are not intended to be placed with the public.

The Board may:
– reject at its discretion any application for units;
– redeem at any time units held by unitholders who are excluded from purchasing or holding units;
– accept subscriptions and transfers of units to institutional investors only acting for their own account, or third

parties being themselves institutional investors.

Units are offered for sale on each Valuation Day, except in case of suspension of the Net Asset Value determination

and of the issue of Units as under Article 10 hereafter. Applications for Units shall be irrevocable after they have been
made to the Fund, and may be withdrawn only if there is a suspension of the Net Asset Value determination or if the
Fund has delayed or rejected their acceptance.

Art. 7. Dealing Times
Instructions may be given to the Fund for the purchase, conversion or redemption of Units on any valuation day.

Instructions received by the Fund prior to 12.00 noon on any Valuation Day will be effected on that day. However, the
Company reserves the right to defer all dealings resulting from instructions received after 12.00 noon on any Valuation
Day until the following Valuation Day.

Dealing instructions received by telephone, fax or telex before 12.00 noon on any Valuation Day on which the

valuation of Units of the relevant Portfolio is suspended will lapse unless the Fund is specifically advised to hold the
instructions over until the valuation is no longer suspended. Dealing instructions received by post on any Valuation Day
on which the valuation of Units of the relevant Portfolio is suspended will, in any event, be held over until the valuation
is no longer suspended.

22660

Art. 8. Co-Management
In order to reduce operational costs and administrative charges while allowing a wider diversification of the invest-

ments, the Board may decide that part or all of the assets of the Fund will be co-managed with assets belonging to other
collective investment schemes or that part or all of the assets of any Funds will be co-managed among themselves.

Art. 9. Prices of Units
There will be a single price for each category of Unit of each Portfolio, which will be used for the purchase, conversion

and redemption of Units.

The price for each category of Unit will be calculated on each Valuation Day by reference to the net asset value of

the underlying assets (the «Net Asset Value») of the relevant Portfolio on that Valuation Day.

In certain circumstances, the Net Asset Value determinations may be suspended and during such period of

suspension, Units of the Portfolio(s) to which the suspension relates will not be issued (other than those already
allotted) converted or redeemed.

Until the first dividend in each Portfolio is declared, the prices for Distribution Units and Accumulation Units in each

Portfolio will remain the same. Thereafter, the price of the Distribution Units of each Portfolio will be adjusted to reflect
the amount of attributable income declared and paid by way of dividend. The price of the Accumulation Units of each
Portfolio will however not be affected as income attributable to the Accumulation Units will be retained in the Portfolio
and will enhance the value of the Units.

Art. 10. Net Asset Value Determination
The reporting currency of the Fund will be Dollars. The financial statements of the Fund will be prepared in relation

to each Portfolio in the denomination currency of such Portfolio.

The Net Asset Value of the Units of each Portfolio will be expressed in the relevant currency of the Portfolio

concerned, as decided by the Management Company and shall be determined on each Valuation Day by aggregating the
value of securities and other assets of the Fund allocated to that Portfolio and deducting the liabilities of the Fund
allocated to that Portfolio.

The Fund may operate equalisation arrangements for the purpose of valuation.
The assets of the Fund shall be deemed to include:
(i) all cash in hand or receivable or on deposit, including accrued interest;
(ii) all bills and notes payable on demand and any amounts due (including the proceeds of securities sold but not yet

collected); 

(iii) all securities, shares, bonds, debentures, options or subscription rights and any other investments and securities

belonging to the Fund; 

(iv) all dividends and distributions due to the Fund in cash or in kind to the extent known to the Fund provided that

the Fund may adjust the valuation for fluctuations in the market value of securities due to trading practices such as
trading ex-dividend or ex-rights; 

(v) all accrued interest on any interest bearing securities held by the Fund except to the extent such interest is

comprised in the principal thereof; 

(vi) the preliminary expenses of the Fund insofar as the same have not been written off; and 
(vii) all other permitted assets of any kind and nature including prepaid expenses.
The value of assets of the Fund shall be determined as follows:
(i) the value of any cash in hand or on deposit, discount notes, bills and demand notes and accounts receivable, prepaid

expenses, cash dividends and interest declared or accrued as aforesaid and not yet received, shall be deemed to be the
full amount thereof, unless in any case the same is unlikely to be paid or received in full, in which case the value thereof
shall be arrived at after making such discount as the Management Company may consider appropriate in such case to
reflect the true value thereof;

(ii) the value of all portfolio securities which are listed on an official stock exchange or traded on any other regulated

market will be valued at the last available price on the principle market on which such securities are traded, as furnished
by a pricing service approved by the Management Company. If such prices are not representative of the fair value, such
securities as well as all other permitted assets, including securities which are listed on a stock exchange or traded on a
regulated market, will be valued at the fair value at which it is expected that they may be resold, as determined in good
faith by and under the direction of the Management Company;

(iii) the value of securities which are not quoted or dealt in on any regulated market will be valued at the last available

price, unless such price is not representative of their true value;

(iv) the values expressed in a currency other than that used in the calculation of the asset value of a Sub-Fund will be

converted at representative exchange rates ruling on the Valuation Day;

(v) money market instruments are valued on the basis of the last available official quotation. In the case of a discount

instrument, the value of the instrument, based on the net acquisition cost, is gradually adjusted to the redemption price
thereof while the investment return calculated on the net acquisition cost is kept constant. Other short-term instru-
ments are valued on the basis of the normal value plus accrued interest; 

(vi) certificates of deposit are valued at their market value. Other liquid assets are valued at their nominal value plus

accrued interest.

The liabilities of the Fund shall be deemed to include: 
(i) all borrowings, bills and other amounts due;

22661

(ii) all administrative expenses due or accrued including the costs of its constitution and registration with regulatory

authorities, as well as legal, audit, management, custodial, paying agency and corporate and central administration agency
fees and expenses, the costs of legal publications, prospectuses, financial reports and other documents made available to
unitholders, translation expenses, marketing and advertising expenses and generally any other expenses arising form the
administration of the Fund;

(iii) all known liabilities, due or not yet due including all matured contractual obligations for payments of money or

property, including the amount of all dividends declared by the Fund for which no coupons have been presented and
which therefore remain unpaid until the day these dividends revert to the Fund by prescription;

(iv) an appropriate amount set aside for taxes due on the date of the valuation and any other provisions or reserves

authorised and approved by the Management Company; and

(v) any other liabilities of the Fund of whatever kind towards third parties.
For the purposes of valuation of its liabilities, the Fund may duly take into account all administrative and other

expenses of regular or periodical character by valuing them for the entire year or any other period and by dividing the
amount concerned proportionately for the relevant fractions of such period.

The valuation of the Net Asset Value of any Portfolio and the prices of Distribution and Accumulation Units in each

Portfolio will normally be calculated on each Valuation Day.

In addition to the Prices for Units calculated as aforesaid, applicants may be required to pay to the relevant Portfolio

a sales charge calculated as a percentage of the Net Asset Value as determined for each Portfolio, such sales charge to
be deducted from the purchase monies, and the remaining monies applied in purchasing Units of the relevant category
in the relevant Portfolio.

Art. 11. Suspension of the Calculation of the Net Asset Value, of the Issue, Conversion and

Redemption of Units

The Fund may temporarily suspend the determination of the Net Asset Value of any Portfolio and the issue and

redemption of Units relating to all or any of the Portfolios as well as the right to convert Units relating to a Portfolio
into Units relating to another Portfolio:

(i) during any period when any market or stock exchange, which is the principal market or stock exchange on which

a material part of the Fund’s investments of the relevant Portfolio for the time being are quoted, is closed (otherwise
than for ordinaiy holidays) or during which dealings are restricted or suspended; or

(ii) during the existence of any state of affairs which in the opinion of the Management Company should constitute a

breach of the Unitholders’ interests or an emergency, as a result of which disposals or valuation of assets attributable to
investments of the relevant Portfolio is impracticable; or

(iii) during any breakdown in, or restriction in the use of, the means of communication normally employed in deter-

mining the prices of any of the investments attributable to such Portfolio or the current prices or values on any market
or stock exchange; or 

(iv) during any period when remittance of monies which will or may be involved in the realisation of, or in the payment

for, any of the Fund’s invesments is not possible.

The Fund shall suspend the issue and redemption of Units forthwith upon the occurrence of an event causing it to

enter into liquidation or upon the order of the Luxembourg supervisory authority.

Unitholders having requested conversion or redemption of their Units shall be notified of any such suspension within

seven days of their request and will be promptly notified of determination of such suspension.

The suspension of any Portfolio will have no effect on the calculation of the Net Asset Value and the issue,

redemption and conversion of the Units of any other Portfolio.

Art. 12. Conversion of Units
Unless otherwise provided in the current prospectus of the Fund, holders of Units are entitled to request conversion

of the whole or part of their holding of Units into Units relating to another Portfolio (or within a Portfolio from Distri-
bution Units to Accumulation Units) by giving notice to the Fund.

The basis of conversion will relate to the respective Price per Unit of the class of Unit of the Portfolios concerned.
Conversion between Portfolios will be made at the relevant Price in accordance with the formula set out in the Fund’s

current prospectus.

Where conversions are undertaken between Portfolios whose currencies of denomination are not the same, the

appointed agent of the Fund will undertake the necessary foreign exchange transactions at normal banking rates. A
conversion fee may be charged by the Management Company.

Requests for conversions, once made, may not be withdrawn except in the event of a suspension or deferral of the

right to redeem Units of the Portfolio(s) from which the conversion is to be made or deferral of the right to purchase
Units of the Portfolio(s) into which conversion is to be made.

The proceeds of Units which are converted will be reinvested in Units relating to Portfolios into which conversion is

made to the nearest 10th of Unit.

Art. 13. Redemption of Units
Unitholders may request the redemption of any of their Units on any Valuation Day.
Redemption proceeds will normally be despatched within 10 business days after the relavant Units are redeemed.
Units will normally be redeemed at the prices for the relevant Portfolios next calculated, following receipt by the Fund

or its authorised agent(s) of the redemption instructions or, in the case of certificated Units and bearer units, following
receipt of the certificate(s). Redemption will normally be effected in the currency of denomination of the relevant
Portfolio(s) but investors will be requested to indicate, at the time of giving the redemption instructions, the currency
in which they wish to receive their redemption proceeds.

22662

Where redemption proceeds are not to be remitted in a currency other than the currency of denomination of the

relevant Portfolio(s), the proceeds are converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the relevant Valuation Day by the
Fund or its duly authorised agent(s) on behalf of the applicant, less any cost incurred in the foreign exchange transaction.

The Fund shall not on any Valuation Day or in any period of seven consecutive Valuation Days, be bound to redeem

(or consequently effect a conversion of) more than 10 per cent of the number of Units relating to any Portfolio then in
issue. If on any Valuation Day, or in any period of seven consecutive Valuation Days, the Fund receives requests for
redemptions of a greater number of Units, it may declare that such redemptions are deferred until a Valuation Date not
more than seven Valuation Days following such time. On such Valuation Day, such requests for redemptions will be
complied with in priority to later requests.

Art. 14. Charges of the Fund
The costs incurred in its operations by and charged to the Fund will include:
– all taxes which may be due on the assets and income of the Fund, including, without limitation, payment of the

Luxembourg tax of 0.01 per cent per annum, payable quarterly and assessed on the value of the net assets of the Fund
at the end of the relevant quarter; 

– usual brokerage and banking fees due on transactions involving securities held in the Portfolios and the transaction

related charges of any bank, financial institution or clearing system entrusted with the custody of the Fund’s assets;

– the remuneration of the Management Company, the remuneration and out-of-pocket expenses of the Custodian

and other bank, financial institution or clearing system entrusted by the Custodian with the custody of assets of the Fund
and of any registrar and transfer agent, administrative agent and paying agent;

– legal expenses incurred by the Management Company or the Custodian while acting in the interests of the

Unitholders; 

– the cost of printing certificates; the costs of preparing, translating and/or filing the Management Regulations and all

other documents concerning the Fund, including registration statements, prospectuses and explanatory memoranda

EURO-Strategie-Aktien, Fonds Commun de Placement.

ÄNDERUNG DES VERWALTUNGSREGLEMENTS

Die Verwaltungsgesellschaft hat mit Zustimmung der Depotbank die Artikel 2, 3 und 8 des Verwaltungsreglements

des Fonds geändert.

Bei den Änderungen handelt es sich im wesentlichen darum, daß die Berechnung des Inventarwertes von einem

zweiwöchigen Intervall auf tägliche Berechnungsweise umgestellt wird. Somit wird eine tägliche (an einem Börsentag)
Anteilsausgabe und -rücknahme ermöglicht werden. Aufgrund des erhöhten Arbeitsaufwands wird die Verwaltungsver-
gütung von 0,3 % auf 0,65 %, sowie die Wertpapierprovision von 0,25% auf 0,5% erhöht.

Art. 2. Die Verwaltungsgesellschaft.
Der Fonds wird - vorbehaltlich der Anlagebeschränkungen in Artikel 4 des Verwaltungsreglements - durch die

Verwaltungsgesellschaft im eigenen Namen, aber ausschließlich im Interesse und für gemeinschaftliche Rechnung der
Anteilinhaber, verwaltet. Diese Verwaltungsbefugnis erstreckt sich namentlich, jedoch nicht ausschließlich, auf den Kauf,
den Verkauf, die Zeichnung, den Umtausch und die Annahme von Wertpapieren und sonstigen gesetzlich zulässigen
Vermögenswerten sowie auf die Ausübung aller Rechte, welche unmittelbar oder mittelbar mit den Vermögenswerten
des Fonds zusammenhängen. Die Verwaltungsgesellschaft legt die Anlagepolitik des Fonds unter Berücksichtigung der
Anlagebeschränkungen des Artikels 4 des Verwaltungsreglements fest. Dabei kann sie sich der Anlageempfehlungen
eines Anlageberaters bedienen. Der Verwaltungsrat der Verwaltungsgesellschaft kann eines oder mehrere seiner
Mitglieder und/oder sonstige Personen mit der täglichen Ausführung der Anlagepolitik betrauen. Die Verwaltungsgesell-

22664

schaft ist berechtigt, vom Fonds eine Vergütung von max. 0,65 % p.a. zu erhalten, die monatlich nachträglich auf das
durchschnittliche Netto-Fondsvermögen eines jeden Monats zu berechnen und auszuzahlen ist. Mögliche Honorare für
einen Anlageberater gehen zu Lasten der Verwaltungsgesellschaft.

Art. 3. Die Depotbank.
Die Verwaltungsgesellschaft hat der Depotbank die Verwahrung des Fondsvermögens übertragen. Die Depotbank

oder die Verwaltungsgesellschaft sind berechtigt, die Depotbankbestellung jederzeit schriftlich mit einer Frist von drei
Monaten zu kündigen. Eine Kündigung durch die Verwaltungsgesellschaft wird wirksam, wenn eine von der zuständigen
Aufsichtsbehörde genehmigte Bank die Pflichten und Funktionen als Depotbank gemäß diesem Verwaltungsreglement
übernimmt. Falls eine Kündigung durch die Depotbank erfolgt, wird die Verwaltungsgesellschaft innerhalb von zwei
Monaten eine neue Depotbank ernennen, die die Pflichten und Funktionen als Depotbank gemäß diesem Verwaltungs-
reglement übernimmt. Bis zur Bestellung dieser neuen Depotbank wird die bisherige Depotbank zum Schutz der Inte-
ressen der Anteilinhaber ihren Pflichten und Funktionen als Depotbank gemäß diesem Verwaltungsreglement vollum-
fänglich nachkommen.

Alle flüssigen Mittel, Wertpapiere und sonstigen gesetzlich zulässigen Vermögenswerte, welche das Vermögen des

Fonds darstellen, werden von der Depotbank für die Anteilinhaber des Fonds in gesperrten Konten oder Depots
verwahrt, über die nur in Übereinstimmung mit den Bestimmungen dieses Verwaltungsreglements verfügt werden darf.
Die Depotbank kann unter ihrer Verantwortung und mit Einverständnis der Verwaltungsgesellschaft andere Banken im
Ausland und/oder Wertpapiersammelbanken mit der Verwahrung von Wertpapieren des Fonds beauftragen. Die
Depotbank wird entsprechend den Weisungen der Verwaltungsgesellschaft - vorausgesetzt diese stehen in Überein-
stimmung mit diesem Verwaltungsreglement, dem Depotbankvertrag, dem jeweils gültigen Verkaufsprospekt und dem
Gesetz -:

- Anteile des Fonds auf die Zeichner gemäß Artikel 5 des Verwaltungsreglements übertragen;
- aus den gesperrten Konten den Kaufpreis für Wertpapiere, Bezugs- oder Zuteilungsrechte, Finanzterminkontrakte,

Optionen und sonstige gesetzlich zulässige Vermögenswerte zahlen, die für den Fonds erworben worden sind;

- Wertpapiere, Bezugs- oder Zuteilungsrechte sowie sonstige zulässige Vermögenswerte, die für den Fonds verkauft

worden sind, gegen Zahlung des Verkaufspreises ausliefern;

- den Rücknahmepreis gemäß Artikel 9 des Verwaltungsreglements gegen Empfang der entsprechenden Anteilzerti-

fikate auszahlen;

- jedwede Ausschüttungen gemäß Artikel 13 des Verwaltungsreglements auszahlen.
Die Depotbank überwacht die Einhaltung der gesetzlichen Bestimmungen sowie sämtlicher Vorschriften des Verwal-

tungsreglements. Sie wird insbesondere bezüglich des Kaufs und Verkaufs von Optionen, Finanzterminkontrakten sowie
bezüglich Kurssicherungsgeschäften die Einhaltung der Bestimmungen in Artikel 4 des Verwaltungsreglements
überwachen.

Die Depotbank wird dafür Sorge tragen, daß:
- alle Vermögenswerte des Fonds unverzüglich auf seinen gesperrten Konten bzw. Depots eingehen, insbesondere

eingehende Zahlungen des Ausgabepreises abzüglich der Verkaufsprovision und eventueller Steuern und Abgaben;

- der Verkauf, die Ausgabe, die Rücknahme, die Auszahlung und die Aufhebung (d.h. der Umtausch) der Anteile für

Rechnung des Fonds oder durch die Verwaltungsgesellschaft den gesetzlichen Vorschriften und den Bestimmungen des
Verwaltungsreglements gemäß erfolgt;

- bei allen Geschäften, die sich auf das Fondsvermögen beziehen, der Gegenwert innerhalb der üblichen Fristen bei ihr

eingeht;

- die Erträge des Fondsvermögens den Bestimmungen des Verwaltungsreglements gemäß verwendet werden;
- die Berechnung des Inventarwertes und des Wertes der Anteile gemäß den gesetzlichen Vorschriften und den

Bestimmungen des Verwaltungsreglements erfolgt;

- börsennotierte Wertpapiere, Finanzterminkontrakte, Optionen, Bezugs- und Zuteilungsrechte höchstens zum

Tageskurs gekauft und mindestens zum Tageskurs verkauft werden sowie nicht an einer Börse notierte Wertpapiere
und Optionen zu einem Preis gekauft bzw. verkauft werden, der nicht in einem offensichtlichen Mißverhältnis zu ihrem
tatsächlichen Wert steht.

Die Depotbank wird den Weisungen der Verwaltungsgesellschaft Folge leisten, es sei denn, daß sie gegen die gesetz-

lichen Vorschriften oder die Vertragsbedingungen verstoßen.

Die Depotbank zahlt der Verwaltungsgesellschaft aus den gesperrten Konten des Fonds nur die in diesem Verwal-

tungsreglement festgesetzte Vergütung.

Die Depotbank entnimmt den gesperrten Konten nur nach Zustimmung der Verwaltungsgesellschaft die ihr gemäß

diesem Verwaltungsreglement zustehende Vergütung. Die in Artikel 11 des Verwaltungsreglements aufgeführten
sonstigen zu Lasten des Fonds zu zahlenden Kosten bleiben hiervon unberührt.

Soweit gesetzlich zulässig, ist die Depotbank berechtigt und verpflichtet, im eigenen Namen:
- Ansprüche der Anteilinhaber gegen die Verwaltungsgesellschaft oder eine frühere Depotbank geltend zu machen;
- gegen Vollstreckungsmaßnahmen Dritter Widerspruch zu erheben und vorzugehen, wenn in das Fondsvermögen

wegen eines Anspruchs vollstreckt wird, für den das Fondsvermögen nicht haftet.

Die Depotbank hat gegen das Fondsvermögen Anspruch auf die mit der Verwaltungsgesellschaft vereinbarten

Honorare, welche folgende Höchstgrenzen nicht überschreiten dürfen:

- eine Vergütung für die Wahrnehmung der Depotbankaufgaben und die Verwahrung des Fondsvermögens in Höhe

von 0,10 % p.a., die monatlich nachträglich auf das durchschnittliche Netto-Fondsvermögen eines jeden Monats zu
berechnen und auszuzahlen ist.

Als Provision wird die Bank dem Fonds folgende Sätze beim Kauf und Verkauf von Wertpapieren in Rechnung stellen:
- 0,5 % auf Aktien und Optionsscheine des ausmachenden Betrages 

22665

- 0,5 % des Prämienvolumens auf DTB- und OTC-Optionen 
- Euro 12,50 pro Kontrakt auf DTB-Futures
- auf Indexbaskets ab einem Volumen von 5 Mio. Euro 0,15 % des ausmachenden Betrages.
Für alle anderen Geschäfte wird eine Bearbeitungsgebühr von 0,3 % des Betrages jeder Wertpapiertransaktion für

Rechnung des Fonds erhoben.

Die Bank stellt dem Fonds bei Geschäften mit Dritten, wobei die Bank lediglich die Abwicklung vornimmt, einen

Betrag in Höhe von Euro 250,- pro Transaktion in Rechnung.

Darüber hinaus hat die Depotbank Anspruch auf Ersatz der von ihr verauslagten Fremdspesen und darf für außerge-

wöhnliche Dienstleistungen, die bei normalem Geschäftsablauf nicht auftreten, eine Bearbeitungsgebühr in Rechnung
stellen.

Art. 8. Berechnung des Inventarwertes.
Der Anteilwert (im folgenden «Inventarwert» genannt) lautet auf Euro. Er wird unter Aufsicht der Depotbank von

der Verwaltungsgesellschaft oder in Luxemburg von einem von ihr Beauftragten an jedem Bankarbeitstag, der sowohl in
Luxemburg als auch in Frankfurt am Main ein Börsentag ist (im folgenden «Bewertungstag» genannt) errechnet.

Die Berechnung erfolgt durch Teilung des Netto-Fondsvermögens durch die Zahl der am Bewertungstag im Umlauf

befindlichen Anteile. Das Netto-Fondsvermögen wird nach folgenden Grundsätzen berechnet:

a) Wertpapiere und Optionen darauf, die an einer Wertpapierbörse notiert sind, werden zum letzten verfügbaren

Kurs bewertet;

b) Wertpapiere und Optionen darauf, die nicht an einer Wertpapierbörse notiert sind, die aber aktiv an einem

anderen geregelten Markt gehandelt werden, werden zu dem Kurs bewertet, der nicht geringer als der Geldkurs und
nicht höher als der Briefkurs zur Zeit der Bewertung sein darf und den die Verwaltungsgesellschaft für den bestmö-
glichen Kurs hält, zu dem die Wertpapiere bzw. Optionen verkauft werden können;

c) Finanzterminkontrakte und Optionen darauf werden zum letzten verfügbaren Kurs der entsprechenden Börsen

bewertet und die sich zu den Einstandswerten ergebenden nicht realisierten Gewinne und Verluste als Forderungen
oder Verbindlichkeiten betrachtet;

d) falls diese jeweiligen Kurse nicht marktgerecht sind, werden die Wertpapiere, ebenso wie die sonstigen gesetzlich

zulässigen Vermögenswerte zum jeweiligen Verkehrswert bewertet, wie ihn die Verwaltungsgesellschaft nach Treu und
Glauben und allgemein anerkannten, von Wirtschaftsprüfern nachprüfbaren Bewertungsregeln, festlegt;

e) hinzugerechnet werden die aufgelaufenen Stückzinsen bei verzinslichen Wertpapieren bzw. Geldmarktinstru-

menten;

f) die flüssigen Mittel werden zum Nennwert zuzüglich Zinsen bewertet.
Alle auf eine andere Währung als Euro lautende Vermögenswerte werden zum letzten verfügbaren Devisenmittelkurs

in Euro umgerechnet.

Auf die ordentlichen Nettoerträge wird ein Ertragsausgleich gerechnet.
Falls außergewöhnliche Umstände eintreten, welche die Bewertung gemäß den oben aufgeführten Kriterien

unmöglich oder unsachgerecht machen, ist die Verwaltungsgesellschaft ermächtigt, andere von ihr nach Treu und
Glauben festgelegte, allgemein anerkannte und von Wirtschaftsprüfern nachprüfbare Bewertungsregeln zu befolgen, um
eine sachgerechte Bewertung des Fondsvermögens zu erreichen.

Die Verwaltungsgesellschaft kann bei umfangreichen Rücknahmeanträgen, die nicht aus den liquiden Mitteln und zuläs-

sigen Kreditaufnahmen des Fonds befriedigt werden können, nach vorheriger Genehmigung durch die Depotbank, den
Inventarwert bestimmen, indem sie dabei die Kurse des Bewertungstages zugrunde legt, an dem sie für den Fonds die
Wertpapiere verkaufte, die je nach Lage verkauft werden mußten. In diesem Falle wird für gleichzeitig eingereichte
Zeichnungs- und Rücknahmeanträge dieselbe Berechnungsweise angewandt.

TOP MANAGER, Fonds Commun de Placement.

MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS

1) The Trust

TOP MANAGER (hereafter referred to as the Trust) organised under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg

as a mutual investment fund (fonds commun de placement), is an unincorporated co-proprietorship of securities and
other assets (hereinafter referred to as securities), managed in the interest of its co-owners (hereafter referred to as
the shareholders) by IBJ FUND MANAGEMENT (LUXEMBOURG) S.A. (hereafter referred to as the Management
Company), a company incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg and having its registered office in Luxembourg. The
assets of the Trust, which are held in custody by the INDUSTRIAL BANK OF JAPAN (LUXEMBOURG) S.A. (hereafter
referred to as the Custodian) are segregated from those of the Management Company and from those of any other
funds managed by the Management Company. By the acquisition of shares of the Trust, any shareholder fully accepts
these management regulations which determine the contractual relationship between the shareholders, the Management
Company and the Custodian.

The Trust will be an umbrella fund consisting of different Funds (as defined hereafter) to the created pursuant to

Article 4).

2) The Management Company

The Trust is managed on behalf of the shareholders by the Management Company which shall have its registered

office in Luxembourg.

The Management Company is invested with the broadest powers to administer and manage the Trust, subject to the

restrictions set forth in Article 6) hereafter, on behalf of the shareholders, including but not limited to, the purchase,
sale, subscription, exchange and receipt of securities and the exercise of all the rights attached directly or indirectly to
the assets of the Trust.

The Board of Directors of the Management Company shall determine the investment policy of each Fund.
The Board of Directors of the Management Company may appoint a general manager or managers and/or adminis-

trative agents to implement the investment policy and administer and manage the assets of the Trust.

The Management Company may obtain investment information, advice and other services, remuneration for which

will be at the Trust’s or the Fund’s charge to the extent provided herein.

3) The Custodian

The Management Company shall appoint and terminate the appointment of the Custodian. The INDUSTRIAL BANK

OF JAPAN (LUXEMBOURG) S.A., a corporation organised under the laws of Luxembourg with its head office in Luxem-
bourg, has been appointed Custodian.

The Custodian or the Management Company may terminate the appointment of the Custodian at any time upon 90

days’ written notice delivered by the one to the other.

In the event of termination of the appointment of the Custodian, the Management Company will use its best endea-

vours to appoint within 60 days of such termination, a new custodian who will assume the responsibilities and functions
of the Custodian under these Management Regulations. Pending the appointment of a new Custodian, the Custodian
shall take all necessary steps to ensure good preservation of the interests of the shareholders. After termination as
aforesaid, the appointment of the Custodian shall continue thereafter for such period as may be necessary for the
transfer of all assets of the Trust to the new Custodian. The Custodian shall assume its functions and responsibilities in
accordance with the law of 30th March, 1988 on collective investment undertakings.

All cash and securities constituting the assets of the Trust shall be held by the Custodian on behalf of the shareholders

of the Trust. The Custodian may entrust banks and financial institutions with the custody of such securities. The
Custodian may hold securities in accounts with such clearing houses as the Custodian may determine. It will have the
normal duties of a bank with respect to the Trust’s deposits of cash and securities. The Custodian may only dispose of
the assets of the Trust and make payments to third parties on behalf of the Trust on receipt of instructions from the
Management Company or its appointed agents.

Upon receipt of instructions from the Management Company or its appointed agents, the Custodian will perform all

acts of disposal with respect to the assets of the Trust.

The Custodian is entitled to such fees as will be determined from time to time by agreement between the

Management Company and the Custodian. Such fee is based on the net assets of the Trust or the Funds.

22667

4) The Funds

The Management Company may, from time to time, with the consent of the Custodian, create Funds (collectively

«Funds» and «individually Fund»), which have different investment policies. The shares issued by the Management
Company in relation to each Fund shall constitute shares of a class separate from the other Share classes created in
relation to other Funds.

A separate portfolio of investments and assets will be maintained for each Fund. The different portfolios will be

separately invested in accordance with an investment policy fixed for each Fund.

Upon creation of a Fund, these Management Regulations shall be completed by an appendix containing the name and

investment policy of the Fund concerned as well as any other possible specificities of the Fund.

Any Fund may be dissolved upon decision of the Management Company with the consent of the Custodian as more

fully described in Article 19) hereafter.

5) Investment Policy

The general investment objective of the Trust and its Funds, is to invest in TOP MANAGERS SELECTION (TMS), a

mutual investment umbrella fund organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and other undertakings
for collective investment of the open-ended type (UCIs) investing in transferable securities and instruments, money
market instruments and other liquid assets in accordance with the allocation strategies set forth below. The Funds are
intended to be long term investments.

TMS offers investors a range of portfolios with different investment policies where each portfolio is managed by a

portfolio manager appointed by the Management Company upon recommendation of NOMURA SECURITIES GLOBAL
INVESTMENT ADVISORS, INC. (NSGIA) in its role as managers of manager of TMS.

At the date of this Prospectus, the existing portfolios of TMS and their respective portfolio managers are:

In the future, additional portfolios may be created within TMS, although there can be no assurance that this will occur.
The investment strategies for the Funds are intended to employ quantitative modeling techniques, which are designed

to simulate or represent certain economic and market dynamics and derive an optimized fund, which may include
currency hedging. There are risk factors which should be considered prior to investment in the Funds. Limitations are
inherent to any quantitative modeling technique due to the necessity of incorporating assumptions, which may oversim-
plify or fail to accurately reflect the actual market dynamics of the underlying investments in various conditions. Signi-
ficant inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, the past returns achieved by a portfolio manager of a
relevant TMS portfolio, which are derived from a product similar to that TMS portfolio, the past returns of a relevant
TMS portfolio itself, the past returns of other UCIs in which the Fund may invest, the past returns of relevant currencies
and/or the past returns of relevant market indexes. The model may also incorporate expected future returns derived
from quantitative and qualitative analysis. See RISK FACTORS for a further discussion on other limitations of the Funds.

Qualitative analysis is utilized to refine the inputs to and interpret the output from the quantitative models in order

to derive an optimized portfolio allocation. The qualitative analysis that the Asset Allocation Advisor may perform
includes, but is not limited to, analysis of macroeconomic and political conditions, international capital flows, business
cycles, market trends and other issues which the Asset Allocation Advisor considers relevant to the investment process.
The Asset Allocation Advisor will develop an optimized asset allocation strategy (which may or may not include a
currency hedging strategy) that he believes to be most likely to achieve the investment objectives of the particular Fund
given the Asset Allocation Advisor’s approximation of future market dynamics and the investments available to such
Fund.

The optimized asset allocation (and, if applicable, currency hedging) strategy is evaluated by the Asset Allocation

Advisor’s Investment Policy Committee before an investment recommendation is made. The Investment Policy
Committee will recommend an asset allocation, which may or may not include a currency hedging strategy, to the
Management Company regarding the investment of the Fund’s assets. The Asset Allocation Advisor will periodically
review the Fund investments and decide whether or not to recommend that the Management Company rebalance or
alter the asset allocation (and, if applicable, currency hedging) strategy.

The annual performance of the Funds shall be derived from the performance of the relevant Portfolio managers, the

overall asset class and the currency hedge transactions, if applicable. No models can incorporate all real world events
nor can they perfectly predict future returns. It is likely that the models themselves or some or all of the assumptions
and forecasts incorporated into the models employed by the Asset Allocation Advisor may fail to accurately predict
Fund returns, and therefore, the total return of the Fund may not be maximized and/or risk may not be controlled.

22668

The name and investment policy and objectives of each Fund are set out in the Appendix to this Management Regula-

tions relating to the Fund concerned.

6) Investment Restrictions

While managing the assets of the Funds, the Management Company, or its appointed agents, shall comply with the

following restrictions:

<i>I. Direct Investments

1) The Management Company may not, on behalf of a Fund, invest in securities of any one issuer, if the value of the

holdings of a Fund in the securities of such issuer exceeds 10% of such Fund’s total net assets, except that such
restriction shall not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by Member States of the OECD or their local authorities
or public international bodies with EU, regional or world-wide scope.

2) The Management Company may not invest, on behalf of any Fund, in securities of any single issuer if, as a result of

such investment, the Trust owns more than 10% of any class of securities issued by any single issuer. The Management
Company may not purchase securities of any company or other body if, upon such purchase, the Trust, together with
other investment funds which are managed by the Management Company, would own more than 15 % of any class of
the securities of such company or body. This restriction shall not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by member
States of the OECD or their local authorities or public international bodies with EU, regional or world-wide scope. The
aforesaid limitations of 10 % and 15 %, to the extent that they refer to a specific kind of securities or a specific class of
securities, shall not prevent any Fund from subscribing to 100 % of one issue of certificates of deposit or of commercial
paper of one specific issuer.

3) The Management Company may not, on behalf of a Fund, make investments for the purpose of exercising control

or management.

4) The Management Company may, on behalf of a Fund, maintain a short position in securities, to the extent the total

value of such short positions shall not exceed the total net assets of the Fund.

5) The Management Company may not, on behalf of a Fund, borrow other than borrowings which in the aggregate

do not exceed 10 % of the total net assets of such Fund, which borrowings may, however, only be made on a temporary
basis; further, the Management Company may not invest, on behalf of a Fund, more than 10 % of the total net assets of
such Fund in partly paid securities

6) The Management Company may not, on behalf of a Fund, invest more than 15 % of the net assets of such Fund in

securities which are not traded on an official stock exchange or other regulated market, except that such restriction
shall not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by Member States of the OECD or their local authorities or public
international bodies with EU, regional or world-wide scope; provided however that this restriction shall not apply to
money market instruments which are traded regularly.

<i>II. Investments in Undertakings for collective investment (UCIs)

a) such UCIs must be subject to diversification rules similar to those applicable to UCIs organized under Luxembourg

law.

b) The UCIs in which the Funds will invest may not have as the main investment objective to invest in other UCIs.
c) Investments by any Fund in UCIs organised in the EU member countries, the United States of America, Canada,

Switzerland, Japan and Hong Kong may not lead to an excessive concentration of risks except if specifically provided in
the Appendix to the Prospectus of the Fund concerned.

d) If investments are made in UCIs organised in countries other than EU member countries, United States of America,

Canada, Switzerland, Japan and Hong Kong, such investments are subject to the following additional conditions:

(i) the total of such investments may not exceed 35 % of the net assets of each Fund;
(ii) investments by any Fund in any one of such UCIs may not exceed 10% of the net assets of such Fund;
(iii) the Trust may not acquire more than 10% of the shares or units of any such UCI.

<i>III. Techniques and Instruments

The Management Company may employ, on behalf of a Fund, the following portfolio management techniques and

instruments relating to transferable securities in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements provided that such
techniques or instruments are used for the purpose of efficient portfolio management.

1. Transactions relating to financial futures
The Management Company may invest, on behalf of a Fund, in financial futures contracts, provided that: a) for the

purpose of hedging the risk of the fluctuation of the value of the portfolio securities, the Management Company, on
behalf of a Fund, may have short sale positions in respect of financial futures contracts not exceeding the value of the
corresponding investments of such Fund; and b) for the purpose of efficient portfolio management, the Management
Company, on behalf of a Fund, may purchase financial futures contracts, provided that sufficient liquid assets such as cash,
short dated debt securities or instruments or securities to be disposed of at a predetermined value exist within such
Fund in an amount equal to the notional value of any such futures positions.

2. Options on transferable securities
The Management Company may purchase, on behalf of a Fund, put or call options on securities provided that such

options are quoted on an exchange or traded on a regulated market, and the acquisition price of such options does not
exceed, in terms of premiums paid, 15 % of the total net assets of such Fund;

The Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may sell covered call options provided that the aggregate of the

exercise prices of such covered call options does not exceed 15 % of the net assets of the relevant Fund. The
Management Company, on behalf of the Trust may sell put options on securities if the relevant Fund holds sufficient
liquid assets to cover the aggregate of the exercize prices of such options sold.

22669

The Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may enter into OTC option transactions with highly rated financial

institutions specializing in this type of transaction if such transactions are more advantageous to the Fund than similar
exchange traded options or if exchange traded options having the required features are not available.

The Management Company may also purchase, on behalf of a Fund, yield curve options provided that the acquisition

price does not exceed, in terms of premiums paid, 15% of the total net assets of such Fund.

The Management Company may also sell covered call (or put) yield curve options provided that the aggregate of the

exercise prices of such covered call (or put) options does not exceed, in terms of premiums paid, 15% of the total net assets
of such Fund. A call (or put) yield curve option is covered if the Fund holds another call (or put) option on the spread between
the same two securities and segregates cash equivalents sufficient to cover the Fund’s net liability under the two options.

3. Techniques and instruments to hedge currency risks
The Management Company may, on behalf of a Fund, for the purpose of hedging currency risks, sell or purchase

currency futures contracts, enter into swap contracts and forward currency contracts or sell or purchase call or put
options on currencies provided that these transactions involve contracts which are traded on a regulated market, except
that the Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may also enter into forward sales or purchases of currencies on
the basis of private agreements with highly rated financial institutions specialized in these types of transactions. The
Management Company may engage in crosshedging by entering into transactions to purchase or sell one or more
currencies that are expected to decline in value relative to other currencies to which a Fund has or in which the
Management Company expects a Fund to have exposure. To reduce the effect of currency fluctuations on the value of
existing or anticipated holdings of portfolio securities, the Management Company may also engage in «proxy hedging».
Proxy hedging is used when the currency to which a Fund’s investments are exposed is difficult or relatively inefficient
to hedge against the reference currency of such Fund. Proxy hedging entails entering into forward contracts to sell a
currency, the changes in the value of which are generally considered to be linked to a currency or currencies in which
some or all of a Fund’s securities are or are expected to be denominated, and to buy any currency within the investment
policy of the Fund concerned. The Management Company shall not enter into forward currency contracts, currency
swap agreements or currency futures and option transactions for amounts exceeding, at the time the contracts or
transactions are executed, the net assets of the Fund concerned.

The Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may enter into OTC option transactions with highly rated financial

institutions specializing in this type of transaction if such transactions are more advantageous to the Fund than similar
exchange traded options or if exchange traded options having the required features are not available.

4. Techniques and instruments to manage interest rate risks
The Management Company may, on behalf of a Fund, sell or purchase interest rate or bond futures contracts for the

purpose of achieving a hedge against interest rate fluctuations and/or efficient portfolio management. It may also for the
same purpose sell or purchase call or put options on interest rates, bonds or futures thereof or enter into interest rates
swaps by private agreement with highly rated financial institutions specialized in these types of transactions. The
aggregate notional value of the commitments relating to futures contracts, options and swap transactions on interest
rates or bonds may not at the time of execution exceed the aggregate estimated market value of the assets to be hedged
and/or held by a Fund in the currency corresponding to those contracts.

The Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may enter into OTC option transactions with highly rated financial

institutions specializing in this type of transaction if such transactions are more advantageous to the Fund than similar
exchange traded options or if exchange traded options having the required features are not available.

5. Techniques and instruments to manage other portfolio risks
The Management Company may enter into swap agreements designed to increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure

to mortgage securities, corporate borrowing rates, or other factors, such as securities prices, index prices or inflation
rates. For swap transactions designed to hedge exposure to a particular type of investment or market factor, the
aggregate notional value of the swap agreements relating to such types of investment or market factors may not, at the
time of execution, exceed the aggregate estimated market value of the assets to be hedged. For transactions designed
to increase exposure to a particular type of investment or market factor, the relevant Fund must hold cash or cash
equivalents in an amount equivalent to the aggregate notional value of the swap agreements relating to such types of
investment or market factors in the currency corresponding to the swap agreements.

6. Transactions relating to options on stock indexes
The Management Company may invest, on behalf of a Fund, in index options provided that:
a) for the purpose of hedging the risk of the fluctuation of a Fund’s investments, the Management Company, on behalf

of such Fund, may sell or purchase call or put options on stock indexes. In such event, the relevant stock index option
shall not exceed, together with outstanding commitments in financial futures contracts sold for the same purpose, the
aggregate value of the portion of the securities portfolio to be hedged; and 

b) for the purpose of efficient Fund management, the Management Company, on behalf of such Fund, may sell or

purchase call options on stock indexes mainly in order to facilitate changes in the allocation of the Fund’s assets between
markets or in anticipation of or in a significant market sector advance, provided that the notional value of the relevant
stock index options is covered by cash, short dated debt securities and instruments (other than the liquid assets which
may have to be held by a Fund pursuant to the foregoing restrictions) or securities to be disposed of at predetermined
prices; provided, however, that the aggregate acquisition cost (in terms of premiums paid) of options on securities and
stock index options purchased by the Management Company, on behalf of such Fund, shall not exceed 15 % of the net
assets of such Fund.

The Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may enter into OTC option transactions with highly rated financial

institutions specializing in this type of transaction if such transactions are more advantageous to the Fund than similar
exchange traded options or if exchange traded options having the required features are not available.

22670

7. Lending of portfolio securities
The Management Company may lend each Fund’s securities to specialized banks, credit institutions and other highly

rated financial institutions, or through recognized clearing institutions such as Cedel or Euroclear. The lending of
securities shall be made for periods not exceeding 30 days. Loans shall be secured continuously by collateral consisting
of cash, and/or of securities issued or guaranteed by member states of the OECD or by their local authorities which at
the conclusion of the lending agreement, must be at least equal to the value of the securities lent. The collateral must be
blocked in favor of the relevant Fund until termination of the lending contract. Lending transactions may not be carried
out on more than 50% of the aggregate market value of the securities of the Fund, provided however that this limit is
not applicable where the relevant Fund has the right to terminate the lending contract at any time and obtain restitution
of the securities lent. Any transaction expenses in connection with such loans may be charged to the relevant Fund.

8. When-issued securities and delayed delivery transactions
Each Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued basis, and it may purchase or sell securities for delayed delivery.

These transactions occur when securities are purchased or sold by the Fund with payment and delivery taking place in
the future to secure what is considered an advantageous yield and/or price to the Fund at the time of entering into the
transactions. Each Fund shall maintain a segregated account with its custodian of cash or liquid securities of govern-
mental entities in an aggregate amount equal to that of its commitments in connection with such purchase transactions.

9. Repurchase agreements
Each Fund may invest in repurchase agreements or engage in reverse repurchase agreements with highly rated

financial institutions specialized in these types of transactions. During the duration of the repurchase agreement, the
Management Company on behalf of a Fund may not sell the securities which are the subject of the agreement before the
repurchase by the counterparty or the expiration of the repurchase period. Further, the Fund must ensure that it is at
all times capable to meet its obligation to repurchase its Shares upon request of its Shareholders. Under repurchase
agreements, the counterparty enters into an agreement with the Fund to sell and repurchase the securities at a mutually
agreed upon time and price, thereby determining the yield during the term of the agreement. This investment technique
permits the Fund to earn a fixed rate of return insulated from market fluctuations during such period. The Fund shall
take delivery of the securities that are subject to the repurchase agreement. Under reverse repurchase agreements the
Fund enters into an agreement with a counterparty to sell and repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon time
and price. This investment technique permits the Fund to borrow at a fixed interest rate during such period.

10. Dollar rolls
Each Fund may enter into dollar rolls, in which the Fund sells mortgage backed or other securities for delivery in the

current month and simultaneously contracts to purchase substantially similar securities on a specified future date. In the
case of dollar rolls involving mortgage backed securities, the mortgage backed securities that are purchased will be of
the same type and will have the same interest rate as those sold, but will be supported by different pools of mortgages.
The Fund forgoes principal and interest paid during the roll period on the securities sold in a dollar roll, but the Fund is
compensated by the difference between the current sales price and the lower price for future purchase as well as by any
interest earned on the proceeds of the securities sold. The Fund also could be compensated through the receipt of fee
income equivalent to a lower forward price.

The Management Company need not comply with the investment limit percentages laid down above when exercising

subscription rights attached to securities which form part of the assets of a Fund.

If such percentages are exceeded for reasons beyond the control of the Management Company or as a result of the

exercise of subscription rights, the Management Company must adopt as a priority objective for its sales transactions
for the Fund concerned the remedying of that situation, taking due account of the interests of the relevant Fund’s
shareholders.

The Management Company, acting on behalf of the Funds, shall not sell, purchase or loan securities except the shares

of the Funds, or receive loans, to or from (a) the Management Company (b) its affiliated companies (c) any director of
the Management Company or its affiliated companies or (d) any major shareholder thereof (meaning a shareholder who
holds, on his own account whether in his own or other name (as well as a nominee s name), 10 % or more of the total
issued outstanding shares of such a company) acting as principal or for their own account unless the transaction is made
within the restrictions set forth hereabove, and, either (i) at a price determined by current publicly available quotations,
or (ii) at competitive prices or interest rates prevailing from time to time, on internationally recognised securities
markets or internationally recognised money markets.

The Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may not grant loans or act as guarantor in favour of third parties.
The Management Company, on behalf of a Fund, may impose additional restrictions which will be set out in the

Appendix relating to the Fund concerned.

The Management Company may from time to time impose further investment restrictions as shall be compatible with

or in the interest of the shareholders, in order to comply with the laws and regulations of the countries where the
shares of the Funds are placed.

7) Issue of Shares

Shares of a Fund shall be issued by the Management Company subject to payment therefor to the Custodian within

such period thereafter as the Management Company may from time to time determine.

Subscription requests may be made for a number of shares or for a Japanese Yen amount.
All shares of each Fund have equal rights and privileges. Each Share of each Fund is, upon issue, entitled to participate

equally with all other shares of such Fund in any distribution upon declaration of dividends in respect of such Fund
income and realised and unrealised investment gains and repurchase and proceeds in a liquidation of such Fund.

22671

The Management Company shall issue, for each Fund, shares in registered form only. Shareholdings shall be registered

by book entry and no physical share certificates will be issued. Shareholders shall receive a confirmation on their holding
instead.

Confirmations of shareholding shall be delivered by the Management Company provided that payment therefor has

been received by the Custodian.

The Management Company shall comply, with respect to the issuing of shares, with the laws and regulations of the

countries where these shares are offered. The Management Company may, at its discretion, discontinue temporarily,
cease definitely or limit the issue of shares at any time to persons or corporate bodies resident or established in certain
countries or territories. The Management Company may prohibit certain persons or corporate bodies from acquiring
shares, if such a measure is necessary for the protection of the shareholders as a whole and the Trust.

The Management Company may:
(a) reject at its discretion any application for purchase of shares;
(b) repurchase at any time the shares held by shareholders who are excluded from purchasing or holding shares.
More specifically:
a) The Management Company will not promote the sale of the Trust’s shares to the public within the EU, or any part

of it.

b) None of the shares is registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the «1933 Act»).

Except as described below, none of the shares may be offered, sold, transferred or delivered, directly or indirectly, in
the United States of America or any of its territories or possessions or areas subject to its jurisdiction including the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico («the United States»), or to any citizen or resident thereof (including any corporation,
partnership or other entity created or organised in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision
thereof), or any estate or trust, other than an estate or trust the income of which from sources outside the United
States (which is not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States) is not
included in gross income for the purposes of computing United States federal income tax («U.S. Person»).

The Trust is not registered under the United States Investment Company Act of 1940 («the Investment Company

Act»). The Management Company will not knowingly permit the number of holders of shares in any Fund who are U.S.
persons or are in the United States to exceed 100. Subject to the foregoing prohibitions, private sales of a portion of
the shares to a limited number of sophisticated institutional investors in the United States or which are U.S. persons may
from time to time be arranged under restrictions and other circumstances designed to preclude a distribution that
would otherwise require registration of the shares under the 1933 Act or cause the Trust to become subject to the
Investment Company Act or that would subject the Trust to U.S. taxation, including presentation by such investors,
prior to the delivery to them of shares, of a letter containing specified representations and agreements.

For the purpose of restricting or preventing the beneficial ownership of Trust shares by any U.S. person, as defined

above, except those U.S. Persons who purchase shares in a private placement, as provided above, the Management
Company or its agent may:

(a) decline to issue any shares and decline to register any transfer of a Share, where it appears to it that such registry

or transfer would or might result in beneficial ownership of such shares by a U.S. Person; and

(b) at any time require any person whose name is entered in, or any person seeking to register the transfer of shares

on, the Register of shareholders to furnish it with any information, supported by affidavit, which it may consider
necessary for the purpose of determining whether or not beneficial ownership of such shareholder’s shares rests in a
U.S. Person, or whether such registry will result in beneficial ownership of such shares by a U.S. Person; and

(c) where it appears to the Management Company that any U.S. person either alone or in conjunction with any other

person is a beneficial owner of shares, compulsorily repurchase or cause to be repurchased from any such shareholder
all shares held by such shareholder, in the following manner:

(i) the Management Company or its agent shall serve a notice (the purchase notice) upon the shareholder appearing

in the Register of shareholders as the owner of the shares to be purchased, specifying the shares to be purchased as
aforesaid, the manner in which the purchase price will be calculated and the name of the purchaser. Any such notice may
be served upon such shareholder by posting the same in a prepaid registered envelope addressed to such shareholder
at his address appearing in the books of the Trust. Immediately after the close of business on the date specified in the
purchase notice, such shareholder shall cease to be the owner of the shares specified in such notice and his name shall
be removed from the registration of such shares in the Register of shareholders;

(ii) the price at which each such Share is to be purchased (the purchase price) shall be an amount equal to the per

Share Net Asset Value of shares in the relevant Fund as at the applicable Valuation Day specified by the Management
Company;

(iii) payment of the purchase price will be made available to the former owner of such shares in Japanese Yen or, in

the discretion of the Management Company, in any other freely convertible currency at the rate of exchange for
Japanese Yen on the date of payment and will be deposited for payment to such owner with a bank in Luxembourg or
elsewhere (as specified in the purchase notice) upon final determination of the purchase price. Upon service of the
purchase notice as aforesaid such former owner shall have no further interest in such shares or any of them, nor any
claim against the Trust or its assets nor against the Management Company, the Custodian or any other person in respect
thereof, except the right to receive the purchase price (without interest) from such bank. Any funds receivable by a
shareholder under this paragraph, but not collected within a period of notice, may not thereafter be claimed and shall
revert to the relevant Fund. The Management Company shall have power from time to time to take all steps necessary
and to authorise such action on behalf of the Trust to perfect such reversion;

22672

(iv) the exercise by the Management Company of the power conferred by this Article shall not be questioned or

invalidated in any case, on the ground that there was insufficient evidence of ownership of hares by any person or that
the true ownership of any shares otherwise than appeared to the Management Company at the date of any purchase
notice, provided in such case the said powers were exercised by the Management Company in good faith.

8) Issue Price

The issue price per Share of each Fund will be based on the net asset value per Share of each Fund determined on the

applicable Valuation Day and calculated in accordance with Article 10) hereafter, plus a sales charge as may be deter-
mined from time to time by the Management Company.

Payment of the issue price shall be made to the Custodian within the number of days specified in the Appendix of the

relevant Fund following the respective Valuation Day on which the application for purchase of shares is received or
deemed to be received.

Valuation Day means for each Fund the days designated in the appendix of the relevant Fund.

9) Share Certificates

Any person or corporate body shall be eligible to participate in a Fund by subscribing for one or several shares,

subject, however, to the provisions contained in Article 7) of these Management Regulations. The Management
Company shall issue shares in registered form only. Share certificates will not be issued by the Management Company
and shareholders shall receive a confirmation on their shareholding instead.

10) Determination of Net Asset Value

The Net Asset Value per Share of each Fund is determined on every Valuation Day for the relevant Fund.
The Net Asset Value of shares of each Fund will be determined by the Management Company on each Valuation Day

by dividing the value of the assets of the relevant Fund less the liabilities (including any provisions considered by the
Management Company to be necessary or prudent) attributable to such Fund by the total number of shares of the
relevant Fund outstanding. To the extent possible, investment income, interest payable, fees and other liabilities
(including management fees) will be accrued daily.

For the purpose of determining the assets and liabilities of each Fund there shall be established a pool of assets for

each Fund in the following manner:

(a) the proceeds from the issue of shares of each Fund shall be applied in the books of the Trust to the pool of assets

established for that Fund and the assets and liabilities and income and expenditure attributable thereto shall be applied
to such pool subject to the provisions of this article;

(b) where any asset is derived from another asset, such derivative asset (i.e. dividends, interest and corporate actions)

shall be applied in the books of the Trust to the same pool as the assets from which it was derived and on each
revaluation of an asset, the increase or diminution in value shall be applied to the relevant pool;

(c) where the Trust incurs a liability which relates to any asset of a particular pool, such liability shall be allocated to

the relevant pool;

(d) in the case where any asset or liability of the Trust cannot be considered as being attributable to a particular pool,

such asset or liability shall be allocated to all the pools pro rata to the total Net Asset Values of the relevant Funds;
provided that all liabilities, whatsoever pool they are attributable to, shall unless otherwise agreed upon the creditors,
be binding upon the Trust as a whole;

(e) upon the record date for determination of the person entitled to any dividend declared on any Fund, the Net

Asset Value of shares of such Fund shall be reduced by the amount of such dividends.

If on any Valuation Day the Net Asset Value per Share of a Fund cannot be determined because of a temporary

breakdown of communications, or a temporary unavailability of market quotations of a Fund’s investments, the
Management Company may decide to use, for the purpose of determination of the issue and repurchase price, the net
asset value per Share of each Fund as determined on the preceding Valuation Day.

Unless otherwise provided in the Appendix of the relevant Fund, the assets of the Trust will be valued as follows:
(a) securities listed on a Stock Exchange or traded on any other regulated market will be valued at the last available

price on such Stock Exchange or market. If a security is listed on several Stock Exchanges or markets, the last available
price at the Stock Exchange or market which constitutes the main market for such securities, will be determining;

(b) securities not listed on any Stock Exchange or traded on any regulated market will be valued at their last available

transaction price;

(c) securities for which no price quotation is available or for which the price referred to in (a) and/or (b) is not repre-

sentative of the fair market value, will be valued prudently and in good faith on the basis of their reasonable foreseeable
sales prices;

(d) cash and other liquid assets will be valued at their amortised cost;
(e) units or shares in undertakings for collective investment are valued on the basis of the latest reported net asset

value. The latest reported net asset value may be adjusted in order to reflect market movements since the report date
in accordance with adjustment methods as may be determined by the Board of Directors;

(f) values expressed in a currency other than the reference currency of the concerned Fund shall be translated to that

currency at the average of the last buying and selling price for such currency.

11) Suspension of Determination of Net Assset Value

The Management Company may temporarily suspend the determination of the net asset value of any Fund and in

consequence the issue, repurchase and conversion (if applicable) of shares of any Fund in any of the following events:

22673

- when one or more Stock Exchanges or markets, which provide the basis for valuing a substantial portion of the

assets of such Fund, or when one or more foreign exchange markets in the currency in which a substantial portion of
the assets of the Fund is denominated, are closed otherwise than for ordinary holidays or if dealings therein are
restricted or suspended;

- when, as a result of political, economic, military or monetary events or any circumstances outside the responsibility

and the control of the Management Company, disposal of the assets of the Fund is not reasonably or normally
practicable without being seriously detrimental to the interests of the shareholders;

- in the case of a breakdown in the normal means of communication or of the computers used for the valuation of

any investment of the Fund or if, for any reason, the value of any asset of the Fund may not be determined as rapidly and
accurately as required;

- if, as a result of exchange restrictions or other restrictions affecting the transfer of funds, transactions on behalf of

the Fund are rendered impracticable or if purchases and sales of the Fund’s assets cannot be effected at normal rates of
exchange;

- in the case where it is impossible to determine the price of units or shares in undertakings for collective investment

which represent an important part of the portfolio of a Fund (in particular when the determination of the net asset value
of such undertakings for collective investment is suspended).

12) Repurchase

Unless otherwise provided in an Appendix hereto relating to a particular Fund, shareholders may at any time request

the repurchase of their shares.

Repurchase will be made at such net asset value per Share of the relevant Fund determined on the applicable

Valuation Day and determined in accordance with the terms of Article 10 above.

Payment of the repurchase price shall be made within the number of days specified in the Appendix of the relevant

Fund following the Valuation Day on which the application is received or deemed to be received. This payment may be
delayed in the case that due to market conditions or illiquidity of the investments of the relevant Fund, investments may
not be sold in a timely manner without prejudicing the repurchasing and/or remaining shareholders. In such circum-
stances, payment will be expedited to the extent possible.

The Management Company shall ensure that each Fund maintains an appropriate level of liquidity, so that under

normal circumstances repurchase of the shares of the Fund may be made promptly upon request by shareholders.

If total requests for repurchase on any Valuation Day (the «relevant Valuation Day») are received in respect of a

number of shares of any Fund which exceed 10 % of the total number of shares of that Fund outstanding on such
Valuation Day, the Management Company is entitled to defer all repurchase requests pro rata so that the 10 % level is
not exceeded. In addition if repurchase of shares or units of an undertaking for collective investment into which the
relevant Fund invests is deferred, the Management Company is also entitled to defer all repurchase requests relating to
the Fund pro rata. Any repurchase requests in respect of the relevant Valuation Day so reduced will be effected in
priority to subsequent repurchase requests received on the next Valuation Day, subject always to the 10 % limit.

A shareholder may not withdraw his request for repurchase except in the event of a suspension of the valuation of

assets of the Trust (as described in the section «Suspention of the determination of Net Asset Value» of shares herein)
and in such event a withdrawal shall be effective only if written notification is received by the Management Company
before the termination of the period of suspension. If the request is not so withdrawn the repurchase will be made on
the Valuation Day next following the end of suspension.

The Custodian must make payment only if no statutory provisions, such as exchange control regulations or other

circumstances outside the control of the Custodian, prohibit the transfer of the payment of the repurchase price to the
country where reimbursement was applied for.

13) Deferral of Repurchases

The provisions applicable in the context of TMS to delay the payment of repurchase proceeds or to defer repurchase

requests are also applicable to repurchase requests made by the Trust and are therefore also applicable to shareholders
of the Trust.

More specifically, if a shareholder in the Trust requests repurchase of his shares, the Trust will have to request

repurchase of the shares which it holds in TMS. If the payment of repurchase proceeds to the Trust is delayed due to
market conditions or illiquidity of the investments of the relevant portfolio of TMS, the payment of repurchase proceeds
to the Trust will be delayed and, accordingly, the payment of repurchase proceeds by the Trust to the shareholders will
be delayed in the same manner.

14) Conversions

Shareholders wishing to convert from shares of one Fund to shares of other Funds and vice versa will be entitled to

do so after 1st April, 2001 on any day which is a Valuation Day for the two Funds concerned by tendering an irrevocable
written conversion request. Such request should specify the number of shares to be converted, provided that the
number of shares to be converted shall be more than the minimum number designated in the appendix of each Fund.
The number of shares issued upon conversion will be based upon the respective Net Asset Value of the two Funds on
the applicable Valuation Day and shall be calculated as follows:

22674

N1 = NAV2 (1- X) x N2

NAV1

N1:

The number of shares to be issued upon conversion.
A share fraction shall not be issued. Any residual amount resulting from a share fraction will be forfeited 
to the benefit of the Fund to which shares are to be converted.

N2:

The number of shares requested for conversion.

NAV 1:

Net Asset Value as of the applicable Valuation Day of shares to be issued upon conversion

NAV 2:

Net Asset Value as of the applicable Valuation Day of shares requested for conversion.

X:

Conversion charge

A conversion charge shall be applicable if so provided for in the Appendix of the relevant Fund.
If, as a result of a conversion, the value of a shareholder’s remaining holding in a Fund would become less than one

share, the relevant shareholder shall be deemed to have requested the conversion of all of its shares.

Any conversion request should specify the number of shares to be converted, provided that the number of shares to

be converted shall be at least one share. Shareholders may request conversion of shares not more than 15 times during
each fiscal year of the Trust.

15) Charges of the Trust

The Management Company is entitled to receive, per Fund, a management fee at the rates set out in the Appendix

relating to the relevant Fund.

The investment adviser (if any) is entitled to receive, per Fund, an advisory fee at the rates set out in the Appendix

relating to the relevant Fund.

The Management Company shall appoint an Agent Company in Japan and may appoint one or more distributors in

Japan and elsewhere for marketing the shares of the Funds. Such Agent Company / distributors shall be entitled to
receive fees at the rates specified in the Appendix relating to the relevant Fund. Allocation among the distributors will
be decided based on the average of daily outstanding balance of such Fund during the relevant period sold by such distri-
butors.

custody of assets of the Funds, and of the Registrar and Transfer Agent, Administrative Agent, Domiciliary Agent and
Paying Agent;

5. legal expenses incurred by the Management Company or the Custodian while acting in the interests of the

shareholders;

6. the cost of preparing and/or filing the Management Regulations and all other documents concerning the Trust,

including registration statements, prospectuses and explanatory memoranda with all authorities (including local
securities dealers’ associations) having jurisdiction over the Trust or the offering of shares of the Trust; the cost of
preparing, in such languages as are necessary for the benefit of the shareholders (including the beneficial holders of the
shares), and distributing annual and semi-annual reports and such other reports or documents as may be required under
the applicable laws or regulations of the above-cited authorities; the cost of accounting, bookkeeping and calculating the
daily net asset value; the cost of preparing and distributing public notices to the shareholders; lawyers’ and auditor’s fees;
the costs incurred with the admission and the maintenance of the shares on the stock exchanges on which they are listed
(if listed); and all similar administrative charges, except, unless otherwise decided by the Management Company, all
advertising expenses and other expenses directly incurred in offering or distributing the shares.

All recurring charges will be charged first against income, then against capital gains and then against assets. The

charges other than recurring charges may be amortised over a period not exceeding five years.

16) Accounting Year, Audit

The accounts of the Trust are closed each year on the last day of February in each year and for the first time on 29th

February 2000.

The Management Company shall appoint an auditor who shall, with respect to the assets of the Trust, carry out the

duties prescribed by the law of 30th March, 1988 regarding collective investment undertakings.

The Management Company or its appointed agent shall prepare audited annual accounts and unaudited semi-annual

accounts for the Trust. The reports shall contain individual financial informations on each Fund expressed in the
reference currency of such Fund and consolidated financial informations on the Trust, expressed in Japanese Yen.

17) Dividends

The Management Company in respect of each Fund declare dividends as determined in the Appendix of the relevant

Fund.

No distribution may be made as a result of which the net assets of the Trust would become less than the minimum

of Luxembourg Francs 50,000,000.- as prescribed by Luxembourg law. Dividends not claimed within five years from their
due date will lapse and revert to the Trust.

22675

shareholders of such Fund will be allocated the net sales proceeds of the assets of the Fund or (ii) a Fund may be liqui-
dated at any time and shares of another Fund may be allocated to the shareholders of the Fund to be liquidated against
contribution in kind of the assets of such Fund (to be valued by an auditor’s report) to the other Fund. A liquidation and
contribution as contemplated in (ii) can only be made if such liquidation is justified by the size of the liquidated Fund, by
a change of the economic or political situation affecting the Fund or is made for any other reason to assure the best
interest of the shareholders concerned.

In case of a liquidation as described in (i) above, the effective date of the liquidation will be notified to shareholders

by mail or by fax.

Management Company and the Custodian may subject themselves and the Trust to the jurisdiction of courts of the
countries, in which the shares of the Trust are offered and sold, with respect to claims by investors resident in such
countries and with respect to matters relating to subscriptions and repurchases by shareholders resident in such
countries, to the laws of such countries. English shall be the governing language for these Management Regulations.

TOP MANAGER - I (MODERATE FUND) (the «Fund»).
2. Reference Currency.
Yen.
3. Investment Policy.
TOP MANAGER - I (MODERATE FUND) seeks to maximize total return in Yen terms over a long term horizon by

implementing an investment strategy that may or may not have an exposure to equity securities. The Fund may have an
exposure to fixed income securities of up to 100 % of its total Net Asset Value, and will attempt to maintain the
exposure to fixed income securities to be at least 40 % of its total Net Asset Value. Under normal circumstances, the
Fund will attempt to maintain an equity exposure (i.e. such exposure relative to investments in the TMS portfolios or
other UCIs for which the primary investment objective is investment in equity securities) within a range of 0 % to 60 %
of the Fund’s total Net Asset Value, depending upon the performance of the underlying portfolios in TMS and other
UCIs or investments in which the Fund may invest. Subscriptions to the Fund will be in Yen and will be converted to U.S.
Dollars for investment in the TMS portfolios or other UCIs that are US Dollar based. The Management Company may
engage in transactions to partially or fully hedge the risk of currency fluctuation between the Fund and the TMS
portfolios or other UCIs in which it invests. The Management Company expects to hedge this currency risk using
currency forward contracts, currency futures and/or currency options, the aggregate notional value of which is expected
to be within 30 % to 100 % of Net Asset Value of the Fund at the time of entering into such hedging transactions. The
Fund may invest up to 60 % of the total Net Asset Value at the time of purchase in TMS Portfolios and/or other UCIs
of which the primary investment objective is investment in equity securities. The Fund may invest up to 60 % of its total
Net Asset Value at the time of purchase in any one portfolio of TMS. For investment purposes as well as margin requi-
rements and/or settlement purposes related to currency hedging transactions, the Fund may maintain a significant
portion of the Net Asset Value in Yen and/or US Dollar denominated cash balances, which may be invested in short-
term money market instruments. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its total Net Asset Value at the time of purchase
in any one UCI other than TMS subject to the limits set forth herein under the section «Management Regulations» and

ACM PRINCIPAL PROTECTION FUND

<i>Sixth Addendum to the Management Regulations of

<i>ACM PRINCIPAL PROTECTION FUND

<i>describing the MANSURII DORIIMU 99-7

Following a decision of the Management Company made with the consent of the Custodian of ACM PRINCIPAL

PROTECTION FUND (the «Fund»), a fonds commun de placement under the laws of Luxembourg, a portfolio is
created within the Fund under the name ACM PRINCIPAL PROTECTION FUND - MANSURII DORIIMU 99-7
(the «Portfolio») and in connection with the Portfolio, the Fund shall issue Shares of class MANSURII DORIIMU 99-7 A
(«class A Shares»). The Portfolio shall have the following specific features:

Issues of Shares.
The initial offering period shall begin on June 21st, 1999 and end on July 14

th

, 1999.

The initial offering price of the Shares will be US Dollars 1,000 per Share plus a sales charge (exclusive of consumption

or other taxes, if any) not to exceed 3.25 % of the subscription price. The Management Company may limit subscrip-
tions for Shares to such maximum number of Shares as it shall determine.

After the Initial Offering Period no further Shares of the Portfolio will be issued.
If at the end of the Initial Offering Period applications totaling at least U.S. Dollars 100 million have not been received,

the Management Company may, at its discretion, either (i) terminate the offering and refund the subscription monies to
the subscribers, in which case the Portfolio would be dissolved, (ii) extend the Initial Offering Period for such time and
on such terms as may be determined by the Management Company, or (iii) waive the Minimum Application Requirement
and commence the operation of the Portfolio. Investors who have made applications will be informed by mail of the
termination of the offering or the extension of the Initial Offering Period within 10 days of such decision.

Repurchases of Shares of the Portfolio.
Shares may not be repurchased before July 20

th

, 2000. Beginning July 20

th

, 2000, repurchase will be allowed quarterly,

on January 20

th

, on April 20

th

, on July 20

th

and on October 20

th

of each year until October 20

th

, 2004 and then on any

Business Day from December 20

th

, 2004 until January 20

th

, 2005, provided the request is made no later than 5 p.m.

(Luxembourg time).

The Principal Protection Option Date shall be December 20

th

, 2004 and the Final Repurchase Date for the Shares of

the Portfolio will be January 20

th

, 2005.

Application for repurchase must be made in writing to the Management Company and received by the Management

Company prior to a deadline determined by the Management Company and published in the sales documents of the
Portfolio. Any repurchase request must be accompanied by the relevant Share certificates (if issued).

For any such repurchase prior to the Principal Protection Option Date, the repurchase price will be equal to the sum

of (a) the Redemption Percentage (as defined hereafter) multiplied by the value of the Managed Assets, (b) the

22680

Redemption Percentage multiplied by the value of the Principal Protection Assets and (c) the cost or benefit to the
Portfolio, as the case may be, under the terms of the Zero-Coupon Swap Agreement of terminating a portion of the
Swap under that agreement calculated as of the close of business (New York time) on the Business Day immediately
preceding such Redemption Date.

«Redemption Percentage» means a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Shares of the Portfolio being

repurchased or tendered pursuant to an Early Redemption or an Optional Tender (as defined below), respectively, and
the denominator of which is the number of Shares of the Portfolio outstanding immediately prior to such Early
Redemption or Optional Tender.

If on or after July 20

th

, 2003, (a) the sum of (i) the value of the Principal Protection Assets plus (ii) the cost or benefit

to the Portfolio, as the case may be, under the terms of the Zero-Coupon Swap Agreement of terminating a portion of
the Swap under that agreement on such date is equal or greater than the product of (x) 101.5 %, (y) US Dollars 1,000
and (z) the number of Shares of the Portfolio outstanding immediately prior to such date; and (b) the Principal
Protection Assets consist solely of cash or, with the written permission of the Principal Protection Provider, agreed cash
equivalents, then the Management Company may announce to the holders of Shares of the Portfolio the opportunity for
an optional tender at US Dollars 1,000 per Share, subject to certain provisions contained in such announcement (an
«Optional Tender»).

Payment of the repurchase proceeds will be made within five business days following the date on which the

repurchase price is determined.

The repurchase price following the Principal Protection Option Date will be equal to the Net Asset Value per Share

of the Portfolio.

The Custodian must make payment only if no statutory provisions, such as exchange control regulations or other

circumstances outside the control of the Custodian, prohibit the transfer of the payment of the repurchase price to the
country where reimbursement was applied for.

Shares of the Portfolio may not be converted into Shares of other portfolios of the Fund.
Investment Policy.
At least 70 % of the portfolios initial assets will be invested to provide the Redemption Assurance. The Principal

Protection Assets shall be managed in accordance with the provisions set out in the Management Regulations.

The Investment Manager may, from time to time, when and if it deems it to be appropriate transfer assets from the

Master Managed Assets Account to the Master Principal Protection Account.

The Managed Assets will be invested primarily in a portfolio of high yield debt securities of issuers located throughout

the world, including U.S. issuers and issuers in emerging countries. The investments may include structured notes or
derivative instruments that provide a return, and are subject to risks, equivalent to the return on and risks of high yield
debt securities. The non-investment grade securities in which the Portfolio invests may be denominated in various
currencies or multinational currency units, excluding however the Japanese Yen. Subject to the investment restrictions,
the Portfolio is not subject to any limitation on the portion of its assets which may be invested in any one country.

At least 50 % of the Net Assets of the Portfolio will at all times be invested in securities which fall under the definition

of «securities» in the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan, such as U.S. government securities, U.S. government agency
securities and certificates of deposit issued by non Japanese corporations.

In seeking to achieve a high level of current income through investments of the Managed Assets, the Portfolio will

invest primarily in a portfolio of high yield debt securities of issuers located throughout the world, including U.S. issuers
in emerging countries. In selecting its investments, the Portfolio intends to allocate its assets among three main types of
investments: (i) high yield non-investment grade debt securities of U.S. corporate issuers; (ii) non-investment grade debt
securities of issuers located in emerging market countries; and (iii) sovereign debt obligations issued by emerging
countries. The Portfolio may make each of these types of investments through structured notes or derivative instru-
ments that provide a return, and are subject to risks, equivalent to the return and risks of that type of investment
(«Structured Instruments»). However, the Portfolio is not prohibited from investing in other types of debt securities.
The non-investment grade securities in which the Portfolio invests may be denominated in various currencies or multi-
national currency units, excluding however, the Japanese Yen. Subject to the investment restrictions, the Portfolio is not
subject to any limitation on the portion of its assets which may be invested in any one country. The Portfolio may seek
to hedge against interest rate and currency fluctuations through the use of over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives,
including swaps, options, futures and currency transactions.

The non-investment grade debt securities of U.S. and non U.S. corporate issuers in which the Portfolio may invest,

either directly or through structured instruments, include bonds, debentures, bills and notes. These debt securities may
have equity features, such as conversion rights or warrants, which may provide the Portfolio with opportunities to
enhance its return on its investment. There is no minimum rating requirement with respect to the Portfolio’s invest-
ments in debt securities of corporate issuers.

The Portfolio’s investments in emerging market debt securities may consist of (i) debt securities or obligations issued

or guaranteed by governments, governmental agencies or instrumentalities and political subdivisions located in emerging
countries, (ii) debt securities or obligations issued by government-owned, controlled or sponsored entities located in
emerging countries, and (iii) obligations of issuers organized and operated for the purpose of restructuring the
investment characteristics of securities issued by any of the entities described above. Emerging market debt securities in
which the Portfolio may invest will not be required to meet a minimum rating standard and may not be rated for credit-
worthiness by any internationally recognized rating agency. As opportunities to invest in debt securities in other
emerging market countries develop, the Management Company expects to expand and diversify the portfolio invest-
ments of the Portfolio. Emerging market debt securities may take the form of bonds, debentures, bills, notes, conver-
tible securities, warrants, mortgage or other asset-backed securities and interests in entities.

22681

The Portfolio shall seek high current income plus overall total investment return by investing in debt instruments

denominated in various currencies (excluding Japanese Yen) and currency units on the basis of the potential capital
appreciation of such instruments in U.S. Dollars and the rates of income paid on such instruments. As a general matter,
in evaluating investments, the Management Company will consider, among other factors, the relative levels of interest
rates prevailing in various countries, the potential appreciation of such investments in their denominated currencies and,
for debt instruments not denominated in U.S. Dollars, the potential movement in the value of such currencies compared
to the U.S. dollar. In seeking capital appreciation, the Portfolio may invest in relatively low-yielding instruments in expec-
tation of favorable currency fluctuations or interest rate movements, thereby potentially reducing the Portfolio’s yield.
In seeking income, the Portfolio may invest in short-term instruments with relatively high yields (as compared to other
debt securities) notwithstanding that the Management Company does not anticipate that such instruments will
experience substantial capital appreciation.

The average maturity of the securities of the Fund will vary based upon an assessment of economic and market condi-

tions. The Management Company does not expect the average maturity of the Managed Assets to exceed 15 years.

The Portfolio is not restricted in the portion of its assets that may be invested in securities denominated in a parti-

cular currency, and a substantial portion of the Portfolio’s assets may be invested in non-U.S. dollar denominated
securities. The portion of the Portfolio’s assets invested in securities denominated in currencies other than the U.S.
dollar will vary depending on market conditions. The analysis of currencies is made independently of the analysis of
markets. Current account and capital account performance and real interest rates will be analyzed to adjust for shorter-
term currency flows.

The Portfolio may, as a temporary defensive measure or to provide for redemptions or in anticipation of investment

in foreign markets, hold cash or cash equivalents (in U.S. Dollars or foreign currencies) and short-term securities,
including money market securities.

The Portfolio may invest in securities, including structured instruments, for which there is no ready market. The

Portfolio may therefor not be readily able to sell such securities. Moreover, there may be contractual restrictions on
resale of securities.

The Principal Protection Option.
The Management Company shall arrange for a highly rated financial institution (the «Principal Protection Provider»)

to enter into an irrevocable principal protection option in favor of the Portfolio’s Custodian (the «Principal Protection
Option»). Further the Management Company shall enter into a zero-coupon swap agreement (the «Zero-Coupon Swap
Agreement») with the Principal Protection Provider.

Under the Principal Protection Option, the Custodian shall be entitled, on the Principal Protection Option Date (but

not before or after that date), to require that the Principal Protection Provider pay to the Custodian, on behalf of the
holders of Shares of the Portfolio, an amount equal to the shortfall, if any, between (x) the sum of (A) the value of the
assets in the Principal Protection Account as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Principal Protection Option
Date plus (B) the amount of the payment by the Principal Protection Provider under the Zero-Coupon Swap Agreement
on the Principal Protection Option Date, and (y) US Dollars 1,000.- per Share of the Portfolio (the «Original Purchase
Price») multiplied by the number of Shares of the Portfolio then outstanding.

Depending on market conditions, either the Principal Protection Provider may make an up-front payment to the

Management Company or the Management Company may make an up-front payment to the Principal Protection

er

l’activité normale au siège social ou la communication aisée de ce siège avec l’étranger se produiront ou seront
imminents, le siège social pourra être déclaré transféré provisoirement à l’étranger, sans que toutefois cette mesure ne
puisse avoir d’effet sur la nationalité de la société, laquelle, nonobstant ce transfert provisoire du siège, restera luxem-
bourgeoise.

La durée de la société est illimitée.
Art. 2. La société a pour objet la prise de participations, sous quelque forme que ce soit, dans d’autres sociétés

luxembourgeoises ou étrangères, ainsi que la gestion, le contrôle et la mise en valeur de ces participations.

Elle peut notamment acquérir par voie d’apport, de souscription, d’option, d’achat et de toute autre manière des

peut être renouvelée par une assemblée générale des actionnaires quant aux actions du capital autorisé qui d’ici là
n’auront pas été émises par le conseil d’administration.

A la suite de chaque augmentation de capital réalisée et dûment constatée dans les formes légales, le premier alinéa

de cet article se trouvera modifié de manière à correspondre à l’augmentation intervenue; cette modification sera
constatée dans la forme authentique par le conseil d’administration ou par toute personne qu’il aura mandatée à ces fins.

préside la réunion est prépondérante.

Le conseil peut déléguer tout ou partie de ses pouvoirs concernant la gestion journalière de la société ainsi que la

représentation de la société en ce qui concerne cette gestion à un ou plusieurs administrateurs, directeurs, gérants ou
autres agents, actionnaires ou non.

du délégué du conseil.

In the year nineteen hundred and ninety-nine, on the first of April,
Before Us Maître Emile Schlesser, notary public, residing in Luxembourg, 28, boulevard Grande-Duchesse Charlotte,

There appeared:

1. - PRIMECROWN 2000 LIMITED, a company under British laws, having its registered office in GB-London,
here represented by Mr Patrick Meunier, company manager, residing in Luxembourg,
by virtue of a proxy issued on March 17, 1999,
2. - Mr Sendjer Shefket, company manager, residing in GB-London,
here represented by Mr Patrick Meunier, previously named,
by virtue of a proxy issued on March 17, 1999. Said proxies, initialled ne varietur, will remain attached to the present

deed to be filed with the registration authorities.

Said appearing parties have established as follows the Articles of Incorporation of a holding company to be organized

between themselves:

Art. 1. There is hereby formed a corporation (société anonyme holding) under the name of E-Z LOCK HOLDING

S.A.

The registered office is established in Luxembourg.
If extraordinary events of a political, economic, or social character, likely to impair normal activity at the registered

office or easy communication between that office and foreign countries shall occur, or shall be imminent, the registered
office may be provisionally transferred abroad. Such temporary measure shall, however, have no effect on the nationality
of the corporation which, notwithstanding such provisional transfer of the registered office, shall remain a Luxembourg
corporation.

The corporation is established for an unlimited period.
Art. 2. The object of the corporation is the taking of participating interests, in whatsoever form in other, either

Luxembourg or foreign companies, and the management, control and development of such participating interests.

The corporation may in particular acquire all types of transferable securities, either by way of contribution,

subscription, option, purchase or otherwise, as well as realize them by sale, transfer, exchange or otherwise.

The corporation may also acquire and manage all patents and other rights deriving from these patents or comple-

mentary thereto.

22695

The corporation may borrow and grant any assistance, loan, advance or guarantee to companies in which it has a

direct and substantial interest.

The corporation shall not carry on any industrial activity nor maintain a commercial establishment open to the public.
In general, the corporation may take any measure and carry out any operation which it may deem useful to the

accomplishment and development of its purposes, remaining always, however, within the limits established by the Law
of July 31, 1929, concerning holding companies.

Art. 3. The corporate capital is fixed at fifty thousand dollars of the United States of America (USD 50,000.-), divided

into twenty-five thousand (25,000) shares with a par value of two dollars of the United States of America (USD 2.-) each.

The shares may be registered or bearer shares, at the option of the holder, except those shares for which Law

prescribes the registered form. The corporation’s shares may be created, at the owner’s option, in certificates repre-
senting single shares or two or more shares.

Should the corporate share capital be increased, the rights attached to the new shares will be the same as those

enjoyed by the old shares.

The company may repurchase its own shares under the conditions provided by Law.
The corporate share capital may be increased to five hundred thousand dollars of the United States of America (USD

500,000.-) by the creation and the issue of two hundred and twenty-five thousand (225,000) new shares with a par value
of two dollars of the United States of America (USD 2.-) each.

The board of directors is fully authorized and appointed:
- to render effective such increase of capital as a whole at once, by successive portions or by continuous issues of new

shares, to be paid up in cash, by contribution in kind, by conversion of shareholders’ claims, or following approval of the
annual general meeting of shareholders, by incorporation of profits or reserves into capital;

- to determine the place and the date of the issue or of the successive issues, the terms and conditions of subscription

and payment of the additional shares,

- to suppress or limit the preferential subscription right of the shareholders with respect to the above issue of supple-

mentary shares against payment in cash or by contribution in kind.

Such authorization is valid for a period of five years starting from the date of publication of the present deed and may

be renewed by a general meeting of shareholders with respect to the shares of the authorized capital which at that time
shall not have been issued by the board of directors.

As a consequence of such increase of capital so rendered effective and duly documented in notarial form, the first

paragraph of the present article will be amended such as to correspond to the increase so rendered effective; such
modification will be documented in notarial form by the board of directors or by any persons appointed for such
purposes.

Art. 4. The corporation shall be managed by a board of directors composed of at least three members, who need

not be shareholders.

The directors shall be appointed for a period not exceeding six years and they shall be reeligible; they may be

removed at any time.

In the event of a vacancy on the board of directors, the remaining directors have the right to provisionally fill the

vacancy, such decision to be ratified by the next general meeting.

Art. 5. The board of directors has full power to perform such acts as shall be necessary or useful to the corpora-

tion’s object. All matters not expressly reserved to the general meeting by Law or by the present Articles of Incorpo-
ration are within the competence of the board of directors.

The board of directors may elect a chairman; in the absence of the chairman, an other director may preside over the

meeting.

The board can validly deliberate and act only if the majority of its members are present or represented, a proxy

between directors, which may be given by letter, telegram, telex or telefax, being permitted. In case of emergency,
directors may vote by letter, telegram, telex or telefax.

Resolutions shall require a majority vote. In case of a tie, the chairman has a casting vote.
The board of directors may delegate all or part of its powers concerning the day-to-day management and the repre-

sentation of the corporation in connection therewith to one or more directors, managers or other officers; they need
not be shareholders of the company.

Delegation to a member of the board of directors is subject to a previous authorization by the general meeting.
The delegates of the board are named for the first time by the extraordinary general meeting.
The corporation is committed either by the joint signatures of any two directors or by the individual signature of the

delegate of the board.

Art. 6. The corporation shall be supervised by one or more auditors, who need not be shareholders; they shall be

appointed for a period not exceeding six years and they shall be reeligible; they may be removed at any time.

Art. 7. The corporations’s financial year shall begin on the first of January and shall end on the thirty-first of

December.

Art. 8. The annual general meeting shall be held in Luxembourg at the registered office or such other place as

indicated in the convening notices on the third Wednesday of the month of June at 2.00 p.m. If said day is a public
holiday, the meeting shall be held the next following working day.

Art. 9. Convening notices of all general meetings shall be made in compliance with the legal provisions. If all the

shareholders are present or represented and if they declare that they have had knowledge of the agenda submitted to
their consideration, the general meeting may take place without previous convening notices.

22696

The board of directors may decide that the shareholders desiring to attend the general meeting must deposit their

shares five clear days before the date fixed therefore. Every shareholder has the right to vote in person or by proxy,
who need not be a shareholder.

Each share gives the right to one vote.
Art. 10. The general meeting of shareholders has the most extensive powers to carry out or ratify such acts as may

concern the corporation.

It shall determine the appropriation and distribution of net profits.
The board of directors is authorized to pay interim dividends in accordance with the terms prescribed by Law.
Art. 11. The Law of August 10, 1915, on Commercial companies and the Law of July 31, 1929, on Holding

companies, as amended, shall apply insofar as these Articles of Incorporation do not provide for the contrary.

<i>Transitory disposition

1) The first fiscal year will begin on the date of formation of the Company and will end on the thirty-first of December

nineteen hundred and ninety-nine.

2) The first annual general meeting will be held in the year two thousand.

<i>Subscription and payment

shares …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… 24,999

2. - Mr Sendjer Shefket, previously named, one share……………………………………………………………………………………………………         1

All these shares have been entirely paid up by payments in cash, so that the sum of fifty thousand dollars of the United

States of America (USD 50,000.-) is forthwith at the free disposal of the corporation, as has been proved to the notary. 

<i>Statement

The notary drawing up the present deed declares that the conditions set forth in Article 26 of the Law on

Commercial Companies have been fulfilled and expressly bears witness to their fulfilment.

<i>Estimate of costs

The parties have estimated the costs, expenses, fees and charges, in whatsoever form, which are to be borne by the

corporation or which shall be charged to it in connection with its incorporation, at about seventy thousand Luxembourg
francs (LUF 70,000.-).

For the purpose of the registration, the present capital is valued at one million eight hundred seventy-one thousand

three hundred and thirty Luxembourg francs (LUF 1,871,330.-).
