*The manager is entitled to a performance-related fee if the cumulative growth of net assets, since 1 July 2000, has exceeded a target rate of 7.5% per annum. The fee shall be equal to 10% of the excess return over the 7.5% target rate and will only be paid once the following additional conditions have been met at the end of the financial year: i) total dividends per package unit have increased by at least the rate of inflation since 1 July 2000. ii) the value of the company's assets is at least equal to that payable to the Zero Dividend Preference Shareholders if the company was to be wound-up. The performance-related fee will be capped so as to ensure that the total annual management charge will not exceed 1.25% of the average net asset value of the company's assets calculated over the twelve monthly charging points in the relevant financial year.
