*IMPORTANT NOTES 
 
1. Calculation of Net Asset Value and Performance Data 
 
Set out above are the estimated month to date ("MTD") and estimated calendar 
year to date ("YTD") performance figures. Not all Managers report weekly, 
bi-weekly or monthly estimated performance. The MTD performance figure is 
calculated by reference to the previous month's published estimated net asset 
value ("NAV"), or final NAV, if available, and the most recently available 
subsequent estimated performance. The YTD performance figure is calculated by 
reference to the NAV at the end of the last calendar year and adjusted for the 
most recently available subsequent month(s)' and/or week(s)' estimated or final 
NAV, as appropriate. A MTD performance figure is not provided for the week in 
which the last business day of the month occurs. 
 
Performance data generally is determined based upon the latest available 
valuations (or estimated valuations) provided, directly or indirectly, by the 
investment managers ("Managers") selected by the Company's investment advisor 
(the "Investment Advisor"). In some cases, valuations use assumptions that may 
be complex and susceptible to significant uncertainty, and may prove incorrect. 
Final month-end NAVs may be materially different from the intra-month estimates 
provided and NAV and performance data should only be taken as indicative values 
for information only. No reliance should be placed on any estimated valuations. 
Furthermore, the actual value of the Company's assets may be materially 
different from published estimated values. Such estimations and valuations are 
particularly susceptible to inaccuracies during periods of market volatility or 
uncertainty, and additional information may become available subsequently which 
materially alters assumptions or other inputs to the estimates. In the event 
that an estimated valuation subsequently proves to be incorrect, no adjustment 
to a previously published estimated valuation is expected to be made nor would 
compensation be payable. 
 
Certain securities or other assets in which the Managers invest may not have a 
readily ascertainable market price or may otherwise be difficult to value and 
will be priced by the Managers. 
 
Valuations (or estimated valuations) received by the Company may be unaudited 
or may be subject to little verification or other due diligence and may not 
comply with generally accepted accounting practices or other valuation 
principles. 
 
Estimated valuation of the Company's NAV and performance have been prepared in 
good faith by the Investment Advisor with respect to estimated performance and 
UBS Fund Services (Cayman) Ltd., the Company's sub-administrator (the 
"sub-Administrator") with respect to final monthly performance. Neither the 
Company's Sub-Administrator nor the Investment Advisor will generally have 
sufficient information to be able to independently confirm or review the 
completeness, genuineness or accuracy of the Managers' valuations (or estimated 
valuations). In certain circumstances as set out in the Company's prospectus, 
including if the Investment Advisor determines, in its sole discretion, that a 
valuation is inaccurate or incomplete, the Investment Advisor may, in its sole 
discretion, determine the fair value of the Company's interests independently 
of the Managers' valuations based on information available to, and factors 
deemed relevant (at its sole discretion) by, the Investment Advisor at the time 
of such valuation. 
 
Other risk factors which may be relevant to this estimated valuation are set 
out in the Company's prospectus dated 4 April 2008, and the circular to 
shareholders dated 15 July 2011. 
 
2. ERISA 
 
The articles of association of the Company prohibit any purchase or acquisition 
of shares by or on behalf of or for the benefit of an ERISA plan or benefit 
plan investor subject to similar laws (a "Plan Investor"), and incorporate 
provisions whereby purported purchases of shares by or on behalf of or for the 
benefit of an ERISA plan or Plan Investor will not operate to confer any 
interest or rights whatsoever in such shares in favour of an ERISA plan or Plan 
Investor, but instead will take effect as a trust for redemption in favour of 
the Company and the Company will subsequently purchase or redeem such shares, 
which purchase or redemption may take place at an amount per share which is 
less than the price paid by an ERISA plan or Plan Investor on the purported 
acquisition. 
 
3. For the Attention of United States Residents 
 
The shares may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for 
the account or benefit of, US Persons (as defined in the Regulation S under the 
Securities Act of 1933 or any person who would be considered a US person under 
Rule 4.7 of the United States Commodity Exchange Act). 
 
This document is for information purposes only and is not an offer to invest. 
Estimated results, performance or achievements may differ materially from any 
actual results, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable 
law, the Company expressly disclaims any obligations to update or revise such 
estimates to reflect any change in expectations, new information, subsequent 
events or otherwise. All investments are subject to risk and the value of 
investments may fluctuate. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns. 
Prospective investors are advised to seek expert legal, financial, tax and 
other professional advice before making any investment decision.
