Risk Warnings

Past or projected performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve comparable results, that targeted returns, diversification or asset allocations will be met or that the Fund will be able to implement its investment strategy and investment approach or achieve its investment objective. Actual returns on unrealized investments will depend on, among other factors, future operating results, the value of the assets and market conditions at the time of disposition, legal and contractual restrictions on transfer that may limit liquidity, any related transaction costs and the timing and manner of sale, all of which may differ from the assumptions and circumstances on which the valuations used in the prior performance data contained herein are based. Accordingly, actual returns may differ materially from the returns indicated herein.

The Fund is illiquid and requires long term commitment with no certainty of any capital or income return. There will be no right of cancellation. There is currently no market for interests in the Fund therefore it is highly unlikely that disinvestments will be permitted. You may not get back the amount you originally invested at the end of the period. The Fund may not achieve its objectives or its performance targets.

The Fund is not regulated or authorised by the Financial Services Authority and therefore not subject to investor protection rules. Participants will not have any protection under the Financial Ombudsman Scheme or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
