the Custodian) has been appointed as the new Custodian of the Fund replacing

the take over by HSBC Holdings Plc of Bank of Bermuda Limited.
Accordingly a Novation Agreement dated 11th April 2005 (the Novation
Agreement) has been entered into by the Fund, Genesis Fund Managers, LLP (the
Manager) BOBGL and HCSGL. The change in Custodian has not resulted in a change

Plc, the Custodian has an authorised and issued share capital of �4,000,000 all
of which is fully paid. The Custodian is licensed by the Guernsey Financial
Services Commission under the Protection of Investors (Bailiwick of Guernsey)
Law 1987 to carry on the business of custodian to Collective Investment Schemes.
The Custodian's principal business activity is acting as trustee and custodian
of collective investment schemes.
HSBC Holdings Plc, a public company incorporated in England, had consolidated
gross assets of approximately US$1,277 billion as at 31st December 2004.
