Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are required to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view in accordance with applicable Guernsey Law and International Financial Reporting Standards, of the state of affairs of the Company as at the end of the financial period and of the gain or loss for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the directors are required to:
-- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; -- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.
The directors confirm that they have complied with the above requirements in preparing the financial statements.
The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008 and the principal documents. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
So far as each of the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company's auditors are unaware and each director has taken all the steps that he should have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and
to establish that the Company's auditors are aware of that information.
Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
Corporate Governance Statement
The Company is an authorised entity under the Authorised Closed Ended Investment Scheme Rules 2008 and is regulated by the GFSC with shares of its cells listed on the Channel Islands Stock Exchange.
With effect from 11 July 2008, being the date of admission to listing of the Company's BNP Paribas Agribusiness Preference Shares to the Product List of and to trading on the Budapest Stock Exchange, the Company was required to comply with the UK Financial Services Authority's Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules DTR 3, 4, 5 and 6 and with the Regulations for Listing, Continued Trading and Disclosure and to consider the Corporate Governance Recommendations of the Budapest Stock Exchange Company Limited by Shares. In addition, with effect from 1 November 2008 the Company was required to comply with the UK Financial Services Authority's Transparency Rules DTR7 and in accordance with the requirements of DTR7, the Board of directors had resolved voluntarily to apply the UK Corporate Governance Code published by the Financial Reporting Council (the "Code").
These particular responsibilities ceased to apply when these shares were delisted on 10 January 2011. As a result, the Company was not in the year under review required to comply with the requirements of the code, the provisions of the UK Financial Services Authority's Transparency Rules DTR 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 or the Regulations for Listing, Continued Trading and Disclosure or to consider the Corporate Governance Recommendations of the Budapest Stock Exchange Company Limited by Shares.
The Board is responsible for investment of the Company's assets for and on behalf of each cell and for monitoring the performance of the investments held by the Company for the account of each cell. The Board is also responsible for declarations of dividends out of the assets of individual cells where applicable. As all of the directors are non-executive, the day-to-day administration of the Company's affairs has been delegated to third-party service providers, including the Investment Manager, the Administrator and Secretary, the Registrar and the Custodian. Their appointment and performance of their duties remains subject to the overall supervision of the Board.
The Board meets at least four times a year to consider the business and affairs of the Company for the previous quarter. Between these quarterly meetings the Board meets to
Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
consider specific matters of a transactional nature and there is regular contact with the Secretary. During the year under review the Board or committees thereof met 35 times.
The directors are kept fully informed of investment and financial controls and other matters that are relevant to the business of the Company and should be brought to the attention of the directors. The directors also have access, where necessary in the furtherance of their duties, to professional advice at the expense of the Company.
The Board has a breadth of experience relevant to the Company, and, whilst no separate nomination committee has been established, the directors believe that any changes to the Board's composition can be managed without undue disruption. With any new director appointment to the Board, consideration will be given as to whether an induction process is appropriate. The performance of the Board and each director is reviewed annually by the Board and all directors are subject by rotation to re-election at the Company's general meetings held pursuant to section 199 of The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008.
Audit Committee
An Audit Committee has been established consisting of all four directors, of whom Messrs Hunt and Le Prevost are considered to be independent. Notwithstanding that Mr Le Prevost is a director of both Anson Fund Managers Limited and Anson Registrars Limited, he is considered to be independent, as he performs no executive functions on behalf of those service providers in respect of the Company. Mr Hunt is considered independent as he is not
connected to any of the service providers to the Company.
The Audit Committee has regard to the Guidance on Audit Committees published by the Financial Reporting Council in 2010. The Audit Committee examines the effectiveness of the Company's internal control systems, the annual and half-yearly reports and financial statements, the auditors' remuneration and engagement, as well as the auditors' independence and any non-audit services provided by them. The Audit Committee receives information from the Secretary's compliance department and the external auditors.
In addition, as the investments held by the Company on behalf of its cells are not traded in an active market, the fair value of such instruments is determined by using valuation
Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
techniques. The fair value is calculated weekly and as at each month end by the Counterparty. As at the date of the net asset statement, an independent check of the valuations of the investments is performed by Future Value Consultants Limited (the "Calculation Agent"), an independent third party, using a variety of methods and making assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at the date of the net asset statement. Valuation techniques used include the use of comparable recent arm's length transactions (where available), discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants. These techniques are periodically reviewed by experienced personnel at the Calculation Agent.
The Audit Committee meets at least twice annually, being before the Board meets to consider the Company's half-yearly and annual financial reports. The Audit Committee operates within clearly defined terms of reference and provides a forum through which the Company's external auditors report to the Board. The terms of reference of the Audit Committee are available upon request of the Secretary.
There is no internal audit function. As all of the directors are non-executive and all of the Company's management and administration functions have been delegated to independent third parties, the Audit Committee considers that there is no need for the Company to have an internal audit function. However, this matter is reviewed periodically.
Dividend Committees
The Company has established Dividend Committees consisting of any one director or their alternate for the purpose of declaring dividends payable out of each of BNP Paribas UK High Income, US High Income, Enhanced Income, US Enhanced Income and UK Enhanced Income. As all dividends declared by these cells are required to be declared and paid according to a fixed timetable and calculated in accordance with a prescribed formula specified in each of these cells' Summaries and Securities Notes, no discretion is afforded to the Board as to the level or timing of any dividends declared and paid.
Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
Directors' Remuneration
The directors' remuneration is not expected to exceed GBP30,000 in aggregate for all directors for this reporting year of the Company. Actual fees paid during the year ended 31 October 2011 did exceed this amount, due to a change of the Directors remuneration
policy that was made effective retrospectively. The pro-rated amount of Directors' fees for the reporting year did not exceed GBP30,000.
Francois-Xavier Foucault and Youri Siegel have waived their right to remuneration by the Company in relation to their incumbencies as directors of the Company. As the directors' remuneration is not borne by the Company, it is not considered necessary to establish a separate remuneration committee.
Internal Controls
The Board is responsible for the Company's system of internal control and for reviewing its effectiveness. The Board confirms that there is an ongoing process for identifying, evaluating and managing the significant risks faced by the Company. This process has been in place for the year under review and up to the date of approval of this Annual Financial Report and is reviewed by the Board periodically.
The internal control systems are designed to meet the Company's particular needs and the risks to which it is exposed. Accordingly, the internal control systems are designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve business objectives and by their nature can only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance against misstatement and loss.
Collateral Arrangements
In accordance with the investment objectives and the contracts entered into between the Company, on behalf of each cell, and the Counterparty, as described in relevant cells Securities Note (the "Contract"), BNP Paribas is required to provide collateral to meets its obligations under each contract in the form of AAA rated government bonds to the designated collateral accounts held in favour of the Company acting on behalf of each cell, such collateral being valued on a weekly basis.
Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
The amount of collateral which BNP Paribas is required to post in favour of each cell for the tenor of the Contract, is to the value of 100% of the indirect exposure of all holders of preference shares in the relevant cell (other than BNP Paribas Arbitrage SNC) to the credit risk of BNP Paribas plus an additional 10% of the relevant cell's total exposure to the credit risk of BNP Paribas (up to a maximum of 100% of such total exposure). Should a default occur, the Company is able to enforce its rights under the restructuring deed between BNP Arbitrage SNC and BNP Paribas and the Company.
BNP Paribas Arbitrage SNC has waived its rights to pari passu payment with other holders of preference shares of all redemption amounts, where there is a default by BNP Paribas under the relevant swap contract, thereby subordinating its rights in favour of all other holders of preference shares (on default by BNP Paribas).
Dialogue with Shareholders
The directors are always available to enter into dialogue with shareholders and the Company believes such communications to be important. BNP Paribas meets regularly with the Company's major shareholders and reports at least quarterly to the Board of directors on those shareholders' views about the Company and any issues or concerns they might have. BNP Paribas can also be contacted by shareholders both by telephone and e-mail, their contact details being shown at the end of this annual financial report.
Going Concern
After making enquiries and given the nature of the Company and its investments, the directors are satisfied that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements, and, after due consideration, the directors consider that the Company is able to continue in the foreseeable future.

Investment Objective
The BNP Paribas European Shield is a six-year fund returning 171.25p per share at maturity provided that, at maturity, the DJ Euro Stoxx 50 Index is at or above its initial level of 3,865.42. This is equivalent to an annualised return of 8.5% on the application price of 105p. The redemption value per share is reduced linearly from 171.25p to 100p per share as the index falls from 100% to 85% of its initial level. The redemption value per share of 100p is protected unless the index falls by 50% from its initial level at any point over the six year life. If downside is triggered and the index fails to recover to 85% of the initial level, investors will participate in index tracking plus 15 pence per share.

This 6-year maturity fund produces absolute returns based on the divergence, rather than the direction, of stock performance. The fund focuses on the share components of the Dow Jones Global Titans Index, an index that includes the world's 50 largest multinational companies. On each anniversary of launch the fund's portfolio is, retrospectively, made up of the shares that have beaten the index over the previous year in equal weightings. The fund's return for each year equals the amount by which this portfolio's annualised performance beats the index less a hurdle rate of 5%.
The level of the Index recorded at launch and as of 31 October 2011 is set out in the table. Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")

Investment Objective
BNP Paribas US High Income ("USH" for Class A and "USHD" for Class B) is a six-year investment aiming to provide shareholders with a stable stream of quarterly dividend distributions based on the dividend income of a notional portfolio of shares selected from the S&P 100 Index, supplemented by premiums for notional call options written on those shares. This selection of shares is rebalanced on a quarterly basis. In addition, a purchase of portfolio insurance in the form of a put option linked to the S&P 100 Index, with a term and maturity matching the term of the Shares, aims to reduce the risk of capital loss.
BNP Paribas US High Income launched on 26 October 2006 with an initial NAV of 99 pence ($0.99 for class B). On this date (a) a portfolio of shares was selected and purchased (b) the corresponding 3-month call options were sold with an average strike price of 104.3% of the value of the shares and (c) the portfolio insurance was acquired. This takes the form of a six-year put option on the S&P 100 with a strike level of 645.42.

Investment Objective
The Enhanced Property Recovery Fund allows investors to benefit from a possible recovery in the listed property market with an enhanced market timing mechanism. At maturity, if the FTSE EPRA European Index (Bloomberg code: EPRA Index) (the "Index") finishes above its initial level, the fund will pay the greater of either 170% or the enhanced performance of the index. If the Index closes below the initial level, the Fund will track the Index.
Investment Performance
Between launch on 13 March 2008 and close on 31 October 2011 the NAV had fallen by 34.9%. Over this period the EPRA Index had decreased by 34.3%. The Fund performance is driven primarily by sensitivity of the NAV to movements in the underlying Index, which is nearly one for one. The Fund recorded itslowest observation in March 2009 at 760.83. The enhanced market timing mechanism of this Fund means that if the Index was to recover to maturity, this figure would be used as the reference for which to calculate final performance.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HAREWOOD STRUCTURED INVESTMENT PCC LIMITED
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited ("the Company") which comprise the Statement of Financial Position as of 31 October 2011 and the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Attributable to Holders of Preference Shares and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Directors' Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The directors are responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and with the requirements of Guernsey law. The directors are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as of 31 October 2011, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and have been properly prepared in accordance with the requirements of The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 October 2011
1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted by the Company and applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise stated in the following text.
(a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified for the measurement at fair value of financial instruments held at fair value through profit or loss.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the Board of directors to exercise judgement in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a high degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 2.
Changes in accounting policy and disclosures:
The following Standards or Interpretations have been adopted in the current year. Their adoption has not had any impact on the amounts reported in these financial statements and is not expected to have any impact on future financial periods:
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (annual amendments)
IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows (annual amendments)
IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurements (annual amendments)
The following Standards or Interpretations have been issued by the IASB but not yet adopted by the Company:
IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures- amendments enhancing disclosures about transfers of financial assets, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement- replacement of IAS 39 incorporating new requirements on accounting for financial liabilities and impairment of financial assets measured at amortised cost, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013.
IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement- establishes a single framework for measuring fair value where that is required by other Standards. The Standard applies to both financial and non-financial items measured at fair value, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013.
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements- amendments to revise the way other comprehensive income is presented, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures- revised definition of related parties, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.
Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 October 2011 (continued)
1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (a) Basis of preparation (continued)
The directors have considered the above and are of the opinion that the above Standards and Interpretations are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements except for the presentation of additional disclosures and changes to the presentation of components of the financial statements. These items will be applied in the first financial period for which they are required.
(b) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the Company's financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (the "functional currency"). This is pounds sterling, which reflects the Company's primary activity of investing in sterling-denominated investment transactions. The Company has adopted pounds sterling as its presentation currency as the Company is listed on the Channel Islands Stock Exchange and the majority of its registered shareholders are domiciled in the United Kingdom. Up until the maturity of the cell BNP Paribas Agribusiness in February 2011, there was only one cell which was not listed on the Channel Islands Stock Exchange, instead being listed on the Budapest Stock Exchange. Whilst shareholders of this cell were not exposed to movements in the HUF / Sterling Exchange rate, the previously reported value of this cell in the financial statements was exposed to such movements, as the aggregated financial statements are prepared in the functional currency.
(c) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income within net movement in unrealised gains / (losses) on investments.
(d) Taxation
The Company has been granted exemption from Guernsey Income Tax under the Income Tax (Exempt Bodies) (Guernsey) Ordinance, 1989, and is charged an annual fee of GBP600. Dividend income is recognised on a gross basis, including withholding tax, if any.
(e) Expenses
All expenses are accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses are borne by BNP Paribas SA pursuant to the terms of an Engagement Letter between the Company and BNP Paribas SA. The ongoing expenses for the year under review are detailed in note 7 to the financial statements.
(f) Debt issue costs
Pursuant to the placing and offer for subscription of Shares in the Enhanced Global Asset Allocation cell (the "Cell") the Initial Cell Expenses incurred (as defined in the Cell's Supplemental Memorandum) amounted to GBP297,509. Because the Preference Shares in EGAA were redeemable on 17 March 2011, they were required to be classified as debt instruments under IAS 32. Consequently, issue costs were required to be amortised over the life of the instrument.
Harewood Structured Investment PCC Limited (the "Company")
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 October 2011 (continued)
1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (g) Cash and cash equivalents
At the reporting date cash or cash equivalents comprise cash at bank, which belongs to the Company. As detailed in note 7, all expenses of the Company are borne by BNP Paribas SA. All income received is distributed to shareholders in the relevant cells as dividends.
(h) Income recognition
Dividend income is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the relevant cell's right to receive the dividend has been established, normally being the ex-dividend date. Dividend income is recognised on a gross basis, including withholding tax, if any.
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
All investments and financial instruments are classified as "at fair value through profit or loss". Investments are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given, including transaction costs associated with the investment. After initial recognition, investments are measured at fair value, with unrealised gains and losses on investments and impairment of investments being recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The Company seeks to achieve the investment objective of each cell by entering into a contract with BNP Paribas (referred to herein as the "Counterparty"). Each contract is substantially in the form of an ISDA Master Agreement as supplemented by a transaction confirmation.
In respect of each contract, within BNP Paribas Group (the "Group"), the Market and Liquidity Risk department is responsible for the day-to-day risk monitoring and contributes to the control of the economic fair value of the Group's trading books. This risk function department is separate and independent from the Trading and Sales departments.
The Market and Liquidity Risk department reviews the consistency of the non-observable market parameters by comparing and reconciling on a monthly basis several external data sources, including Bloomberg, Reuters, Markit/Totem and 10X.
This department is also responsible for the validation and control of any valuation models.
(j) Loss per share
The loss per share is based on the decrease in net assets attributable to Preference shareholders from operations of the Company for the year of GBP68,539,018 (2010: GBP2,655,428 net loss) and on 794,266,929 (2010: 857,671,534) shares, being the weighted average number of shares in issue during the year. There were no dilutive instruments in issue during the year.
(k) Trade date accounting
All "regular way" purchase and sales of financial assets are recognised on the "trade date" i.e. the date that the entity commits to purchase or sell the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of the asset within the time frame generally established by the regulation or convention in the market place.
(l) Distributions payable to holders of redeemable shares
Proposed distributions to holders of redeemable shares are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when they are declared by the Board of directors. The distribution on these redeemable shares is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as a finance cost.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 October 2011 (continued)
1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (m) Going concern
After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The directors believe the Company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully despite the current economic climate. Accordingly, the directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing the financial information
2 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
Management make critical accounting estimates and judgements concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the financial year are outlined below:
(a) Fair value of financial instruments
The Company holds investments which are tailored to meet the Company's respective needs for each cell. As the investments are not traded in an active market, the fair value of such instruments is determined by using valuation techniques. The fair value is calculated weekly and as at each month end by the Counterparty. At each reporting date, an independent check of the valuations of the investments is performed by Future Value Consultants Limited (the "Calculation Agent"), an independent third party. The Calculation Agent uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at the reporting date. Valuation techniques used include the use of comparable recent arm's length transactions (where available), discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants. These techniques are periodically reviewed by experienced personnel at the Calculation Agent.
Models use observable data, to the extent practicable. However, areas such as credit risk (both own and counterparty), volatilities, capital risk and correlations require management to make estimates. Changes in assumptions about these factors could materially affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

IFRS 7 requires fair value measurements to be disclosed by the source of inputs, using the following three-level hierarchy:
-- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1)
-- Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (Level 2)
-- Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3)
The financial assets held by the Company have been classified as Level 2. This is in accordance with the fair value hierarchy.
There have been no transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the year under review.

6 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including interest rate risk and market price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and foreign exchange risk.
The Company's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Company's financial performance. The Company uses financial instruments to moderate certain risk exposures.
(a) Interest Rate Risk
The Company is not directly exposed to cash flow interest rate risk. Changes in interest rates may affect the performance of the swap contracts in which each cell is invested. The Board and the Investment Manager monitor, but cannot control, interest rate risk.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 October 2011 (continued)
6 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued) (b) Market Price Risk
Market price risk arises mainly from uncertainty about future prices of financial instruments held. It represents the potential loss the Company might suffer through holding market positions in the face of price movements. The Investment Manager actively monitors market prices and reports to the Board as to the appropriateness of the prices used for valuation purposes. On a periodic basis independent valuations of the Company's investments are obtained from the Calculation Agent. A list of investments held by the Company is shown in the Schedule of Investments on pages 79 to 82.
The Investment Manager also monitors on a monthly basis the market price risk of each cell's underlying financial assets and liabilities using statistical measures, such as Delta. Delta is the percentage change in price of an investment in relation to a 1% change in the price of the underlying security, index or rate. As there is no secondary market for the Company's investments, the Board cannot directly monitor nor control market price risk.
Price sensitivity
If market prices as at 31 Oct 2011 / 2010 had been 10 per cent higher / lower, and assuming these values were to remain unchanged through to the end of the life of the cells, with all other variables held constant, the increase / decrease in net assets attributable to holders of Cell Shares on the Redemption Date would have been as stated below, arising due to the increase / decrease in the fair value of the financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

6 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued) (c) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or counterparty will be unable or unwilling to meet a commitment that it has entered into with the Company. At the date of this report the Counterparty was rated AA- by Standard & Poor's for credit purposes.
Investors should be aware that repayment by the Company at the relevant redemption date of the redemption proceeds due to shareholders will only be performed if the Counterparty satisfies its obligations under the relevant contract to repay to the Company any amount due. Under the terms of the Credit Support Deeds between the Company and the Counterparty, the Counterparty is required to deliver varying amounts of collateral to an escrow account held in favour of the Company.
Under the terms of credit support deeds entered into between the Counterparty and the Company acting for and on behalf of each cell, the Counterparty is required to post collateral in the form of AAA rated government bonds in favour of the Company acting for and on behalf of each cell, such collateral being valued on a weekly basis and, if the value of the collateral is less than the value calculated as specified below (the "Credit Support Amount"), the Counterparty will provide additional collateral to increase the aggregate value to at least the Credit Support Amount. Where there is an event of default in respect of the Counterparty under the swap confirmation, the Company will be entitled to enforce against the Counterparty its security over the collateral.
Due to the collateral being monitored on a weekly basis (as detailed above), there is a risk due to timing that the amount posted to collateral will be less than the Credit Support Amount.
The Credit Support Amount is the lesser of (a) 100% of the net asset value of the relevant cell and (b) the total of the Applicable Percentage of such net asset value plus 10% of such net asset value (where the "Applicable Percentage" is calculated so as to reflect the percentage of shares in the relevant cell held at the relevant time by shareholders other than BNP Paribas Arbitrage SNC).
The most significant concentration of credit risk for the Company is that the Counterparty will be unable to satisfy its obligations under the relevant contract to repay to the Company any amount due. The maximum credit risk exposure at the reporting date is therefore considered to be the total valuation of the investments at this date, being GBP606,861,780.
The Investment Manager and Administrator monitor collateral posted on a weekly basis and report to the Board quarterly on the Counterparty's compliance with the relevant Credit Support Deeds. The Investment Manager and Administrator have also undertaken to report to the Board immediately if there is a breach of compliance with the terms of the relevant Credit Support Deeds.
The Board monitors, but cannot control, credit risk.
(d) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in realising assets or otherwise raising funds to meet financial commitments and obligations to shareholders on redemption of their shares of a cell. The only financial commitments of the Company are to meet ongoing expenses and these are met out of monies provided to the Company's Administrator by BNP Paribas SA.

6 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued) (d) Liquidity Risk (continued)
There is a further liquidity risk in respect of the redemption of shares, the dates of which are set out in note 6(g) (ii).
As the investments are not traded in an active market, the Company may not be able to liquidate quickly its investments in these instruments at an amount close to their fair value to meet its liquidity requirements or to respond to specific events such as deterioration in the credit worthiness of the Counterparty.

6 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued) (e) Capital Risk Management
The Company has an unlimited life but the Protected Cell Shares for each cell have a fixed redemption date.
The Board of directors believes the current capital structure to be sufficient in meeting the capital requirements of the Company.
All expenses are borne by BNP Paribas SA and redemption proceeds are limited to the amounts received, if any, on the maturity or early termination of the relevant investment contract between the Company and the Counterparty.
Potential losses to shareholders are mitigated by the returns stipulated in the swap agreement with the Counterparty as described in note 6 (h) and the collateral arrangements which are set out in note 6(i).
(f) Foreign Exchange Risk
The carrying amounts of the Company's foreign currency denominated financial assets at the reporting date are as follows:

----------- -----------
As subscription, redemption and dividend payments in respect of all cells other than US High Income are made in the same functional currency, none of the cells other than US High Income are exposed to foreign exchange risk. Subscription and redemption payments in respect of Class B US High Income are made in US Dollars, but dividends are paid in the Sterling equivalent of a fixed US Dollar amount, unless the relevant shareholder elects to receive their dividends in US Dollars. As the currency in which these dividends are paid is selected at the option of the shareholder and may be paid in the functional currency, the directors do not consider that the Company acting on behalf of US High Income is exposed to material foreign exchange risk.

(iii) Early Settlement Options relating to the investment contracts
Each contract entered into between the Counterparty and the Company acting for and on behalf of each cell have been entered into upon terms which allow such contracts to be terminated, inter alia, in the following circumstances:
(a) by the Company if the Counterparty fails to make a payment under the relevant contract (subject to a grace period of three local business days) or makes a representation which is incorrect or misleading in any material respect or fails to comply with its related obligations;
(b) by the Counterparty if the Company fails to make a payment it is required to pay under the relevant contract (subject to the grace period mentioned above); and
(c) by either the Counterparty or the Company if the other party is dissolved, becomes insolvent or is unable to pay its debts as they become due or on the occurrence of an illegality or the imposition on payments under the Contract of a withholding which the Company or the Counterparty, as the case may be, is unable to gross-up.
It is anticipated that, on early termination of a Contract, a termination payment would become due to the Company equal to the aggregate net asset value of the relevant Contract at the date of such termination. The directors may reinvest such proceeds as they see fit in investments which in the opinion of the directors replicate as nearly as practicable the investment characteristics of the contract so terminated and so that the proceeds are invested, as nearly as practicable, in accordance with the Company's stated investment objective for the relevant cell.
Even if recovered by the Company, any early redemption amount in respect of the shares of the relevant cell may result in a lower return than would have been the case if the contract had continued and been performed up to its maturity date.
In the event that the directors determine that the investment characteristics of the Contract cannot be replicated then the directors will notify Shareholders of the relevant cell of such circumstances, the relevant early redemption amount and the relevant early redemption date.
If the Counterparty fails to top up the collateral such that it is equal to at least the Specified Percentage (as set out in note 6(i) below) or other circumstances constituting an event of default with respect to the Counterparty occur, the Company will be entitled to enforce its security over the collateral as well as to pursue any other remedies it may have against the Counterparty. In such circumstances, the Company will re-invest the proceeds of realisation of the collateral or distribute the same to Shareholders.
