TIDMCMAE TIDMCMAU TIDMCMAS RNS Number : 8078R CMA Global Hedge PCC Ltd 31 August 2010 CMA GLOBAL HEDGE PCC LIMITED (the "Company") (Registered Number: 44929) STOCK EXCHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT 31 August 2010 HALF YEARLY REPORT The Company has today, in accordance with DTR 6.3.5, released its Half Yearly Report for the period ending 30th June 2010. The Report is available from the Company's website www.cmaglobalhedge.com and will shortly be available for inspection at the UK Listing Authority's Document Viewing Facility, which is located at: Financial Services Authority 25 The North Colonnade Canary Wharf London E14 5HS CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT The Directors of CMA Global Hedge PCC Limited announce the following results for the period ended 30th June 2010: +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | | US Dollar | Euro class | Sterling | | | class | | class | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | As at 30 June 2010 | US$ | EUR | GBP | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | Total net assets | 11,770,775 | 9,805,668 | 6,454,240 | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | Net Asset Value per | 7.65 | 8.39 | 7.89 | | share | | | | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | Total earnings per share | (0.48) | (0.49) | (0.49) | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | | | | | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | As at 31 December 2009 | | | | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | Total net assets | 12,514,802 | 8,932,074 | 6,356,037 | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | Net Asset Value per | 8.13 | 7.64 | 7.77 | | share | | | | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | Total earnings per share | 0.20 | (0.01) | 0.94 | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ | | | | | +--------------------------+--------------+--------------+------------+ Commenting on the results the Chairman has made the following statement: I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our shareholders for their understanding and support over the last few years and give you an overview of the Company's progress during the first half of 2010. Developments and changes in the Company during the year The first half of 2010 was negative in terms of performance for the USD Class of the Company while the investment manager continued to raise liquidity across the portfolio. The Company's USD NAV was negative 5.87% for the period. We are pleased however that the Company managed to raise cash of around 13m USD or nearly 35% of the NAV during this period. As the USD appreciated significantly in this six-month period, particularly versus the EUR, the EUR and GBP un-hedged classes performed much better than the USD class. The EUR class was positive 9.75% while the GBP class was positive 1.53% for the period. With regard to leverage, I would like to reiterate that as a result of aggressive cash raising in the portfolio, leverage was successfully eliminated in mid-March 2009, 2 months ahead of schedule. The Company had no outstanding leverage as of mid-March 2009 and this remains the case today. Future Direction of the Company On 3 September 2009 the Company's discontinuation vote passed with 88.93% of shareholders voting in favour. This led the Board to propose two options, at an EGM held on 15 December 2009, by which Shareholders could realize their investment in the Company, with Shareholders able to elect for the option which best suited their circumstances. As of December 15th, the Company has been operating as a listed run-off vehicle, with the sole objective of raising cash in the portfolio for future distributions to shareholders. I am pleased to report that over 73% of the Company's NAV, at the time of the EGM in December 2009, has already been distributed in cash to shareholders and the investment manager has continued to realise assets since this date. As mentioned above, since the beginning of 2010 the Company has raised approximately 35% of its NAV in cash. The remaining portfolio is significantly more illiquid and is expected to take at least 3 years to generate significant further liquidity. In light of this liquidity outlook, the current size of the Company and the ongoing fixed costs, the Directors of the Company, following discussions with its investment manager and its advisors, have decided to recommend to Shareholders that the Company be placed into liquidation and a circular will be posted to Shareholders in due course containing further details and a resolution to wind-up the Company. In addition, the directors have asked the investment manager to explore the opportunities in the secondary market for illiquid assets, with a view of generating liquidity at a faster pace for shareholders.

Advisors Limited, a Bermuda-based exempt company offering investment management and advisory services to funds of hedge funds as well as hedge fund related products. The Cell currently has three share classes, a US Dollar Class, a Euro Class and a Sterling Class. Following the Extraordinary General Meeting ("EGM") on 17 December 2008, the Board implemented the following proposals approved at the meeting, in order to reduce the imbalance between supply and demand for the shares in the market and thereby seek to reduce the discount to Net Asset Value at which the shares of the Company have been trading: - Redemption offers in December 2008 and March 2009 of up to 20 per cent each of the Company's issued share capital as at the December 2008 Record Date (15 December 2008) and the March 2009 Record Date (24 March 2009). A redemption fee is payable to the Investment Manager equal to 4 per cent of the actual aggregate amount of cash owing to a redeeming shareholder following the redemption of their shares (the "Actual Cash Proceeds"). - The creation of an on-going Redemption Facility, whereby the Company may offer, at the discretion of the Directors, to redeem up to 20 per cent of the Company's issued share capital on a half yearly basis. Redemption fees payable to the Investment Manager are 4 per cent, 3 per cent, and 2 per cent of the Actual Cash Proceeds received by redeeming shareholders in 2009, 2010 and 2011 respectively. The Board of Directors of the Company subsequently resolved on 12 May 2009 to exercise their discretion to offer shareholders in the Company the opportunity to participate in a Redemption Facility Offer in June 2009 in respect of up to 20 per cent of the Company's issued share capital as at June 2009 Record Rate (23 June 2009) with a redemption fee of 4 per cent of each shareholder's Actual Cash Proceeds payable to the Investment Manager. Following the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on 8 July 2009, the Board communicated its intention to offer its shareholders the opportunity to determine the future direction of the Company through a vote at an EGM. The Board considered that the discontinuation of the Company would be in the best interests of the Company's Shareholders as a whole. At an EGM of the Company duly convened and held on 3 September 2009, the resolution for the discontinuation of the Company was passed and approved as an Ordinary Resolution of the Company. Further to this business development, the Company shares are no longer offered for subscription to potential and current investments. In addition, the following wind-down proposals have been passed and approved by the shareholders at the 15 December 2009 EGM: - introduction of two options to realise shareholders' investments in the Company, with shareholders able to elect for the option which best suits their circumstances (the Redemption Option or the Cash Option); - amendment of the Company's Investment Objective and Policy in order to become a listed run-off vehicle; - amendment of the Company's Articles of Incorporation in a manner consistent with converting to a listed run-off vehicle and with offering shareholders the Redemption Option or the Cash Option. Details of the two options mentioned above follow: - Redemption Option: to retain an interest in a listed vehicle and receive realisation distributions (on dates at the Directors' sole discretion) until the Company is formally wound up, including initial cash distribution as soon as practicable representing a pro rata share of available cash at the time; or - Cash Option: to receive a cash payment or cash payments (the "Cash Distribution") equivalent to the immediately realisable value of the proportion of the Portfolio attributable to shareholding in the Company. The approval of these Options caused the division of the Company's portfolio into a Redemption Pool and a Cash Pool. Net assets attributable to Redemption Option Shareholders is represented by the total net assets of CMA Global Hedge 1 Cell. The Company will be managed with the intention of realising all remaining assets in the portfolio so as to maximise the orderly return of capital to shareholders. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a) Statement of compliance and basis of preparation The financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") on a non-going concern basis and applicable legal and regulatory requirements of The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. The financial statements give a true and fair view and are in compliance with The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Services Authority. As the financial statements have been prepared on a non-going concern basis: - investments and other net assets are stated at their net realisable values; and - a provision for future wind up costs of the Company has been included in the financial statements. These condensed unaudited interim financial statements for the six month period ended 30 June 2010 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34. The condensed unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs. The accounting polices applied by the Company in these condensed interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Company in its financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2009. b) Applicable new standards and interpretations not yet effective A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations in issue are not yet effective for the six month period ended 30 June 2010, and have not been applied in preparing these financial statements. None of these will have an effect on the financial statements of the Company, with the exception of IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments", published on 12 November 2009 as part of phase 1 of the IASB's comprehensive project to replace IAS 39. IFRS 9 deals with classification and measurement of financial assets and its requirements represent a significant change from the existing requirements in IAS 39 in respect of financial assets. The standard contains two primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortised cost and fair value. A financial asset would be measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the asset's contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding. All other financial assets would be measured at fair value. The standard eliminates the existing IAS 39 categories of held to maturity, available for sale and loans and receivables. For an investment in an equity instrument which is not held for trading, the standard permits an irrevocable election, on initial recognition, on an individual share-by-share basis, to present all fair value changes from the investment in other comprehensive income. No amount recognised in other comprehensive income would ever be reclassified to profit or loss. However, dividends on such investments are recognised in profit or loss, rather than other comprehensive income unless they clearly represent a partial recovery of the cost of the investment. Investments in equity instruments in respect of which an entity does not elect to present fair value changes in other comprehensive income would be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. The standard requires that derivatives embedded in contracts with a host that is a financial asset within the scope of the standard are not separated; instead the hybrid financial instrument is assessed in its entirety as to whether it should be measured at amortised cost or fair value. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the potential effect of this standard with particular focus on the non-going concern basis of preparation required for all future financial statements of the Company. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS may require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on the historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying value of asset and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial period are addressed below: If trading volumes or liquidity in the Company's investments are considered by the Investment Manager to be insufficient to provide evidence of an active market, the Investment Manager estimates net realisable value/fair value by reference to other information sources namely index movements or changes in prices of related funds as required by IAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". Estimate prices from underlying administrators are checked by the Investment Manager. However, these estimates may be adjusted when the final prices become available and are deemed materially different. This policy also applies to the less liquid investments contained in the Entitlement Pools, Redemption Pool and Cash Pool. The Directors do not feel it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements of the Company on the going concern basis as the Company is formally following its objective to realise its investments and manage an orderly exit for its investors. The Directors have considered the costs of break-up and are of the opinion that a sufficient provision has been made in the valuation of all investor pools to account for all liquidation costs of the Company. SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED PARTIES a) The Investment Manager The Investment Manager was entitled to a fee of 1.00 per cent. per annum of the total assets of the Company calculated and accrued on a monthly basis and payable quarterly in arrears. The fee for the period is shown in Note 6 as "Management fees". The amount outstanding at the period end is US$21,504 (31 December 2009: US$340,120). In addition, a performance fee of 5 per cent of the amount (if any) by which the Net Asset Value of the Company at the end of any accounting period (ending on 31 December) exceeded the Net Asset Value at launch or at the start of any such accounting period (or, if higher, the highest previous Net Asset Value in respect of which a performance fee was paid) was payable. This performance fee was therefore subject to a so-called "high watermark" test. The calculation of the total amount of any performance fee would be adjusted for the repurchase or issue of shares in any given accounting period. There was no performance fee payable during six month period ended 30 June 2010 and 30 June 2009.
