TPAM reserves the right to amend the information provided herein, and its opinions, at any time, and undertakes no obligation (express or implied) to provide any recipient with any further information or to correct any inaccuracies or omissions which may subsequently become apparent.

Investments in Emerging and Frontier markets usually suffer from liquidity problems, and are often affected by governmental interference in the free market, local politics and vagaries in commodity and currency prices; therefore, their prices can be very volatile. This means that it can be difficult to acquire and subsequently sell the shares "noted" in TCA's portfolio. All current and prospective investors should be aware that PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.
All solicitations or offers regarding TCA are made and transacted on the public market of the AIM Section of the London Stock Exchange and occur by reference to TCA's Offering Memorandum and the document titled "Tender Offer to Purchase Ordinary Shares at the Tender Price and Restructuring and Amendment to the Directors' Incentive Plan and Change of name to Terra Capital PLC and Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting" of the April 30, 2012 (the "Circular") as amended by subsequent resolutions, primarily the one passed at the January 26, 2015 EGM. Documents are accessible on TCA's website www.terracapitalplc.com in the "Investor Centre" tab under the Documents and Announcements section of the file "AIM Rule 26". This website contains important information which may supplement, modify or differ from the information contained herein and no prospective investment decision should be considered before careful reading of documentation found on TCA's website.
By accepting this document, you agree to be bound by the foregoing limitations.

NOTES:
Terra Capital Plc is an AIM quoted investment trust focussed on generating high absolute returns while ensuring volatility is kept to a minimum. The fund predominantly invests in under-researched and under-valued companies. The Fund Manager targets companies that are trading at less than their intrinsic worth and so, aside from any potential growth prospects, provide scope for capital appreciation as a result of a reversion towards underlying value. Investments are also made in companies which are viewed as fair value but offer opportunities for growth at a reasonable price. Due to inherent market inefficiencies, the Fund Manager believes many such 'value' opportunities can be found in Frontier Markets and utilises in-house teams of analysts on the ground in areas of interest to investigate suitable opportunities rather than rely on third party research.
