The performance chart of the Curzon FX Index provided below represents the aggregated performance of the current five FX managers assuming that each manager received 20% of the available notional cash three years previously. The performance of a Strategy Plan established also three years previously would have been different from the performance chart below since the Strategy Plan will be subject to management fees, capital protection fees, Index Adviser fees and early exit fees, which will reduce overall returns but this may have been more than offset by the performance enhancement provided by the bank gearing of up to 1.5x to the underlying exposure to the FX managers

The aim of this weighting algorithm is to maximize the exposure to the Underlying Asset while also ensuring that Protected Index Level at maturity is at least equal to the Protection Level. In extreme circumstances this may lead to the exposure to Underlying Asset falling to 0%. If this occurs it will remain at 0% until maturity
