3 Investment Objective and Policy The investment objective of this Trust is to track the capital performance of the US equity market, as represented by the FTSE World USA Index, by investment in a representative sample of stocks selected from all economic sectors (including a stock or stocks reasonably expected to be shortly part of that Index). Securities in the FTSE World USA Index will be held with weightings generally proportionate to their company s market capitalisation. From time to time non-index constituents may be held as a result of corporate action and these holdings will be sold or transferred as soon as reasonably practical. Risk Profile Market Risk Market risk arises mainly from uncertainty about future prices. The Manager adheres to the investment guidelines and in this way, monitors and controls the exposure to risk from any type of security, sector or issuer. Currency Risk This Trust is invested in overseas financial securities. The performance of the Trust may therefore be affected by changes in exchange rates. This risk may be managed by the use of forward currency contracts, which aim to manage the effect of changing exchange rates.

7 Manager s Investment Report During the year under review, the bid price of the Trust s R-Class distribution units rose by 18.6%. This compares to a rise in the FTSE World USA Index of 12.0%, on a price return basis in Sterling adjusted terms (Source: Bloomberg). The tracking difference is due to the fact that the Trust is valued using prevailing prices and exchange rates at 3pm UK time, whereas the Index is valued using close of business US prices and exchange rates. During the year under review, the performance of the Trust tracked the Index. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments and income from them may go down as well as up. Exchange rate changes may cause the value of any overseas investments to rise or fall.

Market/Economic Review During the first six months under review, companies cut back capital spending and reduced inventories. Unemployment rose sharply, resulting in extremely muted consumer spending patterns. Corporate profits declined quite rapidly, with the deterioration spreading from the Financial sectors to a broader range of industry groups. During the second half of the year under review, economic activity finally stabilised and eventually demonstrated muted growth, due mainly to the significant stimulatory measures taken by the US administration. Against a very poor fundamental background, the US Treasury and US Federal Reserve continued to support the financial system in an effort to free up frozen credit markets and stabilise the contraction in economic activity. The administration announced a US$787 billion stimulus package, and the US Federal Reserve aggressively expanded its balance sheet by purchasing US Treasuries and Mortgage-Backed Securities.The policy of Quantitative Easing (injecting liquidity into the banking system) resulted in an improvement in credit markets and as a consequence, investor s willingness to embrace risk rose. 5
8 Manager s Investment Report continued Corporate profits rebounded strongly from the trough seen at the start of the year, and several major deals were announced in the period as companies were able to access credit markets again to obtain the finance. Significantly, banks were able raise the capital to repair their balance sheets, and although corporate lending remains muted, this important part of the economy is now in a position to carry out its primary function. The best performing sectors over the reporting year were Information Technology, Materials and Consumer Discretionary. The worst performing sectors were Telecom Services, Utilities and Consumer Staples. Within Technology, the semiconductor companies Advanced Micro Devices and Micron Technology were among the best performers, being the most sensitive to the production cycle. Within the Mining sector Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold rose sharply, as commodities rallied in response to extremely low interest rates and the weakness in the US Dollar. Within the Automobiles and Parts sector, Ford Motor and Goodyear Tire benefited from the rise in auto sales as the administration provided significant aid to the industry. The homebuilders Pulte Homes and KB Home remained weak, as the excess inventory of unsold homes depressed sales. Several major corporate transactions were announced during the year under review, as companies sought ways to create Shareholder value in an environment of subdued revenue growth. Within Technology, Dell bid for Perot Systems, Cisco bid for Tandberg and Affiliated Computer Services was acquired by Xerox. In the Industrial sector, Burlington Northern was acquired by Berkshire Hathaway. In the Pharmaceutical sector, Merck acquired Schering Plough and Pfizer bid for Wyeth in an attempt to replace their declining pipelines of new drugs. Trust Review The annual review of the Index in December 2008 saw seven additions and 36 deletions. The two largest additions being Visa and Southwestern Energy Company. During the first six months of 2009 there were significant changes within the Banking sector;wells Fargo & Co saw its weight in the Index increase after it completed its US$12.7 billion purchase of Wachovia Corp. Similarly, Bank of America completed its US$18.5 billion takeover of Merrill Lynch creating the world s largest asset management business. Genentech was deleted from the Index after the completion of its US$46.8 billion cash takeover by Roche (Switzerland), creating the world s largest biotech company. Similarly, UST was deleted from the Index after being acquired by Alteria Group for US$10.4 billion in cash and Sovereign Bancorp 6
9 Manager s Investment Report continued was deleted after being taken over by Banco Santander (Spain). A large number of companies including Northeast Utilities, Cameco Corp, U.S Bancorp, Principal Financial Group, MGM Mirage, Regional Financial, Bank of America and Alcoa issued additional shares to either finance acquisitions or strengthen their balance sheets and as a result saw their weight in the Index increase. The second half of 2009 continued with significant Index changes;thomson Corporation s US$18 billion purchase of UK constituent Reuters resulted in a large weight increase. US banks Citigroup, Bank of America and Legg Mason continued to raise capital in the second half of 2009 to repay the US government as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Programme (TARP) funding. The issue of new shares and reduction in government holdings resulted in weight increases to the Index. Outlook After the gains of recent months, a period of consolidation is now due in the stock market. Investors are likely to consider the sustainability of any improvement in economic growth that should emerge in the next few months. As has been the case for much of the past year further policy measures from the US Administration and US Federal Reserve will continue to play a key role in determining the financial landscape. The US Federal Reserve has made it very clear that interest rates are likely to stay low for some considerable time. With corporate profits continuing to improve, we believe further progress in the equity market is likely in Legal & General Investment Management Limited (Investment Adviser) 5 January
