5 Key Features of the Jupiter ISA Tax Year 2000/2001 AIMS The Jupiter Individual Savings Account (ISA) provides an easy tax efficient means of buying units in the authorised unit trusts managed by Jupiter Unit Trust Managers Limited ( Jupiter ). The Jupiter Funds available within the Jupiter ISA, together with their objectives and investment policy, are as follows: Jupiter Corporate Bond Fund To achieve high income and the opportunity for capital growth, primarily through investment in fixed interest securities, as well as convertibles and preference shares, with the potential for international exposure. Jupiter Ecology Fund To invest world-wide in companies which demonstrate a positive commitment to the long term protection of the environment. Jupiter Environmental Opportunities Fund To achieve long term capital growth from a portfolio primarily invested in UK equities considered by the Manager to be responding positively to and profiting from the challenges of environmental sustainability or are making a positive commitment to social well being. Jupiter European Fund To achieve long term capital growth from investment in companies quoted on a European Stock Exchange. Jupiter European Special Situations Fund To achieve long term capital growth by exploiting special situations by investing principally in European equities, in investments considered to be undervalued. Jupiter Far Eastern Fund To achieve long term capital growth by investing directly or indirectly in Asian and Pacific Basin markets primarily in companies with interest in Asia and the Pacific Basin including Japan. Jupiter Financial Opportunities Fund To achieve long term capital growth through investment in equities of financial sector companies on an international basis. Jupiter Fund of Investment Trusts ( JFIT ) To achieve long term capital growth through investment principally in investment trusts and other closed end investment companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. Jupiter Global Opportunities Fund To achieve long term capital growth principally through investment in equities on an international basis. Jupiter Global Technology Fund To achieve long term capital growth through investing principally in equities on an international basis, in a wide range of companies which are either active in, or benefit from the technology, media or telecoms industries. Jupiter Growth & Income Fund To achieve long term capital growth and income through investing principally in UK equities.

Jupiter Income Trust To invest principally in the United Kingdom to achieve a high and growing income.

Jupiter North American Fund To achieve long term capital growth by investing primarily in North American securities. Jupiter UK Growth Fund To obtain long term capital growth from investment principally in UK equities. Jupiter UK Smaller Companies Fund To achieve long term capital growth by investing primarily in UK smaller companies by investing in high quality smaller companies which the Manager believes to have significant growth potential over the medium to long term. Jupiter UK Special Situations Fund To achieve capital growth by exploiting special situations, investing principally in UK equities considered to be undervalued. Jupiter Cash Fund To achieve a high level of income combined with a high degree of security. YOUR INVESTMENT The Jupiter Funds ( Fund(s) ) are authorised unit trusts schemes under the Financial Services Act 1986 and are constituted by trust deeds. They are securities funds as defined by Financial Services (Regulated Schemes) Regulations 1991 and wider range investments under the Trustee Investments Act 1961, with the exception of the Jupiter Cash Fund which is a money market fund and narrower range investment. Units in the Funds are either income units or accumulation units denominated in pounds Sterling, apart from the Jupiter Monthly Income Fund which issues both income and accumulation units. Each holder of a unit in a Fund is entitled to participate in the property of the Fund and the income thereof. In respect of income units, the net income available for distribution, if any, is taken out of price of units at the Fund s xd date and either distributed to unitholders or used to purchase further units, depending on their preference. In respect of accumulation units, the net income available for distribution, if any, is not taken out of the price of units at the Fund s xd date and is therefore retained within the Fund. There are five types of ISA option: Dynamic Growth The aim of the Option is to achieve long term capital growth through investing in equities on an international basis, with an emphasis on investing in stocks within potential high growth industries. To achieve this your initial investment will be split equally between the Jupiter European Special Situations Fund, the Jupiter UK Smaller Companies Fund and the Jupiter Global Technology Fund. Investors should be aware that there are greater risks associated with shares held in this option due to the potential volatility of the market sectors into which the funds within the option invests. Income The aim of the Option is to achieve a high and rising income with capital growth. To achieve this your initial investment would be divided equally between the Jupiter Income Trust, Jupiter Growth & Income Fund and the Jupiter High Income Fund. Distributions will be made in February, May, June, August, November and December. Growth The aim of the Option is to provide investors with a diversified growth portfolio in UK, European and international investments. To achieve this your initial investment would be split 25% in each of the following Jupiter UK Special Situations Fund, Jupiter UK Growth Fund, Jupiter European Fund and the Jupiter Fund of Investment Trusts. International The aim of the Option is to achieve capital growth through investment in a concentrated international portfolio, providing investment in international equities including the financial and property sectors. To achieve this your initial investment will be divided equally between the Jupiter Global Opportunities Fund and the Jupiter Financial Opportunities Fund. Pick Your Own The aim of this Option is to provide you with the opportunity to select your own asset allocation. You may select any number of the Jupiter Funds offered. There are five methods of investing: 1. Lump Sum investment. For investors wishing to make a lump sum investment, the minimum amount is 1,000 apart from investors wishing to receive monthly income from the Jupiter Monthly Income Fund where the minimum is 5,000. The maximum amount is set out in the tables overleaf. 2. Regular Monthly Savings. You may contribute regular amounts each month for investment in the Fund(s) of your choice. The minimum amount is 50 per month. The maximum amount is set out in the tables overleaf. 3. Dividend Re-Investment. The dividends you receive from your investment can be reinvested to increase your existing holding without counting towards your annual subscription limit. (Dividends are referred to in more detail under Distributions.) 4. Transfer. You may transfer an existing ISA from another ISA manager to Jupiter. The ISA to be transferred must be in cash at the point of transfer. (Transfers are referred to in more detail under How do I invest ). 5. Maturing TESSAs. You may transfer the capital element of your maturing TESSA to the cash component of the Jupiter Maxi ISA. This will not count towards your annual subscription. This means you are free to subscribe for the Jupiter ISA in line with above limits. TESSAs are referred to in more detail under Transfer of maturing TESSAs. RISK FACTORS Risks applicable to all Jupiter Funds The investments in a Fund s portfolio are subject to normal stock market fluctuation and other risks inherent in all investments. There can be no assurance that capital appreciation will occur in the early years as initial charges are levied on your initial investment and are not made uniformly throughout the life of the investment. You should therefore regard your investment as long term. Some charges (e.g. management fees) may be charged to capital. In such circumstances the income and the quoted yield will be boosted but the capital growth will be restrained. The value of investments, and the income from them may go down as well as up and an investor may not be able to realise the full amount of the original investment. Quoted yields are for illustrative purposes only and are not guaranteed. Past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance. Changes in exchange rates between currencies may cause the value of your investment to increase or diminish. The risk is greater in relation to investment in emerging market countries which may experience political and economic changes. Investors should be aware that the current favourable tax treatment of ISAs may not be maintained and may be subject to future government legislation. Investors should be aware that if they wish to take advantage of the cancellation option, (if available to them), they may not get back the amount of subscription if the price of their units falls between the date of investment and the date of the cancellation notice being received by Jupiter. Additional risks specific to Jupiter Monthly Income Fund The Fund invests mainly in a range of income shares of split capital investment trusts. Split capital trusts are, in general, more highly geared than conventional investment trusts and have, by definition, a wind-up date. There can be no guarantee that predetermined payment prices of shares in split capital trusts on wind-up dates will be achieved. The ultimate repayment price of these shares depends on the value of the underlying holdings. However, the Manager of the Fund will hold and actively switch between income shares to not only provide a high level of income, but collectively provide you with the best prospect of capital security. Up to 20% of the portfolio may be held in higher yielding bonds. These have an increased risk of capital erosion due to a higher possibility of default by the bond issuer. Changing market conditions and interest rate levels can also have a larger impact on the values of high yielding bonds than on other bonds.

6 Due to the overall structure of the portfolio, the level of monthly income payments will not be constant and will fluctuate. Additional risks specific to Jupiter Global Technology Fund Investors in the Fund should be aware that there are greater risks associated with the shares held in this type of fund, due to the potential volatility of the market sectors in which the fund invests. PRINCIPAL FEATURES How do ISAs work? Background to ISAs From 6th April 1999 you have not been able to subscribe to a Personal Equity Plan (PEP) or open a new Tax Exempt Special Savings Account (TESSA). To replace them the government introduced Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs or Accounts). The Accounts were set up under The Individual Savings Accounts Regulations 1998 (Statutory Instrument 1998 number 1870, as amended from time to time). There are three types of ISA: MAXI ISA MINI ISA TESSA ONLY ISA Maxi ISAs may be invested in: an investment component (made up of stocks and shares) a cash component an insurance component. A Maxi ISA must include the investment component, and may include a cash and/or insurance component. Investors need not subscribe to each component, and can only invest with one Maxi ISA manager in a tax year. Once an investor has invested in a Maxi ISA they cannot invest in individual Mini ISAs in the same tax year. Mini ISAs may be invested individually in: an investment component (made up of stocks and shares) a cash component an insurance component An investor can invest with up to three different Mini ISA managers in a tax year. The main reason why a distinction has been made between Maxis and Minis is to enable investors the facility to either place the whole of their annual contribution into an ISA with one ISA manager (Maxi) or to subscribe with different ISA managers for individual components (Minis). The one-isa-a-tax-year rule In each tax year, subject to certain limits, investors may subscribe to: one Maxi ISA, or one of each of the individual Mini ISAs The Jupiter ISA The Investment component of your ISA can be made up of any of the Jupiter Funds as listed, excluding the Jupiter Cash Fund. The cash component of the Jupiter ISA comprises the Jupiter Cash Fund only. The Jupiter ISA does not contain an insurance component. Maxi & Mini ISAs Jupiter offers the investment and cash components of a Maxi ISA should you choose to have one ISA manager. Jupiter also offers Mini ISAs with single components for investment and cash should you choose to have separate managers in a financial year. CAT standards The Jupiter ISA does not aim to meet the CAT standard (Charges, Access and Terms). A CAT standard ISA does not necessarily mean it is suitable for your circumstances or that the product is the best performing in the market. Our aim is to achieve the best possible investment returns. For further information on the CAT standard you should consult your financial adviser. For maturing TESSA holders Jupiter do not offer a TESSA only ISA, however investors can transfer the capital element of their maturing TESSA into the Jupiter Cash Fund. The capital element of such a transfer will not count towards the subscription limits. Transfers of maturing TESSAs are referred to in more detail later. How much can I invest? With the exception of investment in income units in the Jupiter Monthly Income Fund, the minimum lump sum investment amount is 1,000 into either the Jupiter Maxi ISA or the Jupiter Mini ISAs. Alternatively you can contribute regular amounts each month, the total minimum amount being 50 per month. See Table 1 for the subscription details: TABLE 1 Maxi ISA Mini ISA Tax year 2000/2001 Lump Sum Regular Savings Lump Sum Regular Savings Total Investment Up to 7,000 Up to 583 per Up to 3,000 Up to 250 per month month Cash Up to 3,000 Up to 250 per Up to 3,000 Up to 250 per month month Note: The maximum total subscription into the Jupiter Maxi ISA is 7,000 for the tax year 2000/2001. The maximum total subscription into Jupiter Mini ISAs is 6,000 for the tax year 2000/2001. Subscription can only be made into the investment and cash components through the Jupiter ISA. An insurance component is not provided within the Jupiter ISA. The amounts specified may be subject to regulatory change from year to year. Investors into the Jupiter Monthly Income Fund should note that if they wish to receive monthly income they must invest in income units and the initial investment must be for a minimum of 5,000. Investors who wish to take advantage of this facility must complete the Income Payment box on the application form as income can only be paid directly into a bank account. Investors who wish to receive their income on a quarterly, as opposed to monthly, basis should refer to the notes under Distributions and contact Jupiter for an application form. Lump sum investments into the Jupiter Monthly Income Fund between 1,000 and 4,999, together with any regular savings contributions, will be automatically invested into accumulation units. How do I invest?

For Funds, other than the Jupiter Cash Fund, the effect of the above charges and expenses on an investment of 5,000 in a particular Fund, assuming growth of 7% a year and distributed or reinvested income, is set out below. The growth rate is not guaranteed, it is purely used for the purposes of demonstrating the effect of charges and expenses on an investment of 5,000 into a particular Fund. The gross annual yields as used in these calculations and shown below are based on the gross yields as quoted in September 1999 except in respect of the Jupiter Monthly Income Fund, Jupiter Global Technology Fund and Jupiter Environmental Opportunities Fund

8 which are based on estimates at launch. Where the gross yields are shown as nil it either reflects an actual nil projected yield or in Jupiter s opinion they are immaterial for the purposes of this exercise. The yield for each Fund is shown daily in the Financial Times or is available, on request, from the Manager. As with the growth rate the quoted yields are not guaranteed. With the exception of the Jupiter Income Trust, Jupiter Growth & Income Fund and Jupiter High Income Fund, when calculating the return, income is deemed to be reinvested or accumulated. In respect of the Jupiter Corporate Bond Fund and Jupiter Monthly Income Fund the figures reflect income withdrawn and income reinvested/accumulated. The last line of each block in the table in respect of each Fund shows the financial effect of total charges and expenses over 10 years. The column entitled Annual Investment Growth after Charges shows the effect these charges have in bringing down the illustrated investment growth from 7%. For example, if you invested in the Jupiter Income Trust, the last line of the table shows that over 10 years the effect of total charges and expenses could amount to 1,750. Putting it another way, if the growth rate were to be 7%, which is in no way guaranteed, this would have the effect of reducing this growth rate to 4.6% a year.

Putting it another way, if the growth rate were to be 5% which is no way guaranteed, this would have the effect of reducing this growth rate to 4.3% a year. The figures contained within Tables 2 and 3 are not guaranteed. They are based on notional rates of growth, which may not be achieved and serve only to illustrate the effect of charges and expenses on the value of the investment. HOW MUCH WILL ADVICE COST? Jupiter and its staff are not permitted to advise you on the suitability or otherwise of investing in the Account. You may take the advice of an authorised Independent Financial Adviser who will give you details about the cost of the advice. The amount will depend on the size and frequency of your investment or investments and in the case of regular savings, the period for which you make them. It will be paid out of the charges. If you apply for an Account on the advice of an authorised Independent Financial Adviser, Jupiter will usually pay them commission up to a maximum of 3% of all application monies and may pay renewal commission, based on 0.5% of the value of units each year. The renewal commission is funded by the Manager from the annual management fee charged to the underlying Fund. However, no initial or renewal commission is paid in respect of investment into the Jupiter Cash Fund. FURTHER INFORMATION Charges The effect of our charges is shown in tables 2 and 3. Jupiter may increase charges up to the maximum contained in the Trust Deed of each applicable Fund but only after it has given written notice to unitholders and 90 days have elapsed from the date that the Scheme Particulars for the Fund became available. Distributions Distributions or interest distributed/accumulated to ISA investors will be free of tax, i.e. they will be received net of tax and the associated tax credit or income tax deducted from such distributions/accumulations will be reclaimed on behalf of the investors. See also What about tax. Income, if any, net of tax will normally be distributed/accumulated each year on the dates as indicated in Table 4. In respect of any tax credits or income tax reclaimed on behalf of the investor Jupiter has the discretion to pay this to investors at the same time as the net payment is made. Investors, other than in respect of accumulation Funds, may reinvest their income through the purchase of further units. Such income will be reinvested on the payment day based on the offer price calculated at the valuation point on that day. Reclaimed tax credits or income tax will be reinvested on receipt. However Jupiter has the discretion to reinvest the tax on the same as date as the net reinvestment takes place. In respect of accumulation Funds any tax credits or income tax reclaimed will be automatically reinvested. Investors in respect of the Jupiter Monthly Income Fund who have opted to receive their income quarterly, should note that their monthly distributions will be held on their behalf in a non-interest bearing client money account and paid out by cheque on the 5th August; 5th November; 5th February and 5th May of each year.
