(1) The Vision Funds are a group of 7 separate funds with multiple series under the name Vision. Since the restructuring in June 2013, each fund now consists of a single underlying asset or portfolio of related assets. They are all run by the same manager, and hence we consider them as a single line item for the purpose of this and similar analyses.

No other single position is greater than 4.0% of the Net Asset Value of the Company as of 30 September 2015. These four positions listed in Table 1 account for 80.5% of the Net Asset Value of the Company, or 87.6% of the Hedge Fund portfolio excluding cash and equivalents.

Estimated Liquidation Time Line

Gottex continues to provide updates on cash received or imminently to be received by the Company in its monthly factsheets. The liquidity generation has developed more or less in line with Gottex's expectations when it started work as the investment manager.

The portfolio of the Company is now concentrated around four large holdings, the top three of which comprise predominantly real estate assets. Liquidity generation from these assets is very unpredictable. Gottex continues to seek the optimal outcome for shareholders of the Company. Any liquidity generated from any of these holdings will be a material event.

The projection Gottex has produced is shown below in tabular format (table 4). It should be read in conjunction with the caveats laid out below and it will be periodically updated as new information becomes available or changes to existing projections are warranted. Updates to this projection are incorporated into Gottex's monthly factsheet, which is available on the Company website, www.gottexfunds.com/gfir/gfir.

This projection does not include any assumption of sales of hedge fund investments in the secondary market for such interests. This would achieve an acceleration of the return of capital, but would also reduce the aggregate amount of capital returned as such sales are likely to occur at a discount to stated net asset value and/or reserved carrying value of the underlying hedge fund.

The distribution of cash to Shareholders is at the discretion of the Board, and it should be recognised that the table below shows when underlying fund investments are projected to monetise assets. Return of capital from those fund investments to the Company typically occurs 30-90 days after that monetisation, and the Company holds a cash-equivalent receivable during that period. Only when actual cash is paid out is the Company in a position to return capital to Shareholders.

The Board intends to make periodic returns of cash to Shareholders via tender offers as and when, in their opinion, there is sufficient cash available to make it cost efficient to do so. As at the date of this interim management statement, the cash held by the Company is GBP1.267m.

Disclaimer:

This projection has been prepared by Gottex based on highly subjective analyses of complex and dynamic investments held by underlying fund investments. The analyses are dependent on information sourced from the investment managers of the underlying fund, and hence the accuracy of the projections produced by Gottex is reliant on the accuracy of that information. In many cases the range of possible outcomes from the underlying asset investments is extremely wide in both value and timing. This range of outcomes will also become significantly more unpredictable the further into the future projections are made.

The projection is provided for the purpose of informing Shareholders as to the possible timing of the return of capital from the Company, but it should be understood that the actual amount and timing of the return of capital will not be as projected. There are many reasons why this will occur. These include, but are not limited to:

   1.    Inaccurate or optimistically-skewed information provided by the underlying managers; 

2. Unpredictable events such as the appearance of a third-party buyer for a given underlying asset;

   3.    Changes in the values of underlying assets as prices change in global asset markets; 

4. Changes in the foreign exchange markets, causing translation effects as foreign assets are marked back into pounds;

   5.    Sale of certain positions in the secondary market at a discount to stated net asset value; 

It should also be noted that the analysis does not include any estimate of the fees and expenses that the Company will incur during the period of projection.

The information in the tables above has not been subject to audit and should be considered to be illustrative. It is emphasised that:

-- there is no guarantee that the portfolio can be realised in accordance with the above indicative timetable, or at all;

-- the values of any underlying investments as at the time of realisation may differ significantly from the values relied on in this document;

   --      the estimated portfolio liquidity profile above is indicative only and should not under any circumstances be considered a prediction, forecast or guarantee of the Company's actual portfolio liquidity profile or an indication as to the timing of distributions to Shareholders pursuant to the Company's winding down; and
