Swisscanto Funds Management Ltd. has decided to liquidate the following subfund on 23 March 2009:

The reason for the dissolution is the low fund volume which does not allow any efficient and cost-effective management.

Since 4.00 p.m. on Friday, 13 March 2009, it has not been permitted to issue or redeem any fund units.

Investors will receive the proceeds from the liquidation after the investments have been sold and after the liquidation proceedings have been concluded; the proceeds will probably be credited at the end of March / beginning of April 2009.
