of the capital to be increased, the number of additional investment units to
be issued and offered for sale, the price of additional investment units to be

Unitholders (on Rights Offering), specific investors (on Private Placement),
and retail investors (on Public Offering) are the same. The Management Company

obtaining the approval from the Office of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. At this preliminary stage,the offering period is expected to take
place during 16 October 2009 to 27 October 2009.
Nevertheless, in order to be in line with the resolution of the
Unitholders' Meeting of the Fund dated 17 August 2009 determining the issuance
and offer for sale of the additional investment units to be issued and
offered for sale to the existing Unitholders of not less than 50 percent of
the total investment units to be issued and offered for sale this time, the
Management Company deemed appropriate to determine the subscription

the rate of 1 existing investment unit per 0.2505 investment unit to be
issued and offered for sale this time.

5,680,000,000(which has included expenses for issuance of additional
Investment Units of approximately Baht 100,000,000, which Central
