Why Hinde Gold Fund?

Hinde Gold Fund is a managed gold fund that maintains a long bias. The Fund offers investors the opportunity to seek the preservation of capital against the potential erosion of the purchasing power of fiat paper money. The core of the Fund s assets are held in the form of allocated physical gold bars stored in the secure vaults of Bank Julius Baer (BJB), a private bank in Zurich, Switzerland. The Fund targets a significant return in excess of its designated benchmark, the USD spot gold bullion price. 01 Why Hinde Gold Fund?

Why Hinde Gold Fund? Hinde Capital is a London-based investment manager. The Firm s flagship fund, Hinde Gold Fund, specializes in the precious metals sector. Hinde Capital Ltd (authorized and registered by the FSA) is the investment manager to Hinde Gold Fund, a managed fund for all types of investors, including high-net-worth individuals and institutional firms. The minimum investment is US$100,000 or the EUR or GBP equivalent. Hinde Gold Fund is a managed gold fund that maintains a long bias. The Fund offers investors the opportunity to seek the preservation of capital against the potential erosion of the purchasing power of fiat paper money. The core of the Fund s assets are held in allocated physical gold bars stored in secure vaults in Bank Julius Baer (BJB), a private bank in Zurich, Switzerland. The Fund provides exposure to the upside appreciation in the precious metals sector while smoothing out the downside volatility. We reduce and increase allocations to the sector so as to provide an on average constant investment to the gold price. The Fund also has a small allocation to companies engaged in mining, exploration and production in the precious metals sector. The Fund targets a significant return in excess of its designated benchmark, the USD spot gold bullion price. HINDE GOLD FUND A long bias gold bullion fund, which smooths downside volatility A solid return targeted above the USD spot gold price An investment in small-cap gold mining holdings; average is 15% of AUM A secure method of owning physical allocated gold A managed investment in three share classes: EUR, GBP or USD A liquid investment, no subscription or redemption fees, and same month dealing A tax-efficient gold investment SIPP & US IRA monies accepted Hinde Gold Feeder Fund Ltd and Hinde Gold Fund LP will purchase Hinde Gold Fund (Master) shares. All investment assets will be held in the name of Hinde Gold Fund. Investments are made via: Hinde Gold Feeder Fund Ltd (Cayman) Listed on Cayman Stock Exchange Distribution status Hinde Gold Feeder Fund LP (Delaware) A Delaware Limited Partnership for US taxable monies. 02 Why Hinde Gold Fund?

HINDE CAPITAL: A HIGHLY SECURE INVESTMENT Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and other vehicles for gold investment have inherent risks investors may be unaware of. An investment in gold should hedge out all possible credit risks. Hinde Gold Fund achieves this by investing at least 75% of its Assets Under Management (AUM) in allocated gold bullion. Hinde Gold Fund employs KPMG Switzerland to undertake a semi-annual audit of its gold holdings. Please see ETFs (GLD) The New CDO in Disguise? (August, 2010) on our website (www.hindecapital.com) for further detailed analysis of the inherent risks attached to ETFs.

AN INVESTMENT IN GROWING OUNCES Hinde Gold Fund currently invests in junior precious metal equities ( juniors ) which should be considered an adjunct to the bullion strategy. The Fund seeks to obtain an additional capital appreciation to the bullion gold price by an investment of an on average 10% to 15% of assets under management in the juniors, in addition to the bullion holding. These are companies involved in exploration, development and small mining production (200-300koz/ year). The market capitalizations range from US$5mm to US$1bn. The Fund does not seek more leverage to the gold price by this strategy, but seeks to buy ounces in the ground at a deep discount to current market prices, even after extraction costs. A small holding of junior investments can enhance returns irrespective of the direction of the gold price within a $200 to $300 range. The Fund has a team with considerable experience and knowledge to examine prospective precious metals assets. This allows the Fund to make strategic investments in the companies wishing to exploit such assets. The Fund s function is to help finance the de-risking of exploration, especially when it becomes apparent there is economically feasible mining ground. The Fund favours being invested along the whole value creation curve. This means benefitting from a potential exploration find, or from investments in small capitalised producers who extract and process the mining assets. Investment in junior companies, from explorers to small mine producers, can see substantial returns anywhere from 4-8 times original investment. It is not uncommon to experience excess returns in the region of +1000%. The Fund believes there will always be investment opportunities in the junior space, but holdings may be zero if financial conditions are not conducive for good risk/reward, or it is deemed valuation is too expensive. % % 150% 150% 3500 3500 3000 3000 2500 2500 2000 2000 1500 1500 1000 1000 125% 125% 100% 100% 75% 75% EXPENDITURE - LOGARITHMIC SCALE EXPENDITURE - LOGARITHMIC SCALE Regional Regional Selection Area Area Selection Feasibility Study Study Prefeasibility Study Study Mine Mine Production Initiation Initiation 500 500 0 0 GOLD GOLD (VHS) (VHS) 50% 50% JUNIOR JUNIOR MINING MINING EQUITY EQUITY (LHS) (LHS) STAGE Conceptual Conceptual Detailed Detailed Reconnassistancassistance appraisal appraisal drilling drilling drilling drillingdevelop develop Reconn-TargetTarget Exploration Exploration Assessment Assessment Mine Mine planning planning planning planning planning planning STAGE HIGH HIGH RISK RISK DECREASING RISK RISK Mining Mining Decommissioninioning and and Decommiss- rehabilitation rehabilitation VALUE VALUE ACTIVITY Literature Literature Literature Literature Remote Remote Conceptual Conceptual Pilot PilotTest mining Test mining Conceptual Conceptual review review review review and and sensing, sensing, planning, planning, metallurgical metallurgical and and planning planning field visit field visit regional regional ground groundstudiestudies metallurgical metallurgical geochem, geochem, geophysics, geophysics, studies studies airborne airborne mapping, mapping, geophysics geophysics surveying surveying ACTIVITY Gold and silver assets are not subject to the wavering of confidence in the faith and credit of anyone. They cannot be printed or subjected to arbitrary interpretation of accounting rules. Physical bullion is not subject to the subversions of exchanges, regulators, ratings agencies or clearing systems. Nor is it subject to bank failures or sovereign defaults. We see gold ultimately as money, its status unique, defined not by trust in governments, but purely by weight - fine troy ounces. 04 Why Hinde Gold Fund?
