We are also writing to you to notify you of the proposed appointment of Bridge Fund Management Limited (the "Manager") as the UCITS management company of the Company and the impact this appointment will have on the Memorandum and Articles of Association for the Company (the “M&A”) and the fees payable by the Company .
我們亦致函通知您，我們擬委任 Bridge Fund Management Limited（「管理公司」）為本公司 UCITS之管理公司，以及該委任將對本公司組織章程大綱及細則產生之影響（ 「公司章程」），及本公司應支付之費用。
2. FOR REVIEW AND CONSIDERATION
供審查及考量
The following are the matters for review and consideration by the Members:
以下為供股東審查及考量之事項：
1. To review and consider the amendments to the M&A and the imposition of a Management Fee (as defined below) regarding the proposed appointment of the Manager as further outlined herein.
有關提議之管理公司委任之公司章程調整及管理費用施加(如下定義)之審閱及考慮，將於以下進一步詳述。
CHANGES TO THE M&A AND THE PROPOSED APPOINTMENT OF THE MANAGER
公司章程變動及管理公司委任之提議
Background
背景
The Company is currently authorised by the Central Bank as a self-managed investment company.
本公司目前由中央銀行授權為自行管理之投資公司。
It is proposed that the Company will appoint the Manager as its UCITS management company (the “Proposed Appointment”).
茲提議本公司將委任管理公司作為其 UCITS 之管理公司(「委任提議」)。
Rationale for the Proposed Appointment
委任提議之理由
The rationale for the Proposed Appointment is primarily to enhance the Company’s corporate governance structure in an evolving regulatory environment. There are a number of reasons why such enhancement is viewed as being necessary for the Company including, the increasing administrative complexity associated with the operation of the Company owing to the number of sub-funds, the additional regulatory obligations and requirements imposed by the Central Bank, the complexity associated with maintaining the full suite of the Company’s policies and procedures and the emergence of the management company as the preferred organisational and corporate governance structure for UCITS funds.
委任提議之理由主要是為了在不斷變化的監理環境中加強本公司的治理架構。有諸多理由認為此等變更對於本公司而言係屬必要，包括本公司運作上因子基金之數量而益增之行政複雜度、中央銀行額外施加之監理義務及要求、維持本公司完整政策及程序之複雜度，而此亦顯現管理公司是UCITS 基金首選的組織及公司治理架構。
Implications of the Proposed Appointment
委任提議之影響
Once the Proposed Appointment is effective, the Company will become an externally managed investment company and will cease to operate as a self-managed investment company.
一旦委任提議生效，本公司將成為一外部管理之投資公司，並將停止以自行管理投資公司運作。
The appointment of the Company's various service providers and the related material contracts will, pursuant to the requirements of the Central Bank, be adjusted as applicable to reflect the presence of the Manager in the Company's organisational structure (for example, the Manager will now appoint the Company's administrator Brown Brothers Harriman Fund Administration Services (Ireland) Limited (the “Administrator”) and the Company’s investment manager Nomura Asset Management U.K. Limited (the “Investment Manager”).
本公司各服務提供者之委任及相關重要合約將依據中央銀行之要求調整，以適切地反映管理公司於公司組織架構之存在（例如，管理公司現將委任公司之行政管理人 Brothers Harriman Fund Administration Services (Ireland) Limited（「行政管理人」）及本公司之投資經理 Nomura Asset Management UK Limited（「投資經理」）。
The Investment Manager will continue their appointment as the investment manager of the relevant Sub- Funds and the Manager will at all times continue to delegate the investment management function in respect of the Sub-Funds to the Investment Manager.
投資經理將繼續被委任為相關子基金的投資經理，管理公司並將始終持續將有關子基金之投資管理職能委派予投資經理。
As outlined above, the Company’s corporate governance structure will change with the Manager assuming responsibility for ensuring compliance with many of the Company’s obligations under the UCITS Regulations and the Central Bank’s Fund Management Companies Guidance. The Proposed Appointment will not, however, result in any change in the investment management style or level of risk in the Sub-Funds’ portfolios.
如上述，本公司之治理架構將隨基金管理公司之責任而改變，以確保其遵守 UCITS 條例及中央銀行基金管理公司指引規定之諸多公司義務。 然而，委任提議將不會導致子基金投資組合之投資管理形式或風險層級發生任何變化。
The Proposed Appointment will result in amendments to the M&A and the imposition of a management fee payable to the Manager in respect of each of the Sub-Funds as will be disclosed in the Prospectus of the Company (the “Prospectus”) previously (the “Management Fee”).
委任提議將導致公司章程之修訂，並徵收將於本公司公開說明書（「公開說明書」）中揭露之各子基金應向管理公司支付之管理費 （「管理費」）。
Changes to the M&A of the Company requiring Members’ approval
公司章程變動需經股東同意
Subject to Members’ approval and any changes as may be required to comply with the requirements of the Central Bank, it is proposed to amend the M&A to permitthe Proposed Appointment . Extracts of the revised M&A (highlighting proposed changes) are included in Appendix B to this Circular.
經股東核准及為遵守中央銀行之要求而可能需進行之任何更改，茲提議修改公司章程以允許委任提議。修訂公司章程之摘錄（標示提議變更）包含於本通知信之附錄 B 。
If approved by the Members, the changes to the M&A required to facilitate the Proposed Appointment will become effective on the date such resolution is passed. A full copy of the revised M&A reflecting the proposed changes in Appendix B may be obtained at the registered office of the Company.
如果經股東批准，為促進委任提議所需之公司章程變更將於該決議通過之日生效。 反映附錄 B 中之提議變更之經修訂公司章程之完整影本可於本公司的登記辦公室索取。
Imposition of a Management Fee requiring Members’ approval
實施管理費需經股東同意
The Management Fee will take effect on the Effective Date (as defined below). The Management Fee proposed to be disclosed in the Prospectus which requires Members’ approval is the maximum Management Fee that the Manager can charge as detailed below and it is this Management Fee that requires your approval:
管理費將於生效日期（如下定義）生效。 擬揭露於公開說明書且需經股東同意之管理費，為管理公司所得收取之最高管理費，詳情如下述。且該管理費需經您的同意：
Pursuant to the management agreement between the Company and the Manager, the Manager is entitled to charge the Company an annual fee not to exceed a maximum of 0.01% of the Net Asset Value of the Company per annum. The Manager’s fee shall be subject to the imposition of VAT if required. The fee will be calculated and accrued daily and is payable monthly in arrears. The Manager’s fee may be waived or reduced by the Manager, in consultation with the Directors. The Manager shall also be entitled to be repaid all of its out of pocket expenses out of the assets of the Company.] The Manager shall be entitled to be reimbursed out of the assets of each Sub-Fund for any VAT on all fees and expenses payable to or by it.
根據本公司與管理公司之間之管理協議，管理公司有權向本公司收取每年最高不超過公司資產淨值 0.01%的年費。如有需要，就管理公司之費用應徵收增值稅。 該費用將按日計算及累積，並按月支付。經與董事協商，管理公司得免除或減少管理公司費用。 管理公司亦有權自本公司資產受償其所有代墊費用。管理公司有權從各子基金的資產中就其應付或由其支付的所有費用和支出支增值稅受償。
Notwithstanding the imposition of the Management Fee, given that the Company no longer has to comply with the requirement to appoint designated persons pursuant to the Central Bank's Fund Management Companies Guidance, such designated persons services that are currently being provided by a third party to the Company, will no longer be incurred by the Company. As a result, it is anticipated that the fees payable to the Manager as a UCITS management company will not result in a significant increase in fees payable by the Company. However, the imposition of the Management Fee requires the approval of Members in accordance with the Central Bank’s requirements as there has been, to date, no management fees payable to a UCITS management company. As such, your approval of the imposition of the Management Fee, is required.
儘管收取管理費，鑑於本公司不再需要遵守根據中央銀行之基金管理公司指引指定特定人員之要求，目前由第三方向本公司提供的此類特定人員服務將不再由公司承擔。因此，預期作為 UCITS 管理公司而向管理公司支付之費用，將不會導致本公司應付費用顯著增加。 然而，因迄今為止並未曾向 UCITS 管理公司支付管理費，該管理費之收取依據中央銀行之要求需經股東同意， 因此需要您同意該等管理費之收取。
Aside from the proposed amendments to the M&A, it is anticipated that the Proposed Appointment will have no adverse effect on the rights of Members and will be generally in their best interests. All costs and expenses associated with the Proposed Appointment including but not limited to legal fees, costs in relation to printing and issuance of this notice will be borne by the Company.
除了對公司章程之修訂提議外，預計委任提議將不會對股東權利產生不利影響，並且整體上符合其最佳 利益。 與委任提議相關之所有成本及費用，包括但不限於法律費用以及印刷及發布本通知之有關費用，將由本公司承擔。
Effective Date
生效日期
The Proposed Appointment is intended to take effect upon the Proposed Appointment being cleared by the Central Bank and the revised Prospectus and management agreement appointing the Manager being noted by the Central Bank. It is currently expected that the Proposed Appointment will be effected on or around 29th April 2022 (the "Effective Date").
委任提議擬於中央銀行核准委任提議，以及中央銀行備查經修訂公開說明書及委任管理公司之管理協議後生效。 目前預計委任提議將於 2022 年 4 ⽉ 29 ⽇或其前後生效（「生效日」）。
On the Effective Date, the Company will appoint the Manager to act as its UCITS management company by way of a management agreement entered into by the Company and the Manager.
於生效日，本公司將藉由本公司與管理公司訂立之管理協議，指派管理公司作為其 UCITS 之管理公司。
An application will be filed with the Central Bank with effect from the Effective Date to alter the Company's status as a self-managed investment company to an externally managed investment company.
