FACTSHEET - NOVEMBER 2015

"Return of capital by AllBlue"

On 1st December BlueCrest Capital Management LP, as investment manager of AllBlue and the underlying funds, along with the directors of AllBlue, notified the Company of their intention to return capital to investors with effect from the 4th January 2016 dealing date. This includes the return of the capital of BlueCrest AllBlue Fund Limited (BCAB) invested in AllBlue and the leveraged version of AllBlue. Thereafter, BlueCrest will become a private investment partnership. The full announcement can be found at www.bluecrestallblue.com.

Based on the information provided to the board by BlueCrest, approximately 70% of the redemption proceeds will be received by the Company by the end of January 2016, 85% by the end of April 2016 and the balance as soon as practicable thereafter.

The board has announced that it will offer all shareholders the opportunity to elect to receive cash proceeds but it has also received feedback from a number of shareholders of their desire to remain invested. Concurrently, the board has been approached by a considerable number of investment institutions with proposals for the Company to appoint a new investment manager, invest in other funds or to offer a rollover opportunity into other investment vehicles.

The board is currently evaluating these proposals and conducting an initial round of manager interviews before Christmas after which it will assess the viability of these proposals with a view to making a recommendation to shareholders. The board anticipates that any recommendation would be forthcoming before the end of January.

In the meantime, the Company has ceased all purchases of shares in the market and conversions between classes. It has also changed the basis of the estimated and final net asset value calculations with effect from 1st December 2015. Henceforth, these calculations will include a discount factor on the anticipated cash flows and also a provision for estimated costs associated with any return of capital and liquidation. Any costs associated with a rollover or appointment of an investment manager will not be borne by shareholders who elect to receive cash.

Although a continuation vote has been triggered by the Sterling Class of BCAB, given the options outlined above the board will not be offering a continuation vote to shareholders in the near term.

The board will keep shareholders up to date with relevant developments as they arise and all shareholders are recommended to review the Company's Regulatory Information Service announcements.

"November saw another positive performance"

BCAB produced another positive performance of 0.7% in November, bringing the gain for the year to date to 3.9% (Sterling Class NAV). The rolling 12 month return fell slightly to 4.0% delivered with a stable volatility of 3.0%.

Market movements were more muted in November as investors awaited indications of central bank policy and clarity from economic data.

Against this backdrop 6 of the 7 strategies produced positive performance with the strongest gains coming from BlueCrest Emerging Markets, BlueCrest Equity Strategies and BlueTrend 2x. Only BlueCrest Quantitative Equity saw negative performance. Allocations remained unchanged for December and the funds are undertaking an orderly and managed liquidation of positions.
