Remain fully invested and hold small amounts of cash except inextraordinary market, political or similar conditions where the Fundmay temporarily depart from this investment policy.

• The Fund may use investment techniques, including financialderivative instruments, to help the Fund stay fully invested and toreduce costs. A financial derivative instrument is an investmentwhose value is based on the price of another investment (such as astock or index).

• Investment in the Fund should be viewed as medium to long term (atleast 5 years).

• Income from the Fund will be reinvested and reflected in the price ofshares in the Fund.

• Shares in the Fund can be sold on a daily basis (save on certain bankholidays or public holidays and subject to certain restrictionsdescribed in Appendix 1 of the Prospectus) by submitting anapplication in writing or by telephone before 12:00 (Irish time) on the relevant dealing day, or, where you hold shares with a platform, bysubmitting an application seeking the sale of your shares before thedealing cut-off time of the respective platform, provided this is beforethe dealing cut-off time for the Fund.

LEGAL & GENERAL ALL STOCKS GILT INDEX TRUST I CLASSACCUMULATION ISIN: GB00B8344798, DISTRIBUTION ISIN: GB00B8387G12This fund is managed by Legal & General (Unit Trust Managers) Limited.

OBJECTIVES AND INVESTMENT POLICYThe objective of this fund is to provide a combination ofincome and growth by tracking the performance of theFTSE Actuaries British Government All Stocks Index.The fund will invest in bonds (a type of loan which pays interest). The fund's investments will closely match those that make up the Index. This Index consists of bonds which are issued by the UK Government (known as gilts). The gilts that the fund invests in will be investment grade bonds (rated as lower risk). Investment grade bonds are bonds that have achieved a higher credit rating from a rating agency. Credit ratings give an indication of how likely it is that the issuer of a bond will be able to pay back interest and the loan on time. The fund may use derivatives (contracts which have a value linked to the price of another asset) for the following purposes:

• To help with efficient day to day management.

• To reduce some of the risks of the market.

If you hold accumulation units, income from investments held by the fund (interest) will be reinvested into the value of your units. If you hold distribution units, income from investments held by the fund will be paid out to you (as interest). You can buy or sell units in this fund on any working day. You need to contact us with your instruction before 12 noon. This is the time we calculate unit prices for this fund. If you contact us after 12 noon, the units will be bought or sold at the next working day's price. This fund may not be appropriate for investors who plan to withdraw their money within five years.

• This risk and reward indicator is based on historical

data which may not be a reliable indication of thefund's risk and reward category in the future.

• The category is based on the rate at which the valueof the fund has moved up and down in the past.

• This fund is in category 4 because it invests ininvestment grade bonds which generally providelower rewards and lower risks than otherinvestments such as sub-investment grade bonds orcompany shares.

• The fund's category is not guaranteed to remain thesame and may change over time.

• Even a fund in the lowest category is not a risk freeinvestment.

• The value of your investment and any income youtake from it may fall as well as rise and is notguaranteed. You might get back less than youinvested.

The indicator opposite does not take account of thefollowing risks of investing in the fund:

• Because the fund invests in bonds, investment returnsare particularly sensitive to trends in interest ratemovements and inflation. Fund values are likely to fallwhen interest rates rise. Such falls may be morepronounced in a low interest rate environment.

• If you take an income from your investment this willreduce the potential for future growth.

• We will take part of the ongoing charges from the fund'scapital rather than the fund's income. This increases theamount of income you may be paid, but it reduces thegrowth potential and may lead to a fall in the value of thefund.

• If you use your right to cancel your investment, you maynot get a full refund if the value of your investment fallsbefore we receive your instruction.

• This fund invests almost exclusively in bonds issued bythe UK Government. If the UK Government experiencesfinancial difficulty, it may be unable to pay back some orall of the interest, original investment or other paymentsthat it owes. If this happens, the value of your fund mayfall.

These may includefixed income securities which pay income according to a fixed rate ofinterest and will be investment grade (i.e. meet a specified level ofcredit worthiness) at the time of inclusion in the benchmark index.The Fund uses techniques to achieve a similar return to itsbenchmark index. These techniques may include the strategic

selection of certain securities that make up the benchmark index orother fixed income securities which provide similar performance tocertain constituent securities. They may also include the use ofderivatives (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one ormore underlying assets).The Fund may also engage in short-term secured lending of itsinvestments to certain eligible third parties. This is used as a meansof generating additional income and to off-set the costs of the Fund.Recommendation: This Fund may not be appropriate for short-terminvestment.Your units will be accumulating (i.e. dividend income will be includedin their value).Your units will be denominated in Sterling, the Fund's base currency.You can buy and sell your units daily.

The risk indicator was calculated incorporating simulated historicaldata and may not be a reliable indication of the future risk profile ofthe Fund.The risk category shown is not guaranteed and may change over time.The lowest category does not mean risk free.The Fund is rated four due to the nature of its investments whichinclude the risks listed below. These factors may impact the value ofthe Fund’s investments or expose the Fund to losses.- 'Credit Risk' and/or changes to interest rates will have a

significant impact on the performance of fixed income securities

issued by companies. Potential or actual credit rating downgradesmay increase the level of perceived risk.

- Derivatives are highly sensitive to changes in the value of theasset they are based on. The impact to the Fund is greater wherederivatives are used in an extensive or complex way.

Particular risks not adequately captured by the risk indicator include:- Counterparty Risk: The insolvency of any institutions providing

services such as safekeeping of assets or acting as counterpartyto derivatives or other instruments, may expose the Fund tofinancial loss.

- Credit Risk: The issuer of a financial asset held within the Fundmay not pay income or repay capital to the Fund when due.

- Liquidity Risk: Lower liquidity means there are insufficient buyersor sellers to allow the Fund to sell or buy investments readily.
