          November 2011 was 93.66 pence. Taking in to account dividends paid to date, the

Investment in Structured Products 
 
 
 
As at 30 November 2011, the following investments had been made in Structured 
Products. The Structured Products will achieve their target return subject to 
the Final Index Level of the FTSE 100 being higher than the Initial Index Level 
*. The capital is at risk on a one-for-one basis ("CAR") if the FTSE 100 Index 
falls more than 50 per cent. any time during the investment term and fails to 
fully recover at maturity such that the Final Index Level is below the Initial 
Index Level. 
 
 
 
At 10 January 2012 the FTSE 100 was 5696.70. Since the Half Year, the FTSE 100 
has climbed and now sits above many of the products' strike levels. As a 
consequence of this, the values of these Structured Products have increased 
considerably and the value of the portfolio has increased in line. 
 
 
 
Over the past three months the volatility has dropped off, which has negatively 
affected valuations. 5 year swap rates have also decreased, which has also had 
a negative impact on the valuations of the Structured Products' portfolio. The 
strong performance on the FTSE 100 has, however, had the largest impact on the 
current value of the portfolio, increasing its value over the last quarter.

*The Final Index Level is calculated using 'averaging', meaning that the 
average of the closing levels of the FTSE 100 is taken on each Business Day 
over the last 2-6 months of the Structured Product plan term (the length of the 
averaging period differs for each plan). The use of averaging to calculate the 
return can reduce adverse effects of a falling market or sudden market falls 
shortly before maturity. Equally, it can reduce the benefits of an increasing 
market or sudden market rises shortly before maturity.
