INVESTMENT FUND (IRELAND) plc (the “Company”), which is an open-ended umbrella
investment company with segregated liability between Sub-Funds and with variable capital
incorporated in Ireland on 5 February 2003 and authorised on 27 March 2003 by the Irish
Financial Services Regulatory Authority (the “Financial Regulator”), under the European
Communities (UCITS) Regulations, 2003, as amended. The Company has two Sub-Funds,
Oasis Crescent Global Property Equity Fund and Oasis Crescent Global Equity Fund.
Potential investors are advised to read the full Prospectus dated 31 March 2009 and the
Supplements 1 and 2 dated 31 March 2009 (together the “full Prospectus”) before making an
investment decision. The rights and duties of the investor as well as the legal relationship with
the company are laid down in the full Prospectus.
The base currency of each Sub-Fund is US Dollars.

Oasis Crescent Global Equity Fund – To actively invest mainly in shares of
companies listed on the international stock exchanges and traded on markets set out
in Appendix 1 to the Prospectus.
The Sub-Funds shall invest in shares of companies that are Shari’ah compliant
according to the guidelines set by the Investment Manager and Shari’ah advisors to
the Portfolio. In summary the guidelines provide that all companies are excluded
which conduct their core business in or in relation to alcohol, pork-related products,
gambling, pornography, and companies whose major source of income is generated by
interest, and companies that are associated with high levels of debt, interest bearing
securities and high levels of accounts receivable or gearing.
Income accrued to the Company sources as discussed above is termed “non-
permissible income”.
Although the Company will continue to endeavour to avoid investments that will
produce non-permissible income, it remains an inevitable part of investing in
conventional markets. Such non-permissible income will be stripped out of the
dividends paid by the Company before such dividends are distributed to Shareholders.
Non-permissible income is paid to a registered charitable organisation, as decided by
the Directors, and distributed to charitable causes.

Equity Fund – The investments of the sub-funds in securities are subject to normal
market fluctuations and other risks inherent in investing in securities. A complete
description of risk factors is set out in the full Prospectus and includes currency risk,
political risk and emerging market risk.
The value of investments and the income from them, and therefore the
value and income from Shares relating to each Sub-Fund can go down as
well as up and an investor may not receive back the amount invested. A
more detailed description of the risk factors that apply to the Company is
set out in the full Prospectus.
