SIAM INVESTMENT FUND NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 MARCH 2003 AND 2002 1 Business activities Siam Investment Fund ('the Fund') is a closed-end investment fund and was incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability in the Cayman Islands on 22 February 1996. The Fund obtained a listing for its shares on the London Stock Exchange on 25 April 1996. The Fund's investment objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation through investments primarily in unlisted companies, joint ventures and projects. Previously, such investments were in the Southeast Asian region; however, following a change in mandate, approved at a shareholders meeting held on 6 March 1998, the Fund may now invest up to 100% of its capital in listed and unlisted companies in Thailand. 2 Duration The Fund may be dissolved on 31 March 2006. However, with the approval from the holders of at least two-thirds of the shares of the Fund, approved at or prior to the annual general meeting in 2006, the term of the Fund may be extended for an additional two years to 31 March 2008. 3 Significant accounting policies a) Basis of preparation The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with and are generally consistent with the International Accounting Standards. These require the Fund's Directors to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts and disclosure in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain marketable securities and investment properties. b) Cash equivalents The Fund considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. c) Investments All securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the closing market price. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued by the Directors at cost to the Fund or at a valuation based on third-party transactions in the same or in similar investments or at fair market value taking into consideration the cost of the investments, the quoted prices of investments of comparable publicly traded companies, market conditions, the underlying collateral, financial data and projections of the issuer of any relevant securities, and such other factors as the Directors may deem relevant. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are reported on an identified cost basis. Dividend and interest income is accounted for on an accrual basis. Discounts on securities purchased are amortised over the life of the respective securities. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, including those relating to foreign exchange translation of the original cost of investment into US Dollars at the balance sheet date, are appropriated as capital reserve. d) Foreign currency transactions Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into United States dollars at the rates of exchange ruling on the transaction dates. All assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated into United States dollars at the rate of exchange ruling at that date. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on translation of foreign currencies relating to the carrying value of investments are charged directly to income statements before being appropriated as the capital reserves. All other realized and unrealized gains and losses on translation of foreign currencies are included in the income and expenditure account. e) Interest income Interest income is recognised under the accrual basis. For the year ended 31 March 2003, interest income arising from cash and cash equivalents was US$ 15,934 (2002: US$ 29,799) and no interest income arising from investments. (2002: US$ 306,864). 4 Investments US$ 2003 2002 Listed securities, at market value 18,109,431 22,252,948 Unlisted securities, at Directors valuation 458,236 1,936,121 Investments - net 18,567,667 24,189,069 Cost of investments 23,863,782 23,157,618 The fund has taken conservative approach to set up provision for non- recovery of its investments in equity investment and debt investments up to 82% and 100%, respectively, in the year ended March 31, 2003.

Northbridge Communities Ltd. ('NCL') operates international schools and related property developments. Thailand-The International School Eastern Seaboard (ISE) continues to enroll approximately 300 students in grades pre-school through 12. The school is running a cash surplus that is being applied to repay loans. The 13 single-family homes owned by NCL are fully leased to families from the corporate community including General Motors Thailand and Bayer Thailand. Cambodia-The Northbridge International School Cambodia (NISC) continues to grow in student enrollment. The school now has more than 220 students in grades pre-school to 12. The school is running a cash surplus that is being applied to repay the loan from the parent, NCL. The first phase of the apartment development (16 units in 2 buildings) is fully leased. The first phase of the single-family homes (14 houses) are leased or sold. Two banks in Cambodia have offered financing for the second set of apartments. NCL is negotiating the final rate before signing the loan. The second phase of the single-family homes will be built according to demand. There is also consideration for a second school building in the next two years. Vietnam-Discussions are being held in Hanoi with NCL's joint venture partners and other property developers to re-start the North Thang Long Joint Venture Company. This company, in which NCL holds a 60% shareholding, has been given an investment license to develop 86 Hectares just north of the Thang Long bridge to the International Airport. (b) Monterey Pizza Co., Ltd. The convertible term loan to Monterey Pizza Co., Ltd. ('Monterey') is denominated in US$ and carries interest at six month US$ LIBOR, payable every six months. The loan is secured by the major shareholders of Monterey and was repayable in full prior to 20 December 1998. As part of the loan agreement, the Fund has the right to convert a portion of the term loan into Monterey Shares equivalent to 250,000 Monterey shares (with par value of Baht 100 per share) which have been placed in escrow. Monterey has experienced financial difficulties since 1997. Interest has not been paid when due. The Fund has stopped accruing interest since December 1997. A legal demand for payment of principal and accrued interest has been made to Monterey as well as to 2 directors who have guaranteed the loan. The court ruled in favor of the Fund's demand for Baht 108 million. The defendants have been asked by the court to settle with the Fund. The loan has already been written down to zero. (c) Asia Pacific Resources Ltd. The original investment in Asia Pacific Resources Ltd. ('APQ') was through a convertible debenture denominated in US$ and secured by Pacific Corporate Trust Company, as Trustee. The debenture was originally due to mature on 13 August 2000 but this was subsequently extended by one year. The debenture carried interest at 10%. As part of the debenture agreement, the Fund had the right to convert the term debenture into APQ shares at US$ 2.32 per share. In December 2001, the maturity of the debenture was further extended to 28 February 2002. In February 2002, the Company announced a significant refinancing exercise which included both a rights issue and the conversion of the convertible debentures at a revised conversion price of C$ 0.20 per share. Under the financing terms, Crew Development Corporation, the principal shareholder in APQ and Olympus Capital Holdings Asia I, L.P., the principal holder of the convertible debenture, undertook to provide interim financing and a minimum funding injection of up to a combined C$ 10 million in the event that the subscriptions amounted to less than C$ 20 million. In the event, the Fund received a total of 25,590,466 shares in APQ as a result of the conversion. These shares were delivered on 17 April 2002. APQ shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The market value of APQ common share as at 31 March 2003 was US$ 0.0511 (2002: US$ 0.1095) per share. Credit risk The Fund has significant investments in Thailand which may involve greater risk than investments in more developed markets. The prices of such investments may be volatile. The yields of emerging market debt obligations reflect, amongst other matters, perceived credit risk. The consequences of political, social or economic changes in Thailand may have disruptive effects on the market prices of the Fund's investments and the income they generate. Currency risk All of the Fund's equity investments where the investee company is incorporated in Thailand are subject to currency risk as the investee shares are denominated in Thai Baht. The Fund's debt investments are denominated in US$ and is thus not exposed to currency risk. Fair values Listed and unlisted investments are stated at market values and Directors' valuations respectively. At 31 March 2003, in the opinion of the Directors, the carrying values of the listed and unlisted investments approximate their fair values.
