The Trust currently has 198,000,000 Units in issue with a Net Asset Value of 101 fils per Unit as at the date of this Prospectus. The Initial Public Offering (the “Offer” or “Offering”) of 144,394,499 current Units (the “Offer Units”) at a price of BHD 0.100 per Unit (the “Offer Price”), which is equivalent to 72.9% of the Units, is directed at institutional and retail investors in the Kingdom of Bahrain and institutional investors in the wider GCC. The proceeds from the Offering will be paid out to the Pre-Offer Unitholder of the Trust (see ‘Use of Proceeds’ in Section19.5). The Offering will commence on Tuesday November 22, 2016 and will remain open for a period of 15 Calendar Days up to and including Tuesday December 6, 2016 (the “Offer Period”). The Offer Units may be subscribed to through branches (“Approved Branches”) of the receiving bank (the “Receiving Bank”) during the Offer Period (see Section24, ‘Subscription Terms and Conditions’). If the total number of Offer Units applied for by Eligible Applicants is less than or equal to the number of Offer Units offered, all Eligible Applicants will be allotted the number of Units they have applied for. If the total number of Units applied for by Eligible Applicants exceeds the number of Offer Units offered then an Eligible Applicant may be allotted less than the number of Units it applied for (see ‘Allotment Basis’ in Section 24.7). Excess subscription monies, if any, will be refunded to the Applicant by the Receiving Bank. Notification of final allotment and refund of subscription monies, if any, will be made by Thursday December 22, 2016 (see Section 24, ‘Subscription Terms and Conditions’).

The Trust has one class of Units. Each Unit entitles the holder to one vote, and each Unitholder in the Trust (a “Unitholder”) has the right to attend and vote at any Unitholder meetings of the Trust. No Unitholder benefits from any preferential voting rights. The Offer Units will entitle holders to receive distributions declared by the Trust after the approval of the distribution by the CBB and for subsequent fiscal years (see Section 16 ‘Distributions Policy’). Currently, no public market exists for the Units. The Trust has applied to the CBB and the Bahrain Bourse for all of the Units in the Offering to be admitted to trading on the Bahrain Bourse under the symbol “EBRIT”. The Units shall be registered under ISIN (International Securities Identification Number) code BH0005158K14. This document is important.

    Country Advice Bahrain Bahrain – BHR39737 – 14 February 2011 Protests – Treatment of Protesters – Treatment of Shias – Protests in Australia Returnees – 30 January 2012 1. Please provide details of the protest(s) which took place in Bahrain on 14 February 2011, including the exact location of protest activities, the time the protest activities started, the sequence of events, the time the protest activities had ended on the day, the nature of the protest activities, the number of the participants, the profile of the participants and the reaction of the authorities. The vast majority of protesters involved in the 2011 uprising in Bahrain were Shia Muslims calling for political reforms.1 According to several sources, the protest movement was led by educated and politically unaffiliated youth.2 Like their counterparts in other Arab countries, they used modern technology, including social media networks to call for demonstrations and publicise their demands.3 The demands raised during the protests enjoyed, at least initially, a large degree of popular support that crossed religious, sectarian and ethnic lines.4 On 29 June 2011 Bahrain‟s King Hamad issued a decree establishing the Bahrain Independent Commission of Investigation (BICI) which was mandated to investigate the events occurring in Bahrain in February and March 2011.5 The BICI was headed by M. Cherif Bassiouni and four other internationally recognised human rights experts.6 1 Amnesty International 2011, Briefing paper – Bahrain: A human rights crisis, 21 April, p.2 http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/MDE11/019/2011/en/40555429-a803-42da-a68d-

Recommendations 23 2 I. Introduction Bahrain has witnessed several uprisings throughout its contemporary history. Since before its independence, different popular movements have sought the same goal; a democratic society with equal rights. These peaceful movements have been faced with force and resulted in increased repression. The last popular movement of February 2011 was no different. From the first day of the 2011 popular movement, the Bahraini government chose to resort to force to end the peaceful demonstrations. Many protesters were killed because of the security forces’ brutality, either on the streets or under torture in the detention centres. Local and international reports have documented hundreds of cases of torture and ill-treatment. The UN concerned bodies and different international organisations have called on the Bahraini government to address the violations and end impunity. Almost a decade has passed since 14 February 2011, and nothing has changed.
