Manager’s Investment Report Investment Objective and Policy The Fund aims to provide an income in excess of the FTSE All-Share Index yield and to provide capital growth over the long term. The Manager will seek to achieve the investment objective by investing predominantly in the securities of companies domiciled in the UK or in companies which have a significant part of their activities in the UK but which are domiciled or quoted on a regulated market outside the UK. The Fund may also invest in other non-UK domiciled securities which are traded in the UK. The Fund may use depositary receipts and derivatives both for efficient portfolio management and investment purposes. The Fund may also invest in other transferable securities, permitted deposits, money market instruments, cash, near cash and units in collective investment schemes.

Manager’s Investment Report During the period from launch on 31 March 2011 to 24 January 2012, the bid price of the Fund’s R-Class accumulation units rose by 0.5% which compares to a fall of 1.0% of the average performance in the IMA UK Equity Income Sector (Source: Lipper) and a fall of 0.5% on a Sterling adjusted, total return basis from the FTSE All-Share Index (Source: Bloomberg).

Past performance is not a guide to future performance.

The value of investments and any income from them may go down as well as up.

Market/Economic Review The period under review was a volatile one for stockmarkets globally as macro-economic factors dominated the newswires and impacted business confidence levels. High on the list of investors concerns were events in the eurozone. Greek bonds collapsed and signs of stress began to appear in the larger scale Spanish and Italian bond markets. The European authorities took various forms of action but generally failed to adequately deal with the fundamental issue of the solvency of a number of peripheral states. Forecasts for economic growth globally were under pressure as economists estimated the implications of the eurozone crisis on global trade and during the third quarter of 2011, Asian markets sold off sharply on global growth fears. By the end of the review period however, markets had largely recovered as economic growth in the US and Asia remained relatively robust in the face of European weakness and the European Central Bank (ECB) announced exceptional liquidity support to avert a financial market crisis. The combination of better Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data and the ECB support led to a sharp rally in higher risk assets including equities. In the low growth/low interest rate environment experienced over the review period two of the Fund’s key themes of sustainable high yield and robust dividend growth benefited as investors sought attractive

Manager’s Investment Report continued yields with protection from inflation. We continue to focus the portfolio on companies who are able to maintain attractive levels of dividends and can deliver growth in profits and cash flow without dependency on high economic growth.

Fund Review During the review period, the Fund outperformed both the FTSE All-Share Index and more importantly the IMA UK Equity Income Sector.

The Fund was launched on 31 March 2011. At launch a significant proportion of the Fund was invested in companies where we judged the dividend yields to be both attractive and sustainable. In an environment of low interest rates, companies able to pay an attractive dividend yield with the financial strength to be able to sustain those dividend payments can often offer an attractive investment opportunity in a low interest rate environment. In this environment our focus on sustainable yield benefited the performance of the Fund as companies such as Vodafone Group, GlaxoSmithKline, AstraZeneca and Royal Dutch Shell, with strong balance sheets, strong franchises and robust profit sources, benefited from investors searching for yield.

In addition, a significant proportion of the Fund at launch was invested in companies which offer robust dividend growth. In an environment of low economic growth but persistent inflation, those companies able to deliver an attractive and robustly growing dividend stream well in excess of the rate of inflation are likely to prove attractive as investors look for protection from the effects of inflation. We specifically identify companies where we believe the business model, industry dynamics and competitive positioning of a business allows it to protect and grow profits, ideally with structural growth or niche end-markets which will reduce the requirement for broader economic growth for profit growth delivery. In the current environment, these types of companies have performed relatively well in a broader stock market context. Companies such as Weir Group, Croda International, Petrofac and Burberry Group have all delivered high double digit dividend growth which has been rewarded by strong share price appreciation over the review period.

The portfolio also benefited from its holdings in a number of special situations. One example of this is the holding in Lancashire Holdings, a provider of specialist insurance and reinsurance. Despite a large number of natural catastrophes over 2011, Lancashire Holdings delivered an outstanding financial performance generating exceptional profits which were partially returned in the form of a special dividend in November.

Positions sold over the review period include those companies where our original investment thesis no longer holds. Examples of these include insurer Amlin, a company whose poor underwriting performance undermined our confidence in the return profile of the group. We also sold positions in both Smiths Group and Smith & Nephew both following a reassessment of the investment case. Elsewhere we exited positions in WH Smith, Next and Virgin Media shares following strong performances and where we believed the prospect for the businesses were more fairly reflected in share prices.

Manager’s Investment Report continued The proceeds from these sales were used to commence new positions in companies where our fundamental analysis determined a significant discrepancy between the market price of a share and its fair value. Over the review period, we started a new holding in leading engineer Rolls-Royce Holdings which is an industry leader with long service based contracts we believe are undervalued by the market. We also added a holding in engineer Senior which has a record order backlog linked to the Boeing 787 which has recently gone into production ramp-up and as such, offers high visibility earnings growth over the coming years not reflected in the share price. We started a new position in Cineworld Group, the cinema operator, with an attractive sustainable yield as well as Euromoney Institutional Investor, the specialist publisher with strong repeatable subscription revenues and with long term growth potential. Elsewhere the Fund increased its holding in Pearson, the specialist financial and education publisher.

We continue to focus our investments in companies where our conviction levels are highest. The investment process aims to identify companies where future returns are not discounted in the current share price. We remain committed to analysing the fundamental drivers of value creation and invest considerable time in meeting management and assessing the value of the business. The Fund has continued with its policy of focusing on our very best 30 to 40 ideas.

Outlook The level of uncertainty is unusually high, with actions of policy makers seen as key for markets at present. This is particularly true for the eurozone, with consequences for the global economy. However, while the eurozone is beginning its process of bank sector de-leveraging, the US and UK are much farther down the route, therefore, while global growth is likely to remain subdued, there may remain pockets of growth elsewhere. In addition, despite the economic backdrop remaining challenging, the valuation of equities remains attractive, especially relative to other asset classes.

In the low growth/low interest rate environment, we continue to believe sustainable high dividend yield and robust dividend growth will continue to be increasingly attractive to investors. Legal & General Investment Management Limited (Investment Adviser) 17 February 2012

Statement of Responsibilities Statement of the Manager’s Responsibilities The Manager of the Fund is required by the FSA Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook (COLL) to prepare financial statements for each accounting period which give a true and fair view, in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, of the net revenue and the net capital gains or losses on the Scheme property for the accounting period, and the financial position of the Fund at the end of that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Manager is required to:

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

• make judgements and estimates that are prudent and reasonable;

• state whether applicable Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departure disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

• prepare the financial statements on the basis that the Fund will continue in operation unless it is inappropriate to presume this.

The Manager is also required to manage the Fund in accordance with the Trust Deed, the Prospectus and the COLL, maintain proper accounting records to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Authorised Funds issued by the Investment Management Association (IMA) in October 2010 and the COLL and take in these respects reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Statement of the Trustee’s Responsibilities The Trustee is responsible for the safekeeping of all the property of the Scheme (other than tangible moveable property) which is entrusted to it and for the collection of revenue that arises from that property.

It is the duty of the Trustee to take reasonable care to ensure that the Scheme is managed in accordance with the Financial Services Authority’s Collective Investment Scheme sourcebook (COLL), as amended, the Scheme’s Trust Deed and Prospectus, in relation to the pricing of, and dealings in, units in the Scheme; the application of the revenue of the Scheme; and the investment and borrowing of the Scheme.

Report of the Trustee Report of the Trustee to the Unitholders of Legal & General UK Equity Income Fund (“the Fund”) Having carried out such procedures as we considered necessary to discharge our responsibilities as Trustee of the Scheme, it is our opinion that, based on the information available to us and the explanations provided, that, in all material respects, the Manager:

• has carried out the issue, sale, redemption and cancellation, and calculation of the price of the Scheme’s units and the application of the Scheme’s revenue in accordance with the COLL, the Trust Deed and Prospectus, and

• has observed the investment and borrowing powers and restrictions applicable to the Scheme.

Independent Auditors’ Report Independent Auditors’ Report to the Unitholders of Legal & General UK Equity Income Fund (“the Fund”) We have audited the financial statements of Legal & General UK Equity Income Fund for the period ended 24 January 2012 which comprise the statement of total return, the statement of change in net assets attributable to unitholders, the balance sheet, the related notes and the distribution tables. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Financial Statements of Authorised Funds’ issued by the Investment Management Association (the “Statement of Recommended Practice for Authorised Funds”). Respective responsibilities of Authorised Fund Manager and Auditors As explained more fully in the Statement of Manager’s Responsibilities the Authorised Fund Manager is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view.

Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s Ethical Standards for Auditors.

This report, including the opinions, has been prepared for and only for the Fund’s unitholders as a body in accordance with paragraph 4.5.12 of the Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving these opinions, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown or into whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent in writing.

Scope of the audit of the financial statements An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Fund’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the Authorised Fund Manager; and the overall presentation of the financial statements.

In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Authorised Fund Manager’s Report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

11

Independent Auditors’ Report continued Opinion on the financial statements In our opinion the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Fund at 24 January 2012 and of the net revenue and the net capital losses of the scheme property of the Fund for the period then ended; and

• have been properly prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Authorised Funds, the Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook and the Trust Deed.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook In our opinion the financial statements:

• we have obtained all the information and explanations we consider necessary for the purposes of the audit; and

• the information given in the Authorised Fund Manager’s Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

• proper accounting records for the Fund have not been kept; or

• the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns.

Notes to the Financial Statements 1. Accounting Policies (a) Basis of accounting The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of investments and in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Authorised Funds issued by the IMA in October 2010.

(b) Recognition of revenue Revenue from quoted equities and non-equity shares is recognised net of attributable tax credits when the security is quoted ex-dividend. Revenue from unquoted equity investments is recognised net of attributable tax credits when the dividend is declared.

Overseas revenue received after the deduction of withholding tax is shown gross of taxation, with the taxation consequences shown within the taxation charge.

Special dividends are treated as either revenue or capital depending on the facts of each particular case.

All other revenue is recognised on an accruals basis.

(c) Treatment of expenses All expenses (other than those relating to the purchase and sale of investments and Stamp Duty Reserve Tax) are charged against revenue on an accruals basis.

(d) Distribution Policy The policy is to distribute all available revenue, after deduction of those expenses which are chargeable in calculating the distribution. In order to conduct a controlled dividend flow, interim distributions will be at the Manager’s discretion, up to a maximum of the distributable revenue for the period. All remaining revenue is distributed in accordance with the COLL.

The Manager’s periodic fee is taken to capital for the purpose of calculating the distribution.

The ordinary element of stock dividends is treated as revenue and forms part of the distribution, which is in accordance with the COLL. In the case of an enhanced stock dividend, the value of the enhancement is treated as capital and does not form part of the distribution.

Distributions which have remained unclaimed by Unitholders for over six years are credited to the capital property of the Fund.

15

Notes to the Financial Statements continued (e) Basis of valuation of investments

All investments are valued at their fair value as at 12 noon on 24 January 2012, being the last working day of the accounting period. The fair value for non-derivative securities is the bid market price, excluding any accrued interest and the fair value for derivative instruments is the cost of closing out the contract at the balance sheet date.

Where values cannot be readily determined, the securities are valued at the Manager’s best assessment of their fair value.

(f) Taxation Provision is made for taxation at current rates on the excess of investment revenue expenses, with relief for overseas taxation taken where appropriate.

Deferred tax is provided for on all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, other than those differences that are regarded as permanent. Any liability to deferred tax is provided for at the average rate of tax expected to apply. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted to reflect the time value of money.

(g) Exchange rates Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of

exchange ruling on the date of the transaction. Where applicable, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at 12 noon on 24 January 2012, being the last working day of the accounting period.

Overseas withholding tax 76 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Current tax [note 5(b)] 76

Deferred taxation [note 5(c)] — -------------------------------------------------------------------- Total taxation 76 --------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) Factors affecting taxation charge for the period The current tax charge excludes capital gains and losses for the

reason that Authorised Unit Trusts are not subject to Corporation Tax on these items. Current tax differs from taxation assessed on net revenue before taxation as follows:

Net revenue before taxation 589,340 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Net revenue before taxation multiplied by the applicable rate of UK Corporation Tax 20% (2011: 20%) 117,868

Effects of:

Overseas withholding tax 76

Revenue not subject to taxation (125,005)

Set-up costs 3,669

Excess management expenses not utilised 3,468 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Current tax 76 --------------------------------------------------------------------

(c) Provision for deferred tax There is no deferred tax provision in the current period. At the period end there is a potential deferred tax asset of £3,468 due to surplus management expenses. It is unlikely the Fund will generate sufficient taxable profits in the future to utilise these amounts and therefore no deferred tax asset has been recognised.

its objective, the Fund holds financial instruments which expose it to various types of risk. The main risks, and the Manager’s policy for managing these risks, which were applied consistently throughout the current period, are set out below.

(a) Credit and liquidity risk Credit risk is the risk of suffering loss due to another party not

meeting its financial obligations. The primary source of this risk to the Fund is for trade counterparties to fail to meet their transaction commitments. This risk is managed by appraising the credit profile of financial instruments and trade counterparties.

Liquidity risk relates to the capacity to meet liabilities. The primary source of this risk to the Fund is the liability to Unitholders for any cancellation of units. This risk is minimised by holding cash and readily realisable securities and via access to overdraft facilities.

(b) Market risk Market risk arises mainly from uncertainty about future prices. The primary source of this risk to the Fund is the potential movement in the value of financial instruments held as a result of price fluctuations. The Manager adheres to the investment guidelines and borrowing powers established in the Trust Deed, Prospectus and the COLL. In this way, the Manager monitors and controls the exposure to risk from any type of security, sector or issuer.

The Fund may also use derivative instruments to mitigate risk and reduce costs. These instruments are not utilised for speculative purposes. Derivative instruments were not utilised during the current period.

Notes to the Financial Statements continued (c) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk is the risk of movements in the value of

overseas financial instruments as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates.

At the balance sheet date the Fund had no exposure to currencies other than Sterling.

(d) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk of movements in the value of financial

instruments as a result of fluctuations in interest rates. The Fund’s only interest bearing financial instruments were its bank balances and overdraft facilities as disclosed in note 8. Cash is deposited, and overdraft facilities utilised, on normal commercial terms and earn or bear interest based on LIBOR.

(e) Derivative risk — Sensitivity analysis Derivative risk arises from uncertainty about future market

movements. This risk is managed by the policies shown within Market risk.

At the balance sheet date the Fund had no exposure to derivatives.

(f) Fair value The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount for which it

could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. There is no significant difference between the value of the financial assets and liabilities, as shown in the financial statements, and their fair value.
