Macau Property Opportunities Fund Limited

("MPO" or the "Company")

Statement re Non-Mainstream Pooled Investments

The Board of Macau Property Opportunities Fund Limited ("MPO" or "Company") notes the changes to the FCA rules relating to the restrictions on the retail distribution of unregulated collective investments schemes and close substitutes which came into effect on 1 January 2014.

Following the receipt of legal advice, the Board confirms that it has conducted the Company's affairs in such a manner that the Company would have qualified for approval as an investment trust if it were resident in the United Kingdom, and that it is the Board's intention that the Company will continue to conduct its affairs in such a manner. Thus, the Company is, and the Board expects it will continue to be, outside the scope of the new restrictions and IFAs should therefore be able to recommend ordinary shares in the Company to retail investors in accordance with the FCA's rules relating to non-mainstream investment products.
