14. The price of redemption of the class “A” shares or fractional shares shall be fixed by the board of directors twice a year, on dates six months apart, on the basis of the value of the Fund as established by experts under the responsibility of independent chartered accountants according to generally accepted accounting principles and adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the fair value of investments in enterprises the Fund controls, in joint ventures and in enterprises on which it has significant influence or in which it holds variable interests. The board of directors may also fix the price of redemption at any other time in the year, on the basis of an internal valuation which, in each case, must be the subject of a special report of independent chartered accountants confirming continued adherence to the principles and methods used to value the Fund.
The Fund may, however, accept the offer of a shareholder to receive the last price of redemption so determined rather than the subsequent one. The redemption shall be made within a reasonable time after the date of the request therefor.
However, in the case described in paragraph 4 of section 11, the Fund is bound to redeem the share or fractional share at the price at which it was acquired from the Fund and to make the payment not later than 30 days after the date of receipt of the request.
