None of the incumbent directors and officers are related to each other within the fourth civil degree either by affinity or consanguinity. The Fund has no significant employees, or persons other than the above-named directors and officers who are expected to make a significant contribution to the business of the Fund. E. Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers The directors and executive officers of the Fund have not received any form of compensation from inception up to present. Their contributed efforts to the Fund are on voluntary basis only. Also, there is no per diem, bonus, profit sharing or other compensation plan, pension or retirement plan, contract or arrangement in which any director or executive officer of the Fund will participate. F. Effects of Government Regulation With the lowering of the threshold amount of covered transactions under the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2001 (Republic Act No. 9160) from P4,000,000.00 to P500,000.00, the investing public would be wary of attempting to invest an amount that would place their investment in such a position that would entail a report to the AMLA Council. Moreover, investors appear to consider the reportorial provision of the Anti-Money Laundering Act as an invasion of their secrecy of deposit, more so if the source of such investment is legitimate. Hence, with the AMLA as a discouraging factor, the Fund expects limited capital investment by shareholders in the near future. G. Properties Operations are conducted within the premises of the fund manager. All facilities are either owned or provided by the fund manager. Being a fund, the Fund has neither properties under its fixed assets accounts nor hire employees for its operation. H.

Of the 23 funds, four (4) are equity funds, seven (7) are balanced funds, ten (10) are bond funds, one (1) is a money market fund, and one (1) is an index fund. Asset-wise, the industry is dominated by bond funds, which account for 93.7% of total funds. The only competitor of the Fund is the Philippine Index Fund. The Fund is expected to perform similar to its competitor since both are index funds and follow the same strategy.

B. Top 5 Key Indicators The Fund monitors the following indicators that affect its profitability: 1. Philippine Composite Index (Phisix) - Phisix is the benchmark used to track the

Philippine stock market as an aggregate. The direction of the Phisix normally dictates the movement of equity fund, such as PEFI, since they invest primarily on Philippine equities.

2. Gross National Produce (GNP) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Growth. - The

GNP and GDP growth usually mirrors the economic cycle. A positive outlook on the economy would be bullish for stocks and PEFI. A negative forecast, on the other hand, would be bearish for stocks and PEFI.

3. Interest Rates. - The level of interest rates is also a major factor in stock market

activity. A low interest rate environment, which is indicative if liquidity in the market, is healthy for stocks. A high interest rate level results in the reverse.

4. Price to Earnings Ratio (P/E Ratio) of the Market. - The P/E Ratio and other

valuation ratios are used to determine if companies are undervalued or not with respect to their earnings power. A low P/E Ratio in a stock is usually a signal that the stock is worth buying for PEFI. At the same time, low P/E Ratio for the market, as a whole, is a signal that it is worth increasing the equity weighing of PEFI vis a vis its holdings in cash.

5. Foreign Buying and Selling Activity. - Foreign trading activity is tracked daily by

the Philippine Stock Exchange. Consistent net buying by foreign investors is positive for the market and PEFI, as well.

C. Financial Condition Interim Period as of 30 September 2004 vs. CY 2003 Income generated by Philequity PSE Index Fund, Inc. is principally from gains on sale of securities comprising the Philippine Index (PHISIX). However, the fund has not actively traded in the PHISIX. Revenues slightly increased by P0.094 Million or 2.3% of revenues generated for the same period in 2003, from P0.408 Million in CY 2003 to P0.0502 Million in 2004. The income derived was from dividends and interest. Total expenses is 10.25% and 41.15% of gross income for CY 2004 and 2003, respectively. As the fund manager of Philequity PSE Index Fund, Inc., Philequity Management, Inc., Philequity Management, Inc. has not charged any management fees since there has been no additions to the capital stock since its inception in February 1999.

19

Total Assets increased by P3.83 Million or 19.7% from P19.44 Million in interim period of 2003 to P25.61 Million for the same period in 2004. This is primarily the result of the recovery in market value of securities. Cash & Cash Equivalents increased from P1.96 Million in 31 December 2004 to P2.43 Million in 30 September 2004, or an increase of 23.87%. This is due to the dividend income as well as interest income. Investments in listed securities increased by as much as P4.08 Million mainly because of the increase in market prices used in the valuation of the securities. Accrued expenses includes audit fee of SGV & Co. which was settled in 2004. CY 2003 vs. 2002 Income generated by the Fund is principally from gains on sale of securities comprising the Phisix. However, the fund has not actively traded in the Phisix. Revenues slightly increased by P0.010 Million, or 2% increase, from P0.508 Million in CY 2002 to P0.518 in CY 2003. The income derived was from dividends and interest. Total expenses is 24.4% and 28.4% of gross income for CY 2003 and 2002, respectively. The fund manager, PEMI, has not charged any management fees since there has been no additions to the capital stock since its inception in February 1999. Total assets increased by P5.37 Million or 34.08% in CY 2003. This is primarily the result of the recovery in market value of securities. Total accrued expenses decreased by 50% or P0.040 Million in CY 2003 representing the audit fee settled during the year. CY 2002 vs. 2001 Total revenues decreased by P0.124 Million or 20% in CY 2002 in comparison with CY 2001. This can be attributed to the decrease in interest income in 2002 since investment was shifted from short-term placements to equities comprising the Phisix. Total expenses decreased by P2.796 Million or 95.09% from P2.94 Million in CY 2001 to P0.144 Million in CY 2002 due to the write-off of pre-operating and organization costs in 2001 following Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 38 (SFAS 38). There was no sale of capital stock, thus, PEMI did not initiate any charges for management fee. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND INVESTMENT POLICIES The Fund is a growth-oriented fund. The objective of the Fund is to track and closely match the performance of the Phisix, the main barometer of the stock market, by buying and selling proportionate number of shares of the thirty three (33) stocks that compose the Phisix Index.

20

The Phisix is an index composed of stocks representative of the Commercial-Industrial Sector, Property Sector, Mining Sector, and Oil Sector of the Exchange. An index, on the other hand, is a compilation of statistical data from a basket of equities that represents the entire market of equities. An index may be price-weighted such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, or capitalization-weighted such as the Phisix. In a capitalization-weighted index such as the Phisix, the component securities are accorded relative importance based on their market capitalization, or the product of the total number of securities issued and subscribed multiplied by the price per share. Accordingly, each component equity's influence on the value of the Phisix is directly proportionate to its market capitalization. The investments of the Fund will consist solely of shares of stock of companies which comprise the Phisix ("Index stocks"). Inasmuch as immediately investing the entire Fund, or large amounts of investments, at any one time in the Index stocks may result in an artificial increase in stock prices, a portion of the Fund shall also be invested in short-term debt securities and fixed-income securities until such time that the entire Fund can be properly allocated among all the Index stocks. The percentage of the Fund which will be invested in any one company and the percentage of voting securities of any one company which the Fund may acquire shall be determined by size of the Fund, the composition of the Phisix, and the proportion that the market capitalization of the company bears to the aggregate market capitalization of the Index stocks. In general, the larger the size of the Fund, the greater the percentage which may be invested in any one company. However, the Fund shall not invest more than ten percent (10%) of its assets in any one investee company and shall not acquire more than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding securities of any one company. The Fund shall not acquire more than ten percent (10%) outstanding securities of any one company/debt instrument issuer. For liquidity purposes, the Fund shall invest at least ten percent (10%) of its funds in liquid/semi-liquid assets, such as:

(a) Treasury notes or bills, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas ("BSP") Certificates of Indebtedness which are short-term, and other government securities or bonds and such other evidences of indebtedness or obligations, the servicing and repayment of which are fully guaranteed by the Republic of the Philippines.

(b) Savings or time deposits with government-owned banks or commercial banks,

provided that in no case shall any such savings or time deposit account be accepted or allowed under a "bearer", numbered account or other similar arrangement.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS The investments of the Fund shall be subject to the following restrictions:

21

1. Unless the applicable Philippine laws, rules, regulations, and orders of the Securities

and Exchange Commission ("SEC") provide otherwise, the Fund shall not sell securities short nor invest in any of the following:

(a) margin purchase of securities (investments in partly paid shares are excluded) (b) commodity futures contract (c) precious metals (d) unlimited liability investments

2. The Fund shall not incur any further debt or borrowing unless at the time of its

incurrence or immediately thereafter there is a net asset coverage of at least three hundred percent (300%) for all its borrowing, or such net asset coverage as the applicable Philippine laws and regulations may prescribe. In the event that such asset coverage shall at any time fall below 300% or the coverage required by law, the Fund shall within three (3) days after, or such period as the applicable Philippine laws and regulations may require, reduce the amount of borrowings to an extent that the net asset coverage shall be at least 300% or the coverage required by law.

3. Unless permitted by applicable Philippine laws, rules or regulations, the Fund shall

not participate in an underwriting or selling group in connection with the public distribution of securities, except its own capital stock.

4. The Fund shall not invest in real estate properties and developments. 5. The Fund shall not invest in any company for the purposes of exercising control or

management. 6. The Fund shall not issue or sell senior securities of which it is the issuer. 7. The Fund shall not extend loans to individuals. Loans or credit extensions to

corporations shall be limited to commercial papers and bonds registered with the SEC, or subject of a grant of exemption therefrom, and which have been preapproved by the Board of Directors.

8. The Fund shall not invest in the securities of other investment companies. 9. The Fund shall not purchase from or sell to any of its officers or directors, or to any of

the officers or directors of its investment adviser/s, manager or distributor/s or firm/s of which any of them are members, any security other than the capital stock of the Fund.

10. The total operational expenses of the Fund shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of its

total investment fund, total net worth or total net asset value as shown in the previous year's audited financial statements, or such other limitations as may be prescribed by the applicable Philippine laws or regulations.

22

11. The Fund shall not change its investment objectives without prior approval of the

majority of its stockholders. RISK FACTORS The Fund intends to invest in an equity-based portfolio designed to match the PSE Composite Index ("Phisix" or "Index"). As with any investment, the Fund’s past performance is no guarantee of its future success. Over the long-term, however, the success of failure to profit in the fund will depend on the following: (i) the Fund’s sales charges, fees and expenses; and (ii) the Fund’s risks and volatility. Various risk factors can affect the market value of the assets of the Fund and can cause a fluctuation of the Fund's net asset value. The Fund, however, adopts steps to minimize, if not eliminate, the effect of these risks. The major risks facing the Fund are as follows: 1. Systematic risk - the risk related to the variability in price of the stock market as a

whole. There is no way to address this risk since the Fund is an index fund, it naturally follow the variability of the stock market as a whole.

2. Unsystematic risk (company-specific) - the risk related to the variability in a stock

price due to factors associated with the company. The Fund, being an index fund, is already properly diversified.

3. Liquidity risk - the risk that an investment may not find a ready buyer. This is

negligible since the Fund only invests in listed equities. The general political and economic situations of the country also influence the net asset value of the Fund. As an illustration, when the country's general political and economic situations are perceived to be in turmoil, the stock market, in general, and the stocks comprising the PSE composite index, in particular, experience lack of trading interest that will consequently result in thin volume trading and narrow price volatility. Such situations generally will trigger a downward momentum for both the stock prices and trading volumes until the political and economic condition normalize. As a consequence, these instances can result to the redemption prices of redeemed shares being less than the prices at which the shares were originally purchased. Investors who redeem their shares during this time may not recover the full cost of their investment. However, as the purpose of the Fund is to match the Index, the average investor is given an opportunity to participate in the equities market. Moreover, investors generally should expect the return on the Fund to be less than the return on the Phisix as a result of the payment of loads, fees, charges and expenses and the Fund's holding of other assets for liquidity purposes and to satisfy redemption requests.

23

USE OF PROCEEDS The proceeds from the sale of the securities shall be held by the custodian bank. It shall be invested and reinvested by the Fund in stocks comprising the Phisix. The Fund shall be guided by the investment policies and restrictions on its investments under the topics Investment Objective and Investment Policies and Investment Restrictions. Inasmuch as immediately investing the entire Fund, or large amounts of investments, at any one time in the Index stocks may result in an artificial increase in stock prices, a portion of the Fund shall also be invested in short-term debt securities and fixed-income securities until such time that the entire Fund can be properly allocated among all the Index stocks. As of the filing of this Amended Prospectus, total proceeds from the issuance of the shares of stock of the Fund is P25,000,000.00 which were invested in various securities listed with the Philippine Stock Exchange.

Manner and Method of Redemption Upon the presentation to PEMI of the securities for redemption, the holder of the shares of the Fund is entitled to receive by way of redemption approximately his proportionate share of the Fund's current net assets or the cash equivalent thereof, i.e. the net current asset value per share, subject to existing laws and the By-Laws of the Fund. Any request for redemption should always be accompanied by duly endorsed stock certificates and custodian receipt/s, if they have been issued. The redemption proceeds shall be paid within seven (7) banking days from receipt of the duly accomplished redemption application. C.

E. Special Considerations No redemption will be allowed should any of the following circumstances exist:

27

1. The Philippine Stock Exchange is closed for reasons other than the customary weekend or holiday closings;

2. Trading at the Philippine Stock Exchange is suspended or restricted; 3. There exists an emergency as a result of which disposal by the Fund of securities

owned by it is not reasonably practicable, or the computation or determination of the net asset value is not practicable;

4. The Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, permits suspension of the right

of redemption for the protection of the Fund's stockholders; or 5. Such other circumstance as the applicable Philippine laws or regulations may allow. F. Applicable Taxes Under the National Internal Revenue Code of 1997 ("NIRC"), gains realized by the investor upon redemption of shares of stock in a mutual fund company are excluded from the computation of a taxpayer's gross income and are thus exempt from taxation. However, a final tax on the amount of cash and/or property dividends received by an individual from a mutual fund company are taxable, beginning January 1, 2000, at the rate of 10% for Filipino citizens and resident aliens, and 20% for non-resident aliens. On the other hand, cash and/or property dividends received by corporations are not subject to tax, with the exception of dividends received by non-resident foreign corporations which, in general, shall be taxed at the rate of 15% of the amount of dividends received. COMPUTATION OF NET ASSET VALUE The net asset value of each share of the capital stock of the Fund, as of the close of business of any day, shall be the quotient obtained by dividing the value, as of such closing date, of the assets of the Fund less the liabilities (exclusive of capital stock and surplus) by the total number of shares of capital stock outstanding at such close, all determined and computed as follows: (a) The assets of the Fund shall be deemed to include (i) all cash on hand, deposit in a bank, (ii) all bills and notes and accounts receivable, (iii) all shares of stock and subscription rights and other securities owned or contracted for by the Fund, other than its own capital stock, (iv) all stock and cash dividends and cash distributions to be received by the Fund and not yet received by it but declared to stockholders of record on a date on or before the date as of which the net asset value is being determined, (v) all interests accrued on any interest bearing securities owned by the Fund, (vi) all other property of every kind and nature including prepaid expenses. In determining the value of the assets of the Fund for the purpose of obtaining the net asset value for acquisition, purchase, repurchase or redemption by the Fund of shares of its capital

28

stock from its stockholders, each security listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange shall be valued on the basis of the average closing price thereon on the business day on which such net asset value for sale and redemption purposes is to be calculated. If there be no transaction on particular issue listed, then the value to be used is that of the previous day or the last day that a transaction was closed. As used herein "business day" shall mean a day on which the Philippine Stock Exchange is open for trading in securities and each business day will be at the hour and minute when such Exchange closes for the trading of securities for the day. All other assets of the Fund, including real estate, prepaid and accrued expenses and dividends receivable shall be valued by such standard and acceptable accounting methods as the Board of Directors and its auditor shall deem to reflect their fair market value. (b) The liabilities of the Fund shall be deemed to include (i) all bills and notes and accounts payable, (ii) all administrative expenses payable and/or accrued (including management fees), (iii) all contractual obligations for the payment of money or property, including the amount of any unpaid dividend declared upon the Fund's stock and payable to stockholders of record on or before the day as of which the value of the Fund's stock is being determined, (iv) all reserves authorized or approved by the Board of Directors for taxes or contingencies, and (v) all other liabilities of the Fund of whatsoever kind and nature except liabilities represented by the outstanding capital stock and surplus of the Fund. The NAV per share shall consistently be computed in accordance with the foregoing formula. Any change of the computation or valuation shall be subject to the approval of the Commission. BENEFITS TO THE INVESTOR A. Professional Management and Supervision Investing in the Fund affords numerous small investors services which would normally be accessible only to institutional investors and individuals with substantial resources. The Investor is given an opportunity to become part of a professionally managed portfolio of securities. The Investment Manager takes on the task of analyzing the various securities and issues available in the market, and determining the daily market capitalization of each Index stock and the proportion it bears to the aggregate market capitalization of the Phisix. Accordingly, the Investment Manager, who has the expertise, the time and the facilities to undertake such activities, can buy and sell the proportionate number of stocks in order to maintain a portfolio that parallels the composition of the Phisix. B. Diversification and Matching the Phisix An Investor in the Fund achieves instant diversification at a minimal investment, especially as the Fund's assets shall be proportionately allocated among all Index stocks. As the objective of the Fund is to match the performance of the PSE Composite Index, the Investor is given an opportunity to participate in the equities market.

29

C. Liquidity A shareholder of the Fund may at any time, convert his proportionate share of the Fund's current net assets into its cash equivalent (i.e. the NAV per share less redemption charges, if any). There is no need for the shareholder to find a buyer as the Fund is always ready to redeem or buy back its shares, provided that the shareholder submits all pertinent requirements as set forth in the section Redemption of Shares.
