I. Preliminary statement This Guidance Notice presents the main features of the notification procedure in accordance with section 320 of the KAGB and explains the prerequisites for marketing units and shares of EU AIFs or foreign AIFs to retail investors in the Federal Republic of Germany. The marketing of units or shares of EU AIFs or foreign AIFs to retail investors in the Federal Republic of Germany is subject to the provisions of the KAGB. In accordance with section 320 (1) sentence 1 of the KAGB1 , the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht – BaFin) must be notified of any intention to market such units and shares. BaFin will check within 20 working days whether the required information and documentation are complete, section 320 (2) in conjunction with section 316 (2) sentences 1 and 2. If the notification is complete upon receipt, the alternative investment fund manager (hereinafter AIFM) will receive a corresponding confirmation by e-mail. If the notification is incomplete, BaFin will request within 20 working days that the missing information and documentation is submitted as a supplementary notification in accordance with section 320 (2) in conjunction with section 316 (2) sentence 2. The supplementary notification must be submitted to BaFin within six months of the notification being filed or of the last supplementary notification, failing which BaFin is precluded from providing confirmation that marketing may begin (section 320 (2) in conjunction with section 316 (2) sentence 4 of the KAGB). This ends the notification procedure and marketing may not be commenced. A new notification procedure can be started at any time (section 320 (2) in conjunction with section 316 (2) sentence 6). In the case of notifications by EU AIFMs, BaFin will inform the notifier within three months of receipt of the complete notification file in accordance with section 320 (2) no. 1 in conjunction with section 316 (3) sentence 1 whether marketing of the AIF referred to in the notification letter can be commenced in the Federal Republic of Germany. If the notification is made by a foreign AIFM, the period will be six months, section 320 (2) no. 2 in conjunction with section 316 (3) sentence 1. If the foreign AIFM has already submitted notification of an AIF to be marketed to retail investors in the Federal Republic of Germany in accordance with section 320 (1) sentence 1 and the notifying foreign AIFM warrants in the notification letter that there have been no changes in relation to the requirements of section 317 (1) sentence 1 nos. 1 and 3 since the last notification of the same type or update, then the above-mentioned period in accordance with section 320 (3) sentence 2 will be only three months. BaFin can prohibit the commencement of marketing within the three- or six-month period referred to in section 320 (2) in conjunction with section 316 (3) if the AIFM or the management of the notified AIF by the AIFM of the AIF infringes the provisions of the KAGB. If BaFin communicates objections to this effect within the three- or six-month period, the period is interrupted and recommences upon submission of the amended information and documentation, section 320 (2) in conjunction with section 316 (3) sentence 3. If the objections 1 References in the following to sections only without the name of a specific act refer to the KAGB

are resolved and BaFin notifies the AIFM of this, marketing of the notified AIF can be commenced in the Federal Republic of Germany from the date of the corresponding notification, section 320 (2) in conjunction with section 316 (3) sentence 4. Information on data processing and an explanation of your rights regarding the assessment of directors, holders of major participating interests or representatives under the KAGB can be found on the BaFin website by using the following link: https://www.bafin.de/ref/19591716 This Guidance Notice may be subject to amendments and additions – including but not limited to those made at short notice.

1. General information on the notification procedure This section of the Guidance Notice presents the information and documentation that are generally required for notifications of the intention to market units or shares of EU AIFs or foreign AIFs to retail investors in accordance with section 320. This does not prevent the AIFM from providing or BaFin from requesting further information and documentation.
2. Notification letter The notification must clearly state the full name of the sender and their function at the AIFM. The notification must be signed at the end in the name of the AIF management company by its authorised representatives stating the place and date of execution, with the names of the undersigned to be repeated in typescript. If the notification is not made by the AIFM, but by an appointed representative, a certificate of authorisation for the notifier must be submitted authorising the latter to notify BaFin of the intention to commence marketing and to furnish and receive all necessary declarations required in connection with this. It must be stated whether and, if applicable, to what extent the appointed representative, whose name and function must be indicated (at least one natural person), is empowered to issue affirmations on behalf of the AIFM. In particular, information is required on whether the appointed representative is authorised to perform self-certification. The certificate of authorisation must be signed by the manager(s) authorised to represent the company and must indicate the names and functions of the signatories.
3. Submission of notification/documents/fee With effect from 01 April 2023, the notification can be submitted exclusively electronically by encrypted e-mail or by downloading it via BaFin’s reporting and publishing platform (Melde￾und Veröffentlichungsplattform – MVP-Portal) (section 7b (1) and 2 of the KAGB). Individual items of information must be labelled in line with the numbering and associated headings contained in this Guidance Notice. If individual items are not relevant, they must nevertheless be included in the notification and marked as “not applicable”. The same applies

where this Guidance Notice states that individual items of information are not required in specific cases. In case of doubt, a brief justification for the relevant points must be included. The documents to be submitted must be labelled in the top-right corner with the number of the Guidance Notice. If the information given in relation to one point is the same as the information required for another point, a corresponding reference can be made. This also applies to the documents to be included. In the case of self-managed AIFs, the following information and documentation required with respect to the AIFM relate to the AIF itself with the necessary modifications. The obligations imposed by the Guidance Notice or the Code also apply to the AIF itself in the absence of an external AIFM. The most up-to-date versions of the documents must be submitted in each case. Foreign language documents must be submitted together with a German translation, section 320 (1) sentences 2 and 3. To the extent that foreign statutory provisions are referred to in the documents to be submitted, these must be submitted upon request. In the fund rules, the articles of association, or the partnership agreement that must be included together with the notification or that are contained in the prospectus, and in the prospectus in German, the information referred to under B. must be identified by making corresponding references to the following numbers and letters in the margin of the individual pages. Where a large number of key information documents in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 are submitted together, please provide a better overview by sorting them alphabetically by the names of the investment compartments/unit classes concerned. Note: As from 01 January 2023, Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 requires a key information document to be drawn up for funds whose units are marketed to retail investors or semi-professional investors. This replaces the previous requirement to prepare key investor information. Notifications in accordance with section 320 of the KAGB can be submitted via the MVP-Portal. This requires the notifier to have previously registered. Additional information is available under the following link: https://portal.mvp.bafin.de/MvpPortalWeb/app/login.html However, you can also still use encrypted e-mails to submit notifications to BaFin. Paper-based submission of notifications or other documents will no longer be permitted from 01.04.2023. As from 01 April 2023, notifications and other documents may no longer be submitted as hard copies. Notifications that are submitted electronically by e-mail must be sent in encrypted form to the secureWA5@bafin.de mailbox. Please note the following when submitting items electronically:

Notes for submitting notifications by e-mail/download: a) E-mail notifications must be encrypted. BaFin’s e-mail encryption programme (SEPPmail) uses certificates to ensure that e-mails are encrypted and decrypted. All BaFin’s public keys can be accessed in a directory available on the following webpage: https://secmail.bafin.de/web.app. Alternatively, you can request the responsible BaFin administrator’s certificate by sending an e-mail with the hashtag #getcertificate to their e-mail. b) E-mails including all attachments may not exceed 20 MB in size; attachments may be packed in a zip file. If necessary, the contents must be split up across multiple e-mails; this must be indicated in the subject line (see e)). It is recommended that you give advance warning by e-mail before submitting large volumes of data. Equally, the technical arrangements for downloading information or documents relating to notifications should be clarified. Additional information on electronic transfers and e-mail transmission can be submitted in advance to the mailbox given above or clarified with the administrator responsible. c) E-mails that exceed the data volume given above will not be delivered to BaFin even if the sender receives a confirmation of dispatch suggesting the contrary. BaFin will not be made aware of such e-mails and cannot process them. The sender shall be responsible for all associated consequences. d) The permissible file formats for attachments/downloads are .pdf, .doc and .docx. e) The subject line for the e-mail must include the following:

• the eight-digit BaFin ID (70XXXXXX);
• the name of the AIFM;
• a sequential number if the notification is transmitted using multiple e-mails (see b) above). A fee must be paid to submit a notification. In the case of an umbrella scheme, each investment compartment is subject to the notification requirement and fee obligation. If the documents to be included with the individual notifications are identical, they need only be submitted with one notification; in other respects, reference must be made to the notification with which the relevant document is included. If reference is made to documents that were submitted in an earlier notification procedure, the relevant investment fund must be identified by name. The ability to make such references depends on the documents being up to date. If the marketing of units of several AIFs or investment compartments is to be notified, a separate notification must be made for each AIF and a separate fee must be paid for each. The fee is EUR 1,641.00 per AIF/investment compartment. The legal basis for the charging of fees results from section 1 no. 18 in conjunction with section 2(1) of the Special Fee Ordinance of the Federal Ministry of Finance in respect of Financial Services Fees Regulation - FinDAGebV and No. 15.1.9.4, 1st indent of the list of fees in this regulation.

The fee must be transferred stating the following reference “BaFin, … (name of AIF to which the notification relates) AnzGeb.” to the following account: Recipient: Bundeskasse Deutsche Bundesbank, Saarbrücken branch IBAN: DE 81 5900 0000 0059 0010 20 BIC code: MARK DEF 1590 In each case, the full name of the AIF must be provided as far as technically possible, e.g. to the extent that the number of characters provided for the payment reference on the transfer form allows this. When remitting payment, please ensure that the fee is paid in full and that no bank or other charges are deducted. 4. Self-certification In the case of the most recent versions of the documents submitted to or approved by the home supervisor (prospectus and fund rules, articles of association, or partnership agreement) that must be included with the notification of intention to commence marketing, an affirmation by the manager(s) of the AIFM authorised to represent the company, or by an authorised third party, stating that the documents are the most up-to-date versions and have been submitted to or approved by the supervisory authority in the AIFM’s country of domicile, will be accepted.2 The name and function of the person signatory of this affirmation must be indicated. If the self-certification is not performed by the manager(s) of the AIFM authorised to represent the company, a list of authorised signatories must be provided which must contain the names, functions and specimen signatures of the authorised signatories. Additionally, information must be provided on the conditions subject to which a legally binding declaration of intent on behalf of the AIFM can be assumed (e.g. requirement that two people sign; unless information to the contrary is provided, the validity of the list of authorised signatories also extends to future notification procedures until it is revoked or replaced). The list of authorised signatories must be signed by the manager(s) of the AIFM authorised to represent the company, and the name and function of the signatory provided. 2 It should be noted that this does not indicate an option. The content of the affirmation depends on whether the documents must be approved by the supervisory authority in the country of domicile or merely submitted to it; the affirmation should be affixed to the relevant document. If the affirmation is made in a language other than German, a German translation must be included.

5. Updating documents and amendment notices BaFin must be informed of amendments to the information provided in the notification and to the documents supplied. The amended documents must be included. BaFin must be notified of planned amendments at least 20 working days before they are implemented and of unplanned amendments immediately after they have occurred. The amendment notice shall be communicated in the same way as the notification. If the planned amendment infringes the provisions of the KAGB, BaFin will notify the AIFM that it may not implement the amendment. Your attention is drawn to section 320 (4) sentences 2 and 3 in conjunction with section 316 (4) sentence 4 and section 316 (5).
6. De-notification of marketing of units or shares of AIFs De-notification of the marketing of units or shares of an AIF that is marketed in accordance with section 320 shall be based on section 295a. The de-notification shall be communicated in the same form as the notification. The marketing of AIFs or investment compartments (in the case of an umbrella scheme) that have already been authorised for marketing can be de-notified with effect from a certain date (de-notification date) subject to the following conditions: The de-notification of marketing shall be communicated to BaFin in accordance with section 295a (4) and compliance with the conditions set out in section 295a (1) shall be demonstrated in this notification. Compliance with the conditions set out in section 295a (1) sentence 3 no. 1 shall be demonstrated by stating in the notification how (directly or via what financial intermediaries, where appropriate) and as from what date the blanket offer in German was publicly available for at least 30 working days and was addressed individually to those investors whose identity was known. A copy of the blanket offer shall be submitted together with the notification. “Publicly available” shall be deemed in particular to include publication of the blanket offer in a business or daily newspaper with a sufficiently large circulation or in the electronic information media specified in the prospectus plus, if appropriate, additionally on the financial intermediary’s website. The notification must clearly show that the information in accordance with section 295a (1) sentence 3 no. 1 and no. 2 contains an unambiguous description of the consequences for investors if they do not accept the blanket offer; this documentation obligation shall not apply in the case of closed-ended AIFs or of AIFs that are regulated under Regulation (EU) 2015/760. Compliance with the conditions set out in section 295a (1) sentence 3 no. 2 shall be demonstrated by stating in the notification the generally available medium (including electronic means) customarily used for marketing AIFs and suitable for typical AIF investors that was used to communicate the intention to de-notify marketing in German, and the date of such communication. “Generally available” shall be deemed in particular to include publication of the intention to de-notify marketing in a business or daily newspaper with a

sufficiently large circulation or in the electronic information media specified in the prospectus plus, if appropriate, additionally on the financial intermediary’s website. Compliance with the condition set out in section 295a (1) sentence 3 no. 3 can be demonstrated by the AIFM making a binding self-declaration in the notification letter that any new or additional direct or indirect offer or placement of the units or shares of the AIF or investment compartment concerned shall be terminated at the latest on the de-notification date. The AIFM may no longer market the units or shares concerned as of the de-notification date. The AIFM may not engage in premarketing of the AIF or investment compartment that is affected by the de-notification of marketing, or of comparable investment strategies or investment concepts, for a period of 36 months as from the de-notification date. Your attention is drawn to the prohibition on marketing in accordance with section 314 (1) no. 11 and section 314 (2) in conjunction with section 295a (2) and (4). Section 295b (2) requires the obligations specified therein to update documents and to provide information to the remaining investors do not end with the de-notification of marketing in the Federal Republic of Germany. In particular, section 320 (4) shall continue to apply to amendment notices as from the date of de-notification for as long as there are still investors in Germany. This being the case, BaFin must be informed by way of an amendment notice as soon as there are no longer any investors residing and/or domiciled in the Federal Republic of Germany who are invested in the AIF. 7. Special provisions in the case of umbrella schemes Simultaneous existence of investment compartments authorised for marketing and not authorised for marketing Where in the case of umbrella schemes with at least one investment compartment whose units or shares are permitted to be marketed within the jurisdiction of the KAGB, sales documentation is used that also contains information about other investment compartments that are not permitted to be marketed within the jurisdiction of this Code, or that are only permitted to be marketed to another type of investor, the sales documentation must include a prominent statement in prominent print in each case that the units or shares of the additional investment compartments are not permitted to be marketed within the jurisdiction of the KAGB or, if they are permitted to be marketed to individual types of investor, the type of investor within the meaning of section 1 (19) nos. 31 to 33 to which they are not permitted to be marketed; such additional investment compartments must be identified by name. These statements must be included in the documents intended for investors in Germany. 7.1 De-notification of marketing of investment compartments The de-notification of the marketing of investment compartments is also based on section 295a (1) and (4) of the KAGB and the principles outlined above.

When de-notifying marketing of investment compartments under an umbrella scheme, it should be noted that this marketing waiver for an investment compartment generally gives rise to the need to submit an amendment notice. This is because section 320 (4) sentence 1 in conjunction with section 316 (4) sentences 1 to 3 require amended information and documents to be submitted to BaFin. This is the case in particular where the marketing of other investment compartments of the umbrella fund is still authorised in Germany. BaFin must be informed of the amendment notice for a planned amendment (in this case the end of marketing of an investment compartment with respect to the other investment compartments that are still being marketed) in accordance with the requirements above at least 20 working days before the planned change is implemented, and the updated documents must be attached. The blanket offer that is a precondition for the de-notification of an investment compartment must be published at least 30 working days before the end of marketing in accordance with the requirements above. The timing of the two amendments – the de-notification and the amendment of the documents for the investment compartments that have not been de￾notified – is thus closely linked. A fee is charged for the discontinuation of marketing of an investment compartment by way of de-notification. This fee amounts to EUR 284.00 per investment compartment. The fee is based on the schedule of fees mentioned above in connection with the notification letter. The fee must also be remitted to the account given above in connection with the notification letter. The following reference must be used: “BaFin, …(name of investment compartment to which the de-notification relates), AendGeb.” A copy of the proof of payment of the de-notification fee must be supplied together with the de-notification notice, in addition to the documentary proofs that must be provided in all cases. BaFin can only process the discontinuation of marketing by way of de-notification and delete the investment compartment from its database once the necessary documents and proofs have been submitted in full. Your attention is drawn to section 295a (2), section 314 (1) no. 11 and section 314 (2).

Key information document in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 As from 01 January 2023, Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 requires a key information document to be drawn up for funds marketed to retail investors. This key information document provides investors with key information about the investment product that is prescribed by law and that is designed to assist with understanding the nature, risk, costs and potential gains and losses associated with this product, and to compare it with other products. This is not advertising material. Please see the provisions of Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 for the substantive requirements that must be met by the key information document III. Other Advertising Section 302 of the KAGB applies, which refers to the directly applicable provisions of Article 4(1), (4) and (5) of Regulation (EU) 2019/11565 . According to these provisions, AIFMs must ensure that all marketing communications addressed to investors are identifiable as such and describe the risks and rewards of purchasing units or shares of an AIF in an equally prominent manner. They must also ensure 5 Regulation (EU) 2019/1156 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 20 June 2019 on facilitating cross￾border distribution of collective investment undertakings and amending Regulations (EU) No 345/2013, (EU) No 346/2013 and (EU) No 1286/2014

that all information included in marketing communications is fair, clear and not misleading, with it also being necessary to take into account online aspects of such marketing communications. In order to provide clarification regarding the application of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) No 2019/1156, ESMA published the "Guidelines on marketing communications under the Regulation on cross-border distribution of funds" (ESMA34-45–1272), which apply in Germany6 . In this context, the following should be noted in particular: Although Regulation (EU) 2019/1156 does not define the term "marketing communication", a broad interpretation should be assumed. Examples of documents that may be considered as marketing communications and those that would not be covered by the term are listed under "1 Scope" of the Guidelines. Marketing communications must be clearly identifiable as such (item 6). They must contain sufficient information to make it clear that the communication has a purely marketing purpose and is consequently not a sufficient basis for an investment decision. A marketing communication is identifiable as such if it includes a prominent disclosure of the term "marketing communication". ESMA also recommends in this context that marketing communications include an appropriate disclaimer (item 7 of the Guidelines) or, if the disclaimer does not fit the format and length of an online marketing communication, some other statement identifying the marketing purpose of the communication (item 8 of the Guidelines). Marketing communications that include information about risks and rewards associated with purchasing units of an AIF must give a fair and prominent indication of any relevant risks (item 12 of the Guidelines). This relates to both the presentation and format (font, font size, placement) of such information. Rewards should not be referred to without also referring to the risks. They should both be mentioned either at the same level or one immediately after the other (items 14 and 15 of the Guidelines). Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) 2019/1156 also requires that promotional material for an AIF be fair, clear and not misleading. The ESMA Guidelines clarify these requirements (item 16 et seq. of the Guidelines). Marketing communications must be suitable for the target investors or potential investors, and the information presented in marketing communications must be consistent with the legal and regulatory documents of the relevant fund (item 20 of the Guidelines). Under section 302 (2) sentence 2 of the KAGB, AIFMs must ensure that all promotional material indicates that a prospectus exists and that the key information document as defined in Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 is available. Under section 302 (2) sentences 3 and 4 of the KAGB, AIFMs must also ensure that this promotional material always specifies where, how and in which language investors or potential investors can obtain the prospectus and the key information document as defined in Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, and that the promotional material always provides hyperlinks to or website addresses for those documents. Descriptions of the features of the investment are subject to requirements 6 BaFin announcement dated 27 September 2021; available at https://www.bafin.de/ref/19613868 .

relating to both format (such as font, font size, speed of speaking and volume of sound if audio or video is used) and content (item 22 et seq. of the Guidelines). Under section 302 (3) of the KAGB, AIFMs must also always ensure that promotional material includes information about where, how and in which language investors or potential investors can obtain a summary of investor rights, and provides a hyperlink to such summary. The summary also includes, as appropriate, information on access to collective redress mechanisms at EU and national level in the event of litigation. AIFMs must also ensure that promotional material clearly states that the AIFM may decide to cease marketing the AIF. Where marketing communications include information about the risks and rewards of a fund, it must be ensured that the information is consistent with the risk classification (item 36 of the Guidelines) and the information presented in documents such as the prospectus and other legal and regulatory documents (item 18 of the Guidelines). Information about costs should explain the overall impact of costs on the amount of the investment (item 41 of the Guidelines) and, where applicable, address the risks associated with costs in foreign currencies (item 42 of the Guidelines). ESMA also provides detailed guidelines for when marketing communications include information on the past performance and expected future performance of the fund (item 43 et seq. of the Guidelines) and information on sustainability-related aspects (item 59 et seq. of the Guidelines).
