a) Investment Risks

The following must be indicated:

Investment Companies seek to offer workers adequate returns in accordance with market conditions, strictly adhering to the Authorized Investment Regime, without this implying a guaranteed return. Likewise, the prices of the Investment Assets in which Investment Companies invest fluctuate daily, so the value of the investment could decrease depending on market conditions.

The credit ratings granted to Debt Instruments and Foreign Debt Securities by specialized agencies do not represent a guarantee of payment of the initial investments, but only an opinion on the issuer's ability to fulfill its obligations.

The registration in the National Securities Registry applicable to certain Instruments does not imply certification of the guarantee of returns of the Instrument or the solvency of each issuer.

b) Write-downs.

The following must be indicated:

" The prices of Investment Assets, as well as the shares representing the paid-in capital of the Investment Companies, may present write-downs derived from fluctuations in financial markets. In the event that there is any non-compliance with the Authorized Investment Regime, these write-downs will be attributable to the Administrators and must be compensated from the Administrator's special reserve, and in case this is insufficient, they will be covered from the share capital, in addition to establishing a portfolio reconstruction program for the Investment Companies. This in accordance with what is provided in the General Financial Provisions of the retirement savings systems and in the General Provisions that establish the investment regime to which Specialized Retirement Fund Investment Companies must be subject.

On the other hand, when write-downs occur derived from extraordinary situations in financial markets, and having complied with what is provided in the General Financial Provisions of the retirement savings systems and the General Provisions that establish the investment regime to which Specialized Retirement Fund Investment Companies must be subject, neither the Administrator nor the Commission has the obligation to compensate for such write-downs, understanding that these are part of an inherent risk of investments in financial markets.

It will be understood that there is a write-down in the Investment Company's portfolio when the price of the share of said Company at the close of a day is lower than said price on the previous business day.

c) Inspection and supervision by the Commission

The following must be indicated:

" CONSAR is the competent authority to regulate, inspect, and supervise the operation of the Investment Companies, as well as the Administrator operating them. "

d) Acceptance of the information prospectus by the worker

The following must be indicated:

" In order to comply with what is established in article 47 bis, penultimate paragraph, of the Law, the Administrator operating the Investment Companies will have this information prospectus available in its offices and branches or through the Administrator's Internet page, for registered workers. "

e) Custody of titles

The Financial Intermediaries to whom the Administrator has contracted to deposit the Investment Assets, as well as the shares of the Investment Companies for safekeeping, will be indicated.

f) Rating of the Investment Companies

The Administrator may disclose on its Internet page and in the information board of its offices and branches the current credit rating granted to the Investment Companies by a securities rating institution, as well as its meaning. In its case, these credit ratings must be modified within a maximum of 10 business days following the date on which they undergo any modification.

g) Inquiries, complaints, and claims

The following must be indicated:
