An initial application for Shares may only be made by submitting a completed Application Form, along with supporting documentation referred to therein (including but not limited to documentation relating to money laundering prevention checks and tax status) (the “Supporting Documentation”), to the Administrator by post, facsimile or by approved electronic transmission (which may be signed in electronic form, as set out in the Application Form and where such electronic transmission is in accordance with Central Bank requirements).
· Where the signed Application Form and Supporting Documentation are submitted by facsimile, the originals shall be delivered by post to the Administrator promptly thereafter (unless otherwise determined by the AIFM).
· Where an initial application is made by post or by fax, provided that the original Application Form from the initial application together with any required Supporting Documentation have been received and approved by the Administrator, subsequent applications may be made to the Administrator by approved electronic transmission (including via an established electronic dealing platform).
· Where an investor is applying to subscribe for Shares via an electronic dealing platform, such investor will be required to subscribe for Shares pursuant to the terms of such electronic dealing platform.

Any subsequent subscription for Shares in a Class must also meet the Minimum Additional Subscription Amount, if any, specified in the relevant Supplement. For the purposes of calculating the Minimum Initial Subscription Amount and the Minimum Holding Amount, the Directors are permitted to aggregate investments received from multiple registered Shareholders which are managed or controlled by the same entity. For the avoidance of doubt, each investment used for aggregating the Minimum Initial Subscription Amount must not be less than €100,000 or its foreign currency equivalent.
The Directors or the AIFM reserve the right from time to time to waive any requirements relating to the Minimum Initial Subscription Amount (which in any case will not be less than €100,000 or its foreign currency equivalent), the Minimum Additional Subscription Amount and the Minimum Holding Amount as and when they determine, at their reasonable discretion.
Please refer to the Prospectus, in particular Section 3: “Share Dealings” as well as to the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.

Subscription Deadline
Applications for Shares received and accepted by the Administrator prior to the Subscription Deadline for a Sub-Fund in respect of a particular Dealing Day will normally be processed as at that Dealing Day.
Any applications for Shares received after the relevant Subscription Deadline for a particular Dealing Day will generally be processed on the next available Dealing Day, subject to the Subscription Deadline, unless the Directors or the AIFM, in their discretion, otherwise determine to accept one or more applications received after the Subscription Deadline but prior to the Valuation Point for that particular Dealing Day.
Applications for Shares in a Sub-Fund received after the relevant Subscription Deadline but prior to the Valuation Point will only be accepted in exceptional circumstances. The exceptional circumstances under which the application was received will also be fully documented by the Directors or the AIFM, as appropriate.
Dealing Days and Subscription Deadlines relating to each Sub-Fund are specified in the relevant Supplement.
Please refer to the Prospectus, in particular Section 3: “Share Dealings” as well as to the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.

Please refer to the Prospectus, in particular Section 3: “Share Dealings” as well as to the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.
Payment for Shares
Payment for the issue of Shares must be made by the Subscription Payment Date specified in the relevant Supplement by electronic transfer to the bank account specified in the Application Form, failing which the application will be held over until the next available Subscription Day subject to the Subscription Payment Date, unless otherwise determined by the Directors.
Payments must be made in cleared funds in the currency of denomination of the relevant Class.
Please refer to the Prospectus, in particular Section 3: “Share Dealings” as well as to the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.
Where provided for in the relevant Supplement, a Preliminary Charge of up to 3% on the issue of Shares may be payable. This charge will be in addition to any Anti-Dilution Levy which may be imposed. It should be noted that the amount paid for Shares issued could exceed their value on the day of issue. Details of this Preliminary Charge, if any, will be set out in the relevant Supplement. The Directors reserve the right to reduce or waive any Preliminary Charge and may distinguish between applicants for Shares accordingly. The Preliminary Charge, if applicable, is payable to the AIFM which may in turn be paid in full or in part to any sub-distributors, introducing agents or intermediaries that may be appointed for and on behalf of the Company.
Please refer to the Prospectus, in particular Section 7: “Fees and expenses” as well as to the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.
Subject to any limitations which may be specified in the relevant Supplement, a Shareholder may request the redemption of all or part of their Shares (not being Side Pocket Shares or a Liquidating Side Pocket Class) on any Redemption Day. Requests for the redemption of Shares should be made to the Company (care of the Administrator) prior to the Redemption Deadline for the relevant Redemption Day.
Redemption requests may be made by fax, email, in writing or by using an established electronic dealing platform. Redemption requests will only be accepted electronically where the Shareholder has accepted the terms and conditions of use of such service.
Redemption requests shall only be processed where payment is requested to be made to the account of record and where all necessary anti-money laundering and other verification documentation required by the Company and Administrator have been received and processed by the Administrator. The Administrator will not accept redemption requests which are incomplete until all the necessary information is obtained.
Please refer to the Prospectus, in particular Section 3: “Share Dealings” as well as to the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.
Redemption requests will be processed at the Net Asset Value per Share of the relevant Class on the relevant Redemption Day and shall be repaid to redeeming Shareholders at the Redemption Price, or, where provided for in the relevant Supplement, at the Redemption Price less any applicable Redemption
Charge. Such charge will be in addition to any Anti-Dilution Levy and/or any Duties and Charges which may be imposed. Potential Shareholders should therefore note that payments received for Shares redeemed could be less than the Net Asset Value per Share on the relevant Dealing Day.
Please refer to the Prospectus, in particular Section 7: “Fees and expenses” as well as to the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.
Redemption proceeds are payable in the Base Currency of the relevant Class (or such other Currency as the Directors shall determine and agree in advance with the relevant Shareholder) generally by the Redemption Payment Date.
The Redemption Payment Date is disclosed in the Supplement related to the relevant Sub-Fund.
