Directors of the Board of K2 Asset Management Ltd have the right to refuse to register any transfer of Units in their unlimited discretion.

Special Characteristics of the Purchase and Sale of CD4 Units:

• The Responsible Entity may not permit the transaction of Units which exceeds either 100 individual transactions, or $1.5 million (measured by sale price), in each 12-month period.
• Thereafter, if a transaction would cause either the total volume or value of all transactions entered into in any 12-month period to exceed either of those limits, the Responsible Entity may not approve the transaction or suspend the market to the start of the subsequent 12 month period. In such a case interested Sellers and Buyers would have the option of either waiting for the next 12-month period to commence or find counterparty themselves (i.e. a party that is not on the Register).
• The Low Volume Market provides you with one way to potentially locate a buyer or seller for units in the Fund. You may still find your own buyer for shares outside of the market at any point, including if the market closes for the 12-months.

• The Off-Market Transfer form must be signed by both Buyer and Seller within 30 days of a transaction being agreed to, with the original signed document provided to the Unit Registry for processing. It is possible to complete these forms electronically.
• Settlement of the transaction must be completed by the Buyer and Seller, with a recommendation that the Seller request for the Buyer to provide a bank cheque, money order or execute a settlement agreement provided by the Responsible Entity to facilitate the settlement of the transaction.
• Funds paid by direct credit or electronic transfer will need to be received into the account which the Unitholder has on file with the Unit Registry.
• Stamp duty payable by the purchaser on the transfer of shares in the Company is no longer applicable in any State/Territory. It would however be prudent for the purchaser to confirm the current situation with the State or Territory Revenue Office where the Company was incorporated.
