3. Policy for the identification and management of conflicts of interest

3.1 Purpose and Scope

The purpose of this Policy is to outline how the CSP identifies, prevents, manages and discloses conflicts of interest that may arise in the provision of Services.

This Policy applies to all business areas of the SPC and is directed primarily at the SPC and its Related Parties.

3.2 Investments by Related Parties

The CSP accepts Related Parties as investors in the Platform.

In such cases, the CSP applies the measures and safeguards described in Section 5 of this Policy.

The CSP ensures that such parties do not enjoy preferential treatment or privileged access to information.

3.3 Prevention, identification and management of possible Conflict of Interest situations

3.3.1 Conflict of Interest Transactions

In order to identify possible Conflict of Interest situations that may arise in the provision of the Services, the CSP, firstly verifies that no one among (i) the Relevant Persons; (ii) the CSP; (iii) entities participated by the CSP is accepted as a Project Holder in relation to the Bids posted on the Platform.

Where any of the aforementioned parties requests the SPC to publish its own bid on the Platform, the SPC will, automatically, identify the transaction as a "Conflict of Interest Transaction" and reject it, without the need for any prior assessment in this regard.

3.3.2 Transactions with Potential Conflict of Interest

"Potential Conflict of Interest" means:

1. ● a situation of potential conflict of interest between where the SPC and/or Relevant Persons and Clients where, the SPC and/or Relevant Persons:

● by investing on the Platform, may realize a financial gain (e.g., by entering into the Project Holder's share capital, or by acquiring option rights or other securities or instruments permitted for crowdfunding purposes of the Project Holder);

● has an interest in the outcome of the service provided to an Investor and/or Project Holder distinct from that of the Investor and/or Project Holder itself;

● has an incentive (financial or otherwise) to favor the interests of an Investor and/or Project Holder other than those to whom the service is rendered;

● performs the same activity as the Project Holder;

● receives or may receive from a person other than the Investor and/or Project Holder, in connection with the service provided to them, an inducement, in the form of money, goods or services, other than the fees or commissions normally received for such service.

2. a situation of potential conflict of interest between the CSP and/or a Related Party on the one hand and one or more Clients on the other, where there may be:

• the risk of exchanging information to the detriment of one or more Clients;
• the risk of influencing the decisions of other parties in order to obtain personal gain or other advantage;
• the risk of correlation between the remuneration of the above persons and the remuneration or income generated by different persons.

Where the CSP is faced with a situation of Potential Conflict of Interest, the CSP will conduct an assessment of the potential conflict of interest, which will be carried out guided by principles of honesty, fairness and professionalism and acting in the best interests of Clients (the "Assessment ofPotential Conflict of Interest" or "Assessment").

This Assessment is carried out by the organizational structure of the SPC in the preparatory phase to the publication of the Offers on the Platform, with the aim of assessing whether and to what extent the Potential Conflict of Interest being assessed is likely to adversely affect the interests of Clients, in order, primarily, to prevent the occurrence of Potential Conflict of Interest situations.

Where the situation of Potential Conflict of Interest emerges, on the other hand, at a time subsequent to the publication of the offer on the Platform, the SPC will carry out the Assessment and, if necessary, immediately notify its Clients, through the Disclosure (as defined below).

3.4 Outcome of the Potential Conflict of Interest Assessment3.4.1 Disclosure

If, as a result of the Potential Conflict of Interest Assessment, the SPC decides to nevertheless carry out one or more of the transactions with Potential Conflict of Interest, it will proceed, first of all, to adequately inform its Clients, by publishing on the Platform a disclosure (the "Disclosure") containing a detailed description of the nature and sources of the Potential Conflict of Interest and the related risks for Clients, as well as any further measures taken to mitigate it, based on principles of immediacy and maximum transparency.

3.4.2 Further measures aimed at the implementation of the Potential Conflict of Interest

In any case, in the presence of a transaction that presents profiles of Potential Conflict of Interest, the persons directly involved in the situation of Potential Conflict of Interest will refrain from carrying out any activity related and/or preliminary to the conduct of the bid on the Platform that involves evaluations or judgments regarding the project.

Should it emerge at the outcome of the Assessment that the Disclosure alone is not sufficient for the management and/or implementation of the Potential Conflict of Interest, the CSP shall request the intervention of the Mamacrowd Committee for the identification of the most appropriate measures for the mitigation and management of the Potential Conflict of Interest that has occurred.

3.4.3) Inability to Resolve Conflict of Interest

If, even through the possible adoption of the measures described above, Mamacrowd finds that it is not possible to resolve the Potential Conflict of Interest it will desist from carrying out the transaction with Potential Conflict of Interest.

3.4.4) Complaint Management System

In any case, Mamacrowd has implemented a timely, fair and consistent Complaint Management System, structured to ensure that the analysis of any complaints filed by customers is carried out by personnel unrelated to the activities involved in the transactions with Potential Conflict of Interest, thereby ensuring independent judgment, and providing a standard template for filing the same Complaint, also keeping a record of all complaints received and measures taken and transmitting the relevant feedback within a reasonable period of time.

3.4.5 Conflict of Interest Register

The CSP shall establish and update a special register (the "Conflict of Interest Register") in which all situations for which a conflict has arisen, or may arise, that could potentially harm the interests of customers as well as the measures taken to mitigate and resolve it are reported.

4. Measures for the prevention of conflict of interest situations

The SPC prevents the occurrence of conflict of interest situations and manages conflicts of interest that may arise in the provision of Services in accordance with the following basic principles:

• assessment of the risk of causing harm to Clients' interests;
• monitoring the execution of Related Party Transactions;
• keeping and maintaining the register of Related Party Transactions;
• monitoring and management of circumstances that constitute or may give rise to a Conflict of Interest.

With the intent to prevent and avoid the possible occurrence of a Potential Conflict of Interest, the SPC has set up a system of controls and measures aimed at identifying and preventing Potential Conflicts of Interest. These identification and prevention controls and measures include:

(a) Code of Conduct, which defines the core values and general rules of conduct to be followed by members of administrative and supervisory bodies and employees and collaborators of the SPC in the performance of their respective positions and duties;

(b) Procedure for the Selection and Evaluation of Projects, which defines the criteria to be followed in the selection and evaluation of projects;

(e) Privacy policy that defines how data will be processed;

(f) Policy for handling customer complaints;

(g) Procedures related to information technology and risk management
