The Project Holders (and/or the SPV) also agree to provide and publish the documents set forth in the guidance page that will be made available to the Project Holder (and/or the SPV) by the CSP.

6. INVESTOR DISCIPLINE

6.1 Sophisticated Investors

SiamoSoci informs Sophisticated Investors that they may have full access to the investment opportunities posted on the Platform only after completing the qualification procedure as Sophisticated Investors.

In particular, a user who believes that he or she meets the necessary requirements for qualification as a Sophisticated Investor should, as the case may be, either complete the application for treatment as a Sophisticated Investor, according to the template made available by SiamoSoci on the Platform, following the relevant process, or contact Platform support to submit the necessary documentation.

6.2 Non-Sophisticated Investors

SiamoSoci informs Non-Sophisticated Investors that they may have full access to the investment opportunities posted on the Platform only after: (i) taking the Entrance Test and (ii) performing the Loss Support Capacity Simulation.

SiamoSoci informs Non-Sophisticated Investors:

1. of the importance of correctly answering the questions contained in the Entrance Test questionnaire;
2. of the importance of answering all the questions contained therein;
3. that missing and/or incorrect answers may result in the test result being "Not Appropriate" and the consequences thereof;
4. of the length of validity of the Entrance Test and the need to retake it after 2 years;
5. of the duration of validity of the Loss Support Capacity Simulation and the need to repeat it every year.

Once the Entrance Test is completed, the Non-Sophisticated Investor is notified of the result of the test.

The result of the test can be "Appropriate," where the Non-Sophisticated Investor has demonstrated at least a sufficient level of knowledge, experience, and understanding of the crowdfunding services offered, or "Not Appropriate," where the Non-Sophisticated Investor's level of knowledge, experience, and understanding of the crowdfunding services offered has proven to be insufficient.

The "Not Appropriate" result will also be assigned to Non-Sophisticated Investors who have not provided sufficient information necessary to assess their level of knowledge, experience and understanding of the crowdfunding services offered.

In case of a "Not Appropriate" result of the Entrance Test, SiamoSoci:

1. Will warn the Unsophisticated Investor that investments on the projects on the Platform may be inappropriate for him/her;
2. Will issue to the Non-Sophisticated Investor a risk warning, and will not encourage him to proceed with the investment.

The Non-Sophisticated Investor must confirm that he/she has received and understood the risk warning by ticking an appropriate flag.

In addition, where the Non-Sophisticated Investor intends to invest in a single Offering an amount in excess of its Investment Threshold, SiamoSoci will:

1. address a risk warning to the Non-Sophisticated Investor;
2. request from the Non-Sophisticated Investor the manifestation of explicit consent to make the investment in an amount exceeding its Investment Threshold;
3. verify that Non-Sophisticated Investor has obtained an "Appropriate" result on the Entrance Test.

In fact, where the Non-Sophisticated Investor has recorded a "Not Appropriate" result at the Entrance Test, such investor will not be able to finalize his or her investment in an amount above his or her Investment Threshold and will have to reduce the amount until the investment is brought back below that Investment Threshold.

In addition, where the Non-Sophisticated Investor has failed to complete the Entrance Test (especially the part related to Section 4) and the Losses Simulation, SiamoSoci will not be able to concretely identify the Investment Threshold. As a result, the Non-Sophisticated Investor will only be able to make investments in amounts of €1,000 or less.

SiamoSoci also informs Non-Sophisticated Investors that:

1. It is highly advisable and advisable to invest in the capital of Project Holders only in the case where the investment is appropriately related to their financial means;
2. they may exercise the right of Repetition within 4 calendar days from the date of the order;
3. they may exercise the right of Withdrawal under Article 23 par. 12 when, as a result of their investment, errors or inaccuracies are found in the published KIIS that could significantly affect the expected return on investment ;
4. SiamoSoci does not provide advice or make recommendations regarding the financial instruments covered by individual offers;
5. SiamoSoci has prepared the Conflicts of Interest Policy visible at the following link;
6. SiamoSoci has prepared a privacy policy visible at the following link;
7. SiamoSoci has prepared a policy for handling Complaints visible at the following link;
8. SiamoSoci has prepared page dedicated to Costs visible at the following link
9. All investors (sophisticated and unsophisticated) are required to finalize their investment order by wire transfer addressed to the unavailable account intended for the Project Owner (or SPV). The Manager requires that the crediting of the wire transfer made by the Investor to finalize the membership entered on the Platform (the "Crediting") be recorded as an entry to the escrow account intended for the Project Holder within 14 days from the date of entry of the membership order (the "Collection Deadline"). In the event that the escrow account intended for the Project Holder is not credited with the transfer made by the investor for payment of the full countervalue of the subscribed tranche within the Collection Deadline, the investment order will be considered an 'Inevident Order' and the Manager will automatically cancel the same, giving, if necessary, written notice to the investor of the cancellation. If, for any reason, the Crediting arrives in the bank account designated for the offering on a date later than the date of Cancellation of the Inevaso Order, the Manager will proceed without charge to return the amount received in respect of the cancelled Inevaso Order within 15 business days from the date of Cancellation of the Inevaso Order. (Further clarification at Faq No. 7).

7. ALTERNATIVE REGIME OF TRANSFER AND HEADER OF SHARES

Through a special agreement between Siamosoci and Directa S.I.M S.p.a. with registered office in Turin, Via Buozzi no. 5, tax code and number of registration with the Register of Companies 06837440012, a securities brokerage company authorized to provide the services of i) receipt and transmission of orders, ii) placement without irrevocable commitment to the Issuer, iii) execution of orders on behalf of Clients concerning financial instruments, and iv) investment advice (hereinafter, also "Directa SIM"), the Investor is given the opportunity to take advantage of the alternative regime of header and transfer of units, as per Art. 100-ter, para. 2, of the TUF (the "Alternative Regime") under the terms and conditions set forth below.

The Alternative Regime, applicable only to offers of units of limited liability companies, allows Investors to make the header of the units subscribed on the Mamacrowd Platform through Directa SIM which, therefore, will proceed to the header of the units in its own name and on behalf of the Investor (performing the so-called "Rubrication Service") by opening a special account with Directa SIM in the name of the investor who adheres to the Alternative Regime (the "SIM Account")

Adherence to the Alternative Regime entails a derogation from the ordinary regime set forth in Article 2470, co. 2, Civil Code and Article 37, co. 1-bis, of DL. 112/2008 (the "Ordinary Regime"), and is subject to a specific option by the Investor.
