Agreements with Third Parties

The Bank is specifically authorised by the Customer to conclude agreements with third parties for the execution of activities and services relative to any Platform. The Bank reserves the right to outsource activities to third parties without needing to provide any information to the Customer.

Orders

The Bank may carry out the orders of any duly authorised person or any person who appears at the Bank as an Authorised Person, despite the fact that the person is not actually authorised. The Customer pledges to compensate the Bank for any losses incurred as a result of errors stemming from orders sent by an Authorised Person, or from orders which appear to be transmitted by an Authorised Person.

The order given by, or on behalf of the Customer, cannot be cancelled, revoked or modified without the Bank giving their express consent. The Bank can, at their absolute discretion, refuse any order of negotiation given by/or on behalf of the Customer without having to provide explanations. The Bank may not be considered responsible for any losses which may result from the failure to execute an order.

Execution of an order by the Bank generally requires the Customer's account to have buying power equal to or in excess of the purchase price of the securities prior to the transaction date. The Bank may, at its own discretion, revoke or liquidate all orders accepted and implemented i should the Account not have the necessary coverage. The Customer is responsible for all orders issued, including those exceeding the funds available on the Account.

The Bank is not responsible for any losses, expenses, costs or liabilities incurred or detected by the Customer as a result of instructions given, or communications sent Online. The Customer is solely responsible for the orders and the accuracy of the information, sent Online, in the name or using the name of the Customer or the personal identification number. The order cannot be considered executed until the Bank confirms its execution to the Customer. Just transmitting the order is not binding to the Bank. The Bank may (but is not obliged to) request confirmation (in the form they consider most appropriate) of any instruction, should they consider it necessary or desirable for purposes of closing an Account or transferring the assets.

The Bank may limit the possibility of introducing orders using the Online Trading Service during certain trading hours. The trading hours in foreign currencies is from 11:00pm on Sunday until 11:00pm on Friday.

Trading hours for other Financial Instruments vary according to the market and the underlying asset of the individual derivative or exchange traded product. The Bank may publishes the trading hours on the website www.credinvest.ch and/or directly on the Platforms. It is not possible to enter orders through the Online Trading Service outside of the trading hours. The Customer acknowledges that, even during trading hours, the Online Trading Service may not be available 24 hours a day but depends, among other things, on the days and the negotiation schedules of the financial centres, the regulations on public holidays, the work hours of the negotiation centres and the services in charge of the internal counts at the Bank, respectively of the outside brokers. The technical support activity to Customers provided by the Bank is guaranteed from Monday to Friday between 9:00am and 17:00pm and the operative support is guaranteed from Monday to Friday between 9:00am and 17:00pm.

The Bank can define a minimum and/or maximum number of batches which can be negotiated during trading hours on currencies, precious metals, CFDs and any other Financial Instruments. The minimum and/or maximum number of batches which can be negotiated by category of Financial Instrument may be published on the site www.credinvest.och and/or directly on the Platforms. The CFDs have different maturity dates which may not correspond to the maturity dates of the underlying products on the market. All positions opened in CFDs will be closed at the market price in effect on the maturity date and the positions will not be transferred to a new contract. The maturity dates of the CFDs can be found on the Platform.

The confirmations of the transactions carried out are sent to the Customer via alert (pop-up) on the Platform. If the Customer notes a difference between the operation concluded through the Online Trading Service and the confirmation, he/she must inform the Bank immediately upon receipt of the confirmation, and no later than 2 days from the conclusion of the operation. If the Customer does not receive any confirmation, he/she must notify the Bank within 2 working days of the conclusion of the operation. If, by this deadline, the Bank does not receive any objection, the confirmation is considered received and accepted. The Customer accepts without reservations all the transactions recorded on his/her Accounts/deposits as a result of using the Online Trading Service. The Customer commits to immediately notifying the Bank if, for any reason, an incorrect and/or not requested transaction message is displayed via the Online Trading Service.

Any claim concerning the execution or the failed execution of an order must be sent to the Bank in writing as soon as the Customer has proof of the problem and, in any case, before the opening of the market of reference, the day following that of the execution of the transaction. After this period of time, the Customer no longer has any rights, of any kind, against the Bank.

(4)

Should the Bank believe that the Customer is using the Account for illegal purposes it can, at its exclusive discretion, close all open positions of that Account, deducting and/or applying the fees anticipated for the operations carried out also previously on behalf of the Customer, and refuse to accept any further request from the Customer.

Data and information on the Market

The Bank is not responsible towards the Customer or third parties for:

a. any inaccuracies, errors, delays or omissions of any fact, information or message nor for the transmission or delivery of any fact, information or message;

b. any losses or damages deriving from/or which occurred as a result of inaccuracy, error, delay, omission, failed performance, interruption in any fact, information or message, due to any act of negligence or omission or to any condition of force majeure or any other cause, whether attributable or not to the sphere of control of the Bank or the supplier. No instruction or communication transmitted electronically by the Customer will be considered received by the Bank until the Bank knows about this instruction or communication.

Margin deposit, guarantee and payments The Customer is required to deposit at the Bank:

a. assets in a currency acceptable to the Bank, as initial margin or margin of change; b. assets requested from time to time by the Bank to execute a Contract;

c. assets necessary to liquidate positions or to cover debit balances of any Account.

The margin required may vary depending on the Financial Instrument traded, the stock exchange and the reference market, the volatility recorded or estimated and the trading and collateral volumes maintained by the Customer. More specifically, the Bank reserves the right to withhold a smaller margin percentage for amounts of collateral up to a certain notional amount. A smaller margin percentage entails greater Customer exposure to risk (higher financial leverage). The margin required for each Financial Instrument is stated directly on the Platform and may also be specified on the website www.credinvest.ch.

The Bank reserves the right to interrupt the Customer's transactions if the available margin is less than the level required by the Platform. Securities and cash present on the Platform may be blocked by the Bank in the amount to which they are used as collateral. The Customer may provide forms of guarantee other than liquid assets, in order to comply with his/her obligations in accordance with this Clause only subject to explicit agreement by the Bank. The Bank is free to decide which types of activity to accept as collateral and which percentage to apply as a haircut. The Bank can change, at any time, the type of activities accepted as collateral as well as the percentages of its haircuts applied without having to give the Customer any advance notice. The Platform might show the notional amount (expressed in the customer’s reference currency) which is blocked as collateral.. The Customer may find him/herself needing to replenish the margin given as guarantee very quickly to avoid the risk that the positions are closed and he/she loses all or part of the assets. The Bank reserves the right to send to the Customer a notice on the Platform and/or an e-mail notice (to the address specified in the Request to access the Online Trading Service) if the erosion of the margin should exceed a given percentage and the requests to replenish the margin. The Customer can see existing margins and assets on the Platform. The Customer is responsible for acknowledging the request to replenish the margin by the Bank on the Platform (and potentially by means of e-mail) and to take the necessary action. In some cases, changes may be so sudden as to require the closure of the Customer's positions without prior warning and without the possibility of replenishing the margin. If the Customer does not have or cannot provide sufficient margin on the positions, the Bank has the right, but not the obligation, to immediately interrupt transactions by means of the Online Trading Service, to close some or all of the Customer's open margin positions, without previous approval and without notice.

The Bank is under no obligation to guarantee that the deposit requirements of the margin have been satisfied by the Customer before stipulating a Contract, and that the obligations of the Customer towards a Contract are not reduced following any inability by the Bank to suspend payment of margin deposits before the stipulation of a Contract. The Customer is required to promptly deposit the amount due for the execution of a Contract, in conformity with its terms, and in compliance with all the instructions provided by the Bank so that they can fulfil the obligations anticipated by the contract, stipulated between the Bank and a third party.

The Bank may (but is not obliged to) convert possible sums of cash held by it on the Customer's behalf in a different currency, if this is considered necessary or appropriate in order to cover the obligations and the liabilities of the Customer in that currency, by applying the market rate plus its standard commissions. The Customer acknowledges that the possibilities of carrying out transactions are limited to the currencies for which a specific execution account has been

(5)

opened. The Bank reserves the right not to authorize the opening of individual accounts considered unsuitable for carrying out such operations.

Right of pledge, guarantee, compensation and conservation

General provisions

The Bank is not responsible towards the Customer for failure to fulfil the obligations included in these Conditions if this non-fulfilment derives directly or indirectly from circumstances outside its reasonable control. Any delay or inability by the Bank in the exercise of its rights, pursuant to these Conditions, cannot be considered a waiver or a renunciation of these rights, nor does it compromise or prevent further or other exercise of these same rights.

Financial Terms and Conditions

The Customer declares to accept the Online Trading Service pricing applied by the Platform. Any pricing published oh the website www.credinvest.ch is purely indicative and may diverge from what applied by the Platform.

The Bank reserves the right to change at any time the fees and spreads applied, as well as to introduce new costs, by posting these directly in the Platform. More specifically, the Bank reserves the right to apply a minimum commission or vary the level of commission depending on the trading volumes of the Customer.

(8)

The Bank also reserves the right to receive commission for providing consultation on certain information (e.g. market data), available through the Online Trading Service. The nature of this information and the related commission are disclosed to the Customer by means of the Online Trading Service.

In addition to the commission applied by the Bank, the Customer must also pay current value added tax and all other taxes, duties and expenses connected with the conclusion of enforcement of the order/s or transfer of assets, including any fees due to counterparties (i.e. intermediaries or brokers). Before transmitting orders, the Customer commits to learn the Online Trading Service, its features and characteristics, the types of orders which can be carried out, the costs and the margin levels of the transactions.

The Bank reserves the right to take all positions in currencies that are open as of 11.00pm to the following trading day using the so-called "rollover position", debiting or crediting the Account with the difference in interest on the traded currencies (tom-next rollover). The Bank may do so automatically. More specifically, the Bank credits the various swap points (which measure the difference between the interest rates of the two currencies) to positions if the interest rate on the currency purchased is higher than the interest rate on the currency sold, whilst it debits the difference if the interest rate on the currency purchased is lower than the interest rate on the currency sold. The rollovers applied can be seen directly on the Platform.

The Customer is also aware that for transactions in CFD maintained in place until the next trading day, the Bank applies interest income/expense depending on the position held (long or short). If the Customer has a long position, it will be debited on the basis of the reference interest rate plus a mark-up determined by the Bank at its own discretion. If the Customer has a short position, it will be debited on the basis of the reference interest rate plus a mark-up determined by the Bank at its own discretion. The amount debited is calculated on the nominal value of the underlying asset at the time the CFD is opened (for both long and short positions).

The Customer declares that he/she has been informed and is aware that the Bank may receive payments of any kind from depositary banks, intermediaries, brokers or other counterparties and recognises the legitimacy of these payments. The Customer declares that he/she has been informed and is aware that the Bank may pay possible rebates or commissions to depositary banks, intermediaries, brokers or other counterparties that offer services to the Bank and/or the Client in connection with the Platform. The duty of information about these payments is on these counterparties.
