Jan Michael Hess, jan@ecosummit.net, +4917621208417Important Information This presentation has been prepared by the Ecosummit Ventures management team (the Ecosummit Ventures management team and each Ecosummit Ventures entity and affiliate together “Ecosummit Ventures”) purely for informational purposes. The information in this presentation is subject to updating, completion, revision and amendment. The information contained in this presentation is selective and does not intend to be complete. This presentation does not contain a complete description of the envisaged fund project (the “Fund”), tax consequences of an investment in the Fund and the risk associated with an investment in the Fund. The information in this presentation reflects the opinion of Ecosummit Ventures on the basis of its own expertise, economic analysis and information currently known to it and which was correct at the time of preparing this presentation to the best of its knowledge. However, Ecosummit Ventures will not assume any further obligation to permit a possible investor access to any additional information or to update this presentation or correct any inaccuracies possibly contained herein. The information contained herein shall not under any circumstances be construed as comprising any sort of undertaking, representation, warranty or guarantee, express or implied, on the part of Ecosummit Ventures in relation to the accuracy, the reliance to be placed on, or completeness of, this presentation. Ecosummit Ventures does not accept any express or implied liability for the information contained in this presentation. Due care and attention has been used in preparation of historical and of forecast information. However, actual results may vary from forecasts and estimates, and any variation may be materially positive or negative. No representation or warranty is made as to future performance or other forward-looking statements. Any such forward-looking statements, by their very nature, are subject to uncertainty and contingencies many of which are outside the control of Ecosummit Ventures. Past performance is not an indicator of future results. Prospective investors are responsible for making their own examination of Ecosummit Ventures and the terms of the Fund and their own assessment of the merits and risks of investing in the Fund. They should consult their own legal, tax or other advisors before considering investing in the Fund. Investors should have the financial ability and willingness to accept the risk and lack of liquidity that are characteristic of an investment in the Fund. The presentation is issued to the potential investor solely for purposes of considering whether there is a fundamental interest in working with Ecosummit Ventures. The information given in this presentation should not be considered as a recommendation in relation to purchasing, holding or selling limited partnership interests in the Fund. The information provided in this presentation is furnished on a confidential basis to the recipient for information purposes only and does not constitute an offer to purchase or otherwise invest in limited partnership interests in the Fund. The Fund’s management entity intends to be registered as EuVECA Manager in accordance with Sec. 2(6), 337 German Investment Code (Kapitalanlagegesetzbuch) and Regulation (EU) 345/2013. The Fund will not accept binding subscriptions before the registration process is completed. The Fund has not submitted itself to full regulation under the German Investment Code. Therefore, material investor protection provisions of the German Investment Code, as well as the strict requirements in relation to AIF capital management companies subject to a license, do not apply to the Fund or the management entity. Even after the completion of the registration process as EuVECA Manager, the Fund and its management entity will not be authorized by BaFin and will, therefore, not be a regulated Alternative Investment Fund under the German Investment Code. An investor in such “unregulated” fund is only covered by the rules and regulations as set forth in Regulation (EU) 345/2013 but will not be covered by the rules and regulations made for the protection of investors by the German Investment Code. In accordance with the provisions of the German Investment Code and the Capital Investment Act (Vermögensanlagengesetz), the Fund does not intend to prepare a prospectus and, therefore, will not obtain a prior permission of such prospectus with BaFin. THE INTEREST IN THE FUND MUST NOT BE OFFERED TO OR PLACED WITH RETAIL INVESTORS. THEREFORE, THE FUND WILL ONLY ACCEPT SUBSCRIPTIONS BY (SEMI-)PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS AND OTHER EUVECA-ELIGIBLE INVESTORS AS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 6 (1) of REGULATION (EU) 345/2103. This presentation was created as of 1 April 2019 and issued on the terms as above. The information set forth in this Presentation is proprietary and shall be maintained in strict confidence. Each recipient hereof acknowledges and agrees that the contents of this document (i) constitute proprietary and confidential information that Ecosummit Ventures derives independent economic value from not being generally known and (ii) are the subject of reasonable efforts to maintain their secrecy. The recipient further agrees that the contents of this document are a trade secret, the disclosure of which is likely to cause substantial and irreparable competitive harm to Ecosummit Ventures. Any reproduction or distribution of this document, in whole or in part, or the disclosure of its contents, without the prior written consent of Ecosummit Ventures, is prohibited.
