1. Any changes in information shall be deemed material within the meaning of rule 3.3.5(4) of the Investment Funds sourcebook if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor, becoming aware of such information, would reconsider its investment in the AIF, including because such information could impact an investor's ability to exercise its rights in relation to its investment, or otherwise prejudice the interests of one or more investors in the AIF.

2. In order to comply with rule 3.3.5(4) of the Investment Funds sourcebook, AIFMs shall assess changes in the information referred to in section 3.2 of the Investment Funds sourcebook during the financial year in accordance with paragraph 1 of this Article.

3. Information shall be disclosed in line with the requirements of the accounting standards and accounting rules adopted by the AIF together with a description of any potential or anticipated impact on the AIF and, as the case may be, or investors in the AIF.
