1. Where a UCITS or AIF consists of two or more investment compartments, a separate key information document shall be produced for each individual compartment.

2. Each key information document referred to in paragraph 1 shall contain, in the section entitled 'What is this product?', the following information:

(a) a statement that the key information document describes a compartment of a UCITS or AIF, and, where applicable, that the prospectus of the UCITS or the description of the investment strategy and objectives of the AIF and periodic reports are prepared for the entire UCITS or AIF named at the beginning of the key information document;

(b) whether or not the assets and liabilities of each compartment are segregated by law and how this might affect the investor;

(c) whether or not the retail investor has the right to exchange his investment in units in one compartment for units in another compartment, and if so, where to obtain information about how to exercise that right.

3. Where the UCITS management company or the AIFM sets a charge for the retail investor to exchange his investment in accordance with paragraph 2, point (c), and that charge differs from the standard charge for buying or selling units, that charge shall be stated separately in the section entitled 'What are the costs?' of the key information document.
