The undersigned (the “Subscriber”) hereby irrevocably subscribes for that number of Units (the “Units”) of the Trust as set forth below at a price per Unit as described in the Prospectus of the Trust dated as of 01 September 2021 as it may be amended from time to time, relating to the offering of the Units (the “Prospectus”) .
The Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber will be issued Units of the Trust.
By submitting this subscription, the Subscriber acknowledges having received and read the Prospectus and that the Manager is relying on the representations and warranties set out below.
By submitting this subscription, the Subscriber acknowledges having received and read the Prospectus and that the Manager is relying on the representations and warranties set out below.
All Subscribers that are “individual investors” must complete Schedule “A” or Schedule “A-1”.
For a Subscriber purchasing the Units through another registered dealer (“Subscribers Agent”), it is the Subscriber’s Agent’s responsibility to fulfill all relevant “know-your-client” obligations and to assess whether the Units are a suitable investment for the Subscriber. The Subscriber’s Agent is also responsible for all identification and investor information collection obligations under any anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing legislation. If the Subscriber’s Agent and the Subscriber complete Schedule “B”, the subscriber need not complete the Mombe Mari Unit Trust Know-Your-Client form or Schedule “C” or Schedule “D”.
For a Subscriber purchasing Units directly through the Manager (and not through another dealer), the Manager must determine whether the Units are a suitable investment for the Subscriber having regard to the Subscriber’s investment needs and objectives, his or her financial circumstances and risk tolerances. The Manager must also collect additional information under anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism legislation. In this regard, the Subscriber must complete the Mombe Mari Unit Trust Know-Your-Client form or Schedule “C”, as well as Schedule “D” (if applicable).
All Subscribers that are “permitted clients” and who do not wish to complete the Mombe Mari Unit Trust Know-Your-Client form must complete “Schedule C” or must be a registered firm, a Zimbabwean financial institution or commercial bank.
General
The Subscriber acknowledges the information contained in the Prospectus including, in particular, those investment considerations described therein in the Prospectus entitled “Risk Factors”.

The Subscriber tenders herewith, in full payment of the aggregate subscription price of the Units, a cheque made payable to the Trust or confirmation of wire instructions or other evidence of payment (as the Manager and the selling dealer may otherwise permit or require) for the amount set forth below representing the purchase price of the Units subscribed for. No Units shall be issued to the Subscriber until the Valuation Date following receipt by the Trust of the subscription proceeds and the Subscription Agreement duly completed.

The acceptance of this subscription shall be effective upon the written acceptance by the Manager and the deposit of the payment into any of the Trust’s accounts. The Subscriber shall be bound by the terms of the DOT upon acceptance of this Subscription. This Subscription Agreement and the subscription proceeds shall be returned without interest or deduction to the Subscriber at the address indicated in the Subscription Agreement if this subscription is not accepted. If the subscription is accepted only in part, a cheque representing a portion of the purchase price for that portion of the subscription price for the Units which is not accepted will be promptly delivered or mailed to the Subscriber without interest or penalty. Subscription funds received prior to a Subscription Date will be kept in a segregated account (without interest or deduction) in trust for the Subscriber pending acceptance of this Subscription Agreement.
