17th June 2025 Dear Shareholder,
In accordance with Article 8.1 of the Instrument of Incorporation of the ICAV the board of directors of the ICAV (the "Board of Directors") has decided to proceed with a split of the Shares in respect of the Sub- Fund (the "Share Split").
Capitalised terms not defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the most recent version of
the prospectus of the ICAV (the "Prospectus"), unless the context otherwise requires.
The number of Shares in relation to the Sub-Fund will be divided by applying a "Share Split Factor" of ten. As a result, following the Share Split, each Shareholder of the Sub-Fund will hold a greater number of Shares. For every one Share held by a Shareholder in the Sub-Fund prior to the Share Split, the Shareholder will hold 10 Shares on the Effective Date, 2nd July 2025.
The Share Split will lead to a change in the number of Shares that a Shareholder holds in the Sub-Fund but will be without any impact on the value of a Shareholder's holding in other sub-funds of the ICAV. As of the day of the Share Split, the amount of investment in the Sub-Fund will be expressed by a greater amount of Shares.
For illustration purposes, an example of the Stock Split at the proposed Share Split Factor is detailed in in Schedule A below
The Share Split and simultaneous Net Asset Value division aims to reduce the Net Asset Value per Share of each Share Class in the Sub-Fund in order to increase accessibility of the shares to wider segments of the market, in particular for retail investors.
The aforementioned NAV division and simultaneous Share Split will be carried out on 2nd July 2025 (the "Effective Date"). A notice will be published on the website of the ICAV, www.waystone.com, on or around the Effective Date confirming the implementation of the above.
Fees or costs incurred by the Share Split will be borne by the Investment Manager.
GeneralInformation

Shareholders who subscribe for Shares in the Sub-Fund on the primary market and who do not agree with the Share Split, are entitled to redeem their Shares in the Sub-Fund in accordance with the Prospectus until 3.00 p.m. (Irish time) on 2nd July 2025.
Please note that the ICAV does not charge any redemption fee for the sale of Shares in the secondary market. Orders to sell Shares through a stock exchange can be placed via an authorised intermediary or stockbroker.
Shareholders should note that orders in the secondary market may incur costs over which the ICAV has no control and to which the above exemption on redemption charges does not apply.
Shareholders who have any queries or to whom any of the above is not clear should seek advice from their stockbroker, bank manager, legal adviser, accountant or other independent financial advisor.
