Investment Strategy: KSTR is an index tracking, passively managed UCITS ETF that seeks to track the performance of the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SS E) Science and Technology Innovation Board 50 Index (STAR 50 Index). The Index is comprised of the 50 largest companies listed on t he SSE Science and Technology Innovation Board (STAR Market) as determined by market capitalization and liquidity. STAR Market Highlights: •Facilitates the fast -tracking of private science and technology companies to an initial public offering (IPO). •Since its establishment in July 2019, the STAR Market has become one of the largest IPO markets globally1 and a premier listing venue for prominent Chinese unicorns (privately held startup companies valued at over $1 billion). •Recent increases in fund- raising activity on Chinese exchanges can largely be attributed to the STAR Market, which accounted for
approximately 62% of total capital raised through new IPOs across China’s Mainland A -Share market in 2025.2 •Potential inclusion in the SSE Composite Index and Shanghai -Hong Kong Stock Connect could result in greater flows for STAR Marke t securities. KSTR Features: •Exposure to companies poised to be China’s future leaders across industries that could represent the growth engine of China f or decades to come. •Innovation- driven science and technology companies in China that offer a potential source of uncorrelated, long- term growth. •Includes companies from industries such as new -generation information technology, biomedicine, new energy, and environmental protection. 21.YiCai Global, “China’s Year -Old Star Market Outshines the Venerable Nasdaq”, retrieved 30/June/2025. 2.Deloitte China, “2025 Review & 2026 Outlook For Chinese Mainland & HK IPO Markets”, Dec 18, 2025.

The securities or futures in that concentration could react similarly to market developments.

Important Notes Carefully consider the Funds’ investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Funds‘ full and summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting www.kraneshares.eu. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.Risk DisclosuresThe views and opinions expressed in this material are those of authors of the Krane Fund Advisors. These opinions have been g iven in faith, but are subject to change without notice. It is the responsibility of the investor to evaluate the accuracy, completeness and usefulness of any opinions, advice or other information provided. Instead, investors must buy and sell UCITS shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a stockbroker.UCITS ETF’s units / shares purchased on the secondary market cannot usually be sold directly back to UCITS ETF. Investors mus t buy and sell units / shares on a secondary market with the assistance of an intermediary (e.g. a stockbroker) and may incur fees for doing so. In addition, investors may pay more than the current net asset value when buying units / shares and may receive less than the current net asset value when selling them.UCITS shares are not individually redeemable with the issuing fund other than in large Creation Unit aggregations. In doing so, the investor may incur brokerage commissions and may pay more than net asset value (NAV) when buying and receive less than net asset value (NAV) when selling. The Net Asset Value per share is calc ulated in accordance with the “Determination of Net Asset Value” section of the prospectus, using the official closing price published by the relevant exchange. Shares are bought and sold at market pri ce which may or may not be consistent with NAV. Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance that a Fund will achieve its stated obj ectives. The Funds are subject to political, social or economic instability within China which may cause decline in value. Fluctuations in currency of foreign countries may have an adverse effect to domestic currency values. Emerging markets involve heightened risk related to the same factors as well as increase volatility and lower trading volume. The ability of the Fund to achieve its respective investment objectives is dependent, in part, on the continuous availability of A Shares and the ability to obtain, if necessary, additional A Shares quota. If the Fund is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to limited availability of A Share quota, the Fund could seek exposure to the co mponent securities of the Underlying Index by investment in other types of securities. The Fund is subject to political, social or economic instability within China which may cause decline in value. E merging markets involve heightened risk related to the same factors as well as increase volatility and lower trading volume. Fluctuations in currency of foreign countries may have an adverse effect to domestic currency values. The Fund may invest in Initial Public Offerings (IPOs). Securities issued in IPOs have no trading history, and information about the companies may be available for very limited peri ods. In addition, the prices of securities sold in IPOs may be highly volatile. In addition, as the Fund increases in size, the impact of IPOs on the Fund’s performance will generally decrease. Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility. The Fund’s assets are expected to be concentrated in a sector, industry, market, or group of concentrations to the extent that the Underlying Index has such concentrations. The securities or futures in that concentration could react similarly to market dev elopments. Thus, the Fund is subject to loss due to adverse occurrences that affect that concentration. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, investments in smaller companies typica lly exhibit higher volatility.
