| (2) | The format of daily reports providing a complete breakdown of investment firms' and their clients' positions in commodity derivatives or emission allowances or derivatives thereof traded on trading venues and economically equivalent over-the-counter (OTC) contracts should be structured to support the monitoring and application of position limits under Article 57 of Directive 2014/65/EU. |

| (3) | Positions that have arisen as a consequence of buy and sell trades spread between different delivery dates or commodities or as a result of other complex strategies should be reported on a disaggregated basis unless the combination of products is traded as a single financial instrument identified by an ISIN and the positions held in it are subject to a specific limit. |
