Context: Die für den NAME OF FUND maßgebenden Vertagsbedingungen erhalten die aus der Anlage I (Allgemeine und Besondere Vertragsbeingungen) ersichtliche Fassung.


Another use in same doc:
Alles Weitere regeln die Richlinien ades Aufsichtsrates der NAME OF COMPANY, für den Anlageausschuß des NAME OF FUND (Anlage II), die Bestandteil dieser Veinbarung sind.


Are we talking about Investment I (which I'm thinking is the case) or Attachment/ Appendix I (which I don't have, since I've just got the bare agreement)?

Appendix
Explanation:
It looks very much like we are talking about "Anlage" in the same way as "Anhang" (I, II etc.), in which case Appendix is the correct translation

Thanks all. In US English, I've only ever seen the term appendix and never annex. (Confirmed by checking local lawyers.)

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks again. In the U.S. we say Appendix. Perhaps Annex is UK English?
