Without prejudice to Regulation (EU) No 909/2014 and Directive 2014/65/EU, operators of DLT market infrastructures shall cooperate with the competent authorities. In particular, operators of DLT market infrastructures shall notify their competent authorities upon becoming aware of any of the following matters, without delay: any proposed material change to their business plan, including changes in relation to critical staff, the rules of the DLT market infrastructure and the legal terms; any evidence of unauthorised access, material malfunctioning, loss, cyber-attacks or other cyber-threats, fraud, theft or other serious malpractice suffered by the operator of the DLT market infrastructure; any material change to the information provided to the competent authority; any technical or operational difficulties in performing the activities or providing the services that are subject to the specific permission, including difficulties related to the development or use of the distributed ledger technology and DLT financial instruments; or any risks affecting investor protection, market integrity or financial stability that have arisen and that were not anticipated in the application requesting the specific permission or that were not anticipated at the time when the specific permission was granted. Changes referred to in the second subparagraph, point (a) shall be notified at least four months before the change is planned, regardless of whether the proposed material change requires a change to the specific permission or related exemptions or conditions attached to those exemptions in accordance with Article 8, 9 or 10. Where notified of the matters listed in the second subparagraph, points (a) to (e), the competent authority may require the operator of the DLT market infrastructure to make an application in accordance with Article 8(13), Article 9(13) or Article 10(13), or may require the operator of the DLT market infrastructure to take corrective measures as referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article.
