2. clarifying whether the contracting party is acting on behalf of a beneficial owner and, if so, identifying the beneficial owner in accordance with § 11 paragraph 5. This includes, in cases where the contracting party is not a natural person, the duty to find out the ownership and control structure of the contracting party by reasonable means,
