Dear Shareholder

 

We are writing to you as a Shareholder in the Fund to inform you that the Board of Directors has, with regret, determined that, pursuant to Clause 10 Appendix II of the Memorandum & Articles of Association of the Company (the "M&A"), it is in the best interests of the Shareholders to terminate the Fund as of 21 September, 2016 (the "Termination Date").

 

The decision of the Board of Directors to terminate the Fund is based on notification from the Strategy Manager that the Strategy Manager will shortly discontinue the business of the management and maintenance of the Reference Strategy, such that it will no longer be available to be used by an exchange traded fund.

 

Therefore, in accordance with the above provisions of the M&A and the Prospectus of the Company, we hereby give notice of our intention, as Directors of the Company to:

i)          cancel the listing of the Fund and the right of the Fund to be traded on any relevant stock exchanges with effect from close of business on 19 September, 2016;
