WisdomTree Multi Asset Issuer PLC
(the "Issuer")
Compulsory Redemption of WisdomTree EURO STOXX Banks 3x Daily Short
(ISIN: IE00BLS09P63) (the "Impacted Securities")
This notice relates to the Impacted Securities issued pursuant to the
Issuer's Collateralised ETP Securities Programme (the "Programme") and
its base prospectus dated 16 November 2020 (the "Base Prospectus"). The
holders of the Impacted Securities are referred to in this notice as the
"Impacted Securityholders". Terms used in this notice but not otherwise
defined bear the same meanings as used in the Base Prospectus.
1. Summary:
-- A Compulsory Redemption Event occurred on 8 March 2021 in respect
of the Impacted Securities.
-- In accordance with the Conditions, the Issuer is required to
designate a Compulsory Redemption Date for the Impacted
Securities.
-- This notice provides information on the Compulsory Redemption Date
and other important dates relating to the redemption of the
Impacted Securities.
2. Background:
The Issuer notes pursuant to Condition 8.6(A) of the Impacted Securities
that a Threshold Event Date occurred in respect of the Impacted
Securities on 16 November 2020. This Threshold Event Date occurred when
the Price of the Impacted Securities fell below 500% of the Principal
Amount of the Impacted Securities.
The Issuer further notes that on 8 March 2021 ("8 March Threshold
Event") the Price of the Impacted Securities fell below 200% of the
Principal Amount of the Impacted Securities; the 8 March Threshold Event
being more than 60 calendar days after the Threshold Event Date on 16
November 2020. Accordingly, a Compulsory Redemption Event has occurred
in accordance with Condition 8.8(B) of the Impacted Securities.
C. Designation of Compulsory Redemption Date
Impacted Securityholders are hereby notified that pursuant to Condition
8.8(B) of the Impacted Securities, the Issuer is designating a
Compulsory Redemption Date in respect of the Impacted Securities. The
Compulsory Redemption Date will be 22 April 2021. All other classes of
ETP Securities issued by the Issuer will continue to be priced and will
continue to trade in their normal manner.
Impacted Securityholders are not required to hold their Impacted
Securities until the Compulsory Redemption Date, Impacted
Securityholders are able to sell their Impacted Securities prior to and
on the last day of trading on European exchanges for Impacted Securities,
as specified in Section H (Indicative timeline), below. If Impacted
Securityholders do not sell their Impacted Securities prior to the last
day of trading on European exchanges, then Impacted Securityholders will
continue to be exposed to any movements in the price of the underlying
index, the applicable leverage and where relevant the applicable fees
and expenses, up until the Compulsory Redemption Date.
Impacted Securityholders are strongly advised to consult with their bank,
securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold their
Impacted Securities prior to the Compulsory Redemption Date,
particularly if they wish to sell their Impacted Securities in advance
of the Compulsory Redemption Date and in order to understand the process
and any costs associated with such sale.
D. Payment of Compulsory Redemption Amount
It is expected that the Compulsory Redemption Settlement Date in respect
of the Impacted Securities will be on Friday 30 April 2021 subject to
timely receipt of the Compulsory Redemption Amount from the Swap
Provider. Each Impacted Security will become due and payable on such
Compulsory Redemption Settlement Date at its Compulsory Redemption
Amount subject to liquidation of the underlying Swap Transactions. A
further announcement will be made following the Compulsory Redemption
Date to confirm the Compulsory Redemption Amount.
Please note that the Compulsory Redemption Amount payable in respect of
the Impacted Security may be paid in instalments in accordance with
Condition 8.10 (Payment of Redemption Amount or Compulsory Redemption
Amount in instalments) of the Impacted Securities (with each instalment
being an amount equal to the Daily Instalment Amount) over a period of
successive Currency Business Days commencing on and including the
Compulsory Redemption Settlement Date.
Settlement of the cash redemption proceeds due to Impacted
Securityholders holding Impacted Securities shall be paid in accordance
with Condition 11.2 (Payments) of the Impacted Securities. The payment
of the Compulsory Redemption Amount will be made in the Base Currency of
the Impacted Securities, which is Euros. Impacted Securityholders are
strongly advised to contact their bank, intermediary or securities
broker to confirm how and in what currency they will receive the
Compulsory Redemption Amount.
Payments of the Compulsory Redemption Amount will be made through
Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg. There may be delays in these
payments reaching Impacted Securityholders and Impacted Securityholders
are advised to contact their bank, securities broker or other
intermediary through which they hold their Impacted Securities for more
information.
E. For Authorised Participants
For Authorised Participants that have entered into Authorised
Participant Agreements with the Issuer, Agreed Redemption Orders
received (or deemed received) prior to 2pm London time on Friday 16
April 2021 will be valid and will be processed in the normal way. Agreed
Redemption Orders received (or deemed received) on or after 2pm London
time on that day will be invalid. Any Impacted Securities then
remaining in issue will be redeemed compulsorily in accordance with the
Conditions.
F. For all Impacted Securityholders
For all Impacted Securityholders, it is expected that the last day of
trading on European exchanges for the Impacted Securities will be on or
around 8 April 2021. Impacted Securityholders wishing to sell their
Impacted Securities before the Compulsory Redemption of these Impacted
Securities should do so by the close of trading on Thursday 8 April
2021.
Please note that there will be a gap between the last trading day on
exchange and the Compulsory Redemption Date. There will also be a
further gap between the Compulsory Redemption Date and the date on which
the Impacted Securityholders will receive their Compulsory Redemption
Amount. Impacted Securityholders are therefore strongly advised to
contact their advisors and brokers if they wish to sell their Impacted
Securities in advance to avoid being part of the compulsory redemption
process.
G. Actions to be taken
Prior to the last day of trading on European exchanges, Impacted
Securityholders can take two actions:
1. Contact their bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which
they hold their Impacted Securities to sell their Impacted Securities in
advance of the last trading day on exchange; or
2. Do nothing and be part of the Compulsory Redemption process and receive
payment on the Compulsory Redemption Settlement Date, as outlined in
Section H (Indicative timeline), below.
