RNS Number : 2495M WisdomTree Hedged Commodity Secs Ld 20 May 2022
WisdomTree Hedged Commodity Securities Limited
LEI: 21380027D6CN9S37B135
20 May 2022
WisdomTree Hedged Commodity Securities Limited (the "Issuer")
DE ISIN Transition
Dear Security holder
Background
Certain classes of securities of the Issuer (the Securities) are currently
issued on multiple ISINs. The Securities have primary ISINs beginning with JE
or GB (the Jersey ISINs) and secondary ISINs beginning with DE which are
issued under a Global Bearer Certificate (the DE ISINs). The Issuer has the
ability under the conditions of the products to merge the Jersey ISINs with
the DE ISINs.
It is proposed to merge the current DE ISINs with the Jersey ISINs (the
Transition) on or around 19 August 2022 (the Transition Date). The DE ISINs
which are linked to the Global Bearer Certificates will be deactivated and
replaced with the existing Jersey ISINs. Existing WKNs associated with the DE
ISIN (the DE ISIN WKN) will also merge into the WKNs associated with the
Jersey ISINs (the Jersey ISIN WKNs) and these can be used for future reference
and trading. Please refer to the table below for more details of the impacted
Securities.
Existing SEDOLs codes associated with the DE ISINs will be replaced by the
SEDOLs codes associated with the Jersey ISINs (the Jersey ISIN SEDOLs). The
Jersey ISIN SEDOLs will be informed through an RNS announcement in advance of
the Transition Date.
The Transition is automatically done within the Clearstream system and no
action is required from security holders.
The Transition will apply to all of the Securities which are listed in
Appendix I.
Key Implications of the Changes
(1) All existing holdings under DE ISINs will merge into the Jersey ISINs
on the Transition Date and these can be used for future reference and trading.
(2) The Securities will continue to trade on the same exchanges as they
currently are trading.
(3) The identifiers are largely used by platforms and data vendors, who
will be provided with updated information to ensure continuity for investors
in the Issuer's German listings.
(4) Investors will still be able to access all the trading venues and
platforms where the products are currently available but will use the Jersey
ISINs, the Jersey ISIN SEDOLs and the Jersey ISIN WKNs to reference the
products.
(5) You will continue to hold the same Securities following the
Transition, and your rights will not be affected.
(6) The price of the Securities will remain the same following the
implementation of the Transition.
(7) Investors who currently hold their Securities through a nominee or
broker account will not be impacted by the Transition and will continue to
hold a beneficial entitlement to the Securities in the same way that they hold
their entitlement.
(8) You will continue to hold, or have a beneficial entitlement to, the
same Securities following the Transition; there is no exchange of Securities
or sale of Securities as part of the Transition.
(9) The Transition is not expected to be a chargeable event for tax
purposes, however investors are advised to liaise with their tax advisors in
relation to the tax implications in individual circumstances.
