WISDOMTREE BRENT CRUDE OIL 3X DAILY SHORT SECURITIES
(ISIN: IE00BYTYHR65)
PROPOSALS FOR THE INTRODUCTION OF AN OVERNIGHT RESTRIKE MECHANIC, A
DISCRETIONARY INDEX CHANGE MECHANIC AND A NEAR ZERO PRICE MECHANIC
NOTICE OF CORRECTION AND CHANGE OF DATE IN RESPECT OF THE MEETING OF THE
ETP SECURITYHOLDERS CONVENED BY THE CIRCULAR DATED 06 OCTOBER 2020
THIS DOCUMENT IS IMPORTANT AND REQUIRES YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. If you
are in any doubt about what action you should take, you are recommended
to consult your independent financial adviser.
If you have sold or transferred all of your WisdomTree Brent Crude Oil
3x Daily Short Securities (the "Affected Securities") of Wisdomtree
Multi Asset Issuer Public Limited Company (the "Issuer"), please send
this document, together with the accompanying form of proxy, at once to
the purchaser or transferee or stockbroker, banker or other agent
through whom the sale or transfer was made, for onward transmission to
the purchaser or transferee.
The Issuer refers to a circular dated 6 October 2020 (the "Original
Circular"). The Original Circular purported to convene a meeting of the
holders of the Affected Securities at 9 a.m. on Thursday, 29 October
2020 (the "Original Meeting").
The Original Circular did not include a Notice of Meeting in respect of
the Original Meeting. The Issuer hereby announces a correction to the
Original Circular to correct this.
A corrected notice of meeting along with an updated form of proxy is
enclosed to this Notice of Correction. The meeting of the Affected
Securities will now be convened at 9.00 a.m. on 11 November 2020 in the
same manner and place as set out in the Original Circular (the
"Meeting").
The Meeting is being held to consider proposals for the introduction of
an overnight restrike mechanic, a discretionary index change mechanic
and a near zero price mechanic in respect of the Affected Securities.
Full details of the Proposal and Extraordinary Resolution are set out in
the Original Circular.
Holders of the Affected Securities are therefore directed to the
original notification posted to them on 6 October 2020, and also
available on the website of the Issuer, at
https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=aIfK7FJjEJpnrJnveZqdMhJ3-3-g79uIU5hi2VpQVXVxk6ekTsniYW1VWFc1CvApmA0tlgePT2XjErdPgE2mN1Kcc1HRLqhen9MNMqzDLFXXSOM0wRAGmJXhNg4ZZknb6GJnEuyHoDIhoMt4sxiq8dXYMlOEqQwKY8DAvFDKm00WobM2swMNKG2dlOZ91tRo84yS4CeOj7tmGCAnQ50oDsKV4Q-_iZzLpFmu8XzLrDSyZhtSEDwDKj8uXmihPgpMdGvb8io-F_9DlvSTGBV8P1HbWC4NgQzFg9vaOd730L0JwCJ1PtsChOVleml3FiMrQRSPeFJPElCr7ggzGcJO44UyNjK8InZCX8BgBrBLeveN_upLDqQDZS5vgAxzzMO45ojuPqA0ZTdAaOthVnUFBmlWMem4IhRK7K3RxbqABVo5vsjpsJ5EPlweytywWvuITJ9EAx2Wn3jvf2SmZv2XJxI96WbJO2o4LPqAsJxJiHY=

Holders of the Affected Securities have received a form of proxy by post
in respect of the Original Meeting (the "Original Proxy"). Holders of
the Affected Securities should note that a duly completed Original Proxy
deposited in respect of the Original Meeting will continue to be valid
for the Meeting unless previously revoked or suspended by a further form
of proxy prior to the Meeting.
The meetings being held in respect of other securities issued by the
Issuer convened for various times on Thursday, 29 October 2020 are
unaffected by this Notice of Correction and will proceed on the
timetables indicated in the Original Circular.
In accordance with normal practice, The Law Debenture Trust Corporation
p.l.c., as trustee, expresses no opinion as to the merits of the
proposals, the terms of which were not negotiated by it. It has however
authorised it to be stated that, on the basis of the information
contained in the Original Circular and in this document (which it
advises holders of Affected Securities to read carefully) it has no
objection to the form in which the proposals and Notice of Meeting are
presented to holders of Affected Securities for their consideration.
Holders of the Affected Securities will be notified of the outcome of
the Meeting shortly thereafter.
