Notice to ETP Securityholders of Leverage Shares 3x Long SK Hynix ETP (ISIN: XS3388190996) (the "Relevant Series")
Leverage Shares plc (the "Issuer") hereby gives notice of a certain upcoming modification to the Investment Strategy of the Relevant Series, as further detailed below.
The Investment Strategy of the Relevant Series is being amended so that the Leveraged Exposure of the Relevant Series may in addition be achieved by acquiring the SK hynix Inc. American Depositary Shares issued by Citibank, N.A. (the "SK hynix ADS") (the "Investment Strategy Amendment"). The SK hynix ADS is admitted to trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "SKHY".
Accordingly, the Reference Assets of the Investment Strategy applicable to the Relevant Series will be amended as set out in the table below:
Investment Strategy | Existing Reference Asset | New Reference Assets |
3x Long SK hynix Investment Strategy | SK hynix Inc. | 1. SK hynix Inc. 2. SK hynix Inc. ADS issued by Citibank, N.A. |
The Investment Strategy Amendment is intended to enable the Relevant Series to obtain its Leveraged Exposure through the SK hynix ADS in addition to the existing methods. The SK hynix ADS is denominated in US dollars and trades during US market hours, which is expected to improve the ability of the Issuer to maintain the exposure of the Relevant Series, having regard to the trading hours of the Korea Exchange and to the operational and regulatory requirements applicable to trading in securities admitted to trading on that exchange.
The Investment Strategy Amendment shall be effective as at 24 August 2026. In addition, the Base Prospectus will be updated as soon as practicable to reflect the Investment Strategy Amendment.
Capitalised terms used, but not defined, in this notice shall have the meaning given thereto in the Issuer's Base Prospectus as approved by the FCA on 9 June 2026 and by the Central Bank on 11 June 2026.
If you have any queries arising from this notice, please contact us at [email protected].
Yours sincerely
The Directors
