Before or latest at 12:00 noon (“the Closing Time for Elections”)
on Monday 21 August 2023 (“the Closing Date for Elections”), a
holder of a SBRN03 Note must elect which one of the options
below the holder wishes to follow. The Holder of the Note may
either contact its financial advisor and request the financial
advisor to inform Standard Bank through its standing
communication channels about its clients’ elections or the
holder may elect themselves digitally via their broker’s CSDP
which of the following options they wish to follow:
1. Option 1: A holder of the SBRN03 Notes may elect not to
receive delivery of the ETFs on the Maturity Date (that is,
not to follow Option 2), but may elect to rather instruct
Standard Bank to sell the ETFs on behalf of the holder of
the Notes and pay the redemption amount of such sale of the
ETFs to the holder of the Notes on Friday, 25 August 2023
(“the Maturity Date”) to the account of the holder of the
Notes. If Standard Bank receives no notice from either the
holder’s Independent Financial Advisor or the holder does
not digitally elect Option 2 before or at 12:00 noon on
Monday 21 August 2023, Standard Bank will assume that the
holder had elected Option 1 (which is the default election)
that is, that the holder had instructed Standard Bank to
sell the ETFs on behalf of such holder and make payment of
the proceeds of the sale of such ETFs to the account of such
holder on Friday 25 August 2023 (“the Maturity Date”).
2. Option 2: A holder of the Notes may elect to receive delivery
of 1nVest Property ETFs (ETFSAP) with ISIN:ZAE000279238,
which the relevant holder bought on the Trade Date of the
Notes adjusted to be equal to the redemption value of the
Notes. The ETFs will be delivered to such holder on Friday
25 August 2023 (“the Maturity Date”).
After the payment of the sale proceeds of the ETFs (Option 1)
on Friday 25 August 2023 to holders who elected Option 1,
(which is the default election), or delivery of the ETFs on
Friday 25 August 2023 to holders who elected Option 2, the
Notes (SBRN03) will be de-listed from the JSE on
Monday 28 August 2023.
