Termination of Chi-X TraCRs

On 18 November 2021, Deutsche Access Investments Limited (DAIL) announced it will discontinue its Chi-X TraCR offering and terminate all Series of TraCRs on 21 February 2022.

What existing holders need to do?

Existing holders of Chi-X TraCRs have three choices leading up to the termination date:

1. Sell their Chi-X TraCRs on-market anytime up to 21 February 2022. Market makers are expected to continue providing buy/sell spreads as per current arrangements.

   DAIL will not charge a fee when TraCRs are sold on the Chi-X Market. Standard brokerage fees apply to all trades.

2. Prior to the close of market on 16 February 2022, submit a cancellation request directly to the Registrar to convert their Chi-X TraCRs to the underlying US share. A US brokerage account will be required. Their account/custodian details will need to be provided to Link Market Services.

3. Do nothing – After the termination date, DAIL will arrange for the sale of the underlying US shares, deduct any applicable tax, convert to AUD and pay the amount to the holder.

   Transaction costs will be incurred by DAIL in the process and be reflected in the final proceeds received. AUSIEX will not charge brokerage.
