Purpose Investments Inc. Announces Termination of Purpose Energy Transition Fund
January 26 2024 - 7:30AM
Purpose Investments Inc. (“Purpose”), in its capacity as manager
and trustee of Purpose Energy Transition Fund (Ticker: CLMT) (the
“Fund”), announced today that it would terminate the Fund effective
on or about March 28, 2024 (the “Termination Date”).
The decision to close the Fund was driven primarily by the
Fund’s relatively low assets under management, which has made it
difficult to manage the Fund efficiently in accordance with its
intended investment objectives. As a result, the termination, in
the view of Purpose, is in the best interest of unitholders.
Purpose will redeem all of its issued and outstanding ETF units,
Series A units, Series F units and Series I units of Purpose Energy
Transition Fund (the “Units”).
The redemptions for Purpose Energy Transition Fund will be made
in accordance with the terms of the Fund’s master declaration of
trust dated October 7, 2013, as amended and restated from time to
time.
The redemption price payable for the Units will be an amount
equal to the net asset value per share of the applicable series or
class on the Termination Date and will be payable to unitholders on
or about April 2, 2024.
It is anticipated that the ETF units of Purpose Energy
Transition Fund will be voluntarily delisted from the Toronto Stock
Exchange on or about March 25, 2024 (the “Delisting Date”), at the
close.
Effective as of the market close on the date hereof, Units of
the Fund will no longer be available for purchase, including any
purchases made through a pre-authorized purchase plan. Holders of
ETF units of the Fund may continue to trade such Units until the
Delisting Date.
As stated above, the effective date of termination of the Fund
is expected to be on or about March 28, 2024. If you still hold a
position in the Fund at 4:00 pm EST on the Termination Date, your
position in the applicable Fund will be liquidated, with the
proceeds either deposited into your account or a cheque mailed
directly to you or to your dealer, nominee, or intermediary,
depending on your account registration. If you hold Units, there
may also be tax implications to any disposition of your holdings.
We strongly urge unitholders to contact their financial advisors to
discuss the financial and tax implications associated with the
redemption of their Units and the termination.
