Change of Name

The Issuer announces that with effect from 26 September 2019 its name will change to WisdomTree Commodity Securities Limited and the names of the Classic and Longer Dated Commodity Securities will be changed to include "WisdomTree" in place of "ETFS" and further changed for consistency across WisdomTree's range of products.

The Issuer has, by special resolution, resolved to change its name to "WisdomTree Commodity Securities Limited" with effect from 26 September 2019. The change of name takes effect when the Jersey registrar of companies issues a revised certificate of incorporation reflecting the new name. This is expected to be on 26 September 2019.

The Issuer has entered into an eighteenth supplemental trust instrument dated 31 July 2019 with the Trustee (the Issuer having provided to the Trustee a certificate that in its opinion to do so is desirable and not prejudicial to the rights of the Security Holders) under which the names of the Classic and Longer Dated Commodity Securities then in issue will be changed as follows:
