The reinvested distributions are considered notional
distributions and are automatically reinvested in units of the Fund
at the time of the distributions and immediately consolidated so
that the number of units held by each investor, the outstanding
units of the Fund and the net asset value of the units of the Fund
do not change as a result of the capital gains distributions.
Unitholders of record on November 29,
2017 will receive the reinvested distributions. Investors
holding units outside of registered plans will have taxable amounts
to report and an increase in the adjusted cost base of their
investment.
The Fund is declaring reinvested distributions in anticipation
of the completion of the merger of the Questrade ETFs into the
WisdomTree Canada ETFs as detailed in the Questrade Wealth
Management Inc. announcements issued on November 10, 2017 and November 20, 2017.
