Result of the Vote in Respect of the Proposed Change in the Underlying Index of the Satrix Resi ETF Portfolio
SATRIX COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT SCHEME
SATRIX RESI PORTFOLIO
JSE Code: STXRES
ISIN: ZAE000078622
("Satrix Resi" or the "ETF")
A portfolio in the Satrix Collective Investment Scheme, registered
as such in terms of the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act,
45 of 2002
RESULT OF THE VOTE IN RESPECT OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE IN UNDERLYING
INDEX OF THE SATRIX RESI ETF PORTFOLIO
Holders of Satrix Resi securities are referred to the circular sent
out by the Satrix Collective Investment Scheme on 15 April 2015
(“the Circular”) regarding the proposed change of the underlying
index which the Satrix Resi tracks.
Background to the change in underlying index
Stipulations of Board Notice 90 (“BN 90”) of the Collective
Investment Scheme Control Act, 2002 (“CISCA”) included conditions
and limits in which securities may be included in a portfolio.
In terms of section 3 (10) of BN 90, a manager may include in any
index tracking portfolio (such as the Satrix RESI ETF Portfolio)
securities issued by a company in the index, but limited to:
1. Up to 120% of that company’s weighting in the relevant index
and,
2. The weighting of the securities in a particular company are
subject to a maximum of 35% of the total market value of the
portfolio (“35% Weighting Rule”).
The Satrix RESI ETF Portfolio is therefore in breach of the 35%
Weighting Rule as described in BN 90 and evidenced by the
representation of BHP Billiton Plc. An exemption was obtained from
the Financial Services Board allowing the Satrix RESI ETF Portfolio
sufficient time to correct this breach.
In this regard, the JSE Limited has since developed an index which
captures the 35% Weighting Rule, namely the FTSE/JSE Capped Resource
10 Index.
The purpose of the Circular was therefore to provide holders of
Satrix Resi securities with this background as well as to obtain
their vote in terms of whether they approve of the change allowing
the Satrix RESI ETF Portfolio to track the new FTSE/JSE Capped
Resource 10 Index.
In order for the change of index to be implemented, as per paragraph
59.1 of the deed, 25% of the holders of issued Satrix Resi
securities are required to vote in favour of the change.
Results of the vote
Holders of Satrix Resi securities have voted in favour of
implementing the change that the Satrix RESI ETF Portfolio will no
longer track the FTSE/JSE Resource 10 Index but will now track the
FTSE/JSE Capped Resource 10 Index.

Implementation of the change to the FTSE/JSE Capped Resource 10
Index
It is envisioned that the change to the FTSE/JSE Capped Resource 10
Index will occur effective Monday, 22 June 2015.
Holders of Satrix Resi securities are hereby informed that, once the
above change has been implemented, there will be no effect on either
the number of issued Satrix Resi securities, or the value of each
Satrix Resi security.
What will change is the index divisor which will only become known
after the close on Friday 19 June 2015.
A supplement to the offering circular, issued on 15 March 2006,
shall be made available on the website of Satrix Collective
Investment Scheme on www.satrix.co.za detailing the above changes.
