KRANESHARES ICAV
70 SIR JOHN ROGERSON'S QUAY DUBLIN 2
IRELAND
(an umbrella fund with segregated liability between sub-funds)
18 March 2026
Dear Madam / Sir
KraneShares Electric Vehicles & Future Mobility Screened UCITS ETF (the "Sub-Fund")
We are writing to you in your capacity as a Shareholder in the Sub-Fund (ISIN: IE000YUAPTQ0). Capitalised terms that are used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the prospectus of the ICAV dated 15 December 2025 (the "Prospectus").
We hereby give you notice of the decision of the Directors to terminate the Sub-Fund on April 24, 2026 (the "Termination Date") in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus, which permit the Directors to terminate a sub-fund where the Net Asset Value of the sub-fund does not exceed or falls below the minimum amount specified in the Prospectus.
As a result, please note that your Shares in the Sub-Fund will be redeemed automatically as at the Termination Date and at a Net Asset Value per Share which is calculated as of that date and that it is expected that your redemption proceeds will be paid within ten business days of the Termination Date. If any income event of the Sub-Fund is in receivable status at the Termination Date, it is the intention of the Directors that a further residual payment will be made to Shareholders once the relevant payment is received by the Sub-Fund. No Shareholder meeting or vote is necessary in connection with these matters and therefore no action is required by you. In the event that all Shares in the Sub-Fund are voluntarily redeemed before the Termination Date, the Directors may decide to close the Sub-Fund on an earlier date than the Termination Date.
Please note that the Sub-Fund will only bear the securities transaction costs associated with the termination and all other costs associated with the termination will be paid by the Investment Manager.
Please also note that the Directors will use their discretion not to accept any further subscription applications into the Sub-Fund between the date of this notice and the Termination Date.
In order to facilitate an orderly termination process, the Directors have also determined to keep the Sub-Fund open for redemption requests in advance of the Termination Date until April 20, 2026, which will also be the last date on which the Shares will be traded on the secondary market. You are therefore free to submit redemption requests in respect of your Shares in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus until this date. Redemptions will be suspended following this date and any requests received during this time will be processed as part of the automatic redemption of all remaining Shares as at the Termination Date.
Directors: Xiaolin Chen (UK), Feargal Dempsey, Paulo Iurcotta (Italy), Jonathan Krane (US) and Lorcan Murphy Registration number: C181441
Please note that to ensure a smooth termination from the date of this notice and, in particular closer to the Termination Date, the Investment Manager may deviate from the Sub-Fund's investment policy, as it realises positions in which the Sub-Fund has invested. This may result in the Sub-Fund holding more cash than it normally would and being less exposed to the Index than it would be under normal circumstances.
Please also note that you may be entitled to exchange your Shares in the Sub-Fund for Shares in another sub-fund of the ICAV prior to the Termination Date. Should you wish to exchange your Shares in the Sub-Fund for Shares in any other sub-fund of the ICAV, no charge will be payable for such exchange. Please contact [email protected] if you would like further information on any of the other portfolios or for details of the exchange process.
It should be noted that this termination applies to the Sub-Fund only and does not affect Shareholders in any other sub-fund of the ICAV.
Please do not hesitate to contact your usual KraneShares representative or your professional adviser in connection with any questions you may have concerning these matters.
