By letter dated February 18, 2016 (the ‘‘Letter’’), as supplemented by conversations with the staff of the Division of Trading and Markets, counsel for WisdomTree Trust (the ‘‘Trust’’) on behalf of the Trust, WisdomTree Put Write Strategy Fund (the ‘‘Fund’’), any national securities exchange on or through which shares issued by the Fund (‘‘Shares’’) may subsequently trade, and persons or entities engaging in transactions in Shares (collectively, the ‘‘Requestors’’), requested exemptions, or interpretive or no-action relief, from Rule 10b–17 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (‘‘Exchange Act’’), and Rules 101 and 102 of Regulation M, in connection with secondary market transactions in Shares and the creation or redemption of aggregations of Shares of 50,000 shares (‘‘Creation Units’’). The Trust is registered with the Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (‘‘1940 Act’’), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund seeks to track the performance of an underlying index, the CBOE S&P 500 Put Write Index (‘‘Index’’). The Index is based on a passive investment strategy which consists of overlapping hypothetical investments in a single series of exchange-listed S&P 500 Index options (‘‘SPX Puts’’) over a money market account hypothetically invested in one and three-month Treasury bills. Specifically, the Index hypothetically writes at-the-money SPX Puts on a monthly basis, usually on the third Friday of the month (i.e., the ‘‘Roll Date’’), which match the expiration date of the hypothetical SPX Puts. All SPX Puts hypothetically invested in by the Index are standardized options traded on the Chicago Board Options Exchange. At each Roll Date, any settlement loss in the Index based on the expiring SPX Puts is financed by the Treasury bill account and a new batch of hypothetical at-the-money SPX Puts is sold. Revenue from their sale is added to the Index’s hypothetical Treasury bill account. On each Roll Date in March, June, September, and December PO 00000 Frm 00071 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 9231 (‘‘March quarterly cycle months’’), the proceeds from the hypothetical sales of the SPX Puts are invested in hypothetical three-month Treasury bills. On each Roll Date in a March quarterly cycle month, the three month Treasury bills hypothetically purchased in the prior March quarterly cycle month, and any one-month Treasury bills hypothetically purchased in the prior month are deemed to mature, and the proceeds are hypothetically invested in new three-month Treasury bills at the three-month Treasury bill rate. In other months, the revenue from the hypothetical sale of SPX Puts is hypothetically invested separately at the one-month Treasury bill rate, and where applicable, any one-month Treasury bills purchased in the prior month are deemed to mature and hypothetically invested in new one-month Treasury bills at the one-month Treasury bill rate. As stated above, all investments used to determine Index value are hypothetical. In order to track the Index, under normal circumstances, as described in the Letter, the Fund will invest not less than 80% of its assets in SPX Puts and one and three month U.S. Treasury bills. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets (in the aggregate) in other investments, as described in the Letter, that are not included in the Index, but which WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc. (‘‘Adviser’’) or Mellon Capital Management (‘‘Sub-Adviser’’) believes will help the Fund to track the Index and that will be disclosed at the end of each trading day (‘‘Other Assets’).1 The Fund’s investment strategy will be designed to write a sequence of onemonth, at-the-money, SPX Puts and invest cash and Other Assets targeted to achieve one- and three-month Treasury bill rates. The number of SPX Puts written will vary from month to month, but will be limited to permit the amount held in the Fund’s investment in Treasury bills to finance the maximum possible loss from final settlement of the SPX Puts. The Requestors represent, among other things, the following: • Shares of the Fund will be issued by the Trust, an open-end management investment company that is registered with the Commission; • Creation Units will be continuously redeemable at the net asset value (‘‘NAV’’) next determined after receipt 1 For example, the Requestors represent that there may be instances in which the Adviser or SubAdviser may choose to purchase or sell financial instruments not in the Index which the Adviser or Sub-Adviser believes are appropriate to substitute for one or more Index components in seeking to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Index.
