Rationale for Methodology Change
Solactive has determined that due to the consecutive nature of Chinese public holidays, the removal of Chinese public holidays as non-calculation days for the Affected Indices would allow clients to access index pricing without significant delays. With the index being priced on those dates, client experience would be improved.

The following Methodology changes will be implemented in the following points of the Index Guideline:
