The Bourse - adjustment details: It is important to note that on the effective date mentioned above, all open orders on this option class will not be automatically modified to reflect the reverse split and will therefore have to be reentered into the Montreal Automated System (SAM) by the approved participants. The existing series of HGU option class will be transferred to the HGU2 option class representing the new deliverable. Actual series that do not have open interest will not be adjusted.

Numerical Example For a member holding a long put strike $8.00 position and considering that HGU Fund’s closing price on November 25, 2015 is $3.00, the intrinsic value of the option prior to the adjustment is: Intrinsic Value = $8.00 x 100 - $3.00 x 100 = $500.00 After the adjustment, the intrinsic value of the option will be: Intrinsic Value = New Strike Price x New Multiplier – New Underlying Price x New Deliverable = $40.00 x 20 - $15.00 x 20 = $500.00
