New Issue: BMO lifts REX MicroSectors FANG inverse leveraged ETNs to $60 million

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., April 5 – Bank of Montreal priced $10 million of additional 0% BMO REX MicroSectors FANG+ index negative 3x inverse leveraged exchange-traded notes due Jan. 8, 2038 linked to the NYSE FANG+ index, total return, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The issuer priced an initial $50 million of notes on Jan. 22 at par but may sell a portion of the notes in the future at variable prices.

The underlying index is an equal-dollar weighted index designed to represent a segment of the technology and consumer discretionary sectors consisting of highly traded growth stocks of technology and tech-enabled companies. The index currently has 10 constituents.

The return on the notes is linked to a three times leveraged participation in the daily inverse performance of the index.

The payout at maturity will be a cash payment in dollars equal to the average of the closing indicative note values on each of the five trading days from and including Dec. 29, 2037, subject to a floor of zero.

The indicative note value on the pricing date was $50. On any subsequent business day, the closing indicative note value will equal (a) the deposit amount on that day minus (b) the short index amount on that day. However, if that calculation results in a value less than or equal to zero, the closing indicative note value will be zero. If the closing indicative note value is zero on any business day or the intraday indicative value falls to or below zero at any time on any day, then the indicative note value on all future days will be zero. If the indicative note value is zero, the cash settlement amount will be zero.

On the pricing date, the deposit amount was equal to $200. On any subsequent day until maturity, the deposit amount will equal (a) the closing indicative note value on the immediately preceding day times the daily deposit factor of 4 plus (b) the daily interest on that day minus (c) the daily investor fee on that day.

The daily interest is initially zero. On any day after the pricing date, the daily interest will equal the product of (a) the closing indicative note value on the immediately preceding day times (b) the daily deposit factor of 4 times (c) the daily interest rate, which is the U.S. Federal Funds effective rate minus 100 basis points, divided by (d) 365 times (e) the number of calendar days since the last business day.

The daily investor fee is initially zero. On any day after the pricing date, the fee will equal the product of (a) the indicative note value at the close of the immediately preceding day times (b) the 0.95% divided by (c) 365 times (d) the number of calendar days since the last business day.

On the pricing date, the short index amount was $150. On any subsequent day, the short index amount will equal (a) the closing indicative note value on the immediately preceding day times (b) the daily leverage factor of 3 times (c) the index performance factor on that day.

The index performance factor is initially 1. On any day after the pricing date, the index performance factor will equal (a) the index closing level on that day (or, if that day is not a business day, the closing level on the immediately preceding day) divided by (b) the index closing level on the immediately preceding day.

The notes are putable beginning Jan. 26, subject to a minimum redemption amount of 25,000 notes and a 0.125% redemption fee amount.

The notes are also callable in whole on or after July 25, 2018.

The notes are listed on the NYSE Arca under the ticker symbol “FNGD.”

BMO Capital Markets Corp. is the agent.
