THIS IS AN ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE MSCI GLOBAL STANDARD INDEXES

REMINDER ON THE RECLASSIFICATION OF THE MSCI LEBANON INDEX TO STANDALONE MARKET STATUS

As previously announced, MSCI will reclassify the MSCI Lebanon Indexes from Frontier Market to Standalone Market status in one step, coinciding with the February 2021 Quarterly Index Review (QIR). In order to facilitate index replicability at the time of the reclassification, MSCI will delete each Lebanese security from the MSCI Frontier Markets Indexes at a value 80% below its last traded price as of the close of February 26, 2021.

This price adjustment for the Lebanese securities will be reflected in the price performance of the MSCI Frontier Markets Index and other related indexes containing these securities at the close of February 26, 2021.
