Investment Objectives

The Fund’s objectives are to (a) pay monthly distributions to unitholders, (b) outperform the S&P/TSX Composite High Dividend Index or any other index selected in accordance with the declaration of trust governing the Fund (the “Index”), and (c) return to unitholders upon the termination of the Fund at least the original subscription price of the units from the initial public offering of the Fund (being $10.00 per unit).

Investment Strategy

The Fund may invest in (i) a diversified portfolio of securities which may consist of securities of issuers that are constituents of the Index in the same proportion, to the extent possible, as they comprise the Index (the “Index Portfolio”), and (ii) a diversified portfolio of securities that is actively managed by the Investment Advisor, which may be comprised of securities of issuers that are included in the Index and securities of other issuers, as permitted by NI 81-102.
