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).
