OFFERING MEMORANDUM The information in this Offering Memorandum is correct only as of the date above.
STATUTORY AND CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS Securities legislation in certain of the provinces of Canada grants purchasers, or requires that purchasers be granted, rights of rescission or damages where an offering memorandum or any amendment to it contains a misrepresentation. For these purposes, a "misrepresentation" is an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact that is necessary in order to make any statement not misleading in light of the circumstances in which it was made. A "material fact" is a fact that significantly affects, or would reasonably be expected to have a significant effect on, the market price or value of the securities. These rights must be exercised by the purchaser within time limits prescribed by the applicable securities legislation. The following is a summary of the rights of rescission or damages available to purchasers under the securities legislation of certain of the provinces of Canada. These rights are in addition to and without derogation from any other rights or remedies that a purchaser might have at law, and may be subject to defences that the Funds or their representatives might have at law. Rights for Purchasers in Ontario If this Offering Memorandum, together with any amendment thereto, contains a misrepresentation, an investor in Ontario who purchases a security offered by this Offering Memorandum during the period of distribution shall be deemed to have relied on the misrepresentation, if it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase, and such investor shall have a right of action for damages against the Fund or, at the election of the investor, a right of rescission against the Fund (in which case the investor does not have a right of action for damages against the Fund), provided that: (a) no action may be commenced to enforce a right of action (i) for rescission more than 180 days after the date of the purchase; and (ii) for damages later than the earlier of (A) 180 days after the investor first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action, and (B) three years after the date of purchase; (b) the Fund will not be liable if it proves that the investor purchased the security with knowledge of the misrepresentation; (c) in an action for damages, the Fund will not be liable for all or any portion of such damages that it proves do not represent the depreciation in value of the security as a result of the misrepresentation; and (d) in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price at which the security was offered. Rights for Purchasers in British Columbia, Quebec, Newfoundland, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island If this Offering Memorandum, together with any amendment thereto, delivered to a purchaser of securities resident in British Columbia, Quebec, Newfoundland, New Brunswick or Prince Edward Island, contains a misrepresentation and it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase, the purchaser will be deemed to have relied upon the misrepresentation and will have a right of action, exercisable on notice given to the Fund not more than 90 days after the date of purchase, for damages or, alternatively, while still the owner of the securities, for rescission, provided that: (a) the Fund will not be liable if it proves that the investor purchased the securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation; (b) in an action for damages, the Fund will not be liable for all or any portion of such damages that it proves do not represent the depreciation in value of the securities as a result of the misrepresentation; and (c) in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price at which the securities were sold to the purchaser. Rights for Purchasers in Alberta In Alberta, if this Offering Memorandum, or any amendment thereto, delivered to a purchaser of securities contains a misrepresentation, and it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase, the purchaser will be deemed to have relied upon the misrepresentation and will have a right of action for damages and/or rescission against the Fund. The Fund will not be liable if it proves that the investor purchased the securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation. In an action for damages, the Fund will not be liable for all or any portion of the damages that it proves do not represent the depreciation in the value of the securities as a result of the misrepresentation. The amount recoverable under this right of action will not exceed the price at which the securities were offered. A purchaser may elect to exercise a right of rescission against the Fund, in which case the purchaser shall have no right of action for damages. No action shall be commenced to enforce the foregoing rights: (a) in the case of an action for rescission, more than 180 days after the date on which the securities were purchased; (b) in the case of an action for damages, more than the earlier of (i) 180 days from the day that the purchaser first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action, or (ii) one year from the date on which the securities were purchased. Rights for Purchasers in Saskatchewan In Saskatchewan, subject to certain limitations, in the event that the Offering Memorandum and any amendment thereto, or any advertising or sales literature used in connection therewith, delivered to a purchaser contains a misrepresentation and it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase, the purchaser will be deemed to have relied upon the misrepresentation and will have a right of action for damages against the Fund, every person who signed the Offering Memorandum or amendment thereto, every promoter of the Fund and every person who or company that sells securities on behalf of the Fund under the Offering Memorandum or amendment thereto. Alternatively, the purchaser may elect to exercise a right of rescission against the Fund, in which case the purchaser has no right of action for damages. In addition, where an individual makes a verbal statement to a prospective purchaser that contains a misrepresentation relating to the securities and the verbal statement is made either before or contemporaneously with the purchase of the securities, the purchaser has a right of action for damages against the individual who made the verbal statement.
