The fund uses the book-entry only
system administered by CDS Clearing
and Depository Services Inc. with
respect to units and warrants. The
fund may also use the
non-certificated issue system or
another system administered by CDS.
A warrantholder may subscribe for
the resulting whole number of units
or any lesser whole number of units
by instructing the participant in
CDS participant holding the
subscriber's warrants to exercise
all or a specified number of such
warrants and forwarding the
subscription price for each unit
subscribed for in accordance with
the terms of the offering and the
warrant indenture to the CDS
participant which holds the
subscriber's warrants.
The subscription price is payable in
Canadian funds by certified cheque,
bank draft or money order drawn to
the order of a CDS participant, by
direct debit from the subscriber's
brokerage account or, by electronic
funds transfer or other similar
payment mechanism. All payments must
be forwarded to the appropriate
office of the CDS participant. The
entire subscription price for units
subscribed for must be paid at the
time of subscription and must be
received by the warrant agent prior
to the expiry date. If mail is used
for delivery of subscription funds,
for the protection of the subscriber
"certified mail return receipt
requested" should be used and
sufficient time should be allowed to
avoid the risk of late delivery. A
subscriber subscribing through a CDS
participant must deliver its payment
and instructions sufficiently in
advance of the expiry date to allow
the CDS participant to properly
exercise the warrants on such
subscriber's behalf. Warrantholders
are encouraged to contact their
broker or other CDS participant as
each CDS participant may have an
earlier deadline for receipt of
instructions and payment.
Subscriptions for units made in
connection with the offering through
a CDS participant will be
irrevocable and subscribers will be
unable to withdraw their
subscriptions for units once
submitted. Warrantholders who wish
to exercise their warrants and
receive units are reminded that
because warrants must be exercised
through a CDS participant, a
significant amount of time may
elapse from the date of exercise and
the date the units issuable upon the
exercise thereof are issued to the
subscriber.
Each warrantholder that subscribes
for all of the units to which such
holder is entitled pursuant to the
basic subscription privilege may, at
any time during the exercise period,
subscribe for additional units
pursuant to the additional
subscription privilege, if
applicable, at a price equal to the
subscription price for each
additional unit. Warrantholders must
exercise all of their warrants under
the basic subscription privilege to
be eligible for the additional
subscription privilege. To apply for
additional units under the
additional subscription privilege, a
beneficial holder of warrants must
forward their request to a CDS
participant prior to the expiry
date. Payment for additional units,
in the same manner as for units,
must accompany the request when it
is delivered to the CDS participant.
Any excess funds will be returned by
mail or credited to a subscriber's
account with its CDS participant
without interest or deduction.
Payment in full of the subscription
price must be received by the
warrant agent prior to the expiry
date, failing which the subscribe's
entitlement to such units will
terminate. Accordingly, the
subscriber must deliver payment and
instructions sufficiently in advance
of the expiry date to allow the CDS
participant to properly apply for
additional units under the
additional subscription privilege,
as applicable.
Each holder of warrants that
subscribes for units to which such
holder is entitled pursuant to the
basic subscription privilege may, at
any time during the exercise period,
subscribe for additional units
pursuant to the additional
subscription privilege, if
applicable, at a price equal to the
subscription price for each
additional unit. Holders of warrants
will not be required to fully
exercise all of their warrants under
the basic subscription privilege in
order to be eligible for the
additional subscription privilege.
To apply for additional units under
the additional subscription
privilege, a beneficial holder of
warrants must forward their request
to a CDS participant. Payment for
additional units, in the same manner
as for units, must accompany the
request when it is delivered to the
CDS participant. Any excess funds
will be returned by mail or credited
to a subscriber's account with its
CDS participant, without interest or
deduction. Payment in full of the
subscription price must be received
by the warrant agent prior to 5 p.m.
(Toronto time) on the expiry date,
failing which the subscriber's
entitlement to such units will
terminate. Accordingly, the
subscriber must deliver payment and
instructions sufficiently in advance
of the expiry date to allow the CDS
participant to properly exercise
warrants on such subscriber's behalf
and apply for additional units under
the additional subscription
privilege, as applicable.
The units are not registered under
the 1933 Act. The offering is made
in Canada and not outside of Canada.
The offering is not, and under no
circumstances is to be construed as,
an offering of any units for sale in
the United States or an offering to
or for the account or benefit of any
U.S. person or a solicitation
therein of any offer of units.
Accordingly, neither a subscription
for units pursuant to the basic
subscription privilege nor an
application for additional units
pursuant to the additional
subscription privilege will be
accepted from any person, or his
agent, who appears to be, or who the
fund has reason to believe is, a
national or resident of the United
States. Each CDS participant for a
unitholder resident outside of
Canada will, prior to the expiry
date, attempt to sell the warrants
allotable to such unitholder at the
price or prices it determines in its
discretion. Any proceeds received by
the CDS participant with respect to
the sale of warrants, net of
brokerage fees and costs incurred
and, if applicable, of Canadian tax
required to be withheld, will be
delivered by mailing cheques (in
Canadian funds and without payment
of any interest) as soon as
practicable to such unitholder whose
warrants were sold, at the
unitholder's last recorded address.
Amounts of less than $1 will not be
forwarded.
The warrants will be governed by the
terms of a master warrant indenture
dated Nov. 6, 2009, between the
manager, on behalf of the fund and
Computershare Trust Company of
Canada, as warrant agent. The
warrant indenture provides for
appropriate adjustments to the
warrants in the event of stock
dividends, subdivisions,
consolidations and other forms of
capital reorganization.
Within 30 days of the proper
exercise of a warrant, the fund will
pay a fee of 19 cents per warrant to
the dealer whose client exercised
the warrant.
The Toronto Stock Exchange has been
advised the fund has not retained
the services of any securities
dealer or broker to solicit
subscriptions for units and will not
pay any fee or commission for
soliciting such subscriptions.
