Incorporation: The ETF is an unincorporated open-ended mutual fund trust established on January 13, 2012 under the laws of the Province of Ontario by an amended and restated Declaration of Trust.

Nature of Business: The ETF has been designed to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the Morningstar U.S Dividend Target 50 Index, net of expenses. The investment strategy of the ETF is to invest in and hold the securities included in the Morningstar U.S Dividend Target 50 Index. It is intended that at all times at least 90% of the foreign currency denominated assets held by the ETF will be hedged back to the Canadian dollar.

Common and
Advisor Class: The only difference between Common Units and Advisor Class Units is the Management Fee payable by the ETF due to the service fee payable by the Manager in respect of the Advisor Units. Each Class of the ETF will pay annual management fees to the Manager equal to an annual percentage of the net asset value ("NAV") of that class, calculated daily and payable monthly in arrears, plus, in respect of the Advisor Class Units, an additional amount calculated daily and paid as soon as practicable after the end of each calendar quarter, based on the NAV per Advisor Class Unit of the ETF, in each case, plus applicable taxes. The Management Fees of the ETF are 0.60% of the ETF plus an additional amount in respect of the Advisor Class Units of 0.75% of NAV per Advisor Class Unit for a total of 1.35%.

Conversion of Units: Unitholders of the ETF may convert Advisor Class Units into Common Units or Common Units into Advisor Class Units by delivering a notice and surrendering such Units by 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on any Trading Day and any such Units so surrendered shall be converted on such Trading Day. For each Advisor Class Unit so converted, a holder will receive a number of Common Units equal to the NAV per Unit of an Advisor Class Unit as of the Trading Day divided by the NAV per Unit of a Common Unit as of the Trading Day. For each Common Unit so converted, a holder will receive a number of Advisor Class Units equal to the NAV per Unit of a Common Unit as of the Trading Day divided by the NAV per Unit of an Advisor Class Unit as of the Trading Day.

Distributions: Cash distributions on Units of the ETF are expected to be made at least quarterly. As a result of the higher management fees on the Advisor Class Units, any such cash distributions on the Advisor Class Units are expected to be less than the distributions payable on the Common Units.

Initial Issuance of Units: Pursuant to the Prospectus, 400,000 Common Units and 100,000 Advisor Class Units of the ETF will be initially issued at a subscription price of $10.00 per Unit. Units of the ETF are being issued and sold on a continuous distribution basis.
