The annual reinvested distributions are considered notional
distributions and are automatically reinvested in additional units
and immediately consolidated so that the number of units held by
each investor, the outstanding units of the Funds, and the net
asset value of the units of the Funds, do not change as a result of
the reinvested distribution. Investors holding units outside of
registered plans will have taxable amounts to report and an
increase in the adjusted cost base of their investment. The tax
characteristics for all year-end distributions will be reported in
early 2018.
As of January 5, 2018, these Funds
are considered financial institutions for tax purposes and as such,
all distributions will be considered income.
