The investment risk level of an ETF and mutual fund (the "Fund")
is determined in accordance with a standardized risk classification
methodology, set out in National Instrument 81-102 Investment
Funds, that is based on the historical volatility of the Fund, as
measured by the 10-year standard deviation of the returns of the
Fund. If a Fund has less than 10 years of performance history, the
investment risk level of the Fund is calculated using the return
history of the Fund, and, for the remainder of the 10-year period,
the return history of a reference index that is expected to
reasonably approximate the standard deviation of the Fund.
No changes have been made to the investment objectives or
strategies of the Evolve Funds as a result of the changes to the
risk rating. A summary of the risk rating classification
methodology, and the investment objectives and strategies of the
Evolve Fund, can be found in the most recently filed prospectus for
the Evolve Funds, listed above.
