Fiera Capital Corporation Net income, end of each month, may include a significant return of capital component (automatically reinvested in additional securities, unless the investor chooses differently). Net income not distributed and capital gains, special distribution in December (must be reinvested). $500 (initial), $50 (additional), $25 (systematic) What does the fund invest in? The fund s investment objective is to generate interest income while minimizing the effects of interest-rate fluctuations. The fund invests directly, or through investments in securities of other mutual funds, in a portfolio composed mainly of fixed-rate Canadian bonds (either corporate, governmental or municipal) and/or preferred shares issued by North-American companies and enters into derivatives transactions to generate a floating rate of income. Floating-rate income can therefore be obtained by swapping, through the use of derivatives, the rate of a fixed-income security for the short-term floating rate in effect at the time of the swap less the fees payable to the counterparty in relation to the derivative transactions. The short-term floating rate used will correspond, depending on the securities covered, to the 3-month Canadian Dealer Offered Rate (CDOR) or the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The derivatives will be entered into with counterparties having a designated rating. It is expected that investments in foreign securities will not exceed approximately 40% of the fund's assets. The charts below give you a snapshot of the fund s investments on March 31, The fund s investments will change over time. Top 10 Investments (as at March 31, 2018) 1.

Funds with lower volatility tend to have returns that change less over time. They typically have lower returns and may have a lower chance of losing money. Risk rating NBI has rated the volatility of this fund as low. This rating is based on how much the fund s returns have changed from year to year.

A word about tax In general, you ll have to pay income tax on any money you make on a fund. How much you pay depends on the tax laws where you live and whether or not you hold the fund in a registered plan, such as a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) or a Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA). Keep in mind that if you hold your fund in a non-registered account, fund distributions are included in your taxable income, whether you get them in cash or have them reinvested. How much does it cost? The following tables show the fees and expenses you could pay to buy, own and sell units of the fund. The fees and expenses including any commissions can vary among series of the fund and among funds. Higher commissions can influence representatives to recommend one investment over another. Ask about other funds and investments that may be suitable for you at a lower cost. 1. Sales Charges There are no charges when you purchase your securities through NBI or National Bank Direct Brokerage (a division of National Bank Financial Inc.). Other representative's firm may charge you a fee. 2. Fund expenses You don t pay these expenses directly. They affect you because they reduce the fund's returns. As of December 31, 2017, the fund's expenses were 1.50% of its value. This equals $15.02 for every $1,000 invested. Page 2 of 3
