In this document, we, us, our and the Manager refer to 13 Asset Management L.P. and the Fund refers to Dynamic Total Return Bond Class. The term net asset value or net asset value per share in this document refers to the net asset value determined in accordance with Part 1 of National Instrument 1- Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure ( National Instrument 1- ); while the term net assets or net assets per share refers to total equity or net assets attributable to shareholders of the Fund as determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ). Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Certain portions of this report, including, but not limited to, Recent Developments, may contain forward-looking statements about the Fund and the underlying funds, as applicable, including statements with respect to strategies, risks, expected performance events and conditions. Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, or that include words such as expects, anticipates, intends, plans, believes, estimates, projects and similar forward-looking expressions or negative versions thereof. In addition, any statement that may be made concerning future performance, strategies or prospects and possible future action by the Fund is also a forward-looking statement. Forwardlooking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future general economic, political and relevant market factors, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity and capital markets, and the general business environment, in each case assuming no changes to applicable tax or other laws or government regulation. Expectations and projections about future events are inherently subject to, among other things, risks and uncertainties, some of which may be unforeseeable. Accordingly, current assumptions concerning future economic and other factors may prove to be incorrect at a future date. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or events could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by the Fund. Any number of important factors could contribute to these digressions, including, but not limited to, general economic, political and market factors in North America and internationally, such as interest and foreign exchange rates, global equity and capital markets, business competition, technological change, changes in government relations, unexpected judicial or regulatory proceedings and catastrophic events. We stress that the above mentioned list of important factors is not exhaustive. Some of these risks, uncertainties and other factors are described in the Fund s simplified prospectus, under the heading Risk Factors. We encourage you to consider these and other factors carefully before making any investment decisions. Forward-looking statements should not be unduly relied upon. Further, you should be aware of the fact that the Fund has no specific intention of updating any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, prior to the release of the next management report of fund performance, and that the forward-looking statements speak only to the date of this management report of fund performance. Results of Operations For the six month period ended at December 31, 1 (the period ), the Series A shares of the Fund returned 1.5. Fund returns are reported net of all management fees and expenses for all series, unlike the returns of the Fund s benchmark, which is based on the performance of an index that does not pay fees or incur expenses. Returns for other series of the Fund will be similar to Series A with any difference in performance being primarily due to different management fees, operating expenses and other expenses that are applicable to that particular series. Please see the Past Performance section for the performance of the Fund s other series. The Fund s broad-based benchmark, the FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, returned. during the same period. In accordance with National Instrument 1-, we have included a comparison to this broad-based index to help you understand the Fund s performance relative to the general performance of the market.

2 The Fund outperformed the benchmark for the period. Net long duration exposure added in October had a positive impact on performance as yields declined into the end of the year. Curve positioning was a contributor to performance as the long end of the curve steepened. The Fund was defensively positioned in credit with lower market risk than the benchmark, which helped as spreads widened. The Fund s underweight exposure to provincial securities was a positive contributor to performance as well. Some performance was attributable to currency as well as the Fund unhedged New Zealand and Australia income exposure in October and November, hedging these back towards the end of the year once they d been profitable. Fixed income markets experienced a period of volatility driven by numerous macroeconomic factors (geopolitical tensions, U.S. election concerns, trade agreement discussions, plunging oil & commodity prices, equity market volatility and investor outflows). The Canadian yield curve shifted downwards in response to economic data and expectations of slowing rate hikes. Corporate and provincial issues underperformed the market as credit spreads moved wider while federal bonds outperformed. The U.S. witnessed a similar story with slowing growth, declining inflation metrics and lower trade on the back of slower global economic growth and trade tariffs. Although U.S. employment remained robust, manufacturing output appeared to be slowing which was cause for concern about the year ahead. The last two months of the year saw a dramatic drop in the U.S. -year, falling to. on concerns of recession and Chinese and North American slowdown. The U.S. Federal Reserve continued on their path of Quantitative Tightening and raised rates three times by 5 basis points throughout the period, in June, September and December. While Canadian interest rates followed the general path of U.S. yields, they were more impacted by developments on NAFTA and commodity prices and ended the year relatively flat below.. The Bank of Canada raised rates two times by 5 basis points, once in July and once again in October. During the period the duration of the portfolio was actively managed, beginning at. years and finishing at 7.7 years, though having been as high as.1 years in November. The weighting to provincials was decreased to 1.1 partially to take profits before oil concerns shook prices in provinces like Alberta. The credit portion of the portfolio remained defensively positioned with higher overall liquidity than the benchmark. There were no material changes to sector weightings during the period. Towards the end of the year there was an increase in the weighting to Canada to 7.7 while the U.S. weighting had been lowered to.1. The remainder of the geographic weighting was held in global bonds including Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, the U.K., Luxembourg and Belgium. The Fund s net asset value decreased by 11. to $37.5 million at December 31, 1, from $9. million at June 3, 1. This change was composed of net redemptions of $3.1 million, cash distributions of $. million and investment performance of $. million. The investment performance of the Fund includes income and expenses which vary year over year. The Fund s income and expenses changed compared to the previous year mainly as a result of fluctuations in average net assets, portfolio activity and changes in the Fund s income earning investments. Certain series of the Fund, as applicable, may make distributions at a rate determined by the Manager from time to time. If the aggregate amount of distributions in such series exceeds the portion of net income and net realized capital gains allocated to such series, the excess will constitute a return of capital. The Manager does not believe that the return of capital distributions made by such series of the Fund have a meaningful impact on the Fund s ability to implement its investment strategy or to fulfill its investment objective. Recent Developments IFRS 9, Financial Instruments The Fund has adopted IFRS 9, Financial Instruments in the current reporting period commencing July 1, 1. The adoption of IFRS 9 has been applied retrospectively and does not result in a change to the classification or measurement of financial instruments, in either the current or prior period. The impact to the Fund will include additional disclosures related to changes to the classification of certain financial instruments to align with the classifications under IFRS 9. Adoption of the standard does not impact net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares. Related Party Transactions The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of Nova Scotia ( Scotiabank ). Scotiabank also owns, directly or indirectly, of Scotia Securities Inc. and Tangerine Investment Funds Limited, each a mutual fund dealer, and Scotia Capital Inc. (which includes ScotiaMcLeod and Scotia itrade), an investment dealer. The Manager, on behalf of the Fund, may enter into transactions or arrangements with other members of Scotiabank or certain other companies that are related or connected to the Manager (each a related party ). All transactions between the Fund and the related parties are in the normal course of business and are carried out at arm s length terms. The purpose of this section is to provide a brief description of any transaction involving the Fund and a related party. Management Fees The Manager is responsible for the day-to-day management and operations of the Fund.

Financial Highlights The following tables show selected key financial information about each series of the Fund and are intended to help you understand the Fund s financial performance for the periods indicated. The information on the following tables is based on prescribed regulations and as a result, is not expected to add across due to the increase (decrease) in net assets from operations being based on average shares outstanding during the period and all other numbers being based on actual shares outstanding at the relevant point in time. Footnotes for the tables are found at the end of the Financial Highlights section.
