1 This annual management report of fund performance contains financial highlights but does not contain the complete annual financial statements of the investment fund. You can get a copy of the annual financial statements at your request, and at no cost, by calling , by writing to us at United Financial, 2 Queen Street East, Twentieth Floor, Toronto, ON, M5C 3G7 or by visiting our website at or SEDAR at Securityholders may also contact us using one of these methods to request a copy of the investment fund s proxy voting policies and procedures, proxy voting disclosure record, or quarterly portfolio disclosure. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND STRATEGIES International Equity Value Pool (the Fund ) seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity-related securities of international issuers which are believed to be undervalued relative to their perceived growth potential. Equity-related securities include convertible preferred shares, convertible debt obligations and warrants. The portfolio adviser will not invest in Canadian or U.S. issuers. The portfolio advisers use both value-based and price-driven approaches to allocate the investments between regions based on an on-going analysis of trends in international markets. When the portfolio advisers deem such investments appropriate, the assets of this Fund may be invested in short-term fixed income securities or cash equivalents. This Fund may use derivatives, but only as permitted by securities regulations. This Fund may also enter into securities lending transactions, repurchase transactions and reverse repurchase transactions, to the extent permitted by securities regulations, to earn additional income. RISK The risks of investing in the Fund remain as discussed in the prospectus. This Fund is suitable for investors who can tolerate medium risk, want an investment that is focused on generating capital growth and are planning to hold their investment for the medium and/or long term. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The net asset value of the Fund increased by $54.1 million to $375.3 million from December 31, 2016 to December 31, The Fund had net sales of $9.5 million for the year. The portfolio s performance increased assets by $44.6 million. Class W units returned 14.6%, after fees and expenses for the one-year period ended December 31, Over the same time period, the Fund s benchmark returned 16.9%. The benchmark is the MSCI EAFE Total Return Index. The performance of the Fund s other classes is substantially similar to that of Class W units, except for differences in the structure of fees and expenses. For the returns of the Fund s other classes, please refer to the Past performance section. The Fund underperformed its benchmark for the year. The fear that prevailed in the aftermath of the global financial crisis has been replaced by complacency in most markets and there are excesses in a growing number of them. Of the major asset classes, 38 of 39 monitored by Deutsche Bank delivered positive returns in The virtual currency, bitcoin, gained 1,331%, while Argentina successfully issued a 0-year bond. Stock market valuations have become stretched by historical measures, while interest rates, credit spreads and volatility hover near all-time lows. Holdings in health care, energy and financials weighed on relative returns, while materials, information technology and consumer staples generated the strongest performance. In health care, lackluster growth for Xtandi, a prostate cancer drug, contributed to underperformance for Astellas Pharma, although we expect this to pick up in coming quarters. Energy holdings Schlumberger underperformed due to the potential for a slower recovery in demand for global oilfield services due to lower oil prices. In financials, property and casualty insurance holdings Chubb and XL Group underperformed due to 2017 s natural disasters and worries that insurance pricing is unlikely to improve. Valuations remain compelling at this stage and each stock has its own bottom up driver to improve profitability, mostly through cost cutting and improved underwriting. In materials, Linde outperformed, moving closer to a merger with Praxair. Other materials names outperformed on the back of strong commodity prices. Technology holding Nintendo has benefited from the optimism surrounding sales of its new Switch Console, which continues to do well. In consumer staples, premium drink company Diageo continued to outperform, as it expects U.S. spirits (~50% profits) to continue to grow at over 4%. Heineken shares advanced on high and accelerating volume growth and coinciding margin expansion. During the 12-month period ending December 31, 2017, positions in Sandvik AB (Sweden, industrials), Glencore PLC (U.K., materials), ING (Netherlands, financials), SAP SE (Germany, information technology), Suzuki Motor Corp. (Japan, consumer discretionary), Experian PLC (U.K., financials), KB Financial Group Inc. (South Korea, financials) and Scor SE (France, financials) were sold when their shares traded near or at our estimate of intrinsic value. Philip Morris (Switzerland, consumer staples) was sold to make room for better ideas. New positions over the last 12 months include the following: Ambev SA is Brazil s foremost brewer (consumer staples), Zurich Insurance Group AB is one of the largest global insurance groups (financials), Swiss Re AG is one of the world s largest reinsurers (financials), Euronext NV operates derivatives and equity exchanges primarily in France and the Netherlands (financials), XL Group is a Bermuda-based property and casualty insurer (financials), Shire PLC is a U.K.-based biopharmaceutical company (health care) Babcock International Group PLC is a U.K. based engineering services company that serves defense and civil clients (industrials), Cielo SA is the leading electronic payment processor in Brazil (information technology), Yahoo Japan Corp., is the leading internet media franchise in Japan (information technology), Trivago NV, based in Germany, is a leading hotel meta-search company (information technology), CIG
2 Akzo Nobel NV, is one of the world s largest paint manufacturers (materials) and BT Group PLC is a leading communications company, serving phone, broadband, TV and mobile needs of the U.K. and customers in 170 countries (telecommunications). RECENT DEVELOPMENTS In the prevailing world of excessive structure and compartmentalization, we believe that flexibility and an absolute approach to value is essential. The risk embedded in the portfolio is primarily the byproduct of where we identify undervalued opportunities and we give close attention to the symmetry of possible outcomes. The resulting portfolio is positioned quite differently than popular indexes with below-market risk and underlying drivers that we believe are more company specific rather than tied to the macro environment. The investment environment in the second half of 2017 was led by cyclical and highly valued businesses in which we believe the downside risk outweighs the potential upside. Consideration of a company s and portfolio s margin of safety is more timely and relevant now than any time in recent years. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Manager and Trustee CI Investments Inc. is the Manager and Trustee of the Fund. CI Investments Inc. is a subsidiary of CI Financial Corp. The Manager, in consideration of management fees, provided management services required in the day-to-day operations of the Fund.

8 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (cont d) (1) This information is derived from the Fund s audited annual financial statements. (2) Management expense ratio is calculated based on expenses charged to the Fund (excluding commissions and other portfolio transaction costs) and is expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net assets for the year, including the Fund s proportionate share of any underlying fund(s) expenses, if applicable. The Effective HST tax rate is calculated using the attribution percentage for each province based on unitholder residency and can be different from 13%. (3) The trading expense ratio represents total commissions and other portfolio transaction costs expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net assets during the year, including the Fund s proportionate share of such expenses of any underlying fund(s), if applicable. (4) The Fund s portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund s portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 0% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the fiscal year. The higher a Fund s portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a higher turnover rate and the performance of a Fund. Portfolio turnover rate is calculated by dividing the lesser of the cost of purchases and the proceeds of sales of portfolio securities for the year, and excluding cash and short-term investments maturing in less than one year, and before assets acquired from a merger, if applicable, by the average of the monthly fair value of investments during the year. (5) This information is provided for the years ended December 31. *Footnotes for the tables are found at the end of the Financial Highlights section. (4) This information is provided for the years ended December 31.
