Don't buy this fund if you need a steady source of income from your investment. How much does it cost? 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. The following tables show the fees and expenses you could pay to buy, own and sell Investor Series 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 units 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, 2022, the fund's expenses were 2.49% of its value. This equals $24.90 for every $1,000 invested. Page 2 of 3
