(1)Returns are for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and are unaudited. Inception date May 21, 2021. The table shows the Fund’s compound returns on a Class A Share for each period indicated, compared with the S&P Global Infrastructure Total Return Index ("Infrastructure Index"), and the MSCI World Index (“MSCI Index”) (together the “Indices”). The Infrastructure Index tracks 75 companies from around the world, chosen to represent the listed infrastructure industry and related operations. The index includes three distinct infrastructure clusters: energy, transportation, and utilities. The MSCI Index captures large‑ and mid‑cap representation across 23 developed markets countries and covers approximately 85% of the free float‑adjusted market capitalization in each country. The Fund is actively managed; therefore, its performance is not expected to mirror that of the Indices, which have more diversified portfolios and include a substantially larger number of companies. Furthermore, the Indices performance is calculated without the deduction of management fees, fund expenses and trading commissions whereas the performance of the Class A Shares is calculated after deducting such fees and expenses. Additionally, the performance of the Class A Shares is impacted by the leverage provided by the Fund’s preferred shares. The performance information shown is based on the net asset value per Class A Share and assumes that cash distributions made by the Fund during the periods shown were reinvested at net asset value per Class A Share in additional Class A Shares of the Fund. Past performance does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future.

(2)No distributions will be paid on the Class A Shares if (i) the distributions payable on the Preferred Shares are in arrears, or (ii) in respect of a cash distribution, after the payment of a cash distribution by the Fund the NAV per unit would be less than $15.00.

You will usually pay brokerage fees to your dealer if you purchase or sell shares of the investment funds on the TSX or other alternative Canadian trading system (an “exchange”). If the shares are purchased or sold on an exchange, investors may pay more than the current net asset value when buying shares of the investment fund and may receive less than the current net asset value when selling them.

There are ongoing fees and expenses associated with owning shares of an investment fund. An investment fund must prepare disclosure documents that contain key information about the fund. You can find more detailed information about the Fund in the public filings available at www.sedarplus.ca. The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns including changes in share value and reinvestment of all distributions and do not take into account certain fees such as redemption costs or income taxes payable by any securityholder that would have reduced returns. Investment funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently, and past performance may not be repeated.
