FORM 81-106F1 CONTENTS OF ANNUAL AND INTERIM MANAGEMENT REPORT OF FUND PERFORMANCE,

AND COMPANION POLICY 81-106CP INVESTMENT FUND CONTINUOUS DISCLOSURE

AND RELATED AMENDMENTS

Introduction

We, the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA), are implementing amendments to:

• National Instrument 81-106 Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure (the Rule),

• Form 81-106F1 Contents of Annual and Interim Management Report of Fund Performance (the Form), and

• Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure (the Policy).

The Rule and the Form are together referred to as the Instrument. We are also implementing consequential amendments to:

• National Instrument 81-102 Mutual Funds and Companion Policy 81-102CP,

• Form 81-101F2 Contents of Annual Information Form, and

• Form 41-101F2 Information Required in an Investment Fund Prospectus.

The text of the amendments follow the appendices to this Notice.

The amendments have been made, or are expected to be made, by each member of the CSA. Provided all necessary approvals are obtained, the amendments will come into force on September 8, 2008.

In Ontario, the amendments and other materials required to be delivered to the Minister of Finance were delivered on June 20, 2008.

In Quebec, the Instrument is a regulation made under section 331.1 of The Securities Act (Québec) and the amendments must be approved, with or without amendment, by the Minister of Finance. The amendments will come into force on the date of their publication in the Gazette officielle du Québec or on any later date specified in the regulation.

Substance and purpose of the amendments

The Instrument, which came into force on June 1, 2005, harmonized continuous disclosure (CD) requirements among Canadian jurisdictions and replaced most existing local CD requirements. It sets out the disclosure obligations of investment funds for financial statements, management reports of fund performance, material change reporting, information circulars, proxies and proxy solicitation, delivery obligations, proxy voting disclosure and other CD-related matters.

The amendments primarily serve two purposes:

• to modify the requirements regarding the calculation of net asset value following the introduction of Section 3855 Financial Instruments -- Recognition and Measurement of the CICA Handbook; and

• to clarify or correct certain provisions of the Instrument.

Summary of Changes to Proposed Amendments

See Appendix A for a summary of the changes made to the amendments as originally published.

APPENDIX A

SUMMARY OF CHANGES TO PUBLISHED AMENDMENTS

The following summarizes the notable changes to the version of the materials published for comment on June 1, 2007.

The Rule

Section 3.2 Statement of Operations

• We have not proceeded with the proposed amendment requiring separate line item disclosure of revenue from repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions on the statement of operations.

Section 3.5 Statement of Investment Portfolio

• We have not proceeded with the proposed amendment to add a look-through requirement to the statement of investment portfolio for investment funds substantially invested in only one underlying fund. (However, we added guidance to the Companion Policy as noted below.)

Section 3.6 Notes to Financial Statements

• We removed the requirement to compare net assets and NAV at the fund level. The requirement is to disclose NAV per security and to explain each of the differences between this amount and net assets per security as shown on the financial statements.

Section 9.2 Requirement to File Annual Information Form

• We clarified this requirement by indicating that an investment fund must file an annual information form if it has not obtained a receipt for a prospectus during the 12 months preceding its financial year end.

Section 14.2 Calculation, Frequency and Currency (of Net Asset Value)

• We modified this amendment to clarify that the record keeping requirement allows the application of fair value principles to groups of similar securities.

The Form

Part B, Item 3.1 Financial Highlights (Trading Expense Ratio)

• We modified the proposed amendment to clarify that reasonable assumptions or estimates can be used when calculating a fund of funds' trading expense ratio.

Part B, Item 3.3 Management Fees

2. Form 81-106F1 Contents of Annual and Interim Management Report of Fund Performance is amended in Item 3 of Part B by

(a) striking out the sentence "This information is derived from the Fund's audited annual financial statements." at the end of the introduction in subsection 3.1(1);

(b) repealing the "The Fund's Net Asset Value (NAV) per [Unit/Share]" table in subsection 3.1(1) and substituting the following:

The Fund's Net Assets per [Unit/Share]{(1)}

Total Annual Distributions{(3)}	$_____	$_____	$_____	$_____	$_____
Net assets at [insert last day of	$_____	$_____	$_____	$_____	$_____
financial year] of year shown

{(1)} This information is derived from the Fund's audited annual financial statements. The net assets per security presented in the financial statements differs from the net asset value calculated for fund pricing purposes. [An explanation of these differences can be found in the notes to the financial statements./This difference is due to [explain].]

{(2)} Net assets and distributions are based on the actual number of [units/shares] outstanding at the relevant time. The increase/decrease from operations is based on the weighted average number of [units/shares] outstanding over the financial period.

{(3)} Distributions were [paid in cash/reinvested in additional [units/shares] of the Fund, or both].

(c) repealing the "Ratios and Supplemental Data" table in subsection 3.1(1) and substituting the following:

Ratios and Supplemental Data

{(1)} This information is provided as at [insert date of end of financial year] of the year shown.

{(2)} Management expense ratio is based on total expenses (excluding commissions and other portfolio transaction costs) for the stated period and is expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net asset value during the period.

{(3)} The trading expense ratio represents total commissions and other portfolio transaction costs expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net asset value during the period.

{(4)} The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio adviser manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the 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 high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(g) repealing subsection 3.1(13) and substituting the following:

"(13) Provide the closing market price only if the investment fund is traded on an exchange.";

(h) repealing the introduction to the "Financial & Operating Highlights (with comparative figures)" table in section 3.2 and substituting the following:

"An investment fund that is a scholarship plan must comply with Item 3.1, except that the following table must replace "The Fund's Net Assets per [Unit/Share]" table and the "Ratios and Supplemental Data" table."; and

(i) repealing the Instruction in section 3.3 and substituting the following:

"The disclosure must list the major services paid for out of the management fees, including portfolio adviser compensation, waived or absorbed expenses, trailing commissions and sales commissions, if applicable. Services may be grouped together so that commercially sensitive information, such as the specific compensation paid to a portfolio adviser or the manager's profit, is not determinable.".

(a) repealing subsection 4.1(3) and substituting the following:

"(3) Set out in the footnotes to the chart or table required by this Item the assumptions relevant to the calculation of the performance information, including any assumptions or estimates made in order to calculate the return on the short portfolio, if applicable. Include a statement of the significance of the assumption that distributions are reinvested for taxable investments."; and

TO NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 81-106

INVESTMENT FUND CONTINUOUS DISCLOSURE

AMENDMENT INSTRUMENT

1. Section 2.1 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by repealing subsection (1).

2. Part 2 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by adding the following after section 2.5:

"2.5.1 Disclosure of Investment Portfolio -- If an investment fund invests substantially all of its assets directly, or indirectly through the use of derivatives, in securities of one other investment fund, the investment fund should provide in the statement of investment portfolio, or the notes to that statement, additional disclosure concerning the holdings of the other investment fund, as available, in order to assist investors in understanding the actual portfolio to which the investment fund is exposed. The CSA is of the view that such disclosure is consistent with the requirements in the Handbook relating to financial instrument disclosure.".

3. Section 2.9 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is repealed.

4. Section 4.1 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by repealing the last paragraph of subsection (1) and substituting the following:

"The choices are intended to provide some flexibility concerning the delivery of continuous disclosure documents to securityholders. An investment fund can use any combination of the delivery options for its securityholders. However, the Instrument specifies that once an investment fund chooses option (b) for a securityholder, it cannot switch back to option (c) for that securityholder at a later date. The purpose of this requirement is to encourage investment funds to obtain standing instructions and to ensure that if a securityholder provides standing instructions, the investment fund will abide by those instructions unless the securityholder specifically changes them.".

5. Section 4.2 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by repealing the second paragraph and substituting the following:

"We recognize that different types of investment funds have different access to beneficial owner information (for example, mutual funds are more likely to have beneficial owner information than exchange-traded funds) and that the procedures in National Instrument 54-101 may not be efficient for every investment fund. We intend the provisions in Part 5 of the Instrument to provide investment funds with flexibility to communicate directly with the beneficial owners of their securities. If an investment fund has the necessary information to communicate directly with one or more beneficial owners of its securities, it can do so, even though it may need to rely on National Instrument 54-101 to communicate with other beneficial owners of its securities.".

6. Part 4 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by adding the following after section 4.4:

"4.5 Website Disclosure -- The Instrument does not specify the length of time that continuous disclosure documents must remain on an investment fund's website. In the CSA's view, the documents should stay on the website for a reasonable length of time, and at least until they are replaced by more current versions.".

7. Part 9 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by

(a) striking out the heading "PUBLICATION OF NET ASSET VALUE PER SECURITY" and substituting the heading "NET ASSET VALUE"; and

(b) by adding the following after section 9.1:

"9.2 Fair Value Guidance -- Section 14.2 of the Instrument requires an investment fund to calculate its net asset value based on the fair value of the investment fund's assets and liabilities. While investment funds are required to comply with the definition of "fair value" in the Instrument when calculating net asset value, they may also look to the Handbook for guidance on the measurement of fair value. The fair value principles articulated in the Handbook can be applied by investment funds when valuing assets and liabilities.

9.3 Meaning of Fair Value -- The Handbook defines fair value as being the amount of the consideration that would be agreed upon in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties who are under no compulsion to act. Accordingly, fair value should not reflect the amount that would be received or paid in a forced transaction, involuntary liquidation or distress sale.

9.4 Determination of Fair Value

(1) A market is generally considered active when quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency, and those prices reflect actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis.

(2) A market is not considered to be active, and prices derived from it may be unreliable for valuation purposes, if, at the time the investment fund begins to calculate its net asset value, any of the following circumstances are present:

• markets on which portfolio securities are principally traded closed several hours earlier (e.g. some foreign markets may close as much as 15 hours before the time the investment fund begins to calculate its net asset value)

• trading is halted

• events occur that unexpectedly close entire markets (e.g. natural disasters, power blackouts, public disturbances, or similar major events)

• markets are closed due to scheduled holidays

• the security is illiquid and trades infrequently.

If an investment fund manager determines that an active market does not exist for a security, the manager should consider whether the last available quoted market price is representative of fair value. If a significant event (i.e. one that may impact the value of the portfolio security) has occurred between the time the last quoted market price was established and the time the investment fund begins to calculate its net asset value, the last quoted market price may not be representative of fair value.

(3) Whether a particular event is a significant event for a security depends on whether the event may affect the value of the security. Generally, significant events fall into one of three categories: (i) issuer specific events -- e.g. the resignation of the CEO or an after-hours earnings announcement, (ii) market events -- e.g. a natural disaster, a political event, or a significant governmental action like raising interest rates, and (iii) volatility events -- e.g. a significant movement in North American equity markets that may directly impact the market prices of securities traded on overseas exchanges.

Whether a market movement is significant is a matter to be determined by the manager through the establishment of tolerance levels which it may choose to base on, for example, a specified intraday and/or interday percentage movement of a specific index, security or basket of securities. In all cases, the appropriate triggers should be determined based on the manager's own due diligence and understanding of the correlations relevant to each investment fund's portfolio.

9.5 Fair Value Techniques -- The CSA do not endorse any particular fair value technique as we recognize that this is a constantly evolving process. However, whichever technique is used, it should be applied consistently for a portfolio security throughout the fund complex and reviewed for reasonableness on a regular basis.

9.6 Valuation Policies and Procedures -- An investment fund's valuation policy should be approved by the manager's board of directors. The policies and procedures should describe the process for monitoring significant events or other situations that could call into question whether a quoted market price is representative of fair value. They should also describe the methods by which the manager will review and test valuations to evaluate the quality of the prices obtained as well as the general functioning of the valuation process. The manager should also consider whether its valuation process is a conflict of interest matter as defined in NI 81-107.".

8. Section 10.1 of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by

(a) striking out "of all types" in subsection (2); and

(b) repealing subsection (4) and substituting the following:

"While brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs are expenses of an investment fund for accounting purposes, they are not included in the MER. These costs are reflected in the trading expense ratio.".

9. Appendix B of Companion Policy 81-106CP Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure is amended by

(a) striking out the title "CONTACT ADDRESSES FOR FILING OF NOTICES" and substituting the title "CONTACT ADDRESSES";

(b) in the address for the Alberta Securities Commission, striking out "Attention: Director, Capital Markets" and substituting "Attention: Corporate Finance";
