Incorporation: The ETF is an open-ended mutual fund established under the laws of the Province of Ontario on January 15, 2016 pursuant to a master declaration of trust.
Manager and Trustee: Hamilton Capital Partners Inc.
Fiscal Year End: December 31
Nature of Business: The investment objective of the ETF is to seek long-term total returns consisting of long-term capital appreciation and regular dividend income from an actively managed portfolio comprised primarily of equity securities of banks and other deposit-taking institutions located anywhere around the globe.
Transfer Agent & Registrar: CST Trust Company at its principal office in Toronto.
Distributions and Automatic Reinvestment: It is anticipated that the ETF will make distributions to its Unitholders on a quarterly basis and such distributions will be paid in cash unless a Unitholder is participating in the Reinvestment Plan.

The ETF expects to distribute sufficient net income (including net capital gains) so that the ETF will not be liable for income tax in any given year. Additional distributions required to ensure the ETF is not liable for income tax, if any, are expected to be made annually at the end of each year where necessary. All such distributions will automatically be reinvested on behalf of each Unitholder in additional Units of the ETF at a price equal to the net asset value per Unit of the ETF on such day and the Units of the ETF will be immediately consolidated such that the number of outstanding Units of the ETF held by each Unitholder on such day following the distribution will equal the number of Units of the ETF held by the Unitholder prior to the distribution.
Sponsor: Not Applicable
Initial Issuance of Units: Pursuant to the Prospectus, 321,875 Units will be issued at a subscription price of $16.00 per Unit.
