Structure • Increased initial exposure to the underlying funds. • Portfolio Series Growth Note, S5 - 135% initial exposure to Portfolio Series Growth Fund • Portfolio Series Income Note, S6 – 150% initial exposure to the Portfolio Series Income Fund • With the potential for up to 200% • In market conditions where the Funds perform well, additional exposure to the Funds may be achieved through a notional loan generating the potential for enhanced returns. • In market conditions where the Funds perform negatively, reduced exposure may dampen losses in an effort to allow participation in any subsequent recovery. • Low fees and interest charges help prolong Fund exposure by making the structure less prone to deleveraging or allocating to Bonds. • 100% principal protection at maturity regardless of the performance of the Funds or the amount of leverage applied. 13 How Does CI M.A.X. Asset Allocation Work? Constant Proportion Portfolio Insurance (CPPI) Structure Initial Purchase Initially, the assets will be fully allocated to Units of the Fund Fund Account Assets will reallocate according to the dynamic allocation strategy Bond Account • On the Issue Date, $135 per Portfolio Series Growth Note and $150 per Portfolio Series Income Note will be used to notionally purchase Units of the Funds. • The Deposit Notes will dynamically allocate between Units of the Funds in the Fund Account and Bonds in a Bond Account. The Portfolio will be rebalanced from time to time in accordance with pre-defined Portfolio Allocation Rules. • The leveraging or de-leveraging of the Fund Account will occur based on the “Distance” between the NAV of the Portfolio and the Floor Price (i.e., generally, the value of notional bonds maturing on the Maturity Date). • The dynamic allocation strategy provides increased initial exposure (with potential for 200% exposure) to the Funds while still providing 100% principal protection at maturity. • A reallocation will occur after a significant change in Distance has taken place. 14 “Distance” is the Benchmark for Re-balancing Value Dynamic leveraging strategy Basket NAV Distance Re Leveraging De Leveraging Value of Notional Bonds Principal Repayment Leveraging Initial Investment Time Maturity 15 An example of how CI M.A.X.
