Under securities legislation, the regulators do not make any of the information provided in the Personal Information Form public. The regulators collect the personal information in the Personal Information Form for the purpose of enabling the regulators to administer and enforce provincial and territorial securities legislation, including those provisions that require or permit the regulators to refuse to issue a receipt for a prospectus if it appears to the regulators that the past conduct of management or promoters of the Issuer affords reasonable grounds for belief that the business of the Issuer will not be conducted with integrity and in the best interests of its securityholders. You understand that by signing the certificate and consent in the Personal Information Form, you are consenting to the Issuer submitting your personal information in the Personal Information Form (the “Information”) to the regulators and to the collection and use by the regulators of the Information, as well as any other information that may be necessary to administer and enforce provincial and territorial securities legislation. This may include the collection of information from law enforcement agencies, other government or non-governmental regulatory authorities, self-regulatory organizations, exchanges, and quotation and trade reporting systems in order to conduct background checks, verify the Information and perform investigations and conduct enforcement proceedings as required to ensure compliance with provincial and territorial securities legislation. Your consent also extends to the collection, use and disclosure of the Information as described above in respect of other prospectus filings of the Issuer and the prospectus filings of any other issuer in a situation where you are or will be a:
(a) a director, executive officer or promoter of the other issuer, (b) a director or executive officer of a promoter of the other issuer, if the promoter is not an individual, or (c) where the other issuer is an investment fund, a director or executive officer of the investment fund manager. You understand that the Issuer is required to deliver the Information to the regulators because the Issuer has filed a prospectus under provincial and territorial securities legislation. You also understand that you have a right to be informed of the existence of personal information about you that is kept by regulators, that you have the right to request access to that information, and that you have the right to request that such

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 101 information be corrected, subject to the applicable provisions of the freedom of information and protection of privacy legislation adopted by each province and territory. You also understand and agree that the Information the regulators collect about you may also be disclosed, as permitted by law, where its use and disclosure is for the purposes described above. The regulators may also use a third party to process the Information, but when this happens, the third party will be carefully selected and obligated to comply with the limited use restrictions described above and with provincial and federal privacy legislation. Warning: It is an offence to submit information that, in a material respect and at the time and in the light of the circumstances in which it is submitted, is misleading or untrue. Questions If you have any questions about the collection, use, and disclosure of the information you provide to the regulators, you may contact the regulator in the jurisdiction in which the required information is filed, at the address or telephone number listed in
Schedule 3.

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 116 FORM 41-101F1 INFORMATION REQUIRED IN A PROSPECTUS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS (1) The objective of the prospectus is to provide information concerning the issuer that an investor needs in order to make an informed investment decision. This Form sets out specific disclosure requirements that are in addition to the general requirement under securities legislation to provide full, true and plain disclosure of all material facts relating to the securities to be distributed. Certain rules of specific application impose prospectus disclosure obligations in addition to those described in this Form. (2) Terms used and not defined in this Form that are defined or interpreted in the Regulation bear that definition or interpretation. Other definitions are set out in Regulation 14-101 respecting Definitions (chapter V-1.1, r. 3). (3) In determining the degree of detail required, a standard of materiality must be applied. Materiality is a matter of judgment in the particular circumstance, and is determined in relation to an item’s significance to investors, analysts and other users of the information. An item of information, or an aggregate of items, is considered material if it is probable that its omission or misstatement would influence or change an investment decision with respect to the issuer’s securities. In determining whether information is material, take into account both quantitative and qualitative factors. The potential significance of items must be considered individually rather than on a net basis, if the items have an offsetting effect. (4) Unless an item specifically requires disclosure only in the preliminary prospectus, the disclosure requirements set out in this Form apply to both the preliminary prospectus and the prospectus. Details concerning the price and other matters dependent upon or relating to price, such as the number of securities being distributed, may be left out of the preliminary prospectus, along with specifics concerning the plan of distribution, to the extent that these matters have not been decided. (5) The disclosure must be understandable to readers and presented in an easy-to￾read format. The presentation of information should comply with the plain language principles listed in section 4.1 of Policy Statement to Regulation 41-101 respecting General Prospectus Requirements (Decision 2008-PDG-0055, 2008-02-28). If technical terms are required, clear and concise explanations should be included. (6) No reference need be made to inapplicable items and, unless otherwise required in this Form, negative answers to items may be omitted. (7) Where the term “issuer” is used, it may be necessary, in order to meet the requirement for full, true and plain disclosure of all material facts, to also include disclosure with respect to persons that the issuer is required, under the issuer’s GAAP, to consolidate, proportionately consolidate
or account for using the equity method (for example, including "subsidiaries" as that term is used in Canadian GAAP applicable to

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 117 publicly accountable enterprises). If it is more likely than not that a person will become an entity that the issuer will be required, under the issuer’s GAAP, to consolidate, proportionately consolidate or account for using the equity method, it may be necessary to also include disclosure with respect to the person. (8) An issuer that is a special purpose entity may have to modify the disclosure items to reflect the special purpose nature of its business. (9) If disclosure is required as of a specific date and there has been a material change or change that is otherwise significant in the required information subsequent to that date, present the information as of the date of the change or a date subsequent to the change instead. (10) If an issuer discloses financial information in a preliminary prospectus or prospectus in a currency other than the Canadian dollar, prominently display the presentation currency. (11) Except as otherwise required or permitted, include information in a narrative form. The issuer may include graphs, photographs, maps, artwork or other forms of illustration, if relevant to the business of the issuer or the distribution and not misleading. Include descriptive headings. Except for information that appears in a summary, information required under more than 1 Item need not be repeated. (12) Certain requirements in this Form make reference to requirements in another regulation or form. Unless this Form states otherwise, issuers must also follow the instruction or requirement in the other regulation or form. These references include references to Form 51-102F2 of Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations (chapter V-1.1, r. 24). Venture issuers must include such disclosure in a preliminary prospectus or prospectus even if they are not otherwise required to file an annual information form under that regulation. (13) Wherever this Form uses the word “subsidiary”, the term includes companies and other types of business organizations such as partnerships, trusts and other unincorporated business entities. (14) Where requirements in this Form make reference to, or are substantially similar to, requirements in Form 51-102F2 of Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations, issuers may apply the general provision in subpart 1(d) of Form 51-102F2 of Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations. However, issuers must supplement this disclosure if the supplemented disclosure is necessary to ensure that the prospectus provides full, true and plain disclosure of all material facts related to the securities to be distributed as required under Item 29 of this Form. (15) Forward-looking information, as defined in Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations, included in a prospectus must comply with
section 4A.2 of Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations and
must include the disclosure described in section 4A.3 of Regulation 51-102 respecting

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 118 Continuous Disclosure Obligations. In addition to the foregoing, FOFI or a financial outlook, each as defined in Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations, included in a prospectus must comply with Part 4B of Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations. If the forward-looking information relates to an issuer or other entity that is not a reporting issuer in any jurisdiction, section 4A.2,
section 4A.3 and Part 4B of Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure
Obligations apply as if the issuer or other entity were a reporting issuer in at least 1 jurisdiction. (16) Marketing materials prepared in accordance with subsections 13.7(1) or 13.8(1) of the Regulation are the only documents that can be incorporated by reference into a long form prospectus.

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 192 FORM 41-101F2 INFORMATION REQUIRED IN AN INVESTMENT FUND PROSPECTUS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS (1) The objective of the prospectus is to provide information concerning the investment fund that an investor needs in order to make an informed investment decision. This Form sets out specific disclosure requirements that are in addition to the general requirement under securities legislation to provide full, true and plain disclosure of all material facts relating to the securities to be distributed. This Form does not prohibit including information beyond what the Form requires. Further, certain rules of specific application impose prospectus disclosure obligations in addition to those described in this Form. (2) Terms used and not defined in this Form that are defined or interpreted in the Regulation must bear that definition or interpretation. Other definitions are set out in Regulation 14-101 respecting Definitions (chapter V-1.1, r. 3). (3) In determining the degree of detail required, a standard of materiality must be applied. Materiality is a matter of judgment in the particular circumstance, and is determined in relation to an item’s significance to investors, analysts and other users of the information. An item of information, or an aggregate of items, is considered material if it is probable that its omission or misstatement would influence or change an investment decision with respect to the investment fund’s securities. In determining whether information is material, take into account both quantitative and qualitative factors. The potential significance of items must be considered individually rather than on a net basis, if the items have an offsetting effect. (4) Unless an item specifically requires disclosure only in the preliminary prospectus, the disclosure requirements set out in this Form apply to both the preliminary prospectus and the prospectus. Details concerning the price and other matters dependent upon or relating to price, such as the number of securities being distributed, may be left out of the preliminary prospectus, along with specifics concerning the plan of distribution, to the extent that these matters have not been decided. (5) The disclosure must be understandable to readers and presented in an easy-to￾read format. The presentation of information should comply with the plain language principles listed in section 4.1 of Policy Statement to Regulation 41-101 respecting General Prospectus Requirements (Decision 2008-PDG-0055, 2008-02-28). If technical terms are required, clear and concise explanations should be included. (6) No reference need be made to inapplicable items and, unless otherwise required in this Form, negative answers to items may be omitted. (7) The disclosure required in this Form must be presented in the order and using the headings specified in the Form. If no sub-heading for an Item is stipulated in this
Form, an investment fund may include sub-headings under the required headings.

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 193 (8) Where the term “investment fund” is used, it may be necessary, in order to meet the requirement for full, true and plain disclosure of all material facts, to also include disclosure with respect to the investment fund’s investees. If it is more likely than not that a person will become an investee, it may be necessary to also include disclosure with respect to the person. For this purpose, investees include entities that are consolidated, proportionately consolidated, or accounted for using the equity method. (9) If disclosure is required as of a specific date and there has been a material change or change that is otherwise significant in the required information subsequent to that date, present the information as of the date of the change or a date subsequent to the change instead. (10) If the term “class” is used in any item to describe securities, the term includes a series. (11) Where performance data is presented in the prospectus, annual compound returns must be presented for standard applicable performance periods of 1, 3, 5 and 10 year periods and the period since inception unless otherwise specified by the requirements of this Form. Performance data for periods of less than 1 year must not be presented. Hypothetical or back-tested performance data must not be presented. (12) An investment fund that has more than one class or series that are referable to the same portfolio may treat each class or series as a separate investment fund for the purposes of this Form, or may combine disclosure of one or more of the classes or series in one prospectus. If disclosure pertaining to more than one class or series is combined in one prospectus, separate disclosure in response to each item in this Form must be provided for each class or series unless the responses would be identical for each class or series. (13) A section, part, class or series of a class of securities of an investment fund that is referable to a separate portfolio is considered to be a separate investment fund for the purposes of this Form. An investment fund that has more than one class or series of securities referable to separate portfolios may combine disclosure of one or more of the classes or series in one prospectus if each class or series is managed by the same manager. If disclosure pertaining to more than one class or series is combined in one prospectus, separate disclosure in response to each item in this Form must be provided for each class or series unless the responses would be identical for each class or series.

The [insert name of plan] is a [insert type of plan] scholarship plan designed to help you save for a child’s post-secondary education.

You should be aware of 5 things that could result in a loss:

1. You leave the plan before the maturity date. People leave the plan for
   many reasons. For example, if their financial situation changes and they can’t afford their contributions. If your plan is cancelled more than 60 days from signing your contract, you’ll lose part of your contributions to sales charges and fees. You’ll also lose the earnings on your investment and your government grants will be returned to the government.
2. You miss contributions. If you want to stay in the plan, you’ll have to make
   up the contributions you missed. You’ll also have to make up what the contributions would have earned if you had made them on time. This could be costly.

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 257 If you have difficulty making contributions, you have options. You can reduce or suspend your contributions, transfer to another of our plans or to an RESP offered by a different provider, or cancel your plan. Restrictions and fees apply. Some options will result in a loss of earnings and government grants. [Insert if applicable - If you miss a contribution and don’t take any action within [insert the number of months] months, we may cancel your plan].
3. You miss or your child misses a deadline. This can limit your options
later on. You could also lose the earnings on your investment. Two of the key deadlines for this plan are:

• Maturity date – the deadline for making changes to your plan
  You have until the maturity date to make changes to your plan. This includes switching the plan to a different child, changing the maturity date if your child wants to start their program sooner or later than expected, and transferring to another RESP. Restrictions and fees apply.
• [Insert date] - the EAP application deadline
  If your child qualifies for an EAP, he or she must apply by [insert date] before each year of eligible studies to receive a payment for that year. Otherwise, your child may lose this money.

4. Your child doesn’t go to a qualifying school or program. For example,
   [State the types of programs or institutions that generally do not qualify for EAPs under the plan] don’t qualify for EAPs under this plan. [Insert, if applicable –Under this plan, fewer programs will qualify for an EAP than would otherwise qualify under the government’s rules for RESPs. See the Detailed Plan Disclosure for more information.] If your child will not be going to a qualifying school or program under this plan, you have the option to name another child as beneficiary, transfer to another of our plans or to an RESP offered by a different provider, or cancel your plan. Restrictions and fees apply. Some options can result in a loss of earnings and government grants.
5. Your child doesn’t complete their program. Your child may lose some or
   all of their EAPs if he or she takes time off from their studies, does not complete all required courses in a year or changes programs. [Insert if applicable - In some cases, your child may be able to defer an EAP for up to [insert number of years] year[s]]. [Insert, if applicable - Deferrals are at our discretion.] (3) For an individual or family scholarship plan, list no more than 5 situations that could result in a loss of earnings in the scholarship plan for subscribers or EAPs for the beneficiary. Briefly describe the losses that could result in these outcomes as well as some options to mitigate this loss. (4) State the following, in bold type:

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 258 If any of these situations arise with your plan, contact us or speak with your sales representative to better understand your options to reduce your risk of loss. INSTRUCTIONS (1) For an individual or family scholarship plan, the disclosure required in subsection (3) of Item 8 must include the following situations: a subscriber leaving a scholarship plan before it matures, a beneficiary failing to enrol in a qualifying school or program, and the subscriber or beneficiary failing to meet the scholarship plan’s key deadlines. (2) If the individual or family scholarship plan uses the concept of units paid for under a fixed contribution schedule, or otherwise requires subscribers to follow a prescribed
schedule for making contributions to the scholarship plan, the disclosure required in
subsection (3) of Item 8 must also include a situation in which a subscriber misses one or more contributions. (3) The disclosure in subsection (3) of Item 8 must use a similar format and structure as the disclosure required for group scholarship plans in section (2). Item 9 Cancellation Rate For a group scholarship plan, using the margin of the page, add a sidebar under the heading “What are the risks?”, and state the following using the same or substantially similar wording with the title of the sidebar in bold type:
Cancellation Rate
Of the last 5 beneficiary groups of the [insert name of group scholarship plan] plan to reach maturity, an average of [see the Instructions]% of the plans in each group were cancelled before their maturity date. INSTRUCTIONS (1) To calculate the average percentage as required under Item 9, do the following:
(a) for each of the last 5 beneficiary groups in the group scholarship plan to reach maturity, calculate the percentage of scholarship plans in the beneficiary group that were cancelled before their maturity date, and (b) calculate the simple average of the 5 percentages calculated pursuant to Instruction 1(a). (2) For a beneficiary group referred to in Instruction (1)(a), calculate the percentage of the scholarship plans in each beneficiary group that were cancelled before their maturity date by dividing x by y, where

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 259 x = the number of scholarship plans with the same maturity date that were cancelled before maturity, and y = the total number of scholarship plans with the same maturity date, including plans with the same maturity date that were cancelled before maturity. (3) For the purposes of the disclosure required under Item 9, a “plan that was cancelled before maturity” is a scholarship plan that is not eligible to receive a share of the EAP account as at the maturity date because the total contributions required by the subscriber’s contract have not been made by the maturity date. The number of scholarship plans with the same maturity date that did not reach maturity will be the difference between the total number of scholarship plans with the same maturity date and the number of scholarship plans that matured. (4) Subject to Instruction (6), the number of scholarship plans with the same maturity date consists of every scholarship plan sold to subscribers who selected the same maturity date, including scholarship plans that were cancelled or transferred before maturity. (5) For the purposes of calculating the percentage of scholarship plans in a beneficiary group that were cancelled before maturity, a scholarship plan whose subscriber changed the maturity date to an earlier date is considered to have the earlier maturity date and must be included in the calculations for the beneficiary group with the earlier maturity date. Similarly, a scholarship plan whose subscriber changed the maturity date to a later date is considered to have the later maturity date and must be included in the calculations for the beneficiary group with the later maturity date. (6) Do not include a plan in the calculation of x or y under Instruction (2) if the subscriber withdrew from their scholarship plan within 60 days of the signing the contract to open the scholarship plan and received back all of their contributions and fees paid. Item 10 Costs (1) Under the heading “How much does it cost?”, provide information, in the form of the following tables, about the fees and expenses of the scholarship plan. Introduce the tables using the following wording or wording that is the same or substantially similar:
There are costs for joining and participating in the plan. The following tables show the fees and expenses of the plan. [Insert, if applicable - The fees and expenses of this plan are different than the other plans we offer.] Fees you pay These fees are deducted from the money you put in the plan. They reduce the amount that gets invested in your plan, which will reduce the amount available for EAPs.

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 260 Fee What you pay What the fee is for Who the fee is paid to Sales charge [Specify amount] This is the commission for selling your plan [Insert name of entity] Account maintenance fee [Specify amount] [Specify the purpose of the fee] [Insert name of entity] [Insert if applicable - Insurance Premium] [Specify amount] This is for insurance that makes sure your contributions continue if you die or become totally disabled. [Insert name of entity] Fees the plan pays You don’t pay these fees directly. They’re paid from the plan’s earnings. These fees affect you because they reduce the plan’s returns, which reduces the amount available for EAPs. Fee What the plan pays What the fee is for Who the fee is paid to Administrative fee [Specify amount] This is for operating your plan. [insert name of entity] Portfolio management fee [Specify amount] This is for managing the plan’s investments. [insert name of entity] Custodian fee [Specify amount] This is for holding the plan’s investments in trust. [Insert name of entity] Independent review committee [Specify amount] This is for the services of the plan’s independent review committee. The committee reviews conflict of interest matters between the investment fund manager and the plan. [Insert name of entity] (2) If the sales charge listed in the “Fees you pay” table required by subsection (1) is deducted from contributions at a higher rate in the early period of participating in the scholarship plan, add a sidebar under the heading “How much does it cost”, using the margin of the page adjacent to the table titled “Fees you pay”, and state the following using the same or substantially similar wording with the title of the sidebar in bold type:

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 261 Paying off the sales charge If, for example, you buy one unit of the plan on behalf of your newborn child, and you commit to paying for that unit by making monthly contributions until your plan’s maturity date, then, based on how the sales charge is deducted from your contributions, it will take [insert number of months] months to pay off the sales charge. During this time, [insert percentage]% of your contributions will be invested in the plan. (3) Using the margin of the page adjacent to the table titled “Fees the plan pays” , add a sidebar under the heading “How much does it cost?”, and state the following using the same or substantially similar wording with the title of the sidebar in bold:
Other fees
Other fees apply if you make changes to your plan. See page [specify page number] in the Detailed Plan Disclosure for details. INSTRUCTIONS (1) The tables must only summarize the most common fees that (i) all subscribers to the scholarship plan are required to pay or (ii) the scholarship plan is required to pay, as applicable. Do not include the entire list of fees required to be disclosed under Items 14.2 and 14.3 of Part C of the Form, or any of the fees required to be disclosed under Item
14.4 and 14.5 of Part C of the Form. Each fee must be listed in a separate row of the
applicable table.
(2) If there are certain types of fees listed in the tables required under Item 10 above that are not payable, either by subscribers or the scholarship plan, in respect of the scholarship plan described in the Plan Summary, amend the tables as is necessary to reflect that fact. (3) If certain fees listed in the tables required under Item 10 above are normally combined into a single fee payable by either the subscriber or the scholarship plan as applicable, the tables may be amended as is necessary to accurately reflect that fact. (4) State the amount of each fee listed in the tables. In the table titled “Fees you pay” state the amount(s) in the column titled “What you pay”. In the table titled “Fees the plan pays” state the amount(s) in the column titled “What the plan pays”. The amount of each fee must be disclosed based on how the fee is calculated. For example, if a particular fee is calculated as a fixed dollar amount per unit, or a fixed amount per year, it must be stated as such. Similarly, if a fee is calculated as a percentage of the scholarship plan’s assets, that percentage must be stated. A statement or note that a fee is subject to applicable taxes, such as goods and services taxes or harmonized sales taxes, is permitted, if applicable. (5) For a group scholarship plan or other type of scholarship plan that normally calculates the sales charge payable as a fixed dollar amount linked to the amount of

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 262 contribution by a subscriber (i.e. x.x x$ per unit), in addition to stating the fixed amount of sales charge per unit as required under Instruction (3), the disclosure of the amount of the sales charge in the table titled “Fees you pay” in the column titled “What you pay” must also be expressed as a percentage of the cost of a unit of the scholarship plan. If the total cost of a unit of the scholarship plan varies depending on the contribution option or frequency selected, the percentage sales charge must be expressed as a range, between the lowest and the highest percentage of the unit cost the sales charge can represent, based on the different contribution options available to subscribers under the scholarship plan. This must be calculated as follows: (i) divide the sales charge per unit by the contribution option that has the highest total cost per unit, and (ii) divide the sales charge per unit by the contribution option that has the lowest total cost per unit. For example, if a scholarship plan calculates its sales charge as $200/unit, and the total cost per unit for a subscriber can range from $1000 to $5000 (based on the different options available to subscribers), the percentage range of the sales charge disclosed in the table would be 4% (200/5000) to 20% (200/1000). The disclosure in the table must also state that the exact percentage of the sales charge per unit for a subscriber will depend on the contribution option selected for contributing to the scholarship plan and how old their beneficiary is at the time they open the scholarship plan. (6) For the table titled “Fees you pay”, in the column titled “”What you pay” describe how the fee is deducted from contributions if the amount deducted from each contribution is not the same. For example, if deductions for sales charges are not made from each contribution at a constant rate for the duration of a subscriber’s investment in the scholarship plan or the duration for which contributions are required to be made if it is less than the scholarship plan’s duration, describe the amounts from contributions that are deducted for sales charges. (7) In both tables, in the column titled “What the fee is for” provide a concise explanation of what the fee is used for, using the same or substantially similar wording provided above in the tables. (8) In both tables, in the column titled “Who the fee is paid to”, state the name of the entity to which the fee is paid, e.g. the investment fund manager, the portfolio manager, the principal distributor or dealer, the foundation, etc. (9) For the table titled “Fees the plan pays”, the independent review committee fee must be disclosed as the total dollar amount paid in connection with the independent review committee for the most recently completed financial year of the scholarship plan. (10) Disclosure of insurance premiums in the “Fees you pay” table
is permitted only if the scholarship plan requires a subscriber to purchase insurance coverage in a jurisdiction in which the scholarship plan’s securities are being distributed. If the scholarship plan’s rules only require insurance coverage to be purchased by subscribers in some, but not all jurisdictions in which the scholarship plan’s securities are distributed, then include disclosure stating the jurisdictions in which the scholarship plan requires

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 263 subscribers to purchase insurance, under the heading titled “What the fee is for” in that
table.
(11) The disclosure required under subsection (2) of Item 10 must be based on the following assumptions: (i) the beneficiary is a newborn, (ii) the subscriber is purchasing one unit of the scholarship plan, (iii) the subscriber has agreed to a monthly contribution
schedule with contributions payable until the scholarship plan’s maturity date, and (iv) all
of the mandatory fees that are normally deducted from a subscriber’s contributions are deducted during the relevant period. (12) For the disclosure required in subsection (2) of Item 10, if the scholarship plan does not offer units but uses a similar method for deducting sales charges as is described under subsection (2) of Item 10, the wording may be amended as is necessary to properly reflect the scholarship plan’s features. (13) The “Other fees” sidebar required under subsection (3) of Item 10 refers to fees for specific transactions, such as changing a beneficiary, that are described in the table titled “Transaction Fees” in Item 14.4 of Part C of the Form. Item 11 Guarantees Under the heading “Are there any guarantees?”, state the following using the same or substantially similar wording:
We cannot tell you in advance if your child will qualify to receive any payments from the plan or how much your child will receive. We do not guarantee the amount of any payments or that the payments will cover the full cost of your child’s post-secondary education. Unlike bank accounts or GICs, investments in scholarship plans are not covered by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government insurer. Item 12 For More Information (1) Under the sub-heading “For more information”, state the following using the same or substantially similar wording:
The Detailed Plan Disclosure delivered with this Plan Summary contains further details about this plan, and we recommend you read it. You may also contact [insert name of investment fund manager] or your sales representative for more information about this plan.

Under the sub-heading “No social insurance number = No government grants, no tax benefits”, state the following using the same or substantially similar wording with the last paragraph in bold type:
We need social insurance numbers for you and each child named as a beneficiary under the plan before we can register your plan as a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP). The Income Tax Act (Canada) won’t allow us to register your plan as an RESP without these social insurance numbers. Your plan must be registered before it can:

• qualify for the tax benefits of an RESP, and
• receive any government grants.
  You can provide the beneficiary’s social insurance number after the plan is open. If you don’t provide the beneficiary’s social insurance number when you sign your contract with us, we’ll put your contributions into an unregistered education savings account. During the time your contributions are held in this account, we will deduct sales charges and fees from your contributions as described under “Costs of investing in this plan” in the prospectus. You will be taxed on any income earned in this account.

REGULATION IN FORCE FROM JANUARY 5, 2022 TO JANUARY 5, 2022 Regulation 41-101 January 5, 2022 PAGE 266 If we receive the beneficiary’s social insurance number within [insert the number of months - see Instruction (1)] months of your application date, we’ll transfer your contributions and the income they earned to your registered plan.

INSTRUCTIONS (1) State the maximum number of months after the application date of a subscriber’s plan the following which the investment fund manager will cancel the scholarship plan for failure to provide the social insurance numbers required for registering the scholarship plan as an RESP.

5.2. Description of Scholarship Plans
Under the heading “What is a scholarship plan?”, state the following using the same or substantially similar wording:
A scholarship plan is a type of investment fund that is designed to help you save for a beneficiary’s post-secondary education. Your plan must be registered as a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) in order to qualify for government grants and tax benefits. To do this, we need social insurance numbers for you and the person you name in the plan as your beneficiary. You sign a contract when you open a plan with us. You make contributions under the plan. We invest your contributions for you, after deducting applicable fees. You will get back your contributions, less fees, whether or not your beneficiary goes on to post￾secondary education. Your beneficiary will receive educational assistance payments (EAPs) from us if they enrol in eligible studies and all the terms of the contract are met. Please read your contract carefully and make sure you understand it before you sign. If you or your beneficiary does not meet the terms of your contract, it could result in a loss and your beneficiary could lose some or all of their EAPs.
