| Tax-Efficient Income |
| Depending on the
characteristics of income received by the trust, unitholders may receive a
portion of the distributions as a return of capital under Canadian tax rules.
The return of capital component reduces the adjusted cost base of the trust
units for purposes of calculating capital gains tax when the units are sold. A
portion of the distributions is deemed a return on capital and taxable as
income. |

opportunity to elect to reinvest monthly cash distributions made by the Trust
in additional units and to purchase additional units for cash through
participation in the Distribution Reinvestment Plan. |

| Distribution Enhancement |
| The trust can utilize
its loan facility when necessary to assist in earning distributable income, as
well as effecting market purchases of units and maintaining liquidity. The
Trust can borrow up to an amount not exceeding 33.3% of the value of the assets
within the portfolio. |
