The actual taxable amounts for 2019, including the tax characteristics, will be reported in early 2020.The annual reinvested capital gains distributions generally represent realized capital gains within the AGFiQ ETFs and will not be paid in cash, but will be reinvested in the form of a notional distribution and reported as taxable. A notional distribution is when the units from a reinvested distribution are immediately consolidated with the units held prior to the distribution. The number of units held after the distribution is therefore identical to the number of units held before the distribution. The unitholder’s adjusted cost base for the respective AGFiQ ETF may increase.Details regarding the final “per unit” cash and reinvested capital gains distribution amounts are as follows: Further information about the AGFiQ ETFs can be found at AGF.com.This information is not intended to provide legal, accounting, tax, investment, financial, or other advice, and should not be relied upon for providing such advice.Commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with an investment in exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
