How risky is it?
The value of the Fund can go down as well as up. You could lose money.
One way to gauge risk is to look at how much a fund’s returns change over time. This is called “volatility”.
In general, funds with higher volatility will have returns that change more over time. They typically have a greater chance of losing money and may have a greater chance of higher returns. Funds with lower volatility tend to have returns that change less over time. They typically have lower returns and may have a lower chance of losing money.
Risk rating
Lysander Funds Limited has rated the volatility of this Fund as Low-to-Medium.
This rating is based on how much the Fund’s returns have changed from year to year. It doesn’t tell you how volatile the Fund will be in the future. The rating can change over time. A fund with a low risk rating can still lose money.
For more information about the risk rating and specific risks that can affect the Fund’s returns, see the Risk section of the Fund’s simplified prospectus.

A word about tax
In general, you’ll have to pay income tax on your share of the Fund’s earnings and on taxable capital gains you realize from redeeming your investment. How much you pay depends on the tax rates that apply to you, and whether or not you hold the fund in a registered plan such as a Registered Retirement Savings Plan or a Tax-Free Savings Account.
Keep in mind that if you hold your fund in a non-registered account, fund distributions of income and taxable capital gains are included in your taxable income, whether you get them in cash or have them reinvested.
How much does it cost?
The following tables show the fees and expenses you could pay to buy, own and sell Series O Units of the Fund. The fees and expenses – including any commissions – can vary among series of a fund and among funds. Higher commissions can influence representatives to recommend one investment over another. Ask about other funds and investments that may be suitable for you at a lower cost.
Sales charges
No sales charges apply when you purchase Series O Units of the Fund.
Fund expenses
You do not pay these expenses directly. They affect you because they reduce the Fund’s returns.

The Series’ management fee is negotiated on a case-by-case basis with Lysander Funds Limited, but will not exceed the management fee payable on Series A Units of the Fund, which is currently 1.50%.
