The methodology used by SAM to identify the investment risk level of each Fund within the Stone Mutual Funds is in accordance with the standardized Risk Classification Methodology mandated by the Canadian Securities Administrator. SAM reviews the risk rating for each Fund at a minimum on an annual basis, as well as when a Fund undergoes a material change. These changes are the result of an annual review and are not the result of any changes to the investment objectives, strategies or management of the Stone Mutual Funds. A summary of this methodology and the investment objectives and strategies of each Fund can be found in the Fund's prospectus, which is expected to become available on or about June 30, 2019.
