The Fund invests in an approximately equal-weight, diversified portfolio of large-capitalization technology companies. The objectives of the Fund are to provide unitholders with (i) stable monthly cash distributions; (ii) the opportunity for capital appreciation; and (iii) lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would otherwise be experienced by owning securities of technology companies directly. The Fund seeks to hedge substantially all of its exposure to foreign currencies back to the Canadian dollar.

The Fund has generated a total return of 12.2% p.a. over the past 5 years, outperforming the S&P/TSX Composite Index by 4.1% p.a. over the period.^1,2

The Fund offers monthly distributions of $0.054 per unit or 6.2%% p.a., based on the October 10, 2017 market price.² The Fund also offers a distribution reinvestment plan ("DRIP") which provides unitholders with the ability to automatically reinvest their distributions and realize the benefits of compound growth of their investment.

The Fund is available for purchase on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol TLF.UN.
