TORONTO , July 21, 2025 /CNW/ - 1832 Asset Management L.P., as manager of Dynamic Funds (the " Manager "), today announced it has terminated Dynamic Active Energy Evolution ETF and completed the merger of Dynamic Active Retirement Income ETF into Dynamic Retirement Income Fund.

Termination of Dynamic Active Energy Evolution ETF

On March 18, 2025 , the Manager announced its intention to terminate Dynamic Active Energy Evolution ETF. The ETF was delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange (" TSX ") following market close on July 15, 2025 , and subsequently terminated effective July 18, 2025 (the " Termination Date ").

Unitholders of record on the Termination Date will receive final payments from the liquidation of the assets of the ETF, net of all liabilities and expenses, on or about July 23, 2025 , without any further action required by those unitholders. The proceeds will consist of the final cash distribution payable to unitholders immediately prior to the termination of the ETF and the final proceeds on the redemption of units held by unitholders.

The final distribution and proceeds per unit of the ETF are as follows:

Merger of Dynamic Active Retirement Income ETF into Dynamic Retirement Income Fund

On March 18, 2025 , the Manager announced the merger of Dynamic Active Retirement Income ETF  (the " Terminating ETF ") into Dynamic Retirement Income Fund (the " Continuing Fund "). The merger was completed after the close of business on July 18, 2025 (the " Merger Date ").

The units of the Terminating ETF were exchanged for ETF series units (" ETF Units ") of the Continuing Fund and the units of the Terminating ETF were delisted from the TSX following market close on July 18, 2025 . Today, the ETF Units of the Continuing Fund will be substitutionally listed on the TSX under the same ticker.

The Terminating ETF transferred all of its net assets to the Continuing Fund in exchange for ETF Units of the Continuing Fund having an aggregate net asset value equal to the value of the assets transferred to the Continuing Fund. Immediately thereafter, the Terminating ETF redeemed all of its outstanding units in exchange for ETF Units of the Continuing Fund on a one-for-one basis. This resulted in each unitholder of the Terminating ETF receiving the exact same number of ETF Units of the Continuing Fund it held in the Terminating ETF prior to the merger. The merger occurred on a tax-deferred basis.

As a result of the merger, the Continuing Fund now offers both mutual fund series units and ETF Units. The investment objective, risk rating, and the portfolio management team for the Continuing Fund remain unchanged. No actions are required by unitholders.

In connection with the merger, unitholders of record in the Terminating ETF on July 18, 2025 received the final distributions shown in the following table. The final distributions were reinvested in additional units of the Terminating ETF and do not include any cash distribution amounts. The additional units were immediately consolidated so that the number of units held by each unitholder following the distribution will equal the number of units held by the unitholder prior to the distribution.
