¹ The annual management fees are based on the average daily net asset value of the applicable NBI Fund. Management fees, plus applicable taxes, will be accrued daily and paid monthly.

Each of the NBI Funds’ investment objective is to provide current income and preserve capital over a predetermined period. Each fund invests, directly or indirectly through investments in securities of other mutual funds, in portfolios comprised primarily of investment-grade bonds of North American companies with an effective maturity date. As target maturity funds, the NBI Funds have a predetermined, specified lifespan. Therefore, it is anticipated that the bonds held in these NBI Funds will mature the same year as they are expected to terminate.
