Currency Risk<br />

The table below indicates the currencies to which the Fund had exposure as at December 31, 2009 and 2008, on both its trading monetary and non-monetary assets and liabilities.<br />

Currency risk exposed holdings* Forward foreign exchange contracts Total Exposure As a % of Net Assets<br />

*Amounts include monetary and non-monetary items.<br />

As at December 31, 2009, had the Canadian dollar strengthened or weakened by 5% (2008 – 5%) in relation to all currencies, with all other variables held constant, net assets would have decreased or<br />

increased, respectively, by approximately $16 (2008 – $25,195). In practice, the actual trading results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.<br />

Interest Rate Risk<br />

As at December 31, 2009 and 2008, the interest rate risk is minimal given that the majority of the Fund’s financial instruments are non-interest bearing.<br />

Other Price Risk<br />

As at December 31, 2009, a 10% (2008 – 10%) increase or decrease in equity prices on the Canadian stock exchanges would have increased or decreased the Fund’s Net Assets by $238,423,320<br />

(2008 – $179,583,194). In practice, the actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.<br />

Credit Risk<br />

As at December 31, 2009 and 2008, the credit risk is minimal given that the Fund had no significant investments in debt instruments or derivatives.<br />
