IA CLARINGTON INVESTMENTS INC. TAX-FREE SAVINGS ACCOUNT – DECLARATION OF TRUST
Industrial Alliance Trust Inc. (hereinafter called the “Trustee”) is a trust company incorporated under the laws of Canada with its head office located at 1080 Grand Allée West, Quebec City,
Quebec, G1K 7M3. The Trustee hereby accepts, through a representative duly authorized to sign on its behalf, the mandate of trustee which requires it to act on behalf of the Holder of a
Tax-free Savings Account of IA Clarington Investments Inc. (hereinafter called the “Arrangement”).The Trustee herewith accepts that IA Clarington Investments Inc. acts as an agent in the
accomplishment of certain administrative duties for the Arrangement.

• the term “Contributions” has the same meaning as given in the Act;
• the term “Holder” means:
a) until the death of the Holder who entered into the Arrangement with the Trustee, the Holder which is identified as the Holder of TFSA in the application; and
b) at and after the death of the Holder who entered into the Arrangement with the Trustee, the Holder’s Survivor, if the Survivor acquires all of the Holder’s rights under this
Arrangement and an unconditional right to revoke any beneficiary designation;
• the term “Spouse” means spouse or common-law partner in accordance with the Act;
• the term “Survivor” means another individual who, immediately before the Holder’s death, is the Spouse of the Holder;
• the term “TFSA” means Tax-free Savings Account as referred to in the Act.
2. Registration - The Trustee shall request to file an election to register the Arrangement as a TFSA in accordance with the provisions of federal and provincial income tax legislation, their
regulations and their amendments (hereinafter called the “Law”). If the Trustee declines to act as trustee, the Holder or his/her agent will be notified in writing and any amounts received
by the Trustee as Contributions will be returned to the Holder or his/her agent. The Trustee agrees that IA Clarington Investments Inc. shall act as agent in performing certain administrative
tasks in respect of the Arrangement.
3. Exclusivity - The Trustee will hold Contributions accepted by it for the Arrangement, investments made with those Contributions and any income and capital gains realized in respect of
those investments in trust. This Arrangement is maintained for the exclusive benefit of the Holder determined without regard to any right of a person to receive a payment out of or under
this Arrangement only on or after the death of the Holder.
No individual other than the Holder or the issuer of the Arrangement has any rights under the Arrangement relating to the amount and timing of distribution and the investing of funds.
The Holder is solely responsible for the tax consequences that may result from his/her actions under this Arrangement.
4. Date of Birth and Social Insurance Number - The Holder must have attained the age required in accordance with the Act to make Contributions to the Arrangement. Evidence satisfactory
to the Trustee of the age of the Holder must be furnished at the time the Arrangement is entered into. The statement of the Holder’s birth date and social insurance number in the Application
is deemed to be a certification of its truth on which the Trustee may rely and the Holders undertaking to provide proof if requested by the Trustee.
5. Contributions - The Arrangement prohibits any individual other than the Holder from making Contributions under the Arrangement. The Holder may make Contributions to the Arrangement
from time to time in cash or securities which are acceptable to the Trustee in its sole discretion. The Trustee will also accept Contributions by way of a transfer to the Arrangement from any
source permitted by the Act. The Trustee may accept or for any reason refuse to accept all or any portion of a Contribution of cash or securities to the Arrangement. The Trustee shall hold
these Contributions in order to individually identify them with each Holder.

6. Excess Contributions - If, at any time in a calendar month, the Holder has an excess TFSA amount, as this term is defined under Part XI.01 of the Act, the Holder shall, in respect of that
month, pay a tax under this Part equal to 1% of the highest excess TFSA amount in that month.
However, the Trustee shall, upon written request from the Holder, make distributions, as this term is defined in the Act, to the Holder to reduce the amount of tax payable under Part XI.01 of
the Act and, where applicable, according to the provisions of the provincial legislation.
TFSA Application Form | November 2017 7
7. Unused Contributions - The unused TFSA Contributions can be carried forward to future years and are determined as stipulated in the Act.
8. Non-Resident - If, at a particular time, a non-resident Holder makes a Contribution under the Arrangement, the non-resident Holder shall pay a tax under Part XI.01 of the Act equal to
1% of the amount of the Contributions in respect of each month for the period determined in section 207.03 of the Act.
9. Investments - Contributions to the Arrangement will be invested, and reinvested from time to time, in the investments selected by the Holder in writing from time to time. In making his/her
investment selection, the Holder may select units of mutual funds managed by IA Clarington Investments Inc. or other investments acceptable to the Trustee in its sole discretion. In making
investments for the Arrangement, the Trustee will not be limited to investments authorized by legislation governing the investment of property held in trust. The Trustee will not provide
any investment advice regarding the purchase, retention or sale of any investment by the Arrangement and will not be held responsible for advice that the Holder may have
received from another party. Cash distributions received on investments held in the Arrangement will be invested in additional investments of the same type unless the Holder instructs
otherwise. In the absence of satisfactory investment instructions, the Trustee will invest cash in units of IA Clarington Money Market Fund.
10. Responsibility - The Holder is responsible for: (a) selecting investments for the Arrangement and assessing the merits of those investments or for obtaining investment advice; and
(b) ensuring that the investments held in the Arrangement are qualified investments for the Arrangement under the Act. The Trustee is not responsible for any of these matters or for any
investment or tax advice that the Holder may receive from advisors.
11. Transfers -
Subject to any restrictions under this declaration, the Holder may request the Trustee to:
a) transfer directly all or any part of the property held in connection with the Arrangement, or an amount equal to its value, to another TFSA of the Holder; or
b) transfer directly all or any part of the property held in connection with the Arrangement, or an amount equal to its value, to another TFSA, the Holder of which is the Spouse of
the Holder of this Arrangement, if the following conditions are satisfied:
i. the Holder and the Spouse are living separate and apart at the time of the transfer; and
ii. the transfer is made under a decree, order or judgment of a competent tribunal, or under a written separation agreement, relating to a division of property between the
Holder and the Spouse in settlement of rights arising out of, or on the breakdown of, their marriage or common-law partnership.
The Trustee will sell or transfer specific investments of the Arrangement to effect the transfer if instructed by the Holder in writing. In the absence of satisfactory written instructions, the
Trustee may sell or transfer any investments of the Arrangement selected by it in its sole discretion to effect the transfer and will not be liable for any resulting loss. The transfer of assets
will be made subject to any restrictions under the Act or the terms and conditions of the investments of the Arrangement.
12. Distributions - The Trustee may make a payment out of the Arrangement in satisfaction of all or part of the Holder’s interest in the Arrangement.
The investment income, including capital gains, earned in this Arrangement is not taxed in accordance with the Act.
13. Death of the Holder - At and after the death of the Holder and upon receipt of satisfactory evidence of his/her death, if the Survivor acquires all of the Holder’s rights under this
Arrangement and an unconditional right to revoke any beneficiary designation, the Survivor shall become the Holder of the Arrangement.
If the Holder wants his/her Spouse to become the Holder of the Arrangement upon his/her death as provided in the Act, the Holder should consult his/her legal counsel to
take the appropriate actions.
Subject to any applicable legislation, if the Survivor does not acquire all of the Holder’s rights under this Arrangement and an unconditional right to revoke any beneficiary designation
upon receipt of satisfactory evidence of the death of the Holder, the Trustee will hold the assets of the Arrangement for payment in a lump sum and the payment will be made to the legal
representatives of the Holder.
The account shall cease to be registered as a TFSA under the Act immediately before the death of the last Holder of the Arrangement.
14. Account - The Trustee will maintain an account of the Holder’s Arrangement recording: Contributions to the Arrangement; the name, number and cost of investments purchased and sold
by the Arrangement; distributions received by the Arrangement; withdrawals, transfers and expenses paid from the Arrangement; and the balance of the Arrangement. The Trustee will send
the Holder a statement of the account at least once a year.
15. Fees and Expenses - From time to time, the Trustee may charge the Holder or the Arrangement fees for its services and expenses. The Trustee is entitled to reimbursement for all
disbursements, expenses and liabilities (including taxes, interest, penalties, brokerage fees, custodial fees, investment advisory fees, administrative fees and similar expenses) reasonably
incurred by the Trustee in connection with the Arrangement. The Holder hereby authorizes the Trustee to deduct its unpaid fees, disbursements and expenses from the assets of the Arrangement
and for this purpose authorizes the Trustee to realize sufficient assets of the Arrangement selected in its sole discretion for payment and the Trustee will not be liable for any resulting loss.
If the Arrangement becomes liable for tax, interest or penalties under the Act or similar provincial legislation, the Trustee will realize sufficient investments of the Arrangement,
selected in its sole discretion, to pay the liability and the Trustee will not be liable for any resulting loss.
16. Delegation of Duties - Without detracting in any way from the responsibility of the Trustee, the Trustee may appoint agents including, but not limited to, IA Clarington Investments
Inc., and may delegate to its agents the performance of clerical, administrative and other duties under this declaration. The Trustee may employ or engage accountants, brokers, lawyers or
others and may rely on their advice and services. The Trustee will not be liable for the acts or omissions of any of its advisors or agents. The Trustee may pay to any advisor or agent all or
part of the fees received by it under the terms of this declaration. Notwithstanding any other provision in this declaration, the Trustee acknowledges that it is ultimately responsible for the
administration of the Arrangement.
17. Liability of the Trustee - None of the Trustee, its officers, employees or agents will be liable for any loss suffered or for any taxes, interest or penalties imposed under the Act as a result
of holding or dealing with the assets of the Arrangement in accordance with instructions which it believes in good faith to have been given by the Holder or dealing with the assets of the
Arrangement in accordance with the provisions of this declaration, except with respect to taxes for which the Trustee is responsible and that cannot be attributed to assets or deducted from
them in accordance with the Act.. The Holder and his/her personal representatives under the Arrangement will at all times indemnify and save harmless the Trustee and its agents from all
taxes, assessments, expenses, liability, claims and demands arising out of the purchase, sale or retention of assets of the Arrangement or anything done in connection with the Arrangement,
other than as the result of their gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Trustee will not be liable for any loss or penalty suffered as a result of any act done by it in reasonable reliance of
the authority of the Holder or the authority of his/her properly authorized agent or legal representatives.
18. Borrowings - The Trustee is not allowed to borrow money or other property for the purposes of the Arrangement.
19. Successor Trustee - The Trustee may resign and be discharged from all duties and liabilities under this declaration by giving the Holder thirty (30) days’ written notice. IA Clarington
Investments Inc. is nominated to appoint a successor trustee. Upon acceptance of the office of trustee of the Arrangement, the successor trustee will be trustee of the Arrangement for all
purposes as if it had been the original declarant of the Arrangement.
20. Amendments - From time to time, the Trustee may amend this declaration with the approval of the Canada Revenue Agency provided that the amendment does not disqualify the
Arrangement as a TFSA under the Act. Any amendment to ensure that the Arrangement continues to comply with the Act will be effective without notice provided that, in the Trustee’s sole
opinion, such amendment does not adversely affect the Holder rights under the Arrangement. Any other amendment will be effective not less than thirty (30) days after written notice has
been provided to the Holder.
21. Prescribed Conditions - This Arrangement complies with conditions prescribed by the Act and the regulations promulgated under the Act.
