About the new TD Mutual Funds

TD Global Disciplined Equity Alpha Fund seeks to offer investors and advisors:

• Robust risk management: This solution relies on in-house risk modelling capabilities used to build and manage low-volatility strategies over the last decade;
• Potential for attractive risk-adjusted returns: By deriving company factor information from many data sources, our portfolio management team can help to potentially generate more attractive risk-return profiles for clients;
• Dynamic factor exposure: A technology-driven approach utilizes hundreds of data points for stocks in the fund's available universe to identify opportunities more effectively;
• Style versatility: The solution provides a style-agnostic approach to sectors and market cap levels potentially providing more opportunities to capitalize on market inefficiencies.

TD Target Maturity Bond Funds seek to offer investors and advisors:

• Choice of Canadian or U.S. dollar exposure: Investors can choose exposure to either Canadian or U.S. dollar investment-grade corporate bonds by allocating to a respective fund and maturity year;
• Defined maturity: TD Target Maturity Bond Funds allow investors to align their cash flow needs with the known maturity date and seek to reduce sensitivity to changes in the interest rates as each fund approaches maturity;
• Professional management: The solution's active management allows portfolio managers to respond to market events, seek out strategic opportunities, and potentially offer a higher yield to maturity while managing declining yield risk in a fund's final year of maturity;
• Diversification: The solution seeks to provide diversification through allocation to a basket of bonds from different issuers and sectors, which potentially contributes to a more resilient fixed income portfolio.

TD Global Technology Leaders Index Fund is structured to help provide investors seeking exposure to the technology sector with potential for long-term capital growth by tracking the performance of a global equity index which measures the investment return of global mid- and large-cap issuers related to technology, and TD Preferred Share Fund which seeks to add value and reduce risk by investing primarily in Canadian-listed preferred shares and other income-producing securities. With the launch of these mutual funds, investors are now able to access a convenient and efficient solution benefiting from the research, experience and insights of TDAM's experienced investment team.

TD Canadian Long Term Federal Bond Fund and TD U.S. Long Term Treasury Bond Fund are now available in D-Series, making the strategies behind TD Canadian Long Term Federal Bond ETF (TCLB) and TD U.S. Long Term Treasury Bond ETF (TULB) available for discount brokerage clients in mutual fund form and allowing investors to potentially benefit from these strategies in either an ETF or Mutual Fund portfolio. Both TD Canadian Long Term Federal Bond Fund and TD U.S. Long Term Treasury Bond Fund seek to earn a high rate of interest income, with TD Canadian Long Term Federal Bond Fund focusing on longer-dated Government of Canada securities and TD U.S. Long Term Treasury Bond Fund focusing on longer-dated U.S. Treasury bonds denominated in U.S. dollars.

US$ Purchase Options

To help investors build tailored portfolios to reach their financial goals, F-Series and Advisor Series of TD U.S. Equity Focused Fund and F-Series of TD U.S. Index Fund are now available in U.S. dollars.
