The rate of return or mathematical table shown is used only to illustrate the effects of the compound growth rate and is not intended to reflect future values of the fund or returns on investment in the fund.

This material is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, tax, legal or accounting advice nor does it constitute an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any securities referred to.

Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments. Please read the simplified prospectus before investing. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy from your advisor. Mutual funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.

The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns including changes in unit value and reinvestment of all distributions, but do not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or optional charges or income taxes payable by any unitholder that would have reduced returns.

CIBC Income Advantage Fund and CIBC U.S. Dollar Income Advantage Fund, (the Funds) invest primarily in a diversified portfolio of U.S. floating-rate collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) rated AAA. The Funds intend to invest at least 80% of their assets in AAA rated CLOs (at the time of purchase) but may also invest in CLO AA and/or A rated CLO tranches (at the time of purchase). This rating does not constitute a guarantee, may be downgraded, and in stressed market environments, it is possible that even senior CLO tranches could experience losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to defaults due to collateral default, and the disappearance of the subordinated/equity tranches, market anticipation of defaults, as well as negative market sentiment with respect to CLO securities as an asset class.

The MER is based on actual expenses reported in the fund's most recent Semi-Annual or Annual Management Report of Fund Performance, expressed on an annualized basis. We may, in some cases, waive or absorb, some of the fund’s expenses. The decision to waive or absorb is at our discretion and may continue indefinitely or be terminated at any time without notice to unitholders.

Past performance may not be repeated and is not indicative of future results.
