Management Inc. ("First Asset") announces that an annual,
special distribution in the amount of $0.026 per unit of First Asset MSCI USA Low Risk Weighted ETF (TSX: RWU and RWU.B)

previously announced that the ETF would not be paying an annual,
special distribution.

their units outside registered plans will have taxable amounts to
report and an increase in the adjusted cost base of their
