60Plus Income Trust¹s investment objectives are to provide Unitholders with a stable stream of quarterly distributions of at least $0.50 per Unit. The Trust intends to achieve its investment objectives by investing in a diversified portfolio consisting principally of common shares issued by corporations selected from the S&P/TSE 60 Index. The Trust may also, from time to time, invest up to 20% of the cost amount of its assets in (i) common shares issued by the top 60 corporations selected on the basis of market capitalization from the S&P 100 Index or (ii) American Depository Receipts (³ADRs²) of the top 60 corporations selected on the basis of market capitalization whose ADRs are trading on the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ.
