1. Trades must involve 100 or more units of exchange-traded funds and must be carried out through our electronic solutions. Clients must also sign up to receive all their documents electronically. Commission-free ETF trades are not counted when calculating:

• Free access to trading platforms
• Active Investor pricing
• Annual administrative fees

Management and other fees may apply to ETF investments. Please read the prospectus before making an investment. ETFs are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.

Except for NBI Funds¹ and Meritage Portfolios, the minimum amount for a mutual fund transaction through National Bank Direct Brokerage is $1,000 or the amount required by the mutual fund company, whichever is higher. Subsequent mutual fund transactions must be for at least $500.00 or the amount required by the mutual fund company, whichever is greater.

Switch orders are subject to the same redemption fees. Some mutual fund companies may charge fees in addition to the commissions payable to National Bank Direct Brokerage. These fees may include account opening fees, early redemption fees, deferred sales commissions on funds with redemption fees, management fees, etc. For more details, please refer to the prospectus of the mutual fund in question.

Fund companies charge fees when fund units with back-end loads are sold. These fees usually follow a degressive fee structure set by the fund company.

Switch transactions are allowed only within the same fund family and the same fee structure.

1. NBI Funds include the NBI Jarislowsky Fraser Funds, NBI Westwood Fund, NBI Portfolios, NBI Private Portfolios, NBI SmartData Funds and NBI SmartBeta Funds.

2. A commission fee of $44.95 applies to all transactions for certain fund families. For the complete list of fund families with transaction fees, please contact one of our representatives.

3. Only a few fund families charge transaction fees. Consult the full list of funds or contact one of our representatives.

Commissions are billed in the same currency as the transaction.

Each partial execution of a transaction is subject to the full commission, unless the transaction is executed in its entirety on the same business day. Full commission is charged for each separate transaction performed on the same security. Additional fees may be charged by the local securities exchange commission and/or by the stock market and are billed in the same currency as the transaction.

When a transaction is placed through one of our services (e.g., a representative) and then modified via another service (e.g., the website), the commission is based on the higher of the two commission schedules. Option exercises are subject to the same commission schedule as share transactions made through a representative. A currency conversion is required for any trade involving a security in a currency other than that of the account in which the trade is settled. When carrying out this conversion, National Bank Direct Brokerage acts as principal and can earn, in addition to the commission applicable to the transaction, revenue based on the spread between the bid and ask rates. Borrowing securities for short selling may result in additional fees. These fees vary based on the markets and without prior notice. Contact one of our representatives for more information about these fees.
