Desjardins announces 2021 annual reinvested distributions final amounts for Desjardins ETFs

Montreal, December 30, 2021– Desjardins Global Asset Management Inc. (DGAM), acting as manager and portfolio advisor of the Desjardins Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), announces today the annual reinvested income and/or capital gains distributions (the “reinvested distributions”) final amounts for the Desjardins ETFs listed on the TSX. Unitholders of record on December 31, 2021 will receive the reinvested distributions payable in respect of these ETFs on or about January 10, 2022. The reinvested distributions will be reinvested in units of the applicable ETF and the resulting units will be immediately consolidated, so that the number of units held by each investor will not change. Investors holding their units outside registered plans will have taxable amounts to report and an increase in the adjusted cost base of their units.

These final amounts are for the reinvested distributions only, and do not include the ongoing periodic cash distribution amounts which are being announced in a separate press release.

Below is the reinvested distributions final amount to be paid per unit for the ETFs that will pay reinvested distributions:

¹ The reinvested distributions for the ETF are expected to be income in nature.
² The reinvested distributions for the ETF are expected to be capital gains in nature.
