Individual Savings and Retirement | Deposit or Transfer-In: Segregated Funds 4

Deposit or Transfer-In: Segregated Funds BACK

General information

- No transactions in a fund can be performed using a known value (i.e., retroactively). If an investment instruction is missing (AIT DIF+) or incorrect, the date of the investment will be the date on which the complete information is received at Head Office.

- The minimum required deposit by cheque is $100 and the minimum investment per fund is $5. - Multiple sales charges may be applied to the same contract. However for Ecoflex and My Education contracts, if the client has a

“No fees” contract (CB or FEL), no deposit can be made in funds with charges (DSC). - Receipts will be issued to the annuitant except in the case where a contributor spouse is in the contract. - For contracts issued before 1993 that do not include funds, none can be added. A new contract must be issued. - To offset the transfer fees of another institution, we agree to reimburse an amount equal to the lesser of: i) the actual transfer

fees, and ii) the commission payable to the advisor. You must submit the F51-271A form with the transfer request or when we receive the amount. You must send a proof of the costs of the transferring institution. The initial deposit and reimbursement must be processed in the same week. No claims will be accepted after receiving the amount.

FORLIFE Series – Only available only for IAG Savings and Retirement Plan contracts issued on or after November 24, 2014.

General information

- If information is lacking to complete a transaction, the effective date of the financial transaction is the date at which such required information is received.

- The minimum required deposit by cheque is $500. - The interest rate given is the one in force on the effective date, unless a signed guaranteed rate agreement is received by Head

Office within five business days of signing. - If no information is provided regarding the interest type (simple or compound rate), the compound rate will be applied. - It is possible to have a rate increase of a common value (for guaranteed interest funds only) in another contract held by the

client. Special instructions to this effect must be indicated on the request. - For a simple interest, if the interest is to be paid monthly, the interest rate will be slightly reduced according to the Guaranteed

Interest Funds (GIF) - Monthly Rates table. Rate guarantee agreement: - Available for all terms offered by the Company, except progressive rates. - Duly signed document must be received at Head Office within five business days of the signature date. - Guarantee is irrevocable. This means that the rate indicated on the agreement will be the one granted on the investment,

regardless of whether the rate is higher on the date on which the amounts are received. For this reason, the interest rate guarantee agreement must be signed by the annuitant (applicant) or the Advisor (without LTA).

- If the money is not received at Head Office within 60 calendar days of signing of the agreement, the interest rate applied will be the current rate in effect.

- If the amounts are generated by maturing guaranteed investments, no guaranteed rate agreement can be made more than 45 calendar days before the date of reinvestment.
