(1) The distribution was automatically reinvested in additional units. Immediately following the issuance, the units of the Fund were automatically consolidated and, as a result, unitholders held the same number of units after the distribution as they held before it. The adjusted cost base of a holder’s units would be increased by the amount of the distributions reinvested in units.
