Banking can be this comfortable : 1. te cmount of the return, if any, on onthe Financials GIC Plus depends upon the change in the S&P/TSX Banks Index 0 over the term of the GIC. The maximum return és copped at 60% for a five year term and capped at 20% fora tee year term. The maximum. retum is subject to change at any time but such return for a speciic GIC purchase is fixed on the date of purchase. The total percentage change in the index from September 29, 2000 to September 29, 2005, which would have been applicable to such a product, was 71.99%. Because the maximum return on this GIC is capped ot 60%, the actual return would have been 60%. This return is equivalent to an annual compound rote of 9.86% over this period. For the period April 13, 1998 to April 13, 2001, the total percentage change in the S&P/TSX Banks Index, which would have been applicable to such o product, was ~5%; consequently, such o GIC purchased and held over that period would have yielded no retum. The principal amount of the Financials GIC Pls will be repaid in full ct maturity. The minimum princigal amount is $1,090 for non-iegistered accounts and $500 for registered accounts.
