TD Asset Management (TDAM), the manager of TD Pools, plans to terminate the operations of the TD Global High Yield Pool and the TD Global High Yield Pool Trust (the "Pools"), on or about 3 October 2014.

The decision to terminate the Pools was made as a result of measures announced in the federal budget in March 2013 regarding the elimination of tax benefits for investment funds that use forward contracts to convert income to capital gains for tax purposes.

The budget describes this structure as character conversion transactions.

The Pools are part of the character conversion transactions employed by the TD Global High Yield Capital Class and were not available for investment by individual investors.

The TD Global High Yield Pool Trust has only been available for purchase by the TD Global High Yield Capital Class and has been closed to additional investments since 12 April 2013.
