The changes are based on the new methodology mandated by the Canadian Securities Administrators (the CSA) and the related annual review by TDAM to determine the risk level of publicly-offered mutual funds. The changes are not a result of any modifications made to the investment objectives, strategies or management of the Funds.
A summary of the CSA's risk classification methodology and the investment objectives and strategies can be found in the applicable TD Mutual Fund simplified prospectus available at tdassetmanagement.com.
Name changes
Effective on or about July 27, 2017, TDAM will change the names of the following TD Mutual Funds:

The investment objectives and investment strategies of the funds will not change.
Annual management fee rate disclosure change
TDAM will change the management fee disclosure in the current TD Mutual Funds simplified prospectus for all series of all the funds in the simplified prospectus. Currently, the annual management fee rate for each series of each fund is expressed as a maximum annual rate in the simplified prospectus. Effective on or about July 27, 2017, the simplified prospectus will disclose a specified annual management fee rate. Going forward, where TDAM chooses to charge a management fee below the specified annual rate, a waived management fee will be stated in the Financial Reports of the applicable fund.
For some series, the specified annual management fee rate that will be disclosed will be a different rate than the maximum annual fee rate which is currently disclosed in the simplified prospectus. Generally, these changes are not expected to result in a material difference in the annual management fees charged to the funds in respect of the affected series. Such series are as follows:
