EXEMPLAR CANADIAN FOCUS PORTFOLIO DISCUSSION OF NOTE 4: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS JUNE 30, 2014 UNAUDITED
The investment objective of the Exemplar Canadian Focus Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is to achieve superior capital appreciation over
both short and long term horizons primarily through the selection and management of a concentrated group of long and short
positions in Canadian equity securities and equity derivative securities.
The Portfolio’s overall risk management program seeks to maximize the returns derived for the level of risk to which the Portfolio is
exposed and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Portfolio's financial performance. All investments present a risk of
loss of capital. The maximum loss of capital on long equity and debt securities is limited to the fair value of those positions. The
maximum loss on equities and debt sold short can be unlimited and the maximum loss on forward currency contracts is the notional
contract value of those positions.
The management of these risks is carried out by the Manager and Portfolio Advisor in accordance with Portfolio’s prospectus.
The Portfolio's use of leverage and borrowings can increase the Portfolio's exposure to these risks, which in turn can also increase
the potential returns the Portfolio can achieve. The Portfolio Advisor manages these exposures on a daily basis in accordance with
investment restrictions that have been established by the Portfolio to manage the overall potential exposure. The Portfolio will
generally not use leverage in excess of 20% of its Net Asset Value.
A general discussion of risks associated with financial instruments for the Exemplar Portfolios is contained in Note 4: FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS on page 33.
CREDIT RISK
The analysis below summarizes the credit quality of the Portfolio's debt portfolio at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013.

All of the Portfolio’s liabilities are typically due in less than 3 months, except performance fees which are accrued daily and payable
annually on December 31.
MARKET RISK
The following include sensitivity analyses that show how the net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares would have
been affected by a reasonably possible change in the relevant risk variable at each reporting date. In practice, the actual results may
differ and the differences could be material.
A. CURRENCY RISK
The tables below indicate the Portfolio’s exposure to USD as at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, in Canadian
dollar terms. The tables also illustrate the potential impact on the net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares if the
Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 10% in relation to USD, with all other variables held constant. Non-monetary
assets are comprised of equity positions. Monetary assets include cash, fixed income securities and other current receivables and
payables.

C. PRICE RISK
The Portfolio's policy is to manage price risk through diversification and selection of investments within specified limits established
by the investment restrictions within the Portfolio’s prospectus, as summarized below.
The Portfolio invests predominantly in large and mid capitalization companies. The Portfolio may also invest in bonds and other
debt instruments if warranted by financial conditions. The Portfolio does not specialize in any one industry other than to
concentrate investments in those industries that offer the best opportunities for exceptional returns at each stage of the economic
and market cycle. The Portfolio may also invest in options, including put options or call options either in respect of a specific security
or in respect of a stock exchange index as a means to reduce volatility.
The Portfolio may engage in short selling of securities which the Manager believes are overvalued, especially securities of issuers
with deteriorating fundamentals and weak balance sheets. Short positions of index securities such as exchange traded funds may
also be employed for capital preservation and hedging purposes. Short selling positions will not in total exceed 40% of the Net Asset
Value of the Portfolio.
15
The Portfolio holds cash and invests in short term securities for the purpose of preserving capital and/or maintaining liquidity, based
upon the Manager’s ongoing evaluation of current and anticipated economic and market conditions. The Portfolio may also invest
in foreign securities of the same type and characteristics as described above.
The Portfolio may use derivatives for hedging and non-hedging purposes as permitted by applicable securities laws. The Portfolio
may enter into securities lending, repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions to generate additional income or as a short-term
cash management tool.
The impact on net assets of the Portfolio due to a 5% change in market prices of equity securities with all other variables held
constant, is presented in the following table.
Impact on net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares
June 30, 2014 December 31, 2013 January 1, 2013
5% Increase $3,476,610 $3,256,286 $2,500,913
5% Decrease $(3,476,610) $(3,256,286) $(2,500,913)
The Portfolio engages in short selling activities, wherein it borrows securities and sells them to third parties. Until the Portfolio covers
its short sales, it is exposed to market risk to the extent that subsequent market fluctuations may require purchasing securities sold
short at prices which may be significantly higher than the fair value reflected on the financial statements.
CONCENTRATION RISK
Concentration risk arises as a result of the concentration of exposures within the same category, whether it is geographical location,
product type, industry sector or counterparty type.
The following is a summary of the Portfolio's concentration risk:
Market Segment % of net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The following table illustrates the classification of the Portfolio's assets and liabilities measured at fair value within the fair value
hierarchy as at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013:

All fair value measurements above are recurring. The carrying values of all of the Portfolio’s financial instruments not carried at
FVTPL approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. Fair values are classified as Level 1 when the related security or
derivative is actively traded and a quoted price is available. If an instrument classified as Level 1 subsequently ceases to be actively
traded, it is transferred out of Level 1. In such cases, instruments are reclassified into Level 2, unless the measurement of its fair value
requires the use of significant unobservable inputs, in which case it would be classified as Level 3.
The Portfolio Advisor is responsible for performing the fair value measurements included in the financial statements of the Portfolio,
including Level 3 measurements, if any. The Portfolio Advisor obtains pricing from a third party pricing vendor which is monitored
and reviewed daily by the finance department.
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, the Portfolio did not hold any Level 3 financial instruments. There were
no transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the periods.
a) Equities
The Portfolio's equity positions are classified as Level 1 as each security is actively traded and a reliable price is observable.
b) Bonds
The Portfolio's bond holdings are comprised of Canadian corporate bonds. Bond pricing is obtained from bid and ask prices
provided by independent security pricing services or recognized investment dealers. Bond prices may be derived by using models
which include inputs such as interest rate curves, credit spreads and volatilities. The inputs that are significant to valuation are
generally observable and therefore the Fund's bonds have been classified as Level 2.

EXEMPLAR DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO DISCUSSION OF NOTE 4: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS JUNE 30, 2014 UNAUDITED
The investment objective of the Exemplar Diversified Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is to seek superior long term absolute and risk-
adjusted returns with the potential for low correlation to global equity and fixed-income market returns through the selection and
management of long and short positions in a globally diversified portfolio of futures, options, forward contracts and other financial
derivative instruments on agricultural and soft commodities, metals, energies, currencies, interest rates and equity indices.
The Portfolio's overall risk management program seeks to maximize the returns derived for the level of risk to which the Portfolio is
exposed and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Portfolio's financial performance. All investments present a risk of
loss of capital. The maximum loss of capital on long equity and debt securities is limited to the fair value of those positions. The
maximum loss on equities and debt sold short can be unlimited and the maximum loss on futures contracts is the notional contract
value of those positions.
The management of these risks is carried out by the Manager and Portfolio Sub-Advisor in accordance with the Portfolio’s
prospectus.
The Portfolio's use of leverage and borrowings can increase the Portfolio's exposure to these risks, which in turn can also increase
the potential returns the Portfolio can achieve. The Portfolio Sub-Advisor manages these exposures on a daily basis in accordance
with investment restrictions that have been established by the Portfolio to manage the overall potential exposure. Futures and
forward contracts and investments to which the Portfolio may have exposure at any time may be substantially larger than the actual
amount invested with the result that the Portfolio will be exposed to a form of notional leverage. The notional leverage of the
Portfolio, excluding futures on government securities and Euro dollars, is generally between 0% and 300% and can never go above
500%. The notional leverage of the Portfolio, including futures on government securities and Euro dollars, is typically around 300%
but from time to time may be as high as 1,000%. No form of cash leverage is permitted and in the case of government securities and
Euro dollars, futures positions are restricted to those that are based on investment grade government securities and Euro dollars.
A general discussion of risks associated with financial instruments for the Exemplar Portfolios is contained in Note 4: FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS on page 33.
CREDIT RISK
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, the Portfolio had no investments in debt instruments and therefore
was not subject to related credit risk. The Portfolio holds derivatives, however the risk of default is considered minimal as the
counterparty to all listed securities transactions are exchange clearinghouses. The trade will fail if the exchange clearinghouse fails
to meet its obligation.
LIQUIDITY RISK
All of the Portfolio’s liabilities are typically due in less than 3 months, except performance fees which are accrued daily and payable
annually on December 31.
MARKET RISK
A. CURRENCY RISK
The table below indicates the foreign currencies to which the Portfolio had significant exposure at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013
and January 1, 2013, in Canadian dollar terms. The table also illustrates the potential impact on the net assets attributable to holders
of redeemable shares if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 10% in relation to each of the other currencies, with
all other variables held constant. Non-monetary assets are comprised of non-financial options and futures positions. Monetary
assets include cash, margin deposits, financial options and futures positions, and other current receivables and payables.

B. INTEREST RATE RISK
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013 the Portfolio did not hold any interest-bearing securities, and therefore
was not subject to significant interest rate risk.
C. PRICE RISK
The Portfolio's policy is to manage price risk through diversification and selection of investments within specified limits established
by the investment restrictions within the prospectus, as summarized below.
The core investment strategy of the Portfolio is based on a risk budgeting strategy of allocating capital to markets and utilizing that
capital based on the amount of risk premium being priced into markets. As a result of this allocation methodology, generally 50% of
27
the portfolio risk budget is allocated to globally-traded industrial and agricultural commodity futures markets, and 50% is allocated
to global currency, treasury debt and equity index futures markets.
The Portfolio transacts on highly liquid exchanges globally that may include, but are not limited to, all futures exchanges in the
United States and Canada, the London Metals Exchange (LME), Euronext-LIFFE (LIFFE), the Eurex Deutschland (EUREX), the
International Petroleum Exchange of London Limited (IPE), the Singapore International Monetary Exchange (SIMEX), the Sydney
Futures Exchange Ltd. (SFE) and the Tokyo Commodities Exchange (TCE).
The Portfolio also has the ability to take short positions, in total not exceeding 40% of the Net Asset Value of the Portfolio.
The Portfolio may hold cash or invest in short term securities for the purpose of preserving capital and/or maintaining liquidity,
based upon the portfolio manager’s ongoing evaluation of current and anticipated economic and market conditions.
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, if the Portfolio's relevant benchmark index, New Edge Commodity
Trading Index (CAD), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables constant, the net assets attributable to holders of
redeemable shares of the Portfolio would have increased or decreased as follows:
Impact on net assets attributableto holders of redeemable shares
Benchmark June 30, 2014 December 31, 2013 January 1, 2013
New Edge Commodity Trading Index 12.6% 12.8% 12.7%
CONCENTRATION RISK
Concentration risk arises as a result of the concentration of exposures within the same category, whether it is geographical location,
product type, industry sector or counterparty type.
The following is a summary of the Portfolio's concentration risk:

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
All fair value measurements are recurring. The carrying values of all of the Portfolio’s financial instruments not carried at FVTLP
approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. Fair values are classified as Level 1 when the related security or
derivative is actively traded and a quoted price is available. If an instrument classified as Level 1 subsequently ceases to be actively
traded, it is transferred out of Level 1. In such cases, instruments are reclassified into Level 2, unless the measurement of its fair value
requires the use of significant unobservable inputs, in which case it would be classified as Level 3.
The Portfolio Sub-Advisor is responsible for performing the fair value measurements included in the financial statements of the
Portfolio, including Level 3 measurements if any. The Portfolio Sub-Advisor obtains pricing from a third party pricing vendor which
is monitored and reviewed daily by the finance department.
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, all of the Portfolio’s investments were classified as Level 1. There were
no transfers between levels 1, 2 and 3.
Derivative assets and liabilities consist of options and futures contracts which are exchange traded.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2014 UNAUDITED 1. THE PORTFOLIOS
(I) The Portfolios
Exemplar Portfolios Ltd. (the “Company”) is a mutual fund corporation incorporated under the Business Corporations Act
(Ontario). The Company was incorporated on March 18, 2008.
The address of the Portfolios’ registered office is 36 Toronto Street, Suite 750, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 2C5.
These financial statements reflect the financial position of each of the classes of the Company: Exemplar Canadian Focus
Portfolio (the “Canadian Focus Portfolio”) and Exemplar Diversified Portfolio (the “Diversified Portfolio”), individually a
"Portfolio" and collectively the "Portfolios".
Arrow Capital Management Inc. is the manager (“Arrow” or the “Manager”) of the Portfolios. Prior to December 2, 2013, the
manager of the Portfolios was BluMont Capital Corporation (“BluMont”). On December 2, 2013, Arrow acquired all the
outstanding shares of BluMont, resulting in a change of control of BluMont. On April 1, 2014, Arrow and BluMont
amalgamated, continuing under the name “Arrow Capital Management Inc.”. At a special meeting of shareholders on
November 27, 2013, the shareholders of the Portfolios approved a change of manager from BluMont to Arrow.
Arrow is the portfolio advisor “Portfolio Advisor” of the Canadian Focus Portfolio. Integrated Managed Futures Corp.
(“IMFC”) is the investment sub-advisor “Investment Sub-Advisor” of the Diversified Portfolio.
(II) Share Exchange
On June 12, 2013, all outstanding Series R Shares of the Canadian Focus Portfolio were exchanged for Series A Shares of
the Canadian Focus Portfolio. The elimination of Series R Shares allowed for increased economies of scale for operating
expenses and eliminated the administrative and regulatory costs of operating two separate series that are essentially
identical. The Series A Shares and Series R Shares are identical in terms of investment returns, management fees and
operating expense rates and the exchange occurred on a tax deferred basis.
Details relating to the Canadian Focus Portfolio share exchange are as follows:
Net Assets acquired by Series A Shares $3,936,364
Series A Shares issued 259,196
Series R Shares redeemed 309,738
Exchange Ratio 0.8368
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of Presentation and Adoption of IFRS
These interim financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(“IFRS”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34 and IFRS 1. The Portfolios adopted
this basis of accounting in 2014 as required by Canadian securities legislation and the Canadian Accounting Standards
Board. Previously, the Portfolios prepared their financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted
accounting principles as defined in Part V of the CPA Handbook ("Canadian GAAP"). The Portfolios have consistently
applied the accounting policies used in the preparation of their opening IFRS statement of financial position at January 1,
2013 and throughout all periods presented, as if these policies had always been in effect. The financial statements have
been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of financial assets and financial
liabilities (including derivative financial instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.
Note 8 discloses the impact of the transition to IFRS on the Portfolios’ reported financial position, financial performance
and cash flows, including the nature and effect of significant changes in accounting policies from those used in the
Portfolios' financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 prepared under Canadian GAAP.
30
The policies applied in these interim financial statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as of August 25, 2014,
which is the date on which the interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Manager. Any subsequent
changes to IFRS that are given effect in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2014
could result in restatement of these interim financial statements, including the transition adjustments recognized on
transition to IFRS.
b) Financial Instruments
The Portfolios recognize financial instruments at fair value upon initial recognition, plus transaction costs in the case of
financial instruments not measured at fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”). Regular way purchases and sales of
financial assets are recognized at their trade date. The Portfolios’ long investment positions are designated at FVTPL. The
Portfolios’ short investment positions, futures contracts and options are classified as held for trading (“HFT”) and are
measured at FVTPL. The Portfolios’ obligation for net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares is presented at
the redemption amount. All other financial assets and liabilities are measured at amortized cost. Under this method,
financial assets and liabilities reflect the amount required to be received or paid, discounted, when appropriate, at the
contract’s effective interest rate. The Portfolios’ accounting policies for measuring the fair value of their investments and
derivatives are substantially similar to those used in measuring its net asset value ("NAV") for transactions with
shareholders. There were no differences between the net asset value attributable to holders of redeemable shares used
for reporting purposes under IFRS and that used for transactions with shareholders.
Realized gains and losses on sale of investments and unrealized appreciation or depreciation in investments are
determined on an average cost basis. Realized gains and losses on securities sold short and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation on securities sold short are calculated with reference to the average proceeds of the related securities.
Average cost does not include amortization of premiums or discounts on fixed income securities.
Interest for distribution purposes shown on the statements of comprehensive income represents the coupon interest
received by a Portfolio accounted for on an accrual basis.
Dividend income and expense is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income on the ex-dividend date.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a
legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize
the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In the normal course of business, the Portfolios enter into various master
netting agreements or similar agreements that do not meet the criteria for offsetting in the statement of financial position
but still allow for the related amounts to be set off in certain circumstances, such as bankruptcy or termination of the
contracts.
c) Financial Instruments - Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. The fair value of financial assets and liabilities traded in active markets is
based on quoted market prices at the close of trading on the reporting date. The Portfolio uses the last traded market
price for securities where the last traded price falls within the bid-ask spread. In circumstances where the last traded price
is not within the bid-ask spread, the Manager determines the point within the bid-ask spread that is most representative
of fair value based on the specific facts and circumstances. The fair value of bonds is determined using mid-market pricing
derived from bid and ask prices provided by independent security pricing services or recognized investment dealers. The
fair value of futures contracts is based on the settlement price assigned by the exchange. Gains and losses arising from
changes in the fair value of financial assets or liabilities are presented in the statement of comprehensive income. The
Portfolios' policy is to recognize transfers into and out of the fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or
change in circumstances giving rise to the transfer.
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation
techniques. The Portfolios may use a variety of methods and make assumptions that are based on market conditions
existing at each reporting date. Valuation techniques include the use of comparable recent arm’s length transactions,
reference to other instruments that are substantially the same and other commonly used methods by market participants
which make the maximum use of observable inputs.
31
d) Impairment of Financial Assets
At each reporting date, each Portfolio assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset at amortized cost
is impaired. If such evidence exists, the Portfolio recognizes an impairment loss as the difference between the amortized
cost of the financial asset and the present value of future cash flows discounted using the assets original effective interest
rate. Impairment losses on financial assets at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss
decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized.
e) Foreign Currency Translation
The Portfolios’ functional and presentation currency is the Canadian dollar.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates
that transactions occur. Foreign currency assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into the
functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing at the measurement date. Foreign exchange gains and losses
relating to cash are presented as ‘Gain (loss) on foreign currency’ and those relating to other financial assets and liabilities
are presented within ‘Net realized gain (loss) on investments and derivatives’ and ‘Net change in unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) in value of investments and derivatives’ in the statement of comprehensive income.
f) Cash
Cash is comprised of deposits with financial institutions.
g) Margin Deposit
Cash collateral provided by each Portfolio is identified in that Portfolio’s statement of financial position as ‘Margin deposit’.
h) Forward Currency Contracts
Each Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts for purposes of minimizing currency exposure or to establish an
exposure to a particular currency. The value of forward currency contracts entered into by a Portfolio is recorded as the
difference between the contract rate and the current forward rates at the measurement date, applied to the contract's
notional amount and adjusted for counterparty risk. The change in the fair value of forward currency contracts is included
in ‘Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments and derivatives’ in the statement of
comprehensive income. Upon closing of a contract, the gain or loss is included in ‘Net realized gain (loss) on investments
and derivatives’ in the statement of comprehensive income.
i) Futures Contracts
Futures contracts are contractual obligations to buy or sell financial instruments or commodities on a future date at a
specified price established in an organized market. Subsequent to initial recognition, changes in fair value are presented
in ‘Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of futures’ in the statement of comprehensive income.
When futures contracts are closed out, the gain or loss is included in ‘Net realized gain (loss) on futures’ in the statement of
comprehensive income.
j) Commissions and Other Portfolio Transaction Costs
Commissions and other portfolio transaction costs are incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or
disposal of an investment, which include fees and commissions paid to agents, advisors, brokers and dealers. Such costs
are expensed when incurred.
k) Income and Expense Allocation
The net assets of each series of each Portfolio are computed by calculating the value of that series’ proportionate share of
that Portfolio’s assets less that series’ proportionate share of that Portfolio’s common liabilities less series specific liabilities,
if any. Expenses directly attributable to a series are charged to that series. Other income, expenses and gains/losses are
allocated based on a reasonable allocation methodology which will include allocations based on the assets of the
Portfolios or the number of shareholders in the Portfolios or other methodology the Manager determines is fair.
32
l) Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Attributable to Holders of Redeemable Shares per Share
The increase (decrease) in net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares per share is calculated by dividing the
increase (decrease) in net assets attributable to the class divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
in that class during the period. Refer to Note 7 for the calculation.
m) Taxation
Each Portfolio is a class of shares of the Corporation. Income, expenses and capital gains and losses of each Portfolio are
consolidated, as a single entity, in determining the Corporation’s taxable income and amount of taxes payable as a whole.
Any taxes payable or recoverable by the Corporation are allocated to the Portfolios and their various series’.
The Corporation qualifies as a mutual fund corporation under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”). The general
income tax rules associated with a public corporation apply to a mutual fund corporation with the exception that taxes
payable on net realized capital gains are refundable when its shares are redeemed or when it pays capital gains dividends
out of its capital gains dividend account to its shareholders, such that in substance the Corporation is not taxable on
capital gains. Similarly, the Corporation is subject to Part IV tax on dividends received from Canadian corporations,
however, they are refundable once paid to shareholders. As a result, the Corporation does not record income taxes related
to capital gains and dividends from Canadian corporations.
Interest and foreign income are taxed at normal corporate rates applicable to mutual fund corporations and can be
reduced by permitted deductions for tax purposes. All of the Corporation’s expenses including management fees and
operating expenses will be taken into account in determining its overall tax liability, if any.
As of December 31, 2013, the Corporation has accumulated the following non-capital losses available for utilization
against net income for tax purposes in future years and capital losses available for utilization against capital gains. The tax
benefit of the non-capital losses has not been reflected in the financial statements.
Non-Capital Loss* Capital Loss**
$9,866,690 $nil * Non-capital losses can be offset against income in future years for up to 20 years. ** Net Capital losses can be carried forward indefinitely for offset against gains in future periods.
3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The preparation of financial statements requires management to use judgment in applying its accounting policies and to make
estimates and assumptions about the future. The following discusses the most significant accounting judgments and estimates that
the Manager has made in preparing the financial statements:
Use of Estimates
Fair Value measurement of derivatives and securities not quoted in an active market
The Portfolios may hold financial instruments that are not quoted in active markets, including derivatives. Fair value of such
instruments is determined using valuation techniques and may be determined using reputable pricing sources (such as pricing
agencies) or indicative prices from market makers. Broker quotes as obtained from the pricing sources may be indicative and not
executable or binding. Where no market data is available, a Portfolio may value positions using its own models, which are usually
based on valuation methods and techniques generally recognized as standard within the industry. The models used to determine
fair values are validated and periodically reviewed by experienced personnel of the Manager, independent of the party that created
them.
Models use observable data, to the extent practicable. However, areas such as credit risk (both own and counterparty), volatilities
and correlations require the Manager to make estimates. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair
values of financial instruments. The Portfolios consider observable data to be market data that is readily available, regularly
distributed and updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in
the relevant market. Refer to Note 5 for further information about the fair value measurement of the Portfolio's financial
instruments.
33
Use of Judgments
Classification and Measurement of Investments and Application of the Fair Value Option
In classifying and measuring financial instruments held by the Portfolios, the Manager is required to make significant judgments
about whether or not the business of the Portfolios is to invest on a total return basis for the purpose of applying the fair value
option for financial assets under IAS 39, Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement (IAS 39). The most significant
judgments made include the determination that certain investments are held-for-trading and that the fair value option can be
applied to those which are not.
4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the normal course of business, each Portfolio is exposed to a variety of financial risks: credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk
(including interest rate risk, other price risk and currency risk). Please refer to Discussion of Financial Instruments (an addendum to
Note 4 on pages 13 and 25 of this report) for each Portfolio’s specific risk disclosure.
(I) Credit Risk
The Portfolios may be exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for
the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Where a Portfolio invests in debt instruments and derivatives, this represents
the main concentration of credit risk.
All transactions in listed securities are settled or paid for upon delivery using approved brokers. The credit risk related to the
associated receivables is considered limited, as delivery of securities sold is only made once the broker has received payment.
Payment is made on a purchase once the securities have been received by the broker. The trade will fail if either party fails to meet
its obligation. However, there are risks involved in dealing with custodians or prime brokers who settle trades and in rare
circumstances, the securities and other assets deposited with the custodian or broker may be exposed to credit risk with regard to
such parties. In addition, there may be practical problems or time delays associated with enforcing a Portfolio's rights to its assets in
the case of an insolvency of any such party. The Portfolios are also exposed to counterparty credit risk on cash, margin deposits and
other receivable balances.
(II) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that a Portfolio will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. Each
Portfolio is exposed to cash redemptions and as such, retains sufficient cash to fund anticipated redemptions. The Portfolios aim to
retain sufficient cash to maintain adequate liquidity including coverage of obligations related to short sales and all current liabilities.
In addition, each Portfolio generally invests in securities that are highly liquid and where there is an observable market price that is
quoted by multiple dealers.
(III) Market Risk
The Portfolios’ investments are subject to market risk which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.
A. Currency Risk
The Portfolios invest in financial instruments and enter into transactions that are denominated in currencies other than
the Canadian dollar. Consequently, the Portfolios are exposed to currency risk, which is the risk that the fair value or future
cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Portfolios may enter
into foreign exchange currency contracts to reduce their foreign currency exposure.
B. Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. A Portfolio may hold securities with fixed interest rates that expose that Portfolio to fair
value interest rate risk.
34
C. Price Risk
The Portfolios are exposed to price risk, which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk). The
Portfolios’ investments are subject to the risk of changes in the prices of equity securities, bonds and derivatives.
(IV) Concentration Risk
Concentration risk arises as a result of the concentration of exposures within the same category, whether it is geographical location,
product type, industry sector or counterparty type.
(V) Capital Risk Management
Shares issued and outstanding are considered to be the capital of the Portfolios. The Portfolios do not have any specific capital
requirements on the subscription and redemption of shares, other than certain minimum subscription requirements. Shareholders
are entitled to require payment of the net asset value per share of a Portfolio for all or any of the shares of such shareholder by
giving written notice to the Manager. The written notice is irrevocable and must be received no later than 4:00 p.m., EST, on the
valuation day upon which the shares are to be redeemed (a "Redemption Date"). The redeeming shareholder will receive payment in
respect of any shares surrendered for redemption on or before the 3rd business day immediately following a Redemption Date,
subject to the Manager’s right to suspend redemptions in certain circumstances.
(VI) Fair Value Measurement
Each Portfolio classifies fair value measurements within a hierarchy which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of
the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a Portfolio can access at the
measurement date,
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either
directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.
If inputs of different levels are used to measure an asset's or liability's fair value, the classification within the hierarchy is based on the
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
5. REDEEMABLE SHARES

6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Manager is responsible for making decisions relating to the investment of the Portfolios’ assets and providing key management
personnel.
The Arrow Diversified Fund owns 41,748 Series F Shares of the Diversified Portfolio, with a market value of $450,878. This represents 1.4% of
net assets of the Diversified Portfolio.
As of June 30, 2014, the number of shares owned by Arrow for each Portfolio is summarized as follows:
Portfolio Number of Shares Amount % of Net Assets
Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series A 529 $9,956 0.0%Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series F 4,768 $94,740 0.0%Diversified Portfolio – Series A 500 $5,115 0.0%Diversified Portfolio – Series F 4,500 $48,600 0.0%
As of June 30, 2013, the number of shares owned by Arrow for each Portfolio is summarized as follows:
Portfolio Number of Shares Amount % of Net Assets
Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series A 522 $8,003 0.0%Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series F 4,699 $75,203 0.1%Diversified Portfolio – Series A 500 $5,361 0.0%Diversified Portfolio – Series F 4,500 $50,417 0.1%
Management Fee and Performance Bonus
The management fee paid to the Manager by the Canadian Focus Portfolio is 1.65% per annum on Series A, 0.65% per annum on
Series F Shares and 1.95% on Series L Shares. The management fee paid to the Manager by the Diversified Portfolio is 2.00% per
annum on Series A Shares, 1.00% per annum on Series F Shares and 2.30% on Series L Shares.
No portion of the management fee charged to a Portfolio is borne by Series I Shares of the Portfolios. A holder of Series I Shares of a
Portfolio pays a negotiated management fee directly to the Manager.
Each Portfolio will pay to the Manager in respect of each fiscal year of the Portfolio ended December 31 a performance bonus per
Share (the “Performance Bonus”) equal to 20% of the amount by which the Adjusted Net Asset Value per Share at the end of the
fiscal year exceeds the highest year end Adjusted Net Asset Value per Share previously achieved. For these purposes, “Adjusted Net
Asset Value per Share” of any series of shares of a Portfolio means the Net Asset Value per share of that series at the end of a fiscal
year without giving effect to the accrual of any Performance Bonus, plus the aggregate amount of all distributions previously
declared on a per Share basis in respect of such series of Shares. The Performance Bonus for a Portfolio is calculated and accrued
36
each day the Net Asset Value of the Portfolio is calculated, but is only payable at the end of the fiscal year of the Portfolio based on
the actual annual performance of the Portfolio.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Performance Bonus is payable with respect to any fiscal year of a Portfolio unless the Adjusted
Net Asset Value per Share at the end of such fiscal year exceeds the Net Asset Value per share at the end of the preceding year (or on
the date the Shares are first issued), plus the aggregate amount of all distributions previously declared on a per share basis, by a
minimum of 6%.
The Performance Bonus is estimated and accrued each Valuation Date, calculated as at the end of each fiscal year-end of the
Portfolios and paid within 15 business days thereafter.
Each Portfolio is responsible for all operating expenses incurred by or on behalf of that Portfolio. If the Manager provides any of
these services, it shall be entitled to fees for such services not exceeding fees charged by arm’s length third parties for the provision
of similar services.
The Portfolio Advisor and Portfolio Sub-Advisor will be remunerated by the Manager out of the Management Fee and the
Performance Bonus.
Accrued management fees and performance fees (plus HST) included on the statement of financial positions are as follows:

8. TRANSITION TO IFRS
The effect of the Portfolios’ transition to IFRS is summarized in this note as follows:
Transition Elections
The only voluntary exemption adopted by the Portfolios upon transition was the ability to designate a financial asset or financial
liability at fair value through profit and loss upon transition to IFRS. All financial assets designated at FVTPL upon transition (see
Note 2) were previously carried at fair value under Canadian GAAP as required by Accounting Guideline 18, Investment Companies.
Revaluation of Investments at FVTPL
Under Canadian GAAP, the Portfolios measured the fair values of their investments in accordance with Section 3855, Financial
Instruments - Recognition and Measurement, which required the use of bid prices for long positions and ask prices for short
positions, to the extent such prices are available. Under IFRS, the Portfolios measure the fair values of their investments using the
guidance in IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement (IFRS 13), which requires that if an asset or a liability has a bid price and an ask price,
then its fair value is to be based on a price within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of fair value. It also allows the use of
mid-market pricing or other pricing conventions that are used by market participants as a practical expedient for fair value
measurements within a bid-ask spread.
Reconciliation of Equity and Comprehensive Income as Previously Reported Under Canadian GAAP to IFRS

Classification of redeemable shares issued by the Portfolios
Under Canadian GAAP, the Portfolios accounted for their redeemable shares as equity. The features of each Portfolio’s redeemable
shares are not identical and consequently the shares, do not meet the conditions to be classified as equity. As a result, the Portfolios
obligations for net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares are financial liabilities under IFRS, presented at the
redemption amounts.
Statement of cash flows
Under Canadian GAAP, the Portfolios were exempt from providing a Statement of Cash Flows. IAS 1 requires that a Statement of
Cash Flows be presented as part of a complete set of financial statements. As such, the Portfolios have presented a Statement of
Cash Flows in the interim financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013.
9. FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES IFRS 9, Financial Instruments
The final version of IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, was issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) in July 2014
and will replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 introduces a model for classification and
measurement, a single, forward-looking ‘expected loss’ impairment model and a substantially reformed approach to hedge
accounting. The new single, principle based approach for determining the classification of financial assets is driven by cash flow
characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held. The new model also results in a single impairment model being
applied to all financial instruments, which will require more timely recognition of expected credit losses. It also includes changes in
respect of own credit risk in measuring liabilities elected to be measured at fair value, so that gains caused by the deterioration of an
entity’s own credit risk on such liabilities are no longer recognized in profit or loss. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2018, however is available for early adoption. In addition, the own credit changes can be early applied in
isolation without otherwise changing the accounting for financial instruments. The Portfolios are in the process of assessing the
impact of IFRS 9 and have not yet determined when they will adopt the new standard.

EXEMPLAR CANADIAN FOCUS PORTFOLIO DISCUSSION OF NOTE 4: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS JUNE 30, 2014 UNAUDITED
The investment objective of the Exemplar Canadian Focus Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is to achieve superior capital appreciation over
both short and long term horizons primarily through the selection and management of a concentrated group of long and short
positions in Canadian equity securities and equity derivative securities.
The Portfolio’s overall risk management program seeks to maximize the returns derived for the level of risk to which the Portfolio is
exposed and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Portfolio's financial performance. All investments present a risk of
loss of capital. The maximum loss of capital on long equity and debt securities is limited to the fair value of those positions. The
maximum loss on equities and debt sold short can be unlimited and the maximum loss on forward currency contracts is the notional
contract value of those positions.
The management of these risks is carried out by the Manager and Portfolio Advisor in accordance with Portfolio’s prospectus.
The Portfolio's use of leverage and borrowings can increase the Portfolio's exposure to these risks, which in turn can also increase
the potential returns the Portfolio can achieve. The Portfolio Advisor manages these exposures on a daily basis in accordance with
investment restrictions that have been established by the Portfolio to manage the overall potential exposure. The Portfolio will
generally not use leverage in excess of 20% of its Net Asset Value.
A general discussion of risks associated with financial instruments for the Exemplar Portfolios is contained in Note 4: FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS on page 33.
CREDIT RISK
The analysis below summarizes the credit quality of the Portfolio's debt portfolio at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013.
Percentage of total debt securities
Credit Rating* As at June 30, 2014 As at December 31, 2013 As at January 1, 2013 Not Rated 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Total 100.0% 100.0% 100.0%
* Credit ratings are obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and/or Dominion Bond Rating Service. Where multiple ratings were obtained for a security, the lowest rating has been used.
LIQUIDITY RISK
All of the Portfolio’s liabilities are typically due in less than 3 months, except performance fees which are accrued daily and payable
annually on December 31.
MARKET RISK
The following include sensitivity analyses that show how the net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares would have
been affected by a reasonably possible change in the relevant risk variable at each reporting date. In practice, the actual results may
differ and the differences could be material.
A. CURRENCY RISK
The tables below indicate the Portfolio’s exposure to USD as at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, in Canadian
dollar terms. The tables also illustrate the potential impact on the net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares if the
Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 10% in relation to USD, with all other variables held constant. Non-monetary
assets are comprised of equity positions. Monetary assets include cash, fixed income securities and other current receivables and
payables.

B. INTEREST RATE RISK
The table below summarizes the Portfolio's exposure to interest rate risk as at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1,
2013. The table also illustrates the potential impact, or sensitivity, on the net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares if
the prevailing levels of market interest rates changed by 1.0%, assuming a parallel shift in the yield curve with all other variables held
constant.

C. PRICE RISK
The Portfolio's policy is to manage price risk through diversification and selection of investments within specified limits established
by the investment restrictions within the Portfolio’s prospectus, as summarized below.
The Portfolio invests predominantly in large and mid capitalization companies. The Portfolio may also invest in bonds and other
debt instruments if warranted by financial conditions. The Portfolio does not specialize in any one industry other than to
concentrate investments in those industries that offer the best opportunities for exceptional returns at each stage of the economic
and market cycle. The Portfolio may also invest in options, including put options or call options either in respect of a specific security
or in respect of a stock exchange index as a means to reduce volatility.
The Portfolio may engage in short selling of securities which the Manager believes are overvalued, especially securities of issuers
with deteriorating fundamentals and weak balance sheets. Short positions of index securities such as exchange traded funds may
also be employed for capital preservation and hedging purposes. Short selling positions will not in total exceed 40% of the Net Asset
Value of the Portfolio.
14
The Portfolio holds cash and invests in short term securities for the purpose of preserving capital and/or maintaining liquidity, based
upon the Manager’s ongoing evaluation of current and anticipated economic and market conditions. The Portfolio may also invest
in foreign securities of the same type and characteristics as described above.
The Portfolio may use derivatives for hedging and non-hedging purposes as permitted by applicable securities laws. The Portfolio
may enter into securities lending, repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions to generate additional income or as a short-term
cash management tool.
The impact on net assets of the Portfolio due to a 5% change in market prices of equity securities with all other variables held
constant, is presented in the following table.
Impact on net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares
June 30, 2014 December 31, 2013 January 1, 2013
5% Increase $3,476,610 $3,256,286 $2,500,913
5% Decrease $(3,476,610) $(3,256,286) $(2,500,913)
The Portfolio engages in short selling activities, wherein it borrows securities and sells them to third parties. Until the Portfolio covers
its short sales, it is exposed to market risk to the extent that subsequent market fluctuations may require purchasing securities sold
short at prices which may be significantly higher than the fair value reflected on the financial statements.
CONCENTRATION RISK
Concentration risk arises as a result of the concentration of exposures within the same category, whether it is geographical location,
product type, industry sector or counterparty type.
The following is a summary of the Portfolio's concentration risk:
Market Segment % of net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares
June 30, 2014 December 31, 2013 January 1, 2013
Long Positions Energy 14.7% 9.8% 15.9%

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The following table illustrates the classification of the Portfolio's assets and liabilities measured at fair value within the fair value
hierarchy as at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013:
As at June 30, 2014 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Financial assets at FVTPL Equities $70,251,713 - - $70,251,713 Bonds - 2,012,500 - 2,012,500 Total 70,251,713 2,012,500 - 72,264,213 Financial liabilities at FVTPL Equities sold short (719,515) - - (719,515) Total $(719,515) - - $(719,515)
As at December 31, 2013 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Financial assets at FVTPL Equities $63,965,068 $- $- $63,965,068 Bonds - 2,219,000 - 2,219,000 Total 63,965,068 2,219,000 - 66,184,068 Financial liabilities at FVTPL Equities sold short (1,058,358) - - (1,058,358) Total $(1,058,358) $- $- $(1,058,358)
As at January 1, 2013 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Financial assets at FVTPL Equities $46,980,023 $- $- $46,980,023 Bonds - 4,082,534 - 4,082,534 Total 46,980,024 4,082,534 - 51,062,557 Financial liabilities at FVTPL Equities sold short (1,044,233) - - (1,044,233) Total $(1,044,233) $- $- $(1,044,233)
All fair value measurements above are recurring. The carrying values of all of the Portfolio’s financial instruments not carried at
FVTPL approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. Fair values are classified as Level 1 when the related security or
derivative is actively traded and a quoted price is available. If an instrument classified as Level 1 subsequently ceases to be actively
traded, it is transferred out of Level 1. In such cases, instruments are reclassified into Level 2, unless the measurement of its fair value
requires the use of significant unobservable inputs, in which case it would be classified as Level 3.
The Portfolio Advisor is responsible for performing the fair value measurements included in the financial statements of the Portfolio,
including Level 3 measurements, if any. The Portfolio Advisor obtains pricing from a third party pricing vendor which is monitored
and reviewed daily by the finance department.
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, the Portfolio did not hold any Level 3 financial instruments. There were
no transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the periods.
a) Equities
The Portfolio's equity positions are classified as Level 1 as each security is actively traded and a reliable price is observable.
b) Bonds
The Portfolio's bond holdings are comprised of Canadian corporate bonds. Bond pricing is obtained from bid and ask prices
provided by independent security pricing services or recognized investment dealers. Bond prices may be derived by using models
which include inputs such as interest rate curves, credit spreads and volatilities. The inputs that are significant to valuation are
generally observable and therefore the Fund's bonds have been classified as Level 2.

EXEMPLAR DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO DISCUSSION OF NOTE 4: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS JUNE 30, 2014 UNAUDITED
The investment objective of the Exemplar Diversified Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is to seek superior long term absolute and risk-
adjusted returns with the potential for low correlation to global equity and fixed-income market returns through the selection and
management of long and short positions in a globally diversified portfolio of futures, options, forward contracts and other financial
derivative instruments on agricultural and soft commodities, metals, energies, currencies, interest rates and equity indices.
The Portfolio's overall risk management program seeks to maximize the returns derived for the level of risk to which the Portfolio is
exposed and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Portfolio's financial performance. All investments present a risk of
loss of capital. The maximum loss of capital on long equity and debt securities is limited to the fair value of those positions. The
maximum loss on equities and debt sold short can be unlimited and the maximum loss on futures contracts is the notional contract
value of those positions.
The management of these risks is carried out by the Manager and Portfolio Sub-Advisor in accordance with the Portfolio’s
prospectus.
The Portfolio's use of leverage and borrowings can increase the Portfolio's exposure to these risks, which in turn can also increase
the potential returns the Portfolio can achieve. The Portfolio Sub-Advisor manages these exposures on a daily basis in accordance
with investment restrictions that have been established by the Portfolio to manage the overall potential exposure. Futures and
forward contracts and investments to which the Portfolio may have exposure at any time may be substantially larger than the actual
amount invested with the result that the Portfolio will be exposed to a form of notional leverage. The notional leverage of the
Portfolio, excluding futures on government securities and Euro dollars, is generally between 0% and 300% and can never go above
500%. The notional leverage of the Portfolio, including futures on government securities and Euro dollars, is typically around 300%
but from time to time may be as high as 1,000%. No form of cash leverage is permitted and in the case of government securities and
Euro dollars, futures positions are restricted to those that are based on investment grade government securities and Euro dollars.
A general discussion of risks associated with financial instruments for the Exemplar Portfolios is contained in Note 4: FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS on page 33.
CREDIT RISK
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, the Portfolio had no investments in debt instruments and therefore
was not subject to related credit risk. The Portfolio holds derivatives, however the risk of default is considered minimal as the
counterparty to all listed securities transactions are exchange clearinghouses. The trade will fail if the exchange clearinghouse fails
to meet its obligation.
LIQUIDITY RISK
All of the Portfolio’s liabilities are typically due in less than 3 months, except performance fees which are accrued daily and payable
annually on December 31.
MARKET RISK
A. CURRENCY RISK
The table below indicates the foreign currencies to which the Portfolio had significant exposure at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013
and January 1, 2013, in Canadian dollar terms. The table also illustrates the potential impact on the net assets attributable to holders
of redeemable shares if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 10% in relation to each of the other currencies, with
all other variables held constant. Non-monetary assets are comprised of non-financial options and futures positions. Monetary
assets include cash, margin deposits, financial options and futures positions, and other current receivables and payables.

B. INTEREST RATE RISK
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013 the Portfolio did not hold any interest-bearing securities, and therefore
was not subject to significant interest rate risk.
C. PRICE RISK
The Portfolio's policy is to manage price risk through diversification and selection of investments within specified limits established
by the investment restrictions within the prospectus, as summarized below.
The core investment strategy of the Portfolio is based on a risk budgeting strategy of allocating capital to markets and utilizing that
capital based on the amount of risk premium being priced into markets. As a result of this allocation methodology, generally 50% of
26
the portfolio risk budget is allocated to globally-traded industrial and agricultural commodity futures markets, and 50% is allocated
to global currency, treasury debt and equity index futures markets.
The Portfolio transacts on highly liquid exchanges globally that may include, but are not limited to, all futures exchanges in the
United States and Canada, the London Metals Exchange (LME), Euronext-LIFFE (LIFFE), the Eurex Deutschland (EUREX), the
International Petroleum Exchange of London Limited (IPE), the Singapore International Monetary Exchange (SIMEX), the Sydney
Futures Exchange Ltd. (SFE) and the Tokyo Commodities Exchange (TCE).
The Portfolio also has the ability to take short positions, in total not exceeding 40% of the Net Asset Value of the Portfolio.
The Portfolio may hold cash or invest in short term securities for the purpose of preserving capital and/or maintaining liquidity,
based upon the portfolio manager’s ongoing evaluation of current and anticipated economic and market conditions.
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, if the Portfolio's relevant benchmark index, New Edge Commodity
Trading Index (CAD), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables constant, the net assets attributable to holders of
redeemable shares of the Portfolio would have increased or decreased as follows:
Impact on net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares
Benchmark June 30, 2014 December 31, 2013 January 1, 2013
New Edge Commodity Trading Index 12.6% 12.8% 12.7%
CONCENTRATION RISK
Concentration risk arises as a result of the concentration of exposures within the same category, whether it is geographical location,
product type, industry sector or counterparty type.
The following is a summary of the Portfolio's concentration risk:
Market Segment % of net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares
June 30, 2014 December 31, 2013 January 1, 2013
Long Positions Commodity Futures 0.8% (0.3)% (0.3)%
Currency Futures 0.7% 0.4% (0.5)% Index Futures 0.5% 2.3% 0.8% Bond Futures 1.3% (0.1)% - Index Options 0.1% - -
Short Positions Commodity Futures 0.5% 0.7% (0.4)%
Currency Futures 0.2% 0.5% 1.4% Bond Futures (0.1)% 0.5% - Index Options (1.3)% - -
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
All fair value measurements are recurring. The carrying values of all of the Portfolio’s financial instruments not carried at FVTLP
approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. Fair values are classified as Level 1 when the related security or
derivative is actively traded and a quoted price is available. If an instrument classified as Level 1 subsequently ceases to be actively
traded, it is transferred out of Level 1. In such cases, instruments are reclassified into Level 2, unless the measurement of its fair value
requires the use of significant unobservable inputs, in which case it would be classified as Level 3.
The Portfolio Sub-Advisor is responsible for performing the fair value measurements included in the financial statements of the
Portfolio, including Level 3 measurements if any. The Portfolio Sub-Advisor obtains pricing from a third party pricing vendor which
is monitored and reviewed daily by the finance department.
As at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and January 1, 2013, all of the Portfolio’s investments were classified as Level 1. There were
no transfers between levels 1, 2 and 3.
Derivative assets and liabilities consist of options and futures contracts which are exchange traded.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2014 UNAUDITED 1. THE PORTFOLIOS
(I) The Portfolios
Exemplar Portfolios Ltd. (the “Company”) is a mutual fund corporation incorporated under the Business Corporations Act
(Ontario). The Company was incorporated on March 18, 2008.
The address of the Portfolios’ registered office is 36 Toronto Street, Suite 750, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 2C5.
These financial statements reflect the financial position of each of the classes of the Company: Exemplar Canadian Focus
Portfolio (the “Canadian Focus Portfolio”) and Exemplar Diversified Portfolio (the “Diversified Portfolio”), individually a
"Portfolio" and collectively the "Portfolios".
Arrow Capital Management Inc. is the manager (“Arrow” or the “Manager”) of the Portfolios. Prior to December 2, 2013, the
manager of the Portfolios was BluMont Capital Corporation (“BluMont”). On December 2, 2013, Arrow acquired all the
outstanding shares of BluMont, resulting in a change of control of BluMont. On April 1, 2014, Arrow and BluMont
amalgamated, continuing under the name “Arrow Capital Management Inc.”. At a special meeting of shareholders on
November 27, 2013, the shareholders of the Portfolios approved a change of manager from BluMont to Arrow.
Arrow is the portfolio advisor “Portfolio Advisor” of the Canadian Focus Portfolio. Integrated Managed Futures Corp.
(“IMFC”) is the investment sub-advisor “Investment Sub-Advisor” of the Diversified Portfolio.
(II) Share Exchange
On June 12, 2013, all outstanding Series R Shares of the Canadian Focus Portfolio were exchanged for Series A Shares of
the Canadian Focus Portfolio. The elimination of Series R Shares allowed for increased economies of scale for operating
expenses and eliminated the administrative and regulatory costs of operating two separate series that are essentially
identical. The Series A Shares and Series R Shares are identical in terms of investment returns, management fees and
operating expense rates and the exchange occurred on a tax deferred basis.
Details relating to the Canadian Focus Portfolio share exchange are as follows:
Net Assets acquired by Series A Shares $3,936,364
Series A Shares issued 259,196
Series R Shares redeemed 309,738
Exchange Ratio 0.8368
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of Presentation and Adoption of IFRS
These interim financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(“IFRS”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34 and IFRS 1. The Portfolios adopted
this basis of accounting in 2014 as required by Canadian securities legislation and the Canadian Accounting Standards
Board. Previously, the Portfolios prepared their financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted
accounting principles as defined in Part V of the CPA Handbook ("Canadian GAAP"). The Portfolios have consistently
applied the accounting policies used in the preparation of their opening IFRS statement of financial position at January 1,
2013 and throughout all periods presented, as if these policies had always been in effect. The financial statements have
been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of financial assets and financial
liabilities (including derivative financial instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.
Note 8 discloses the impact of the transition to IFRS on the Portfolios’ reported financial position, financial performance
and cash flows, including the nature and effect of significant changes in accounting policies from those used in the
Portfolios' financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 prepared under Canadian GAAP.
29
The policies applied in these interim financial statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as of August 25, 2014,
which is the date on which the interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Manager. Any subsequent
changes to IFRS that are given effect in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2014
could result in restatement of these interim financial statements, including the transition adjustments recognized on
transition to IFRS.
b) Financial Instruments
The Portfolios recognize financial instruments at fair value upon initial recognition, plus transaction costs in the case of
financial instruments not measured at fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”). Regular way purchases and sales of
financial assets are recognized at their trade date. The Portfolios’ long investment positions are designated at FVTPL. The
Portfolios’ short investment positions, futures contracts and options are classified as held for trading (“HFT”) and are
measured at FVTPL. The Portfolios’ obligation for net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares is presented at
the redemption amount. All other financial assets and liabilities are measured at amortized cost. Under this method,
financial assets and liabilities reflect the amount required to be received or paid, discounted, when appropriate, at the
contract’s effective interest rate. The Portfolios’ accounting policies for measuring the fair value of their investments and
derivatives are substantially similar to those used in measuring its net asset value ("NAV") for transactions with
shareholders. There were no differences between the net asset value attributable to holders of redeemable shares used
for reporting purposes under IFRS and that used for transactions with shareholders.
Realized gains and losses on sale of investments and unrealized appreciation or depreciation in investments are
determined on an average cost basis. Realized gains and losses on securities sold short and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation on securities sold short are calculated with reference to the average proceeds of the related securities.
Average cost does not include amortization of premiums or discounts on fixed income securities.
Interest for distribution purposes shown on the statements of comprehensive income represents the coupon interest
received by a Portfolio accounted for on an accrual basis.
Dividend income and expense is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income on the ex-dividend date.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a
legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize
the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In the normal course of business, the Portfolios enter into various master
netting agreements or similar agreements that do not meet the criteria for offsetting in the statement of financial position
but still allow for the related amounts to be set off in certain circumstances, such as bankruptcy or termination of the
contracts.
c) Financial Instruments - Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. The fair value of financial assets and liabilities traded in active markets is
based on quoted market prices at the close of trading on the reporting date. The Portfolio uses the last traded market
price for securities where the last traded price falls within the bid-ask spread. In circumstances where the last traded price
is not within the bid-ask spread, the Manager determines the point within the bid-ask spread that is most representative
of fair value based on the specific facts and circumstances. The fair value of bonds is determined using mid-market pricing
derived from bid and ask prices provided by independent security pricing services or recognized investment dealers. The
fair value of futures contracts is based on the settlement price assigned by the exchange. Gains and losses arising from
changes in the fair value of financial assets or liabilities are presented in the statement of comprehensive income. The
Portfolios' policy is to recognize transfers into and out of the fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or
change in circumstances giving rise to the transfer.
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation
techniques. The Portfolios may use a variety of methods and make assumptions that are based on market conditions
existing at each reporting date. Valuation techniques include the use of comparable recent arm’s length transactions,
reference to other instruments that are substantially the same and other commonly used methods by market participants
which make the maximum use of observable inputs.
30
d) Impairment of Financial Assets
At each reporting date, each Portfolio assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset at amortized cost
is impaired. If such evidence exists, the Portfolio recognizes an impairment loss as the difference between the amortized
cost of the financial asset and the present value of future cash flows discounted using the assets original effective interest
rate. Impairment losses on financial assets at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss
decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized.
e) Foreign Currency Translation
The Portfolios’ functional and presentation currency is the Canadian dollar.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates
that transactions occur. Foreign currency assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into the
functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing at the measurement date. Foreign exchange gains and losses
relating to cash are presented as ‘Gain (loss) on foreign currency’ and those relating to other financial assets and liabilities
are presented within ‘Net realized gain (loss) on investments and derivatives’ and ‘Net change in unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) in value of investments and derivatives’ in the statement of comprehensive income.
f) Cash
Cash is comprised of deposits with financial institutions.
g) Margin Deposit
Cash collateral provided by each Portfolio is identified in that Portfolio’s statement of financial position as ‘Margin deposit’.
h) Forward Currency Contracts
Each Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts for purposes of minimizing currency exposure or to establish an
exposure to a particular currency. The value of forward currency contracts entered into by a Portfolio is recorded as the
difference between the contract rate and the current forward rates at the measurement date, applied to the contract's
notional amount and adjusted for counterparty risk. The change in the fair value of forward currency contracts is included
in ‘Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments and derivatives’ in the statement of
comprehensive income. Upon closing of a contract, the gain or loss is included in ‘Net realized gain (loss) on investments
and derivatives’ in the statement of comprehensive income.
i) Futures Contracts
Futures contracts are contractual obligations to buy or sell financial instruments or commodities on a future date at a
specified price established in an organized market. Subsequent to initial recognition, changes in fair value are presented
in ‘Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of futures’ in the statement of comprehensive income.
When futures contracts are closed out, the gain or loss is included in ‘Net realized gain (loss) on futures’ in the statement of
comprehensive income.
j) Commissions and Other Portfolio Transaction Costs
Commissions and other portfolio transaction costs are incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or
disposal of an investment, which include fees and commissions paid to agents, advisors, brokers and dealers. Such costs
are expensed when incurred.
k) Income and Expense Allocation
The net assets of each series of each Portfolio are computed by calculating the value of that series’ proportionate share of
that Portfolio’s assets less that series’ proportionate share of that Portfolio’s common liabilities less series specific liabilities,
if any. Expenses directly attributable to a series are charged to that series. Other income, expenses and gains/losses are
allocated based on a reasonable allocation methodology which will include allocations based on the assets of the
Portfolios or the number of shareholders in the Portfolios or other methodology the Manager determines is fair.
31
l) Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Attributable to Holders of Redeemable Shares per Share
The increase (decrease) in net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares per share is calculated by dividing the
increase (decrease) in net assets attributable to the class divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
in that class during the period. Refer to Note 7 for the calculation.
m) Taxation
Each Portfolio is a class of shares of the Corporation. Income, expenses and capital gains and losses of each Portfolio are
consolidated, as a single entity, in determining the Corporation’s taxable income and amount of taxes payable as a whole.
Any taxes payable or recoverable by the Corporation are allocated to the Portfolios and their various series’.
The Corporation qualifies as a mutual fund corporation under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”). The general
income tax rules associated with a public corporation apply to a mutual fund corporation with the exception that taxes
payable on net realized capital gains are refundable when its shares are redeemed or when it pays capital gains dividends
out of its capital gains dividend account to its shareholders, such that in substance the Corporation is not taxable on
capital gains. Similarly, the Corporation is subject to Part IV tax on dividends received from Canadian corporations,
however, they are refundable once paid to shareholders. As a result, the Corporation does not record income taxes related
to capital gains and dividends from Canadian corporations.
Interest and foreign income are taxed at normal corporate rates applicable to mutual fund corporations and can be
reduced by permitted deductions for tax purposes. All of the Corporation’s expenses including management fees and
operating expenses will be taken into account in determining its overall tax liability, if any.
As of December 31, 2013, the Corporation has accumulated the following non-capital losses available for utilization
against net income for tax purposes in future years and capital losses available for utilization against capital gains. The tax
benefit of the non-capital losses has not been reflected in the financial statements.
Non-Capital Loss* Capital Loss**
$9,866,690 $nil * Non-capital losses can be offset against income in future years for up to 20 years. ** Net Capital losses can be carried forward indefinitely for offset against gains in future periods.
3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The preparation of financial statements requires management to use judgment in applying its accounting policies and to make
estimates and assumptions about the future. The following discusses the most significant accounting judgments and estimates that
the Manager has made in preparing the financial statements:
Use of Estimates
Fair Value measurement of derivatives and securities not quoted in an active market
The Portfolios may hold financial instruments that are not quoted in active markets, including derivatives. Fair value of such
instruments is determined using valuation techniques and may be determined using reputable pricing sources (such as pricing
agencies) or indicative prices from market makers. Broker quotes as obtained from the pricing sources may be indicative and not
executable or binding. Where no market data is available, a Portfolio may value positions using its own models, which are usually
based on valuation methods and techniques generally recognized as standard within the industry. The models used to determine
fair values are validated and periodically reviewed by experienced personnel of the Manager, independent of the party that created
them.
Models use observable data, to the extent practicable. However, areas such as credit risk (both own and counterparty), volatilities
and correlations require the Manager to make estimates. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair
values of financial instruments. The Portfolios consider observable data to be market data that is readily available, regularly
distributed and updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in
the relevant market. Refer to Note 5 for further information about the fair value measurement of the Portfolio's financial
instruments.
32
Use of Judgments
Classification and Measurement of Investments and Application of the Fair Value Option
In classifying and measuring financial instruments held by the Portfolios, the Manager is required to make significant judgments
about whether or not the business of the Portfolios is to invest on a total return basis for the purpose of applying the fair value
option for financial assets under IAS 39, Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement (IAS 39). The most significant
judgments made include the determination that certain investments are held-for-trading and that the fair value option can be
applied to those which are not.
4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the normal course of business, each Portfolio is exposed to a variety of financial risks: credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk
(including interest rate risk, other price risk and currency risk). Please refer to Discussion of Financial Instruments (an addendum to
Note 4 on pages 13 and 25 of this report) for each Portfolio’s specific risk disclosure.
(I) Credit Risk
The Portfolios may be exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for
the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Where a Portfolio invests in debt instruments and derivatives, this represents
the main concentration of credit risk.
All transactions in listed securities are settled or paid for upon delivery using approved brokers. The credit risk related to the
associated receivables is considered limited, as delivery of securities sold is only made once the broker has received payment.
Payment is made on a purchase once the securities have been received by the broker. The trade will fail if either party fails to meet
its obligation. However, there are risks involved in dealing with custodians or prime brokers who settle trades and in rare
circumstances, the securities and other assets deposited with the custodian or broker may be exposed to credit risk with regard to
such parties. In addition, there may be practical problems or time delays associated with enforcing a Portfolio's rights to its assets in
the case of an insolvency of any such party. The Portfolios are also exposed to counterparty credit risk on cash, margin deposits and
other receivable balances.
(II) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that a Portfolio will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. Each
Portfolio is exposed to cash redemptions and as such, retains sufficient cash to fund anticipated redemptions. The Portfolios aim to
retain sufficient cash to maintain adequate liquidity including coverage of obligations related to short sales and all current liabilities.
In addition, each Portfolio generally invests in securities that are highly liquid and where there is an observable market price that is
quoted by multiple dealers.
(III) Market Risk
The Portfolios’ investments are subject to market risk which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.
A. Currency Risk
The Portfolios invest in financial instruments and enter into transactions that are denominated in currencies other than
the Canadian dollar. Consequently, the Portfolios are exposed to currency risk, which is the risk that the fair value or future
cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Portfolios may enter
into foreign exchange currency contracts to reduce their foreign currency exposure.
B. Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. A Portfolio may hold securities with fixed interest rates that expose that Portfolio to fair
value interest rate risk.
33
C. Price Risk
The Portfolios are exposed to price risk, which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk). The
Portfolios’ investments are subject to the risk of changes in the prices of equity securities, bonds and derivatives.
(IV) Concentration Risk
Concentration risk arises as a result of the concentration of exposures within the same category, whether it is geographical location,
product type, industry sector or counterparty type.
(V) Capital Risk Management
Shares issued and outstanding are considered to be the capital of the Portfolios. The Portfolios do not have any specific capital
requirements on the subscription and redemption of shares, other than certain minimum subscription requirements. Shareholders
are entitled to require payment of the net asset value per share of a Portfolio for all or any of the shares of such shareholder by
giving written notice to the Manager. The written notice is irrevocable and must be received no later than 4:00 p.m., EST, on the
valuation day upon which the shares are to be redeemed (a "Redemption Date"). The redeeming shareholder will receive payment in
respect of any shares surrendered for redemption on or before the 3rd business day immediately following a Redemption Date,
subject to the Manager’s right to suspend redemptions in certain circumstances.
(VI) Fair Value Measurement
Each Portfolio classifies fair value measurements within a hierarchy which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of
the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a Portfolio can access at the
measurement date,
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either
directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.
If inputs of different levels are used to measure an asset's or liability's fair value, the classification within the hierarchy is based on the
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Manager is responsible for making decisions relating to the investment of the Portfolios’ assets and providing key management
personnel.
The Arrow Diversified Fund owns 41,748 Series F Shares of the Diversified Portfolio, with a market value of $450,878. This represents 1.4% of
net assets of the Diversified Portfolio.
As of June 30, 2014, the number of shares owned by Arrow for each Portfolio is summarized as follows:
Portfolio Number of Shares Amount % of Net Assets Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series A 529 $9,956 0.0% Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series F 4,768 $94,740 0.0% Diversified Portfolio – Series A 500 $5,115 0.0% Diversified Portfolio – Series F 4,500 $48,600 0.0%
As of June 30, 2013, the number of shares owned by Arrow for each Portfolio is summarized as follows:
Portfolio Number of Shares Amount % of Net Assets Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series A 522 $8,003 0.0% Canadian Focus Portfolio – Series F 4,699 $75,203 0.1% Diversified Portfolio – Series A 500 $5,361 0.0% Diversified Portfolio – Series F 4,500 $50,417 0.1%
Management Fee and Performance Bonus
The management fee paid to the Manager by the Canadian Focus Portfolio is 1.65% per annum on Series A, 0.65% per annum on
Series F Shares and 1.95% on Series L Shares. The management fee paid to the Manager by the Diversified Portfolio is 2.00% per
annum on Series A Shares, 1.00% per annum on Series F Shares and 2.30% on Series L Shares.
No portion of the management fee charged to a Portfolio is borne by Series I Shares of the Portfolios. A holder of Series I Shares of a
Portfolio pays a negotiated management fee directly to the Manager.
Each Portfolio will pay to the Manager in respect of each fiscal year of the Portfolio ended December 31 a performance bonus per
Share (the “Performance Bonus”) equal to 20% of the amount by which the Adjusted Net Asset Value per Share at the end of the
fiscal year exceeds the highest year end Adjusted Net Asset Value per Share previously achieved. For these purposes, “Adjusted Net
Asset Value per Share” of any series of shares of a Portfolio means the Net Asset Value per share of that series at the end of a fiscal
year without giving effect to the accrual of any Performance Bonus, plus the aggregate amount of all distributions previously
declared on a per Share basis in respect of such series of Shares. The Performance Bonus for a Portfolio is calculated and accrued
35
each day the Net Asset Value of the Portfolio is calculated, but is only payable at the end of the fiscal year of the Portfolio based on
the actual annual performance of the Portfolio.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Performance Bonus is payable with respect to any fiscal year of a Portfolio unless the Adjusted
Net Asset Value per Share at the end of such fiscal year exceeds the Net Asset Value per share at the end of the preceding year (or on
the date the Shares are first issued), plus the aggregate amount of all distributions previously declared on a per share basis, by a
minimum of 6%.
The Performance Bonus is estimated and accrued each Valuation Date, calculated as at the end of each fiscal year-end of the
Portfolios and paid within 15 business days thereafter.
Each Portfolio is responsible for all operating expenses incurred by or on behalf of that Portfolio. If the Manager provides any of
these services, it shall be entitled to fees for such services not exceeding fees charged by arm’s length third parties for the provision
of similar services.
The Portfolio Advisor and Portfolio Sub-Advisor will be remunerated by the Manager out of the Management Fee and the
Performance Bonus.
Accrued management fees and performance fees (plus HST) included on the statement of financial positions are as follows:
June 30, 2014 December 31, 2013 January 1, 2013

8. TRANSITION TO IFRS
The effect of the Portfolios’ transition to IFRS is summarized in this note as follows:
Transition Elections
The only voluntary exemption adopted by the Portfolios upon transition was the ability to designate a financial asset or financial
liability at fair value through profit and loss upon transition to IFRS. All financial assets designated at FVTPL upon transition (see
Note 2) were previously carried at fair value under Canadian GAAP as required by Accounting Guideline 18, Investment Companies.
Revaluation of Investments at FVTPL
Under Canadian GAAP, the Portfolios measured the fair values of their investments in accordance with Section 3855, Financial
Instruments - Recognition and Measurement, which required the use of bid prices for long positions and ask prices for short
positions, to the extent such prices are available. Under IFRS, the Portfolios measure the fair values of their investments using the
guidance in IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement (IFRS 13), which requires that if an asset or a liability has a bid price and an ask price,
then its fair value is to be based on a price within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of fair value. It also allows the use of
mid-market pricing or other pricing conventions that are used by market participants as a practical expedient for fair value
measurements within a bid-ask spread.
Reconciliation of Equity and Comprehensive Income as Previously Reported Under Canadian GAAP to IFRS
Canadian Focus Portfolio
Equity December 31, 2013 June 30, 2013 January 1, 2013 Equity as reported under Canadian GAAP $71,771,247 $63,996,059 $63,678,256 Revaluation of investments at FVTPL 151,584 284,008 164,028 Net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares $71,922,831 $64,280,067 $63,842,284

37
Comprehensive income For the year ended December 31, 2013
For the 6 months ended June 30, 2013
Comprehensive income as reported under Canadian GAAP $3,194,008 $2,912,600 Revaluation of investments at FVTPL 148,400 68,388 Increase (decrease) in net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares $3,342,408 $2,980,988
Classification of redeemable shares issued by the Portfolios
Under Canadian GAAP, the Portfolios accounted for their redeemable shares as equity. The features of each Portfolio’s redeemable
shares are not identical and consequently the shares, do not meet the conditions to be classified as equity. As a result, the Portfolios
obligations for net assets attributable to holders of redeemable shares are financial liabilities under IFRS, presented at the
redemption amounts.
Statement of cash flows
Under Canadian GAAP, the Portfolios were exempt from providing a Statement of Cash Flows. IAS 1 requires that a Statement of
Cash Flows be presented as part of a complete set of financial statements. As such, the Portfolios have presented a Statement of
Cash Flows in the interim financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013.
9. FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES IFRS 9, Financial Instruments
The final version of IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, was issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) in July 2014
and will replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 introduces a model for classification and
measurement, a single, forward-looking ‘expected loss’ impairment model and a substantially reformed approach to hedge
accounting. The new single, principle based approach for determining the classification of financial assets is driven by cash flow
characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held. The new model also results in a single impairment model being
applied to all financial instruments, which will require more timely recognition of expected credit losses. It also includes changes in
respect of own credit risk in measuring liabilities elected to be measured at fair value, so that gains caused by the deterioration of an
entity’s own credit risk on such liabilities are no longer recognized in profit or loss. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2018, however is available for early adoption. In addition, the own credit changes can be early applied in
isolation without otherwise changing the accounting for financial instruments. The Portfolios are in the process of assessing the
impact of IFRS 9 and have not yet determined when they will adopt the new standard.
