Mutual Fund Rollover Transaction and Termination of the Partnership: Subject to the receipt of all required regulatory and other approvals, in order to provide Limited Partners with greater flexibility for liquidity and continuing management and rationalization of the portfolio, the General Partner currently intends, on or about January 22, 2010, to implement an exchange transaction pursuant to which the Partnership will transfer its assets to Creststreet Mutual Funds Limited (the "Mutual Fund Corporation"), an open-end mutual fund corporation managed by Creststreet. The Mutual Fund Corporation currently has three classes of mutual fund shares, each of which is a mutual fund for securities law purposes (a "Creststreet Fund") with its own investment objectives and strategies, including the Creststreet Resource Fund which invests primarily in equity securities of Canadian resource issuers. In exchange for the Partnership's assets, the Mutual Fund Corporation will issue Mutual Fund Shares of the Creststreet Resource Fund to the Partnership. Immediately thereafter, the Partnership will be dissolved and the Mutual Fund Shares will be distributed pro rata to Limited Partners. This exchange will occur on a "roll-over" basis and will not result in any tax consequences to Limited Partners. Limited Partners will be able to redeem their Mutual Fund Shares or switch to another Creststreet Fund at any time on or after May 28, 2010. A redemption of a Mutual Fund Share will generally result in a capital gain. A switch to another Creststreet Fund will not result in a capital gain or loss.
