Amit Shah has been appointed Lead Portfolio Manager of the Canadian Equity Small Fund at QV Investors Inc. (“QV Investors”).

Until his departure from QV Investors on July 3, 2026, Mr. Kim will work closely with all three members of the portfolio management team to ensure a smooth transition.

This appointment does not affect the Fund’s investment objective, risk level or investment strategy.
