Tax Information

The general information provided here is intended to assist Noranda Income Fund Unitholders with the tax status of cash distributions for income tax purposes. Unitholders should consult their tax advisor for advice pertaining to their particular circumstances.

A Noranda Income Fund Unitholder who holds units outside a tax deferred plan (e.g. RRSP, RRIF or RESP) will generally be required to include in computing income for tax purposes for a particular taxation year the portion of the distributions received that is "Taxable Income". A T3 income tax slip will be issued to all Unitholders in the first quarter of each year confirming the taxable portion of the distributions. The portion of the distributions classified as Return of Capital for income tax purposes are tax-deferred and will generally not be included in the computation of taxable income of a Unitholder until the units are sold.

Calculation of Adjusted Cost Base (ACB)
Upon the sale of units, a Unitholder is required to determine the Adjusted Cost Base ("ACB") of the Fund units sold by reducing the original purchase cost by any distributions received in the form of Return of Capital. The ACB is used to compute the gain or loss on the sale of the units.
