Amendments to the Pender Canadian Equity Fund

PenderFund Capital Management Ltd. ("Pender") announces that it has expanded the geographic focus of the Pender Canadian Equity Fund (the "Fund") to include investments in securities outside of Canada. Pender has also adjusted the valuation frequency of the Fund from daily to weekly.

The Fund's investment portfolio is principally comprised of the securities of mature companies that the Fund's portfolio advisor believes will be able to sustain and grow cash flow over the long-term. The investment portfolio may also contain securities of companies that have a high potential for growth.

The portfolio advisor for the Fund is Dixon Mitchell Investment Counsel Inc., a Vancouver-based asset management firm.

The amendment was approved by the Fund's investment review committee and approved by unitholders at a Special Meeting of Unitholders held on May 5, 2015.
