On January 1, 2018, the name of the Fund was changed from the Hirsch Performance Fund to the Arrow Performance Fund.

On July 1, 2016, the Fund began offering Class F units. Returns prior to July 1, 2016 reflect Class A units. The fees for the Class A and Class F units are the same.

On January 1, 2011, the Fund changed its performance fee calculation methodology from a unitholder level to a fund level. Prior to January 1, 2011, performance numbers for the Fund represented the hypothetical returns of a unitholder as if the unitholder had invested on the first day of the Fund’s operations with all distributions reinvested in the Fund and after deductions for performance fees, management fees and operating expenses. Starting on January 1, 2011 performance numbers for periods greater than one year are the compounded annualized returns and are calculated based on the last official monthly valuation, net of fees.

Fund inception date is September 11, 1997.

Commissions, trailing commissions, management, performance and other fees may be associated with this investment. Investors should read the offering memorandum before investing. Unless otherwise stipulated returns are for Class A units in Canadian funds. Except as otherwise noted returns are historical compounded total returns including changes in the unit value and reinvestment of all dividends or distributions and do not take into account the sales, redemption, distributions or optional charges or income tax payable by the investor that may affect the compound growth rate and are not intended to reflect the future value of the fund. Past performance may not be repeated. Offering of units in this fund are made pursuant to the Confidential Offering Memorandum (OM) only to those investors who meet certain eligibility or minimum purchase requirements. Important information, including this fund’s fundamental investment objective is contained in the OM which may be obtained from Arrow Capital Management Inc.
