Description of Advisory Firm As of January 1, 2022, The Roosevelt Investment Group, LLC (“Roosevelt”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coreint Private Wealth LLC (Corient), an indirect majority-owned subsidiary of CI Financial Corp. (CI or CI Financial) (TSX: CIX; OTC: CIXXF). See additional disclosures in Item 10. Roosevelt is an investment advisor registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and we trace our roots back to 1971 when P. James Roosevelt, a cousin of former President Theodore Roosevelt, founded the investment advisory firm, P. James Roosevelt, Inc., which managed assets of individuals and endowments, including several members of the Roosevelt family. The firm’s name was changed in 1993 to The Roosevelt Investment Group, Inc. In 2002, The Roosevelt Investment Group, Inc. merged into Sheer Asset Management, Inc., an investment advisory firm founded by Arthur Sheer in 1990, retaining The Roosevelt Investment Group, Inc. as the name of the combined firm. In 2020 the firm merged with and into The Roosevelt Investment Group, LLC, a sister company that was organized as part of a restructuring contemplated as part of the sale of the business to CI Financial Corp. The Roosevelt Investment Group, LLC was then acquired by Corient Private Wealth LLC, a subsidiary of CI Financial Corp. We have transitioned our Private Wealth clients and assets to Corient Private Wealth, our affiliated adviser and parent company, under an agreement where Corient will sub-advise the Private Wealth clients. This arrangement does not affect the services provided to you by Roosevelt or any other aspect of the relationship, including advisory service teams, investment management, fees, and expenses. See additional disclosures in Item 10.As of December 31, 2023, we advised approximately $3 billion. This includes approximately:
• $2,493,205,646 million in assets managed on a discretionary basis;
• $199,347,833 million in assets managed on a non-discretionary basis;
• $105,531,700 million in advisory only or model-based business. These are assets for which we advise on or provide a model portfolio to the program sponsor or overlay manager but have no trading discretion. Our Approach to Investing Rather than viewing risk as volatility, we characterize risk as the permanent loss of capital. We embrace the importance of capital protection and strive to provide investment strategies that seek to deliver diversification and insulation from downside market volatility through a benchmark-agnostic approach. Individual strategies may have specific guidelines or objectives and may vary in approach according to strategy mandate or investment style. The guidelines and objectives within individual strategies are described further in Item 8. Our investment strategies and services include: Equity Strategies: actively managed strategies that take a risk-oriented approach to investing by seeking to provide protection during market downturns. These strategies have the flexibility to invest across market capitalizations, equity

styles, and company domiciles. Fixed Income Strategies: actively managed, multi-sector fixed-income strategies. Certain fixed-income strategies utilize preferred securities and other high yield or investment grade securities to create a high yield portfolio. Our strategies are available as separately managed accounts. The specific strategies are discussed further in Item 8. March 2024 Page 6 of 24 Types of Advisory Services We offer the following advisory services: Adviser to Wrap Fee Programs We provide discretionary and non-discretionary investment advisory services to wrap fee clients participating in separately managed account (“SMA”) and model-based programs offered through broker-dealers or other investment advisors. Adviser to Wrap Fee Programs: Separately Managed Accounts (SMA) SMA client accounts are generally managed similarly to the management of CIRPW client accounts in the same investment strategy. However, SMA sponsors, and not Roosevelt, determine the suitability of the investment strategy for the client, as well as the suitability of the wrap structure and fee. Our compensation is generally calculated as a percentage of the assets managed for the client. Clients may seek to impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities, so long as the restrictions are consistent with the strategy’s investment style and process. These requests are viewed on a case-by-case basis. Clients may terminate Roosevelt Investments at any time. The procedures for termination and information regarding the refund of any prepaid fees are described in the SMA program sponsor’s brochure. Adviser to Wrap Fee Programs: Model Portfolios We serve as a model portfolio provider to several model-based program sponsors and overlay managers. As a model portfolio provider, our role is generally limited to providing the program sponsor or overlay manager with an investment model, which typically serves as a guide for investing their clients’ accounts. The program sponsor or overlay manager is responsible for investment decisions, including all trading and client interaction. The program sponsor or overlay manager may purchase or sell a security at the same time, prior to, or after Roosevelt buys or sells the same security for its discretionary clients. The resulting trading activity may affect the availability of securities in the marketplace and the securities’ prices. Roosevelt seeks to mitigate the potential conflict of this trading activity by pursuing the practices described in Item 12 regarding trade rotation. In programs where we serve solely as the model provider, we consider the assets to be non-discretionary. These assets are not considered Roosevelt regulatory assets under management, and therefore are excluded from our assets under management calculations. However, since we earn revenue from these accounts, and because their trading may impact our client accounts, we include them in our calculation of assets under advisement.
