(TSX: SSF.UN) – Brompton Funds (the “Manager”) is pleased to announce an increase in monthly distributions for record dates from April to June 2022 for the class A units (the “Class A Units”) of Symphony Floating Rate Senior Loan Fund (the “Fund”):

		Ticker	Amount Per Class A Unit
	Symphony Floating Rate Senior Loan Fund	SSF.UN	$0.0425

Record Dates and Payment Dates are as follows:

	Record Date	Payment Date
	April 29, 2022	May 13, 2022
	May 31, 2022	June 14, 2022
	June 30, 2022	July 15, 2022

The new distribution rate for the Class A Units of the Fund amounts to $0.51 per annum, or a 6.15% yield based on the TSX closing price of $8.29 on April 21, 2022, represents a 6.25% increase from the previous level. 3-month LIBOR has increased 0.85% year-to-date in 2022, rising from 0.21% on December 31, 2021, to 1.06% on April 18, 2022. As 3-month LIBOR is a common reference rate for interest payments on floating rate senior loans, the Manager expects higher future income for the Fund due to anticipated higher loan interest payments. The Manager will continue to monitor LIBOR for future changes which may affect the Fund’s distribution levels. The Fund’s Class A Units have paid 125 consecutive monthly distributions since inception on November 1, 2011 for total distributions of $6.41 per Class A Unit.

The Fund announces a distribution in the amount of US$0.04 per Class U Unit for the above noted record and payment dates, representing a distribution rate of 6.28% of net asset value (“NAV”) per annum based on a NAV of US$7.64 on April 21, 2022. The Fund’s Class U Units have paid 125 consecutive monthly distributions since inception on November 1, 2011 for total distributions of US$6.41 per Class U Unit.

Unitholders are reminded that the Fund offers a distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) on the Class A Units and Class U Units which provide unitholders with the ability to automatically reinvest distributions, commission free, and realize the benefits of compound growth. Unitholders can enroll in a DRIP program by contacting their investment advisor.

You will usually pay brokerage fees to your dealer if you purchase or sell units of the investment fund on the Toronto Stock Exchange or other alternative Canadian trading system (an “exchange”). If the units are purchased or sold on an exchange, investors may pay more than the current net asset value when buying units of the investment fund and may receive less than the current net asset value when selling them.

There are ongoing fees and expenses associated with owning units of an investment fund. An investment fund must prepare disclosure documents that contain key information about the Fund.
