PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
To a Short Form Base Shelf Prospectus dated December 4, 2020

This prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") qualifies the distribution (the "Offering") of US$260,000,000 principal amount of 3.200% Notes due December 17, 2030 (the "Notes") of CI Financial Corp. ("CI" or the "Company"). Interest on the Notes will be paid at the rate set out above, semi-annually in arrears in equal instalments on June 17 and December 17 of each year commencing June 17, 2021. If any of the aforesaid dates upon which interest on the Notes is payable is not a business day, such interest shall be payable on the next business day thereafter. See "Description of the Notes". The effective yield on the Notes if held to the Par Call Date (as defined below) will be 3.090%.

CI currently has outstanding US$700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.200% Notes due December 17, 2030 (the "Original 2030 Notes"). The Original 2030 Notes were issued on December 17, 2020 at a price of 99.873% of their principal amount. The Notes offered hereby have the same terms as the Original 2030 Notes, except for the issue date and the price to the public. The Notes offered under this prospectus supplement will have the same CUSIP number as the Original 2030 Notes and will trade interchangeably with such notes immediately upon settlement. Upon closing of this offering, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, together with the Original 2030 Notes, and assuming all Notes offered hereby are sold, will be US$960,000,000.

We may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time and from time to time at our option at the applicable redemption price indicated under "Description of the Notes — Optional Redemption" in this Prospectus Supplement. We may also redeem all of the Notes if certain changes affecting Canadian withholding taxes occur. We will be required to make an offer to purchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of repurchase upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined herein). The Notes are not subject to any sinking fund provisions.

The Notes will constitute senior unsecured debt of the Company and will rank pari passu with all other unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company. The Notes will not be obligations of or guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. As a result, the Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. The Notes will be issued in fully registered form only, in denominations of US$2,000 and additional multiples of US$1,000.

The Notes will not be listed on any exchange or quotation system and, consequently, there is no market through which the Notes may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell the Notes purchased under this Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of the Notes in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Notes, and the extent of issuer regulation. See "Risk Factors".

The offering price of the Notes was determined by negotiation between us and BofA Securities, Inc., as representative of the several underwriters (collectively, the "Underwriters") named in Schedule II to the underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") between us and the Underwriters. See "Underwriting".

We are permitted, under the multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States ("U.S.") and Canada, to prepare this Prospectus Supplement in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements. Purchasers of the Notes should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. Financial statements included or incorporated herein have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"), and may be subject to foreign auditing and auditor independence standards, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

Owning the Notes may subject you to tax consequences both in the United States and Canada. See "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations" and "Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" in this Prospectus Supplement.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that CI is incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada, that all but one of its officers and directors are residents of Canada and that a substantial portion of the assets of CI and said persons are located outside the United States. See "Enforcement of Certain Civil Liabilities" in this Prospectus Supplement and in the accompanying short form base shelf prospectus dated December 4, 2020 (the "Base Shelf Prospectus").

NEITHER THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "SEC") NOR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES REGULATOR HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE NOTES OR PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

Subject to applicable laws, the Underwriters may, in connection with the Offering, effect transactions intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Notes at levels other than those which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. See "Underwriting".

The Underwriters conditionally offer the Notes for sale in the U.S., subject to prior sale, if, as and when issued by us and accepted by the Underwriters in accordance with the conditions contained in the Underwriting Agreement referred to under "Underwriting" below. CIBC World Markets Corp., National Bank of Canada Financial Inc. and TD Securities (USA) LLC are affiliates of financial institutions which are lenders to the Company and/or certain subsidiary entities of the Company. Consequently, the Company may be considered a "connected issuer" to each of the foregoing Underwriters for purposes of applicable Canadian securities laws. See "Underwriting".

The Underwriters expect to deliver the Notes on or about January 19 , 2021 in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company and its direct and indirect participants (each, a "Participant"), including Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. and Clearstream Banking S.A.. See "Book Entry Settlement and Clearance".

Our registered and head office is located at 2 Queen Street East, Twentieth Floor, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 3G7.

If the description of the Notes varies between this Prospectus Supplement and the Base Shelf Prospectus, you should rely on the information in this Prospectus Supplement.

Investors should rely only on the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the Base Shelf Prospectus. The Company is not, and the Underwriters are not, making an offer to sell the Notes in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. Investors should not assume that the information appearing in this Prospectus Supplement, the Base Shelf Prospectus or any documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front of those documents, as the Company's business, operating results, financial condition and prospects may have changed since that date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no trustee, paying agent or any other agent under the Indenture (as defined below) makes any representation with respect to the accuracy or completeness of the information contained herein and shall have no liability whatsoever on its accuracy or completeness.

Unless otherwise specifically stated, all dollar amounts in this Prospectus Supplement are expressed in Canadian dollars. References to "Canadian dollars" or "$" are to lawful currency of Canada. References to "US$" are to lawful currency of the United States of America.

The following table sets forth the period end exchange rate, the average exchange rate and the high and low exchange rates of one Canadian dollar in exchange for U.S. dollars, based on the daily exchange rate for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, as reported by the Bank of Canada.

This Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus (including certain documents incorporated by reference therein, as supplemented hereby) contain statements that constitute "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable securities laws in each of the provinces of Canada and the respective policies, regulations and rules under such laws and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, "forward-looking statements") concerning anticipated future events, results, circumstances, performance or expectations with respect to CI and its products and services, including its business operations, strategy and financial performance and condition. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "believe", "expect", "foresee", "forecast", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "goal", "plan" and "project" and similar references to future periods, or conditional verbs such as "will", "may", "should", "could" or "would". These statements are not historical facts but instead represent management's beliefs regarding future events, many of which by their nature are inherently uncertain and beyond management's control. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements involve risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, among other things, the impact of: the COVID-19 pandemic; general economic and market conditions, including interest and foreign exchange rates; global financial markets; changes in government regulations or in tax laws; industry competition; technological developments and other factors described under "Risk Factors" in this Prospectus Supplement and "Risk Management" in the Q3 2020 MD&A (as defined below) which is incorporated by reference into this Prospectus Supplement. The material factors and assumptions applied in reaching the conclusions contained in these forward-looking statements include that the investment fund industry will remain stable and that interest rates will remain relatively stable. The foregoing list is not exhaustive and the reader is cautioned to consider these and other factors carefully and not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Except as otherwise stated, these statements are made as of the date of this document and, other than as specifically required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or alter any forward-looking statement, whether to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.

While we prepare our financial statements in accordance with IFRS, this Prospectus Supplement, the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein make reference to certain non-IFRS measures and industry metrics. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. This Prospectus Supplement also makes reference to industry metrics such as "AUM" (or "assets under management") and "AUA" (or "assets under advisory"), which are operating metrics used in our industry. We believe that these financial measures provide information that is useful to investors in understanding the Company's performance and facilitate a comparison of quarterly and full year results from period to period. See "Key Performance Drivers" and "Non-IFRS Measures" in our Q3 2020 MD&A (as defined below) for further information regarding these measures.

This Prospectus Supplement is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus solely for the purpose of the Offering.

You should read the entire Prospectus Supplement, the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein carefully, including disclosure in the AIF and in our annual and interim management's discussion and analysis and notes to our financial statements.

THE OFFERING

The summary below describes the principal terms of the Notes. Certain of the terms and conditions described below are subject to important limitations and exceptions. A more detailed description of the terms and conditions of the Notes is contained under the heading "Description of the Notes" in this Prospectus Supplement. As used in this section, "CI," "we," "us" and "our" refer to CI Financial Corp. and not to its consolidated subsidiaries.


Issuer		CI Financial Corp., a company incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada.
Securities		US$260,000,000 principal amount of 3.200% Notes due 2030 (the "Notes") (US$960,000,000 total outstanding 3.200% Notes due 2030, including the Original 2030 Notes).
Maturity Date		December 17, 2030.
Interest		The Notes will bear interest from December 17, 2020 at 3.200% per annum. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually on June 17 and December 17 of each year, commencing on June 17, 2021, in each case, to the person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on the 14th calendar day immediately preceding such interest payment date. Interest payable at the maturity of the Notes will be payable to registered holders of the Notes to whom principal is payable.
Use of Proceeds		We estimate that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately US$260.5 million, excluding accrued interest on the Notes to be paid by the purchasers of the Notes in the amount of US$739,555.56 and after deducting the Underwriters' discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
		We currently expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to redeem the $325,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 3.520% debentures maturing July 20, 2023 (the "2023 Debentures"). See "Use of Proceeds" in this Prospectus Supplement.
Ranking		The Notes will be our direct, unsecured senior obligations and will rank pari passu with all of our other existing and future unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding. We may, without the consent of the holders of the Notes, issue additional notes having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes. See "Risk Factors" in this Prospectus Supplement. Any additional notes having such similar terms, together with the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, will constitute a single series of notes provided, that if such additional notes are not fungible with the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such further additional notes will have a separate CUSIP number so that they are distinguishable from the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes.
		As of September 30, 2020, we had approximately $1.96 billion of total debt outstanding, none of which was secured and none of which was at our subsidiaries. The Notes will not be obligations of or guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. As a result, the Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. See "Description of the Notes" and "Risk Factors" in this Prospectus Supplement.


Optional Redemption		We may redeem the Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes), as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at the applicable redemption price set forth under "Description of the Notes — Optional Redemption" in this Prospectus Supplement, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption. Any such redemption and notice of such redemption may, in our discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent.
Redemption of Notes for Changes in Canadian Tax Law		In the event that certain changes affecting Canadian withholding taxes occur, we will have the option to redeem the Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes), in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and Original 2030 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption and any Additional Amounts (as defined in this Prospectus Supplement) that may then be payable. See "Description of the Notes — Tax Redemption" in this Prospectus Supplement.
Additional Amounts		Subject to certain exceptions, we generally will pay such Additional Amounts as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each holder of Notes after withholding or deduction of taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Government of Canada or of any province or territory thereof or any authority or agency therein or thereof having the power to tax in respect of such Notes will not be less than the amount that such holder would have received if such taxes had not been withheld or deducted. See "Description of the Notes — Additional Amounts" in this Prospectus Supplement.
Purchase Upon a Change of Control		Upon the occurrence of both (i) a Change of Control (as defined in "Description of the Notes" in this Prospectus Supplement) and (ii) the rating of the Notes is lowered to a rating below an investment grade rating by the number of Rating Agencies (as defined in "Description of the Notes" in this Prospectus Supplement) within a specified period, we will be required to make an offer to purchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase.
Covenants		The Notes and the Indenture contain certain covenants applicable to us. See "Description of the Notes" in this Prospectus Supplement.
No Established Trading Market		As with the Original 2030 Notes, the Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or quoted on any automated dealer quotation system . While a trading market may have developed after the issuance of the Original 2030 Notes, we cannot assure you that an established trading market for the Notes will be maintained or will exist at all. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any market for the Notes.
Form and Denomination		The Notes will be issued in the form of one or more global securities that will be deposited with, or on behalf of the depositary, The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). Interests in the global securities will be issued only in denominations of US$2,000 or integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. Except as described under "Description of the Notes" in this Prospectus Supplement, Notes in definitive form will not be issued.
Governing Law		The Indenture is and the Notes will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
Trustee and Paying Agent		Computershare Trust Company, N.A.
Co-Trustee		Computershare Trust Company of Canada

Before deciding whether to invest in any Notes, investors should consider carefully the risks set out herein and incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement, including disclosure in the AIF, Annual MD&A, Q3 2020 MD&A and notes to our financial statements. These documents discuss, among other things, known material trends and events, and risks or uncertainties that may reasonably be expected to have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations or on the Notes.

There are certain risks inherent in our activities and in an investment in the Notes, including the following, which investors should consider carefully before investing in the Notes. This description of the risks does not include all possible risks, and there may be other risks of which we are not currently aware or that we currently do not deem to be material risks.

Your ability to transfer the Notes may be limited by the absence of an established trading market for the Notes and there can be no assurance that a trading market for the Notes will be maintained or will exist at all or as to the liquidity of any trading market that might be maintained or will exist at all for the Notes.

Although the Notes will become part of the same series as the outstanding Original 2030 Notes, we cannot assure you that an active trading market will be maintained or will exist at all for the Notes. While a trading market may have developed for the Original 2030 Notes, as with the Original 2030 Notes, the Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or quoted on any automated interdealer quotation system. We have been informed by the Underwriters that they presently intend to make a market in the Notes after this Offering is completed, as permitted by applicable laws and regulations. The Underwriters are not obligated, however, to make a market in the Notes and any market making may be discontinued at any time without notice at the sole discretion of the Underwriters. In addition, the liquidity of the trading market in the Notes and the market price quoted for the Notes may be adversely affected by, among other things, changes in the overall market for debt securities and by changes in our financial performance or prospects or in the prospects for companies in our industry generally. As a result, you cannot be sure that an active trading market will exist for the Notes or as to the liquidity of any trading market that may develop for the Notes.

The Notes will be effectively subordinated to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness and the Notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of our subsidiaries.

The Notes will be our direct, senior unsecured indebtedness and will rank pari passu with our other existing and future unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all our existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.

The Notes will not be obligations of or guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. As a result, the Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.

In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, administration, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any of our subsidiaries, the assets of an affected subsidiary could not be used to pay us or make payments on the Notes until after:

If any of the foregoing events were to occur, we cannot assure you that there will be sufficient assets to pay amounts due on the Notes. As a result, the holders of the Notes may, rateably, receive less than the holders of indebtedness of our subsidiaries.

A substantial portion of our operations are conducted through our subsidiaries, and our ability to service our debt depends to a certain extent on our receipt of distributions or other payments from our subsidiaries.

We conduct a significant amount of our operations through our subsidiaries. Although the Notes will be senior obligations of the Company, they will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of

our subsidiaries. The Indenture does not restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness. As we conduct a significant amount of our operations through our subsidiaries, our ability to pay the indebtedness we owe under or in respect of the Notes is dependent on distributions and other payments we receive from our subsidiaries and major investments. In the event that we do not receive distributions from our subsidiaries, we may be unable to make required principal and interest payments on our indebtedness, including the Notes.

We may not be able to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event for the Notes, subject to certain conditions, we will be required to offer to repurchase all outstanding Notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The source of funds for such a repurchase of the Notes will be our available cash or cash generated from our subsidiaries' operations or other potential sources, including borrowings, sales of assets or sales of equity. We cannot assure you that sufficient funds from such sources will be available at the time of any Change of Control Triggering Event in order to make required repurchases of Notes that are tendered. Our other debt instruments may contain provisions to the effect that certain change of control events will constitute an event of default thereunder entitling the lenders to accelerate any indebtedness outstanding thereunder and/or terminate any commitments thereunder. If the holders of the Notes exercise their right to require us to repurchase all outstanding Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event, the financial effect of this repurchase could cause a default under future debt instruments, even if the Change of Control Triggering Event itself would not cause a default. It is possible that we will not have sufficient funds at the time of the Change of Control Triggering Event to complete the required repurchase of such Notes and repayment of our other indebtedness.

Servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our substantial debt.

Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness, including the Notes, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not continue to generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to service our debt and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at that time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations.

If a trading market does develop, changes in our credit ratings could adversely affect the market price at which you will be able to sell your Notes prior to maturity.

We expect that the Notes will be rated by one or more nationally recognized statistical Rating Agencies. Any Rating Agency that rates the Notes may lower its rating or decide not to rate the Notes in its sole discretion. Actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings may affect the market value of the Notes. In general, if our credit rating is downgraded, the market value of the Notes may decrease. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning Rating Agency. No person is obligated to maintain any rating on the Notes, and we therefore cannot assure you that the ratings assigned to the Notes will not be lowered or withdrawn by the assigning Rating Agency at any time thereafter.

Furthermore, the credit ratings assigned to the Notes may not reflect the potential impact of all risks related to trading markets, if any, for, or trading value of, the Notes. In addition, real or anticipated changes in our credit ratings will generally affect trading markets, if any, for, or trading value of, the Notes. Accordingly, you should consult your own financial and legal advisors as to the risks entailed by an investment in the Notes and the suitability of investing in the Notes in light of your particular circumstances.

We may still incur substantially more debt in the future or take other actions which would intensify the risks discussed above and could have other negative consequences.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional debt in the future, subject to any restrictions that may be contained in future debt instruments, some of which may be secured debt. We will not be restricted under the terms of the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture (as defined below) and the Second Supplemental Indenture (as defined below) from incurring additional debt, securing existing or future debt, recapitalizing our debt or taking a number of other actions that are not limited by the terms of the Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture that could have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments on the Notes when due. Further, the degree to which we are leveraged on a consolidated basis could have important consequences, including:

We have in the past made, and in the future may make, acquisitions and investments that could divert management's attention, result in operating difficulties and otherwise disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business, operating results or financial position.

Pursuing strategic acquisitions or investment opportunities is one of our key growth strategies and has been an important contributor to our growth to date. Any transactions that we enter into could be material to our financial condition and results of operations. The process of acquiring another entity could create unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures.

Acquisitions and investments may also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities, which could adversely affect our share price, or the incurrence of debt with restrictive covenants that limit our future uses of capital in pursuit of business opportunities.

In addition, we may not be able to identify acquisition or investment opportunities that meet our objectives, or to the extent that such opportunities are identified, we may not be able to negotiate terms with respect to the acquisition or investment that are acceptable to us.

The following table sets forth our consolidated capitalization as at September 30, 2020 on an actual basis and on an as adjusted basis after giving effect to the issuance of US$700,000,000 principal amount of the Original 2030 Notes on December 17, 2020 and the initial application of the net proceeds thereof to repay outstanding indebtedness under our Credit Facility, to the pending redemption in full of $200,000,000 of our 2.775% debentures due November 2021 (the "2021 Debentures") on or about January 18, 2021 and to the issuance of the Notes offered hereunder and the intended redemption of our 2023 Debentures . You should read the following table in conjunction with our Annual MD&A, Q3 2020 MD&A and the consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference into this Prospectus Supplement. Other than the issuance of the Notes pursuant to this Prospectus Supplement or as otherwise set forth below, there have been no other material changes to our share and loan capital on a consolidated basis since September 30, 2020.

Notes:

(1): As at September 30, 2020, we had six tranches of unsecured debentures outstanding, comprised of: (i) $394 million 2.645% debentures due 2020 (the "2020 Debentures"), (ii) the 2021 Debentures, (iii) the 2023 Debentures, (iv) $350 million 3.215% debentures due 2024, (v) $450 million 3.759% debentures due 2025 and (vi) $250 million 3.904% debentures due 2027. The 2020 Debentures matured on December 7, 2020. We financed the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the 2020 Debentures on maturity by drawing down on our Credit Facility, which indebtedness was repaid from the net proceeds of our offering of US$700 million principal amount of the Original 2030 Notes completed on December 17, 2020. As of January 13, 2021, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. See Note 3 to our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. We gave notice of redemption of the 2021 Debentures on December 18, 2020 and intend to redeem the 2021 Debentures on January 18, 2021, and we intend to redeem the 2023 Debentures with the net proceeds from this offering of Notes.
(2): Reflects the aggregate principal amount of Notes offered hereby and does not give effect to underwriting discounts, offering expenses payable by us, or unamortized debt issuance costs.
(3): For the purposes of this table, the US$700 million aggregate principal amount of Original 2030 Notes issued by us on December 17, 2020 has been converted to Canadian dollars using the Bank of Canada daily average exchange rate on January 13, 2021of US$1.00 = $1.271, and the aggregate principal amount of Notes offered hereby has been converted to Canadian dollars using the Bank of Canada daily average exchange rate on January 13, 2021 of US$1.00 = $1.271.
(4): Represents the application of proceeds of the Original 2030 Notes issued by us on December 17, 2020, in Canadian dollars, to cash and cash equivalents after the repayment of $385 million in outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility.

The net proceeds to us from the sale of the Notes under this Prospectus Supplement are estimated to be approximately US$260,493,800, excluding accrued interest on the Notes to be paid by the purchasers of the Notes in the amount of US$739,555.56 and after deduction of the Underwriters' fees and the estimated expenses of the Offering. The Underwriters' fees and the expenses of the Offering will be paid out of the proceeds of the Offering.

The net proceeds to us from the sale of the Notes under this Prospectus Supplement will be used to redeem the $325,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 2023 Debentures.

The following description of the particular terms of the 3.200% Notes due December 17, 2030 offered hereby (referred to in the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus as "Debt Securities") supplements the description of the general terms and provisions of the Debt Securities included in the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus. This description of the Notes supplements and, to the extent it is inconsistent, replaces the Description of Debt Securities in the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus. The terms and provisions of the Notes are the same as the Original 2030 Notes, except for the issue date and the issue price.

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this prospectus supplement have the meanings assigned in the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus or the Indenture. In this "Description of the Notes," the terms "CI Financial Corp.," "we," "our," "us" or the "Company" refer to CI Financial Corp., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, and do not include our subsidiaries.

The Notes will be issued on the same terms and conditions as the Original 2030 Notes, except for the issue date and issue price, under the base indenture dated as of December 17, 2020, among us, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the "Base Indenture") as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture thereto dated as of December 17, 2020 (the "First Supplemental Indenture"), pursuant to a second supplemental indenture thereto to be dated as of the date of the issuance of the Notes (the "Second Supplemental Indenture" and, collectively with the Base Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, the "Indenture").

The Notes will have the same terms and conditions as the Original 2030 Notes, which were all issued under the First Supplemental Indenture, except for the issue date and the issue price, and will be consolidated to form a single series and be fully fungible with the Original 2030 Notes. The Notes will mature on December 17, 2030, unless we redeem or repurchase the Notes prior to that date, as described below under "— Optional Redemption," "— Tax Redemption" or "— Change of Control." The Notes will be our senior unsecured indebtedness and will rank equally with our other existing and future unsubordinated unsecured indebtedness from time to time outstanding. The Notes will be issued in fully registered form only, in denominations of US$2,000 and additional multiples of US$1,000. Principal of and interest on the Notes will be payable, and the transfer of Notes will be registrable, through DTC, New York, New York.

The Company may, without the consent of the holders of the Notes, issue additional notes having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes. Any additional notes having such similar terms, together with the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, will constitute a single series of notes under the Indenture. In the event that additional notes are not fungible with the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional notes will be issued with a separate CUSIP or other applicable identifying number so that they are distinguishable from the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes.

As used in this "Description of the Notes," "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law or regulation to close in the City of New York or the City of Toronto, Ontario.

The Notes will be our senior unsecured indebtedness and will rank equally with our other existing and future unsubordinated unsecured indebtedness from time to time outstanding. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $1.96 billion of total debt outstanding, none of which was secured and none of which was at our subsidiaries. The Notes will not be obligations of or guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. As a result, the Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.

The Notes will bear interest from December 17, 2020 at the rate of 3.200% per annum.

Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually on June 17 and December 17 of each year, commencing on June 17, 2021, in each case, to the person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on the 14th calendar day immediately preceding such interest payment date (whether or not a Business Day). Interest

payable at the maturity of the Notes will be payable to registered holders of the Notes to whom principal is payable.

Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

If any interest payment date or redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after such interest payment date or redemption date. If the maturity date of the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal of the Notes may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after the maturity date.

Interest payments for the Notes will include accrued interest from and including the Issue Date or from and including the last date in respect of which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding the interest payment date or the maturity date, as the case may be.

The Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) will be redeemable in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, prior to the Par Call Date, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

plus, in each case, any interest accrued but not paid to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

Commencing on September 17, 2030 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes) (the "Par Call Date") the Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) are redeemable at our option, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date.

"Remaining Scheduled Payments" means the remaining scheduled payments of principal of, and interest on, the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes called for redemption that would be due after the related redemption date but for that redemption (as if such Notes and Original 2030 Notes were redeemed on the Par Call Date).

"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the yield, which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated "H.15" or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity, for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (or if no maturity is within three months before or after the maturity date, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounded to the nearest month) or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated by us on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date.

"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes and

the Original 2030 Notes (assuming for this purpose that the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes mature on the Par Call Date).

"Independent Investment Banker" means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that redemption date.

"Reference Treasury Dealer" means three primary U.S. Government securities dealers in New York City appointed by the Company (each, a "Primary Treasury Dealer").

"Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by us, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to us by that Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding that redemption date.

Any such redemption and notice of such redemption may, in our discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

The Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) will be subject to redemption as a whole, but not in part, at our option at any time, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior written notice, at 100% of the aggregate principal amount, together with accrued interest thereon to the redemption date, in the event we have become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, any Additional Amounts (as defined below) as a result of a change in the laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) of Canada (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), any change in any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or regulations, or a judicial decision rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not made, taken or reached in respect of us), which change is announced or becomes effective on or after the date of the applicable prospectus supplement, provided that we determine, in our business judgment, that the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to us (not including substitution of the obligor under the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes).

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, unless we have exercised our right to redeem the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes as described above under "— Optional Redemption," holders of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase all or any part (equal to US$2,000 and additional multiples of US$1,000) of such holder's Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the "Change of Control Offer") on the terms set forth in the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes. In the Change of Control Offer, we will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, we will be required to deliver a notice to holders of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes and the Trustee describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (the "Change of Control Payment Date"), pursuant to the procedures required by the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes and described in such notice. We will be required to comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, we will

be required to comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the Change of Control provisions of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes by virtue of such conflicts.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, we will be required, to the extent lawful, to:

The Paying Agent will promptly pay to each holder of Notes and Original 2030 Notes properly tendered the purchase price for such Notes, and, for Notes in definitive form, the Trustee will promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of US$2,000 and additional multiples of US$1,000. We will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by us, and such third party purchases all Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

If holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and we, or any third party making such an offer in lieu of us as described above, purchase all of the Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders, we or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days' prior notice, provided that such notice is given not more than 30 days following such repurchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) that remain outstanding following such purchase on a date specified in such notice (the "Second Change of Control Payment Date") and at a price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes repurchased to, but not including, the Second Change of Control Payment Date.

For purposes of the foregoing discussion of a repurchase of Notes at the option of holders, the following definitions are applicable:

"Below Investment Grade Rating Event" means the rating of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes is lowered to below an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies (as defined below), if there are less than three Rating Agencies, or by two out of three of the Rating Agencies, if there are three Rating Agencies (the "Required Threshold"), on any day within the 60-day period (which 60-day period will be extended so long as the rating of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by such number of Rating Agencies which, together with Rating Agencies which have already lowered their ratings on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes as aforesaid, would aggregate in number the Required Threshold, but only to the extent that, and for so long as, a Change of Control Triggering Event would result if such downgrade were to occur) after the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a Change of Control and (b) public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control.

"Change of Control" means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, other than any such sale to its subsidiaries or affiliates or to any of their respective successors or (2) the acquisition by any Person or group of related persons for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (a "Group") acting jointly or in concert, of control or direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the voting shares (measured by voting power rather than the number of shares) of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (1) we become a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the voting shares of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company's voting shares immediately prior to that transaction, or (B) immediately following that transaction, no Person or Group (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly of more than 50% of the voting shares (measured by voting power rather than the number of shares) of such holding company.

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of "all or substantially all" of our and our subsidiaries' properties or assets taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase "substantially all," there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of Notes to require us to repurchase such holder's Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of our and our subsidiaries' assets taken as a whole to another Person or Group may be uncertain.

"Change of Control Triggering Event" means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

"Investment Grade Rating" means a rating equal to or higher than BBB-(or the equivalent of any successor rating category of S&P) by S&P, BBB (low) (or the equivalent of any successor rating category of DBRS) by DBRS, Baa3 (or the equivalent of any successor rating category of Moody's) by Moody's, or the equivalent investment grade rating from any other Rating Agency.

"Moody's" means Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and any successor to its rating agency business.

"Paying Agent" means the Trustee or any other Person authorized by the Company to pay the principal of or interest on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes on behalf of the Company.

"Person" has the meaning set forth in the Indenture and includes a "person" as used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.

"Rating Agencies" means each of S&P and DBRS and, if a rating of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes is obtained from Moody's, shall also include Moody's, as long as, in each case, such entity has not ceased to rate the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes or failed to make a rating of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company's control; provided that if one or more of DBRS, S&P or Moody's, as applicable, ceases to rate the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company's control, the Company may select any other credit rating agency registered as a "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" with the SEC, as a replacement agency for such one or more of them, as the case may be.

"S&P" means S&P Global Ratings and any successor to its rating agency business.

"voting shares" of any specified Person as of any date means the capital stock of such Person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such Person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses or any provision of Rule 13(d)(3) or 13(d)(5) of the Exchange Act, a Person or Group shall not be deemed to beneficially own voting shares subject to a stock or asset purchase agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, warrant agreement or similar agreement (or voting, support, option or similar agreement related thereto) until the consummation of the acquisition of the voting shares in connection with the transactions contemplated by such agreement.

The Company will not amalgamate or consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or continue itself under the laws of any other statute or jurisdiction, or sell, transfer, convey or dispose of, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, and whether at the same time or over a period of time, all or substantially all of its

property to any other Person unless, (a) either the Company is the continuing or successor company following such transaction or the continuing or successor company, if other than the Company, is an entity organized and validly existing under the laws of Canada or any province thereof, the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and assumes all of the Company's obligations under the Indenture by supplemental indenture, and (b) at the time of, and after giving effect to, such transaction, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have happened and be continuing under the Indenture.

We will file with the Trustee and the SEC, and transmit to holders, such information, documents and other reports, and such summaries thereof, as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that, unless available on EDGAR, any such information, documents or reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act will be filed with the Trustee within 30 days after the same is filed with the SEC. The filing of such information, documents and other reports with the SEC shall be deemed to constitute filing of such information, documents and other reports with the Trustee.

The terms of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes or the terms of the Indenture with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by the Company, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of any holder of outstanding Notes for any of the following purposes:

The terms the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes or the terms of the Indenture with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by the Company, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any provisions of the Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes; provided that no such amendment, supplement or modification shall, without the consent of the holder of each of the outstanding Notes:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Trustee and the Co-Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any supplemental indenture which affects the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, as applicable.

The following events shall be "Events of Default" with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes:

The Indenture provides that, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (iv) above) shall occur and be continuing with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, either the Trustee or the holders of 25% in principal amount of the Notes (together with the Original 2030 Notes) then outstanding may declare the principal of and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes to be due and payable immediately by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by holders). If an Event of Default specified in clause (iv) above occurs and is continuing, then in every such case, the principal

amount of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes shall automatically, and without any acceleration or any other action on the part of the Trustee or any holder, become due and payable immediately.

All payments made by us under or with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Government of Canada or of any province or territory thereof or by any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (hereinafter "Taxes"), unless we are required to withhold or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. If we are so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, we will pay such additional amounts ("Additional Amounts") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount the holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted, provided that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a payment made to a holder (such holder, an "Excluded Holder"):

We will also (x) make such withholding or deduction and (y) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law. We will furnish to the holders of the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, within 30 days after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by us. In the event we fail to adequately remit to the appropriate taxing authority Taxes in respect of which Additional Amounts are payable, we will indemnify and hold harmless each holder (other than an Excluded holder) and upon written request reimburse each such holder for the amount of (A) any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, (B) any liability (including penalties,

interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, and (C) any Taxes imposed with respect to any reimbursement under (A) or (B), but excluding any such Taxes on such holder's net income.

At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes is due and payable, if we will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, we will deliver to the Trustee an officer's certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable, the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee or the Paying Agent to pay such Additional Amounts to holders on the payment date. Wherever in the Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

The Company may, at its option and at any time upon the satisfaction of certain conditions described below, elect to have all of its obligations discharged with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes ("Legal Defeasance") except for:

In addition, the Company may, at its option and at any time upon the satisfaction of certain conditions described below, elect to have its obligations released with respect to certain restrictive covenants in the Indenture with respect the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, including with respect to the covenant described in "— Change of Control," and thereafter any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a default with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, certain events (not including bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events pertaining to the Company) described under "— Events of Default" will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes:

The Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to the Notes and the Original 2030 Notes, when:

No director, officer, incorporator or shareholder of the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each holder by accepting Notes waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liability under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. will serve as Trustee under the Indenture and the Notes. Computershare Trust Company of Canada will serve as Co-Trustee under the Indenture and the Notes. Each of the Trustee, the Co-Trustee and their affiliates may provide other services to us in the ordinary course of their business.

The Notes and the Indenture will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

Under the Indenture, we will irrevocably appoint Puglisi & Associates as our agent for service of process in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture and the Notes and for actions brought under United States federal or state securities laws in any federal or state court located in the City of New York and submit to such jurisdiction.

"Person" means any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or government or agency or political subdivision thereof or other entity.

DTC, which we refer to along with its successors in this capacity as the "depositary," will act as securities depositary for the Notes. The Notes will be issued as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co., the depositary's nominee. One or more fully registered global security certificates, representing the total aggregate principal amount of the Notes, will be issued and will be deposited with the depositary or its custodian and will bear a legend regarding the restrictions on exchanges and registration of transfer referred to below.

Investors may elect to hold beneficial interests in the global Notes through either DTC, in the United States, or Clearstream, or Euroclear, in Europe, if they are participants of such systems, or indirectly through organizations that are participants in such systems. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their participants through customers' securities accounts in Clearstream's and Euroclear's names on the books of their respective depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers' securities accounts in the depositaries' names on the books of DTC.

DTC has advised us that it is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC holds securities that its participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC and facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly. The DTC rules applicable to its participants are on file with the SEC.

Clearstream advises that it is incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg as a professional depositary. Clearstream holds securities for its participating organizations ("Clearstream Participants") and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Clearstream Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Clearstream Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. Clearstream provides to Clearstream Participants, among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and borrowing. Clearstream interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. As a registered bank in Luxembourg, Clearstream is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Commission for the Supervision of the Financial Sector (Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier). Clearstream Participants are recognized financial institutions around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations, and may include the Underwriters. Indirect access to Clearstream is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Clearstream Participant, either directly or indirectly.

Distributions with respect to interests in the Notes held beneficially through Clearstream will be credited to cash accounts of Clearstream Participants in accordance with its rules and procedures.

Euroclear advises that it was created in 1968 to hold securities for participants of Euroclear ("Euroclear Participants") and to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear Participants through simultaneous electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates and any risk from lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Euroclear includes various other services, including securities lending and borrowing, and interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. Euroclear is operated by Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (the "Euroclear Operator"). All operations are

conducted by the Euroclear Operator, and all Euroclear securities clearance accounts and Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear Operator. Euroclear Participants include banks (including central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries, and may include the Underwriters. Indirect access to Euroclear is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear Participant, either directly or indirectly.

Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear Operator are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear and the related Operating Procedures of Euroclear, and applicable Belgian law (collectively, the "Terms and Conditions"). The Terms and Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within Euroclear, withdrawals of securities and cash from Euroclear, and receipts of payments with respect to securities in Euroclear. All securities in Euroclear are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance accounts. The Euroclear Operator acts under the Terms and Conditions only on behalf of Euroclear Participants, and has no records of or relationship with persons holding through Euroclear Participants.

Distributions with respect to the Notes held beneficially through Euroclear will be credited to the cash accounts of Euroclear Participants in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.

We will issue the Notes in definitive certificated form in exchange for beneficial interests in the applicable global security certificates if the depositary notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Notes, the depositary ceases to maintain certain qualifications under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days, or we determine, in our sole discretion, that the global security certificates shall be exchangeable. If we determine at any time that the Notes shall no longer be represented by global security certificates, we will inform the depositary of such determination who will, in turn, notify participants of their right to withdraw their beneficial interest from the global security certificates, and if such participants elect to withdraw their beneficial interests, we will issue certificates in definitive form in exchange for such beneficial interests in the global security certificates. Any global Note, or portion thereof, that is exchangeable pursuant to this paragraph will be exchangeable for security certificates, as the case may be, registered in the names directed by the depositary. We expect that these instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global security certificates.

As long as the depositary or its nominee is the registered owner of the global security certificates, the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of the global security certificates and all Notes represented by these certificates for all purposes under the Indenture. Except in the limited circumstances referred to above, owners of beneficial interests in global security certificates:

All payments on the Notes represented by global security certificates and all transfers and deliveries of related Notes will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the holder of such securities.

Ownership of beneficial interests in the global security certificates will be limited to participants or persons that may hold beneficial interests through institutions that have accounts with the depositary or its nominee. Ownership of beneficial interests in global security certificates will be shown only on, and the transfer of those ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary or its nominee, with respect to participants' interests, or any participant, with respect to interests of persons held by the participant on their behalf. Payments, transfers, deliveries, exchanges and other matters relating to beneficial interests in global security certificates may be subject to various policies and procedures adopted by the depositary from time to time. Neither we nor any trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the depositary's or any participant's records relating to, or for payments made on account of, beneficial interests in global security certificates, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of the depositary's records or any participant's records relating to these beneficial ownership interests.

Although the depositary has agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of interests in the global security certificates among participants, the depositary is under no obligation to perform or continue to perform these procedures, and these procedures may be discontinued at any time. We will not have any responsibility for the performance by the depositary or its direct participants or indirect participants under the rules and procedures governing the depositary.

The information in this section concerning the depositary, its book-entry system, Clearstream and Euroclear has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we have not attempted to verify the accuracy of this information.

Initial settlement for the Notes will be made in immediately available funds. Secondary market trading between DTC Participants will occur in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC rules and will be settled in immediately available funds using DTC's Same-Day Funds Settlement System. Secondary market trading between Clearstream Participants and/or Euroclear Participants will occur in the ordinary way in accordance with the applicable rules and operating procedures of Clearstream and Euroclear, as applicable.

Cross-market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly through DTC, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Clearstream Participants or Euroclear Participants, on the other, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC rules; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international clearing system by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines (European time).

Because of time-zone differences, credits of the Notes received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a DTC Participant will be made during subsequent securities settlement processing and dated the business day following the DTC settlement date. Such credits or any transactions in the Notes settled during such processing will be reported to the relevant Euroclear Participant or Clearstream Participant on such business day. Cash received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of sales of the Notes by or through a Clearstream Participant or a Euroclear Participant to a DTC Participant will be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in the relevant Clearstream or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement in DTC.

Although DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear have agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of Notes among participants of DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform such procedures and such procedures may be discontinued or changed at any time.

The following discussion summarizes the anticipated U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Notes. It applies only to U.S. Holders (as defined below) that acquire Notes in this Offering at their original issue price (which is generally expected to be the price to public indicated in the front of this Prospectus Supplement) and hold such Notes as capital assets (generally, property held for investment purposes). This section does not apply to holders subject to special rules, including brokers, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for securities holdings, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, banks, thrifts and other financial institutions, persons liable for alternative minimum tax, persons that hold an interest in an entity that holds the Notes, persons that will own, or will have owned, directly, indirectly or constructively, 10% or more (by vote or value) of our equity, persons that hold the Notes as part of a hedging, integration, conversion or constructive sale transaction or a straddle, or persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

This discussion does not purport to be a complete analysis of all of the potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to U.S. Holders in light of their particular circumstances. Further, it does not address any aspect of foreign, state, local or estate or gift taxation or the 3.8% Medicare tax imposed on certain net investment income. Each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisor as to the U.S. federal, state, local, foreign and any other tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes. This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), its legislative history, U.S. Treasury Regulations, rulings by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), and published court decisions, all as in effect as of the date hereof, and any of which may be repealed, revoked or modified (possibly with retroactive effect) so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below.

A "U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of the Notes who, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is a citizen or individual resident of the United States, a corporation (or other entity that is classified as a corporation) that is created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia, an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source, or a trust (i) if a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more U.S. persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) that validly elects to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If a partnership or other pass-through entity holds the Notes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner, beneficiary, or other stakeholder will generally depend on the status of that person and the tax treatment of the pass-through entity. A partner, beneficiary, or other stakeholder in a pass-through entity holding the Notes should consult its own tax advisor with regard to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of its investment in the Notes.

The Notes will be fungible with the Original 2030 Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes if the Notes are treated as issued in a "qualified reopening" of the Original 2030 Notes, which will occur if the Original 2030 Notes are treated as "publicly traded" and either (i) the Notes are issued with no more than a de minimis amount of original issue discount, or (ii) the yield of the Notes is not more than 110 percent of the yield of the Original 2030 Notes on their issue date. We expect, and the following discussion assumes, that the Notes will be treated as issued in a "qualified reopening" of the Original 2030 Notes. Consequently, the Notes will be part of the same "issue" as the Original 2030 Notes, and will have the same "issue date" and the same "issue price" as the Original 2030 Notes.

Except with respect to pre-issuance accrued interest in respect of the Notes (discussed below), payments of interest on a Note (including the amount of any taxes withheld on payments of interest and any Additional Amount paid with respect thereto) will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income at the time they are received or accrued, depending on the U.S. Holder's method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Interest paid or accrued on the Notes will generally be treated as foreign source "passive category

income" for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes, with certain limited exceptions. The rules governing foreign tax credits are complex, and U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the impact of a purchase of a Note on the availability of foreign tax credits in their particular circumstances.

A portion of the price paid for a Note will be allocable to stated interest that accrued prior to the date the Note is purchased (the "pre-issuance accrued interest"). On the first interest payment date, a portion of the stated interest received in an amount equal to the pre-issuance accrued interest generally will be treated as a return of the pre-issuance accrued interest and not as a payment of stated interest on the Note. Amounts treated as a return of the pre-issuance accrued interest will not be taxable when received but will instead reduce a holder's adjusted tax basis in the Note by a corresponding amount.

If a U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in the Notes is greater than its stated principal amount, such U.S. Holder will be treated as having acquired the Notes with "amortizable bond premium" equal in amount to such excess. A U.S. Holder may elect (with respect to the Notes and all of the U.S. Holder's other taxable obligations with amortizable bond premium held on or acquired by such holder after the first day of the first taxable year to which such election applies) to amortize such premium using a constant yield method over the remaining term of the Notes and may offset interest income otherwise required to be included in respect of the Notes during any taxable year by the amortized amount of such excess for the taxable year. A U.S. Holder who elects to amortize bond premium must reduce its tax basis in the Notes by the amount of the premium so amortized. This election, once made, may only be revoked with the consent of the IRS. If a U.S. Holder does not elect to amortize any bond premium and holds the Notes to maturity, then, in general, the holder will recognize a capital loss equal to the amount of such premium when the Notes mature.

A U.S. Holder generally will recognize gain or loss upon the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a Note in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount realized upon the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition (reduced by any amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, which will be treated as interest as described above under "Payments of Interest") and the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Note. A U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in a Note will generally equal the amount that the U.S. Holder paid for the Note, which basis will generally be reduced by any pre-issuance accrued interest previously received, any amortizable bond premium previously amortized by such U.S. Holder, and any payments on the Note other than interest. Any gain or loss that a U.S. Holder recognizes on a disposition of a Note will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the Note for more than one year. Long-term capital gain of U.S. Holders may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation. Such gain or loss will generally be treated as U.S. source income or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. A U.S. Holder's ability to deduct capital losses may be limited.

Certain U.S. Holders are required to report information relating to an interest in the Notes, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for Notes held in accounts maintained by certain financial institutions), by attaching a completed IRS Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets, with their tax return for each year in which they hold an interest in the Notes. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding information reporting requirements relating to their ownership of the Notes.

The following is, as of the date of this Prospectus Supplement, a summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable under the Tax Act to a prospective purchaser who acquires, as beneficial owner, Notes pursuant to the Offering and who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Tax Act and any applicable tax treaty or convention, (i) is not resident (and is not deemed to be resident) in Canada; (ii) does

not use or hold, and is not deemed to use or hold, the Notes in a business carried on (or deemed to be carried on) in Canada; (iii) is entitled to receive all payments (including interest and principal) made in respect of the Notes; (iv) is not a "specified shareholder" of CI (within the meaning of subsection 18(5) of the Tax Act) or a person that does not deal at arm's length with a "specified shareholder" (within the meaning of subsection 18(5) of the Tax Act) of CI, (v) deals at arm's length with CI and the Underwriters and any transferee resident (or deemed to be resident) in Canada to whom the purchaser disposes of Notes, (vi) is not affiliated with CI or the Underwriters, and (vii) holds the Notes as capital property (a "Non-Resident Holder"). Generally, Notes will be considered to be capital property to a Non-Resident Holder provided that the Non-Resident Holder does not acquire or hold the Notes in the course of carrying on a business in Canada (including one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade). Generally, a "specified shareholder" is a person that owns or is deemed to own (as provided for in the definition of "specified shareholder" in subsection 18(5) of the Tax Act), either alone or together with persons with whom the shareholder does not deal at arm's length for purposes of the Tax Act, shares of the capital stock of CI that either (a) give the holders of such shares 25% or more of the votes that could be cast at an annual meeting of the shareholders or (b) have a fair market value of 25% or more of the fair market value of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of CI (as applicable).

Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a Non-Resident Holder that is a non-resident insurer that carries on a business in Canada and elsewhere or an "authorized foreign bank" (as defined in the Tax Act), and this summary is not applicable to such Non-Resident Holders. This part of the summary is not applicable to Non-Resident Holders that are insurers carrying on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere.

This summary is based on the facts set out in this Prospectus Supplement, the current provisions of the Tax Act and counsel's understanding of the current administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency made publicly available prior to the date hereof. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the "Proposed Amendments") and assumes that all Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, no assurances can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as proposed, or at all. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changes in law or administrative policies or assessing practices, whether by legislative, administrative or judicial action or interpretation nor does it take into account tax legislation or considerations of any province, territory or foreign jurisdiction, which may be different from those discussed herein.

This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations applicable to an investment in Notes. The income and other tax consequences of acquiring, holding or disposing of Notes will vary depending on the purchaser's particular circumstances. Accordingly, this summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any purchaser. Purchasers should consult their own tax advisors for advice with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in Notes based on their particular circumstances.

Amounts paid or credited, or deemed to be paid or credited, as, on account of, or in lieu of payment of, or in satisfaction of, the principal of, interest on, or premium, bonus or penalty in respect of, Notes by CI to a Non-Resident Holder, including in respect of a repayment, redemption or purchase for cancellation of the Notes, will not be subject to Canadian withholding tax.

No Canadian withholding tax will apply to the proceeds received by a Non-Resident Holder on the disposition of a Note.

No taxes on income (including taxable capital gains) will be payable under the Tax Act by a Non-Resident Holder on principal, interest, premium, bonus or penalty on the Notes or on a disposition of Notes, including a repayment, redemption or purchase for cancellation.

BofA Securities, Inc. is acting as representative (the "Representative") of each of the Underwriters named below. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement, we have agreed to sell to the Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters has agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase from us, the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite its name below.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters have agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase all of the Notes sold under the Underwriting Agreement if any of the Notes are purchased. If an Underwriter defaults, the Underwriting Agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the nondefaulting Underwriters may be increased or the Underwriting Agreement may be terminated.

We have agreed to indemnify the Underwriters and their controlling persons against certain liabilities in connection with this Offering, including liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable Canadian securities laws, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The Underwriters are offering the Notes, subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by their counsel, including the validity of the Notes, and other conditions contained in the Underwriting Agreement, such as the receipt by the Underwriters of officer's certificates and legal opinions. The Underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

The Representative has advised us that the Underwriters propose initially to offer the Notes to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement and to certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of 0.35% of the principal amount of the Notes. After the initial offering, the public offering price, concession or any other term of the Offering may be changed.

We have agreed to pay the Underwriters a commission of 0.55% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The expenses of the Offering, not including the underwriting discount, are estimated at US$450,000 and are payable by us.

Offering. However, they are under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without any notice. We cannot assure the liquidity of the trading market for the Notes or that an active public market for the Notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the Notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the Notes may be adversely affected. If the Notes are traded, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending on prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, our operating performance and financial condition, general economic conditions and other factors.

We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made to investors on or about January 19, 2021, which will be the third business day following the date of this Prospectus Supplement (such settlement being referred to as "T+3"). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the U.S. Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes prior to the delivery of the Notes hereunder may be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially settle in T+3, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of Notes who wish to trade Notes prior to their date of delivery hereunder should consult their advisors.

We have agreed that we will not, until the closing date of the Offering, without first obtaining the prior written consent of BofA Securities, Inc., directly or indirectly, issue, sell, offer to contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of, any debt securities or securities exchangeable for or convertible into debt securities, except for the Notes sold to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

In connection with the Offering, the Underwriters may purchase and sell the Notes in the open market. These transactions may include short sales and purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the Underwriters of a greater principal amount of Notes than they are required to purchase in the Offering. The Underwriters must close out any short position by purchasing Notes in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if the Underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the Offering.

Similar to other purchase transactions, the Underwriters' purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the Notes or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Notes. As a result, the price of the Notes may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market.

Neither we nor any of the Underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the Underwriters make any representation that the Representative will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Given that each of CIBC World Markets Corp., National Bank of Canada Financial Inc. and TD Securities (USA) LLC is a direct or an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a Canadian chartered bank, which banks are lenders under the Credit Facility (the "Lenders"), the Company may be considered a "connected issuer" of CIBC World Markets Corp., National Bank of Canada Financial Inc. and TD Securities (USA) LLC within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. $0 is currently drawn under the Credit Facility. The Company is currently in compliance with the terms of the agreements governing the Credit Facility. Other than as disclosed in the accompanying Base Shelf Prospectus, as supplemented by this Prospectus Supplement, there has been no material change in the financial position of the Company since the indebtedness under the Credit Facility was incurred. The Lenders have had no involvement in the decision of the Company to distribute the Notes or the terms of such distribution although the Lenders may be advised of the Offering and the terms thereof. Neither

the Underwriters nor the Lenders will receive any benefits in connection with the Offering other than, in the case of the Underwriters, a fee set out in the Underwriting Agreement.

Some of the Underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, or may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the Underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. Certain of the Underwriters or their affiliates that have a lending relationship with us routinely hedge, and certain other of those Underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, such Underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the Notes offered hereby. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Notes offered hereby. The Underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA") or in the United Kingdom ("UK"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended, the "Prospectus Regulation"). Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA or in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA or in the UK may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

The following consolidated earnings coverage ratios are calculated for the 12 month periods ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The ratios give effect to the issuance of the Notes offered pursuant to this Prospectus Supplement (and the conversion of the principal amount of such Notes from US dollars to Canadian dollars at a rate of US$1.00 = $1.271) and the use of the proceeds thereof to redeem the 2023 Debentures, and the incurrence of additional indebtedness (including the US$700 million of the Original 2030 Notes issued by us on December 17, 2020 and use of a portion of the net proceeds thereof to repay indebtedness under the Credit Facility and pending redemption in full of the 2021 Debentures on or about January 18, 2021) since such dates as if such issuance, incurrence and repayments had occurred on October 1, 2019 and January 1, 2019, respectively. Our borrowing cost requirements amounted to approximately $61.9 million and $55.4 million for the 12 months ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Our pro forma borrowing cost requirements, after giving effect to the issue of the Notes offered pursuant to this Prospectus Supplement and the use of the proceeds thereof to redeem the 2023 Debentures, and the issue of the US$700 million of the Original 2030 Notes issued by us on December 17, 2020 and use of the proceeds thereof to repay indebtedness, would have amounted to $83.2 million and $77.2 million for the 12 months ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Our profit attributable to our shareholders before borrowing costs and income tax for the 12 months then ended was $765.3 million and $783.4 million, which is 9.2 and 10.1 times our pro forma borrowing cost requirements for such periods, respectively.

We are incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada and our registered and head office is in Canada. All but one of our directors and officers, and some of the experts named in this Prospectus Supplement, are residents of Canada or otherwise reside outside of the United States, and a substantial portion of their assets, and a substantial portion of our assets, are located outside the United States. We have appointed an agent for service of process in the United States, but it may be difficult for holders of securities who reside in the United States to effect service within the United States upon us or those directors, officers and experts who are not residents of the United States. Investors should not assume that a Canadian court would enforce a judgment of a U.S. court obtained in an action against us or such other persons predicated on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States or would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us or such persons predicated on the U.S. federal securities laws or any such state securities or "blue sky" laws. We have been advised by our Canadian counsel, Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, that a judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon civil liability under U.S. federal securities laws would probably be enforceable in Canada if the United States court in which the judgment was obtained has a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that would be recognized by a Canadian court for the same purposes. We have also been advised by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, however, that there is a substantial doubt whether an action could be brought in Canada in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon U.S. federal securities laws.

We filed with the SEC, concurrently with our Registration Statement on Form F-10, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, we appointed Puglisi & Associates as our agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC and any civil suit or action brought against or involving us in a U.S. court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of securities under the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus Supplement forms a part.

Debt Securities (unsecured)
Subscription Receipts
Preference Shares
Common Shares

CI Financial Corp. ("CI" or the "Corporation") may from time to time offer and issue the following securities: (i) unsecured debt securities of the Corporation ("Debt Securities"), (ii) subscription receipts of the Corporation ("Subscription Receipts"); and (iii) preference shares ("Preference Shares") and common shares ("Common Shares") of the Corporation ("Equity Securities") or any combination thereof. The Debt Securities, Subscription Receipts, and Equity Securities (collectively, the "Securities") offered hereby may be offered separately or together, in separate series, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be set forth in one or more shelf prospectus supplements (collectively or individually, as the case may be, a "Prospectus Supplement"). All information not included in this short form base shelf prospectus (the "Prospectus") will be contained in one or more Prospectus Supplements that will be delivered (where required) to purchasers together with this Prospectus, which delivery may be effected in the case of U.S. purchasers through the filing of such Prospectus Supplement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Corporation may sell at the initial offer price up to US$2,000,000,000 in the aggregate of Securities (or its equivalent in any other currency used to denominate the Securities based on the applicable exchange rate at the time of the offering) at any time during the 25-month period that this Prospectus, including any amendments hereto, remains valid.

The Corporation is a Canadian issuer that is permitted, under the multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States ("U.S.") and Canada, to prepare this Prospectus in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements. Purchasers of the Securities should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the U.S. Financial statements included or incorporated herein, if any, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"), and may be subject to foreign auditing and auditor independence standards, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

Purchasers of the Securities should be aware that the acquisition of the Securities may have tax consequences both in the U.S. and in Canada. Such consequences for purchasers who are resident in, or citizens of, the U.S. or who are resident in Canada may not be described fully herein or in any applicable Prospectus Supplement. Purchasers of the Securities should read the tax discussion contained in the applicable Prospectus Supplement with respect to a particular offering of Securities and consult their own tax advisors.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Corporation is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, that all but one of its officers and directors are residents of Canada and that a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation and said persons are located outside the U.S. See "Enforcement of Certain Civil Liabilities".

Kurt MacAlpine, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Corporation, resides outside of Canada and has appointed CI Financial Corp. as agent for service of process at 2 Queen Street East, Twentieth Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5C 3G7. Purchasers are advised that it may not be possible for investors to enforce judgments obtained in Canada against any person that resides outside of Canada, even if the party has appointed an agent for service of process.

NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES REGULATOR HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE SECURITIES OR PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

The specific terms of the Securities in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement and may include, where applicable: (i) in the case of Debt Securities, the specific designation, aggregate principal amount, the currency or the currency unit for which the Debt Securities may be purchased, maturity, interest provisions, authorized denominations, offering price, covenants, events of default, any terms for redemption at the option of the Corporation or the holder, any exchange or conversion terms and any other specific terms; (ii) in the case of Subscription Receipts, the number of Subscription Receipts being offered, the offering price, the procedures for the exchange of the Subscription Receipts for Common Shares and any other specific terms; and (iii) in the case of Equity Securities, the designation of the particular class and series, the number of shares offered, the issue price and dividend rate, if any, and any other terms specific to the Equity Securities. A Prospectus Supplement may include specific variable terms pertaining to the Securities that are not within the alternatives and parameters described in this Prospectus.

Each Prospectus Supplement will be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus for the purposes of securities legislation as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and only for the purposes of the distribution of the Securities to which the Prospectus Supplement pertains.

This Prospectus does not qualify for issuance any Securities in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to one or more underlying interests including, for example, an equity or debt security, a statistical measure of economic or financial performance including, but not limited to, any currency, consumer price or mortgage index, or the price or value of one or more commodities, indices or other items, or any other item or formula, or any combination or basket of the foregoing items. For greater certainty, this Prospectus may qualify for issuance Securities in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to recognized market benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR or U.S. federal funds rate, or to published rates of a central banking authority or one or more financial institutions, such as the prime rate or a bankers' acceptance rate.

The Corporation may sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals and may also sell the Securities to one or more purchasers directly or through agents. The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent engaged by the Corporation in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, the method of distribution of such Securities, including, to the extent applicable, the proceeds to the Corporation and any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents and any other material terms of the plan of distribution. See "Plan of Distribution". The offering of the Securities is subject to the approval of certain legal matters on behalf of the Corporation.

The Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices or at non-fixed prices. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, the Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale (including, without limitation, sales deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 — Shelf Distributions, including sales made directly on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") and the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") or other existing trading markets for the Securities), at prices determined by reference to the prevailing price of a specified security in a specified market or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers, in which case the compensation payable to an underwriter, dealer or agent in connection with any such sale will be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate price paid for the Securities by the purchasers is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriter, dealer or agent to the Corporation. The price at which the Securities will be offered and sold may vary from purchaser to purchaser and during the period of distribution.

Subject to any applicable securities legislation, and other than in relation to an "at-the-market" distribution, in connection with any offering of the Securities (unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement), the underwriters or agents may over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities offered at a higher level than that which might exist in the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be interrupted or discontinued at any time. See "Plan of Distribution".

The issued and outstanding Common Shares are listed and posted for trading on the TSX under the symbol "CIX". The Common Shares are also listed and posted for trading on the NYSE under the symbol "CIXX" as of November 17, 2020. On December 3, 2020, the last trading day prior to the date of this Prospectus, the closing price of the Common Shares was $16.88 per Common Share on the TSX and US$13.09 per Common Share on the NYSE.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Securities, other than the Common Shares, will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, unless so specified, there will be no market through which these Securities may be sold, and purchasers may not be able to resell such Securities purchased under this Prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Securities and the extent of issuer regulation. See "Risk Factors".

The head and registered office of the Corporation is located at 2 Queen Street East, Twentieth Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5C 3G7.

The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent engaged by the Corporation in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, the method of distribution of such Securities, including, to the extent applicable, the proceeds to the Corporation and any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents and any other material terms of the plan of distribution. Only underwriters so named in the Prospectus Supplement are deemed to be underwriters in connection with the Securities offered thereby.

If underwriters are used in the sale, the Securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase such Securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the Securities offered pursuant to the applicable Prospectus Supplement (other than those that may be subject to an over-allotment option, if applicable) if any of such Securities are purchased. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to underwriters, dealers or agents may be changed from time to time.

The Securities may also be sold directly by the Corporation at such prices and upon such terms as agreed to by the Corporation and the purchaser or through agents designated by the Corporation from time to time. Any agent involved in the offering and sale of the Securities in respect of which this Prospectus and an applicable Prospectus Supplement is delivered (where required) will be named, and any commissions payable by the Corporation to such agent will be set forth, in the Prospectus Supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in the Prospectus Supplement, any agent is acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

The Corporation may agree to pay the underwriters, dealers or agents a commission for various services relating to the issue and sale of any Securities offered hereby. Any such commission will be paid out of the general funds of the Corporation. Underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of the Securities may be entitled under agreements to be entered into with the Corporation to indemnification by the Corporation against certain liabilities, including liabilities under securities legislation, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, each series or issue of Debt Securities, Subscription Receipts and Preference Shares will be a new issue of securities with no established trading market. Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement relating to an issue of such Securities, such Securities will not be listed on any securities or stock exchange.

The following describes certain general terms and provisions of the Debt Securities. The particular terms and provisions of Debt Securities offered pursuant to any Prospectus Supplement, and the extent to which the

general terms and provisions described below may apply to such Debt Securities, will be described in such Prospectus Supplement.

The Debt Securities will be direct unsecured obligations of the Corporation and will be senior or subordinated indebtedness of the Corporation as described in the relevant Prospectus Supplement. The Debt Securities may be offered separately or together with Equity Securities or Subscription Receipts, as the case may be.

The Debt Securities will be issued under an indenture, as amended and supplemented, between the Company and Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as trustee (the "Canadian Indenture"), or under an indenture, as amended and supplemented, among the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as trustee and Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as co-trustee (the "U.S. Indenture" and, with the Canadian Indenture, each a "Trust Indenture" and together, the "Trust Indentures"). Each Trust Indenture has been filed with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada and with the SEC. The statements made below relating to the Trust Indentures and the Debt Securities to be issued thereunder are summaries of certain anticipated provisions thereof, are not complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all provisions of the applicable Trust Indenture. Debt Securities may also be issued under new indentures between the Corporation and a trustee or trustees, as will be discussed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement for such Debt Securities.

Each Trust Indenture may provide that Debt Securities may be issued thereunder up to the aggregate principal amount which may be authorized from time to time by the Corporation. Reference is made to the applicable Prospectus Supplement which will accompany this Prospectus for the terms and other information with respect to the offering of Debt Securities being offered thereby, including:

Debt Securities of a single series may be issued at various times with different maturity dates, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary.

The following sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the Subscription Receipts. The particular terms and provisions of the Subscription Receipts offered pursuant to any Prospectus Supplement, and the extent to which the general terms described below apply to those Subscription Receipts, will be described in such Prospectus Supplement.

Subscription Receipts may be offered separately or together with Equity Securities or Debt Securities, as the case may be. The Subscription Receipts will be issued under a subscription receipt agreement. A copy of the subscription receipt agreement will be filed by the Corporation with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada and with the SEC in the U.S. after it has been entered into by the Corporation and will be available electronically at www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov. Under the subscription receipt agreement, an original purchaser of Subscription Receipts will have a contractual right of rescission following the issuance of Common Shares to such purchaser upon the exchange of Subscription Receipts. The contractual right of rescission will entitle such original purchasers to receive the amount paid for the applicable Subscription Receipts upon surrender of the underlying Common Shares, if this Prospectus, the relevant Prospectus Supplement, and any amendment thereto, contains a misrepresentation or is not delivered (where required) to such purchaser, provided (i) the exchange takes place within 180 days of the date of the purchase under this Prospectus of such Subscription Receipts, and (ii) such remedy for rescission is exercised within 180 days of the

date the Subscription Receipts are issued. See "Purchasers' Statutory and Contractual Rights of Withdrawal and Rescission".

The particular terms of each issue of Subscription Receipts will be described in the Prospectus Supplement filed in respect of such Subscription Receipts. This description will include, where applicable (i) the number of Subscription Receipts, (ii) the price at which the Subscription Receipts will be offered, (iii) the procedures for the exchange of the Subscription Receipts into Common Shares, (iv) the number of Common Shares that may be issued upon exchange of each Subscription Receipt, (v) the designation and terms of any other Securities with which the Subscription Receipts will be offered, if any, and the number of Subscription Receipts that will be offered with each Security, and (vi) any other material terms and conditions of the Subscription Receipts. Securities issued upon the exchange of Subscription Receipts will be issued for no additional consideration.

The following is a brief summary of the Corporation's authorized share capital. The authorized share capital is established in the Corporation's articles of incorporation, as amended. This summary may not be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Corporation's articles of incorporation, as amended, a copy of which has been filed with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada and is available electronically at www.sedar.com.

The Corporation's authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares and an unlimited number of Preference Shares, issuable in series. As at November 27, 2020 there were 209,953,602 Common Shares issued and outstanding. No Preference Shares have been issued by the Corporation.

The Equity Securities may be offered separately or together with the Debt Securities or Subscription Receipts, as the case may be. The particular terms and provisions of the Equity Securities offered pursuant to a Prospectus Supplement and the extent to which these general terms and provisions apply will be described in such Prospectus Supplement.

Holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote per share at meetings of shareholders of the Corporation, to receive dividends if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors (subject to the rights of shares, if any, having priority over the Common Shares) and to receive pro rata the remaining property and assets of the Corporation upon its dissolution or winding up, subject to the rights of shares, if any, having priority over the Common Shares.

Each series of Preference Shares shall consist of such number of shares and have such rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions as may be determined by the Board of Directors prior to the issuance thereof. These will be described in a Prospectus Supplement prepared in connection with such issuance. Holders of Preference Shares, except as required by law or as provided in the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions of a particular series, will not be entitled to vote at meetings of shareholders of the Corporation. With respect to the payment of dividends and distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Preference Shares of each series shall rank on a parity with the Preference Shares of every other series and are entitled to preference over the Common Shares and any other shares ranking junior to the Preference Shares from time to time and may also be given such other preferences over the Common Shares and any other shares ranking junior to the Preference Shares as may be determined at the time of creation of such series.

The Common Shares are traded on the TSX under the symbol "CIX". The Common Shares are also traded on the NYSE under the symbol "CIXX" as of November 17, 2020. The following table sets forth the market price ranges and the aggregate volume of trading of the Common Shares on the TSX for the periods indicated:

The following table sets forth the market price ranges and the aggregate volume of trading of the Common Shares on the NYSE for the period indicated:

On December 3, 2020, the last trading day prior to the date of this Prospectus, the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX and the NYSE was $16.88 and US$13.09 per Common Share, respectively.

The Board of Directors has established a dividend policy pursuant to which the Corporation will authorize the declaration and payment of a fixed dividend to be paid to holders of Common Shares. Dividends are paid at the discretion of the Board of Directors and the dividend rate will be reviewed from time to time by the Board of Directors after giving consideration to CI's cash flow, financial position, net earnings, sales outlook and other relevant factors.

The Corporation has not sold or issued any Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares during the 12-month period ending on November 30, 2020 other than:

The Corporation has not sold or issued any Debt Securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Debt Securities during the 12-month period ending on November 30, 2020 other than on May 26, 2020, $450 million aggregate principal amount of debentures having a term of five years maturing in May 2025 and carrying an annual interest rate of 3.759% payable semi-annually.

To the knowledge of the Corporation, no person or entity beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or exercises control or direction over, more than 10% of the voting rights attached to the outstanding Common Shares.

Prospective investors in a particular offering of the Securities should carefully consider, in addition to information contained in the Prospectus Supplement relating to that offering, the information set forth in the section entitled "Risk Management" in the Corporation's most recent AIF and the section entitled "Risk Management" in the MD&A in respect of the Corporation's most recent annual financial statements and the MD&A in respect of the Corporation's most recent interim financial statements filed thereafter, each of which is incorporated by reference in this Prospectus.

The auditors of the Corporation are Ernst & Young LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, Licensed Public Accountants, located at 100 Adelaide Street West, P.O. Box 1, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 0B3. Ernst & Young LLP is independent with respect to the Corporation in accordance with the Rules of Professional Conduct of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario and in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

Computershare Investor Services Inc. acts as Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Common Shares and maintains registers of transfers of the Common Shares in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver. Computershare Trust Company, N.A. is the co-transfer agent of the Common Shares in the U.S. and maintains registers and transfers of the Common Shares at its offices in Louisville, Kentucky and Edison, New Jersey.

The Corporation is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada and its registered and head office is in Canada. All but one of the Corporation's directors and officers, and some or all of the experts named in this Prospectus, are residents of Canada or otherwise reside outside of the United States, and a substantial portion of their assets, and a substantial portion of the Corporation's assets, are located outside the U.S. The Corporation has appointed an agent for service of process in the U.S. but it may be difficult for holders of Securities who reside in the U.S. to effect service within the U.S. upon the Corporation or those directors, officers and experts who are not residents of the U.S. Investors should not assume that a Canadian court would enforce a judgment of a U.S. court obtained in an action against the Corporation or such other persons predicated on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state within the U.S. or would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against the Corporation or such persons predicated on the U.S. federal securities laws or any such state securities or "blue sky" laws. The Corporation has been advised by its Canadian counsel, Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, that a judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon civil liability under U.S. federal securities laws would probably be enforceable in Canada if the United States court in which the judgment was obtained has a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that would be recognized by a Canadian court for the same purposes. The Corporation has also been advised by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, however, that there is a substantial doubt whether an action could be brought in Canada in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon U.S. federal securities laws.

The Corporation filed with the SEC, concurrently with its Registration Statement on Form F-10, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, the Corporation appointed Puglisi & Associates as its agent for service of process in the U.S. in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC and any civil suit or action brought against or involving the Corporation in a U.S. court arising out of or related to or concerning an offering of Securities under this Prospectus.

The following documents have been filed with the SEC as part of the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part: (i) the documents listed under the heading "Documents Incorporated by Reference"; (ii) powers of attorney from our directors and officers, as applicable; (iii) the consent of Ernst & Young LLP; (iv) the consent of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP; (v) the Canadian Indenture; (vi) the U.S. Indenture and (vii) the statement of eligibility of Computershare Trust Company, N.A. on Form T-1. The Form F-X of the Company and the Form F-X of Computershare Trust Company of Canada have also been separately filed with the SEC. A copy of the form of subscription receipt agreement will be filed by post-effective amendment or by incorporation by reference to documents filed with, or furnished to, the SEC under the U.S. Exchange Act.
