In accordance with the terms of the offer, an amount equivalent to the transfer fees incurred, up to a maximum of $150, will be reimbursed to any client who transfers and invests all or part of a registered investment account such as an RRSP, TFSA, or RRIF with a minimum value of $5,000 (the "Eligible Account") from another financial institution to FlexiFonds de solidarité FTQ inc. ("FlexiFonds").
This Offer is valid for all existing or new FlexiFonds Clients who have an active account with FlexiFonds.

The reimbursement of transfer fees shall be equal to the lesser of: (i) the actual transfer fee for an Eligible Account; or (ii) a maximum amount of $150 per Eligible Account, whichever is less. There is no limit to the number of Eligible Accounts a Client can transfer during the Eligibility Period. Partial transfers from the same Eligible Account are eligible for a single reimbursement only.
All transfer fee refunds shall be made by issuing an equivalent amount of FlexiFonds shares, directly credited to a FlexiFonds account in accordance with the same investment instructions applicable to the proceeds of the Eligible Account being transferred. Any request to redeem or switch FlexiFonds units received within 90 days of the end of the transfer process shall result in the Offer being rendered null and void, and the Client will be required to repay all transfer fees refunded by FlexiFonds.
Transfer fees will be refunded in Canadian dollars after the transfer process is complete.
