4 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT To the Unitholders of Utility Split Trust, We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Utility Split Trust (the Fund ), which comprise the schedule of investments as at December 31, 2011, the statements of net assets as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for the years then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. MANAGEMENT S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. AUDITORS RESPONSIBILITY Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. OPINION In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

On December 7, 2006, an over-allotment option granted to agents was exercised for 240,000 Preferred Securities at 10 per security and 240,000 Capital Units at 15 per Unit. Agents fees and expenses of issue relating to the initial public offering totaled 1,762,000 and 4,701,409 for Preferred Securities and Capital Units respectively. On November 17, 2011, the holders of Capital Units of the Fund approved (i) a five-year extension of the Fund s termination date from December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2016, and (ii) a special retraction right to enable Capital Unitholders to retract their Capital Units prior to December 31, 2011 on the same terms that would have applied had the Fund redeemed all of the Capital Units as originally contemplated on the scheduled termination date of December 31, On December 16, 2011, the Fund completed the special retraction of those Capital Units that were deposited for retraction pursuant to the special retraction right. Each retracted Capital Unit received per Capital Unit retracted. The Fund s original 6% Preferred Securities matured on December 31, 2011 on the same terms as originally contemplated by their terms. Payment of the repayment amount, including interest, was made to the original Preferred Securityholders on January 3, On December 19, 2011, the Fund completed its offering of 1,203,576 Class B Preferred Securities at 10 per security for gross proceeds of approximately 12 million (the Offering ). Agents fees and expenses of issue relating to this offering totaled 586,073. Effective September 24, 2010, First Asset Investment Management Inc. assumed the role of manager and trustee of the Fund from First Asset Funds Inc. First Asset Investment Management Inc. (the Manager or Trustee ) is a wholly owned subsidiary of First Asset Funds Inc. First Asset Investment Management Inc. is also the investment adviser of the Fund ( Investment Adviser ). 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ). In applying Canadian GAAP, management may make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. Investments Investments are categorized as held for trading and are recorded at their fair value. In the case of publicly traded securities, fair value means the latest bid price. For bonds and debentures, fair value means the bid price provided by independent security pricing services. The difference between fair value and average cost, as recorded in the accounts, is shown as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments. Average cost is used to determine the gain or loss on investments sold. Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Distributions from income trusts are allocated between distributions received and interest on the Statements of Operations. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash and short-term investments with a term to maturity of less than three months from date of purchase. Cash and cash equivalents are categorized as held for trading and therefore are carried at fair value. Short-term investments are valued at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Income recognition The accrual method of recording income and expenses is followed with dividend income being recorded on the ex-dividend date. Transaction costs Transaction costs, such as brokerage commissions incurred in the purchase and sale of securities, are expensed and are recognized in the Statements of Operations. Foreign currency translation Investments at fair value and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange applicable on the valuation date. Investment transactions and income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange on the date of such transactions. The Fund is permitted to invest in forward currency contracts. The value of these forward contracts is recorded as the unrealized gain or loss that would be realized if the position was to be closed out. The value of the unrealized gain or loss is included in investments, at fair value. Upon maturity of the contracts, the difference between the carrying value and the fair value is included in realized gain (loss) on forward foreign currency contracts ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UTILITY SPLIT TRUST 9
12 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued Return of capital from income trust investments Distributions that are treated as a return of capital for income tax purposes are included in investment income and are adjusted for in the Statements of Operations and are used to reduce the average cost of the underlying investments on the Schedule of Investments. Total net results of operations per Capital Unit The total net result of operations per Capital Unit in the Statements of Operations represents the total net results of operations during the period, divided by the average number of Capital Units outstanding during the period. Net Assets per Capital Unit The Net Assets per Capital Unit is calculated as the value of the Fund s assets less its liabilities divided by the number of Capital Units outstanding of the Fund. Income taxes No provision for income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements as all income and gains are distributed to the unitholders. Preferred Securities The original Preferred Securities and Class B Preferred Securities (together Preferred Securities ) are carried at redemption value and are presented as liabilities in the Statements of Net Assets. The costs incurred to issue Preferred Securities are added with the Preferred Securities and are amortized over the term of the Preferred Securities. On redemption or early retraction of the Preferred Securities, any unamortized balance relating to these securities is written off. The fair value of the Class B Preferred Shares which is based on the Toronto Stock Exchange ( TSX ) market price on December 31, 2011, was 12,457,012 ( ,510,612 for original Preferred Securities). Other assets and liabilities Due from brokers and accrued income are designated as loans and receivables and recorded at cost or amortized cost. Similarly, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, Preferred Securities interest payable and distributions payable are designated as other liabilities and recorded at cost or amortized cost. Other assets and liabilities are short-term in nature and amortized cost approximates fair value. 3. NET ASSET VALUE For financial statement reporting purposes, the fair value of the Fund s investments are measured in accordance with CICA Handbook Section 3855: Financial Instruments Recognition and Measurement, which for publicly listed securities is based on the closing bid price on the recognized stock exchange on which the investments are listed or principally traded. Pursuant to National Instrument Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure, Net Asset Value for redemptions and subscriptions ( Net Asset Value ) is calculated based on the fair value of investments using the close or last traded price. The Net Asset Value per Unit calculated using the close or last traded price is as follows and any difference between the Canadian GAAP Net Assets and Net Asset Value is on account of the use of the last bid price for the valuation of investments for Canadian GAAP.

MANAGEMENT OF FINANCIAL RISKS In the normal course of business, the Fund is exposed to various financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk (consisting of interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk). The Fund s overall risk management program seeks to minimize potentially adverse effects of these risks on the Fund s financial performance by employing professional, experienced portfolio advisers, by monitoring daily the Fund s positions and market events, by diversifying the investment portfolio within the constraints of the investment guidelines and periodically may use derivatives to hedge certain risk exposures. To assist in managing risk, the Manager maintains a governance structure that oversees the Fund s investment activities and monitors compliance with the Fund s stated investment strategy, investment guidelines and securities regulations. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation or commitment that it has entered into with the Fund. As at December 31, 2011, the Fund has credit risk associated with its currency forward contracts. The credit risk is managed by selecting Schedule I Banks operating in Canada as counterparties to the currency forward contracts and by regular monitoring of credit exposures. As of December 31, 2011 the Fund has none ( %) of its Net Assets invested in short-term deposits (2010 short term deposits held with Royal Bank of Canada with a credit rating of AA- according to Standard & Poor s). The fair value of debt securities includes consideration of the creditworthiness of the debt issuer. The carrying amount for accrued income represents minimal credit risk exposure as it will be settled in the short term. The credit exposure of these assets is represented by their carrying amounts. All transactions executed by the Fund in listed securities are settled/paid for upon delivery using approved brokers. The risk of default is considered minimal, as delivery of securities sold is only made once the broker has received payment. Payment is made on a purchase once the securities have been received by the broker. The trade will fail if either party fails to meet its obligation. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund may not be able to settle or meet its obligation on time or at a reasonable price. As at December 31, 2011, approximately 14.30% ( %) of the Portfolio is invested in convertible debentures. Convertible debentures may be less liquid than other securities and involve the risk that the Investment Adviser may not be able to dispose of them at the current market prices. As such, it may be difficult to significantly alter the composition of the Fund s portfolio in a short period of time and the Fund s liability to fund redemptions, distributions and operating expenses may be impacted. The Investment Adviser works to mitigate this risk by focusing on only highly creditworthy issuers. The remaining 85.70% ( %) of the Portfolio holdings are considered readily realizable as they are actively traded on public exchanges. As well, the Fund s financial liabilities are short-term in nature and there is sufficient cash, or the ability to raise cash, to settle these amounts as they come due. 14 UTILITY SPLIT TRUST 2011 ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
17 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued Interest rate risk Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect future cash flows or fair values of financial instruments. The fund invests in interest-bearing financial instruments. As such, the Fund is exposed to the risk that the value of such financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in the prevailing levels of market interest rates. The tables below summarize the Fund s exposure to interest rate risk by remaining term to maturity as at December 31. Fair value Less than 1 year 1 3 years 318,240 1,611, years 1,007, ,550 Greater than 5 years 2,397, ,388 As at December 31, 2011, if the prevailing interest rates had been raised or lowered by 1%, assuming a parallel shift in the yield curve, with all other factors remaining constant, Net Assets could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by 143,661 or 0.84% of Net Assets ( ,405 or 0.31% of Net Assets). Currency risk Currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Fund invests primarily in Canadian dollar securities, which represents the functional currency of the Fund. As at December 31, 2011, 2.1% ( %) of the Fund s Net Assets are invested in securities which are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Fund. The Fund is hedged back to the Canadian dollar and, consequently, is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk. Other price risk Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market. All investments in securities present a risk of loss of capital. The maximum market price risk resulting from these investments is equivalent to their fair value. The value of the Portfolio will be influenced by factors which are not within the control of the Fund including the performance of the portfolio securities, the condition of the equity markets generally and other factors. Market price risk is mitigated through the careful selection and diversification of securities within the limits of the Fund s investment objectives and strategy as well as the daily monitoring of the Fund s investment portfolio by the Manager. By utilizing a split share structure, the unitholders of Capital Units receive leveraged exposure such that any appreciation or depreciation of the Fund s portfolio will be borne by the Capital Units. Accordingly, any increase or decrease in the value of the Fund s portfolio will result in a greater proportionate increase or decrease in the Net Asset Value of the Capital Units. One component of the Fund s investment strategy is the utilization of borrowings under a loan facility. By adding additional leverage, this strategy has the potential to enhance returns, but also involves additional risks. The Investment Adviser will manage this risk by reducing or eliminating the use of leverage and thus reducing the Fund s exposure to the portfolio of securities during times of market uncertainty. As at December 31, 2011, 89.58% ( %) of the Fund s Net Assets were traded on global stock exchanges. The impact on Net Assets of the Fund due to a 10% change in the S&P/TSX Capped Utility Total Return Index (the benchmark ), using a historical correlation between the return of the Fund s Units as compared to the return of the benchmark, as at December 31, 2011, with all other variables held constant, would be an increase or decrease of 285,013 (2010 2,288,519) respectively. Regression analysis has been utilized to estimate the historical correlation. The analysis uses daily data points from January 1, 2008 to December 31, The historical correlation may not be representative of the future correlation and, accordingly, the impact on Net Assets could be materially different ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UTILITY SPLIT TRUST 15
18 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued 12. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The Fund considers its capital to consist of redeemable Capital Units and Preferred Securities. Since the Offering, the Fund s objectives in managing its capital are (i) to provide Class B Preferred Securityholders with a fixed quarterly interest payment equal to 5.25% per annum on the 10 principal amount and to repay the principal amount on or about December 31, 2016 and (ii) to provide Capital Unitholders with tax efficient monthly distributions based on the dividends and distributions that the Fund receives on its portfolio and the opportunity to benefit from any increase in the dividends and distributions paid by utility issuers held in the Fund s portfolio. The Fund manages its capital in accordance with its investment objectives and strategies and the risk management practices outlined in note 11 while maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet distributions and redemptions. In order to manage its capital structure, the Fund may adjust the amount of distributions paid to securityholders. 13. INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS On December 12, 2011, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board ( AcSB ) made a decision to extend the deferral of the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ) by investment companies for an additional year to January 1, This extends the previous two-year deferral of IFRS to three years as compared to other publicly accountable entities. Consequently, IFRS will be applicable to the Fund for the fiscal year beginning January 1, At the transition date, the prior fiscal year financial statements will require restatement to IFRS for comparative purposes. The deferral is to provide time for the International Accounting Standards Board ( IASB ) to finalize its guidance on investment entities such that a final standard could be issued after January 1, 2013, the previously established changeover date for investment companies in Canada. The Fund is continuing with its orderly transition plan to meet the requirements to change over to IFRS. The Fund has reviewed the existing body of IFRS against its current policies under Canadian GAAP and has noted certain policy differences. The major changes identified include the classification of unitholders equity (puttable instruments) as a liability unless certain conditions are met, as well as more extensive note disclosure requirements. These changes will not have an impact on the Fund s results of operations or financial position. The process of evaluating the potential impact of IFRS on the financial statements is ongoing, as the IASB and the AcSB continue to issue new standards and recommendations. 16 UTILITY SPLIT TRUST 2011 ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
