Janice and Ray Osmond 123 Main Street Anywhere, Canada Dear Janice and Ray, Personal Financial Planner's Comments This Retirement Plan has been prepared solely for your use in arranging your financial affairs to progress towards meeting your retirement objectives. The purpose of the retirement plan is to determine how you can use your financial resources to meet your retirement objectives, which are: to maintain your standard of living as measured by lifestyle expenditures of $100,000 per year in current dollars plus some inflation protection; and to enable the surviving spouse to be able to maintain his/her standard of living. Based upon the assumptions in the plan, you should be able to maintain lifestyle expenditures of $100,000 per year in current dollars plus inflation protection of 2% with a cushion of over $700,000. However, as illustrated in the Schedule of Alternative Expenditures, if inflation increase to just 3%, you cushion disappears. Based upon the assumptions in the plan, the surviving spouse should be able to maintain his/her standard of living. However, you will have to prepare and implement an estate plan that provides for a smooth transfer of assets: using named beneficiary designations, joint ownership and bequests as appropriate. The projections included in the plan are based upon certain principles for the use of tax-paid capital, tax-free savings accounts and registered retirement savings plan. The amounts of withdrawals and contributions in the projections are based upon these principles and I suggest that you use these amounts to guide your conversion of funds into income and your investment of excess funds. Retirement planning is an ongoing process and you will have to update your plan on a regular basis as investment returns, income taxes and your expenses change. I suggest that you revise your plan annually. I have prepared this Retirement Plan, which includes projections of post-retirement incomes from information and assumptions supplied by you. The assumptions used are not certain to occur and other events not reflected in the assumptions may occur. If events do not occur as assumed, the actual results achieved may vary significantly from the projected outcome. You will appreciate that tax-planning advice is based upon interpretation of the law including the general antiavoidance rule and experience with the revenue authorities. Accordingly, the conclusions reached and views expressed are often matters of opinion, rather than certainty. Yours very truly, David David Gobeil, CA, CFP November 14, 2011 Page 2

9. Strategies to Meet Your Objectives The purpose of the retirement plan is to determine how you can use your financial resources to meet your retirement objectives, which are: to maintain your standard of living as measured by lifestyle expenditures of $100,000 per year in current dollars plus some inflation protection; and to enable the surviving spouse to be able to maintain his/her standard of living. Based upon the assumptions in the plan, you should be able to maintain lifestyle expenditures of $100,000 per year in current dollars plus inflation protection of 2% with a cushion of over $700,000. However, as illustrated in the Schedule of Alternative Expenditures, if inflation increase to just 3%, you cushion disappears. Based upon the assumptions in the plan, the surviving spouse should be able to maintain his/her standard of living. However, you will have to prepare and implement an estate plan that provides for a smooth transfer of assets: using named beneficiary designations, joint ownership and bequests as appropriate. The projections included in the plan are based upon certain principles for the use of tax-paid capital, tax-free savings accounts and registered retirement savings plan. The amounts of withdrawals and contributions in the projections are based upon these principles and I suggest that you use these amounts to guide your conversion of funds into income and your investment of excess funds. Retirement planning is an ongoing process and you will have to update your plan on a regular basis as investment returns, income taxes and your expenses change. I suggest that you revise your plan annually. The End November 14, 2011 Page 11
