TORONTO, Feb. 14, 2012 /CNW/ - Fidelity Capital Funding Canada Limited (the "General Partner"), the general partner of Fidelity Partnership 1996 (the "Partnership"), announces the dissolution of the Partnership effective on or before March 31, 2012. It had been previously announced that the Partnership had formally ceased operations on December 31, 2011 and would formally dissolve shortly afterwards, in accordance with its Partnership Agreement.
The board of directors of the General Partner passed a resolution to dissolve the partnership on or before March 31, 2012 pursuant to the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.
The final distribution was paid to the limited partners on January 17, 2012. The General Partner will act as receiver and liquidator of the assets of the Partnership and shall dispose of its assets as the General Partner considers appropriate to provide for the debts, liabilities and liquidation expenses of the Partnership. Out of the Partnership's proceeds of disposition, the General Partner will pay or provide for the payment of the debts and liabilities of the Partnership and liquidation expenses. There will be no remaining assets in the Partnership after settlement of all liabilities and there will be no further distributions to the limited partners. The General Partner will then dissolve the Partnership.
Fidelity's mutual funds are different and separate from the Partnership and are therefore not at all affected by this event.
