Other standards and amendments

--  IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, addresses classification and measurement    of financial assets and financial liabilities, and is effective January    1, 2015, with earlier adoption permitted. The new Standard limits the    number of categories for classification of financial assets to two:    amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also    replaces the models for measuring equity instruments. Equity instruments    are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair    value through other comprehensive income. IFRS 9 is not expected to have    a material impact on amounts recorded in the financial statements of    CPPI.--  IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement, clarifies that fair value is the price    that would be received on sale of an asset, or paid to transfer a    liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, at the    measurement date. IFRS 13 is not expected to have a material impact on    amounts recorded in the financial statements of CPPI.--  IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, has been amended to require    entities to separate items presented in other comprehensive income    ("OCI") into two groups, based on whether or not items may be recycled    to net income in the future. The amendment is effective for annual    periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012, with earlier application    permitted. IAS 1 is not expected to have a material impact on amounts    recorded in the financial statements of CPPI.
