Corporate efforts will continue to afford the Corporation excellent opportunities to increase operating efficiency by better employing economies of scale as we refine our organizational structure. The Corporation will make efforts to be in a position to be better able to pay stable dividends continuously for the future periods. Dividend Policy - 1 - Our shareholders are entitled to receive interim and final dividends, which are recommended by our board and, in the case of final dividends, approved by our shareholders. Dividend Policy The Company currently intends to continue paying regular cash dividends on a quarterly basis. Dividend Policy The Company makes the maintenance of a stable dividend its first principle, giving due consideration to achieving a balance between returning profits to shareholders and to securing sufficient funds for future development of its business. To this end, the Company considers efforts both to improve business results and to meet the expectations of its shareholders to be of the utmost importance. Dividend Policy The Company has never paid dividends on its Common Stock and has no intention of paying dividends for the foreseeable future. Management intends to use profits, if any, to expand its operations and to further develop operations as opposed to using such funds for dividend purposes. Dividend Policy The current dividend policy is to declare distributions in stock. Stock distributions will automatically be paid in newly issued shares of the Corporation unless otherwise instructed by the shareholder. The shares will be valued at the lower of the net asset value or market price on the payable date. Fractional shares will generally be settled in cash, except for registered shareholders with book entry accounts at the transfer agent who will have the whole and fractional shares added to their account. If a distribution was declared in cash, it would then be subject to the Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan, distributions declared in cash will automatically be paid in additional shares of the Fund, unless the Plan Agent is otherwise instructed. Shareholders may request to be paid in cash instead of shares by responding to the bank, brokerage, or nominee who holds the shares if the shares are in “street name” or by filling out a form received from _________________ Bank if the shares are in registered form. A description of the automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan may be obtained by calling ____________ Bank. - 2 - The Corporation distributes annually all income and capital gains if earned. It is expected that dividends, if any, will be declared after fiscal year-end and will be payable for that year before the end of January.
