On-going capital
management:
• a dividend reinvestment plan
which allows investors to cost effectively put their dividends back
into
the Company.
• activation of the
share buy back program which gives the Company the flexibility
to buy back shares
at appropriate times, particularly if the shares
start trading at a discount to their net asset backing

a separate legal entity pays tax just like any other company. However
the tax is small because companies receiving fully franked dividends
do not need to pay any additional tax on the franked dividend. These
fully franked dividends are passed straight through to shareholders
in March and August of each year.
Yearly
and half yearly profit announcements, regular shareholder briefings
and access to all company announcements, including net asset backing
announcements that are intended to keep shareholders informed about
the Company’s activities and performance.
