*The dividend target stated in this announcement is a target only and not a
profit forecast. There can be no assurance that this target will be met, or
that the Company will make any distributions at all and it should not be taken
as an indication of the Company's expected future results. The Company's
actual returns will depend upon a number of factors, including but not limited
to the Company's net income and level of ongoing charges. Accordingly,
potential investors should not place any reliance on this target and should
decide for themselves whether or not the target dividend is reasonable or
achievable. Investors should note that references in this announcement to
"dividends" and "distributions" are intended to cover both dividend income and
income which is designated as an interest distribution for UK tax purposes and
therefore subject to the interest streaming regime applicable to investment
trusts.
