Underthe proposed Scheme, ALF will undertake an equal capital reduction andshareholders will receive a fully franked cash dividend of not less than 3cents and have their ASX listed ALF shares exchanged for a new class of unitsin Watermark Absolute Return Fund on a one-for-one basis.

Shareholderssubscribed to a LIC in the IPO.

Shareholders bought shares in the LIC in the secondary market.

Therefore, shareholders invested in a listed company and expect to be able to trade in the ASX. Shareholders who did not wish to obtain units in the WARF should be able to receive the return of capital. The scheme should therefore include a choice for shareholders to take cash or units in the WARF.

We will only have a modestexposure to equities here so late in the cycle with our principal objectivebeing the preservation of capital as the bubble in asset values will inevitablyburst, probably sometime next year.

Instead of keeping the cash in WARF we are better off to receive the return of capital in cash.
