Subject to approval by shareholders of resolution 4 at the Company's forthcoming annual general meeting (convened for 3.00 p.m. on 30 April 2013), the Board intends to offer a scrip dividend alternative for this distribution to those investors who wish to receive additional shares in the capital of GLIF in lieu of a cash payment. A circular will be sent to shareholders explaining the terms of the scrip dividend alternative. It is intended that the circular together with scrip dividend election forms (for those shareholders holding shares in certificated form) will be mailed on or around 3 May 2013 to all eligible GLIF shareholders on the register as at the record date for the dividend, being 26 April 2013. Elections for the scrip dividend alternative will need to be received by the Company's receiving agent, Equiniti Limited, by 24 May 2013 by those investors who wish to receive shares in lieu of cash.
The price at which the scrip dividend shares will be issued will be calculated in accordance with the terms of the circular by reference to the average of the middle market prices derived from the AIM Appendix to the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange on the ex-dividend date (being 24 April 2013) and the four subsequent dealing days.
Note: The times and dates in this announcement are expected times and dates only and are subject to change. Any such changes will be notified to shareholders through a regulatory information service.
