This press release contains forward-looking information. The forward-looking information contained in this press release is based on historical information concerning distributions and dividends paid on the securities of issuers historically included in the portfolio of MBN. Actual future results, including the amount of distributions paid by MBN, may differ from the quarterly distribution amount. Specifically, the income from which distributions are paid may vary significantly due to: changes in portfolio composition; changes in distributions and dividends paid by issuers of securities included in MBN’s portfolio from time to time; there being no assurance that those issuers will pay distributions or dividends on their securities; the declaration of distributions and dividends by issuers of securities included in the portfolio will generally depend upon various factors, including the financial condition of each issuer and general economic and stock market conditions; the level of borrowing by MBN; and the uncertainty of realizing capital gains. An investment fund must prepare disclosure documents that contain key information about MBN. You can find more detailed information about a fund in the public filings available at www.sedar.com.
