We are dependent on the earnings of, and cash receipts from, the businesses that we own in order to meet our corporate overhead and management fee expenses and to pay distributions. The earnings and cash receipts from our businesses are generally lowest in the first quarter, and strongest in the third and fourth quarter, of each fiscal year. These earnings and cash receipts, net of any non-controlling interest in these businesses, are available to:

• meet capital expenditure requirements, management fees and corporate overhead charges;

• support working capital needs of our businesses and corporate overhead; and

• be distributed by the Trust to shareholders.
