The Share Dividend Plan ("SDP") is now available to most shareholders, enabling shareholders to receive dividends in the form of common shares at a 5% discount to the average market price. While similar to our Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP"), the SDP has certain tax attributes which may be more attractive to some shareholders.
