Based on the current dividend yields on the underlying banks, the Preferred Share dividend coverage ratio is approximately 2.2 times. Holders of the Capital Shares are expected to receive all excess dividend income after the Preferred Share distributions and other expenses of the Company have been paid.<\/p>\n<p> Since the rating was upgraded in April 2013, the Company\u2019s performance has been positive, with net asset values increasing steadily. Downside protection available to holders of the Preferred Shares was 68.6% as of April 3, 2014.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It was a mixed day for the Canadian preferred share market, with PerpetualDiscounts gaining 3bp, while FixedResets and DeemedRetractibles were both off 5bp. Volatility was minimal. Volume was low, but the highlights are comprised entirely of FixedResets.<\/p>\n<table border='1'>\n<tr>\n<td colspan='8'><strong>HIMIPref&trade; Preferred Indices<br \/>These values reflect the
