TORONTO, Sept. 15 /CNW/ - PDM Royalties Income Fund (the "Fund")
(TSX: PDM.UN) announced today a cash distribution of $0.11 per unit for the
month of August, 2005, this reflects an annual distribution of $1.32 per unit.
The distribution will be paid to unitholders of record at the close of
business on September 21, 2005 and will be payable on or before September 30,
2005.
For those unitholders holding units outside a tax deferred plan, the Fund
estimates that the 2005 distributions will be treated approximately as 78%
taxable income and 2% as a return of capital. The proportion of these figures
may change when the actual results for the fiscal year are calculated.
Royalties paid to the Fund will be adjusted annually to include the franchise
revenues of the new Pizza Delight and Mikes Restaurants opened prior to
October 2 of each year.
The Fund is a limited purpose open-ended trust established under the laws
of Ontario. The Fund will make monthly distributions of its available cash to
holders of units. The Fund indirectly owns the trade marks and intellectual
property for the Pizza Delight and Mikes Restaurants brands and has licensed
them to Pizza Delight in consideration for a royalty equal to 4% percent of
system sales.
