legal entity pays tax just like any other company. However
the tax is small because companies receiving fully franked

approach to keeping shareholders informed about the Company’s
activities and performance, including yearly and half yearly
profit announcements, regular shareholder briefings and access
to all company announcements, including Net Asset Backing
announcements.
