nr today Well if any dividend is to be paid it is likely based on shareholder of record at the end of today (most of us reading this). The reason i believe this to be true is that the prior news releases have stated that the dividend will be paid out to shareholders of record at the time of the deal closing (today). On the issue of the dividend being paid out I don't believe that it will be the full 10cents as promised however i bilieve that it will be scaled back to reflect the amount of money that was paid to longford. I think the issue will be clarified sometime tomorrow since trading will not resume until may 2nd according to the the release.
