Marble Point Loan Financing Limited
Dividend Declaration
Q4 2019 Dividend
The Board of Directors of Marble Point Loan Financing Limited (the "Company") has declared a dividend in respect of the quarter ending 31 December 2019 of $0.025 per ordinary share, which represents an increase of 25 per cent compared to the prior dividend paid on 30 October 2019.
"As described in the Company's November 2019 Monthly Report, quarterly cash distributions per share from the Company's investments in CLO Equity, CLO Debt and other related investments have increased approximately 70 per cent since Q2 2018 and approximately 40 per cent since Q1 2019. Furthermore, the first distribution from our recent investment in Marble Point CLO XVI Ltd. is anticipated to be received during Q1 2020. As such, the Board of Directors of the Company are pleased to announce an increase in the dividend payable to our shareholders of 25 per cent versus the prior quarter. We have increased the annual dividend from $0.08 to $0.10 per share on the timeframe estimated in our 2018 prospectus for our initial public offering, which we believe demonstrates the current cash flow generation capability of our investment portfolio despite the recent volatility in underlying loan prices," said Robert Brown, Chairman of the Company.
The dividend will be payable to the Company's shareholders of record as detailed below:

The Company declares its cash dividends in U.S. Dollars. Shareholders will, by default, receive their cash dividends in U.S. Dollars.

No action is required of shareholders who have previously made a dividend currency election or who wish to receive their dividend in U.S. Dollars.
