The holders of Series 3 Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive fixed non-cumulative preferential cash dividends, as and when declared by the board of directors of MFC, which we refer to as the Board of Directors, for the initial period commencing on the Closing Date (as defined below) and ending on and including June 19, 2016, which we refer to as the Initial Fixed Rate Period, payable quarterly on the 19th day of March, June, September and December in each year (each three-month period ending on the 19th day of each such month, a Quarter), at an annual rate equal to $1.05 per share. The initial dividend, if declared, will be payable June 19, 2011 and will be $0.28767 per share, based on the anticipated closing date of March 11, 2011. See “Details of the Offering”.
