caribill Posted November 16, 2012 #4 Share Posted November 16, 2012 So we will get .75 cents per share? Not sure I am reading your post right? Correct (actually 75 cents, not .75 cents). 25 cents to be paid 12/14 and 50 cents to be paid 12/28. Here is the announcement http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=140690&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1759769&highlight= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailingpeace Posted November 17, 2012 #18 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Thank you for the good news! Will we recieve this as a check or is it added to your shares account? I am soooo not familiar with this, but thanks to you and a few other CC membres, I do own shares and enjoyed my first OBC last winter :):). I took my FCC 101 class on CC and my CCLshares 101 , so now I have OBC cause I know the ABC of it all, well almost. Also, were we supposed to get something last December, I know I didn't ? Thank you, perfect timing , made final payment today on next cruise:). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caribill Posted November 17, 2012 #20 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Thank you for the good news! Will we recieve this as a check or is it added to your shares account? Whatever you have been doing with the regular dividend will occur with the special dividend. If you have been re-investing the regular dividend, then the special dividend will get re-invested. If you have been getting a check for the regular dividend, you will get a check for the special dividend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most common choices would be either dividend reinvestment (buy more shares), cash to your account or a check Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
