Toronto, March 3, 2003: Mulvihill Premium Global Telecom (the “Fund”) has declared its quarterly dividend of $0.20625 on each of its Preferred Shares payable March 31, 2003 to shareholders of record as of March 17, 2003.

In respect of the Class A shares, the Fund’s Telecom Universe has experienced a sharp decline resulting in a reduction in the Fund’s net asset value per Unit. As a result, the dividends on the Class A shares continue to be suspended until such time as the value of the underlying portfolio and coverage on the Preferred Shares improves.

The Fund is a mutual fund corporation, which invests its net assets in a diversified portfolio consisting principally of common shares issued by corporations within the Fund’s Global Telecom Universe. To generate additional returns above the dividend income earned on the portfolio, the Fund will from time to time write covered call options in respect of all or part of the common shares in the Portfolio. In addition, the Fund may write cash covered put options in respect of securities in which the Fund is permitted to invest.

The Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by its investment manager, Mulvihill Capital Management Inc. The Fund’s Preferred and Class A shares are listed on The Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbols GT.PR.A and GT.A.
