Toronto, December 17, 2001: Mulvihill Premium 60Plus (the "Trust") has declared a year end distribution of C$0.50 per Unit payable December 31, 2001 to unitholders of record on such date. The amount of the distribution may be subject to minor adjustment.

The Trust would also like to announce that it has completed its tax planning to realize capital losses in the portfolio to reduce the taxable income of the Trust. As a result, it is expected that some or all of the distributions will be non-taxable in 2001. The amount of the non-taxable distribution will reduce Unitholders' adjusted cost base of their Units used to calculate capital gains realized by Unitholders on ultimate redemption or other disposition of their Units.

The Trust's investment objectives are to provide Unitholders with a stable stream of quarterly distributions of at least C$0.50 per Unit. The Trust intends to achieve its investment objectives by investing in a diversified portfolio consisting principally of common shares issued by corporations selected from the S&P/TSE 60 Index. The Trust may also, from time to time, invest up to 20% of the cost amount of its assets in (i) common shares issued by the top 60 corporations selected on the basis of market capitalization from the S&P 100 Index or (ii) American Depository Receipts ("ADR's") of the top 60 corporations selected on the basis of market capitalization whose ADR's are trading on the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ.

To generate additional returns above the dividend income earned on the portfolio, the Trust 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 Trust may write cash covered put options in respect of securities in which the Trust is permitted to invest.
