SOLICITORS: Messrs Whitakkr & Etjsselt... BANKERS: Bank ot New Zealand, In consequence of tho extension of the business of this Company, Vid the numerous and urgent applica tions which have been made, both by the Public ar-d the Proprieta y, to increase the Capital, and t > widen its operations by the issue of new shares, and thereby increase thenumberof Shareholders, an iixtraorainary Meeting of Shareholders was held on the 9ih instant, ■when the CompaEV r. solved to increase the Capital to One Million Pounds, by tbe creation of 100,C00 shares of LlO each. ' f these Shares it has been determined to offer 50,000 to the Public, tha remaining 5.i.0C0 Shares to be allotted to the present Shareholders in exchange for t eir interest in the Company. Ttse present Proprietors thus offer one-half of the Com pany's intaiest for sale. • The Shares now offered to the Public are of LlO each, of -which L 2 is to bs paid up. They will be sold at L4los each, or Fifty Shilling* premium, paj able as follows:— L 0 10 0 per share on application 1.1 0 0 ~ on allotment. LI 0 0 „ on the 3lst May, 185.

"Tiber next will be credited with interest at SOth XsO>v , , ier cetit per Minum from the date of the rate of te*. ■ ale , and from that date they tviil allotment to tha*.- t e , ar.d participate in al the carry full dividend iv. •„,-, in proport'on to the future advantages accru^. Shareholder may pre samount of capital paid. Any his pre-payments, pay his instalments and thereupon .. full fli v i len( j after 30th November next will Ch.rt, rate from the date of payment. In case of default being made in payment of a-.' instalment, the Directors to havefull power to foifcit any Shares in respsct of which such default is made, and to sell or otherwise dispose ot them as they think fit. To ensure a general distribution, the '».<W aow'cffe-od will be divided as foUowar-Auck ami 15,000, Dunedin 10,000, Chrtotchurch 7 TOO, Welling ton 6 000, NeUon 2.CCO. Tarauaki 1,000, »api«r2,ojo, Westland 1,000, Wanganui 1,000, reserved fo, tbe Australian Colonies 5,000, and the Directors rese«e the right not to allot to any of the places named any greater number than that allowed to each place. The applications for Shares will be considered and allotted in order of date of application, the first ap plicants, if eligible as Propiietors, .will be fliat con iidered. lie Directors do not bind themselves to allot any Shares to any person they may consider nos eligible as a Shareholder, and they may return the application money to such applicant, lhe preseut Proprietors will thus receive 60,000 Shares of L 2 each, represented by the present paid-up Capital of the Company ; the present Be-Insurance Fund of L40,0>;0 will belong to the New Account, to begin from 30tn November next, in which ths nsw Shareholders will participate in proportion to the Capital paid up. me new Shareholders' payments of £2 per Share of Capital will make the Paid-up Capital L 200.000 : tbe Com pany will then stand with a Subscribed capital ol 1.1,000 000, with L200.C00 paid up, and a Re-Insurance .fund of L 40.000. The Premium on the new Shares, and all the funds and property of the Company as it now exists, over and above the present Paid-up Capi tal of LIOO,OOO, and the L 40.000 Re-Insurance Fund, ■wiU belong to and be divisible among the old Share holders. , . The steady progress which this Companf has made is well known. The original amount paid by the ftrai Shareholders was 1.4,845, an additional issue of new Shares was made in 1862, and L 3.372 was then capital ised, making in all L 5,227. The Capital no w stand; at LIOO,OOO, it having grown to this amount from time to time out of profits. In addition to this, and out of profits also, a Re-Insurance Fund of L 40,00 0; aud a Reserve Fund of L 35.000, have been added tc the Company's assets. And during the whole perioc of the Company's existence the Shareholders have received dividends at the rate of 10 per cent, pei annum, and the amount paid in dividends has beer Losses 'amounting to nearly half-a-miHion havi occurred since the commencement of business, an< liave invariably been promptly met. ■< The amount of accumulated funds belonging to thi Company, and invested, now stands at L 214,000. Th> Investments consist o! Real Property, Mortgages Bank, Lo»n Company, Gas, and other Shares, Cit; Debentures, &c. The Interest accruing from these investments woul< pay on the proposed increased Capital of L 200.000 ■ rate of interest to the Shareholders equal to 7J pc cent. ; that is to say if all the premiums were lost th Company would be able to declare a dividend of 7 per cent, from the present invested accumulations whereas the invested funds, when the p*esent plan i carried out, will begin with L 240.000. The progress of the Company is shewn in the sut joined tabular statement: - Amount of Amount oi Year.* Premiums Amount of Dividends received. Losses Paid.

But reference to the last Half-yearly Report of th Directors shews in a still more striking manner Ih present rapid growth of the Company. From thi ILaport it will be seen that the Premiums for the Hall year endng 31st May, 1874, were 163,216, being an ir crease of L 18.790 upon tbe preceding Half-year, and a increase of L 11.495 upon the corresponding Half-yea of 1873; and as the Directors have since taken fin ther steps for increasing the Company's business an extending the sphere of its operations they see n reason why the future of this Company should not t as successful as the past, the more so as it is hoped a extended list of Shareholders will materially tend t increase the Company's business and promote ii general interests. •Copies of the Articles of Association and of the Ri solutions passed at the last Meeting can be seen i the Head Office and at the Offices ©f the Agents of th Company!.
