6. EQUITY

a) Trust Capital
The initial Trust capital was set at $90 million in 1997. The Trust capital has been increased over time as a surrogate for inflation and population growth within the region administered by the Trust. The Trustees periodically review the capital maintenance transfer. Due to the result of the previous year funds of $3.6 million were not available to be transferred into the capital reserve. In addition there was a $2.942 million shortfall of reserves over capital. This year the Trustees had determined to increase the capital by a further $3.6 million plus the 2009 shortfall (in total $10.142 million) to ensure the "real" capital of the Trust is maintained.

2010 $ 2009 $
Balance at the beginning of the year 115,792,322 118,834,668
Transfer from/(to) donations reserve 10,142,347 (2,942,346)

Balance at the end of the year | 125,934,669 | 115,792,322 |

b) Donations Reserve
The Trustees retain all undistributed income in the donation reserve. The optimum level of the donation reserve is 25% of the capital base so that the annual donation distribution is able to be maintained when investment markets provide negative results.

2010 $ 2009 $
Balance at the beginning of the year - 15,056,150
Transfer (to)/from capital reserve (10,142,347) 2,942,346
Gain/(Deficit) for the year 24,004,274 (17,998,496)

Balance at the end of the year | 13,861,927 | - |
