RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH DEBENTURES
(a) Interest Rate Risk The price of a typical Debenture will change in the opposite direction to a change in the market interest rates assuming all other factors are equal. “Market Interest Rate” refers to interest rate expected by the investors for investments with similar maturity and risk profile. As market interest rates rise, price of the Debentures may fall and as market interest rates fall, the price of the debenture may rise. If an investor sells a Debenture prior to maturity when market interest rate is higher than on these Debenture interest rates, the investor may incur a capital loss. Similarly, if an investor sells a Debenture prior to maturity when market interest rate is lower than on the debenture interest rate, then the investor may receive a capital gain. This uncertainty is known as “interest rate risk”.
(b) Reinvestment Risk The Company shall pay interest on the Debentures annually. The investor may decide to reinvest this interest payment and earn interest on interest. Depending on the prevailing market interest rates, the Debenture Holder may be able to reinvest the paid interest at a higher or lower interest rate than that is offered by these Debentures. This uncertainty is known as “reinvestment risk”.
(c) Default Risk Default risk also known as credit risk refers to the risk that the Issuer of a Debenture may default, i.e. the Issuer will be unable to pay interest and principal when due. It is advisable for prospective EAP Broadcasting Company Limited Debenture investors to take into account past earnings and asset growth performance of the Company, present financial strengths as reflected in the Balance Sheet of the Company, its risk management policies and the experience of the Directors and Senior Management when forming an opinion on Default Risk. The rights of Debenture Holders in the event of a default are more fully explained in the Trust Deed
(d) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk depends on the ease with which Debentures can be sold after the initial placement. As the Debentures will be listed on the CSE, investors will be able to trade the instrument in the secondary market and convert to cash mitigating liquidity risk. However transaction price or bid-ask spread will be dependent upon the marketability, demand, supply and other macro factors such as market interest rates.
(e) Duration Risk Duration is a measure of the price sensitivity of fixed income investments to a change in interest rates based on the time to maturity of principal and coupon payments. The higher the duration, the greater the price volatility or duration risk, while a lower duration risk carries a lower risk.
1.13
BENEFITS OF INVESTING IN THE DEBENTURES
Subscribers to the Debentures will be exposed to the following risks: (It is vital to note however that these risks are not unique to debentures issued by EAP Broadcasting Company Limited and apply generally to any unsecure fixed income security, fixed deposit or any other term or money deposit)

are equipped with a wide scope of knowledge and talent and have been through specialized training both locally and overseas.
In the recent past, Swarnavahini has showcased their prowess by winning many awards which includes the SLIM Neilson People's Awards, Sumathi Awards, Raigam Tele Awards and many other awards and are presently maintaining a strong Number 03 position according to the renowned LMRB Data Records.

ETV: Entertainment TV! Background ETV was acquired by EAP in 1996 and consisted of two Channels namely ETV1 & ETV2. ETV1 was the re-broadcasting BBC while ETV2 was re-broadcasting Star TV. However due to popular demand ETV2 was re-launched as Swarnavahini, a mass market Sinhala Channel in 1997. Subsequently ETV1 was re-launched in May 1998 as ETV - Entertainment TV. Since then ETV earned an undisputed leadership in the local English language TV industry. This was evident by the large number of advertisers who have chosen ETV as their preferred English language channel.
The future of ETV - A Celebration of Cosmopolitan Life of Sri Lanka
The future strategy of ETV would involve introducing more and more local programming content that is a celebration of "Cosmopolitan Life in Sri Lanka!" The content would be even closer to the audience and something they can easily relate to.
The content will also showcase our current audience and their lifestyles. ETV's current and upcoming programs are about people they know, places they know and issues that matter. The programs, where possible, will feature the audience themselves too.
ETV's aim is to sustain its position as the most preferred choice of TV entertainment of the target group and ultimately be one with the day to day life of Sri Lankans through its programming, events and media sponsorships and interaction.
