(Freehold) (TSX:FRU) announces that its Board of Directors has approved an adjustment to its monthly dividend to $0.07 per share from $0.09 per share. The Board of Directors has declared a dividend of Cdn. $0.07 per common share to be paid on October 15, 2015, to shareholders of record on September 30, 2015.
