DISTRIBUTION ANNOUNCEMENT
Holders of STANLIBSX securities ("Securities Holders") are referred to the
announcement dated Thursday, 19 July 2012 setting out details of a possible
quarterly distribution by the ETF to Securities Holders.
Further to the above mentioned announcement, the manager of the STANLIB ETF
Collective Investment Scheme (the Manager) has resolved to make a quarterly
distribution to Securities Holders for the quarter ended 30 June 2012 ("the
Distribution") in an amount of 6.02000 cents per STANLIBSX ETF security. The
distribution will be constituted as follows:
Dividend(local non taxable-pre DWT) : 0.6 cents
Gross Dividend(local) to be taxed : 3.65 cents
Dividend (local STC credits) : 0.03 cents
Net taxable : 3.62 cents
Dividend Withholding Tax : 0.54300 cents (15%)
Net dividend : 3.10700 cents
Gross Dividend(foreign-dual listed shares): 0.22 cents
Dividend Withholding Tax : 0.03300 cents (15%)
Dividend (foreign-withholding tax) : (0.01) cents (4.454%)
Net Dividend : 0.187000 cents
Other : 1.53 cents[manufactured
dividend/interest]
The Security Holders who are not exempt from dividend tax will receive the Net
Dividend.
Securities Holders should be aware that this distribution includes the special
dividend paid by Old Mutual Limited (OML) on 7 June, 2012. Special dividends
are capital events from an indexation perspective and are usually reinvested
in the portfolio, however this particular special dividend is subject to
Dividend Withholding Tax (DWT), and consequently is required to be dealt
with differently.
Accordingly, the Manager has resolved, rather than reinvesting the special
dividend into the portfolio, to distribute it to investors to enable the
necessary deduction of DWT for payment to SARS.
This will result in the value of each security representing 1/1002th of the
index rather than 1/1000th.
The Manager is in the process of obtaining the necessary approval to
consolidate the securities, in order to reduce the number of securities in
issue and thereby increase the value of each security. This will ensure that
each security again represents 1/1000th of the FTSE/ JSE SWIX40 index.
The value of the OML special dividend is 1.53 cents per ETF security.
The Distribution will be made to all Securities Holders recorded in the
register on Friday, 29 June 2012 and will be paid on Friday, 03 August 2012.
