JSE
Dividend Payment Date Thursday, 19 August 2021
The above dates and times are subject to change. Any changes will be released on RNS and SENS.
To facilitate settlement of the Dividend to entitled SA Shareholders, share certificates may not be
dematerialised or rematerialised between Wednesday, 7 July 2021 (the SA Ex-Dividend Date) and Friday,
9 July 2021 (the Record Date). No transfers of Shares shall be registered in the SA Share Register, or
between the SA Share Register and the UK Share Register, between Monday, 14 June 2021 (the Reference
Price date) and Friday, 9 July 2021. All dates are inclusive.
The Dividend has been declared in Euro. Shareholders on the UK Share Register may choose to receive
their entitlement to the Dividend in cash in either Euro or Sterling. Shareholders on the UK Share Register
who do not make a valid Sterling currency election will receive any entitlement to the cash dividend in
Euro. Shareholders on the SA Share Register will receive any entitlement to the cash dividend in ZAR.
The Scrip Dividend Reference Prices are as follows:
Shareholders on the UK Share Register: £1.00432 (Sterling)
Shareholders on the SA Share Register: 1,901.64148 (ZAR cents)
Therefore, the number of New Shares which Shareholders electing to take the Scrip Dividend Alternative
will receive are (subject to the treatment of any fractions) as follows:
Shareholders on the UK Share Register: 1 New Share for every 59.49763 Ordinary Shares held
Shareholders on the SA Share Register: 1 New Share for every 57.74735 Ordinary Shares held
Fractions
Where an entitlement to New Shares in relation to the Scrip Dividend Alternative as calculated in
accordance with the formulae described above gives rise to a fraction of a New Share, such fractional
entitlement shall be treated as follows:
Shareholders on the UK Share Register:
No fraction of a New Share will be issued to Shareholders on the UK Share Register, and the relevant
amount of Dividend will be retained for the benefit of the Company.
Shareholders on the SA Share Register:
Trading in the Strate environment does not permit fractions and fractional entitlements. Any fractional
entitlement will be rounded down to the nearest whole number, resulting in allocations of whole
securities and a cash payment in ZAR for the fractional amount.
The Euro to Sterling Conversion Rate (UK Share Register only)
For Shareholders on the UK Share Register who make a valid Sterling currency election, the conversion
rate for the purposes of calculating the Dividend for the six months ended 31 March 2021 will be a Euro
to Sterling Rate of £0.85250.
On this basis, Shareholders on the UK Share Register who have elected to receive their entitlement to the
Dividend in cash in Sterling will receive a gross dividend of £0.01688 (Sterling) per Ordinary Share.
Alternatively, Shareholders on the UK Share Register may elect to receive New Shares by way of the Scrip
Dividend Alternative.
The Euro to ZAR Conversion Rate (SA Share Register only)
For Shareholders on the SA Share Register, the conversion rate for the purposes of calculating the
Dividend authorised in connection with the period ended 31 March 2021 will be 16.63150 ZAR to 1 Euro.
The Euro to ZAR conversion for payment of the dividend in ZAR will be settled on Thursday, 12 August
2021, using the Euro to ZAR Conversion Rate which has been fixed by the Company as at the date of this
announcement and the Circular.
On this basis, Shareholders on the SA Share Register will receive a gross dividend of 32.93037 (ZAR cents)
per Ordinary Share, which they may take in cash or in New Shares by electing to do so by way of the Scrip
Dividend Alternative.
Information for Shareholders on the SA Share Register
Tax
In accordance with the Listings Requirements of the JSE, the Company confirms that the net cash dividend
received by SA Shareholders who are not exempt from dividend withholding tax of 20%, is expected to be
26.34430 (ZAR cents) per Ordinary Share.
South African Shareholders who elect to receive the Dividend in scrip form should not be subject to
income tax or dividend withholding tax on receipt of the New Shares, and the Scrip Dividend will not be
regarded as a foreign dividend.
