A DRIP is offered to shareholders on the UK share register. It is not offered to shareholders on the Hong Kong register ("Hong Kong Shareholders"), holders of American Depository Receipts or shareholders holding their interests through The Central Depository (Pte) Limited ("CDP Shareholders").

Under the DRIP, shares are purchased in the market using the cash dividends that would otherwise have been paid to shareholders. The purchased shares are then distributed to each electing shareholder in proportion to the amount of their cash dividend receivable. The price paid for the shares will only be known after all the shares have been purchased. The share purchase price is shown below.

For further information please refer to the DRIP circular which may be found on the shareholder forms page.
