FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
14 September 2023
Globalworth Real Estate Investments Limited
("Globalworth" or the "Company")
Scrip Dividend Share Reference Price
Further to the Company's announcement on 30 August 2023 and as further described in the scrip dividend circular published by the Company on 30 August 2023 (the "Scrip Dividend Circular"), the Company has approved the payment of an interim dividend in respect of the six month period ended 30 June 2023 of 14 cents per ordinary share (the "Interim Dividend") and shareholders may elect to receive a scrip dividend alternative to the Interim Dividend (the "Scrip Dividend Alternative") so that Qualifying Shareholders receive new ordinary shares in the Company (the "Scrip Dividend Shares") instead of cash in respect of all or part of their entitlement to the Interim Dividend calculated on the basis of the Reference Price.
The Reference Price is 200 cents per Scrip Dividend Share. The Reference Price has been determined by the Company on the basis of a discount of 20% to the average of the middle market quotations for the Company's shares as derived from the Daily Official List (or any other publication of a recognised investment exchange showing quotations for the Company's shares) on the five consecutive dealing days from and including the Ex-Dividend Date.
The final date and time for Qualifying Shareholders to elect to receive the Scrip Dividend Alternative is 5.00 p.m. on 22 September 2023. The process for electing to receive the Scrip Dividend Alternative is set out in the Scrip Dividend Circular, which is available on the Company's website at https://www.globalworth.com/investor-relations/corporate-documents/.
All capitalised terms used in this announcement shall, unless otherwise defined, have the meanings given to them in the Scrip Dividend Circular.
