HICL Infrastructure Company Limited (the 'Company')
Second Interim Dividend
HICL Infrastructure Company Limited is pleased to announce a second interim dividend of 3.575 pence per ordinary share for the financial year ending 31 March 2013 which will be paid on 22 April 2013 to shareholders on the register as at the close of business on 1 March 2013.
As outlined in the Company's announcement of 31 January 2103 regarding the Company's intention to proceed with a Placing, Open Offer and Offer for Subscription of new Ordinary Shares during the coming weeks, the Board has declared the second interim dividend for the year to 31 March 2013 earlier than usual in order to uphold the integrity of the cash cover on the Company's dividend. As the record and ex-dividend dates will fall prior to the issue of the new Ordinary Shares, subscribers for the new Ordinary Shares will not be entitled to the second interim dividend.
As in previous years, the Company will also be offering shareholders a scrip dividend alternative to this interim dividend. A circular and election forms will be sent to shareholders on or around 8 March 2013, and if shareholders wish to receive all or part of this interim dividend by way of new shares in the Company, election forms need to be filed by 25 March 2013. If no action is taken, the interim dividend will be paid as cash, unless a previous standing election was completed.
