FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT IN RESPECT OF THE SECOND INTERIM DIVIDEND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2015

 

Redefine International shareholders are referred to the announcement released on 30 October 2015 wherein shareholders were advised that the board of directors ("the board") of the Company had declared a second interim dividend of 1.65 pence per share (the "dividend") in respect of the year ended 31 August 2015 and that the board intended to offer to shareholders the election to receive either a cash dividend ("cash dividend") or a scrip dividend by way of an issue of new Redefine International shares (of the same class as existing shares) credited as fully paid up ("scrip dividend").

 

The total dividend to be paid, whether as a cash dividend or scrip dividend, will be paid as follows:

 

- 0.330 pence (20%) will comprise a property income distribution ("PID"). The PID will be subject to a deduction of a 20% UK withholding tax unless exemptions apply.

- 1.320 pence (80%) will comprise a non-PID. As a non-PID, this will be treated as an ordinary UK company dividend, with no withholding tax deducted.

 

The Company is now pleased to announce the scrip dividend reference price applicable to the scrip dividend and, for shareholders on the SA share register, the exchange rate applicable to the cash dividend. The salient dates for payment of the dividend published in the announcement dated 30 October 2015 remain unchanged.

 

Further details on the scrip dividend are contained in the circular which was posted on 30 October 2015 (the "circular"), and the related election form, copies of which are available at www.redefineinternational.com. Terms defined in the circular shall bear the same meaning in this announcement.

 

(i) Shareholders receiving the cash dividend

 

The Company confirms that the South African Rand exchange rate for the dividend will be 21.32550 ZAR to 1 GBP. Shareholders who do not make an election to receive shares will receive a cash dividend per share which will be paid as follows:

 

Shareholders on the

UK share register

Shareholders on the

SA share register

Non-PID element

1.320 pence

28.14966 ZAR cents

Plus/or

PID element (gross)

0.330 pence

7.03742 ZAR cents

*Less 20% withholding tax

0.066 pence

1.40748 ZAR cents

PID element (net)

0.264 pence

5.62994 ZAR cents

 

* Certain categories of UK shareholders may apply for exemption, in which case the PID element will be paid gross.

 

(ii) Shareholders who elect to receive shares

 

(a) Dividend equivalent values:

 

Shareholders who make an election to receive the scrip dividend instead of the cash dividend will receive shares with a value equivalent to a dividend per share as follows:

 

Shareholders on the

UK share register

Shareholders on the

SA share register

Non-PID element

1.352 pence

28.83208 ZAR cents

Plus/or

PID element (gross)

0.338 pence

7.20802 ZAR cents

*Less 20% withholding tax

0.068 pence

1.44160 ZAR cents

PID element (net)

0.270 pence

5.76642 ZAR cents

 

* Certain categories of UK shareholders may apply for exemption, in which case the PID element will be paid gross.

 

(b) Share entitlement: Shareholders on the UK share register:

 

For Redefine International shares traded on the LSE, the scrip dividend reference price is calculated as a 2.5% discount on the average of the middle market quotations of a Redefine International share derived from the daily Official List for the last five dealing days prior to 5 November 2015, less the amount of the dividend per Redefine International share. Accordingly the scrip dividend reference price applicable to shareholders on the UK share register is 52.365 pence. The scrip dividend share allocation will be as follows:

 

Non-PID element

PID element (Gross)

PID element (Net)

No. of shares required to be held for one new Redefine International share

38.73151

154.92604

193.94444

 

The number of shares to be allocated will be calculated by dividing the total value of the dividend otherwise receivable by the shareholder by the scrip dividend reference price. Any fractional entitlement which:

 

- is less than one half of a new Redefine International share, will be rounded down to the nearest whole number;

 

- is equal to or greater than one half of a new Redefine International share but less than a whole new Redefine International share, will be rounded up to the nearest whole number; and

 

- no fractions of scrip dividend shares will be issued, nor will any residual entitlements be carried forward to any future scrip dividend issue, and any amount of dividend not represented by scrip dividend shares will not be paid or payable to the relevant shareholders in respect of that dividend, but will be retained by the Company.

 

(c) Share entitlement: Shareholders on the South Africa share register:

 

For Redefine International shares traded on the JSE, the scrip dividend reference price will be calculated as a 2.5% discount on the average of the middle market quotations of a Redefine International share as provided by the JSE for the last five dealing days on the JSE prior to 5 November 2015, less the amount of the dividend per Redefine International share as converted into Rand at the exchange rate of 21.32550 ZAR to 1 GBP. Accordingly the scrip dividend reference price applicable to shareholders on the SA share register is 1,115.11793 ZAR cents. The scrip dividend share allocation will be as follows:

 

Non-PID element

PID element (Gross)

PID element (Net)

No. of shares required to be held for one new Redefine International share

38.67629

154.70517

193.38132

 

The number of shares to be allocated will be calculated by dividing the total value of the dividend otherwise receivable by the shareholder by the scrip dividend reference price. Any fractional entitlement which:

 

- is less than one half of a new Redefine International share, will be rounded down to the nearest whole number;

 

- is equal to or greater than one half of a new Redefine International share but less than a whole new Redefine International share, will be rounded up to the nearest whole number; and

 

- no fractions of scrip dividend shares will be issued, nor will any residual entitlements be carried forward to any future scrip dividend issue, and any amount of dividend not represented by scrip dividend shares will not be paid or payable to the relevant shareholders in respect of that dividend, but will be retained by the Company.

 

By way of illustration of the above, the scrip dividend share calculation will be as follows for a shareholder who holds 100 shares:

 

Shareholders on the

UK share register

Shareholders on the

SA share register

Amount of non-PID dividend entitled to receive (per (a) above x 100):

135.2 pence

R28.83208

No. of shares entitled to receive:

Calculation:

135.2 pence/52.365 pence

R28.83208/R11.15118

No. of new shares:

3

Amount of PID dividend entitled to receive (per (a) above x 100):

27.0 pence

R5.76642

No. of shares entitled to receive:

Calculation:

R5.76642/R11.15118

No. of new shares:

(iii) Notes for shareholders on the SA share register

 

On application by shareholders on the SA share register, 5% of the 20% UK withholding tax deducted in respect of the PID element of the cash dividend is claimable from the UK's HM Revenue & Customs ("HMRC"), resulting in an effective UK withholding tax rate of 15%. The Company will account to HMRC in Pounds Sterling for the total UK withholding tax deducted. Settlement of any claims for refund will be calculated and settled in Pounds Sterling by HMRC.

 

The information given in section (i) and (ii) above, as applicable, will assist with applications for refunds. For information on PIDs and refund claims, including claim forms and guidance on how to complete them, visit http://www.redefineinternational.com/investor-relations/real-estate-investment-trust/.

 

The number of shares in issue as at the declaration date was 1,474,331,331 ordinary shares of 8 pence each.
