The rate of exchange used to determine the sterling amount equivalent is the average of the forward exchange rate in London over the five business days prior to the announcement date. Dividends are normally paid in March, June, September and December. Holders of ordinary shares receive their dividends in sterling; holders of American depositary shares (ADSs) receive their dividends in US dollars. One ADS represents six ordinary shares.
