This will result in total gross dividends paid for the year of Euro 0.7743 (net dividends - Euro 0.7581) per share.
The August gross dividend is increased to offset the element of Dutch withholding tax applicable and provide a full 6 per cent of closing net asset value per share of the Company at the end of the preceding year annual payment to shareholders.
Elections for scrip dividends must be received by the Company's Registrar, Computershare Investor Services PLC, by the record date in order to apply to this payment.
