Question

Answer

2A.1

*Type of dividend/distribution

Each form can only relate to one +record date and payment date but may have multiple types of payment for example an ordinary and special dividend. Please note that dividends/distributions for units, ETFs and preference +securities are classified as "Ordinary".

X Ordinary (must be cash) Please complete Part 3A. Special (must be cash) Please complete Part 3B. Scrip (must be scrip) Please complete Part 3C.

2A.2

*The dividend/distribution:

Tick one only to indicate length of period to which the dividend/distribution applies. ASX's system classifies interim/final dividends/distributions as six monthly if both are paid. If a final only is paid it is classified as relating to a period of twelve months.

Where a scrip or special dividend/distribution is paid at the same time as an ordinary dividend/distribution it has the same period classification as the ordinary.

If the dividend/distribution is special and/or scrip only then "does not relate to a specific period within the financial year in which it was paid" may be applicable.

relates to a period of one month. relates to a period of one quarter.

X relates to a period of six months. relates to a period of twelve months.

does not relate to a specific period within the financial year in which it was paid.

2A.3

*The dividend/distribution relates to the financial reporting or payment period ended/ending (date)

The period ended date must match the end date of the reporting period of any Appendix 4D, 4E or 4F lodged by the entity at the same time as this form and which includes the details of the dividend/distribution announced in this form. For preference +securities or units of trusts or ETFs the period ended/ending date may correspond to the payment date and may be a future date. If a special or scrip dividend/distribution is notified at the same time as another dividend/distribution which relates to a period of one month, one quarter, six months or twelve months then the special or scrip dividend/distribution will be characterised with the same period type and will have the same period ended as that dividend/distribution. If the dividend/distribution is special and/or scrip only and "does not relate to a specific period within the financial year in which it was paid" has been ticked in Q2A.2, then a period ended date may not be applicable.
