Payment of dividends directly
Many UK shareholders have already arranged for dividends to be paid by mandate directly into their bank or building society account. The Company pays dividends through the BACS (Bankers' Automated Clearing Services) system. The benefit to shareholders of the BACS payment method is that the Registrar posts the tax vouchers directly to them, whilst the dividend is credited on the payment date to the shareholder's bank or building society account. Shareholders wishing to benefit from this service should contact the registrar, Computershare Investor Services Plc, via the contact details above. The benefit to the Company is improved efficiency through lower postage charges.
Scrip Dividend Scheme
The Company scrip dividend scheme enables shareholders to use their cash dividends to purchase St. James's Place plc shares. The strike price for the scrip dividend scheme is 231.60 pence per share offered to those shareholders who were on the register on 8 August 2008 and who elected to receive a scrip dividend on their holding by 1 September 2008. For further details, please contact the registrars.
