On 26 August 2014, the Company proposed a fully franked final dividend of $10.98 million representing 2 cents per share (Final Dividend).

Ex-dividend date 2 September 2014
Record date for determining entitlements to the dividends 4 September 2014
Payment date for dividends 17 September 2014

A final dividend for FY13 of $8.2m (1.8 cents per share) was paid during the financial year via a fully underwritten Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP).

ClearView has no debt and $25.5m surplus capital above the internal benchmarks at 30 June 2014. Internal benchmarks include capital held for the protection of ClearView’s regulatory capital position in respect of risk outcomes where the regulatory capital cannot be easily accessed and to protect the various entities’ regulatory licences.

Details of dividend reinvestment plan in operation and the last date for the receipt of an election notice for participation in any dividend reinvestment plan.

ClearView’s DRP will continue to operate for the FY14 dividend payment. Shares under the DRP will be issued at a fixed price of $0.80 per share, consistent with ClearView’s DRP Rules, and in line with the 90 day volume weighted average price of $0.80. The DRP is a cost-effective way for ClearView shareholders to increase their shareholding through the reinvestment of any cash dividends in ordinary shares. ClearView intends to have the DRP active for future dividend periods until further notice.

New shareholders or shareholders who did not elect to participate in the DRP for the FY13 final dividend, can elect to participate in the DRP for the FY14 final dividend by updating their shareholding details online from the Computershare website www.computershare.com.au/easyupdate/cvw . For shareholders who have existing nominations, these nominations will be automatically applied for the FY14 final dividend, unless otherwise instructed. Change requests for existing nominations can be made by completing a change in participation form online at the Computershare website www.computershare.com. au/easyupdate/cvw .

Elections to participate in the DRP or changes to existing DRP elections must be made with Computershare by 5pm Friday 5 September 2014, which is the first business day after the record date for the FY14 final dividend.

Any shares issued to participating shareholders under the DRP will rank equally with existing fully paid ordinary shares.
