Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The DRP is optional and offers ordinary shareholders in Australia and New Zealand the opportunity to acquire fully paid ordinary shares without transaction costs. Shares issued under the DRP will be derived from new issued ordinary shares. The shares will rank equally with other ordinary shares already on issue. The new shares will be issued at a price equal to the average (rounded to the nearest cent) of the daily volume weighted average market price of Duratec Ltd shares sold in the ordinary course of trading on the ASX over a period of 10 trading days beginning on the day after the relevant dividend record date, discounted by 5%, rounded to 4 decimal places. The last date for the receipt of an election notice for participation in the DRP in relation to the interim 2024 dividend is 19 March 2024.
