Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Rural Funds Group operates a distribution reinvestment plan in which all unitholders resident in Australia and New Zealand are eligible to participate at their election. The number of units received from a distribution is based on dividing the distribution (after deduction of taxes or any other payment or levy applicable) by the average of the daily volume weighted average price of units sold on the ASX in the 20 trading days before the record date less a discount of 1.5% on the calculated price.
Unitholders may change their participation in the plan at any time. However, in order to be valid and effective for a distribution payable, the election form to change participation must be submitted to the unit registry by the day after the nominated record date for that distribution.
Audit
This report is based on the consolidated financial statements that have been subject to an auditor’s review by PricewaterhouseCoopers. There are no items of dispute with the auditor and the auditor’s review is not subject to qualification.
