Dividend Payment Options

There are currently three options for receiving your dividend payments:
  • By Direct Credit to a nominated back account
  • By Cheque
  • Participation in the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP)*

We strongly encourage shareholders to consider having dividends paid by Direct Credit as this is the most efficient, timely and safe manner of receiving dividends.

*The Company announced on 30 September 2008 that the Dividend Re-Investment Plan (DRP) will be suspended with effect from 31 October 2008. The DRP will not apply to the proposed 25 cents fully franked dividend which is to be announced following the completion of the ConocoPhillips’ Transaction.

If you wish to participate in the DRP you can view the Plan rules online or you can obtain a copy from Link Market Services Limited (telephone 1300 664 446).

If you wish to change your current dividend election you can do this online.
