EXCHANGE RATE FOR 2009 FINAL DIVIDEND PAYABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS ON THE SOUTH
AFRICAN REGISTER
Liberty International PLC confirms that the South African Rand exchange rate for
the 2009 final dividend of 11.5 pence per ordinary share to be paid on 9 June
2010, to shareholders registered on 21 May 2010, will be 11.471 ZAR to 1 GBP.
Liberty International is a Real Estate Investment Trust and will pay the final
dividend partly as a Property Income Distribution ("PID") with a gross value of
8.5 pence per share, which will be subject to deduction of a 20% withholding
tax, and partly as a non-PID with a value of 3.0 pence per share.
Accordingly shareholders who hold their shares via the South African register
will receive a dividend per ordinary share as follows:
Gross amount of dividend 131.9165 ZA cents (GBP pence 11.5p)
Payable as:
PID element 97.5035 ZA cents (GBP pence 8.5p)
Less 20% withholding tax 19.5007 ZA cents (GBP pence 1.7p)
Net PID dividend payable 78.0028 ZA cents (GBP pence 6.8p)
Non-PID element 34.4130 ZA cents (GBP pence 3.0p)
Total net dividend payable 112.4158 ZA cents (GBP pence 9.8p)
South African shareholders may apply, after payment of the dividend, to the UK
tax authority for a refund of the difference between the 20% withholding tax and
the UK/South African double taxation treaty rate of 15%. Liberty International
will account to UK HM Revenue & Customs in sterling for the tax withheld.
Settlement of any claims for refund will also be calculated and settled in
sterling.
The information given above will assist with applications for refunds. For
information on PIDs and refund claims, including claim forms and guidance on how
to complete them, visit www.liberty-international.co.uk. A helpline for
questions relating to the withholding tax and to request claim forms is
available until 31 July 2010 on 086 110 0915 (+27 11 373 0056 if calling from
outside South Africa). Calls from within South Africa are toll-free.
With regard to the demerger of the Capital & Counties business which is expected
to become unconditional later today, it should be noted that the above dividend
will only be payable to holders of Liberty International PLC (to be renamed
Capital Shopping Centres Group PLC) shares on the register on 21 May 2010.
Holders of Capital & Counties Properties PLC shares on 21 May have no
eligibility for this dividend.
