Scrip Calculation Price
Assura plc ("the Company") announces, in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Company's Scrip Dividend Scheme ("the
Scheme"), that the Scrip Calculation Price in respect of the
quarterly interim dividend proposed to be paid on 14 October 2020,
is 79.24 pence. This is the average closing mid-market price of an
ordinary share in the Company for the five dealing days commencing
with, and including, the ex-dividend date of 10 September 2020.
If you wish to receive this quarterly interim dividend in cash,
you do not need to take any action.
If you wish to participate in the Scheme and receive New Shares
instead of your cash dividend, you should complete a Mandate, as
follows:
-- If you hold your Ordinary Shares in certificated form, and if
you have not already done so, you should complete the Mandate Form
(which is available to download from Assura's website
www.assuraplc.com) in accordance with the instructions printed
thereon and return it to Link Asset Services at The Registry, 34
Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TU by no later than 4.30 p.m.
(London time) on 30 September 2020. The Mandate Form will remain in
force for any future dividends in respect of which a Scrip Dividend
Alternative is offered, until such time as the Mandate Form is
cancelled.
-- If you hold your Ordinary Shares in uncertificated form via
the CREST System, you can only elect to receive dividends in the
form of New Shares by submitting a CREST Dividend Election Input
Message via the CREST System. Evergreen elections will not be
permitted. This means that if you wish to receive New Shares
instead of cash as a matter of routine whenever a Scrip Dividend
Alternative is offered, you must complete and submit a CREST
Dividend Election Input Message on each occasion, otherwise you
will receive the relevant dividend in cash.
If you have any questions about the Scheme or how it operates,
you can contact our Registrar, Link Asset Services, at the address
above or by telephone on 0371 664 0321. Lines are open between
9.00am and 5.30pm Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays.
Based upon the above Scrip Calculation Price, if all eligible
Shareholders were to elect to take up their full entitlement to New
Shares in respect of this quarterly interim dividend, approximately
23,853,401 New Shares would be issued. This would represent
approximately 1 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital as
at today's date. The total cash cost of this quarterly interim
dividend if no Shareholders were to elect to take up their
entitlement (and therefore no New Shares were to be issued) would
be approximately GBP18.9 million.
Words and expressions defined in the circular dated 9 December
2015 in relation to the Scheme bear the same meanings in this
announcement.
This interim dividend will be paid as 100% Property Income
Distribution ("PID"). F orms to register for gross PIDs are
available on the Company's website. Please click here for PID Forms
