GUINNESS PEAT GROUP PLC
Capitalisation Issue - Amended Timetable
Guinness Peat Group plc (the "Company") announced on 13 March 2009 that its Annual General Meeting would be delayed by a day from that originally announced, and that it would now be held in London on Friday 22 May 2009.
As a consequence, and in order to follow the Australian Securities Exchange timetable requirements, the Record Date for this year's Capitalisation Issue has been changed. Therefore, the following new dates will apply (actions take place on all three exchanges on which the Company's shares are listed unless otherwise indicated):
|
Ordinary Shares marked ex-Capitalisation and bonus shares traded on the ASX on a deferred settlement basis |
27 May 2009 |
|
|
Record Date for the Capitalisation Issue |
2 June 2009 |
|
|
Head Securities quoted ex-Capitalisation (NZX) |
3 June 2009 |
The remainder of the timetable, as set out in both the Preliminary Announcement of the Company's Results for 2008 and in the Circular to Shareholders dated 27 March 2009, is not changed.
