Scrip Dividend Reference Price

Goldenport Holdings Inc. ('Goldenport' or the 'Company'), (LSE: GPRT) announces that the scrip dividend reference price for the fully paid shares of common stock of USD 0.01 each to be issued to shareholders who elect to receive the scrip dividend alternative for the final dividend for the year ended 31 December 2010 will be 110.30 pence per share.

 

The reference price is calculated as the average of the mid-market price for the Company's shares for the five consecutive dealing days commencing on 9 March 2011, being the Company's Ex-Dividend Date for the 2010 final dividend.

 

A shareholder electing for the scrip dividend alternative rather than cash would receive one new share for approximately every 30.64 shares registered in their name on the Record Date. A balancing cash payment will be made for any fractions of new shares that would be received under the scrip dividend alternative on which no election is possible.

 

The detailed terms of the scrip dividend option for the 2010 final dividend will be set out the circular to be sent to shareholders on or around 30 March 2011.

 

The opportunity to elect to receive the scrip dividend in place of the cash dividend is not being offered to any person who is, or whom the Company believes is, resident in the United States of America, Canada, Australia, South Africa or Japan or their respective territories or possessions (subject to applicable exemptions) or in any jurisdiction outside the United Kingdom where the offer requires compliance by the Company with any governmental or regulatory procedures or any similar formalities. Further details related to the eligibility of shareholders to elect to accept the scrip dividend option will be set out in the circular.
