BUNZL SCRIP DIVIDEND SCHEME
The Company offers shareholders the opportunity to take new ordinary shares, credited as fully paid, in lieu of cash dividends, by participating in a scrip dividend scheme.
In relation to the interim dividend for 2009, the price of a new ordinary share under the scrip dividend alternative has been set at 649.4 pence. This is the average of the Company's middle market closing price for the five consecutive dealing days commencing on the ex-dividend date of 11 November 2009.
Shareholders wishing to elect to participate in the scrip dividend scheme may do so either by completing a mandate form and returning it to the Company's Registrar, Computershare Investor Services PLC, at The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY or electronically through our Registrar's Investor Centre at www.investorcentre.co.uk or by using the CREST procedures for those shareholders who hold their shares in CREST. All elections to participate in the scrip dividend scheme (whether by completing the mandate form or electronically) must be received by the Registrar by no later than 5.00 pm on 9 December 2009.
