Mondi Group – 2022 Interim Dividend ZAR/euro Exchange Rate
This morning in our half-year results announcement we announced
that an interim dividend for the year ending 31 December 2022 of 21.67
euro cents per ordinary share will be paid on Thursday
29 September 2022 to all Mondi plc
ordinary shareholders on either the UK main register or the South
African branch register on Friday 26 August
2022.
Mondi plc will pay its dividend in euro. However, ordinary
shareholders resident in the United
Kingdom will receive the dividend in sterling (unless
shareholders have elected to receive their dividend in euro). The
last date for euro currency elections will be Monday 12 September 2022. The exchange rate will be set
on Friday 16 September 2022.
Shareholders holding their shares on the South African branch
register will receive the dividend in South African rand cents,
converted at a rate of EUR 1 to
ZAR 17.10848. Therefore, the
equivalent gross interim dividend in rand cents per ordinary share
will be 370.74076.
For shareholders holding their shares on the South African
branch register, the dividend will, for South African dividends tax
purposes, be taxed like local dividends. As such, for South
African tax resident shareholders holding their shares on the South
African branch register, dividends withholding tax will be withheld
from the dividends payable to these shareholders at a rate of 20%,
unless a shareholder qualifies for an exemption, resulting in a net
dividend of 296.59261 rand cents per
ordinary share. Shareholders holding their shares on the South
African branch register who are not tax resident in South Africa are exempted from South African
dividends withholdings tax.
For the purposes of South
Africa dividends tax reporting, the source of income for the
payment of the dividend is the United
Kingdom.
Additional Information
The interim dividend will be paid from income reserves.

which 187,165,651 were held on the branch register, excluding
