In March 2008, the directors of Alumina Limited (formerly WMC Limited) established a new Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“New DRP”) replacing the existing Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“Existing Plan”). The Existing Plan was suspended in 1998 and any residual cash balances were distributed to participating shareholders at that time. The Existing Plan was no longer consistent with current market practice and did not meet the present needs of the company and was terminated.

In February 2010, and in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Alumina Limited Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP), the directors decided to suspend the DRP until further notice.

Please note:  Notification will be placed on this website when there is any change to the DRP.  As the DRP is currently suspended, the below information on the DRP Rules and DRP Summary is for information only.

To obtain a DRP Election form or Variation Form, please contact Alumina Limited’s Share Registry (Computershare) on 1300 556 050.
