Shareholder enquiries
The Group's Registrar, Equiniti, maintains Man Group's share register. For enquiries about your shareholding please write to them at Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex BN99 6DA, or telephone 0871 384 2112*, Text tel: 0871 384 2255*, quoting Ref No 874. Callers from outside the UK should telephone +44 121 415 7592.
Alternatively, you can check your shareholding and dividend payments and update your details by logging on to Equiniti's website www.shareview.co.uk/shareholders/. To do this, you will need your shareholder reference number shown on your dividend tax voucher or share certificate.
Corporate website
Man has redesigned its corporate website to improve communication with a range of stakeholders, including institutional and private shareholders. The website www.mangroupplc.com now includes information about the industry in which we operate, our strategy and business performance, corporate responsibility initiatives, careers opportunities at Man and key information for shareholders such as dividend payment schedules. You can also download current and past Annual and Interim Reports under the 'Investor Relations' section of the website.
Electronic communications
The Company now offers shareholders the opportunity to receive documents via e-communications. To sign up for e-communications, rather than receive hard copy documents in the post, please log on to www.shareview.co.uk/shareholders/; all you need is your shareholder reference number. We will then notify you by email when shareholder communications are available on the Group's website www.mangroupplc.com.
Interim Report
As part of our e-communications programme, we have decided not to produce a printed copy of our Interim Report. Instead the Interim Report will be published on our website and will be available from early November each year. If at that time you would like us to send you a hard copy, please email shareholder@mangroupplc.com, telephone 020 7144 1000 or write to us at the address mentioned on the following page giving your full name and address.
Dividend payments made direct to your bank account
If you currently have your dividends paid by cheque, you can, if you wish, request that they be paid direct to your bank account or building society account on the day that the dividend is paid. This is convenient and helps reduce the risk of cheques becoming lost in the post. The associated tax voucher is still sent direct to your registered, or other previously designated, address.
If you live overseas, an Overseas Payment Service is available via Equiniti www.shareview.co.uk/shareholders/ for certain countries. This may make it possible to receive dividends direct into your bank account in your local currency.†
Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP)
The Group offers a DRIP for shareholders wishing to buy shares with their cash dividend. The final date for joining or leaving the DRIP in relation to the 2009 final dividend is 3.00pm on 3 July 2009. Instructions received after this date will be applied to the next dividend. Any queries on the DRIP, including requests for the DRIP terms and conditions and DRIP Mandate, should be addressed in the first instance to the dedicated Equiniti helpline on 0871 384 2268*. Alternatively, copies of these documents may be downloaded from the Man Group website under the 'Dividends' section of 'Shareholder Information'.
