Notes:

(1) D: For Property Funds we have shown where possible the value of the gross amount of distribution followed by the components (Tax Advantaged, Tax Deferred, Franked etc). Many Funds do not calculate the components until the final distribution for the year, which is
after we publish. For those funds we cannot supply all the information at this time.

(2) DIV : All dividends are quoted in cents per share. The date used is that given by the Company as the cheque preparation/EFT transfer date. Where the dividend is partly franked it is coded as DIV and has the Franked amount shown, as well as other component amounts where applicable. The dividend is coded F if 100% Franked or U if 100% Unfranked

(3) DRP/BSP/IRP : The Dividend Reinvestment Price or Bonus Share Price or Interest Reinvestment Price is the allocation price per share where dividends/interest are to be reinvested in lieu of
payment in cash. They are listed in dollar values. Where SUSP is listed, the DRP has been temporarily or permanently suspended.

(4) MV : Market Values are as at 30th June, except where companies are suspended. In those cases the market value is from the last day they traded.

(5) OPT, C/NOTE, PREF : The date given in the listing for Options, Convertible Notes and Convertible Preference Shares is the final date for conversion.
