Other Disclosure Requirements

Dividend or distribution reinvestment plan details

The Company's Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) remains active. The DRP is optional and offers ordinary shareholders in Australia and New Zealand the opportunity to acquire fully paid ordinary shares without transaction costs. A shareholder can elect to participate in or terminate their involvement in the DRP at any time. Election notices for participation in the DRP in relation to the interim dividend to be paid on 18 December 2019 must be received by the registry by 5:00 pm on 13 November 2019 to be effective for that dividend. The DRP shares will be purchased on-market(2) and the allocation price will be the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average market price of all Macquarie Group shares sold through a normal trade on the ASX trading system over the five business days commencing on the fourth business day after the Election Date of 13 November 2019. The DRP shares will rank pari passu with other fully paid ordinary shares then on issue.

  1. Shares will be issued if purchasing on-market becomes impractical or inadvisable.
