Dividend policy





                            Alternatives to cash dividends




                    Share repurchase – Buy back of shares, particularly if the amount of surplus
                     cash available would distort normal dividend policy

                    Scrip dividends – allowing shareholders to take their dividends in the form of
                     new shares rather than cash.
