Dividends on ordinary shares


The British Land Company PLC

First Interim Dividend declared August
Second Interim Dividend declared November
Third Interim Dividend declared February
Final Dividend declared May

The final dividend for 2006/7 being paid on 17 August 2007 will contain no Property Income Dividend (PID) element. However, British Land expects that future dividend payments will comprise a mixture of both PID and non-PID dividends. The amount of the PID and non-PID elements of the dividend will be shown on the associated tax vouchers.

PID dividend payments will generally be paid out after deduction of withholding tax at the basic rate (22% for 2007/8 and 20% 2008/9 onwards). However, certain classes of shareholdermay be able to claim exemption from deduction of withholding tax. Examples of such classes are:

– UK Pension Schemes
– Local Authorities
– UK Companies
– Managers of PEPs, ISAs and Child Trust Funds
– UK Charities

It is expected that overseas shareholders and individual private shareholders will not be eligible to claim exemption from deduction of withholding tax. Forms for claiming exemption from withholding tax on PID dividend payments will be available shortly. For more information please visit www.britishland.com
