What computer equipment do I need to receive electronic shareholder communications?
You will need a mobile phone to receive alerts by SMS. For email alerts/communication, you will need a computer linked to the Internet, an e-mail account, a web browser (such as the one you are using to read this page) and a PDF reader. The PDF reader is necessary because many of our electronic communications are downloaded in a PDF format to enable easy printing. You can download a PDF reader called Adobe Acrobat Reader for free at http://www.adobe.
If you have a computer linked to the Internet you’ll almost certainly be able to receive shareholder communications electronically. If you don’t have a computer, public internet facilities such as those available in libraries offer a good alternative. In addition to an e-mail account, you’ll need a web browser and a PDF reader. The PDF reader is necessary as we send many of our electronic communications in PDF format. If you don’t have a PDF reader. click here to download Adobe Acrobat for free. You should also be able to receive shareholder communications electronically on a BlackBerry or similar handheld device.
