Dividend restrictions

The Office Fund is subject to legal restrictions regarding the amount of dividends it can pay to its shareholders. Dutch Law stipulates that dividends can only be paid up to an amount equal to the excess of the Fund’s own funds over the sum of the paid-up capital, statutory reserves and reserves required by law.

The revaluation reserve, being a legal reserve, cannot be freely distributed. Dividends are all payments from the free reserves. The free reserves consist of the share premium and retained earnings. Dividend will consist partly of profits and other payments.

In order to further align the processing of the distributable dividends with Dutch Law and taking into account the FII status of the Fund, the distributable dividends are made from retained earnings insofar the retained earnings – being the total amount of retained earnings and result for the year – are not negative. The remaining amount of legally required distributable dividends is subsequently made from share premium. Any residual negative retained earnings is supplemented from the share premium.
