We are aiming to pay a stable to rising dividend. We have introduced a stock dividend option with cash dividend as default. Given our strong fundamentals and as a signal of confidence in our ability to deliver the performance improvement program in challenging markets, we will propose a 2011 final dividend of €1.12 per share, which would make a total 2011 dividend of €1.45 (2010: €1.40) per share.
