Electronic and Printed Communications

The Companies Act 2006 enables shareholders to specify the way in which they wish companies to communicate with them.

In February 2011 and periodically since then we have asked shareholders who were still receiving the Annual report if they would like to change to receiving information electronically (by email and via our website). The advantages of electronic communication are:

• Receiving shareholder information speedily and efficiently
• Reducing the demand on natural resources
• Helping your Company reduce its costs

As a shareholder, you may still choose to receive all communications from DS Smith in printed form, but if you no longer require printed documents and would like to receive electronic notification of the publication of shareholder documents on DS Smith’s website, please register at www.shareview.co.uk
