Pursuant to tax legislation, Canadian resident individuals who receive "eligible dividends" will be entitled to an enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit on such dividends. Yamana Gold has designated that all dividends paid by Yamana Gold Inc. are "eligible dividends" for these purposes.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP)
The Company has adopted a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP). Participation in the DRIP is optional. Participants in the DRIP may obtain additional common shares of the Company by automatically reinvesting all or any portion of the cash dividends paid on common shares held by the DRIP participant without paying any brokerage commissions, administrative costs or other service charges. The Company may, from time to time, in its discretion, direct that such common shares be purchased in the open market on the Toronto Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange at the prevailing market price, any of which would be publicly announced, rather than issuing such common shares from treasury.
