Details for dividend declaration and dividend reinvestment plan

The dividend has been declared in U.S. dollars and the Canadian-dollar equivalent will be determined based on the daily average rate posted by the Bank of Canada on the record date. Under Canadian tax legislation, Canadian resident individuals who receive eligible dividends are entitled to an enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit on such dividends.

The company has a dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP), which allows shareholders of Franco-Nevada to reinvest dividends to purchase additional common shares at the average market price, as defined in the DRIP, subject to a discount from the average market price in the case of treasury acquisitions. The company will issue additional common shares through treasury at a 1-per-cent discount to the average market price. The company may, from time to time, in its discretion, change or eliminate the discount applicable to treasury acquisitions or direct that such common shares be purchased in market acquisitions at the prevailing market price, any of which would be publicly announced. Participation in the DRIP is optional. The DRIP and enrolment forms are available on the company's website. Canadian and U.S. registered shareholders may also enroll in the DRIP on-line through the plan agent's self-service Web portal. Canadian and U.S. beneficial shareholders should contact their financial intermediary to arrange enrolment. Non-Canadian and non-U.S. shareholders may potentially participate in the DRIP, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Non-Canadian and non-U.S. shareholders should contact the company to determine whether they satisfy the necessary conditions to participate in the DRIP.
