Item 2.02. Disclosure of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October 25, 2012 we issued the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1. It is incorporated into this report by reference. The press release describes the results of our operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On October 25, 2012, we announced that our board of directors declared a cash dividend of US $0.17 per share of outstanding common stock. We will pay the dividend in US currency to holders of our common stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), payable on December 18, 2012, to NYSE stockholders of record as of close of business on November 20, 2012. We will pay the dividend to holders of Chess Depositary Instruments (CDIs) trading on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), payable on December 18, 2012 to CDI holders as of November 20, 2012, at an equivalent amount in Australian currency, based on the exchange rate on November 20, 2012, and reflecting the 10:1 ratio between CDIs and NYSE shares. Because the two exchanges have different settlement and transfer procedures, the ex-dividend periods before the record date will be different for common stock and for CDIs. The ex-dividend date will be November 14, 2012 for CDI holders and November 16, 2012 for common stock holders. As a result of these differences, we have requested a waiver from the ASX’s settlement operating rules, which will allow us to defer processing conversions between its common stock and CDI registers from November 14, 2012 through November 20, 2012, inclusive.
