Additional Information for Shareholders continued
ShareGift
The Company supports ShareGift, a registered charity share donation scheme
administered by the Orr Mackintosh Foundation. Through ShareGift, shareholders
who have only a small number of shares which might be considered uneconomic
to sell are able to donate them to charity. Donated shares are aggregated and
sold by ShareGift, the proceeds being passed on to a wide range of UK charities.
Donating shares to charity gives rise neither to a gain nor a loss for UK Capital
Gains Tax purposes and, following changes in recent budgets, UK taxpayers may
also be able to claim income tax relief on such gifts of shares.
Transfer forms specifically for Vodafone shareholders are available from the
Company’s Registrars, Computershare Investor Services PLC, and even if the
share certificate has been lost or destroyed the gift can be completed. Further
details about ShareGift can be obtained from its website at www.sharegift.org or
at The Orr Mackintosh Foundation, 24 Grosvenor Gardens, London SW1W 0DH
(telephone: [phone]).
The Unclaimed Assets Register
The Company participates in the Unclaimed Assets Register, which provides a
search facility for financial assets which may have been forgotten and which
donates a proportion of its public search fees to a group of three UK charities
(Age Concern, NSPCC and Scope). For further information, contact
The Unclaimed Assets Register, Lloyds Chambers, 1 Portsoken Street, London
E1 8DF (telephone: [phone]), or its website at www.uar.co.uk.
