Shareholders who reside outside of the United States can elect to receive their dividend in US dollars, payable into a US financial institution account. Shareholders must make an election to alter their dividend currency on or before the election date of Wednesday August 26, 2020 by contacting the Woodside share registry on 1300 558 507 (within Australia) or +61 3 9415 4632 (outside Australia).

Shareholders who reside outside of the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia may elect to receive their dividend electronically in their local currency using the share registry's Global Wire Payment Service.
