Share dealing in Farmer Business Developments
plc - Davy (Select) Stockbrokers
Private Grey Market
Davy is pleased to offer a special rate of commission for Farmer Business Developments plc shareholders who wish to sell their share certificates and for the purchase of shares by approved buyers on the Company's private grey market.
The commission rate on sales is 1% subject to a minimum of €50 per trade.
The commission rate on purchases is 0.5% subject to a minimum of €30 per trade.
It is very simple to avail of this service. All you have to do is complete a Telephone Share Dealing Application Form, and provide a proof of identity. We require one name verification document (see my notes at the bottom of this page) and two address verification documents. Further details are in our application form, which is available on request from Davy. ( 01 614 9000 )
To sell your shares, you will need to include a letter of instruction (request to sell) with the share certificates and a signed stock transfer form.
( You then need to phone Davy, after these papers have arrived with them, to set either a "limit minimum price" that your shares cannot be sold for less than, or instruct them to sell the shares "at best price available". If you are in a hurry, or have a large amount to sell, you may have to set, or accept, a price that's much, much lower than "last traded price" in order for Davy to find enough buyers.)
As
part of the grey market trading process, all trades require the approval
of Farmer Business Developments plc prior to execution to ensure that the
character of the Company is maintained as a farmers' company. ( A
new farmer shareholder must be a member of IFA, AND insured with FBD for
3 years before applying. )
Davy can provide shareholders with information on recent market activity
and share prices. Recent trades, prices and volumes are also available
on www.FarmerBusinessDevelopments.ie.
If you require any further information, please call Davy's dedicated
dealing desk directly on 01 614 9000 between the hours of 8am - 5pm
( Monday to Friday except Bank Holidays).
Alternatively you can email davyselect@davy.ie

More
about Identity and Address documents
When you are opening an account you cannot use the same document as proof of both your identity and your address. The requirements set out here are minimum requirements and Davy might look for further information.
Proof of identity ( only 1 needed )
You
can prove your identity with any of the following:
1] A valid passport
2] A current Irish driving licence
3] A National Age Card (issued by An Garda Síochána)
4] An identification form with a photograph signed by a member of An
Garda Síochána
5] Documents issued by government departments showing your name.
Government documents that do not have your photograph must be verified by a person in a position of responsibility such as a solicitor, accountant, doctor or social worker who knows you. If a social worker, that person must also submit proof of their own identity.
Proof of address ( 2 of these needed )
You
can provide evidence of your address with any of these documents:
1] A current utility bill (such as a gas, electricity or telephone or
mobile phone bill)
2] A current car or home insurance policy that shows your address
3] A document issued by a government department that shows your address
4] A list of your tax credits
5] A current balancing statement from Revenue
6] A social insurance document (that shows your address)
Copies
of all documentation used to establish the identity of the customer
must be retained by Davy for 5 years after an account is closed. Also,
copies of transactions must be kept for 5 years after the date of
the transaction.
