Distribution History
Click here for historical DRIP prices.
Penn West Petroleum Ltd. converted to Penn West Energy Trust effective May 31, 2005. Following the conversion, shareholders received three (3) units of Penn West Energy Trust (PWT.UN on the TSX; PWE on the NYSE) in exchange for each Penn West common share. This conversion will generally result in a shareholder resident in Canada realizing a capital gain (or a capital loss) which is equal to the amount the deemed capital disposition of $84.77* exceeds (or is less than) the aggregate of the shareholder's adjusted cost base of the common shares which are ultimately exchanged for trust units and any reasonable cost of disposition. The first distribution of the Trust was July 15, 2005.
For 2008, Penn West Energy Trust has determined that for Canadian resident unitholders, the distributions will be 100 percent taxable with no return of capital. For 2008, Penn West Energy Trust has determined that for U.S. resident unitholders, the distributions will be 100 percent taxable as a qualified dividend with no return of capital.
* Capital disposition is based on the three day average share price prior to May 27th, the date of shareholder approval of the plan of arrangement.
