DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

Auckland, New Zealand, 5 July 2010 - Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited (NZSX:FPH, ASX:FPH) advises that the strike price for the dividend reinvestment plan (DRP) operating in respect of the dividend payable on Friday 9 July 2010 has been set at NZ$2.9923 per share. The strike price is inclusive of the 3% discount and is calculated as 97% of the volume weighted average sale price for an ordinary share calculated on all price setting trades of shares which took place through the NZSX over a period of 5 trading days immediately following the dividend record date of 25 June 2010.

Shareholders who have elected to participate in the DRP reinvest their dividends to receive additional shares, rather than cash. The number of Fisher & Paykel Healthcare shares to which participants are entitled is calculated by multiplying the net dividend per share by the number of that participant's participating shares and then dividing that number by the issue price of NZ$2.9923.
