Abstract: Abstract On June 29, 2001, BHP Limited and Billiton Plc completed the formation of a Dual Listed Companies structure, or DLC. To affect the DLC, BHP Limited and Billiton Plc entered into certain contractual arrangements which were designed to place the shareholders of both companies in a position where they effectively had an interest in a single group that combined the assets and was subject to all the liabilities of both companies. BHP Billiton Limited and BHP Billiton Plc had each retained their separate corporate identities and maintained their separate stock exchange listings. BHP Billiton Limited had a primary listing on the ASX and secondary listings in London, Frankfurt, Wellington, Zurich and, in the form of ADSs, on the New York Stock Exchange. BHP Billiton Plc has a primary listing in London and secondary listings in Johannesburg and Paris.
