  The payment by the board of any unclaimed dividend or other monies payable on or in respect of a share into a separate account shall not constitute the company a trustee in respect thereof. All unclaimed dividends or other moneys payable on or in respect of a share may be invested or otherwise made use of by the board for the benefit of the company until claimed; but so that any such dividend unclaimed after a period of12 years from the date such dividend first became due for payment shall be forfeited and shall revert to the company and any monies payable on or in respect of a fractional interest in a share remaining unclaimed after a period of12 years from the date upon which the same first became due for payment, shall be forfeited and shall revert to the company. In the case of a dividend resolved to be paid under article132, the above period of12 years shall be calculated from the date specified in the relevant resolution of the board as the date for payment of the dividend.

Share-based Payment ReserveShare-based payment reserve includes premiums on shares issued, credits resulting from redemption or conversion of shares, fair value of stock options issued to employees and directors, unclaimed dividends, and any other contribution by shareholders in excess of amounts allocated t share capital.

It’s not uncommon for questions to arise about whether a financial liability, such as an account payable, can be removed from the balance sheet, for example because the entity has lost track of the creditor, and no longer expects ever to have to pay the amount. Although this might seem intuitively reasonable, it’s difficult to square with IAS39.AG37, which says a financial liability is extinguished when the debtor either discharges it by paying the creditor, or is legally released from primary responsibility for it, either by process of law or by the creditor. If the creditor hasn’t given a release, and the process of law hasn’t yet intervened (for example, to define unclaimed liabilities above a certain age as being extinguished just by the passage of time), then it seems the liability has to keep on sitting there, however unlikely it might seem it'll ever be settled.
