Item 8.01. Other Events.

On April 24, 2014, we announced that the ex-dividend date for holders of Chess Depositary Instruments trading on the Australian Securities Exchange will be May 16, 2014. This amends the ex-dividend date of May 14, 2014 that was included in our April 23, 2014 announcement.

Accordingly, the quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share will have a record date of May 20, 2014, and be payable on June 17, 2014. The dividend will be paid in U.S. currency to holders of ResMed’s common stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Holders of Chess Depositary Instruments trading on the Australian Securities Exchange will receive an equivalent amount in Australian currency, based on the exchange rate on the record date, and reflecting the 10:1 ratio between CDIs and NYSE shares. The ex-dividend date will be May 16, 2014 for both CDI holders and for common stock holders. ResMed has received a waiver from the ASX’s settlement operating rules, which will allow ResMed to defer processing conversions between its common stock and CDI registers from May 14, 2014 through May 20, 2014, inclusive.
