Notes
^i Please note that national forms may vary due to specific national
legislation (Article 3(1a) of Directive 2004/109/EC) as for instance the
applicable thresholds or information regarding capital holdings.
^ii Full name of the legal entity and further specification of the issuer
or underlying issuer, provided it is reliable and accurate (e.g. address,
LEI, domestic number identity).
^iii Other reason for the notification could be voluntary notifications,
changes of attribution of the nature of the holding (e.g. expiring of
financial instruments) or acting in concert.
^iv This should be the full name of (a) the shareholder; (b) the natural
person or legal entity acquiring, disposing of or exercising voting rights
in the cases provided for in Article 10 (b) to (h) of Directive
2004/109/EC; or (c) the holder of financial instruments referred to in
Article 13(1) of Directive 2004/109/EC.
As the disclosure of cases of acting in concert may vary due to the
specific circumstances (e.g. same or different total positions of the
parties, entering or exiting of acting in concert by a single party) the
standard form does not provide for a specific method how to notify cases
of acting in concert.
In relation to the transactions referred to in points (b) to (h) of
Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC, the following list is provided as
indication of the persons who should be mentioned:
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (b) of Article 10 of that
Directive, the natural person or legal entity that acquires the voting
rights and is entitled to exercise them under the agreement and the
natural person or legal entity who is transferring temporarily for
consideration the voting rights;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (c) of Article 10 of that
Directive, the natural person or legal entity holding the collateral,
provided the person or entity controls the voting rights and declares its
intention of exercising them, and natural person or legal entity lodging
the collateral under these conditions;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (d) of Article 10 of that
Directive, the natural person or legal entity who has a life interest in
shares if that person or entity is entitled to exercise the voting rights
attached to the shares and the natural person or legal entity who is
disposing of the voting rights when the life interest is created;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (e) of Article 10 of that
Directive, the controlling natural person or legal entity and, provided it
has a notification duty at an individual level under Article 9, under
letters (a) to (d) of Article 10 of that Directive or under a combination
of any of those situations, the controlled undertaking;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (f) of Article 10 of that
Directive, the deposit taker of the shares, if he can exercise the voting
rights attached to the shares deposited with him at his discretion, and
the depositor of the shares allowing the deposit taker to exercise the
voting rights at his discretion;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (g) of Article 10 of that
Directive, the natural person or legal entity that controls the voting
rights;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (h) of Article 10 of that
Directive, the proxy holder, if he can exercise the voting rights at his
discretion, and the shareholder who has given his proxy to the proxy
holder allowing the latter to exercise the voting rights at his discretion
(e.g. management companies).
^v Applicable in the cases provided for in Article 10 (b) to (h) of
Directive 2004/109/EC. This should be the full name of the shareholder who
is the counterparty to the natural person or legal entity referred to in
Article 10 of that Directive unless the percentage of voting rights held
by the shareholder is lower than the lowest notifiable threshold for the
disclosure of voting rights holdings in accordance with national practices
(e.g. identification of funds managed by management companies).
^vi The date on which threshold is crossed or reached should be the date
on which the acquisition or disposal took place or the other reason
triggered the notification obligation. For passive crossings, the date
when the corporate event took effect.
^vii The total number of voting rights shall be composed of all the
shares, including depository receipts representing shares, to which voting
rights are attached even if the exercise thereof is suspended.
^viii If the holding has fallen below the lowest applicable threshold in
accordance with national law, please note that it might not be necessary
in accordance with national law to disclose the extent of the holding,
only that the new holding is below that threshold.
^ix In case of combined holdings of shares with voting rights attached
'direct holding' and voting rights 'indirect holding', please split the
voting rights number and percentage into the direct and indirect columns –
if there is no combined holdings, please leave the relevant box blank.
^x Date of maturity/expiration of the financial instrument i.e. the date
when right to acquire shares ends.
^xi If the financial instrument has such a period – please specify this
period – for example once every 3 months starting from date .
^xii In case of cash settled instruments the number and percentages of
voting rights is to be presented on a delta-adjusted basis (Article 13(1a)
of Directive 2004/109/EC).
^xiii If the person subject to the notification obligation is either
controlled and/or does control another undertaking then the second option
applies.
^xiv The full chain of controlled undertakings starting with the ultimate
controlling natural person or legal entity has to be presented also in the
cases, in which only on subsidiary level a threshold is crossed or reached
and the subsidiary undertaking discloses the notification as only thus the
markets get always the full picture of the group holdings. In case of
multiple chains through which the voting rights and/or financial
instruments are effectively held the chains have to be presented chain by
chain leaving a row free between different chains (e.g.: A, B, C, free
row, A, B, D, free row, A, E, F etc.).
^xv The names of controlled undertakings through which the voting rights
and/or financial instruments are effectively held have to be presented
irrespectively whether the controlled undertakings cross or reach the
lowest applicable threshold themselves.
^xvi Example: Correction of a previous notification.
