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). Indicate in the relevant section whether the issuer
is a non UK issuer.
(iii) Other reason for the notification could be voluntary notifications,

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 DTR5.2.1 (b) to (h)/ Article 10 (b) to (h) of
Directive 2004/109/EC; (c) all parties to the agreement referred to in Article

instruments referred to in Article 13(1) of Directive 2004/109/EC (DTR5.3.1).
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 (DTR5.2.1 (b) to (h)), 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
(DTR5.2.1 (b)), 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
(DTR5.2.1 (c)), 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
(DTR5.2.1 (d)), the natural person or legal entity who has a life interest in

of the voting rights when the life interest is created;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (e) of Article 10 of that Directive
(DTR5.2.1 (e)), the controlling natural person or legal entity and, provided
it has a notification duty at an individual level under Article 9 (DTR 5.1),
under letters (a) to (d) of Article 10 of that Directive (DTR5.2.1 (a) to (d))
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
(DTR5.2.1 (f)), 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

shareholder who is the counterparty to the natural person or legal entity

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.

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.
