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.

15 of the Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), the following
list is provided as an indication of the persons who should be mentioned:

of the Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), the controlling

Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC) or under a combination of

(v) Applicable in the cases provided for in Regulation 15(b) to (h) of the
Regulations (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 Regulation 15 of the Regulations (Article 10
Directive 2004/109/EC) 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 the requirements of the
Regulations and the Transparency Rules.

(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 the Regulations and the Transparency Rules the holder is not
obliged to disclose the extent of the holding only that the holding is
“below 3%” or “below 5%” as appropriate.

(ix) In case of combined holdings of shares with voting rights attached
"direct holding" and voting rights "indirect holding", please split the voting

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 cases
in which only on subsidiary level a threshold is crossed or reached and the
subsidiary undertaking discloses the notification, as only thus will the
markets get a full picture of the group holdings. In the 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
irrespective of whether the controlled undertakings cross or reach the lowest
applicable threshold themselves.

(xvi) Example: Correction of a previous notification
