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). Indicate in
the relevant section whether the issuer is a non UK issuer.
(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 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 10 (a) of Directive
2004/109/EC (DTR5.2.1 (a)) or (d) the holder of financial
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 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 (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 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 (DTR5.2.1 (g)), the natural person or legal entity
that controls the voting rights;
- in the circumstances foreseen in letter (h) of Article 10 of
that Directive (DTR5.2.1 (h)), 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 (DTR5.2.1 (b) to (h). 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 (DTR5.2) 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) (DTR 5.3.3.A).
(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.
