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.
