of the Transparency (Directive 2004/109/EC) Regulations 2007 as
amended (the “Regulations”), the Central Bank of Ireland’s
Transparency Rules (the “Transparency Rules”) and Commission
Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/761 of 17 December 2014.
ii Full name of the legal
entity and other identifying 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

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

financial instruments referred to in Regulation 17(1) of the
Regulations (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 Regulation
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:
-
in
the circumstances foreseen in letter (b) of Regulation 15 of the
Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), 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 the Regulation 15 of
the Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), 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 Regulation 15 of the
Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), 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 Regulation 15 of the
Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), the controlling
natural person or legal entity and, provided it has a notification
duty at an individual level under Regulation 14 of the Regulations
(Article 9 of Directive 2004/109/EC), under letters (a) to (d) of
Regulation 15 of the Regulations (Article 10 of Directive
2004/109/EC) or under a combination of any of those situations, the
controlled undertaking;
-
in
the circumstances foreseen in letter (f) of Regulation 15 of the
Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), 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 Regulation 15 of the
Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), the natural
person or legal entity that controls the voting rights;
-
in
the circumstances foreseen in letter (h) of Regulation 15 of the
Regulations (Article 10 of Directive 2004/109/EC), 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 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 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 (Regulation 17(4) of the
Regulations/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 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.
