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).

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 Regulation 15(b) to (h) of

the holder of 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.
