• c) the holder of financial instruments referred to in section 39 of the Capital Markets Act.

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 on how to notify cases of acting in concert.

In relation to the transactions referred to in sentences (2) to (8) of section 38(2) of the Capital Markets Act, the following list is provided as indication of the persons who should be mentioned:

• - in the circumstances foreseen in section 38(2)(2) of the Capital Markets Act, 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 section 38(2)(3) of the Capital Markets Act, 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 section 38(2)(4) of the Capital Markets Act, 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 section 38(2)(5) of the Capital Markets Act, the controlling natural person or legal entity and, provided it has a notification duty at an individual level under section 38(1), under sentences (1) to (4) of section 38(2) of the Capital Markets Act, or under a combination of any of those situations, the controlled undertaking;

• - in the circumstances foreseen in section 38(2)(8) of the Capital Markets Act, 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).

i Full name of the issuer. With regard to financial instruments by issuer means the issuer of the underlying share.

iv National identification number of the natural person or legal entity if such exists.

v Applicable in the cases provided for in section 38(2)(2-8) of the Capital Markets Act. This should be the full name of the shareholder who is the counterparty to the natural person or legal entity referred to in section 38(2) of that Act 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 a 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.

• viii Present the voting rights or share capital that the natural person or legal entity subject to notification holds directly or indirectly. Direct holding means the shares held by the natural person or legal entity subject to notification itself or held by the natural person or legal entity subject to notification in its own name, but on behalf of a natural person or legal entity. Indirect holding means that the natural person or legal entity subject to notification holds the share through a controlled company or a chain of controlledundertakings.

• xiii 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 at subsidiary level, a threshold is crossed or reached and the subsidiary undertaking discloses the notification, as this is the only way for the markets to always get 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.).

• xiv The names of controlled undertakings through which the voting rights or share capital 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.
