9. Chain of controlled undertakings through which the voting rights and/or the financial instruments are effectively held, if applicable: ^xxi
PCP holds voting rights in relation to 758,437,618 ordinary shares in Barclays PLC. PCP is, in turn, wholly owned by NCIL and NCIL is in turn wholly owned by ADIUI, which is in turn wholly owned by HHSM. The cash-settled options are legally owned by Yas Capital Limited ("YCL"). YCL is, in turn, wholly owned by HHSM. For the avoidance of doubt, YCL has no right to acquire or exercise any voting rights in Barclays PLC. The triggering event is an increase in the total voting rights in Barclays PLC to 12,860,575,306 as set out in the regulatory announcement dated 26 February 2013. Accordingly, as a result of the triggering event, PCP holds directly, and HHSM, ADIUI and NCIL hold indirectly, 5.897% of the voting rights in Barclays PLC through PCP's holding of voting rights in relation to ordinary shares. PCP therefore now holds less than the 6% threshold for voting rights and its change in holding is notifiable pursuant to DTR 5.1.2R.
