13. Additional information:	This notification is due to crossing below the 5% voting right threshold of shares under management due to a combination of trading and an increase in stock out on loan. As the voting rights are transferred to the borrower, our total holding has decreased below the 5% voting right threshold. The total holding including the right to recall lent shares remains above 5%.
