This excerpt taken from the SIG 20-F filed May 4, 2007. Substantial shareholdings and control of the Company
So far as the Company is aware, it is neither directly nor indirectly owned by or controlled by one or more corporations or by any government. As at 17 April 2007 the interests in the issued shares set out in the table on page 120 had been notified to the Company in accordance with sections 198 to 208 of the Companies Act 1985 (“1985 Act”) (including interests represented by the ADSs) and with the provisions of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules (“DTR 5”) that were brought into effect on 20 January 2007. Under the 1985 Act shareholders were obliged to notify the Company of their interests in such shares if they held 3.0% or more beneficially or 10.0% or more in the case of certain shareholders, such as investment managers. Under DTR 5 notification is based on direct or indirect control of voting rights attached to shares rather than the ‘interests in shares’ test set out in section 198. The disclosure threshold for a UK incorporated company remains the same at 3.0%, and then at each 1.0% change thereafter. The Company’s major shareholders as listed in the table on page 120 do not have different voting rights per share than other holders of the Company’s shares. The following shareholders had significant changes in their percentage ownership of the Company’s issued share capital since 31 January 2004. This is based on disclosure made in the accounts for each of the three years since 31 January 2004 and notification received by the Company.
