1. For the purposes of facilitating the exercise of rights by the shareholder in a general meeting, including the right to participate and vote, as referred to in Article 3c(1) of Directive 2007/36/EC, intermediaries shall, if required by the issuer and upon request by the shareholder, transmit the notice of participation to the issuer, either to enable the shareholder to exercise the rights themselves or to enable the shareholder to nominate a third party to exercise those rights upon explicit authorisation and instruction by the shareholder for the shareholder's benefit. 2. Where the notice of participation includes a reference to the votes, the last intermediary shall ensure that the information regarding the number of shares voted is consistent with the entitled position.

The minimum types of information and data elements, which the notice of participation by shareholder in a general meeting shall comprise, shall be as set out in Table 5 of the Annex.
