These notifications of disclosable interests constitute separate notifications of interest in the shares and are combined solely for the purposes of clarity. Nothing herein should be taken to indicate that FMR Corp. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, Fidelity International Limited and its direct and indirect subsidiaries or Mr Edward C Johnson 3d act as a group or in concert in respect of the disclosed interests, or that they are required to submit these notifications on a joint basis. 6. The disclosable interests arise under section 208(4) (b) of the Act, namely where a person, not being the registered holder, is entitled to exercise a right conferred by the holding of the shares or to control the exercise of such rights, or under section 203 of the Act respectively. 7.
