       Luxembourg II S.à.r.l. no longer held directly or indirectly any 
       financial instruments that grant the right to acquire shares in

       instead of those financial instruments. If Qatar Holding 
       Luxembourg II S.à.r.l. had held shares in Volkswagen AG instead 
       of such financial instruments it would have held 0.00 % of the
