I think your quote is from the link below, which has some more info.
"A cash-settled equity derivative is settled by the exchange of cash rather than the exchange of the underlying shares. It is common in the case of a cash-settled equity derivative for the writer of the derivative to hedge its position by acquiring the underlying shares, but there is usually no obligation to do so."

My quick review suggest the derivative might be counted if there was a 'control transaction', which i think means takeover attempt, so there might be implications if he goes over 20% in total.
Im guessing that they are rights to buy or it would be misleading to total it up to 17.9%, but in theory in such a significant position he might be trying to protect himself from downside risk.
