Compliance with US Executive Order 13959


In November 2020 the United States government issued Executive Order 13959, which prohibits
U.S. persons from engaging in any transaction in publicly traded securities in Communist
Chinese military companies (as well as certain related securities) and which will first become
effective on 11 January 2021. We are taking steps as required to comply with the order to the best
of our knowledge and belief in consultation with Legal counsel and industry groups. We continue
to monitor this matter to assess any potential impact or actions needed, as facts and circumstances
continue to evolve.
