During 2021, the Company identified material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting, as further described in its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which also describes the implementation of remediation plans in relation thereto. The Audit Committee and Board of Directors of the Company discussed the subject matter of such material weaknesses and associated remediation plans with KPMG and has authorized KPMG to respond fully to the inquiries of EY concerning such matters. There are no limitations placed on KPMG or EY concerning inquiry of any matter related to the Company’s financial reporting.
