The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Trust Agreement Amendment No. 3, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Both proposals are described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 23, 2024. A summary of the voting results at the Shareholder Meeting is set forth below.
