¹Forward-Looking Statements

The disclosures included in this report are being provided to the public in an effort to provide transparency into our environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives. Our approaches to the disclosures included in this report are different from those included in mandatory regulatory reporting, including under SEC regulations. Certain statements in this report may contain “forward-looking statements.” These statements are typically accompanied by the words “aim,” “hope,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “aspire” or similar words. All such statements are intended to enjoy the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements speak only as of the date they are originally made and are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, changes in circumstances, and assumptions that are difficult to predict and are often beyond our control. These statements are not guarantees of future results, occurrences, or performance. Actual results and financial outcomes may differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any of these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, among others, global socio-demographic and economic trends, climate-related conditions and weather events, legislative and regulatory changes, and other unforeseen events or conditions. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements can be found in this report, in our filings that we make with the SEC from time to time, and disclosures available on our corporate website. We do not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that arise after the date the forward-looking statements were made. Materiality, as used in this report, and our materiality review process, is different than the definition used in the context of filings with the SEC. Issues deemed material for purposes of this report and for purposes of determining our ESG strategies may not be considered material for SEC reporting purposes.
