TABLE OF CONTENTS Internet and telephone votes must be submitted no later than 11:59 pm Eastern Daylight Time on May 20, 2025. The Chair of the Annual Meeting may waive the proxy cut-off without notice. If the proxy is not dated, it will be deemed to be submitted seven calendar days after the date on which it was mailed to you. If you are a beneficial owner , which means that you owned your Common Shares indirectly (that is, you held your shares in “street name” in a brokerage account or by another nominee holder) on the Record Date, a Notice or voting instruction card has been provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee describing how to vote your Common Shares. If you received a voting instruction card, you can vote by completing and returning the voting instruction card. You may also be able to vote by proxy over the Internet, by telephone, by mail (if you properly request a paper copy of these proxy materials) or at the Annual Meeting, depending upon the voting instruction card.
