DTCC also acknowledges its important role in furthering efforts to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. In compliance with applicable provisions of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and global requirements, DTCC has established standards that include: Written Anti-Money Laundering (AML) policies and procedures; Observance of a Know Your Customer Program; Operating procedures reasonably designed to meet AML and Global Sanctions screening responsibilities; Investigating and appropriate reporting of suspicious activity; Training; and Independent testing Further details about DTCC’s compliance with these requirements are provided via the Wolfsberg Anti-Money Laundering Questionnaire: DTC Wolfsberg AML Questionnaire DTCC Wolfsberg AML Questionnaire DTCC STATEMENT ON THE CESSATION OF LIBOR The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has reaffirmed central assumption that firms cannot rely on LIBOR being published after the end of 2021. At that point, all firms should be prepared for LIBOR to be unusable, and market participants are strongly encouraged to transition to other risk-free rates. DTCC has been involved with the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank's Alternative Reference Rates Committee (ARRC) since the creation of a secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) and participates with the Operational Working Group and its sub-groups. SOFR is a benchmark interest rate for dollar-denominated derivatives and loans that is expected to replace London inter-bank offered rate (LIBOR). DTCC has reviewed the impact of the cessation of LIBOR on its businesses. While there is an impact to the transactions that are processed through DTCC businesses, there is no impact on DTCC operations. Below provides an overview of DTCC’s review: DTCC SIFMU Businesses: NSCC - Does not utilize LIBOR (or other IBOR) benchmark rates for the purposes of trade input or processing. FICC - Does not utilize LIBOR (or other IBOR) benchmark rates for the purposes of trade input or processing. DTC - Does not utilize LIBOR (or other IBOR) benchmark rates for the purposes of trade input or processing. For corporate action events, agents of securities issuers provide DTC with the numerical rate to be paid out to the holders of record. The derivation of the rate and its underlying benchmark, if applicable, are not functions provided by DTC. DTCC Solutions Businesses: DTCC has completed its internal review of potential impact, and has determined there are very limited areas, relationships and touchpoints. DTCC does not consume the LIBOR index, nor does it create calculations based on LIBOR. RDS: Trade repositories – DTCC operates Global Trade Repository (GTR) services through a number of licensed or registered trade repositories in various jurisdictions. Certain transactions required to be reported through trade repositories may contain the underlying reference rate (IBOR or RFR). It is the role of the reporting parties and their agents to determine if the submitted positions need to be amended for any IBOR transition and to take the necessary steps to amend or modify the reported positions. The GTR will not be doing any updating of data. There are several industry working groups that are discussing these issues with participants and regulators, and GTR is participating in these working groups as appropriate. Trade Information Warehouse (TIW): DTCC’s TIW provides post-trade processing for credit derivatives that have been electronically confirmed or cleared. None of these transactions reference IBORs and there is no implication to the TIW. Margin Transit Utility (MTU): Reference rates are not utilized by the MTU and there is no implication. ITP: Reference rates are utilized as information submitted for repo transactions to CTM and TradeSuite. The new RFRs have been added. There is no expectation that there will be any necessary amendments to legacy transactions. There is no impact to OASYS, GMEI or ALERT. COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR DTCC CLIENTS OFAC Certifications Certain Members and Participants that are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States under Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) regulations are required to provide DTCC with a “Confirmation of an OFAC Program” (“OFAC Confirmation”) every two years.

The OFAC Confirmation is intended to provide evidence that the U.S. Member or Participant (i) has the primary relationship with the clients for whom it is conducting activity through DTC, NSCC, or FICC; and (ii) has implemented a risk-based program reasonably designed to comply with applicable OFAC sanctions and regulations. The OFAC Compliance Officer, Chief Compliance Officer or other individual with responsibility for managing the OFAC compliance program for U.S. Members and Participants must renew their OFAC Confirmation on or prior to the expiration date. Members and Limited Members that fail to provide the electronic confirmation of an OFAC Program on or before the expiration date will be subject to a $5,000 fine. The Self-Service Customer Confirmation (OFAC Web Confirmation) web application (accessible via the DTCC Portal provided by Relationship Management) allows U.S. Members and Participants to renew their confirmations electronically rather than by submitting a hard copy confirmation. The Self-Service Customer Confirmation (also allows U.S. Members and Participants to provide their confirmation for one or more legal entities in one submission, view the history of submissions, and read and print a copy of the executed confirmation. Only the designated OFAC Compliance Officer or designee for the U.S. Member or Participant may renew the confirmation in the OFAC Confirmation web application. The Access Coordinator for the U.S. Member or Participant may register the OFAC Compliance Officer for the application. Members and Participants that do not have an Access Coordinator should contact their Relationship Manager.

DTCC also acknowledges its important role in furthering efforts to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. In support of these efforts, and in compliance with legal and regulatory obligations, DTCC has established a KYC Program. The primary objective of DTCC’s KYC Program is to provide a risk-based approach for the collection of sufficient information and documentation to know its customers and the customers of its subsidiaries, as required by U.S. and international AML regulations. The DTCC KYC Program includes the implementation of a Customer Identification Program (“CIP”), conducting Customer Due Diligence (“CDD”), and Enhanced Due Diligence (“EDD”), when necessary (collectively referred to as Know Your Customer or (“KYC”)). The collection of KYC information and documentation is intended to identify and mitigate Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) risk posed by entities applying to be customers and existing customers of DTCC to help facilitate the detection and identification of unusual or potentially suspicious activity. In order to accurately assess the AML risks posed by existing clients of DTCC, DTCC also conducts ongoing KYC reviews. Applicants to DTCC’s subsidiaries are requested to provide the necessary KYC information during the onboarding process. This information is periodically refreshed using a process that may involve reaching out to existing clients, via email, to confirm existing data or provide necessary updates. Existing Members and Participants are required to inform DTCC, in a timely manner, of business changes, which include changes to a Member or Participant organization’s structure, ownership, or control persons.
