Each of the entities named in this Item 4 (collectively, the “AGI Advisers”) is an investment adviser registered under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and a directly or indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI US Holdings.
The securities reported in this Schedule 13G are held by investment advisory clients or discretionary accounts of which an AGI Adviser is the investment adviser. When an investment management contract (including a sub-advisory agreement) delegates to an AGI Adviser investment discretion or voting power over the securities held in the investment advisory accounts that are subject to that agreement, AGI US Holdings treats the AGI Adviser as having sole investment discretion or voting authority, as the case may be, unless the agreement specifies otherwise. Accordingly, each AGI Adviser reports on Schedule 13G that it has sole investment discretion and voting authority over the securities covered by any such investment management agreement. As a result, each AGI Adviser may be deemed to beneficially own the securities held by its clients or accounts within the meaning of rule 13d-3 under the Act. Because AGI US Holdings is the parent holding company of the AGI Advisers that are its subsidiaries, it may be deemed to beneficially own the securities held by those AGI Advisers’ clients or accounts.
In accordance with SEC Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), this Schedule 13G reports the securities beneficially owned, or deemed to be beneficially owned, by certain subsidiaries and affiliates of AGI US Holdings. It does not include securities, if any, beneficially owned by affiliates of AGI US Holdings whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of AGI US Holdings and the AGI Advisers in accordance with that release.
AGI US Holdings and the AGI Advisers believe that they do not constitute a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Act and that they are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the beneficial ownership of the securities reported in this Schedule 13G held by any of them or by any persons or entities for whom or for which any AGI Adviser provides investment management services. Each of AGI US Holdings and the AGI Advisers also disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of that filer’s pecuniary interest therein.
