_______________
(a) Relates to the purchase of an insurance contract authorized by the trustee of one of our defined benefit plans. The insurance
contract will pay an income stream to the plan which is expected to match all future cash outflows in respect of certain
liabilities. The fair value of this insurance contract is presented as an asset of the plan and is measured based on the future
cash flows to be received under the contract discounted using the same discount rate used to measure the associated liabilities.
