Disclosure Pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 (Section 219), which added Section 13(r)
to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Bank is required to disclose whether it or any of its affiliates have knowingly
engaged in certain specified activity related to Iran or with certain other persons that are the subject of U.S. sanctions laws. During the
fiscal year ending on October 31, 2025, the Bank identified three matters pursuant to Section 219.
The Bank identified a personal account opened in Canada with an initial deposit of CAD 3,000.00 for an individual designated by the
U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control pursuant to Executive Order 13224. The Bank froze the account
as well as filed a disclosure with the local competent authority pursuant to the Canadian Criminal Code, due to the identified
connection of the individual with a Canada-listed terrorist organization. No other transactions were conducted on the account.
The Bank identified a banking relationship with a separate individual designated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of
Foreign Assets Control pursuant to Executive Order 13224. The banking relationship consisted of a credit card account that had been
closed earlier in the fiscal year and an inactive personal account held in Canada. The Bank froze the personal account as well as filed
a disclosure with the local competent authority pursuant to the Canadian Criminal Code, due to the identified connection of the
individual with a Canada-listed terrorist organization. No other transactions were conducted via the account.
The Bank identified a banking relationship with an individual designated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign
Assets Control as subject to secondary sanctions pursuant to Executive Order 13902. This individual was designated due to acting as
a facilitator of financial activities on behalf of the Iranian government. The banking relationship consisted of two personal accounts
held in Canada, both with minimal activity. The Bank ended its relationship with this individual.
The Bank’s gross revenue and net profit attributable to these three relationships was de minimis and not material to the Bank’s
business. The Bank does not intend to engage in further activity with respect to these relationships.
