For the year ended December 31, 2024, labor includes an expense of US$138.4 million related to profit sharing (US$130.9 million and US$118.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 respectively). In October 2024, the Company reached new four - year collective labor agreement (CLA) with one of its two unions and recorded nonrecurring charges of US$30.6 million in third quarter 2024 associated with the new CLA. The agreement follows the successful completion of a new CLA with the second union in April 2024 for which the Company recorded nonrecurring charges of US$66.5 million.

These funds are used by these agencies as part of their operating budgets for investment supervision in energy and mining, as well as the environment. The calculation for the OSINERGMIN royalty is 0.14% of invoiced sales and the calculation for the OEFA royalty is 0.10% of invoiced sales for the year 2024, 2023 and 2022.

(c)

On July 9, 2011, Law No. 29741 was published, through which the contribution to the Mining, Metallurgical and Steelworks Supplementary Retirement Fund was created. These resources constitute a social security retirement fund for mining, metallurgical and steelworkers. The Mining Supplementary Retirement Fund is applicable to the Company and is calculated based on 0.5% of the annual taxable profit.
