In addition, two of our executive officers are members of URC’s board of directors. Furthermore, one of these executive officers also holds an executive position within URC. As a consequence, our ability to exercise significant influence over URC’s operating and financing policies continued to exist during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2026.
