                                            Registrant is relying upon Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act of 1933 (&#x201c;Securities
                                            Act&#x201d;) to calculate the registration fee. The maximum aggregate offering price is estimated
                                            solely for purposes of determining the registration fee based on the average of the high
                                            and low sales prices of the shares of Common Shares, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange
                                            on July 20, 2026, in accordance with Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act. The proposed maximum
                                            offering price per security will be determined from time to time by the Registrant in connection
                                            with the sale by the Registrant of the securities registered under this Registration Statement.&lt;/span&gt;</ffd:OfferingNote>

                                            under the Securities Act, with respect to which the Registrant paid filing fees of $5,234.04

                                            415(a)(6) under the Securities Act, this Registration Statement carries forward such unsold
                                            Securities, with respect to which $1,505.15 in filing fees have already been paid and will
