In July 2024, the Plan Administrator of the Company's Canadian defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan") entered into a transaction to insure a portion of its Canadian pension liabilities through the purchase of a bulk annuity insurance contract for the benefit of the Plan participants. Subsequent to the purchase of the bulk annuity contract, each of the Plan participants will be issued an individual annuity contract. The issuer of the individual annuity insurance contracts will be solely responsible for paying each participant's benefits in full. An irrevocable transfer of approximately $125 of the Plan's obligations occurred in July 2024. The Plan remains in an overfunded position after the transaction and the Company expects to record a settlement charge of approximately $60 in the third quarter of 2024.
