Mr. Marmoreo will not receive any compensation from the Companies for his services as an Owner Director on the Boards, but will be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses. Any compensation received by Mr. Marmoreo for his services on the Boards is a function of his employment arrangement with OMERS and will be paid by OMERS.
