      <additionalInformation>Please note that this 13F Holdings Report filer is affiliated with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and MetLife Investment Management, LLC (formerly known as MetLife Investment Advisors, LLC) who are also filing 13F Holdings Reports. Each entity is filing its own 13F Holdings Report because each entity has investment discretion over certain 13(f) securities reported. Logan Circle Partners, L.P. was another affiliate who had investment discretion over certain 13(f) securities as of June 30, 2019, however Logan Circle Partners L.P. was not itself required to file Form 13F. All three 13F Holdings Report filers and Logan Circle Partners, L.P. were under common control of their ultimate parent, MetLife, Inc., who has filed a 13F Combination Report including 13(f) securities positions that must be reported and for which Logan Circle Partners, L.P. exercised investment discretion as of June 30, 2019. Effective July 1, 2019, Logan Circle Partners, L.P. merged with and into MetLife Investment Management, LLC.</additionalInformation>
