Item 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
Disclosure Pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 and Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act. We have comprehensive export controls and economic sanctions programs designed to ensure compliance with United States and other applicable export control and sanctions laws, rules and regulations. On April 15, 2021, the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) designated Positive Technologies, a Russian company, on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (“SDN List”) pursuant to Executive Order 13382. We timely identified this company as a customer of TNT Express Worldwide (CIS) Limited Liability Company, a subsidiary of FedEx Express in Russia, and initiated termination of our customer relationship with Positive Technologies in accordance with our internal policies and procedures. While this termination was pending, two shipments of printed documents from Positive Technologies were picked up on April 21 and 23, 2021, respectively, and delivered to Kazakhstan by TNT Express Worldwide (CIS) Limited Liability Company. Additionally, one shipment of printed documents from Positive Technologies was picked up on April 14, 2021 and returned to the sender for operational reasons on April 22, 2021. While these activities were in compliance with applicable laws, including the sanctions regulations administered by OFAC, they require disclosure pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 and Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These shipments resulted in aggregate revenue of 7,354 Rubles (approximately €80 or $100), and aggregate profit of 2,989 Rubles (approximately €30 or $40). TNT Express Worldwide (CIS) Limited Liability Company has completed its wind down of the customer relationship and will not be accepting future shipments to or from Positive Technologies.
