Item 5. 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. As part of its intellectual property (“IP”) protection efforts, FedEx has obtained and maintains patents and trademarks in Iran. Periodically, FedEx pays renewal fees, through IP service providers located in Lebanon, to the Iran Intellectual Property Office (“IIPO”) for these patents and trademarks and has sought to prosecute and defend such trademarks. On September 15, 2021, OFAC granted FedEx a specific license to make payments to IIPO at its account in Bank Melli, which was designated on November 5, 2018 by OFAC under its counterterrorism authority pursuant to Executive Order 13224. As authorized by OFAC’s specific license, in the quarter ended August 31, 2022, FedEx paid $92 to IIPO as part of its intellectual property protection efforts in Iran. FedEx plans to continue these activities, as authorized under the specific license.
