APPROXIMATELY US$43,000, TOGETHER WITH A SUSPENDED SENTENCE OF FOUR YEARS. THE DIRECTORS OF THE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES, INCLUDING MR.
BLUMENTHAL, WERE ALSO DETERMINED TO BE JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY LIABLE AS A CIVIL MATTER FOR THE BALANCE OF THE INCOME TAXES AND RELATED
INTEREST AND PENALTIES DETERMINED TO BE DUE IN RESPECT OF THE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES. THE BAUPOST PARTNERSHIPS THAT OWNED THESE INVESTMENTS
PAID THEIR PORTION OF THE TAXES, INTEREST AND PENALTIES IN 2017; THE BALANCE WAS SUBSEQUENTLY SATISFIED.
5.
Provide a brief summary of circumstances leading to the charge(s) as well as the disposition. Include the relevant dates when the conduct which was the subject

BETWEEN 2003 AND 2005, PRIVATE FUNDS MANAGED BY BAUPOST MADE THREE FRENCH REAL PROPERTY INVESTMENTS ALONGSIDE THIRD PARTIES THROUGH
LUXEMBOURG COMPANIES (THE "LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES"). THOMAS BLUMENTHAL, A PARTNER, WAS APPOINTED AS A DIRECTOR OF THE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES.
SUBSEQUENT TO THE 2006 SALE OF THESE INVESTMENTS, THE FRENCH TAX ADMINISTRATION ("FTA") OPENED TAX AUDITS OF THE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES. THE FTA
ALLEGED THAT THE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES WERE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR BENEFICIAL TAX TREATMENT UNDER THE FRANCE-LUXEMBOURG TAX TREATY, AND THUS WERE
REQUIRED TO PAY INCOME TAX IN FRANCE. ONE OF THE THREE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES SUCCESSFULLY PROVED IN FRENCH COURT THAT NO TAX WAS DUE. THE
REMAINING TWO LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES APPEALED THE FTA'S ASSESSMENT TO THE FRENCH SUPREME TAX COURT. ON MARCH 31, 2017, THE FRENCH SUPREME TAX
COURT RULED AGAINST THESE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES. IN 2011, THE FTA REFERRED FOR INVESTIGATION POTENTIAL CHARGES AGAINST ALL OF THE DIRECTORS OF
THE TWO REMAINING LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES, INCLUDING MR. BLUMENTHAL, ALLEGING THAT THESE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES AND THEIR DIRECTORS HAD ENGAGED
IN TAX FRAUD AS A RESULT OF THE FAILURE BY THESE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES TO PAY INCOME TAX IN FRANCE. ON JANUARY 11, 2017, MR. BLUMENTHAL WAS
NOTIFIED THAT A MAGISTRATE JUDGE HAD CHARGED THE DIRECTORS OF THESE TWO LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES, INCLUDING MR. BLUMENTHAL, WITH COMMITTING
CRIMINAL TAX FRAUD. FOLLOWING A TRIAL, THE COURT ON JUNE 20, 2018 CONVICTED THE DIRECTORS OF THE TWO LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES, INCLUDING MR.
BLUMENTHAL, OF CRIMINAL TAX FRAUD AND SENTENCED EACH DIRECTOR TO A FINE AND A SUSPENDED SENTENCE. AS TO MR. BLUMENTHAL, THE ORDER OF
CONVICTION IMPOSED A FINE OF APPROXIMATELY US$43,000, TOGETHER WITH A SUSPENDED SENTENCE OF FOUR YEARS. THE DIRECTORS OF THE LUXEMBOURG
ENTITIES, INCLUDING MR. BLUMENTHAL, WERE ALSO DETERMINED TO BE JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY LIABLE AS A CIVIL MATTER FOR THE BALANCE OF THE INCOME
TAXES AND RELATED INTEREST AND PENALTIES DETERMINED TO BE DUE IN RESPECT OF THE LUXEMBOURG ENTITIES. THE BAUPOST PARTNERSHIPS THAT OWNED
THESE INVESTMENTS PAID THEIR PORTION OF THE TAXES, INTEREST AND PENALTIES IN 2017; THE BALANCE WAS SUBSEQUENTLY SATISFIED. MR. BLUMENTHAL
ACTED IN GOOD FAITH FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BAUPOST PARTNERSHIPS, HAVING FOLLOWED ADVICE FROM PROMINENT INTERNATIONAL TAX ADVISORS IN
CONNECTION WITH THESE INVESTMENTS, AND MR. BLUMENTHAL APPEALED THE JUDGMENT IN 2018. WHILE BAUPOST HAS ALWAYS STRONGLY DISAGREED WITH
THIS VERDICT AND VIEWS THE CONVICTION AS UNWARRANTED, MR. BLUMENTHAL WITHDREW THE APPEAL IN JUNE 2021 WITH THE FULL SUPPORT OF BAUPOST.
THE BAUPOST PARTNERSHIPS DID NOT BEAR ANY PORTION OF THE APPELLATE DEFENSE COSTS OR THE ADDITIONAL TAX OBLIGATION AND WILL NOT BEAR ANY
PORTION OF THE FINE. THE VERDICT DOES NOT IMPACT MR. BLUMENTHAL'S CONTINUING ROLE AS A PARTNER AT BAUPOST.
