“---------------------------------------------------------------------- Pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.501(c)(9)-2(c)(1) and (c)(3), BNY Mellon, as independent trustee of the trust, controls the organization because the plan that is funded in part by the organization constitutes an employee welfare benefit plan, as defined in section 3(1) of ERISA. Additionally, the instructions for Part VI Line 1(a) indicate that the trustee of a trust is the organization's "governing body." The questions in Part VI have been answered in a manner consistent with BNY Mellon, as an independent and institutional trustee, being the "governing body" of the organization. However, it should be noted that, pursuant to the terms of the trust agreement, BNY Mellon is a directed trustee and so has limited duties and responsibilities with respect to discretionary decision-making under the organization and the employee benefit welfare plan that is funded by the organization. As permitted under Section 403(a) of ERISA and as set out in the trust agreement, BNY Mellon also acts at the direction of the named fiduciary for the plans and investment managers designated by the named fiduciary.”
