AMENDMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT
The section “Required Vote” included under the heading of Proposal 3 for TPZ Only: A Shareholder Proposal which was originally set forth on page 23 of the Proxy Statement, is amended to read in its
entirety as follows:
To be approved, the Shareholder Proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast in person at the annual meeting or represented by proxy so long as a quorum
is present. Each TPZ common share is entitled to one vote on this proposal. For the purposes of the vote on this proposal, abstentions and broker non-votes (which occur when a broker has not received directions from customers and does not have
discretionary authority to vote the customers’ shares), will not be counted as shares voted and will have no effect on the result of the vote.
