 (Sidley) who is the lead external counsel working with the CWG-Stewardship. Since the CWG-Stewardship’s last meeting on 11 April, Sharon has provided a revised draft of the CWG-Stewardship related Bylaws, two requests for further clarification, and responses
 to an individual’s set of comments. The CWG-Stewardship acknowledges receipt of these materials, and appreciates the quick turnaround and responsiveness that Sharon and the legal teams have been able to provide. To be clear, in the event that there is a conflict
 between any of the materials provided this week and this final response document (attached), this final document supersedes those materials.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
