Good morning, members of the Board, Madam Treasurer, Mr. Comptroller. We’re doing another virtual meeting. It’s almost a year we’ve been doing this virtually, so I think we’re pretty used to this. I hope the public is used to it at this point. I hope everyone had a healthy and happy Thanksgiving. I know it was very different this year than most years, not having large family gatherings and friends and others over. But you know, we want to make sure that we all stay safe during this COVID-19 and I’ll say crisis that we have. And you know, unfortunately we’re seeing here in Maryland, as well as throughout the country, a rise in of the number of infections and even hospitalizations. But I will say that I, you know, we’re grateful to our fellow Marylanders who are taking the public health protocol seriously. At the same time, we do understand all of us have COVID fatigue. We all want to get back to normal. But we’re not going to be able to do that if we don’t follow the, what I like to say, the three Ws: wear your mask, wash your hands, and watch your distance. And so, you know, we want to make sure that we’re able to, you know, recover from this. That includes, and I know the Comptroller has mentioned this several times, making sure that our businesses can HUNT REPORTING COMPANY Court Reporting and Litigation Support Serving Maryland, Washington, and Virginia 410-766-HUNT (4868) 1-800-950-DEPO (3376) 12/2/20 Board of Public Works 7 continue to operate, that people can continue to work. But we have to get back to normal. And so, you know, we continue at the State level, of course, to work to address the surge in cases, the new surge in cases and hospitalizations. The Governor announced yesterday a number of measures, particularly as it relates to hospitalizations, as well as calling on, you know, additional aid from healthcare workers. We’ve asked the medical schools to allow for credit as well as the schools that are teaching healthcare individuals, be it nursing or in public health, to allow for them to receive credit for coming in and working and volunteering in the hospitals and other public health agencies. We have put in some protocols with the hospitals and with Hospital Association that they will start reducing elective procedures when we reach a certain threshold in terms of the number of patients that are in the hospital. Not just COVID patients, but patients overall, because the concern is for not just the beds but the potential that individuals may need ICU ventilators and things of that nature. Similar to where we were back in the spring, but in this case in working with the hospitals we are not calling for them to stop elective procedures right now but to be very conscious. And once we hit a certain, if we hit a certain threshold, that then they would actually stop those procedures so that we could free up the beds and the resources for those who might be severely ill. HUNT REPORTING COMPANY Court Reporting and Litigation Support Serving Maryland, Washington, and Virginia 410-766-HUNT (4868) 1-800-950-DEPO (3376) 12/2/20 Board of Public Works 8 So we still are calling on everyone in the community to work hard to protect themselves and their loved ones and our community in general. And there is good news on the horizon. We expect that we will be receiving vaccines in the very near future. I did just see across the wires that the UK has approved the Pfizer vaccine. We’re waiting for approval here, but we’re expecting that probably as early as mid-December that we could start seeing the first shipments coming in. Now the two things that I want to stress with that is the priority is going to be our frontline healthcare workers. So everyone is not going to get a vaccine or the ability to get a vaccine right away. We’re only going to get a small amount. And so it’s going to have to go to the healthcare workers. And then after that, it will go into those who are in the nursing homes and assisted care facilities. And it’s likely that it would be the staff that will be the first ones, because the staff are the ones who are, they are the ones that we saw last spring that were bringing it in unintentionally because we had shut down visitations. So we have to address that issue first before we even get to the individual residents. So that’s the one thing. And then the other part with the vaccines is everyone needs to get it when it’s available. You know, I know that there are people out there that are, you know, and this has started before COVID, that there are people who don’t like vaccines. They just, they think they are all, whatever they think it is. We have to get past that. We need people to take the vaccines. You know? And those that even say HUNT REPORTING COMPANY Court Reporting and Litigation Support Serving Maryland, Washington, and Virginia 410-766-HUNT (4868) 1-800-950-DEPO (3376) 12/2/20 Board of Public Works 9 that I don’t want to be the first one.

    1 Verizon Political Activity January – December 2017 A Message from Craig Silliman Verizon is affected by a wide variety of government policies -- from telecommunications regulation to taxation to health care and more -- that have an enormous impact on the business climate in which we operate. We owe it to our shareowners, employees and customers to advocate public policies that will enable us to compete fairly and freely in the marketplace. Political contributions are one way we support the democratic electoral process and participate in the policy dialogue. Our employees have established political action committees at the federal level and in 18 states. These political action committees (PACs) allow employees to pool their resources to support candidates for office who generally support the public policies our employees advocate. This report lists all PAC contributions, corporate political contributions, support for ballot initiatives and independent expenditures made by Verizon and its affiliates during 2017. The contribution process is overseen by the Corporate Governance and Policy Committee of our Board of Directors, which receives a comprehensive report and briefing on these activities at least annually. We intend to update this voluntary disclosure twice a year and publish it on our corporate website. We believe this transparency with respect to our political spending is in keeping with our commitment to good corporate governance and a further sign of our responsiveness to the interests of our shareowners. Craig L. Silliman Executive Vice President, Public Policy and General Counsel 2 Verizon Political Activity January – December 2017 Political Contributions Policy: Our Voice in the Democratic Process What are the Verizon Political Action Committees? including the setting of monetary contribution limitations and The Verizon Political Action Committees (PACs) exist to help the establishment of periodic reporting requirements.
