Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the Issuer identified in Item 1.

 

(a)Amount Beneficially Owned:

 

Reference to “beneficial ownership” of securities for purposes of this statement (this “Statement”) shall be understood to refer to beneficial ownership as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate 13,284,688 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the 2019 Partnership was the direct beneficial owner of 11,522,248 of the shares of Common Stock described in the preceding paragraph. 2019 GP is the general partner of the 2019 Partnership, and 2019 LLC is the general partner of 2019 GP. As such, 2019 GP and 2019 LLC may each be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the securities that are directly beneficially owned by the 2019 Partnership.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the 2021 Partnership was the direct beneficial owner of 1,762,440 shares of Common Stock described in the second paragraph of this Item 4(a) 2021 GP is the general partner of the 2021 Partnership, and 2021 LLC is the general partner of 2021 GP.

Notwithstanding, the filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that: (i) the 2019 Partnership, 2019 GP and 2019 LLC (collectively, the “2019 Affiliates”), on the one hand, or (ii) the 2021 Partnership, 2021 GP and 2021 LLC (collectively, the “2021 Affiliates”), on the other hand, is or has been, for purposes of Sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the direct or indirect beneficial owner of any of the Issuer’s securities reported herein as beneficially owned by the other.
