The Offering closed on July 22, 2025. In accordance with the terms of the Cooperation Agreement, Taheer Datoo tendered his resignation from the Issuer's Board of Directors, effective July 22, 2025, in light of the Reporting Persons' ceasing to own the Minimum Ownership Amount (as defined in the Cooperation Agreement) as a result of their positions decreasing following the Offering.
