On April 1, 2025, pursuant to the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 9, 2024, by and among the Registrant, Novolex Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Novolex”), and Alpha Lion Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Novolex (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged (the “Merger”) with and into the Registrant, with the Registrant surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Novolex.

As a result of the consummation of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes and withdraws from registration all securities of the Registrant registered pursuant to the Registration Statement that remain unsold or otherwise unissued as of the date hereof.
