The Registration Statement was initially declared effective on September 8, 2021 and pertains to the registration of up to an aggregate of 17,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “common stock”), which consists of (i) up to 11,500,000 shares of common stock that were issuable upon the exercise of 11,500,000 warrants”) originally issued in the initial public offering of Capitol Investment Corp. V (“Capitol”) by the holders thereof and (ii) up to 5,833,333 shares of common stock that were issuable upon the exercise of 5,833,333 warrants originally issued in a private placement in connection with the initial public offering of Capitol (the “private placement warrants”). The Registration Statement also relates to the resale from time to time by the selling holders named in the prospectus that forms a part of the Registration Statement of (a) up to 249,293,231 shares of common stock and (b) up to 5,833,333 private placement warrants.

On September 27, 2024, RE Closing Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of RE Closing Buyer Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving such Merger as the surviving corporation. The Merger was pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) entered into on March 28, 2024, by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub.

As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company has terminated all offerings of its common stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. Accordingly, pursuant to the undertaking contained in the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement to deregister all the shares of the Company’s common stock registered under the Registration Statement, which remained unsold as of the date hereof. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of all such shares of common stock and the Registrant hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
