No payments were made by or on behalf of the Reporting Persons in connection with the Letter Agreement (as defined below) or the Asunción Shares (as defined in Item 5).

On December 13, 2023, GPS entered into a Subscription Agreement with the Issuer in connection with a private placement of Class A Shares (the “December 2023 Subscription Agreement”) in which the Issuer sold an aggregate of 10,360,657 Class A Shares to investors including GPS at a price of $3.05 per share.

Item 4.         Purpose of Transaction.

The Class A Shares were acquired by the Reporting Persons for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons will evaluate its investment in the Issuer from time to time and may at any time, based on such evaluation, market conditions and other circumstances, increase or decrease its security holdings in the Issuer or may change its investment strategy as regards to the Issuer. The Reporting Persons holding Class A Shares acquired those securities as an investment in the regular course of its business. The Reporting Persons intend to monitor and evaluate their investment on an ongoing basis and expect regularly to review and consider alternative ways of maximizing their return on such investment, depending on prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities, liquidity requirements or other investment considerations the Reporting Persons deem relevant. The Reporting Persons may engage in discussions with management, the Issuer’s board of directors, other shareholders of the Issuer and other relevant parties concerning the business, operations, board composition, management, strategy and future plans of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons may exchange information with any such persons pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements. The Reporting Persons may from time to time in the future seek to acquire, alone or in conjunction with others, additional Class A Shares through open market purchases, block trades, privately negotiated transaction, tender offer, merger, reorganization or otherwise. The Reporting Persons may also dispose of all or a portion of the Issuer’s securities, in open market or privately negotiated transactions, and/or enter into derivative transactions with institutional counterparties with respect to the Class A Shares, in each case, subject to limitations under applicable law and any other required approvals.

The Reporting Persons do not have any present plan or proposal that would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein.

Item 5.         Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The information contained in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference herein.

(a), (b) The responses of the Reporting Persons with respect to Rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages of the Reporting Persons to this Schedule 13D are incorporated by reference herein.

By virtue of the Letter Agreement (as defined in Item 3) and the obligations and rights thereunder, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be in a “group” with Kariega and Mr. Asunción (as defined in Item 3) for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). This filing shall not be deemed an admission that such persons constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim such group membership.

Based on the information presented in Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions in the Issuer’s Form 20-F filed on March 21, 2024 and following the August 5, 2024 private placement, Mr. Asunción had sole voting and investment control over 1,870,059 Class A Shares (the “Asunción Shares”), and Kariega and Mr. Asunción shared voting and investment control over an additional 18,618,950 Class B ordinary shares (the “Class B Shares”), each having ten votes per share. The number of shares that each Reporting Person beneficially owns does not take into account the Class B Shares. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by GPS or Generac that it is the beneficial owner of the Asuncion Shares referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act. The aggregate percentage of beneficial ownership of each of GPS and Generac is approximately 17.8% of the issued and outstanding Class A Shares of the Issuer. The percentage of the Class A Shares beneficially owned is based on 188,423,218 Class A Shares outstanding as of March 1, 2024 as reported in the Issuer’s Form 20-F filed on March 21, 2024, as adjusted for the 36,334,277 Class A Shares issued in the Issuer’s private placement that closed August 5, 2024.

To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons listed on Schedule A have any beneficial ownership of any Class A Shares.

(c) Except for the transactions described in response to Item 4 above, which information is hereby incorporated by reference, none of the Reporting Persons, nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the persons listed on Schedule A, have effected any transactions that may be deemed to be a transaction in the Class A Shares during the past 60 days.

(d) No other person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, Class A Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as provided for herein.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6.         Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

The information contained in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference herein.

On August 5, 2024, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement in which the Reporting Persons agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to the securities of the Issuer to the extent as required by applicable law. A copy of this agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Other than as described above, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
