As previously disclosed, pursuant to that certain Merger Agreement dated September 28, 2023, by and among the Issuer, Wonder Group, Inc.

On October 25, 2023, Reporting Person tendered its 1,267,590 shares of Class A Common Stock, constituting all of its beneficially owned Class A Common Stock, in the Offer. After the expiration of the Offer at one minute past 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on November 9, 2023, the Purchaser accepted all shares of Class A Common Stock that were validly tendered by Reporting Person and not validly withdrawn and Reporting Person became entitled to receive the Offer Price per share.

(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Person, no person other than the Reporting Person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Person previously reported in this Item 5.

 

(e) On November 13, 2023, following the consummation of the Offer, the Reporting Person ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the shares of Class A Common Stock.
