| Item 4. | Ownership | |
| (a) | Amount beneficially owned:
As of the date hereof, each of WA and WGP is deemed to be the beneficial owner of 37,873,696 shares of Common Stock, as a result of WA's clients' ownership of (i) 8,239,303 shares of Common Stock and (ii) 29,634,393 shares of Common Stock underlying 2,885,061 warrants, each exercisable to purchase 10.27167 shares of Common Stock at $0.00001 per share (the "Jones Act Warrants"), subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (defined below).
As of the date hereof, WMP may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 19,491,691 shares of Common Stock, as a result of its ownership of (i) 3,002,569 shares of Common Stock and (ii) 16,489,122 shares of Common Stock underlying the Jones Act Warrants, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
The Jones Act Warrants are subject to certain restrictions on ownership of the Issuer's capital stock by non-U.S. citizens, including a beneficial ownership limitation (the "Beneficial Ownership Limitation") that prevents any holder that cannot establish to the Issuer's reasonable satisfaction that it is a "U.S. Citizen" within the meaning of the U.S. citizenship and cabotage laws commonly referred to as the "Jones Act" (principally 46 U.S.C. Section 50501(a), (b), and (d) and 46 U.S.C. Chapters 121 and 551) from exercising the Jones Act Warrants to the extent that, after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon such exercise, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Based solely on the application of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to each of WA's clients individually, and based on 222,293,745 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 9, 2026, provided by the Issuer, the 2,885,061 Jones Act Warrants held by WA's clients' are currently exercisable for up to an aggregate 21,441,616 shares of Common Stock, including 1,605,301 Jones Act Warrants held by WMP that are currently exercisable for up to 8,296,345 shares of Common Stock. | |
| (b) | Percent of class:
As of the date hereof, each of WA and WGP is deemed to beneficially own approximately 15.0% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
This percent of class was calculated based on the sum of (i) 222,293,745 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 9, 2026, provided by the Issuer, and (ii) 29,634,393 shares of Common Stock that WA and WGP have the right to acquire upon exercise of the Jones Act Warrants, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, which amount has been added to the shares of Common Stock outstanding in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
As of the date hereof, WMP is deemed to beneficially own approximately 8.2% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
This percent of class was calculated based on the sum of (i) 222,293,745 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 9, 2026, provided by the Issuer, and (ii) 16,489,122 shares of Common Stock that WMP has the right to acquire upon exercise of the Jones Act Warrants, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, which amount has been added to the shares of Common Stock outstanding in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
