This filing confirms the final terms and closing of a significant secondary offering by major shareholders, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option, bringing the total to 23 million shares sold for $483 million. While the company received no proceeds, the offering was priced at a slight premium to the current market price, and the full exercise of the option indicates strong demand. Additionally, a separate conversion of over 10 million LLC units into Class A common stock by AES Grid Stability further increases the public float. Combined, these events represent a substantial increase in the tradable shares, impacting ownership structure and potentially creating an overhang, despite the positive pricing signals.
