• Amended Insider Sale Disclosure

  Jonathan B. Fairbanks, a Director and 10% Owner, along with several GEC entities, amended a previous Form 4 to fully disclose their collective $24.7 million open market sale of Class A Common Stock on March 26, 2026.

• Formation of 13D Group

  The amendment reveals that the reporting persons have formed a "group" under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, potentially beneficially owning over 50% of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock, and may be deemed directors by deputization.

• Option Exercise and Sale

  The transactions included the exercise of options for 1,143,226 shares, immediately followed by the open market sale of 1,170,000 shares at an average price of $21.18 per share.

This amended Form 4 provides crucial clarity regarding a significant insider transaction previously reported by Jonathan B. Fairbanks. By adding multiple GEC entities as co-reporting persons, the filing highlights a collective disposition of shares by a group that includes a Director and substantial 10% owners. The disclosure of a Section 13(d) group, potentially controlling over 50% of the Class A Common Stock and having rights to designate board members, is a material governance update. This indicates a coordinated strategy among these large shareholders, which could influence future corporate decisions and ownership structure, especially following the company's recent loss of "controlled company" status. The substantial sale, even if partially offset by option exercises, represents a significant reduction in direct and indirect holdings by this influential group.
