This preliminary proxy statement details proposals for the upcoming annual meeting, with the most significant being a vote on the "Stock Issuance Proposal." This proposal seeks shareholder approval for the conversion of 350,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, issued on February 23, 2026, into Class A common stock. The preferred stock was issued for an aggregate purchase price of $350 million. If approved, these shares would initially be convertible into 16,493,688 shares of Class A common stock at a conversion price of $21.39 per share. This represents a potential dilution of approximately 26% of the company's current common stock voting power, which the company explicitly states would result in "significant dilution" and a "smaller percentage interest in the voting power, liquidation value, and aggregate book value" for existing stockholders. Shareholder approval is required by NYSE rules to allow conversion beyond a 19.9% cap. The outcome of this vote is critical for the full implementation of the terms of this substantial financing.
