1. Item 3 of the Schedule 13D shall hereby be amended and restated in full as follows:

 

  Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The Reporting Persons have acquired beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 4,213,208 shares of Common Stock for $49,629,841.31 using working capital from the Fund and the proceeds of margin loans under margin loan facilities maintained in the ordinary course of business by the Fund with a broker on customary terms and conditions. The purchase price of shares acquired pursuant to the assignment of Put Options (as defined in Item 6) is not reduced by the premium received by the Reporting Persons upon sale of the Put Options.

2. Paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D shall hereby be amended and restated in full as follows:

 

  Item 5.

The Fund directly holds, and thus has sole voting and dispositive power over, 4,213,208 shares of Common Stock. The GP, as sole general partner of the Fund, also has sole authority to vote (or direct the vote of), and to dispose (or direct the disposal) of, these shares on behalf of the Fund, and Mr. Lynch has shared authority to vote (or direct the vote of), and to dispose (or direct the disposal) of, these shares in his capacity as Chairman and Management Committee Director of the GP. Accordingly, each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns 4,213,208 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 12.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, and the Reporting Persons beneficially own, in the aggregate, 4,213,208 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 12.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(c) Except as otherwise described in this Schedule 13D, no Reporting Person, other than the Fund as set forth in the table below, effected any transaction in the Common Stock since July 26, 2024 (the date 60 days prior to the filing of this Schedule 13D):

Each Put Option gives the holder the right (but not the obligation) to sell to the Fund and require the Fund to purchase, on or before the expiration date, the number of underlying shares of Common Stock, at a purchase price per share equal to the strike price. If a Put Option is assigned (exercised) on or before its expiration date, the Fund must purchase the shares of Common Stock underlying such Put Option in exchange for the aggregate exercise price.

Except as otherwise described in this Schedule 13D, including the Exhibits attached hereto, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any third party, with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited to, those involving the transfer or voting of securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

4. Except as expressly modified hereby, all provisions of the Schedule 13D shall continue in full force and effect.
