On December 19, 2024, the Issuer agreed to purchase from Silver Point, an aggregate of 79,410 shares of Common Stock at a price of $162.81 per share. The Reporting Persons may sell additional shares of Common Stock from time-to-time depending on market conditions pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or pursuant to the Issuer's registration statement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons. The Reporting Persons do not have any current plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any transaction, event or action enumerated in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, except as otherwise described herein. Each of the Reporting Persons reserves the right, in light of its ongoing evaluation of the Issuer's financial condition, business, operations and prospects, the market price of the Common Stock, commodity prices, conditions in the securities market generally, general economic and industry conditions, its business objectives and other relevant factors, to change its plans and intentions at any time, as it deems appropriate.

Percentage of Class

The responses of the Reporting Persons to rows (7) through (13) of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. The Reporting Persons currently beneficially own 4,806,491 shares, consisting of (a) 3,110,562 shares plus (b) 1,695,929 shares issuable upon the exercise of 23,743 shares of Preferred Stock. As reported in the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 6, 2024, as of October 28, 2024, there were 17,727,799 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, and as of September 30, 2024, there were 43,745 shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding (which shares of Preferred Stock vote together on an as-converted basis with the Common Stock as a single class). Additionally, as reported in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 26, 2024, the Issuer repurchased 150,000 shares of Common Stock. Percent ownership calculations in this Schedule 13D are calculated by using (a) 17,727,799 shares of Common Stock minus (b) 150,000 shares of Common Stock repurchased by the Issuer plus (c) 1,695,929 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the 23,743 shares of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. Assuming conversion of all outstanding shares of the Issuer's Preferred Stock, the Reporting Persons beneficially own approximately 23.2% of the outstanding voting securities of the Issuer (including in the denominator all 3,100,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock outstanding).
