Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

 

The Company filed Amendment No. 4 to its Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10, 2024 announcing the final results of the Offer. On June 11, 2024, the Company accepted for purchase, at a price of $53.00 per share, 56,603,773 shares of Common Stock that were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Offer. Because the Offer was oversubscribed, the number of shares accepted for purchase by the Company from each tendering stockholder was prorated, at a proration factor of approximately 47.18%. The shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase by the Company included (i) 78,679 shares of Common Stock tendered by Mr. Sacks; (ii) 42,144 shares of Common Stock tendered by Mr. Schlosberg; (iii) 85,247 shares of Common Stock tendered by Hilrod Holdings XV; (iv) 207,022 shares of Common Stock tendered by Hilrod Holdings XVIII; and (v) 38,982 shares of Common Stock tendered by Hilrod Holdings XXIII.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 5 (a) through (c) is hereby amended by deleting Item 5 (a) through (c) in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following:

As of June 11, 2024, the aggregate number and percentage of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is 80,145,485 shares, or 8.1% of the outstanding Common Stock.  Percentages calculated in this Amendment No. 31 with respect to the Reporting Persons as a group are based upon 991,942,343 shares of Common Stock, which is the sum of the Aggregate Outstanding Shares plus the 6,508,988 aggregate shares of Common Stock that could be acquired within 60 days of June 11, 2024 by the Reporting Persons upon the exercise of options to purchase Common Stock and upon vesting of RSUs.
