Amended Form 4 corrects a director’s transaction from purchase to sale: 1,000,000 shares sold at $1.12, with 13,389,960 shares remaining directly owned.

The filing amends a prior Form 4 to change the transaction code from "P" (purchase) to "S" (sale). It confirms that on 07/31/2025, a director sold 1,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at $1.12 per share. Following the transaction, the director reports 13,389,960 shares owned directly. The form is filed by one reporting person and specifies the correction in the remarks.

Why this matters: a corrected code from buy to sell materially changes the interpretation of insider activity. It clarifies the direction of the transaction and the post‑trade holdings baseline for tracking future changes. The amendment provides a cleaner audit trail without altering terms beyond the corrected classification.

Items to watch include any subsequent Form 4s that change the reported 13,389,960 directly owned shares, or further amendments. The transaction date remains 07/31/2025, with the amendment executed on 10/22/2025. Monitoring consistency across future filings will help ensure accurate insight into ongoing ownership trends.
