| ITEM1. | APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES UPON EXERCISE OF THE PRE-FUNDED
WARRANTS UNDER NASDAQ LISTING RULE 5635(d) |
The Shareholder Approval was
obtained solely to satisfy Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) with respect to the potential issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise
of the pre-funded warrants, each dated June 30, 2026 (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”). The Private Placement closed on July
2, 2026, and the Shareholder Approval does not approve the financing itself.
Background
On June 30, 2026, we entered
into a Securities Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement with certain institutional and existing investors (the “Purchasers”).
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, we sold in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) (i) 4,666,667
shares of Class A Common Stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share and (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,243,807
shares of Class A Common Stock. The purchase price for each Pre-Funded Warrant was $2.9999, and the remaining exercise price is $0.0001
per share. The Private Placement generated gross proceeds of approximately $23.7 million, before placement-agent fees and other offering
expenses.
We intend to use the net proceeds
from the Private Placement for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Private Placement was conducted pursuant to an
exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Under the Registration Rights Agreement entered into with the
Purchasers, the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the shares issued in the Private Placement and
the shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.
The Pre-Funded Warrants do
not expire until exercised in full. They may be exercised for cash or, when permitted by their terms, on a cashless basis. The number
of shares issuable and the exercise price are subject to customary adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combinations and similar
events. The Pre-Funded Warrants also contain beneficial-ownership limitations that generally prevent a holder from exercising a warrant
to the extent the exercise would cause the holder and its attribution parties to exceed the applicable ownership limitation.
This summary does not purport
to describe all terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Registration rights Agreement or the Pre-Funded Warrants. Copies of those
documents have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and should be reviewed for a complete
description of their terms.
Why Shareholder Approval Is Required
The Class A Common Stock is
listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, and the Company is therefore subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) generally
requires shareholder approval before an issuer may issue common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock,
in a non-public offering if the issuance equals or exceeds 20% of the common stock or voting power outstanding before the issuance and
the issuance price is less than the “Minimum Price” prescribed by Nasdaq.
The Securities Purchase Agreement
and the Pre-Funded Warrants require us to obtain the Shareholder Approval before the Pre-Funded Warrants become exercisable. We therefore
sought and obtained approval of the potential issuance of all 3,243,807 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants
in order to satisfy the applicable requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) and the transaction documents.
Recommendation and Reasons for Approval
The Board of Directors of
the Company (the “Board”) determined that the Shareholder Approval was advisable and in the best interests of the Company
and its shareholders. In reaching that determination, the Board considered, among other matters, the Company’s working-capital and capital
needs, the anticipated net proceeds and other benefits of the Private Placement, the expected dilution to existing shareholders, the terms
of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Pre-Funded Warrants, and compliance with the Nasdaq Listing
Rules. The Board recommended that shareholders approve the issuance of the shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants.
Effect of Shareholder Approval
Upon effectiveness of the
Shareholder Approval under Rule 14c-2, the Pre-Funded Warrants may be exercised in accordance with their terms. If all Pre-Funded Warrants
are exercised, we will issue up to 3,243,807 additional shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
The issuance of those shares will increase the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and dilute the percentage ownership
and voting power of existing shareholders. Holders may resell shares received upon exercise, subject to applicable securities laws and
the availability of an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration, and such resales could adversely affect the
market price of the Class A Common Stock.
The Shareholder Approval does
not require the holders to exercise the Pre-Funded Warrants, and the timing and extent of any exercises cannot be predicted. Other than
the nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per share, the purchase price for the shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants was substantially
pre-funded at closing.
Interests of Certain Persons
No director or executive officer
of the Company has a substantial interest, directly or indirectly, in the Shareholder Approval that differs from the interests of shareholders
generally, except to the extent of his or her ownership of the Company’s securities.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF
CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth
information regarding beneficial ownership of our voting securities as of July 15, 2026 by: (i) each person known by us to beneficially
own more than 5% of either class of Common Stock; (ii) each director; (iii) each named executive officer; and (iv) all directors and executive
officers as a group.
Beneficial ownership is determined
in accordance with SEC rules. A person is deemed to beneficially own securities over which the person has or shares voting or investment
power and securities that the person has the right to acquire within 60 days. Shares that a person has the right to acquire within 60
days are included in that person’s ownership percentage but not in the ownership percentage of any other person. Except as otherwise indicated
and subject to applicable community-property laws, the persons listed below have sole voting and investment power over the securities
shown.
As of July 15, 2026, 47,581,062
shares of Common Stock were outstanding, consisting of 33,655,422 shares of Class A Common Stock and 13,925,640 shares of Class B Common
Stock.
