Rule 13d-3 regulatory
"Based on Rule 13d-3, VGI may be deemed to beneficially own the shares directly held by VGEII, VGEM, VLFM and VGOL."
Rule 13d-3 defines who is treated as the beneficial owner of a company’s shares for U.S. securities disclosure rules — essentially anyone who has the power to vote or direct how shares are voted, or the power to buy or sell them, even if they don’t hold the certificates. For investors this matters because crossing certain ownership thresholds triggers public filing and disclosure obligations and signals potential control or influence, much like having the keys to a car implies you can drive it even if it’s registered to someone else.

"Shared Dispositive Power 22,479,388.00"
Schedule 13G/A regulatory
"Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13G/A filed to remove Mr. Ott as a Reporting Person"
A Schedule 13G/A is an amended public filing with the U.S. securities regulator that updates a previous Schedule 13G, disclosing when an individual or group holds a substantial (typically over 5%) stake in a company and is claiming a passive, non‑controlling intent. Investors monitor these updates because rising or falling holdings can signal changing confidence, potential future moves, or shifts in voting power — like watching a public ledger where large shareholders quietly adjust their positions.
