4 terms

indirect ownership financial

"The transactions are reported as indirect ownership, including by GEMS Fund 4, L.P."

beneficial ownership financial

"Mr. Golub disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of common stock"

Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.

pecuniary interest financial

"except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein"

family trust financial

"shares are held for the benefit of Mr. Golub's family trust"
