Insights

Trustee completed transfer of controlling voting interest and removed indirect ownership.

The transaction documents a transfer of CFGM voting shares that previously linked the reporting person to 6,451,535 Class A shares and 1,800,000 warrants of the issuer; after closing, the reporting person reports 0 beneficial ownership of those securities.

This changes the public disclosure of who holds the voting control layer (now trusts controlled by Brandon G. Lutnick). Watch public ownership tables and any related disclosures in upcoming filings for further changes in control or board alignment over the next few quarters.

Form 4 documents a Section 16 change by disposition through related entities with clear disclaimers.

The filing uses standard Section 16 reporting mechanics: indirect holdings via CFGM, CFLP, Holdings and Investor were transferred and the reporting person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership beyond any pecuniary interest. The sale price reported for the voting shares of CFGM was $200,000.

Compliance implications are limited to accurate disclosure of the chain of ownership and the resulting zero beneficial ownership reported on 10/06/2025. Monitor subsequent Section 16 filings to confirm no remaining indirect interests or additional transfers in the near term.
