Such percentage ownership is calculated by reference to 192,996,511 shares outstanding as of December 15, 2025, comprising 187,727,321 shares outstanding as shown on the cover page of the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed November 12, 2025 plus 5,725,190 shares issued on December 15, as reported in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed that date. All such 18,312,735 Shares are issued and outstanding and owned directly by FMCH. Such 18,312,735 shares of Common Stock exclude any additional contingent shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement described in the initial Schedule 13D, and FME AG and FMCH disclaim any present beneficial ownership of any such additional shares. |

| (c) | The decrease in the percentage beneficial ownership reported herein from 9.9%, as reported in Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 5) to 9.5%, as reported herein, results solely from an increase in the number of outstanding shares of the Issuer's Common Stock subsequent to the filing of Amendment No. 5 to this Schedule 13D. Neither FME AG nor FMCH has disposed of or acquired any shares of the Issuer's Common Stock subsequent to the filing of their initial Schedule 13D in September 2021. |
