held of record financial

"shares are held of record by JDH Capital I, L.P."

general partner financial

"is the general partner of JDH Capital I, L.P."

A general partner is the person or firm that runs an investment partnership and legally represents it — they make the day-to-day decisions, choose which assets to buy or sell, and are responsible for the partnership’s obligations. Investors care because the general partner’s judgment, risk-taking and fee and profit-sharing arrangements determine both the potential returns and the level of exposure to losses; think of the GP as the ship’s captain whose skill and honesty shape the voyage’s outcome.

pecuniary interest financial

"except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein, if any"
