(a)
Name of person filing:
This Amendment No. 11 (the "Amendment No. 11") relates to the Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13G filed jointly by Magnetar Financial LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Magnetar Financial"), Magnetar Capital Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("Magnetar Capital Partners"), Supernova Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Supernova Management"), and Alec N. Litowitz ("Mr. Litowitz") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on September 10, 2021, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on February 14, 2022, Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on November 10, 2022, Amendment No. 3 filed with the SEC on January 31, 2023, Amendment No. 4 filed with the SEC on November 13, 2023, Amendment No. 5 filed with the SEC on February 14, 2024, Amendment No. 6 filed with the SEC on November 14, 2024, Amendment No. 7 filed with the SEC on February 14, 2025, Amendment No. 8 filed with the SEC on May 15, 2025, Amendment No. 9 filed with the SEC on August 14, 2025, and Amendment No. 10 filed with the SEC on November 14, 2025 by Magnetar Financial, Magnetar Capital Partners, Supernova Management and David J. Snyderman ("Mr. Snyderman").
This statement is filed on behalf of each of the following persons (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"):
i) Magnetar Financial LLC ("Magnetar Financial");
ii) Magnetar Capital Partners LP ("Magnetar Capital Partners");
iii) Supernova Management LLC ("Supernova Management"); and
iv) David J. Snyderman ("Mr. Snyderman").
This statement relates to shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of the Issuer issuable to the Reporting Persons upon (a) the potential exercise of Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the "Warrants") held by the Magnetar Vehicles (as defined below); (b) the potential conversion of the Issuer's 7.00% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes Due 2031 (the "Notes") held by the Magnetar Vehicles; (c) the potential conversion of the Issuer's 8.75% Series D Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series D Preferred Stock") held by the Magnetar Vehicles; and/or (d) the potential conversion of the Issuer's 9% Series B Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock") held by the Magnetar Vehicles. The ability of the Reporting Persons to so exercise and convert is, however, subject to the Ownership Limits described in the following paragraph. The beneficial ownership figures and related percentages in this Amendment No. 11 are based on the Reporting Persons' interpretation of the Ownership Limits as applicable to their security holdings in the Issuer.
The Issuer's Charter provides that no person or entity may actually or beneficially own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the applicable constructive ownership provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, more than (a) 9.8% (in value or in number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding shares of the Issuer's Common Stock or (b) 9.8% in value of the outstanding shares of all classes and series of the Issuer's capital stock, in each case unless the Issuer's board of directors grants a waiver from such limitation. Each Warrant includes a similar limitation that restricts the number of warrant shares that may be acquired by a holder of that Warrant upon exercise to the extent necessary to ensure that following such exercise the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned (when aggregated pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code) does not exceed 9.8% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. We refer to these Charter and Warrant limitations together as the "Ownership Limits". Accordingly, and based on the Reporting Persons' interpretation of the Ownership Limits as applicable to their security holdings in the Issuer, the Reporting Persons believe that their actual, beneficial and constructive ownership of the Issuer is limited to 9.8% of the Issuer's then outstanding shares of Common Stock, or to 205,951 shares of Common Stock using the Issuer's number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 8, 2025 (which figure is based on the Issuer's outstanding share figure for its Common Stock as reported in its current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 8, 2025), plus 96,000 shares of Common Stock that the Issuer issued to an investor on December 12, 2025 and 16,000 shares of Common Stock that the Issuer issued to an investor on December 16, 2025 (each as reported in the Issuer's current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 17, 2025). The Reporting Persons describe the calculation of this share figure in the footnotes to the tables in this Amendment No. 11.
The Warrants, Notes, Series D Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock are held by Magnetar Structured Credit Fund, LP ("Structured Credit Fund") and Magnetar Longhorn Fund LP ("Longhorn Fund"), both Delaware limited partnerships; and Magnetar Lake Credit Fund LLC ("Lake Credit Fund"), Purpose Alternative Credit Fund - F LLC ("Alternative Fund F") and Purpose Alternative Credit Fund - T LLC ("Alternative Fund T"), all Delaware limited liability companies. In this Schedule 13G, we refer to the foregoing holders collectively as the "Magnetar Vehicles".
Magnetar Financial serves as (i) the investment manager to Longhorn Fund, Alternative Fund F and Alternative Fund T, (ii) general partner of Structured Credit Fund and (iii) manager of Lake Credit Fund. As such, Magnetar Financial exercises voting and investment power over securities held by the Magnetar Vehicles.
Magnetar Capital Partners is the sole member and parent holding company of Magnetar Financial.
Supernova Management is the general partner of Magnetar Capital Partners.
The Administrative Manager of Supernova Management is currently Mr. Snyderman.
(b)
Address or principal business office or, if none, residence:

Exhibit Information
Exhibit A - Joint Filing Agreement, dated February 17, 2026, by and among the Reporting Persons
Exhibit B - Power of Attorney, dated December 22, 2022
What stake in Wheeler Real Estate (WHLR) does the Magnetar group report?
The Magnetar group reports beneficial ownership of 205,951 Wheeler common shares, representing 9.8% of the class. This percentage is calculated under Wheeler’s charter Ownership Limits, which cap individual ownership at 9.8% of outstanding common or total capital stock.
How did Magnetar calculate its 9.8% beneficial ownership in WHLR?
Magnetar’s 9.8% is based on 205,951 shares over a calculated 2,101,550 Wheeler common shares. That base includes reported outstanding shares plus recent issuances and assumes potential conversion or exercise of certain Magnetar-held warrants, notes and preferred stock, all subject to Ownership Limits.
Which Magnetar-affiliated entities filed this Schedule 13G/A for WHLR?
The filing is made jointly by Magnetar Financial LLC, Magnetar Capital Partners LP, Supernova Management LLC and individual reporting person David J. Snyderman. Together they are treated as Reporting Persons with shared voting and investment power over the reported Wheeler Real Estate common shares.
What are Wheeler Real Estate’s 9.8% Ownership Limits mentioned in the filing?
Wheeler’s charter restricts any person from owning more than 9.8% of outstanding common stock, or 9.8% of all capital stock by value. Related warrant terms similarly cap post-exercise holdings at 9.8%, unless the board grants a waiver, limiting how much Magnetar can beneficially hold.
Do the Magnetar Reporting Persons control how the WHLR shares are voted and sold?
The Magnetar Reporting Persons report zero sole voting or dispositive power, but shared power over 205,951 Wheeler shares. Magnetar Financial exercises voting and investment authority over the Magnetar investment vehicles, with control relationships flowing through Magnetar Capital Partners, Supernova Management and David J. Snyderman.
Are Magnetar’s WHLR securities intended to influence control of the company?
The Reporting Persons certify the Wheeler securities were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business. They state they were not acquired, and are not held, for the purpose of changing or influencing control of Wheeler, except for limited proxy nomination-related activities referenced in the certification.
