Item 5, Sections (a) and (b) of the Schedule 13D, and Annex I are hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

  (a) and (b)

 

  1. As of the date hereof, BRPLP beneficially owns directly 1,169,477 shares of Common Stock and 688,125 warrants, representing 6.15% of the Issuer’s Common Stock, after giving effect to the issuance of 688,125 shares of common stock underlying warrants.

As of the date hereof, the Sponsor beneficially owns directly 1,860,461 shares of Common Stock and 206,250 warrants, representing 6.95% of the Issuer’s Common Stock, after giving effect to the issuance of 206,250 shares of common stock underlying warrants.

 

  2. BRPGP is the general partner of BRPLP, BRCM is the parent company of BRPGP and BRF is the parent company of BRCM. As a result, BRPGP, BRCM and BRF may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the Common Stock held by BRPLP.
