In connection with the Issuers initial public offering (the IPO), the Issuer entered into an amended and restated stockholders agreement, dated October 6, 2021 (the Stockholders Agreement), with the Voting Group members and certain other stockholders of the Issuer.

General
The Reporting Person acquired the securities described in this Schedule 13D for investment purposes and intends to review such investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Any actions the Reporting Person might undertake may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice and will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons review of numerous factors, including, but not limited to: an ongoing evaluation of the Issuers business, financial condition, operations and prospects; price levels of the Issuers securities; general market, industry and economic conditions; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities; and other future developments.
Subject to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement and applicable law, the Reporting Person may acquire additional securities of the Issuer, or retain or sell all or a portion of the securities then held, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. In addition, the Reporting Person may engage in discussions with management, the Board, and stockholders of the Issuer and other relevant parties or encourage, cause or seek to cause the Issuer or such persons to consider or explore extraordinary corporate transactions, such as: a merger, reorganization or take-private transaction that could result in the de-listing or de-registration of the Common Stock; sales or acquisitions of assets or businesses; changes to the capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; or other material changes to the Issuers business or corporate structure, including changes in management or the composition of the Board.
Other than as described above, the Reporting Person does not currently have any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D, although, depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Person may change its purpose or formulate different plans or proposals with respect thereto at any time.

In addition, as discussed in Item 2 above, by virtue of the agreements made pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, the Voting Group members may be deemed to be acting as a group for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Shares beneficially owned by the other members of the Voting Group are not the subject of this Schedule 13D and accordingly, none of the other members of the Voting Group are included as reporting persons herein.
