The Reporting Persons, hereby amend their original Schedule 13D filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission with a filing date of January 18, 2023 (the Original Schedule 13D) relating to the Common Stock of the Issuer. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 (this Amendment) and not otherwise defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

Explanatory Note

This Amendment is made solely to correct typographical errors appearing on page 4 regarding VEPF VIII GP, LLCs place of organization and Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D. Specifically, the place of organization for VEPF VIII GP, LLC on page 4 should be Delaware and not the Cayman Islands, as previously reported in the Original Schedule 13D. Additionally, in Item 5 of the Amendment, the total number of shares of Issuer Common Stock subject to the Voting Agreement (as further described in Item 5) should be 21,071,302, or approximately 15.9% of the Issuers outstanding Common Stock, and not 52,678,254, or approximately 39.6% of the Issuers outstanding Common Stock, as reported in Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D. To correct the clerical errors discussed above, page 4 and Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D are hereby amended and replaced in their entirety by page 4 and Item 5 set forth herein.

Except as set forth herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported by the Reporting Persons in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

As a result of the matters described in Item 4 above, the Reporting Persons, and the Accenture Signatories (the Investors) and certain of their affiliates may collectively be deemed to constitute a group within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b) under the Act. The total number of shares of Issuer Common Stock subject to the voting agreements as described in the Voting Agreement, based on the number of shares of Issuer Common Stock owned by each of the Accenture Signatories and the Reporting Persons in the aggregate, is 21,071,302, or approximately 15.9% of the Issuers outstanding Common Stock. As a member of a group, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own any shares of Issuer Common Stock that may be beneficially owned by each other member of the group. Each of the Investors expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of all securities owned by the other Investors and does not have sole or shared power to dispose of the securities. Shares beneficially owned by the other Investors are not the subject of this Schedule 13D and, accordingly, none of the other Investors are included as reporting persons herein.
