Item 1.

Security and Issuer

 

Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the information set forth in the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 21, 2021, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 filed on June 15, 2023 (as so amended, the “Original Schedule 13D” and, as amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 2, the “Schedule 13D”), with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D. The filing of this Amendment No. 2 represents the final amendment to this Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background

 

The second paragraph of Item 2(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

Management Company ultimately indirectly controls (i) Sixth Street Growth GenPar, L.P. (formerly known as TSSP Capital Solutions GenPar, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership, which is the managing member of (a) TCS Finance (A), LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which is the managing member of Avatar Investment Solutions (A), LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Avatar (A)”), which directly holds 2,193,228 shares of Common Stock and (b) TCS Finance 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which is the managing member of Avatar Investment Solutions 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Avatar 1”), which directly holds 1,718,235 shares of Common Stock and (ii) Sixth Street Opportunities GenPar IV, L.P. (formerly known as TSSP Opportunities GenPar IV, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership, which is the managing member of Redwood IV Finance 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which is the managing member of Avatar Investment Opportunities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“AIO”), which directly holds 3,422,529 shares of Common Stock (together with the shares directly held by Avatar (A) and Avatar 1, the “Shares”). Because of Management Company’s relationship Avatar (A), Avatar 1 and AIO, Management Company may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares. Management Company is managed by its general partner, whose managing member is Alan Waxman. Each of Management Company and Mr. Waxman disclaim beneficial ownership of the Shares except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following:

 

On September 15, 2023, Avatar (A), Avatar 1, and AIO entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which the Reporting Persons sold an aggregate of 16,666,600 shares of Common Stock at a price of $6.00 per share (the “Transaction”). The Transaction is expected to close on or around September 20, 2023.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

(a, b)  As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 7,333,992 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 3.96% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. This amount consists of: (i) 2,193,228 shares of Common Stock held directly by Avatar (A); (ii) 1,718,235 shares of Common Stock held directly by Avatar 1; and (iii) 3,422,529 shares of Common Stock held directly by AIO.  This amount excludes the 715,249 shares of Common Stock representing the Reporting Persons’ maximum Contingent Consideration, because the Reporting Persons do not have the right to acquire such shares of Common Stock at this time.  The foregoing percentage is based on 185,397,977 shares of Common Stock as of August 9, 2023, as set forth in the supplement Form S-1 filed by the Issuer on August 10, 2023.

 

 

 

(c) On September 15, 2023, the Reporting Persons sold an aggregate 16,666,600 shares of Common Stock at a price per share of $6.00. This amount includes 4,984,140 shares of Common Stock sold by Avatar (A); (ii) 3,904,714 shares of Common Stock sold by Avatar 1; and (iii) 7,777,746 shares of Common Stock sold by AIO. Other than as set forth herein, no transactions in the Issuer’s securities have been effected by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days. 

 

(e) As of September 15, 2023 the Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Issuer's Common Stock.
