| Item 4. | Ownership. |
Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the Issuer identified in Item 1.
| (a) | Amount Beneficially Owned: |
Reference to “beneficial ownership” of securities for purposes of this Amendment shall be understood to refer to beneficial ownership as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act.
| CUSIP No. 92539P101 | Page 17 of 24 |
As of the Event Date, which is the date as of which the Reporting Persons became obligated to file this Amendment, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate 12,349,086 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.
As of the Event Date, the 2017 Partnership was the direct beneficial owner of 6,108,442 of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock described in the preceding paragraph. 2017 GP is the general partner of the 2017 Partnership, and 2017 LLC is the general partner of 2017 GP. As such, 2017 GP and 2017 LLC may each be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the securities that are directly beneficially owned by the 2017 Partnership.
As of the Event Date, the 2019 Partnership was the direct beneficial owner of 4,260,047 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock described in the second paragraph of this Item 4(a). 2019 GP is the general partner of the 2019 Partnership, and 2019 LLC is the general partner of 2019 GP. As such, 2019 GP and 2019 LLC may each be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the securities that are directly beneficially owned by the 2019 Partnership.
As of Event Date, the 2023 Partnership was the direct beneficial owner of 1,800,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock described in the second paragraph of this Item 4(a). 2023 GP is the general partner of the 2023 Partnership, and 2023 LLC is the general partner of 2023 GP. As such, 2023 GP and 2023 LLC may each be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the securities that are directly beneficially owned by the 2023 Partnership.
As of the Event Date, Alphabet Holdings was the sole managing member of 2017 LLC, 2019 LLC, and 2023 LLC. As such, Alphabet Holdings may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own all of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock which are directly beneficially owned by the 2017 Partnership, the 2019 Partnership, and the 2023 Partnership. Accordingly, Alphabet Holdings’ indirect beneficial ownership represents 12,168,489 shares, in the aggregate, of the shares described in the second paragraph of this Item 4(a).
As of the Event Date, Verily was the direct beneficial owner of 180,597 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock described in the second paragraph of this Item 4(a).
Additionally, as of the Event Date: (i) XXVI was the controlling member of Verily and the sole member Alphabet Holdings; and (ii) Parent was the controlling stockholder of XXVI. As such, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, each of XXVI and Parent may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own all of the Issuer’s securities directly or indirectly beneficially owned by each of the other Reporting Persons, comprising an aggregate total of 12,349,086 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.
Notwithstanding, neither the filing of the Statement nor this Amendment shall be construed as an admission that any of: (i) the 2017 Partnership, 2017 GP and 2017 LLC (collectively, the “2017 Affiliates”); (ii) the 2019 Partnership, 2019 GP and 2019 LLC (collectively, the “2019 Affiliates”); (iii) the 2023 Partnership, 2023 GP and 2023 LLC (collectively, the “2023 Affiliates”); or (iv) Verily (Verily, the 2017 Affiliates, the 2019 Affiliates, and the 2023 Affiliates, as context dictates, each being referred to herein as an “Affiliate Group”), is or has been, for purposes of Sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the direct or indirect beneficial owner of any of the Issuer’s securities reported herein as beneficially owned by any other Affiliate Group. Each Affiliate Group expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned by the other Affiliate Groups.
| (b) | Percent of Class: |
As of the Event Date, the Reporting Persons were deemed to directly or indirectly beneficially own an aggregate 15.4% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock. Of that percentage, beneficial ownership was attributable as follows: (i) 7.6%, directly to the 2017 Partnership and indirectly to each of 2017 GP and 2017 LLC; (ii) 5.3%, directly to the 2019 Partnership and indirectly to each of 2019 GP and 2019 LLC; (iii) 2.2%, directly to the 2023 Partnership and indirectly to each of 2023 GP and 2023 LLC; (iv) 0.2% directly to Verily; (v) 15.1%%, indirectly to Alphabet Holdings; and (vi) 15.4%, indirectly to each of XXVI and Parent.
| CUSIP No. 92539P101 | Page 18 of 24 |
The aforementioned percentages were calculated in accordance with Rule 13(d)-3(d)(1)(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act and based on an aggregate total of 80,408,406 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding as of December 1, 2023, as disclosed in the Issuer’s prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on November 29, 2023 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) (File No.: 333-267578).
