As set forth below, as a result of the transactions described herein, on April 1, 2024, each of the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Ordinary Shares. The filing of this Amendment represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.
