“The Reporting Persons as of January 26, 2023, after giving effect to the pro rata distributions-in-kind described in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D, have beneficial ownership of less than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock and are therefore discontinuing any reporting obligation under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Securities Exchange Act”).”

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

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

“On January 26, 2023, each of CPH Phase II SPV LP (“Phase II”) and CPH Phase III SPV LP (“Phase III”) commenced a pro rata distribution-in-kind to its limited partners, for no additional consideration from such limited partners, of the following respective numbers of shares of Common Stock then held by such entity: Phase II, 9,220,565 such shares; and Phase III, 6,405,423 such shares. After giving effect to these distributions-in-kind, Phase II holds a total of 730,794 shares of Common Stock (all of which are Earnout Shares (as such term is defined in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D)), representing approximately 1.0% of the outstanding Common Stock, and Phase III holds a total of 662,023 such shares (519,009 of which are Earnout Shares), representing approximately 0.9% of the outstanding Common Stock. Pursuant to these distributions-in-kind, in his capacity as a limited partner of each of Phase II and Phase III, Mr. Lewin received 111,449 shares of Common Stock from Phase II, and 185,748 such shares from Phase III, representing in aggregate approximately 0.4% of the outstanding Common Stock.

The aggregate number and percentage of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned as of January 26, 2023, after giving effect to the pro rata distributions-in-kind described in this Item 4, by each Reporting Person and, for such Reporting Person, the number of such shares as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are set forth on rows 7 through 11 and row 13 of the respective cover pages of Amendment No. 1 to this Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference. Each of CPH Holdings VII, LLC, the sole general partner of each of Phase II and Phase III (the “GP”), and Mr. Lewin, the sole manager of the GP, disclaims beneficial ownership of the remaining shares of Common Stock held by Phase II and Phase III, except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein. The Reporting Persons as of January 26, 2023, after giving effect to the pro rata distributions-in-kind described in this Item 4, have beneficial ownership of less than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock and are therefore discontinuing any reporting obligation under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act.”

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Parts (a) and (b) of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated to read in their entirety as follows:

As of January 26, 2023, after giving effect to the pro rata distributions-in-kind described in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D, 730,794 shares of Common Stock are directly held by Phase II, which represents approximately 1.0% of the outstanding Common Stock, and 662,023 such shares are directly held by Phase III, which represents approximately 0.9% of the outstanding Common Stock.

The text added to Item 4 of this Schedule 13D pursuant to Amendment No. 1 thereto is hereby incorporated by reference into parts (a) and (b) of this Item 5.”

Part (e) of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

“(e) As of January 26, 2023, after giving effect to the pro rata distributions-in-kind described in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons ceased to have beneficial ownership of more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock and are therefore discontinuing any reporting obligation under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act.”
