| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | |
| (a) |
As of February 24, 2026, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner (pursuant to Rule 13d-3) of an aggregate of 7,852,085 shares of common stock, representing approximately 30.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Issuer, comprised of (i) 2,047,544 shares of Class A common stock owned by Mr. and Mrs. Parker as joint tenants with rights of survivorship ("JTWROS"), (ii) 227,872 shares of Class A common stock held by Mr. Parker, (iii) 800,000 options to purchase Class A common stock held by Mr. Parker, (iv) 76,669 shares of Class A common stock allocated to the account of Mr. Parker under the Issuer's 401(k) plan (the number of shares reported as beneficially owned is equal to Mr. Parker's February 18, 2026, account balance in the employer stock fund under the Issuer's 401(k) plan divided by the closing price on such date), and (v) 4,700,000 shares of Class B common stock. The Issuer has both Class A and Class B common stock. The Class A common stock has one vote per share. The Class B common stock has two votes per share while beneficially owned by David R. Parker, Jacqueline F. Parker, or certain members of their immediate family. The Class B common stock is currently controlled by David and Jacqueline Parker. Each share of Class B common stock is convertible into the same number of shares of Class A common stock (i) at any time at the election of the holder and (ii) automatically upon transfer to any person other than members of Mr. and Mrs. Parker's immediate family. As of November 5, 2025, there were 20,347,178 shares of Class A common stock and 4,700,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding (according to the Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2025). The percentage indicated is based upon 25,847,178 shares outstanding as of November 5, 2025, which includes the 800,000 options to purchase Class A common stock held by Mr. Parker and the 4,700,000 shares of Class B common stock convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock. As a result of the two-class structure, and including the unexercised options to purchase Class A common stock, Mr. and Mrs. Parker may be deemed to control stock possessing approximately 41.1% of the voting power of all outstanding Issuer stock. | |
