CUSIP No. 03945R 102
SCHEDULE 13DPage 10 of 16 Pages


On January 4, 2023, through a joint press release issued by Stellantis and the Issuer, Stellantis announced its intention to increase its strategic shareholding including through future purchases of Issuer stock in the open market. Accordingly, depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase of such securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor from time to time to increase their positions in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase of securities of the Issuer on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable, any of which transactions are expected to be made by Stellantis.

Except as otherwise disclosed in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may from time to time engage in discussions with management and the board of directors of the Issuer (the "Board") and other shareholders and potential shareholders of the Issuer and other parties concerning, among other things, the business, operations and future plans of the Issuer. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and business strategy and the execution of that strategy by management, the price levels of the securities of the Issuer, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their respective investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, making proposals concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, Board composition or operations and strategy of the Issuer (including by independently exploring plans or proposals advocated by others, or variations thereon), purchasing additional securities of the Issuer, selling some or all of its securities of the Issuer, or changing its intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4.


Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) and (b) See Items 7-13 of the cover pages and Item 3 above.

The percentage calculations herein are based upon the statement in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 15, 2023, that there were 184,707,029 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding as of March 3, 2023.

(c) The following table lists transactions in the Class A Common Stock that were effected during the sixty day period prior to the filing of this Schedule 13D:

None.

(d) The Issuer, Stellantis, FCA US and FCA Italy are parties to the Forward Purchase Agreement (as defined in Item 6). Pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement, so long as Stellantis or its affiliates beneficially own Class A Common Stock equal to at least 12.5% of the Issuer’s outstanding Class A Common Stock, it will have the right to nominate one individual for election to the Board as a Class II director at the Issuer’s annual meeting of stockholders to occur in 2026 through the date of the Issuer’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2029. Thus, so long as Stellantis’ designated director remains on the Issuer’s board, such director will participate in any board decisions regarding the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Issuer’s Common Stock.

(e) Not applicable.
