The percent of class was calculated based on (i) 37,448,314 Common Shares outstanding as of February 25, 2022, as disclosed in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2022, plus (ii) 5,640,158 Common Shares issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares held by the Reporting Person, which are treated as converted into Common Shares only for the purpose of computing the Reporting Person’s beneficial ownership percentage pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act.

 

The share amounts listed above represent Common Shares underlying Series A Preferred Shares held directly by GPC Thames. On February 24, 2022, the Issuer entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with GPC Thames relating to the issuance and sale of 150,000 of the Company’s Series A Preferred Shares, for an aggregate purchase price of $150 million, or $1,000 per share, in a private placement. The closing of the transaction occurred on March 1, 2022, and the number of underlying Common Shares became fixed on March 8, 2022. The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible at the option of the holder at any time into Common Shares at an initial conversion price of $26.5950, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, including cash dividends on the Common Shares above specified levels, as well as certain adjustments in case of adverse developments.

 

In no event will the Series A Preferred Shares, together with any Common Shares received on conversion of Series A Preferred Shares or as Dividends with respect to Series A Preferred Shares, be entitled to vote in excess of 9.9% of the aggregate voting power of the then-outstanding Common Shares on an as converted basis or of the outstanding voting securities of the Company.
