| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | |
| (a) | GEO is the record owner of the GEO Shares. As the sole member of GEO, NEA 18 VGE may be deemed to own beneficially the GEO Shares. As the general partner of NEA 18 VGE, NEA Partners 18 VGE may be deemed to own beneficially the GEO Shares. As the sole general partner of NEA Partners 18 VGE, NEA 18 VGE LLC may be deemed to own beneficially the GEO Shares. As members of NEA 18 VGE LLC, each of the Managers may be deemed to own beneficially the GEO Shares. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the GEO Shares other than those shares which such person owns of record. The percentage of outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is set forth on Line 13 of such Reporting Person's cover sheet. Such percentage was calculated based on 46,271,259 shares of Common Stock reported by the Issuer to be outstanding as of November 6, 2025, on the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2025. | |
| (b) | Regarding the number of shares as to which such person has: (i) sole power to vote or to direct the vote: See line 7 of cover sheets (ii) shared power to vote or to direct the vote: See line 8 of cover sheets (iii) sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition: See line 9 of cover sheets (iv) shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition: See line 10 of cover sheets. | |
| (c) | On January 14, 2026, GEO made a distribution of 625,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer to NEA 18 VGE, which made a pro rata distribution of the shares to its general partner and limited partners for no consideration (the "Distribution"). NEA Partners 18 VGE acquired 9,375 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as a result of the Distribution and, subsequent to the Distribution, on January 14, 2026, made a distribution of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer for no consideration, of which 7,577 shares were received by an entity for which Florence, Makhzoumi and Sandell may be deemed to have beneficial ownership (the "NEA Partners 18 VGE Distribution"). On January 15, 2026, the shares indirectly received by Florence, Makhzoumi and Sandell in the NEA Partners 18 VGE Distribution were sold as set forth on Schedule A. No other transactions in the Issuer's Common Stock were effected during the past 60 days by the Reporting Persons. Previously, on October 6, 2025, GEO elected to exercise 139,130 Warrants for 1,391,300 GEO Preferred Warrant Shares, which were immediately thereafter converted into 1,391,300 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. As a result of such exercise and conversion, GEO no longer holds any Warrants or GEO Preferred Warrant Shares, respectively, as of January 16, 2026. Following the Distribution, GEO now holds a total of 2,910,561 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the "GEO Shares"). | |
