Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Initial Schedule 13D. Unless indicated otherwise, all items left blank remain unchanged, and any items which are amended below are deemed to supplement the existing items in the Initial Schedule 13D. | ||
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | |
| (a) | Item 5(a) of the Initial Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
As of the date of this Schedule 13D, Mr. Kanders may be deemed to be the beneficial owner (as that term is defined under Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of 11,692,570 shares of common stock, constituting approximately 27.7% of the outstanding shares of common stock, which is comprised of: (i) 1,546 shares held by Warren B.

Kanders Roth IRA, (iii) 10,129,289 shares held by Kanders SAF; (iv) options to purchase an aggregate of 232,635 shares of common stock which were previously granted under the Company's 2021 Stock Incentive Plan and that are presently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof; and (v) 23,450 shares of common stock held by Allison Kanders Roth IRA.
The amount reported above as being beneficially owned by Mr. Kanders excludes (i) 229,797 shares underlying stock options to purchase shares of common stock which were previously granted under the Issuer's 2021 Stock Incentive Plan and that are not presently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof; and (ii) 71,481 shares underlying restricted stock units award which were previously granted under the Issuer's 2021 Stock Incentive Plan and that are not presently vested or vesting within 60 days of the date hereof.
The percentage of shares of common stock reported as being beneficially owned by Mr. Kanders is based upon 42,245,528 shares of common stock outstanding as of the date hereof, which includes: (i) 40,663,844 shares of common stock outstanding as of November 3, 2025, as set forth in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 4, 2025; (ii) options to purchase an aggregate of 232,635 shares of common stock which were previously granted under the Issuer's 2021 Stock Incentive Plan and that are presently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof; and (iii) an aggregate of 1,349,049 shares of common stock outstanding upon the vesting on November 10, 2025 of restricted stock units awards previously granted under the Issuer's 2021 Stock Incentive Plan.
Of the 11,692,570 shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, Kanders SAF has granted a security interest in an aggregate of 3,750,000 shares of the Issuer's common stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons in favor of Texas Capital Bank pursuant to the Loan Agreement described in Item 6 of the Initial Schedule 13D. | |
