**Item 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ownership.**

Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the Issuer identified in Item 1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)Amount Beneficially Owned:** 

Reference to "beneficial ownership" of securities for purposes of this statement shall be understood to refer to beneficial ownership as that term is defined in Rule 13d3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "***Exchange Act***").

As of December 31, 2022, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to directly or indirectly beneficially own an aggregate total of 23,190,901 shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock.

As of December 31, 2022, Mr. Sijbrandij was the direct beneficial owner of 1,500,000 of the securities described in the preceding paragraph. The aforementioned direct beneficial ownership consists of an aggregate 1,500,000 stock options (the "***Options***"), 1,500,000 of which were vested or capable of vesting within 60 days following December 31, 2022, and all of which are capable of being exercised for shares pursuant to an early exercise provision of the relevant stock option agreement with the Issuer. The Options are exercisable for an equal number of shares of the Issuer's Class B Common Stock and thereupon convertible on a one-for-one basis into Class A Common Stock.

As of December 31, 2022, the Trust was the direct beneficial owner of 21,690,901 shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock described in the second paragraph of this **<u>Item 4(a)</u>**, which securities consist of 21,690,901 shares of the Issuer's Class B Common Stock directly held by the Trust, and which are convertible into an equal number of shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock. Mr. Sijbrandij is the sole trustee of the Trust. As such, Mr. Sijbrandij may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of the securities directly beneficially owned by the Trust.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)Percent of Class:** 

As of December 31, 2022, the Reporting Persons were deemed to directly or indirectly beneficially own an aggregate total of 20.3% of the Issuer's outstanding Class A Common Stock. Of that percentage, beneficial ownership was attributable as follows: (i) 1.3%, directly to Mr. Sijbrandij; and (ii) 19.0%, directly to the Trust and indirectly to Mr. Sijbrandij as its trustee.

The aforementioned percentages were calculated in accordance with Rule 13(d)-3(d)(1)(i), promulgated under the Exchange Act, and based on an aggregate total of 91,200,000 shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock outstanding as of November 25, 2022, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report for the period ended October 31, 2022, filed on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 6, 2022.
