Item 4. Ownership

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

(a) Amount Beneficially Owned

As of the close of business on April 23, 2021, the reporting persons beneficially owned an aggregate of 8,925,739 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock or 5.0% of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding.

Thereafter, as of the close of business on April 30, 2021:

i) Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Integrated Core Strategies"), beneficially owned 4,819,778 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock;

ii) Grandview LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Grandview"), beneficially owned 2,965,382 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock;

iii) ICS Opportunities, Ltd., an exempted company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("ICS Opportunities"), beneficially owned 432,128 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock; and

iv) ICS Opportunities II LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company ("ICS Opportunities II"), beneficially owned 57,751 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, which together with the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock beneficially owned by Integrated Core Strategies, Grandview and ICS Opportunities represented 8,275,039 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock or 4.7% of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding.

Millennium International Management LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("Millennium International Management"), is the investment manager to ICS Opportunities and ICS Opportunities II and may be deemed to have shared voting control and investment discretion over securities owned by ICS Opportunities and ICS Opportunities II.

Millennium Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Millennium Management"), is the general partner of the managing member of Integrated Core Strategies and may be deemed to have shared voting control and investment discretion over securities owned by Integrated Core Strategies. Millennium Management is also the managing member of Grandview and may also be deemed to have shared voting control and investment discretion over securities owned by Grandview. Millennium Management is also the general partner of the 100% owner of ICS Opportunities and ICS Opportunities II and may also be deemed to have shared voting control and investment discretion over securities owned by ICS Opportunities and ICS Opportunities II.

The managing member of Millennium Group Management is a trust of which Israel A. Englander, a United States citizen ("Mr. Englander"), currently serves as the sole voting trustee. Therefore, Mr. Englander may also be deemed to have shared voting control and investment discretion over securities owned by Integrated Core Strategies, Grandview, ICS Opportunities and ICS Opportunities II.

The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by Millennium International Management, Millennium Management, Millennium Group Management or Mr. Englander as to beneficial ownership of the securities owned by Integrated Core Strategies, Grandview, ICS Opportunities or ICS Opportunities II, as the case may be.

(b) Percent of Class:

As of the close of business on April 30, 2021, Millennium Management, Millennium Group Management and Mr. Englander may be deemed to have beneficially owned 8,275,039 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock or 4.7% of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding (see Item 4(a) above), which percentage was calculated based on 177,730,773 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding as of April 15, 2021, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-K/A filed on April 30, 2021.
