On February 23, 2022, the Company completed its initial public offering.

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

 

This Statement is filed by Cincinnati Cornerstone Investors BWV I, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“CCI BWV”), which is a pooled investment vehicle, and Cincinnati Cornerstone Capital, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“CCC”), which is a private fund adviser exempt from registration and the manager and a member of CCI BWV. As manager of CCI BWV, CCC has the right to control the voting and disposition of the Common Stock held by CCI BWV. CCI BWV and CCC sometimes are referred to herein individually as a “Reporting Person” and collectively as the “Reporting Persons.” The Reporting Persons are filing this Statement jointly.

Upon the closing of the Company’s initial public offering on February 23, 2022, CCI BWV acquired direct ownership, and CCC acquired indirect ownership through CCI BWV, of 3,611,201 shares of Common Stock through the previously agreed upon automatic conversion of 735,632 shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock of the Company held by CCI BWV (the “Series Seed Preferred Stock”).

 

The directors and executive officers of CCC are set forth on Schedule I hereto. Schedule I sets forth each such person’s: (i) name, (ii) business address, (iii) present principal occupation of employment and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employee is employed, and (iv) citizenship. Michael Venerable, President and Chief Executive Officer of CCC, is a director of the Company.

 

Neither of the Reporting Persons nor any of their partners, managers, officers or other controlling persons has, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

 

Neither of the Reporting Persons nor any of their partners, managers, officers or other controlling persons has, during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3.

(a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own 3,611,201 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 32.7% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock. All of the Common Stock is beneficially owned directly by CCI BWV, and indirectly by CCC, the manager and a member of CCI BWV, through its control of CCI BWV.

 

The percentage ownership of shares of Common Stock by the Reporting Person as set forth in this Statement is based on the 11,048,587 shares of Common Stock reported by the Company as outstanding as of February 23, 2022 in its Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424 on February 23, 2022.

 

(b) CCC, as the manager of CCI BWV, has the sole power to direct the vote and the disposition of the Common Stock held by CCI BWV.

 

(c) The sole transaction by the Reporting Persons in the Common Stock in the last 60 days was the acquisition directly by CCI BWV and indirectly by CCC of 3,611,201 shares of Common Stock through the agreed upon automatic conversion of the Series Seed Preferred Stock held by CCI BWV and accrued and unpaid dividends thereon on the closing of the initial public offering of the Company on February 23, 2022.

 

(d) No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Common Stock beneficially owned by any Reporting Person; however, CCC, as the manager of CCI BWV, has the right from time to time to cause CCI BWV to make distributions to the members of CCI BWV of any such dividends or proceeds received by BWV.
