The percentage of shares beneficially owned is based on 104,232,799\nordinary shares outstanding as of February 28, 2026.

We did not deem these shares outstanding,\nhowever, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.\n\nAll of our shareholders, including the shareholders listed below,\nhave the same voting rights attached to their ordinary shares.
