Nominees Limited is 1st Floor, Royal Chambers, St Julian’s Avenue, St Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 2HH. Notion Capital Managers
LLP has sole investment and voting power over Ropemaker Nominees Limited’s shares. The investment decisions of Notion Capital
Managers LLP are made by the majority vote of an investment committee comprised of five members, including Stephen Chandler. Under
the so-called “rule of three,” if voting and dispositive decisions regarding an entity’s securities are made

individual member of the investment committee of Notion Capital Managers LLP exercises voting or dispositive control over any of
the securities over which it holds sole investment and voting power. Accordingly, Mr. Chandler is not deemed to have or share
