Builders Vision, LLC either serves as or controls the General Partner of each of the S2G Food & Agriculture Funds entities. Lukas T. Walton controls Builders Vision and the S2G Food & Agriculture Funds and may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the securities held directly by such entities.

As announced in a May 2, 2024 press release, on April 30, 2024, the investment team that has continually managed the S2G Food & Agriculture Funds and the reported securities launched as a separate registered investment adviser called S2G Investments, LLC (the “Launch”).

As such, although S2G investments, LLC will operate independently from Builders Vision, LLC, the two firms will have a continuing relationship, and this statement is being amended solely to add S2G Investments, LLC as a reporting person.

Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities and the filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission of such beneficial ownership for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act.
