      <comments>The securities reported herein exclude prefunded warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and milestone warrants to purchase 6,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. Those warrants may not be exercised to the extent that, after giving effect to such exercise, the reporting person would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. As a result, the reporting person cannot currently exercise any of the warrants. The percentages reported in this Schedule 13G are based on 49,882,790 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of August 6, 2026, as reported in the Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.</comments>
