        <commentText>This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this "Amendment") is being filed by Glen A. Taylor (the "Reporting Person") to amend and supplement certain Items of that the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on December 8, 2025 (the "Original Schedule 13D"). Information contained in the Original Schedule 13D, remains effective except to the extent that it is amended, restated, supplemented, or superseded by the information contained in this Amendment. Capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Schedule 13D.</commentText>

      <item3>
        <fundsSource>Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following as the last paragraph thereof:

On February 12, 2026, the Reporting Person purchased in the offering described in Envoy Medical, Inc.'s (the "Company") Prospectus dated February 11, 2026 (filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026), 18,750,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and Series A-1 Warrants to purchase 11,250,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the "Series A-1 Warrants") and  Series A-2 Warrants to purchase 18,750,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the "Series A-2 Warrants" and collectively, with the Series A-1 Warrants, the "Common Warrants"). For each share of Class A Common Stock purchased, the Reporting Person received accompanying Common Warrants in the amount of six-tenths (0.6) of a Series A-1 Warrant and one Series A-2 Warrant. The combined offering price for each share of Class A Common Stock and accompanying Common Warrants was $0.40. The aggregate purchase price of the Class A Common Stock and accompanying Common Warrants purchased by the Reporting Person was $7,500,000 which was funded with personal funds.

The Common Warrants have an exercise price of $0.40 per share of Class A Common Stock and will be exercisable beginning on the effective date of stockholder approval of the issuance of the shares upon exercise of the Common Warrants ("Stockholder Approval Date"). The Series A-1 Warrants will expire on the earlier of the 24-month anniversary of the Stockholder Approval Date or 30 days following the occurrence of Milestone 1 (as defined in the Series A-1 Warrant). The Series A-2 Warrants will expire on the earlier of the 60-month anniversary of the Stockholder Approval Date or 30 days following the occurrence of Milestone 2 (as defined in the Series A-2 Warrant).

The Reporting Person purchased the Class A Common Stock and Common Warrants at the same purchase price per share and on the same terms as other investors in the offering.</fundsSource>

        <percentageOfClassSecurities>Item 5 is hereby amended to read as follows:

The information set forth in the cover pages and Item 3 of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference.

As of February 12, 2025, the Reporting Person beneficially owns an aggregate of 68,909,614 shares of Class A Common Stock, which represents 84.8% of the Class A Common Stock based upon an aggregate of 76,881,110 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Company's offering, as reported in the Company's Prospectus dated February 11, 2026, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026. Although the Common Warrants are exercisable only after the Stockholder Approval Date such that the Reporting Person may not have a right to acquire the Class A Common Stock underlying the Common Warrants within 60 days, for the purposes of this Amendment, the shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Common Warrants are treated as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person.

As of February 12, 2025, the Reporting Person holds an aggregate of 29,040,049 shares of Class A Common Stock, which represents 37.7% of the 76,881,110 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Company's offering.</percentageOfClassSecurities>
