        <transactionPurpose>Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On March 3, 2026, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Royal Cup, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent") and BP I Brew Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"). On May 5, 2026, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer (the "Merger"), with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time of the Merger, each Share was automatically canceled, subject to certain customary exceptions specified in the Merger Agreement, and converted into the right to receive $1.29 in cash, without interest (the "Merger Consideration").

Accordingly, as a result of the Merger, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own any securities of the Issuer.</transactionPurpose>

Except as otherwise set forth in Item 4, there have been no transactions in the securities of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days.</transactionDesc>
