ACTION NO. 1

APPROVAL OF REVERSE SPLIT CHARTER AMENDMENT TO GIVE THE BOARD THE DISCRETION TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

Background

On July 18, 2025, the Board unanimously approved, and recommended that our stockholders approve, the form of Reverse Split Charter Amendment to give the Board the discretion, until October 10, 2025 to effect a reverse stock split of our Common Stock at any ratio at the Board’s discretion, from 1-for-2 to 1-for-15, with the final ratio (if any) to be determined by, and subject to final approval of, the Board (the “reverse stock split”). On July 28, 2025, resolutions authorizing the Board to file the Reverse Split Charter Amendment were approved by the Consenting Stockholders holding approximately 66.9% of the voting power our outstanding shares of Common Stock on the Record Date.

The Board will have the sole discretion, until October 10, 2025 to elect whether to effect the reverse stock split and, if so, the number of shares— ranging from 2 to 15 —which will be combined into one share of our Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable. The text of the form of Reverse Split Charter Amendment, which would be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect the reverse stock split, is set forth in Appendix A to this Information Statement. However, such text is subject to amendment to include such changes as may be required by the office of the Delaware Secretary of State or as the Board deems necessary and advisable to effect the reverse stock split.

If the Board elects to effect the reverse stock split, the number of issued and outstanding shares of our Class Common Stock would be reduced in accordance with a reverse split ratio selected by the Board within the range described above. Except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares as described below, each stockholder will hold the same percentage of outstanding Common Stock immediately following the reverse stock split as such stockholder held immediately prior to the reverse stock split. We are not seeking a reduction of the authorized shares of our Common Stock in connection with the reverse stock split; therefore, if implemented, the reverse stock split will result in an effective increase in the authorized number of shares of our Common Stock available for issuance in the future.

Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split

We believe that implementing the Reverse Split Charter Amendment may provide benefits to the Company and our existing stockholders in a number of ways, including:

The reverse stock split would decrease the total number of shares of our Class A Common Stock outstanding and should, absent other factors, proportionately increase the market price of our Class A Common Stock, which would be above $1.00 per share. Therefore, the Board believes that the reverse

3

stock split is an effective means for us to regain compliance with the Listing Rule, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will maintain compliance with the Listing Rule or the other NYSE listing requirements.

Delisting from the NYSE may adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise additional financing through the public or private sale of equity securities, may significantly affect the ability of investors to trade in the Company’s securities and may negatively affect the value and liquidity of our Class A Common Stock. Delisting may also have other negative impacts, including potential loss of employee confidence, the loss of institutional investors or interest in business development opportunities.

Board Discretion to Implement or Abandon the Reverse Stock Split

The reverse stock split will be effected, if at all, only upon a subsequent determination by the Board that the reverse stock split is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders at the time. Such determination will be based upon several factors, including those described in “—Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split” above. Notwithstanding approval to file the Reverse Split Charter Amendment by the Consenting Stockholders, the Board may determine, in its sole discretion and prior to the effectiveness of any filing with the Delaware Secretary of State, not to effect the reverse stock split. If the Board decides not to implement the reverse stock split before October 10, 2025, further stockholder approval would be required prior to implementing any reverse stock split.

Criteria to Be Used for Decision to Effect the Reverse Stock Split

The Board has been authorized to proceed with the reverse stock split in any ratio ranging from 1:2 to 1:15 that it selects in its sole discretion. The Board is not required to determine to proceed with the reverse stock split and may not do so. In determining whether to proceed with the reverse stock split, the Board expects to consider a number of factors, including market conditions, existing and expected bid and trading prices of our Class A Common Stock, the continued listing requirements of the NYSE, and the amount of our authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock. The Board does not intend for the reverse stock split to be the first step in a series of plans or proposals of a “going private” transaction within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act.

Action by Written Consent; No Further Vote Required

Pursuant to Section 228 of the DGCL and in accordance with our Charter, prior to the date on which the issued and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock represents less than 50% of the total voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company that would then be entitled to vote in the election of directors at an annual meeting of stockholders (the “Voting Threshold Date”), any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of the outstanding Common Stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

The Company elected to obtain stockholder approval of the resolutions to file the Reverse Split Charter Amendment by written consent of the Consenting Stockholders, which, in accordance with our Charter, required

4

the affirmative approval of two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, voting together as a single class. As the requisite stockholder approval of the resolutions to file for the Reverse Split Charter Amendment has been received, all corporate approvals by or on behalf of the Company required for the approval of the Reverse Split Charter Amendment have been obtained and no further votes are needed.

Effects of the Reverse Stock Split

If the reverse stock split is effected by the Board, each stockholder will own a reduced number of shares of our Common Stock. This would affect all of our stockholders uniformly and would not affect any stockholder’s respective percentage ownership in the Company, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in a stockholder owning a fractional share as described below. The number of stockholders of record would not be affected by the reverse stock split, except to the extent that any stockholder holds only a fractional share interest and receives cash for such interest after the reverse stock split.

Proportionate voting rights and other rights of the holders of our Common Stock generally will not be affected by the reverse stock split (other than as a result of the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares as described below). For example, a holder of 5% of the voting power of our outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the reverse stock split would continue to hold 5% of the voting power of our outstanding shares of Common Stock after the reverse stock split.

The table below provides examples of a Reverse Stock Split at various ratios between 1-for-2 and 1-for-15:

In addition, because the number of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock would decrease following the reverse stock split without any reduction in the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock, the number of shares available for issuance by us in the future would effectively increase as a result of the reverse stock split. These additional shares would be available for issuance from time to time for a variety of general corporate purposes as the Board may determine to be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders from time to time.

The increase in the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance could have an anti-takeover effect. The additional shares could be issued to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of the Company or could be issued to persons allied with the Board or management and, thereby, have the effect of making it more difficult to remove directors or members of management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to effect such a removal.

As of July 18, 2025, the Company has (i) 24,087,362 shares of Class A Common Stock subject to outstanding stock and option awards, (ii) 15,557,664 outstanding warrants convertible into 24,334,210 shares of Class A Common Stock and (iii) shares of Class A Common Stock subject to issuance pursuant to the terms of certain convertible notes. Under the terms of the various instruments governing our outstanding stock awards, option awards, warrants and convertible notes, the reverse stock split will effect a reduction in the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock issuable upon the vesting of our stock awards, exercise of option awards and warrants, or upon conversion of convertible notes, in proportion to the reverse split ratio of the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will effect a proportionate increase in the exercise price of our outstanding stock options and warrants, and the conversion price of certain of our convertible notes. In connection with the reverse

5

stock split, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of outstanding stock awards, option awards, warrants or convertible notes will be rounded down to the nearest whole share and no cash payment will be made in respect of such rounding, except with respect to holders of certain warrants, pursuant to which such holders will additionally be paid cash (without interest or deduction) in lieu of such fractional share interests.

After the reverse stock split is effected, if at all, we will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. By itself, the reverse stock split will not have any impact on the market in which our Class A Common Stock is traded; however, our Class A Common Stock will be identified with a new CUSIP number following any reverse stock split.

Certain Risks and Potential Disadvantages Associated with the Reverse Stock Split

The effect of the reverse stock split upon the market price for our Class A Common Stock cannot be accurately predicted, and the history of similar stock split combinations for companies in like circumstances is varied. In particular, there is no assurance that the price per share of our Class A Common Stock after the reverse stock split is implemented will be 2 to 15 times, as applicable, the price per share of our Class A Common Stock immediately prior to the reverse stock split. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the market price of our Class A Common Stock immediately after the reverse stock split will be maintained for any period of time. Even if an increased share price can be maintained, the reverse stock split may not achieve the other desired results which have been outlined above. In particular, we cannot assure you that the reverse stock split will increase our stock price and have the desired effect of maintaining compliance with the continued listing requirements of the NYSE. Moreover, because some investors may view a reverse stock split negatively, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Split Charter Amendment will not adversely impact the market price of our common stock or, alternatively, that the market price following the reverse stock split will either exceed or remain in excess of the current market price.

In addition, although we believe the reverse stock split may enhance the desirability of our Class A Common Stock to certain potential investors, we cannot assure you that, if implemented, our Class A Common Stock will be more attractive to institutional and other long term investors or that the liquidity of our Class A Common Stock will increase. In particular, because there would be a reduced number of shares outstanding after the reverse stock split, implementation of the reverse stock split may lead to reduced trading, increased sales by retail investors and/or a smaller number of market makers for our Class A Common Stock, thereby decreasing liquidity of the Class A Common Stock.

If the reverse stock split is implemented, some stockholders may consequently own less than one hundred shares of our Common Stock. A purchase or sale of less than one hundred shares (an “odd lot” transaction) may result in incrementally higher trading costs through certain brokers, particularly “full service” brokers. Therefore, those stockholders who own less than one hundred shares following the reverse stock split may be required to pay modestly higher transaction costs should they then determine to sell their shares in the Company.

Effective Date

If the Board elects to proceed with the reverse stock split in one of the approved ratios, the reverse stock split would become effective on the date of the filing (the “Reverse Stock Split Effective Time”) of the Reverse Split Charter Amendment with the office of the Delaware Secretary of State, which will be no earlier than 20 calendar days after we send this Information Statement to our stockholders of record as of the Record Date. Except as explained below with respect to fractional shares, at the Reverse Stock Split Effective Time, all shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior thereto will be automatically combined and converted into new shares of our Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable, in accordance with the reverse stock split ratio determined by the Board among the approved ratios described above. If the Board decides not to implement the Reverse Split Charter Amendment before October 10, 2025, further stockholder approval would be required prior to implementing any reverse stock split.

Procedure for Effecting the Reverse Stock Split and Exchange of Stock Certificates, if Applicable

Overview

If the Board elects to proceed with the reverse stock split within the previously approved range, the Company will issue, at least three (3) business days in advance of the Reverse Stock Split Effective Time, a press release announcing the reverse stock split, the final ratio approved by the Board, and the Reverse Stock Split Effective Time. The press release may contain additional information regarding any procedures that stockholders will need to follow in connection with the reverse stock split.

Within four (4) business days following the Reverse Stock Split Effective Time, the Company will file a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing that the Reverse Split Charter Amendment has been filed with the Delaware Secretary of State. In addition, as soon as practicable after the Reverse Stock Split Effective Time, stockholders of record will be notified by our transfer agent that the reverse stock split has been effected.

Shares Held in Book-Entry Form

Our registered holders of Common Stock may hold some or all of their shares of Common Stock electronically in book-entry form with our transfer agent. Unless the Company makes a subsequent public disclosure to the contrary at the time of approving any reverse stock split, if you hold shares of Common Stock in book-entry form, you will not need to take any action to receive post-reverse stock split shares of our Common Stock. As soon as practicable after the Reverse Stock Split Effective Time, our transfer agent will send to your registered address a statement of ownership indicating the number of post-reverse stock split shares of Common Stock you hold. If applicable, a check representing a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares will also be enclosed with the statement (see “Fractional Shares” below).

Fractional Shares

No fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares of our Common Stock will be entitled to receive cash (without interest or deduction) in lieu of such fractional share interests, in an amount equal to the proceeds attributable to the sale of such fractional shares following the aggregation and sale by our transfer agent of all fractional shares otherwise issuable.

As of the Record Date, there were approximately 305 stockholders of record of our Common Stock. If the Board elects to implement the reverse stock split, we do not expect that cashing out fractional stockholders would significantly reduce the number of stockholders of record.

Accounting Matters

The proposed Reverse Split Charter Amendment will not affect the par value of our Common Stock per share, which will remain $0.0001 par value per share; however, the stated capital attributable to Common Stock on our balance sheet will be reduced proportionately with the reverse stock split, if implemented. Any reduction in stated capital will be added to additional paid in capital, the net effect of which is that stockholders’ equity will remain unchanged. Reported per share net income or loss will be higher because there will be fewer shares of Common Stock outstanding.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences to our stockholders as a result of the reverse stock split, if implemented. The summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial authorities and current administrative rulings and practices as in effect on the date of this Information Statement. Changes to the

7

laws or differing interpretations could alter the tax consequences described below, possibly with retroactive effect. The Company has not sought and will not seek an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the reverse stock split and there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with the conclusions reached herein. This summary is limited to stockholders that are U.S. holders, as defined below, and that hold our Common Stock as a capital asset (generally, property held for investment).

This summary is for general information only and does not address all U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be applicable to a holder’s particular circumstances or to holders that may be subject to special tax rules, such as, for example, brokers and dealers in securities, currencies or commodities, banks and financial institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, expatriates, tax-exempt entities, governmental organizations, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities, certain former citizens or long-term residents of the U.S., insurance companies, persons holding shares of our Common Stock as part of a hedging, integrated or conversion transaction or a straddle or persons deemed to sell shares of our Common Stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code, persons that hold more than 5% of our Common Stock, persons that hold our Common Stock in an individual retirement account, 401(k) plan or similar tax-favored account or partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes and investors in such entities.

This summary does not address any U.S. federal tax consequences other than U.S. federal income tax consequences (such as estate or gift tax consequences), the Medicare tax on net investment income, the alternative minimum tax or any U.S. state, local or foreign tax consequences. This summary also does not address any U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to any other transaction other than the Reverse Stock Split.

For purposes of this summary, a “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our Common Stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

If an entity (or arrangement) classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds shares of our Common Stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If a holder of our Common Stock is a partner of a partnership holding shares of our Common Stock, such holder should consult his or her own tax advisor.

THIS SUMMARY OF CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATION AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSIDERATIONS ARISING UNDER OTHER U.S. FEDERAL TAX LAWS (SUCH AS THE ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS) OR UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN OR OTHER TAXING JURISDICTION OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE TAX TREATY).

The Reverse Stock Split is intended to be treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Assuming the Reverse Stock Split qualifies as a recapitalization, except as described below with respect to cash

8

received in lieu of a fractional share, a U.S. holder will not recognize any gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the Reverse Stock Split. In the aggregate, a U.S. holder’s tax basis in the Common Stock received pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split (excluding the portion of the tax basis that is allocable to any fractional share) will equal the U.S. holder’s tax basis in its Common Stock surrendered in the Reverse Stock Split in exchange therefor, and the holding period of the U.S. holder’s Common Stock received pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split will include the holding period of the Common Stock surrendered in the Reverse Stock Split in exchange therefor.

In general, a U.S. holder who receives a cash payment in lieu of a fractional share will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash received in lieu of the fractional share and the portion of the U.S. holder’s tax basis of the Common Stock surrendered in the Reverse Stock Split that is allocable to the fractional share. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period in its Common Stock surrendered in the Reverse Stock Split is more than one year as of the date of the Reverse Stock Split. The deductibility of net capital losses by individuals and corporations is subject to limitations. Depending on a stockholder’s individual facts and circumstances, it is possible that cash received in lieu of a fractional share could be treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the Code, so stockholders should consult their own tax advisors as to that possibility and the resulting tax consequences to them in that event.

U.S. holders that have acquired different blocks of our Common Stock at different times or at different prices are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the allocation of their aggregated adjusted basis among, and the holding period of, our Common Stock.

Information returns generally will be required to be filed with the IRS with respect to the payment of cash in lieu of a fractional share made pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split unless such U.S. holder is an exempt recipient and timely and properly establishes with the applicable withholding agent the exemption. In addition, payments of cash in lieu of a fractional share made pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split may, under certain circumstances, be subject to backup withholding, unless a U.S. holder timely provides to the applicable withholding agent proof of an applicable exemption or a correct taxpayer identification number, and otherwise complies with the applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not additional tax and may be refunded or credited against the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the U.S. holder timely furnishes the required information to the IRS. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their qualification for an exemption from backup withholding and the procedures for obtaining such an exemption.

Dissenter’s Rights

None of the DGCL, our Charter or our Bylaws provides holders of our Common Stock with dissenters’ or appraisal rights in connection with the Reverse Split Charter Amendment, if the Board elects to proceed with the reverse stock split in one of the approved ratios, or the resulting reverse stock split.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table shows information, as of July 18, 2025, concerning the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock by: (i) each person we know to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of our Common Stock; (ii) each of our current directors; (iii) each of our named executive officers; and (iv) all current directors and executive officers as a group. Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she, or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days.

The beneficial ownership of our Common Stock is based on 170,197,345 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 18, 2025, which consists of 161,906,424 shares of Class A Common Stock and 8,290,921 shares of Class B Common Stock.

Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the table below, and subject to applicable community property laws, the Company believes that all persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to their beneficially owned shares of Common Stock.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Information Statement and other documents referenced herein contain certain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The words “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “goal,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” and similar expressions and variations thereof are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Those statements appear in this Information Statement and the documents referenced herein and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and management that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. More information about the risks we face is described under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”) and any subsequently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Reports”).

This Information Statement also contains statements that are based on the Board’s and management’s current expectations and beliefs, including statements about the action to be taken by the Board in response to the stockholder approval of Action No. 1, the manner in which the Reverse Split Charter Amendment will be effected, the timing of the reverse stock split, and the expected effects of the reverse stock split, if implemented.

Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur or may not occur within the anticipated time frame and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise.
