This Statement is being filed by Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (“MUFG”). The address of the principal business and principal office of MUFG is 7-1 Marunouchi 2-chome, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100-8330, Japan.

MUFG is a bank holding company and joint stock company (kabushiki kaisha) incorporated in Japan under the Commercial Code of Japan, and is one of the world’s leading financial groups. MUFG’s services include commercial banking, trust banking, securities, credit cards, consumer finance, asset management and leasing.

The name, business address, present principal occupation or employment, name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted and citizenship of each of the directors and executive officers of MUFG are set forth on Annex A hereto.

During the last five years, neither MUFG nor any of its directors nor executive officers has been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

In addition to the 377,085,167 shares of Common Stock held by MUFG directly, as of October 6, 2023, certain affiliates of MUFG held in the aggregate 1,877,643 shares of Common Stock (the “Managed Shares”) solely in a fiduciary capacity as the trustee of trust accounts or as the manager of investment funds, other investment vehicles and managed accounts. MUFG disclaims beneficial ownership of the Managed Shares, and the inclusion of the Managed Shares in this Amendment shall not be construed as an admission that MUFG is, for purposes of Sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act, the beneficial owner of such shares.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

On October 13, 2023, MUFG and the Company entered into the Seventh Amendment to the Investor Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment to Investor Agreement”) to amend the standstill and preemptive right provisions in the Amended Investor Agreement previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D.

The Amended Investor Agreement provided that the standstill provisions will terminate, unless extended, upon the earlier of (a) October 13, 2023 or (b) the date on which MUFG’s Economic Interest Percentage is less than 10%. The Seventh Amendment to Investor Agreement extended this period so that the standstill provisions will terminate, unless extended, upon the earlier of April 13, 2026 or (b) the date on which MUFG’s Economic Interest Percentage is less than 10%. The Amended Investor Agreement provided that the expiration date of the preemptive rights was October 13, 2023. The Seventh Amendment to Investor Agreement extended this expiration date to April 13, 2026.

The Seventh Amendment to Investor Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.29 to this Amendment and is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) Rows (7) through (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Amendment are hereby incorporated by reference. For purposes of calculating the percentages set forth on the cover pages of this Amendment, the number of shares outstanding is assumed to be 1,656,966,580 (which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of July 31, 2023, as reported by the Company in their Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2023 filed on August 3, 2023).

As of October 6, 2023, MUFG beneficially owns 377,085,167 shares of Common Stock.

In addition, MUFG may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Managed Shares. MUFG disclaims beneficial ownership of the Managed Shares, and the inclusion of the Managed Shares in this Amendment shall not be construed as an admission that MUFG is, for purposes of Sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act, the beneficial owner of such shares.

The shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by MUFG (if MUFG is deemed to have beneficial ownership over the Managed Shares) represent approximately 22.87% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(b) Subject to the right of clients to withdraw their assets, including the Managed Shares managed by MUFG’s affiliates, MUFG has the sole power to vote or direct the vote and to dispose or to direct the disposition of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it as indicated in rows (7) through (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Amendment.

(c) Neither MUFG nor, to its knowledge, any of its directors or executive officers has engaged in any transactions in shares of Common Stock in the past 60 days except transactions in a fiduciary capacity as described under Item 3.

(d) No other person is known by MUFG to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any shares of the Company’s securities beneficially owned by MUFG, except that, if MUFG is deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Managed Shares, dividends and the proceeds from the sale of Managed Shares will be the property of the customers for whom such Managed Shares are managed.

(e) Not applicable.
