Please disclose the total economic value of the payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement.

July 21, 2021 Page 2 offering in the IPO. The discussion of the Tax Receivable Agreement and the redirection of cash flows to the pre-IPO owners should be given more prominence in your prospectus than is currently present. While the current disclosure is descriptive, the Agreement is a key financial arrangement that will materially impact your liquidity and should be featured as a principal topic in the prospectus.
