Item 3 · On December 27, 2023, Plaintiff Jeffrey Edelman (“Plaintiff”), a purported stockholder of ours, filed a putative class action and stockholder derivative complaint (the “Complaint”) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court”) against all of our directors, a former director, and Penske Corporation (“PC”) (together, the “Defendants”) under the caption Edelman v. Penske, et al., C.A. No. 2023-1291-JTL (the “Action”). The claims in the Complaint related to our securities repurchase programs in 2021, 2022, and 2023. Among other allegations, the Plaintiff claimed that Board members breached their fiduciary duties in approving these securities repurchase programs and that PC and Roger S. Penske as controllers of the Company also breached their fiduciary duties because the repurchase programs allegedly permitted the controllers to attain majority voting control of the Company without paying a control premium. The Defendants believe that the allegations of the Complaint were meritless, deny those allegations, and deny that any violation of applicable law has occurred. However, solely to minimize expenses and distraction and to avoid the uncertainty of any litigation, we e… Item 9A · disclosure controls · Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. | ||||||

5 of 5 annual reports on record have their filing text cached on this host; the rest are listed with their EDGAR link and no extraction, because this surface never fetches from SEC on a page load.
- Item 3 and Item 9A are located in the filing HTML already cached on this host and read with the same line-anchored item matcher and largest-gap body disambiguation the filing-narrative pass uses for Item 1A and Item 7 — no fetch, no model, no summarization.
- A heading is accepted as a section only when it is not a table-of-contents row (a trailing page number), not a quoted reference in prose, and names its own section; the span must then clear a per-item length band and carry readable text after the heading. Anything that fails a gate is served as 'not extracted' with the reason — never as a default value.
- An effectiveness conclusion is read only from a sentence that names its own control set (disclosure controls and procedures, or internal control over financial reporting) and states an outcome. Conditional sentences — the standard limitations paragraph and forward-looking remediation language — are excluded, because they are hypotheses rather than conclusions.
- When a filing's own sentences disagree — an effective conclusion beside an unremediated material-weakness disclosure, or two conclusions of opposite sign — no verdict is asserted. A wrong 'controls were effective' reading is worse than no reading.
- Every verdict is shown beside the verbatim sentence it was read from. The excerpt is the filing's own words, capped at 1,200 characters; the filing itself is one link away.
