Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

On June 14, 2024, TI IV JJill Holdings, LP (“TI IV”) sold 1,300,000 shares of Common Stock at a public offering price of $31.00 per share (the “Offering”), pursuant to that certain Underwriting Agreement by and among the Issuer, TI IV and Jefferies LLC, William Blair & Company, L.L.C. and TD Securities (USA) LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriting Agreement”).

The information contained on the cover pages of this Statement is incorporated by reference.

(a) In the aggregate, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own, as of the date on the cover page to this Statement, an aggregate of 7,339,887 shares of Common Stock, including 4,021,444 shares of Common Stock and 3,318,443 shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. Percentage ownership is based on (i) 11,747,748 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of June 3, 2024 as reported by the Issuer in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended May 4, 2024 filed with the SEC on June 7, 2024 and (ii) an additional 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued by the Issuer on, as reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 14, 2024 and (iii) 3,318,443 shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon exercise of warrants held by the Reporting Persons.

(b) Each Reporting Person, as a member of a “group” with the other Reporting Persons for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, may be deemed to have shared voting, disposition and investment power with respect to the shares of Common Stock reported herein.

(c) Other than the Offering, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transaction involving the Common Stock in the 60 days prior to filing this Statement.

(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no person other than the Reporting Persons has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons identified in this Item 5.

(e) Not applicable.
