Shares that may be granted thereunder by 1,600,000 (as amended and restated, the “Plan”).
This registration statement is being filed in accordance with the requirements of Form S-8 under the U.S. Securities Act of
1933, as amended, to register an aggregate of additional 1,600,000 Common Shares that are issued and issuable pursuant to the Plan.
The Company previously filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-258992) on August 20, 2021 to
register an aggregate of 432,988 Class A common shares that were issuable pursuant to the Plan. The additional shares being registered in this registration statement on Form S-8 are of the same class as securities covered by the registration
statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-258992) filed on August 20, 2021, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in accordance with General Instruction E to Form S-8, to the extent not otherwise amended or superseded by the
content of this registration statement. Upon the effectiveness of this registration statement, an aggregate of 2,032,988 Class A common shares will be registered for issuance from time to time under the Plan.
Pursuant to Rule 429 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, a prospectus relating to this registration statement is
a combined prospectus relating also to the registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-258992) filed on August 20, 2021. In addition, this registration statement, which is a new registration
statement, also constitutes a post-effective amendment to the registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-258992).
The combined Section 10(a) prospectus for the Plan updates, among other things, certain information regarding the Plan,
including the increase in the number of Common Shares available for grant under the Plan by 1,600,000 shares.
Under cover of this registration statement on Form S-8 is a combined reoffer prospectus prepared in accordance with Part I
of Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933 (in accordance with Section C of the General Instructions to Form S-8). The reoffer prospectus may be used for reoffers and resales of up to an aggregate of 2,290,873 "restricted securities" and/or
"control securities" (as such terms are defined in Form S-8) issued or to be issued pursuant to the 2019 Plan (and the Company’s prior equity incentive plans, namely the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and 2008 Equity Incentive Plan) on a
continuous or delayed basis in the future. The combined reoffer prospectus updates, among other things, certain information regarding the ownership of Common Shares by the selling stockholders and the number of Common Shares available for resale by
each selling stockholder.

Reoffer Prospectus
2,290,873 Shares
Global Ship Lease, Inc.
This reoffer prospectus ("Reoffer Prospectus") relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the
selling stockholders named in this Reoffer Prospectus (the "selling securityholders"), or their permitted transferees, of up to 2,290,873 shares (the "Shares") of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share
("Common Stock"), of Global Ship Lease, Inc. This Reoffer Prospectus covers the Shares acquired by or issuable to the selling securityholders pursuant to awards granted or assumed by Global Ship Lease, Inc. to the selling securityholders under the
Global Ship Lease, Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "2019 Plan"), the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 Plan"), and the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2008 Plan," together with the 2019 Plan and the 2015 Plan, the
"Plans") non-qualified options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, dividend equivalents, cash awards, unrestricted stock and other equity-based or equity-related awards. We are not offering any of the Shares and will not receive any
proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the selling securityholders made hereunder. The selling securityholders are certain of our officers, directors, employees, consultants, and advisors, certain of whom may be deemed to be an "affiliate" of our
company (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")).
Subject to the satisfaction of any conditions to vesting of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby
pursuant to the terms of the relevant award agreements, the selling securityholders may sell the Shares described in this Reoffer Prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices, including sales in the open market, sales in negotiated
transactions, and sales by a combination of these methods. The selling securityholders may sell any, all, or none of the Shares and we do not know when or in what amount the selling securityholders may sell their Shares hereunder following the
effective date of this registration statement. The price at which any of the Shares may be sold, and the commissions, if any, paid in connection with any such sale, are unknown and may vary from transaction to transaction. The Shares may be sold at
the market price of the Common Stock at the time of a sale, at prices relating to the market price over a period of time, or at prices negotiated with the buyers of Shares. The Shares may be sold through underwriters or dealers which the selling
securityholders may select. If underwriters or dealers are used to sell the Shares, we will name them and describe their compensation in a prospectus supplement. We provide more information about how the selling securityholders may sell their Shares
in the section titled "Plan of Distribution." The selling securityholders will bear all sales commissions and similar expenses. Any other expenses incurred by us in connection with the registration and
offering that are not borne by the selling securityholders will be borne by us.
Our Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE under the symbol "GSL." On April 1,
2022, the last quoted sale price for our Common Stock as reported on the NYSE was $28.95.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) may take the view that, under certain
circumstances, the selling securityholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling securityholders in the distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act. Commissions,
discounts or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agent may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the Securities Act. See the section titled "Plan of Distribution."
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before buying any
securities, you should carefully read the discussion of the risks of investing in our securities in the section titled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 5 of this Reoffer Prospectus.
Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or
determined if this Reoffer Prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The date of this Reoffer Prospectus is April 4, 2022.

You should rely only on the information contained in this Reoffer Prospectus. We have not authorized any other person to provide you with
information that is different from that contained in this Reoffer Prospectus. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. We take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the
reliability of, any other information that others may give you. The selling securityholders are offering to sell and seeking offers to buy these securities only in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted. You should assume that the
information contained in this Reoffer Prospectus is accurate only as of the date of this Reoffer Prospectus, regardless of the time of delivery of this Reoffer Prospectus or of any sale of our Shares. Our business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects may have changed since that date. We are not making an offer of any Shares in any jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or
forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Words or phrases such as "anticipate,"
"believe," "continue," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "ongoing," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "will" or similar words or phrases, or the negatives of those words or phrases, may identify forward-looking statements, but the
absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Examples of forward-looking statements in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our disclosure concerning our operations, cash
flows, financial position, dividend policy, the anticipated benefits of strategic acquisitions, and the likelihood of success in acquiring additional vessels to expand our business.
Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this prospectus and in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the
year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Commission on March 24, 2022, as updated by annual, quarterly and other reports and documents we file with the Commission after the date of this prospectus and that are incorporated by reference herein,
including, without limitation, in the sections entitled "Business Overview," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Operations," and "Dividend Policy."
Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on potentially inaccurate
assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements for many reasons,
including the factors described in "Risk Factors" in this prospectus. The risks described under "Risk Factors" are not exhaustive. Other sections of this prospectus describe additional factors that could adversely affect our results of operations,
financial condition, liquidity and the development of the industries in which we operate. New risks can emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such risks, nor can we assess the impact of all such risks on our business
or the extent to which any risks, or combination of risks and other factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not unduly rely on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events after the date of this prospectus or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events. You should, however, review the factors and risks we describe in the reports we will file from time to time with the Commission after the date of this prospectus.
PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This section summarizes some of the information that is contained later in this prospectus or in other
documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus. This summary may not contain all of the information that may be important to you. As an investor or prospective investor, you should review carefully the risk factors and the more detailed
information that appears later in this prospectus or is contained in the documents that we incorporate by reference into this prospectus.

In many instances charterers have the option to further extend a charter beyond the nominal latest expiry date by the amount of time that the vessel was
off hire during the course of that charter. This additional charter time (“Offhire Extension”) is computed at the end of the initially contracted charter period. The Latest Charter Expiry Dates shown in this table have been adjusted to
reflect offhire accrued up to the date of issuance of this release plus estimated offhire scheduled to occur during the remaining lifetimes of the respective charters. However, as actual offhire can only be calculated at the end of each
charter, in some cases actual Offhire Extensions – if invoked by charterers - may exceed the Latest Charter Expiry Dates indicated.

Employment of Our Fleet
We employ the ships in our fleet on time charters. A time charter is a contract for the use of a ship for a fixed period
of time at a specified daily rate. Under a time charter, as the ship owner, we provide and bear the cost of crew, lubricating oil, and all maintenance and other services related to the ship's operation, the cost of which is included in the daily
charter rate. We are also responsible for insuring our interests in the ship and liabilities as owner arising from its use. The charterer is responsible for substantially all of the ship's voyage costs, such as fuel (bunker) costs, canal fees, port
expenses, cargo handling costs and extra war risk insurance costs if the ship is deployed outside normal insurance limits and enters areas which are specified by the insurance underwriters as being subject to additional premiums.
The initial term for a time charter commences on the ship's delivery to the charterer. Time charter agreements may
include options, in favor of the owner or the charterer, to extend the charter on pre-agreed terms. Charters may be extended on mutually agreed terms, or the ship will be re-delivered by the charterer at the end of the charter period, within a
pre-agreed time window (to allow for operational flexibility), in which case we would seek alternate employment with another charterer.
Our charters are with a number of different charterers and expire on different dates over a period of time. We believe
the diversified charterer base reduces counterparty risk and the staggered expirations of our charters reduces our exposure to re-chartering risk and may mitigate the impact of the cyclical nature of the container shipping industry.
Management of our Ships
Technomar provides all day-to-day technical ship management services for all but six of our ships. A separate third-party
technical manager provides such management on the six other ships. All of our ships are commercially managed by Conchart pursuant to commercial management agreements. For more information regarding management of our ships, please see "Item 4.
Information on the Company-B. Business Overview-Ship Management" in our 2021 Annual Report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

securities, you should carefully consider all of the information included in this prospectus, the risk factors and all of the other information included in any prospectus supplement and the documents that have been incorporated by reference in this
prospectus and any prospectus supplement, including those in "Item 3.D. Risk Factors" in our 2021 Annual Report, filed with the Commission on March 24, 2022, as updated by annual, quarterly and other reports and documents we file with the Commission

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
We are registering for resale the Shares covered by this Reoffer Prospectus to permit the selling securityholders

Information contained in this Reoffer Prospectus including, without limitation, under the heading “selling securityholders” should not be inferred as representative of a current intention to sell any or all of the Shares listed herein. There can be
no assurance that any or all of the Shares listed herein will be sold by the selling securityholders or the timing thereof.

In computing the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed to be outstanding
all shares of Common Stock subject to stock options, restricted stock units or other derivative securities held by that person that are exercisable, vested or convertible as of April 4, 2022 or that will become exercisable, vested or
convertible within 60 days after April 4, 2022, and based on 36,911,395 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of April 4, 2022.
|
|

|
The numbers of shares of Common Stock reflect all shares of Common Stock acquired or issuable to a person pursuant to applicable grants previously made
under the Plans irrespective of whether such grants are exercisable, vested or convertible as of April 4, 2022 or will become exercisable, vested or convertible within 60 days after April 4, 2022.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are registering the Shares covered by this Reoffer Prospectus to permit the selling securityholders to conduct public
secondary trading of the Shares from time to time after the date of this Reoffer Prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares offered by this Reoffer Prospectus. The aggregate proceeds to the selling securityholders
from the sale of the Shares will be the purchase price of the Shares less any discounts and commissions. We will not pay any brokers' or underwriters' discounts and commissions in connection with the registration and sale of the Shares covered by
this Reoffer Prospectus. The selling securityholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their respective agents, to reject, any proposed purchases of the Shares to be made directly or through agents.
The Shares offered by this Reoffer Prospectus may be sold from time to time to purchasers:
|
•
|
directly by the selling securityholders;
|
|
|
•
|
through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, commissions or agent's commissions from the selling
securityholders or the purchasers of the Shares; or
|
|
|
•
|
through a combination of any of these methods of sale.
|
Any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who participate in the sale or distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be
"underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act. As a result, any discounts, commissions or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agents who are deemed to be underwriters will be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions
under the Securities Act. Underwriters are subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. We will make copies of this Reoffer
Prospectus available to the selling securityholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between the selling
securityholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of the Shares by the selling securityholders. The Shares may be sold in one or more transactions at:
|
•
|
fixed prices;
|
|
|
•
|
prevailing market prices at the time of sale;
|
|
|
•
|
prices related to such prevailing market prices;
|
|
|
•
|
varying prices determined at the time of sale; or
|
|
|
•
|
negotiated prices.
|
These sales may be effected in one or more transactions:
|
•
|
on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the Shares may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, including Nasdaq;
|
|
|
•
|
in the over-the-counter market;
|
|
|
•
|
in transactions otherwise than on such exchanges or services or in the over-the-counter market;
|
|
|
•
|
through trading plans entered into by the selling securityholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act that are in place at the time of an
offering pursuant to this Reoffer Prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans;
|
|
|
•
|
any other method permitted by applicable law; or
|
|
|
•
|
through any combination of the foregoing.
|
These transactions may include block transactions or crosses. Crosses are transactions in which the same broker acts as an
agent on both sides of the trade.
At the time a particular offering of the Shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which
will set forth the name of the selling securityholders, the aggregate amount of Shares being offered and the terms of the offering, including, to the extent required, (1) the name or names of any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, (2) any
discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling securityholders and (3) any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed to be paid to broker-dealers.
The selling securityholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner, and size
of each resale or other transfer. There can be no assurance that the selling securityholders will sell any or all of the Shares under this Reoffer Prospectus. Further, we cannot assure you that the selling securityholders will not transfer,
distribute, devise or gift the Shares by other means not described in this Reoffer Prospectus. In addition, any Shares covered by this Reoffer Prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather
than under this Reoffer Prospectus. The Shares may be sold in some states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an
exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with.
The selling securityholders and any other person participating in the sale of the Shares will be subject to the Exchange
Act. The Exchange Act rules include, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the Shares by the selling securityholders and any other person. In addition, Regulation M may restrict the ability of
any person engaged in the distribution of the Shares to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular securities being distributed. This may affect the marketability of the Shares and the ability of any person or entity to engage
in market-making activities with respect to the Shares. Once sold under the registration statement of which this Reoffer Prospectus forms a part, the shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the securities offered by this prospectus and certain other legal matters with respect to the laws of the
Republic of the Marshall Islands and with respect to matters of U.S. law will be passed upon for us by our counsel on matters of U.S. and Marshall Islands law, Seward & Kissel LLP.

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that the Company shall indemnify its directors and
officers to the fullest extent authorized by law. The Company is also expressly authorized to advance expenses to the fullest extent authorized by law, to pay reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys' fees (including expenses) in connection with the
enforcement of rights to the indemnification granted thereunder, and to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the Company or serving in such capacity in another company at the request of the
Company against some liabilities.
Section 60 of the Republic of the Marshall Islands' Business Corporations Act ("Section 60") provides that a corporation
shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or
in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit
or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of no contest, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonable believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
Under Section 60, a corporation shall also have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or in connection with the defense
or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or
matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.
To the extent that a director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or in the defense of a claim, issue or matter therein, Section 60 dictates that he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
therewith. Additionally, expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized by the board of directors in the specific case
upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in Section 60. Such indemnification and
advancement of expenses shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholder or disinterested directors or otherwise, both
as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, Section 60 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or
ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
Under Section 60, a corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a
director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in such capacity whether or not the corporation would have the power
to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of such section.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.

ii.
|
to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration
Statement; and
|
|
iii.
|
to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in this Registration Statement.
|
provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement.
|
(2)
|
that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and
|
|
|
(3)
|
to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
|
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Company certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of
the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in London, United Kingdom, on April 4, 2022.
