Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D (the “Schedule”) filed on February 17, 2021 by Joshua M. Hare, M.D., relating to the ownership of shares of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of Longeveron Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The purpose of this Amendment is solely to correct a typographical and resulting computational error in the Schedule related to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock owned by Dr. Hare. Specifically, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchased by Dr. Hare in the Issuer’s initial public offering on February 17, 2021 was 10,000, not 100,000 as previously reported on the Schedule. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Schedule otherwise remains unmodified. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 of the Schedule is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and replaced by the following:
Dr. Hare purchased 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in the Issuer’s initial public offering on February 17, 2021 and 3,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in the open market on February 12, 2021 using personal funds. The 53,514 shares of Class A Common Stock owned by JMH MD Holdings, LLC (“JMH MD Holdings”) were acquired from the Issuer as part of the Issuer’s conversion on February 11, 2021 from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware corporation in connection with its initial public offering (the “Corporate Conversion”), in exchange for Series C Common Units of the Issuer previously held by JMH MD Holdings. The Series C Units previously held by JMH MD Holdings were issued to JMH MD Holdings as partial consideration for a license for the use of certain technology.
The 7,772,902 shares of the Issuer’s Class B common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Class B Common Stock”) owned directly by Dr. Hare were acquired from the Issuer as a part of the Corporate Conversion, in exchange for Series A Common Units of the Issuer previously held by Dr. Hare. The Series A Common Units previously held by Dr. Hare were issued to Dr. Hare in exchange for contributions of intellectual property in connection with the Issuer’s original formation.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 of the Schedule is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and replaced by the following:
(a) - (b) Dr. Hare has the sole voting and dispositive power over 66,514 shares of Class A Common Stock (2.04% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock), which includes 53,514 shares owned by JMH MD Holdings, where Dr. Hare is the managing member, and for which Dr. Hare disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest. Dr. Hare has the sole voting and dispositive power over 7,772,902 shares of Class B Common Stock which are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock. The Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock over which Dr. Hare has sole voting and dispositive power represent 41.35% of the total shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding.
The above calculations are based upon 3,254,077 shares of Class A Common Stock and 15,702,834 shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding, as reported on the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2021.
(c) The only transactions in the Class A Common Stock by Dr. Hare during the last 60 days were the receipt of shares as part of the Corporate Conversion in exchange for previously held Series A Units and Series C Units of the Company (reference is made to Item 3 above), the purchase of 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in the Issuer’s initial public offering on February 17, 2021 at the offering price of $10.00 per share, and the purchase in the open market on February 12, 2021 of 2,000 shares at $10.00 per share and 1,000 shares at $8.232 per share, all using personal funds.
(d) - (e) N/A
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
The information set forth, or incorporated by reference, in Items 3, 4 and 5 is incorporated by reference to this Item 6. Except as otherwise described in this Schedule, Dr. Hare does not have any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with any persons with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to the transfer or voting of any securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option agreements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
