Explanatory Note

This Schedule 13D/A constitutes Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Schedule 13D (the “Original Schedule 13D”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 20, 2024 by Ginkgo Bioworks, Inc. and Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings, Inc. (together, the “Reporting Persons”), relating to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Bolt Projects Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). Except as set forth herein, the Original Schedule 13D is unmodified and remains in full force and effect as to the Reporting Persons. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Subparagraphs (a), (b), (c) and (e) of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D are amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

(a) – (b)

The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows (7) through (11), and (13) of the cover page of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons listed on Schedule A have any beneficial ownership of the Common Stock.

(c)

Except as described in this Item 5(c), the Reporting Persons nor, to the best of the knowledge of the Reporting Person, any of the persons listed in Schedule A, have not effected any transactions in the Class A Common Stock during the past 60 days. Schedule B sets forth the transactions in the Class A Common Stock that were effected during the past 60 days.

(e)

As of August 28, 2024, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own more than five percent (5%) of the Issuer’s Common Stock. Consequently, this Amendment constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.


SIGNATURE

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
