Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 10 (“Amendment No. 10”) to Schedule 13D (this “Schedule 13D”) is filed by Anthony Hsieh (the “Reporting Person”) and relates to the beneficial ownership of certain shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of loanDepot, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“loanDepot” or the “Issuer”). Amendment No. 10 amends the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Person on November 16, 2021, as amended on April 26, 2022, May 6, 2022, January 10, 2023, February 7, 2023, April 6, 2023, May 28, 2024, August 20, 2024, September 3, 2024 and September 10, 2024 (as amended prior to the date hereof, the “Original Filing,” and as amended by this Amendment No. 10, the “Statement”). Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 10 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Original Filing. Capitalized terms used but not defined have the meaning given them in the Original Filing.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

(a), (b) The information relating to the beneficial ownership of the Class A Common Stock by the Reporting Person set forth in Rows 7 through 13 of the cover page hereto and the related footnotes are incorporated by reference herein and is as of the date hereof. Such information assumes there are 88,134,396 shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock outstanding on August 5, 2024 as reported by the Issuer in its Annual Report on Form 10-Q for the three-months ended June 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on August 8, 2024. The Reporting Person also owns 61,763 unvested restricted stock units of the Issuer. By virtue of the relationship among the Reporting Person and the Class C Stockholders (as defined in the Original Filing), the Reporting Person may be deemed to share the power to vote or direct the vote and to share the power to dispose of or direct the disposition of the shares of Class A Common Stock as set forth in rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages of this Statement. The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that such individual is, for the purpose of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Statement. Certain of the shares obtainable upon exchange of Class C Common Stock are required to be delivered to third parties and would not be retained by the Reporting Person upon exchange.

The Reporting Person undertakes to provide the Issuer, any security holder of the issuer, or the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, upon request, specific trade amounts and pricing at which the respective transactions were effected.
