This Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 4”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on December 24, 2019 (the “Original Schedule 13D”, and as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on March 31, 2020, Amendment No. 2 filed on June 1, 2020 and Amendment No. 3 filed on November 26, 2024, the “Schedule 13D”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), relating to the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Voting Common Stock”), of CF Bankshares Inc. (formerly known as Central Federal Corporation) (the “Issuer” or the “Company”). Unless specifically amended hereby, the disclosures set forth in the Schedule 13D remain unchanged. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 4 that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings attributed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

 

Between November 25, 2024 and November 29, 2024 (inclusive), Castle Creek Capital Partners VII, LP (“Fund VII”) sold an aggregate of 53,963 shares of Voting Common Stock for proceeds of $1,502,812.32, which represents an amount net of commissions and fees, in various open-market transactions.

Castle Creek Capital VII LLC (3)   523,253    9.9%   0    523,253    0    523,253 

 

(1)Includes (i) the 363,751 shares of Voting Common Stock held by Fund VII and (ii) the maximum number of shares (i.e., 159,502 shares) of Voting Common Stock issuable to Fund VII and its affiliates upon conversion of the Non-Voting Common Stock held by Fund VII taking into consideration the Ownership Cap. Excludes (i) 1,024,498 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock and (ii) 160 shares of the Company’s non-voting convertible, perpetual Series D preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series D Preferred Stock”). Since Fund VII does not presently, and will not within the next 60 days, have the right to acquire Voting Common Stock in respect of such Non-Voting Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (due in part to the Ownership Cap), those underlying shares are not included in the amount reported herein.

 

(2)This calculation is based on 5,285,387 shares of Voting Common Stock of the Company outstanding, which was calculated based on (i) 5,125,885 shares of Voting Common Stock outstanding as of November 8, 2024, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 13, 2024, and (ii) an additional 159,502 shares of Voting Common Stock that would be issued to Fund VII upon conversion of the maximum number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock permitted in light of the Ownership Cap.

 

(3)CCC VII disclaims beneficial ownership of the Voting Common Stock beneficially owned by Fund VII, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.

 

Item 5(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Fund VII has engaged in the following open market, broker-assisted transactions with respect to the Voting Common Stock during the last 60 days: (i) 29,510 shares of Voting Common Stock sold on November 25, 2024 at a weighted average price of $27.67 per share (in multiple open market, broker-assisted transactions ranging from $27.50 to $28.10, inclusive); (ii) 12,574 shares of Voting Common Stock sold on November 26, 2024 at a weighted average price of $27.89 per share (in multiple open market, broker-assisted transactions ranging from $27.80 to $28.00, inclusive); (iii) 8,279 shares of Voting Common Stock sold on November 27, 2024 at a weighted average price of $28.40 per share (in multiple open market, broker-assisted transactions ranging from $28.00 to $28.75, inclusive); and (iv) 3,600 shares of Voting Common Stock sold on November 29, 2024 at a weighted average price of $28.39 per share (in multiple open market, broker-assisted transactions ranging from $28.22 to $28.58, inclusive).
