Item 4. Ownership
The responses to Items 5-11 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13G are incorporated herein by reference.
As of December 31, 2019, the Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own 6,250,000 shares of the Issuer’s Class B Ordinary Shares, representing 20.0% of the total Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. The Class B Ordinary Shares are automatically convertible into Issuer’s Class A Ordinary Shares at the time of the Issuer’s initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, as more fully described under the heading “Description of Securities – Founders Shares” in the Issuer’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-232734).
Messrs. Scott Gordon, William Healy, Gregory Gentile and Mohammed Grimeh are the four managers of the Reporting Person’s board of managers. Any action by the Reporting Person with respect to Silver Spike Acquisition Corp. or the shares owned by the Reporting Person, including voting and dispositive decisions, requires a majority vote of the managers of the board of managers. Under the so-called “rule of three,” because voting and dispositive decisions are made by a majority of the Reporting Person’s managers, none of the managers of the Reporting Person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of the Reporting Person’s securities, even those in which they hold a pecuniary interest. Accordingly, none of Messrs. Scott Gordon, William Healy, Gregory Gentile and Mohammed Grimeh is deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of the shares of the Issuer held by the Reporting Person.
