EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 3”) is filed to amend the Schedule 13D (the “Initial Schedule 13D”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 28, 2022 by Kyle Michael Wool and Soo Yu, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed on July 6, 2023 (“Amendment No. 1”), as amended by Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed on December 28, 2023 (“Amendment No. 2” and collectively with the Initial Schedule 13D and Amendment No. 1, the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 3 supplements and amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein. Except as amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 3, the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

 

Paragraphs (a) through (c) of Item 2 of the Schedule 13D are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following:

 

(a) This statement on Schedule 13D is being filed jointly by Kyle Michael Wool and Soo Yu as individuals, each of whom is referred to herein, together, as the “Reporting Persons.” The Reporting Persons are husband and wife.

 

(b) The principal business address of the Reporting Persons is c/o Dominari Holdings Inc., 725 5th Avenue, 22nd Floor, New York, New York 10022.

 

(c) Mr. Wool is President of the Issuer, Chief Executive Officer of Dominari Financial, Inc. (the Issuer’s financial services subsidiary) and Chief Executive Officer of Dominari Securities LLC (the Issuer’s broker-dealer subsidiary) (“Dominari Securities”). Each of Mr. Wool and Ms. Yu also serve as a director on the board of directors of the Issuer. On April 3, 2023, Ms. Yu entered into an Employment Agreement with Dominari Securities, as amended by the Amendment to Employment Agreement, dated as of April 19, 2023 (the “Employment Agreement”), to serve, initially, as a special projects manager and a registered brokerage representative of Dominari Securities, and she was subsequently promoted to Chief Operating Officer of Dominari Securities.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

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

 

  On June 11, 2024, Mr. Wool was granted 154,559 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer by the Compensation Committee of the Issuer’s board of directors.

 

  Since Amendment No. 2 was filed on December 28, 2023, there was a net increase of (a) shares of Common Stock over which Ms. Yu has sole voting and dispositive power due to the purchase in open market transactions of an aggregate of 13,750 shares of Common Stock held by Ms. Yu’s pension; and (b) shares of Common Stock over which Mr. Wool has sole voting and dispositive power due to the purchase in open market transactions of an aggregate of 23,750 shares of Common Stock held by Mr. Wool’s SEP-IRA.

Pursuant to her Employment Agreement, Ms. Yu is entitled to receive a base salary of $150,000 per year and a 60% commission on the gross revenue she generates at Dominari Securities. The foregoing description of the Employment Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Employment Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.01 and incorporated herein by reference.

SCHEDULE 13D

 

CUSIP No. 0088753043

 

The transaction giving rise to the filing of this Amendment No. 3 is the grant to Mr. Wool of 154,559 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer by the Compensation Committee of the Issuer’s board of directors.

 

Except as disclosed in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have no current plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the events described in Items (a) through (j) of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a)-(b)  The Reporting Persons have shared voting and dispositive power over 1,603,467 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as a result of their status as husband and wife.
