Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (this “Form 8-K/A”) is an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K of LM Funding America, Inc. (the “Company”) filed on December 13, 2021 (the “Original Form 8-K”). Following the initial filing of the Original Form 8-K, the Company discovered that the wrong Form 8-K item number was inadvertently identified and tagged in the submission (Item 1.01 rather than Item 5.03). The Company is amending the Original Form 8-K solely to revise the item number that was identified and tagged, and no changes were otherwise made to the disclosure contained within the Original Form 8-K.

 

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On December 10, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of LM Funding America, Inc. (the “Company”) amended the Bylaws of the Company to revise the procedures by which the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) may be adjourned for lack of a quorum (the “Amendment”).  The Amendment allows for adjournment of the Annual Meeting for lack of a quorum by either (i) the person presiding over the Annual Meeting, or (ii) the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote. Concurrent with the adoption of the Amendment, the Board restated the Bylaws to incorporate the Amendment into its Bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”).

The foregoing descriptions of the Amendment and the Restated Bylaws, effective as of December 10, 2021, are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of the Amendment and the Amended and Restated Bylaws, attached hereto as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve risks and uncertainty. Words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” and “project” and other similar words and expressions are intended to signify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and conditions but rather are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Such statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that there can be no assurance actual results or business conditions will not differ materially from those projected or suggested in such forward-looking statements as a result of various risks and uncertainties. Investors should refer to the risks detailed from time to time in the reports the Company files with the SEC, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as well as other filings on Form 10-Q and periodic filings on Form 8-K, for additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated or implied by such forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, unless required by law.
