EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 3 (this “Schedule 13D Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 29, 2021, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on December 28, 2022 and Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on January 5, 2023 (as amended by this Schedule 13D Amendment, the “Schedule 13D”) and is being filed on behalf of Osmium Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Osmium Partners”), Osmium Capital, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund I”), Osmium Capital II, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund II”), Osmium Spartan, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund III”), Osmium Diamond, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund IV” and together with Fund I, Fund II and Fund III, the “Funds”) and John H. Lewis, the controlling member of Osmium Partners (together with Osmium Partners and the Funds, the “Reporting Persons”), with respect to American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each representing 0.1 ordinary shares, €1.00 nominal value per share (“Ordinary Shares”), of Spark Networks SE, a German corporation (the “Issuer”)

 

The Reporting Persons are filing this Schedule 13D Amendment to report changes in the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of ADSs since the date of the last amendment of the Schedule 13D.

 

Other than as set forth below, all Items in the Schedule 13D are materially unchanged. Capitalized terms used in this Schedule 13D Amendment which are not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

 

 

 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

 

Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership with respect to any ADSs other than those owned directly and of record by such Reporting Person.

 

(b) The information contained in Item 5(a) and lines 7 to 11 and 13 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D Amendment is incorporated herein by reference. Osmium Partners and Mr. Lewis may be deemed to share with the Funds (and not with any third party) the power to vote or direct the vote of and to dispose or direct the disposition of the ADSs directly owned by the Funds.

 

 

 

 

(d) None.

 

(e) Not applicable.
