SCHEDULE 13D/A

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this Amendment) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed on August 2, 2021 (the Schedule 13D) with respect to shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (Class A Common Stock), of Ryan Specialty Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Issuer). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at Two Prudential Plaza, 180 N. Stetson Avenue, Suite 4600, Chicago, IL 60601.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

The response set forth in Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

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

The Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons was originally acquired and previously reported on the Schedule 13D by the Reporting Persons on August 2, 2021. None of the Reporting Persons has acquired or disposed of any Class A Common Stock since August 2, 2021 and this Amendment to the Schedule 13D is being filed on the basis of the facts and circumstances described under Item 4 of this Amendment, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The response set forth in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in its entirety, and is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On May 22, 2023, Onex RSG LP and Onex RSG Holdings LP (the Selling Reporting Persons) entered into an underwriting agreement (the Underwriting Agreement) with Barclays Capital Inc., as the underwriter listed in Schedule I thereto (the Underwriter), relating to an underwritten secondary public offering of 7,961,750 shares of Class A Common Stock by Onex RSG LP and 348,341 shares of Class A Common Stock by Onex RSG Holdings LP at a price of $43.45 per share of Class A Common Stock (the Onex Offering). The Selling Reporting Persons expect total proceeds from the Onex Offering of $361,073,453.95, before deducting offering expenses.

The Onex Offering was made pursuant to an automatic shelf registration statement filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 22, 2023 and is anticipated to close on May 25, 2023. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Selling Reporting Persons agreed to customary lock-up provisions in respect of shares of the Issuers Common Stock for a period of 60 days starting from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, except as the Underwriter permits. The preceding description of the Underwriting Agreement is only a summary and is qualified by reference to the Underwriting Agreement. See Item 7.
