This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) amends the statement on Schedule 13D (the “Original Schedule 13D” and, as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on July 31, 2017, by Mr. Vincent Viola, Virtu Employee Holdco LLC (“Employee Holdco”), TJMT Holdings LLC (“TJMT”), Mr. Michael T. Viola and Mrs. Teresa Viola (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”), relating to the Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of Virtu Financial, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).
Items 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
Item 3. Source or Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
As described in Item 5(c) of this Amendment, on May 6, 2020, TJMT entered into that certain Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Anthony Manganiello (the “Seller”) to acquire at the Closing (as defined below) all of Seller’s 216,680 non-voting common interest units of Virtu Financial LLC (“Virtu Financial Units”) and an equal number of shares of the Issuer’s Class C common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class C Common Stock”), for a per share purchase price to be agreed upon at or prior to Closing (as defined below), which amount shall not be less than the average of the volume weighted average prices for shares of the Class A Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days following the date on which the Issuer publicly announces its earnings results for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020, currently expected to occur on May 7, 2020. The aggregate purchase price for the securities acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (the “Acquired Shares”) will be payable in immediately available funds at the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Closing”), which amount will be funded by TJMT’s cash on hand.
No part of the purchase price of the transactions reported by this Amendment was represented by funds or other consideration borrowed or otherwise obtained for the purpose of acquiring, holding, trading or voting the securities.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
As described in Item 5(c) of this Amendment, on May 6, 2020, TJMT entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Seller to acquire at the Closing the Acquired Shares.
Following the acquisition, TJMT continues to beneficially own the majority of the voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the Issuer as a result of holding shares of the Issuer’s Class D common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class D Common Stock”) and therefore can approve or disapprove any matter requiring a majority vote of the Issuer’s stockholders. As a result of the Reporting Persons’ stock ownership, Mr. Vincent Viola’s positions as Chairman Emeritus and a member of the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) and Mr. Michael T. Viola’s position as a member of the Board, the Reporting Persons continue to be in a position to influence the management and policies of the Issuer and to influence the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval.
