This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) is jointly filed by and on behalf of the Reporting Person to amend the Schedule 13D related to the shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Spectral AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 27, 2023 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Each capitalized term used and not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Item of the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

Item 2(c) is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

“(c)

The Reporting Person is principally engaged in the practice and administration of health care and serves as a director on the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board of Directors”).”

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

Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“The Reporting Person acquired 6,855 of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer covered by this Statement in multiple open market transactions for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $17,459, including commissions, as further disclosed in Item 5(c) of this Schedule 13D, which is incorporated by reference herein. The source of funds for the purchase of such shares of Common Stock of the Issuer was the personal funds of the Reporting Person.”

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“As disclosed in the Issuer’s press release dated February 12, 2024 (the “Board Appointment and Lock-Up Extension Press Release”), (i) the Board of Directors appointed the Reporting Person to serve as a director on the Board of Directors, effective February 7, 2024, and (ii) the Reporting Person agreed to an additional six-month extension of his current lock-up of his outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The foregoing description of the Board Appointment and Lock-Up Extension Press Release does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Board Appointment and Lock-Up Extension Press Release, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 99.4 to this Schedule 13D.

In addition, the Reporting Person has in the past, and may in the future, engage in discussions with the Issuer’s management, Board of Directors, and/or other shareholders or third parties covering a broad range of subjects, including relative to performance, strategic direction, capital allocation, strategic financing opportunities, potential business combinations or other transactions involving the Issuer, shareholder value, composition of the Board of Directors, and governance and/or ownership of the Issuer. For example, the Reporting Person, together with Erich Spangenberg and ELS 1960 Family, L.P. (“ELS”), intends to propose (i) increasing the number of directors serving on the Board of Directors in order to bring additional skill sets and relationships to the Board of Directors, (ii) creating additional specialized standing committees of the Board of Directors, including, in addition to an executive committee, committees focused on finance, regulatory approvals, technology, and commercialization, (iii) identifying and nominating certain candidates to serve on the Board of Directors in addition to those, at the current time, up to four individuals currently serving on the Board of Directors, (iv) seeking additional distinguished members to serve on the Board of Directors to further support the Issuer, (v) certain changes to the management of the Issuer, (vi) proposing various strategies to address what the Reporting Person believes are illegal “naked short” trading strategies being executed by a fund or funds and enabled by various trading intermediaries, including such fund’s or funds’ prime brokerages, and (vii) exploring strategic options with respect to the ownership of the Issuer, including potential investment by strategic investors and going private transactions.

The Reporting Person intends to review his investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis taking into consideration various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Based

upon such review, the Reporting Person will take such actions in the future as the Reporting Person may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time, which may include further acquisitions of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer or disposal of some or all of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer owned by the Reporting Person or otherwise acquired by the Reporting Person, either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.

Any open market or privately negotiated purchases or sales, acquisition recommendations or proposals or other transactions concerning the Issuer may be made at any time without prior notice. Any alternative may depend upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices of the securities, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer and general industry conditions, the availability, form and terms of financing, other investment and business opportunities, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors. Although this Item 4 reflects plans and proposals presently contemplated by the Reporting Person with respect to the Issuer, the information herein is subject to change at any time and dependent upon contingencies and assumed and speculative conditions, and there can be no assurance that any of the actions set forth herein will be taken.

Depending upon each factor discussed above and any other factor (which may be unknown at this time) that is, or may become relevant, the Reporting Person may consider, among other things: (a) the acquisition by the Reporting Person of additional securities of the Issuer, the disposition of securities of the Issuer, or the exercise of convertible securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) changes in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer; (e) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing any class of the Issuer’s securities to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or (j) any action similar to those enumerated above.

Except to the extent that the foregoing may be deemed to be a plan or proposal, the Reporting Person currently has no plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions specified in clause (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Depending upon the foregoing factors and to the extent deemed advisable in light of his overall investment portfolio and strategies, or other factors, the Reporting Person may, at any time and from time to time, formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, or any other actions that could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The foregoing is subject to change at any time, and there can be no assurance that the Reporting Person will take any of the actions set forth above.”

Mr. Spangenberg and ELS make a joint Schedule 13D filing reporting their beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-4 of the Act, the Reporting Person expressly declares that the filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that any such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) and/or Section 13(g) of the Act or otherwise, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Statement held by any other person, including without limitation Mr. Spangenberg and ELS. The Reporting Person expressly disclaims that it has agreed to act as a group with respect to the Issuer or securities of the Issuer for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act other than as described in this Schedule 13D.
