This Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) amends the Definitive Proxy Statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed by Destiny Tech100, Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “us”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 19, 2024, relating to the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”).

 

The purpose of this Amendment is to notify shareholders of (i) a change in the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting and (ii) a reduced quorum requirement.

 

This date of this Amendment is November 12, 2024.

 

Except as amended by the information contained herein, all information set forth in the Proxy Statement remains the same and should be considered in casting your vote in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting.

 

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the Proxy Statement.

All the relevant information regarding the meeting and how to vote, including the Proxy Statement and accompanying proxy card, can be found at http://viewproxy.com/DXYZ/2024.

 

This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement. Shareholders who have already authorized their proxies to vote do not need to take any action, unless they wish to change or revoke their prior proxy or voting instructions. Their votes will be counted at the postponed Annual Meeting.

As such, the Proxy Statement is amended as follows:

 

·

The first sentence of the section “GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING – Quorum Required” is replaced with the following: “At least one third of the outstanding Shares must be present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting in order to have a quorum.”

 

·

The second sentence under “GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING – Quorum and Adjournment” is replaced with the following: “The presence at the Annual Meeting, virtually or by proxy, of the holders of one third of the shares outstanding on the Record Date will constitute a quorum.”
