Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

As previously reported on our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 27, 2023, Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) commenced a private placement of shares of common stock for gross proceeds of up to $4,000,000 at a price per share which equals the Nasdaq Rule 5653(d) Minimum Price definition, but in no event at a price per share lower than $0.60 (the “Private Placement”).

On February 13, 2024, pursuant to the Private Placement, the Company issued a total of 633,333 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $380,000 at $0.60 per share.

On February 16, 2024, pursuant to the Private Placement, the Company issued a total of 1,000,000 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $600,000 at $0.60 per share.

Please refer to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 5, 2024 for additional information.

The Private Placement is conducted pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The shares are only offered to a small select group of accredited investors, as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, all of whom have a substantial pre-existing relationship with the Company. The Company filed a Form D on December 15, 2023, amended on January 11, 2024, and amended on February 12, 2024.

This current report on Form 8-K is issued in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act, and is neither an offer to sell any securities, nor a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

On February 7, 2024, in connection with the vesting of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), on December 31, 2023, certain of the Company’s employees, consultants and advisors received a total of 18,410 shares pursuant to RSUs issued under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan at a price per share of $11.16.

For this sale of securities, no general solicitation was used, no commissions were paid, all persons were accredited investors, and the Company relied on the exemption from registration available under Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act with respect to transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. A Form D was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023.
