**Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.**

Effective as of December 2, 2025 (the "Effective Date"), A-Mark Precious Metals, Inc. (the "Company") changed its corporate name to Gold.com, Inc., pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Amendment") adopted by the Company's Board of Directors and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Name Change"). Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Name Change did not require approval of the Company's stockholders.

The Company also amended and restated its bylaws (the "Prior Bylaws") to reflect the Name Change, effective as of the Effective Date.

The Name Change does not affect the rights of the Company's stockholders, and the only amendments to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Prior Bylaws were to change the Company's corporate name from "A-Mark Precious Metals, Inc." to "Gold.com, Inc." in each case.

**Item 8.01 Other Events.**

In connection with the Name Change, the Company transferred the listing of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), from the Nasdaq Global Select Market to The New York Stock Exchange and changed the trading symbol for the Common Stock from "AMRK" to "GOLD", effective as of market open on the Effective Date (the "Symbol Change"). The Symbol Change does not affect the rights of the Company's stockholders, and the Common Stock's CUSIP number remains unchanged following the Name Change and Symbol Change.

In connection with the Name Change, the Company launched a new corporate website: <u>www.gold.com</u>. Information contained on the Company's website is not part of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.12.

Such indemnification shall not be exclusive of other indemnification rights arising under the certificate of incorporation, any by-law, agreement, vote of directors or stockholders or otherwise and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of such person. Any person seeking indemnification under this Article 5 shall be deemed to have met the standard of conduct required for such indemnification unless the contrary shall be established by a final, non-appealable judgment. Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article 5 shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a Indemnified Person with respect to any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Person occurring prior to such repeal or modification. For purposes of this Article 5, the term "officer of the Corporation" includes an officer identified in or designated by the Board under Section 3.1 of these bylaws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2 <u>Expenses</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3 <u>Nonexclusivity</u>. Nothing herein shall limit or affect any right of any Indemnified Person otherwise than hereunder to indemnification or expenses, including attorneys' fees, under any statute, rule, regulation, certificate of incorporation, by-law, insurance policy, contract or otherwise.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.4 <u>Amendment</u>. Anything in these bylaws to the contrary notwithstanding, no elimination of this Article 5, and no amendment of this Article 5 adversely affecting the right of any Indemnified Person to indemnification or advancement of expenses hereunder will be effective until the 60th day following notice to that Indemnified Person of that action, and no elimination of or amendment to this Article 5 will thereafter deprive any Indemnified Person of his or her rights hereunder arising out of alleged or actual occurrences, acts or failures to act prior to that 60th day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5 <u>No Inconsistent Action</u>. The Corporation shall not, except by elimination or amendment of this Article 5 in a manner consistent with the Article 5.4, take any corporate action or enter into any agreement that prohibits, or otherwise limits the rights of any Indemnified Person to, indemnification in accordance with the provisions of this Article 5. The indemnification of any Indemnified Person provided by this Article 5 will be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each Indemnified Person and will continue after that Indemnified Person has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and will inure to the benefit of that Indemnified Person's heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. If the Corporation fails timely to make any payment pursuant to the indemnification and advancement or reimbursement of expenses provisions of this Article 5 and an Indemnified Person commences an action or proceeding to recover such payment, the Corporation in addition shall advance or reimburse such Indemnified Person for the legal fees and other expenses of such action or proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.6 <u>Indemnification Agreement</u>. The Corporation is authorized to enter into agreements with any of its directors or officers extending rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to such Indemnified Person to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, but the failure to enter into any such agreement will not affect or limit the rights of such Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article 5, it being expressly recognized hereby that all directors or officers of the Corporation, by serving as such after the adoption hereof, are acting in reliance hereon and that the Corporation is estopped to contend otherwise. Persons who are not directors or officers of the Corporation will be similarly indemnified and entitled to advancement or reimbursement of expenses to the extent authorized at any time by the board of directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.7 <u>Unenforceability</u>. In case any provision in this Article 5 shall be determined at any time to be unenforceable in any respect, the other provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the affected provision shall be given the fullest possible enforcement in the circumstances, it being the intention of the Corporation to afford indemnification and advancement of expenses to its directors or officers, acting in such capacities or in the other capacities mentioned herein, to the fullest extent permitted by law whether arising from alleged or actual occurrences, acts or failures to act occurring before or after the adoption of this Article 5.
