AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SCHEDULE 13D/A

Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D/A (this “Statement”) relates to shares of common stock, $0.01 par value of AMERI Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 5000 Research Court, Suite 750, Suwanee, Georgia.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

The Reporting Persons acquired the Issuer’s shares of common stock primarily for investment purposes. However, the Reporting Persons may contact others it believes to be “accredited investors” who may own securities of the Issuer in exploratory conversations to determine if such persons may be willing to sell such securities in privately negotiated transactions with privately negotiated prices which, at this time, would not involve a change in voting control of the Issuer. No assurances can be given that the Reporting Persons will consummate any purchases from such persons and may instead decide to sell all or a part of its holdings in one or more market transactions in the future.

Subject to ongoing evaluation, except as otherwise set forth above, the Reporting Person has no current plans or proposals which relate to or would otherwise result in any of the following:

(a)

(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)

Any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board;

(e)

Any 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 including, but not limited to, if the Issuer is a registered closed-end investment company, any plans or proposals to make any changes in its investment policy for which a vote is required by Section 13 of the Investment Company Act of 1940;

(g)

Changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;

(h)

Causing a class of securities of the Issuer 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or

(j)

Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

Notwithstanding the above, the Reporting Persons reserve the right to consider alternatives and explore the possibility of acquiring additional shares of the Issuer’s common stock that they do not currently own. The Reporting Persons will promptly amend this Statement when the Reporting Persons’ purpose changes.
