This seems to be very close to what you are trying to do

=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A1000="John")*(C2:C1000="No")*(IF(FREQUENCY(B2:B1000,B2:B999)>0,TRUE)))

There is one flaw with the frequency in that it ignores the last row. If I change the frequency formula to FREQUENCY(B2:B1000,B2:B1000) it will error out as it returns 10 results instead of the desired 9.

EDIT

It is probably better to extend the other ranges than shorten the bins array.

=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A1001="John")*(C2:C1001="No")*(IF(FREQUENCY(B2:B1001,B2:B1000)>0,TRUE)))
