Vitru Limited (the “Company”), an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Registration Statement on Form F-3 (No. 333-260480) (the “Registration Statement”), previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to terminate all offerings and deregister:

 

·

any and all securities, registered but unsold or otherwise unissued as of the date hereof under the Registration Statement, filed with the SEC on October 25, 2021, registering the offer and sale, from time to time, by (i) the Company of common shares, U.S.$0.00005 par value per share (“Common Shares”), of the Company, senior debt securities, subordinated debt securities, warrants, rights to purchase any of the Company’s Common Shares or any of the other securities offered pursuant to the Registration Statement, or units, separately or together in any combination, in one or more offerings up to U.S.$400,000,000, and/or (ii) by the selling shareholders identified in any prospectus supplement, of up to 23,538,503 Common Shares of the Company.

 

For ease of reference, all share numbers above are as stated in the original Registration Statement, without giving pro forma effect to any adjustments, as applicable, for subsequent events such as stock splits occurring after the original filing date of the Registration Statement.

(“Vitru Brazil”). In connection therewith, the Company has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with the undertaking made by the Company in Part II, Item 10(a)(3) of the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration any and all securities registered but unsold or otherwise unissued under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof, and terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. After giving effect to this Amendment, there will be no remaining securities registered by the Company pursuant to the Registration Statement.
