PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

Lanvin Group Holdings Limited

42,712,386 Ordinary Shares

We may from time to time in one or more offerings offer and sell up to an aggregate of 42,712,386 of our ordinary shares, par value $0.000001 per share (“Ordinary Shares”).

We will provide specific terms of any offering in a supplement to this prospectus. Any prospectus supplement may also add, update, or change information contained in this prospectus. You should carefully read this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement as well as the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus before you purchase any of the securities offered hereby.

These securities may be offered and sold in the same offering or in separate offerings; to or through underwriters, dealers, and agents; or directly to purchasers. The names of any underwriters, dealers, or agents involved in the sale of our securities, their compensation and any options to purchase additional securities granted to them will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. For a more complete description of the plan of distribution of these securities, see the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 31 of this prospectus.

Our Ordinary Shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the trading symbols “LANV”. On July 18, 2024, the closing price for our Ordinary Shares on the NYSE was $1.57 per share.

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements. In addition, we are a “foreign private issuer” as defined under the U.S. federal securities laws and, as such, may elect to comply with certain reduced public company disclosure and reporting requirements. See “Our Company—Implications of Being a Foreign Private Issuer and a Controlled Company.”

We are a Cayman Islands holding company, and our operations are conducted by our subsidiaries organized in various jurisdictions including China. The securities offered herein are our securities, not securities of such operating subsidiaries. We may face various legal and operational risks and uncertainties associated with having a portion (approximately 12.5% of our revenues in 2023) of our operations conducted in China through our Chinese subsidiaries. For example, we may be subject to complex and evolving laws and regulations in China. The PRC government has indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas by and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, including regulatory uncertainties related to the use of variable interest entities, tightened supervision over China-based issuers listed overseas, oversight on cybersecurity and data security, and expanded efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. Although we do not use any variable interest entities, we may face risks associated with regulatory approvals on offerings conducted overseas by, and foreign investment in, China-based issuers and oversight on cybersecurity and data privacy, which may impact our ability to conduct certain businesses in China, accept foreign investments, or list on a U.S. or other foreign exchange outside of China. These risks could result in a material adverse change in our operations and the value of our securities, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer, or continue to offer, securities to investors or cause the value of such securities to significantly decline.

We may be subject to the risk of trading prohibitions under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCA Act. Our independent auditor, Grant Thornton Zhitong Certified Public Accountants LLP, is an independent registered accounting firm based in the mainland of China. Pursuant to the HFCA Act and related regulations, if we have filed an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) has determined is unable to inspect and investigate

completely for two consecutive years, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, will prohibit our securities from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB issued a report that vacated its December 16, 2021 determination and removed mainland China and Hong Kong from the list of jurisdictions where it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms. However, there can be no assurance that the PCAOB will continue to have such access. Should PRC authorities fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB may consider the need to issue a new determination, which may affect our ability to maintain the listing of our securities on the U.S. national securities exchanges, including the NYSE, and the trading of them in the over-the-counter trading market. A delisting would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our securities when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with a potential delisting would have a negative impact on the price of our securities. For details, see “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Securities—Our ability to maintain the listing of our securities on the NYSE may be dependent on the PCAOB’s continued access to inspect our independent auditors” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 20-F”), which is incorporated herein by reference.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before buying any securities, you should carefully read the discussion of material risks of investing in our securities in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 9 of this prospectus and the other information included in or incorporated by reference in the prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplements.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed on the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

OUR COMPANY

Overview

We are a global luxury fashion group with five portfolio brands, namely Lanvin, Wolford, Sergio Rossi, St. John and Caruso.

In addition to our current five portfolio brands, we are also actively looking at potential add-on acquisitions as part of our growth strategy. Our goal is to build a leading global luxury group with unparalleled access to Asia, and to provide customers with excellent products that reflect our brands’ tradition of fine craftsmanship with exclusive design content and a style that preserves the exceptional manufacturing quality for which those brands are known. This is consistently achieved through the sourcing of superior raw materials, the careful finish of each piece, and the way the apparel products are manufactured and delivered to our customers.

Our products are sold through an extensive network of around 1,100 points of sale (“POSs”) including approximately 280 directly operated retail stores (across our five portfolio brands) as of December 31, 2023. We distribute our products worldwide via our retail and outlet stores, our wholesale customers and e-commerce platforms. Taking into account our DTC (including both directly-operated stores and e-commerce sites) and wholesale channels, we are present in more than 80 countries.

Summary of Risk Factors

Investing in our securities entails a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider such risks before deciding to invest in our securities. Below please find a summary of the principal risks we face, organized under relevant headings. These risks are discussed more fully in “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors” in our 2023 Form 20-F, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry

Risks Relating to Our Securities

-3-

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our prior second fiscal quarter, we have been subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements for at least 12 calendar months; and filed at least one annual report, and (ii) the date on which we issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. We intend to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to most other public companies, whether or not they are classified as “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, an exemption from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that our independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

In addition, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts “emerging growth companies” from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with certain other public companies difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Implications of Being a Foreign Private Issuer and a Controlled Company

We are subject to the information reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that are applicable to “foreign private issuers,” and under those requirements we file reports with the SEC. As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to the same requirements that are imposed upon U.S. domestic issuers by the SEC. Under the Exchange Act, we are subject to reporting obligations that, in certain respects, are less detailed and less frequent than those of U.S. domestic reporting companies. For example, we are not required to issue quarterly reports, proxy statements that comply with the requirements applicable to U.S. domestic reporting companies, or individual executive compensation information that is as detailed as that required of U.S. domestic reporting companies. We also have four months after the end of each fiscal year to file our annual reports with the SEC and are not required to file current reports as frequently or promptly as U.S. domestic reporting companies. Furthermore, our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the requirements to report transactions in our equity securities and from the short-swing profit liability provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As a foreign private issuer, we are also not subject to the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) promulgated under the Exchange Act. These exemptions and leniencies reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections available to you in comparison to those applicable to shareholders of U.S. domestic reporting companies.

We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE listing rules as Fosun International owns more than 50% of our voting power as of the date of this prospectus. Under these rules, a “controlled company” will be permitted to elect to not comply with certain corporate governance requirements. Currently, we do not

-4-

plan to utilize the exemptions available for controlled companies, but will rely on the exemption available for foreign private issuers to follow our home country governance practices instead.

Our Organizational Structure

The following diagram depicts an organizational structure of the Company as of the date hereof. Except as otherwise specified, equity interests depicted in this diagram are held as to 100%.

PRC Permissions and Approvals

We conduct a portion (approximately 12.5% of our revenues in 2023) of our operations in China, and as of the date of this prospectus, we have obtained all requisite permissions and approvals that are material to our operations in China. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain such permissions and approvals in the future. In addition, laws and regulations in China may change quickly with little advance notice, and the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations in China at any time. As a result, we may be required to obtain additional permissions and approvals in the future. There can be no assurance that such permissions and approvals can be obtained in a timely manner, or at all, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Under the PRC laws, rules and regulations currently in effect, no prior permission or approval from PRC government authority is required for the transactions completed pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, including but not limited to the listing of our securities on the NYSE. However, the Chinese government has recently indicated that it may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based issuers. In particular, on February 17, 2023, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC, released the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, or the Trial Measures, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. The Trial Measures will apply to overseas securities offerings and/or listings conducted by (i) companies incorporated in

-5-

the PRC, or PRC domestic companies, directly and (ii) companies incorporated overseas with operations primarily in the mainland of China and valued on the basis of interests in PRC domestic companies, or indirect offerings. An equity or equity linked securities offering by an overseas company will be deemed an indirect offering if (i) more than 50% of such overseas company’s consolidated revenues, total profit, total assets or net assets that are derived from its audited consolidated financial statements for the most recently completed fiscal year are attributable to PRC domestic companies, and (ii) any of the following three circumstances applies: key components of its operations are carried out in the mainland of China; its principal places of business are located in the mainland of China; or the majority of the senior management members in charge of operation and management are citizens of the mainland of China or domiciled in the mainland of China.

The Trial Measures requires filings with the CSRC within three business days after the submission of an initial public offering or listing application overseas, or three business days after the completion of a follow-on offering in the same overseas market. If a company that should have been subject to the Trial Measures (i) has completed overseas offering and listing prior to the effectiveness of the Trial Measures; or (ii) (a) has its registration statement declared effective by the SEC prior to the effectiveness of the Trial Measures, and (b) while it is not necessary to fulfill any other regulatory procedures requested by the overseas regulators or overseas stock exchanges, will further complete its overseas offering and listing by September 30, 2023, such company is not required to file for such offering immediately, but should file as required if it is involved in follow-on offerings and other matters that require filing.

Our subsidiaries established in the mainland of China accounted for less than 50% of our consolidated revenues, total profit, total assets and net assets in 2021, 2022 and 2023. The main parts of our business activities are not conducted in the mainland of China. As a result, despite the fact that our principal executive offices are located in Shanghai, our principal places of business are not located in the mainland of China. Most of the senior managers in charge of our business operation and management are not citizens of the mainland of China or domiciled in the mainland of China. Hence, the likelihood that this offering will constitute an indirect overseas offering by a PRC domestic company under the Trial Measures is low, based on our assessment. We have therefore not filed materials pursuant to the Trial Measures. However, the interpretation, application and enforcement of the Trial Measures are still evolving, and it remains uncertain whether the requirements under the Trial Measures are applicable to this offering. If the offering by us pursuant to this registration statement is deemed an indirect offering by the CSRC, we will need to fulfil filing obligations pursuant to the Trial Measures.

On December 28, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China, together with certain other government authorities, promulgated the Revised Cybersecurity Review Measures that took effect from February 15, 2022, pursuant to which online platform operators holding over one million users’ information must apply for a cybersecurity review before listing abroad, and operators of “critical information infrastructure” that intend to purchase internet products and services that will or may affect national security must apply for a cybersecurity review. Furthermore, the competent government authorities may also initiate a cybersecurity review against the relevant operators where the authorities believe that the network product or service or data processing activities affect or may affect national security. However, the scope of potential operators of “critical information infrastructure” remains unclear. In addition, the scope of network product or service or data processing activities that will or may affect national security is also unclear and subject to regulatory interpretation. As of the date of this prospectus (i) we had not been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement to apply for a cybersecurity review; (ii) we did not hold or process personal information of over one million users; and (iii) we had not received any investigation, notice, warning, or sanctions from applicable government authorities in relation to national security. Nonetheless, the interpretation and implementation of the Revised Cybersecurity Review Measures is subject to uncertainties, and the relevant laws and regulations may also change in the future.

As a result of such regulatory development, government authorities in China could conduct a cybersecurity review over our PRC domestic subsidiaries, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. See “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry—If we were to become subject to the oversight, discretion or control of PRC government authorities over of securities and/or foreign investments, it may result in a material adverse change in our

-6-

operations, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline, which would materially affect the interests of the investors” in our 2023 Form 20-F.

We are an offshore holding company and have operations in the mainland of China conducted by our PRC domestic subsidiaries. We may make loans to our PRC domestic subsidiaries subject to the approval from or registration with the governmental authorities and other limitations in the future. These include foreign exchange loan registrations and maximum statutory limit of the loan amount (which is either the difference between the registered capital and the total investment amount of the concerned company or the upper limit calculated based on the formula prescribed in the prevailing regulations). There can be no assurance that such permissions and approvals can be obtained in a timely manner, or at all, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Permissions and Approvals on Transfer and Repatriation of Cash within Our Group

We transfer cash to our subsidiaries through capital injections and shareholder loans. Subject to the cash needs of the subsidiaries, shareholders’ loans as granted may be capitalized (as equity) or repaid.

Cash in the subsidiaries may also be repatriated to us via dividend distribution. Nevertheless, no cash repatriation by way of distribution/dividends was made to us prior to our Business Combination or to LGHL as of the date of this prospectus.

Our principal subsidiaries, being our portfolio brands, are based mainly in the U.S. (Delaware) and Europe including Italy, France and Austria. We are subject to certain restrictions or limitations regarding distribution of earnings from the portfolio brands to us, which may in turn limit the cash available to make distributions to our shareholders. For our operating subsidiaries that are Delaware corporations, to which the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL) applies, the power and authority to declare dividends/distributions resides with the board of directors of the corporation. Further, the DGCL permits distributions out of either a surplus or net profits (subject to certain limitations). In addition, specific provisions under credit agreements or the relevant subsidiary’s bylaws may impose specific restrictions or approval requirements regarding dividend payment (including a contingent obligation or otherwise). For our Italian subsidiaries, no distribution may be made unless a reserve fund accumulated from net profits reach at least 20% of the relevant subsidiary’s share capital. Our subsidiaries in Italy also face other general restrictions to the shareholders’ right to an earnings distribution. In Austria, our subsidiaries cannot issue a dividend unless the validly adopted financial statements for a financial year show a balance sheet profit, which represents the maximum amount of capital available for the distribution of profits. Loans by us to our subsidiaries in Austria are considered equity substitution if we are in a crisis, and will only be repaid if we are fully restructured.

For our portfolio brands, the cash needs of the brands’ subsidiaries are provided as necessary in the form of shareholder loans or capital injections from us or the relevant parent brand entity. Payments from local subsidiaries to their parent brands are typically for purchase of inventories from the parent brand, and generally do not face any foreign exchange or capital control limitations. However, dividends and loan repayments may face similar restrictions as mentioned above.

Dividends repatriated or paid from our Chinese subsidiaries must be made from retained earnings as per such subsidiary’s financial statements prepared in accordance with Chinese accounting rules. Additionally, each of our Chinese subsidiaries must set aside a statutory reserve fund of at least 50% of its registered capital before it may pay dividends, and a 10% withholding tax or other reduced rate withholding tax under the China-Hong Kong treaty may be applied to the dividends repatriated from our Chinese subsidiaries. Also, approval from or registration with appropriate Chinese government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted outside of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. However, we do not expect Chinese subsidiaries to declare any dividends or pay capital expenses to our portfolio brands in the near future.

We made capital injections of EUR50.0 million in 2021, EUR50.0 million in 2022 and EUR27.0 million in 2023 into Lanvin brand portfolio through Arpège SAS, as well as EUR7.9 million in Raffaele Caruso S.p.A. in 2021. We also made an advance payment of EUR1.0million in Raffaele Caruso S.p.A in 2023. Caruso also received a shareholder loan of EUR2.5 million, EUR5.5 million and EUR1.0 million from us in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively. We have waived part of the repayment of shareholder loan by Caruso. In 2023, we paid EUR11.78 million for the subscription of Wolford shares. In addition, Wolford AG received shareholder loans of EUR10.0 million, EUR22.5 million, and EUR10.8 million from us in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively. In 2021, 2022 and 2023, we issued shareholder loans of $35.8 million, $25.5 million and $12.5 million, respectively, to St. John. After we acquired Sergio Rossi in 2021, Sergio Rossi S.p.A received capital injections of EUR5.0 million, EUR13.0 million and EUR11.0 million in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively. In 2023, Sergio Rossi S.p.A received a shareholder loan of EUR3.5million from us. We have also made capital injections and intercompany loans totaling RMB1.1 million, $3.7 million and $2.5 million to our Chinese subsidiaries in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Other than the loan repayment of $1.0 million by St. John to us in August 2023, none of our direct subsidiaries made any dividends, distributions, or repayments to us in 2021, 2022 and 2023. We have also not made any transfers, dividends, or distributions to our shareholders as of the date of this annual report other than the cash dividend of $1.0 million and $1.0 million paid to Meritz in 2022 and 2023, respectively. On March 30, 2023, Jeanne Lanvin S.A. (“JLSA”) as the borrower, LGHL as the guarantor and Meritz as the lender entered into a facility agreement, pursuant to which Meritz made available to JLSA a facility in the sum of JPY3,714.4 million (the “Facility”). In 2023, a total of JPY502.3 million under the Facility was repaid to Meritz, including both principal and interest. See “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Meritz Private Placement” and “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Other Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions—Other Related Party Transactions—Shareholder Loans” in our 2023 Form 20-F.

The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act

We may be subject to the risk of trading prohibitions under the HFCA Act. Our independent auditor, Grant Thornton Zhitong Certified Public Accountants LLP, is an independent registered accounting firm based in the mainland of China. Pursuant to the HFCA Act and related regulations, if we have filed an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that the PCAOB has determined is unable to inspect and investigate completely for two consecutive years, the SEC will prohibit our securities from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB issued a report that vacated its December 16, 2021 determination and removed mainland China and Hong Kong from the list of jurisdictions where it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms. However, there can be no assurance that the PCAOB will continue to have such access. Should PRC authorities fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB may consider the need to issue a new determination, which may affect our ability to maintain the listing of our securities on the U.S. national securities exchanges, including the NYSE, and the trading of them in the over-the-counter trading market. A delisting would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our securities when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with a potential delisting would have a negative impact on the price of our securities. For details, see “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Securities—Our ability to maintain the listing of our securities on the NYSE may be dependent on the PCAOB’s continued access to inspect our independent auditors” in our 2023 Form 20-F.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL

A summary of the material provisions governing our share capital is described below. This summary is not complete and should be read together with our Amended Articles, a copy of which is incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability and our affairs are governed by the Amended Articles, the Cayman Companies Act, and the common law of the Cayman Islands.

Our authorized share capital is $50,000 divided into 49,984,999,999 Ordinary Shares with a par value of $0.000001 each, 15,000,000 Non-Voting Ordinary Shares with a par value of $0.000001 each and one Convertible Preference Share with a par value of $0.000001. As of July 15, 2024, there were 142,374,619 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. As of the same date, no Non-Voting Ordinary Shares was issued. On December 14, 2023, we repurchased the Convertible Preference Share from Meritz. All Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus are fully paid and non-assessable.

The Amended Articles became effective on December 14, 2022. The following are summaries of material provisions of the Amended Articles and the Cayman Companies Act insofar as they relate to the material terms of our securities.

Exempted Company

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability. The Cayman Companies Act distinguishes between ordinary resident companies and exempted companies. Any company that is registered in the Cayman Islands but conducts business mainly outside of the Cayman Islands may apply to be registered as an exempted company. The requirements for an exempted company are essentially the same as for an ordinary company exempt for the exemptions and privileges listed below:

Ordinary Shares

General

All of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares are fully paid and non-assessable.

Our shareholders who are non-residents of the Cayman Islands may freely hold and vote their ordinary shares. The Amended Articles prohibit us from issuing bearer or negotiable shares. We may not issue share to bearer and Ordinary Shares are issued in registered form, which will be issued when registered in our register of members.

-14-

Dividends

The holders of our Ordinary Shares are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the board of directors subject to the Amended Articles and the Cayman Companies Act. In addition, our shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by the board of directors. Under Cayman Islands law, dividends may be paid only out of profits (including retained earnings), or out of the share premium account (subject to a solvency test being met immediately following the payment of the dividend). No dividend may be declared and paid unless our directors determine that we have funds lawfully available for such purpose and that, immediately after the payment, we will be able to pay our debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

Register of Members

Under Cayman Islands law, we must keep a register of members and there must be entered therein:

Under Cayman Islands law, the register of members is prima facie evidence of the matters set out therein (i.e., the register of members will raise a presumption of fact on the matters referred to above unless rebutted) and a member registered in the register of members will be deemed as a matter of Cayman Islands law to have legal title to the shares as set against its name in the register of members.

If the name of any person is, without sufficient cause, entered in or omitted from the register of members, or if default is made or unnecessary delay takes place in entering on the register the fact of any person having ceased to be a member, the person or member aggrieved or any member or our Company itself may apply to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands for an order that the register be rectified, and the Court may either refuse such application or it may, if satisfied of the justice of the case, make an order for the rectification of the register.

Voting Rights

Voting at any meeting of shareholders will be decided by poll and not by way of a show of hands. A poll shall be taken in such manner as the chair directs, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting.

Subject to any rights and restrictions for the time being attached to any share, every shareholder and every person representing a shareholder by proxy shall have one vote for each share of which they or the person represented by proxy is the holder.

All questions submitted to a meeting shall be decided by an ordinary resolution except where a greater majority is required by the Amended Articles or by the Cayman Companies Act. In the case of an equality of votes, the chair of the meeting shall be entitled to a second or casting vote. All resolutions of the shareholders shall be passed at a general meeting duly convened and held in accordance with the Amended Articles and resolutions of shareholders in writing in lieu of a general meeting shall not be permitted.

-15-

An ordinary resolution to be passed by the shareholders will require a simple majority of votes cast, including by all holders of a specific class of shares, if applicable, while a special resolution will require not less than two-thirds of votes cast.

General Meetings and Shareholder Proposals

As a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obliged by the Cayman Companies Act to call

shareholders’ annual general meetings. The Amended Articles provide that our board of directors may convene a general meeting at any time whenever they see fit, but does not compel us to convene an annual general meeting.

Separate general meetings of the holders of a class or series of shares may be called by a majority of the entire board of directors (unless otherwise specifically provided by the terms of issue of the shares of such class or series).

Cayman Islands law provides limited rights for shareholders to requisition a general meeting. However, additional rights may be provided in a company’s articles of association. The Amended Articles allow our shareholders holding at least ten percent of the paid up voting share capital of the Company to requisition a shareholder’s meeting.

A quorum required for a meeting of shareholders consists of any one or more shareholders holding at least one-third (1/3) of the paid up voting share capital present and entitled to vote at that meeting shall form a quorum or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative. In the ordinary course, advance notice of at least seven clear days’ notice in writing is required for the convening of our annual general meeting and other shareholders meetings.

Transfer of Ordinary Shares

Subject to applicable laws, including securities laws, the NYSE rules and the restrictions contained in the Amended Articles and to any lock-up agreements to which a shareholder may be a party, any shareholders may transfer all or any of their Ordinary Shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by the NYSE rules or any other form approved by the board of directors.

Subject to the NYSE rules and to any rights and restrictions for the time being attached to any Ordinary Share, the board of directors shall not unreasonably decline to register any transfer of Ordinary Shares and if the board of directors refuses to register a transfer our Company shall, within two months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged with our Company, send to each of the transferor and the transferee notice of the refusal, including the relevant reason for such refusal.

Issuance of Additional Shares

The board of directors may issue additional ordinary shares from time to time as the board of directors shall determine, to the extent of available authorized but unissued shares.

Liquidation

On the winding up, if the assets available for distribution amongst the shareholders shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the shareholders in proportion to the par value of the shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up, subject to a deduction from those shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to us for unpaid calls or otherwise. If our assets available for distribution are

-16-

insufficient to repay the whole of the share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses are borne by our shareholders in proportion to the par value of the shares held by them. We are a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability, and under the Cayman Companies Act, the liability of our members is limited to the amount, if any, unpaid on the shares respectively held by them. The Amended Articles contains a declaration that the liability of our members is so limited.

Calls on Ordinary Shares and Forfeiture of Ordinary Shares

Our board of directors may from time to time make calls upon shareholders for any amounts unpaid on their Ordinary Shares. The Ordinary Shares that have been called upon and remain unpaid are, after a notice period, subject to forfeiture.

Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of Ordinary Shares

Subject to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act, we may issue shares on terms that such shares are subject to redemption or are liable to be redeemed, at our option or at the option of the holders thereof. The redemption of such shares will be effected in such manner and upon such other terms as we may, by ordinary resolution of the shareholders or the board of directors, determine before the issue of the shares.

We may also repurchase any of our shares provided that the manner and terms of such purchase have been approved by our board of directors, or by the shareholders by ordinary resolution, or are otherwise authorized by the Amended Articles. The premium (if any) payable in respect of any shares being redeemed or purchased may be paid out of profits, out of the share premium account or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purposes of the redemption or purchase. Alternatively, as authorized under the Amended Articles, we may make a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own shares out of capital provided that immediately following the date on which the payment out of capital is proposed to be made, we shall be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. In addition, under the Cayman Companies Act no such share may be redeemed or repurchased (a) unless it is fully paid up, (b) if such redemption or repurchase would result in there being no issued shares outstanding (excluding any shares held in treasury), or (c) if we have commenced liquidation. In addition, we may accept the surrender of any fully paid share for no consideration.

Variation of Rights of Shares

Subject to the Amended Articles, if at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any such class may, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class, be varied or abrogated without the consent of the holders of the issued shares of that class where such variation or abrogation is considered by the directors not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights. Otherwise, any such variation or abrogation will be made only with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the issued shares of that class, or with the approval of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to the shares of that class, be deemed to be materially adversely varied or abrogated by, inter alia, the creation, allotment or issue of further shares ranking pari passu with or subsequent to them or the redemption or purchase of any shares of any class by us.

General Meeting of Shareholders

We may (but shall not be obliged to) hold an annual general meeting at such time and place as our board of directors will determine. At least seven clear days’ notice shall be given for any general meeting. The board of directors may call extraordinary general meetings, and must convene an extraordinary general meeting upon the requisition of (a) shareholders holding at least ten percent of the paid up voting share capital. One or more

-17-

shareholders holding at least one-third (1/3) of the paid up voting share capital of present at the meeting (including physical presence or virtual attendance by means of electronic facilities of the shareholder or its duly appointed proxy) and entitled to vote will be a quorum for all purposes.

Inspection of Books and Records

Our board of directors will determine whether, to what extent, at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books will be open to the inspection by our shareholders, and no shareholder will otherwise have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of our Company (other than our memorandum and articles of association, register of mortgages and charges and special resolutions of our shareholders) except as required by the law or authorized by the directors or by ordinary resolution of our shareholders in a general meeting. Our register of directors is also available for inspection in the Cayman Islands upon payment of a fee to the registrar of Companies.

Exclusive Forum

The Amended Articles provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the courts of the Cayman Islands shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear, settle and/or determine any dispute, controversy or claim (including any non-contractual dispute, controversy or claim) whether arising out of or in connection with the Amended Articles or otherwise, including any questions regarding their existence, validity, formation or termination. The Amended Articles further provide that foregoing exclusive jurisdiction provision does not apply to claims or causes of action brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, or any other claim based on securities laws, for which the federal district courts of the United States shall have exclusive jurisdiction.

Changes in Capital

We may from time to time by ordinary resolution, subject to the rights of holders of Ordinary Shares:

We may by special resolution reduce our share capital or any capital redemption reserve fund in any manner permitted by law.

Investor Rights Agreement

Amended and Restated Meritz Relationship Agreement

Certain Cayman Islands Company Considerations

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability. This discussion does not purport to be a complete statement of the rights of holders of our shares under applicable law in the Cayman Islands or the rights of holders of the common stock of a typical corporation in the United States.

Our corporate affairs are governed by the Amended Articles, the Cayman Companies Act of the Cayman Islands and the common law of the Cayman Islands. We cannot predict whether Cayman Islands courts would reach the same conclusions as Delaware or other courts in the United States. Accordingly, you may have more difficulty in protecting your interests under Cayman Islands law in the face of actions by our management, directors or controlling shareholder(s) than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a U.S. jurisdiction that has developed a substantial body of case law.

Differences in Corporate Law

The Cayman Companies Act is modeled after that of English law but does not follow recent statutory enactments in England. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws than the United States. Some U.S. states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

Mergers and Similar Arrangements

The Cayman Companies Act permits mergers and consolidations between Cayman Islands companies and between Cayman Islands companies and non-Cayman Islands companies. For these purposes, (a) “merger” means the merging of two or more constituent companies and the vesting of their undertaking, property and liabilities in one of such companies as the surviving company, and (b) a “consolidation” means the combination of two or more constituent companies into a consolidated company and the vesting of the undertaking, property and liabilities of such companies to the consolidated company.

In order to effect such a merger or consolidation, Cayman Islands law requires a written plan of merger or consolidation to be approved by the directors of each constituent company and authorization by (a) a special resolution of the shareholders of each constituent company and (b) such other authorization, if any, as may be specified in such constituent company’s articles of association.

A merger between a Cayman parent company and its Cayman subsidiary or subsidiaries does not require authorization by a resolution of shareholders of that Cayman subsidiary if a copy of the plan of merger is given to every member of that Cayman subsidiary to be merged unless that member agrees otherwise. For this purpose, a subsidiary is a company of which at least ninety percent (90%) of the issued shares entitled to vote are owned by the parent company.

The consent of each holder of a fixed or floating security interest over a constituent company is required unless this requirement is waived by a court in the Cayman Islands.

The written plan of merger or consolidation must be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands together with a declaration as to the solvency of the consolidated or surviving company, a declaration as to the assets and liabilities of each constituent company and an undertaking that a copy of the certificate of

-19-

merger or consolidation will be given to the members and creditors of each constituent company and that notification of the merger and consolidation will be published in the Cayman Islands Gazette. Save in certain circumstances, a dissenting shareholder of a Cayman constituent company is entitled to payment of the fair value of his shares upon dissenting to a merger or consolidation. The fair value of the shares will be determined by the Cayman Islands court if it cannot be agreed among the parties. The exercise of dissenter rights will preclude the exercise by the dissenting shareholder of any other rights to which he or she might otherwise be entitled by virtue of holding shares, save for the right to seek relief on the grounds that the merger or consolidation is void or unlawful. Court approval is not required for a merger or consolidation effected in compliance with these statutory procedures.

In addition, there are statutory provisions that facilitate the reconstruction and amalgamation of companies, by way of schemes of arrangement, provided that the arrangement is approved by (a) 75% in value of the shareholders or class of shareholders, or (b) a majority in number representing 75% in value of the creditors, as the case may be, that are present and voting either in person or by proxy at a meeting, or meetings, convened for that purpose. The convening of the meetings and subsequently the arrangement must be sanctioned by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. While a dissenting shareholder has the right to express to the court the view that the transaction ought not to be approved, the court can be expected to approve the arrangement if it determines that:

Alternatively, Cayman Islands law also contains a statutory power of compulsory acquisition which may facilitate the “squeeze out” of dissentient minority shareholder upon a takeover offer. When a takeover offer is made and accepted by holders of 90.0% of the shares affected within four months, the offeror may, within a two-month period commencing on the expiration of such four month period, require the holders of the remaining shares to transfer such shares to the offeror on the terms of the offer. An objection can be made to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands but this is unlikely to succeed in the case of an offer which has been so approved unless there is evidence of fraud, bad faith or collusion.

If an arrangement and reconstruction by way of scheme of arrangement is thus approved, or if a takeover offer is made and accepted in accordance with the foregoing statutory procedures, the dissenting shareholder would have no rights comparable to appraisal rights, save that objectors to a takeover offer may apply to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands for various orders that the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands has a broad discretion to make.

Shareholders’ Suits

Derivative actions have been brought in the Cayman Islands courts. In principle, the Company will be the proper plaintiff in any claim based on a breach of duty owed to it, and a claim against (for example) the Company’s officers or directors usually may not be brought by a shareholder. However, based on English authorities, which would in all likelihood be of persuasive authority and be applied by a court in the Cayman Islands, the Cayman Islands courts can be expected (and have had occasion) to follow and apply the common law principles (namely

-20-

the rule in Foss v. Harbottle and the exceptions thereto) which permit a minority shareholder to commence a class action against, or derivative actions in the name of us when:

A shareholder may have a direct right of action against us where the individual rights of that shareholder have been infringed or are about to be infringed.

Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. The Amended Articles provides that our directors, secretary, assistant secretary and other officers (but not including our auditors) and the personal representatives of the same shall be indemnified and secured harmless out of the assets and funds of our Company against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred or sustained by them, other than by reason of their own dishonesty, willful default or fraud as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, in or about the conduct of the Company’s business affairs (including as a result of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of their duties, powers, authorities or discretion, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by them in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning us or our affairs in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere. In addition, we will enter into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers that provide such persons with additional indemnification beyond that provided in the Amended Articles.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling us under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Directors’ Fiduciary Duties

As a matter of Cayman Islands law, a director of a Cayman Islands company is in the position of a fiduciary with respect to the company of which they are a director and therefore it is considered that he or she owes the following duties to such company: a duty to act bona fide in the best interests of such company; a duty not to make a personal profit based on his or her position as director (unless such company permits him or her to do so) and a duty not to put himself or herself in a position where the interests of such company conflict with his or her personal interest or his or her duty to a third party. A director of a Cayman Islands company owes to such company a duty to act with skill and care. It was previously considered that a director need not exhibit in the performance of his or her duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of his or her knowledge and experience. However, English and Commonwealth courts have moved towards an objective standard with regard to the required skill and care and these authorities are likely to be followed in the Cayman Islands.

Under the Amended Articles, a director who is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a contract or proposed contract with our Company shall declare the nature of their interest at a meeting of the board of directors. A general notice given to the directors by any director to the effect that he or she is to be

-21-

regarded as interested in any contract or other arrangement which may thereafter be made with that company or firm shall be deemed a sufficient declaration of interest in regard to any contract so made. Following such declaration, and subject to the rules of the NYSE and disqualification by the chair of the relevant board meeting, a director may vote in respect of any contract or proposed contract or arrangement notwithstanding that he or she may be interested therein and if he or she does so his or her vote shall be counted and he or she may be counted in the quorum at any meeting of the directors at which any such contract or proposed contract or arrangement shall come before the meeting for consideration.

Shareholder Action by Written Consent

The Amended Articles provide that resolutions of shareholders in writing in lieu of a general meeting shall not be permitted.

Shareholder Proposals

Cayman Islands law does not provide shareholders any right to put a proposal before a meeting or requisition a general meeting. However, these rights may be provided in a company’s articles of association. The Amended Articles allow our shareholders holding at least ten percent of the paid up voting share capital to requisition a shareholder’s meeting, in which case our board of directors will be obliged to convene an extraordinary general meeting and put the resolutions so requisitioned to a vote at such meeting. Other than this right to requisition a shareholders’ meeting, the Amended Articles do not provide our shareholders any other right to put a proposal before a shareholders’ general meeting. As an exempted company in the Cayman Islands, we are not obliged by law to call shareholders’ annual general meetings, nor do the Amended Articles compel us to convene an annual general meeting.

Cumulative Voting

Cumulative voting potentially facilitates the representation of minority shareholders on a board of directors since it permits the minority shareholder to cast all the votes to which the shareholder is entitled on a single director, which increases the shareholder’s voting power with respect to electing such director. There are no prohibitions in relation to cumulative voting under the laws of the Cayman Islands but the Amended Articles do not provide for cumulative voting.

Removal of Directors

Under the Amended Articles, subject to the Sponsor’s right to appoint and remove one individual to serve as a director (subject to the Sponsor holding 50% of the Ordinary Shares held by it on the listing date of the Shares on the NYSE), the other directors may be removed with or without cause, by an ordinary resolution of our shareholders. An appointment of a director may be on terms that the director shall automatically retire from office (unless he has sooner vacated office) at the next or a subsequent annual general meeting or upon any specified event or after any specified period in a written agreement between the Company and the director, if any; but no such term shall be implied in the absence of express provision. In addition, a director’s office shall be vacated if the director (i) becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors; (ii) dies or is found to be or becomes of unsound mind; (iii) resigns his office by notice in writing to the Company; (iv) is removed from office by notice addressed to them at their last known address and signed by all of their co-directors (not being less than two in number) or, (v) is removed from office pursuant to any other provisions of the Amended Articles.

Transactions with Interested Shareholders

Although Cayman Islands law does not regulate transactions between a company and its significant shareholders, it does provide that such transactions must be entered into bona fide in the best interests of the company and not with the effect of constituting a fraud on the minority shareholders.

-22-

Dissolution and Winding up

Under Cayman Islands law, a company may be wound up either compulsorily by an order of the courts of the Cayman Islands or voluntarily, by a special resolution of its members or on the occurrence of an event or expiry of period specified in its articles of association, or, if the company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due, by an ordinary resolution of its members. The court has authority to order winding up in a number of specified circumstances including where it is, in the opinion of the court, just and equitable to do so. Under the Cayman Companies Act, we may commence winding up upon the passing of a special resolution of our shareholders.

Variation of Rights of Shares

Under Cayman Islands law and the Amended Articles, if our share capital is divided into more than one class of shares, the rights attached to any such class may, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class, only be materially adversely varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

Amendment of Governing Documents

As permitted by Cayman Islands law, the Amended Articles may only be amended with a special resolution of our shareholders.

Rights of Non-resident or Foreign Shareholders

There are no limitations imposed by the Amended Articles on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on our shares. In addition, there are no provisions in the Amended Articles that require us to disclose shareholder ownership above any particular ownership threshold.

TAXATION

United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

General

The following is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our Ordinary Shares (the “Securities”). This discussion applies only to U.S. Holders (as defined below) that purchase Securities from us in this offering. No ruling has been requested or will be obtained from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our Securities; thus, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the U.S. federal income tax treatment described below or that, if challenged, such treatment will be sustained by a court.

This summary is limited to U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to U.S. Holders that hold Securities as “capital assets” within the meaning of section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to holders in light of their individual circumstances, including holders subject to special treatment under the U.S. tax laws, such as, for example:

As used in this prospectus, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Securities that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

-24-

The discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Code, the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as of the date hereof. Those authorities may be repealed, revoked, modified or subject to differing interpretations, possibly on a retroactive basis, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below. Furthermore, this discussion does not address any aspect of U.S. federal non-income tax laws, such as gift, estate or Medicare contribution tax laws, or state, local or non-U.S. tax laws.

This discussion does not consider the tax treatment of partnerships or other pass-through entities or persons who hold Securities through such entities. If a partnership (or other entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of Securities, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partner and the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding Securities, we urge you to consult your own tax advisor.

THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF ACQUIRING, OWNING AND DISPOSING OF SECURITIES. HOLDERS OF SECURITIES SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF SECURITIES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

U.S. Holders

Taxation of Distributions

Subject to the possible applicability of the PFIC rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder generally will be required to include in gross income as a foreign-source dividend the amount of any distribution paid on our Ordinary Shares (including the amount of any tax withheld on such distribution) to the extent the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits generally will be applied against and reduce the U.S. Holder’s basis in our Ordinary Shares (but not below zero) and, to the extent in excess of such basis, will be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of such ordinary shares (see “—Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Ordinary Shares” below). However, because we do not determine our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, distributions on our Ordinary Shares generally will be reported to U.S. Holders as dividends taxable at ordinary income tax rates.

Dividends paid by us to a corporate U.S. Holder will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, subject to certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations), dividends on our Ordinary Shares generally will be qualified dividend income subject to tax at preferential rates applicable to long-term capital gains provided that our Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, and we are not treated as a PFIC in the year the dividend is paid or in the preceding year and certain holding period and other requirements are met. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that shares listed on NYSE (on which our Ordinary Shares are listed) will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Even if the Ordinary Shares are listed on NYSE, there can be no assurance that our Ordinary Shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in future years. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of such lower rate for any dividends paid with respect to Ordinary Shares.

-25-

In the event that we are deemed to be a PRC resident enterprise under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (see “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry—Changes in tax laws, regulations and policies in jurisdictions in which we operate may materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition” in our 2023 Form 20-F), a U.S. Holder may be subject to PRC withholding taxes on dividends paid on our Ordinary Shares. We may, however, be eligible for the benefits of the US-PRC Tax Treaty (the “Treaty”) if we are considered a PRC resident enterprise. If we are eligible for such benefits, dividends we pay on our Ordinary Shares would be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation. In addition, a U.S. Holder may be entitled, subject to generally applicable limitations and conditions, to claim a foreign tax credit in respect of PRC taxes withheld on dividends received at the applicable Treaty rate. U.S. Holders who do not elect to claim a credit for any foreign income taxes paid or accrued during the taxable year may instead claim a deduction of such taxes. The rules relating to the foreign tax credit are complex, and recently issued Treasury Regulations (the “Foreign Tax Credit Regulations”) have introduced additional requirements and limitations to the foreign tax credit rules. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of foreign tax credits or deductions with respect to the Ordinary Shares in the event any PRC tax is withheld from our dividends.

Dividends paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be includable in income in a U.S. dollar amount based on the exchange rate in effect on the date of receipt whether or not the non-U.S. currency received is converted into U.S. dollars or otherwise disposed of at that time. If dividends paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars are converted into U.S. dollars on the day they are received, the U.S. Holder generally will not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income.

Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Ordinary Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of our Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Ordinary Shares. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for such Ordinary Shares exceeds one year. Long-term capital gain realized by a non-corporate U.S. Holder is currently eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deduction of capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

In the event that gain from the disposition of our Ordinary Shares is subject to tax in the PRC, such gain may be treated as PRC source gain under the Treaty. However, under the recently issued Foreign Tax Credit Regulations, a U.S. Holder that is not eligible for the benefits of the Treaty or that does not elect to apply the benefits of the Treaty may not be able to claim a foreign tax credit in respect of any PRC tax imposed on the disposition of the Ordinary Shares. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences if any PRC tax were to be imposed on a disposition of our Ordinary Shares, including the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances and the potential impact of the Foreign Tax Credit Regulations.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Status

The treatment of U.S. Holders of our Ordinary Shares could be materially different from that described above if we are or were treated as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year during which such U.S. Holders held our Ordinary Shares.

A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income or (ii) at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year (ordinarily determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year), including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes

-26-

dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets.

We do not believe we were a PFIC for our most recently completed taxable year and, based on the composition of our current gross assets and income and the manner in which we expect to operate our business in future years, do not currently expect to be classified as a PFIC for the current taxable year or foreseeable future taxable years. However, this conclusion is a factual determination that must be made annually at the end of our taxable year, and our status will depend among other things upon changes in the composition and relative value of our gross receipts and assets. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that we will not be classified as a PFIC in the current year or in any future taxable year.

If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder of Ordinary Shares, such U.S. Holder generally would be subject to special and adverse rules with respect to (i) any gain recognized by the U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of its Ordinary Shares and (ii) any “excess distribution” made to the U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. Holder in respect of the Ordinary Shares during the three preceding taxable years of such U.S. Holder or, if shorter, such U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Ordinary Shares).

Under these rules:

If we are a PFIC and, at any time, have a non-U.S. subsidiary that is classified as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder generally would be deemed to own a portion of the shares of such lower-tier PFIC, and generally could incur liability for the deferred tax and interest charge described above if we (or our subsidiary) receive a distribution from, or disposes of all or part of its interest in, the lower-tier PFIC or the U.S. Holders otherwise were deemed to have disposed of an interest in the lower-tier PFIC. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the tax issues raised by lower-tier PFICs.

A U.S. Holder may avoid some of the adverse PFIC tax consequences described above in respect of the Ordinary Shares by making and maintaining a timely and valid QEF election (if eligible to do so) to include in income its pro rata share of our net capital gains (as long-term capital gain) and other earnings and profits (as ordinary income), on a current basis, in each case whether or not distributed, in the taxable year of the U.S. Holder in which or with which our taxable year ends. In order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election, a U.S. Holder must receive a PFIC Annual Information Statement from us. However, we do not expect to furnish U.S. Holders with the tax information necessary to enable a U.S. Holder to make a QEF election.

Alternatively, if we are a PFIC and our Ordinary Shares constitute “marketable stock,” a U.S. Holder may avoid some of the adverse PFIC tax consequences discussed above if such U.S. Holder, at the close of the first taxable year in which it holds (or is deemed to hold) the Ordinary Shares, makes a mark-to-market election with

-27-

respect to such shares for such taxable year. Such U.S. Holder generally will include for each of its taxable years as ordinary income the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its Ordinary Shares at the end of such year over its adjusted basis in its Ordinary Shares. The U.S. Holder also will recognize an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of its adjusted basis of its Ordinary Shares over the fair market value of its Ordinary Shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election). The U.S. Holder’s basis in its Ordinary Shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of its Ordinary Shares will be treated as ordinary income. Currently, a mark-to-market election may not be made with respect to Warrants. The mark-to-market election is available only for “marketable stock,” generally, stock that is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC, including NYSE (on which the Ordinary Shares are listed), or on a foreign exchange or market that the IRS determines has rules sufficient to ensure that the market price represents a legitimate and sound fair market value.

The rules dealing with PFICs are complex and are affected by various factors in addition to those described above. Accordingly, U.S. Holders of the Ordinary Shares should consult their tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules to Securities under their particular circumstances.

Non-U.S. Holders

This section applies to you if you are a “Non-U.S. Holder.” As used herein, the term “Non-U.S. Holder” means a holder who, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is a beneficial owner of Securities (other than a partnership or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not a U.S. Holder.

Dividends (including constructive dividends) paid or deemed paid to a Non-U.S. Holder in respect of Ordinary Shares generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base that such holder maintains in the United States). In addition, a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain attributable to a sale or other disposition of Securities unless such gain is effectively connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base that such holder maintains in the United States), or the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more in the taxable year of sale or other disposition and certain other conditions are met (in which case, such gain from the United States sources generally is subject to tax at a 30% rate or a lower applicable treaty rate).

Dividends (including constructive dividends) and gains that are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base in the United States) generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the same regular U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to a comparable U.S. Holder and, in the case of a Non-U. S. Holder that is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, also may be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30% rate or a lower applicable tax treaty rate.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Dividend payments (including constructive dividends) with respect to Ordinary Shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of Securities may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and possible United States backup withholding. Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number (generally on an IRS Form W-9 provided to the paying agent of the U.S. Holder’s broker) and makes other required certifications, or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding and establishes such exempt status. A Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be

-28-

subject to the requirement for information reporting and backup withholding by providing certification of its foreign status, under penalties of perjury, on a duly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 or by otherwise establishing an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or credit against a holder’s U. S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Certain U.S. Holders holding specified foreign financial assets with an aggregate value in excess of an applicable dollar threshold are required to report information to the IRS relating to Securities, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for Securities held in an account maintained with a U.S. financial institution), by attaching a complete IRS Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets, with their tax return, for each year in which they hold Securities.

Cayman Islands Tax Considerations

The following summary contains a description of certain Cayman Islands income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of ordinary shares, but it does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase ordinary shares. The summary is based upon the tax laws of Cayman Islands and regulations thereunder as of the date hereof, which are subject to change.

Prospective investors should consult their professional advisers on the possible tax consequences of buying, holding or selling any shares under the laws of their country of citizenship, residence or domicile.

The following is a discussion on certain Cayman Islands income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities. The discussion is a general summary of present law, which is subject to prospective and retroactive change. It is not intended as tax advice, does not consider any investor’s particular circumstances, and does not consider tax consequences other than those arising under Cayman Islands law.

Under Existing Cayman Islands Laws:

Payments of dividends and capital in respect of Securities will not be subject to taxation in the Cayman Islands and no withholding will be required on the payment of interest and principal or a dividend or capital to any holder of Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, nor will gains derived from the disposal of the Ordinary Shares be subject to Cayman Islands income or corporation tax. The Cayman Islands currently have no income, corporation or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax.

No stamp duty is payable in respect of the issue of Securities or on an instrument of transfer in respect of a Security, unless the relevant instruments are executed in, or after execution brought within, the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands or our Company holds interests in land in the Cayman Islands.

The Tax Concessions Law

We have been incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability and, as such, pursuant to section 6 of the Tax Concessions Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, we may obtain undertakings from the Financial Secretary of the Cayman Islands:

-29-

The Cayman Islands currently levy no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciations and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to us levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands save certain stamp duties which may be applicable, from time to time, on certain instruments executed in or brought within the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands.

-30-

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities offered through this prospectus (1) to or through underwriters or dealers; (2) directly to purchasers, including our affiliates, (3) through agents, or (4) through a combination of any these methods. The securities may be distributed at a fixed price or prices which may be changed, market prices prevailing at the time of sale, prices related to prevailing market prices, or negotiated prices. The prospectus supplement will include the following information, if applicable:

Sale through underwriters or dealers

If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account, including through underwriting, purchase, security lending or repurchase agreements. The underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions. Underwriters may sell the securities in order to facilitate transactions in any of our other securities (described in this prospectus or otherwise), including other public or private transactions and short sales. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. The prospectus supplement will include the names of the principal underwriters the respective amount of securities underwritten, the nature of the obligation of the underwriters to take the securities and the nature of any material relationship between an underwriter and us.

If dealers are used in the sale of securities offered through this prospectus, we will sell the securities to them as principals. They may then resell those securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. The prospectus supplement will include the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction.

Direct sales and sales through agents

We may sell the securities offered through this prospectus directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. Such securities may also be sold through agents designated from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities and will describe any commissions payable to the agent by us. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.

-31-

We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities. The terms of any such sales will be described in the prospectus supplement.

Delayed delivery contracts

If the prospectus supplement indicates, we may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase securities at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts.

Market making, stabilization and other transactions

Unless the applicable prospectus supplement states otherwise, each series of offered securities will be a new issue and will have no established trading market. We may elect to list any series of offered securities on an exchange. Any underwriters that we use in the sale of offered securities may make a market in such securities, but may discontinue such market making at any time without notice. Therefore, we cannot assure you that the securities will have a liquid trading market.

Any underwriter may also engage in stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Rule 104 under the Exchange Act. Stabilizing transactions involve bids to purchase the underlying security in the open market for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the securities. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions.

Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be in the absence of the transactions. The underwriters may, if they commence these transactions, discontinue them at any time.

Derivative transactions and hedging

We, the underwriters or other agents may engage in derivative transactions involving the securities. These derivatives may consist of short sale transactions and other hedging activities. The underwriters or agents may acquire a long or short position in the securities, hold or resell securities acquired and purchase options or futures on the securities and other derivative instruments with returns linked to or related to changes in the price of the securities. In order to facilitate these derivative transactions, we may enter into security lending or repurchase agreements with the underwriters or agents. The underwriters or agents may effect the derivative transactions through sales of the securities to the public, including short sales, or by lending the securities in order to facilitate short sale transactions by others. The underwriters or agents may also use the securities purchased or borrowed from us or others (or, in the case of derivatives, securities received from us in settlement of those derivatives) to directly or indirectly settle sales of the securities or close out any related open borrowings of the securities.

Electronic auctions

We may also make sales through the Internet or through other electronic means. Since we may from time to time elect to offer securities directly to the public, with or without the involvement of agents, underwriters or dealers, utilizing the Internet or other forms of electronic bidding or ordering systems for the pricing and allocation of such securities, you should pay particular attention to the description of that system we will provide in a prospectus supplement.

-32-

Such electronic system may allow bidders to directly participate, through electronic access to an auction site, by submitting conditional offers to buy that are subject to acceptance by us, and which may directly affect the price or other terms and conditions at which such securities are sold. These bidding or ordering systems may present to each bidder, on a so-called “real-time” basis, relevant information to assist in making a bid, such as the clearing spread at which the offering would be sold, based on the bids submitted, and whether a bidder’s individual bids would be accepted, prorated or rejected. Of course, many pricing methods can and may also be used.

Upon completion of such an electronic auction process, securities will be allocated based on prices bid, terms of bid or other factors. The final offering price at which securities would be sold and the allocation of securities among bidders would be based in whole or in part on the results of the Internet or other electronic bidding process or auction.

General information

Agents, underwriters, and dealers may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us, to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

-33-

EXPENSES RELATED TO THE OFFERING

We estimate the following expenses in connection with the offer and sale of our Ordinary Shares.

Except for the SEC registration fee, estimated expenses are not presently known. The foregoing sets forth the general categories of expenses that we anticipate we will incur in connection with the offering of securities under this registration statement. To the extent required, any applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the estimated aggregate amount of expenses payable in respect of any offering of securities under this registration statement.

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES AND AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE UNITED STATES

We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. A substantial amount of our assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce in the United States judgments obtained in U.S. courts against us based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. securities laws.

Our registered office address is c/o Maples Corporate Services Limited, PO Box 309, Ugland House, Grand Cayman, KY1-1104, Cayman Islands, and our principal executive office is 4F, 168 Jiujiang Road, Carlowitz & Co, Huangpu District Shanghai, 200001, China.

We have irrevocably appointed Puglisi & Associates as our agent to receive service of process in any action against us in any U.S. federal or state court arising out of this offering or any purchase or sale of securities in connection with this offering. The address of our agent is 850 Library Avenue, Suite 204, Newark, Delaware 19711.

We have filed with the SEC a registration statement (including amendments and exhibits to the registration statement) on Form F-3 under the Securities Act with respect to Ordinary Shares offered in this prospectus. This prospectus, which constitutes a part of the registration statement, does not contain all of the information set forth in the registration statement or the exhibits and schedules filed therewith. For further information with respect to us and our securities offered hereby, reference is made to the registration statement and the exhibits and schedules filed therewith. Statements contained in this prospectus regarding the contents of any contract or any other document that is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement are not necessarily complete, and each such statement is qualified in all respects by reference to the full text of such contract or other document filed as an exhibit to the registration statement.

We are subject to the periodic reporting and other information requirements of the Exchange Act as applicable to a “foreign private issuer,” and we will file annual reports and other information from time to time with the SEC in accordance with such requirements. Our SEC filings will be available to the public on the internet at a website maintained by the SEC located at www.sec.gov.

We also maintain an Internet website at https://lanvin-group.com. Through the “Investor Relations” portal available through our website, we make available, free of charge, the following documents as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC: our Annual Reports on Form 20-F; our reports on Form 6-K; amendments to these documents; and other information as may be required by the SEC. The information contained on, or that may be accessed through, our website is not part of, and is not incorporated into, this prospectus.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt under the Exchange Act from, among other things, the rules prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we will not be required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act.

PART II

Information Not Required in Prospectus

Item 8. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The laws of the Cayman Islands do not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, willful neglect, civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our Amended Articles provides that our directors, secretary, assistant secretary and other officers (but not including our auditors) and the personal representatives of the same shall be indemnified and secured harmless out of the assets and funds of our Company against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred or sustained by them, other than by reason of their own dishonesty, willful default or fraud as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, in or about the conduct of the Company’s business affairs (including as a result of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of their duties, powers, authorities or discretion, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by them in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning us or our affairs in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere.

We have also entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers under the laws of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to which we have agreed to indemnify each such person and hold him or her harmless against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts payable under settlement agreements in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding to which he or she has been made a party or in which he or she became involved by reason of the fact that he or she is or was our director or officer. Except with respect to expenses to be reimbursed by us in the event that the indemnified person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of the action, suit or proceeding, our obligations under the indemnification agreements are subject to certain customary restrictions and exceptions.

In addition, we maintain standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided to our directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and to us with respect to payments which may be made by us to such directors and officers pursuant to the above indemnification provision or otherwise as a matter of law.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is theretofore unenforceable.
