PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Our amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, which became effective on September 25, 2023, empowers us to indemnify our directors and officers against certain liabilities they incur by reason of their being a director or officer of our Company.

We have also entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers in connection with this Offering. Under these agreements, we have agreed to indemnify our directors and executive officers against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being a director or officer of our Company.

The underwriting agreement in connection with this Offering also provides for indemnification of us and our officers, directors or persons controlling us for certain liabilities.

We intend to obtain directors’ and officer’s liability insurance coverage that will cover certain liabilities of directors and officers of our Company arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

ITEM 7. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.

On June 15, 2022, we issued 50,000 Ordinary Shares to Gaderway Investments Limited to the exemption from registration available under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation S promulgated thereunder. No underwriters were involved in these issuances of securities.

Securities/Purchaser	Date of Issuance		Number of Securities		Consideration
Ordinary Shares
Gaderway Investments Limited		June 15, 2022		50,000		US$500

On August 11, 2023, our sole shareholder, Gaderway Investments Limited, approved a share split of our outstanding Ordinary Shares at a ratio of 1:231.7, which became effective immediately, resulting in 11,585,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding after the share split. All references to Ordinary Shares, options to purchase Ordinary Shares, share data, per share data, and related information have been retroactively adjusted, where applicable, in this prospectus to reflect the split of our Ordinary Shares as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earlier period presented.

After the share split of our Ordinary Shares effective on August 11, 2023, in November 2023, Gaderway Investments Limited entered into instruments of transfer with five investors (collectively, the “Investors”), whereby Gaderway Investments Limited sold an aggregate of 2,317,000 Ordinary Shares to the Investors for the aggregate consideration of $5,792,500.

The following table sets forth the breakdown of the foregoing transactions among Gaderway Investments Limited and the Investors:

Name of the Investors	Number of Ordinary Shares Sold/Purchased		Consideration
Cheung Hoi Hung		440,000	$	1,100,000
Zhang Mi		222,000	$	555,000
Poon Chung Lung		546,000	$	1,365,000
Chan Chu Hing		569,000	$	1,422,500
Lo Wing Sang		540,000	$	1,350,000

On February 21, 2024, Lo Wing Sang, one of the Investors, entered into an instrument of transfer with Miu Man Cheung, whereby Lo Wing Sang sold the 540,000 Ordinary Shares he held to Miu Man Cheung for a consideration of $1,350,000.

ITEM 8. EXHIBITS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES.

(a) Exhibits

See the Exhibit Index attached to this registration statement, which is incorporated by reference herein.

(b) Financial Statement Schedules

Schedules have been omitted because the information required to be set forth therein is not applicable or is shown in the Consolidated Financial Statements or the Notes thereto.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1)	For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2)	For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)	For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(4)	For the purpose of determining any liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)	Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii)	Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii)	The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv)	Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
