This amended annual report clarifies that Intelligent Group Ltd, as a foreign private issuer, currently opts to follow British Virgin Islands corporate governance practices instead of several Nasdaq Stock Market Rules. These exemptions include requirements for independent director meetings, minimum quorum for shareholder meetings, and shareholder approval for significant equity issuances, changes of control, and equity compensation plans. This explicit declaration of non-compliance with certain Nasdaq standards could lead to reduced shareholder protections compared to U.S. domestic issuers. Investors should be aware of these differing governance standards.
