    EXPLANATORY NOTE

     

    This registration statement (this “Registration Statement”) is filed by Wellchange Holdings Company Limited, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Registrant”) to register securities issuable pursuant to the Wellchange Holdings Company Limited 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and restated, “the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan”). The securities registered hereby consist of 7,000,000 Ordinary Shares, US$ 0.00005 par value per share of the Registrant, which represent the number of Ordinary Shares that were authorized under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate number of additional shares which may be offered and issued to prevent dilution from share splits, share dividends or similar transactions as provided in the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan. Any Ordinary Shares covered by an award granted under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (or portion of an award) that terminates, expires, lapses or repurchased for any reason will be deemed not to have been issued for purposes of determining the maximum aggregate number of Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan.

    PART II

     

    INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

     

    Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

     

    The following documents, and all documents we subsequently file pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and shall be deemed to be a part hereof from the date of the filing of such documents:

     

    (1)The annual report, filed by the Registrant on May 16, 2025, on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (File No. 001-42294).

     

    (2)The description of our securities incorporated by reference in our annual report  on Form 20-F, as (File No. 001-42294) filed with the Commission on May 16, 2025, including any amendment and report subsequently filed for the purpose of updating that description; and

     

    (3)all reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the report referred to in (1) above.

     

    All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold, or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.

     

    Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.

     

    Item 4. Description of Securities.

     

    Not applicable.

     

    Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

     

    Not applicable.

     

    II-1

     

     

    Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     

    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.

     

    Our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that every director and other officer of the Company shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against all costs, charges, expenses, losses and liabilities incurred by that director or officer in the conduct of the Company’s business, or in the discharge of that person’s duties, other than such liability (if any) that the director or officer may incur by their own dishonesty, actual fraud or wilful default and, further, that no director or officer shall be liable to the Company for any loss or damage arising in the execution of the duties of his office or relation thereto unless that liability arises through the dishonesty, actual fraud or willful default of such director or officer.

     

    In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our prior directors and executive officers that provide such persons with additional indemnification beyond that provided in our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

     

    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 Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

     

    Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

     

    Not applicable.

     

    Item 8. Exhibits.

     

    Reference is hereby made to the Exhibit Index, which is incorporated herein by reference.

     

    II-2

     

     

    Item 9. Undertakings.

     

    A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     

    (1)To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

     

    (a)To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

     

    (b)To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement; and

     

    (c)To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;

     

    provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

     

    (2)That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment 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)To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

     

    B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement 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.

     

    C. 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 foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the 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.
