This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 22, 2021, Mr. Yat-Gai Au, a Hong Kong citizen, and Regencell (BVI) Limited., a limited liability company organized in British Virgin Islands (“Regencell (BVI) Limited,” and together with Mr. Yat-Gai Au, the “Reporting Persons”), with respect to the ordinary shares of Regencell Bioscience Holdings Limited (the “Company”), with par value $0.00001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”). Except as set forth below, each of the items set forth on the Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on July 27, 2021 and the Schedule 13D Amendment No.1 filed with the SEC on November 22, 2021 is incorporated by reference in this Amendment No. 2 and restated as of the date hereof.
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
On October 30, 2014, Mr. Yat-Gai Au acquired 10,000 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer in a private transaction pursuant to the exemption from registration available under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation S promulgated thereunder. On September 28, 2020, Mr. Yat-Gai Au transferred the 10,000 Ordinary Shares to Regencell (BVI) Limited, which is wholly owned by Mr. Yat-Gai Au. On March 18, 2021, the Issuer issued a convertible note to Mr. Yat-Gai Au in the principal amount of $3,250,000 (the “Note”), pursuant to the exemption from registration available under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation S promulgated thereunder, automatically convertible into Ordinary Shares, upon the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, at the same price as the offering price per Ordinary Shares to be issued in the initial public offering to Mr. Yat-Gai Au or his designees.
On May 31, 2021, the Company effectuated a forward split at a ratio of 1,000-for-1 to increase its authorized capital shares from 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares with a par value of $0.01 per share to 100,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares with a par value of $0.00001 per share, or the 2021 Forward Split.
On July 20, 2021, the Issuer issued 342,105 Ordinary Shares to Regencell (BVI) Limited, designee of Mr. Yat-Gai Au, pursuant to the Note. As a result of the 2021 Forward Split and conversion of the Note, Mr. Yat-Gai Au indirectly owns and controls 10,342,105 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer through his 100% ownership of Regencell (BVI) Limited.
Between the filing of Schedule 13D Amendment No. 1 on November 22, 2021 and December 29, 2021, Mr. Yat-Gai Au has used an aggregate of $946,044 of his personal funds to effect various purchases of Ordinary Shares made through the Reporting Persons’ Rule 10b-18 Plan.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
The Reporting Persons acquired the Ordinary Shares described in Item 5(c), and all other Ordinary Shares purchased since the filing of Schedule 13D on July 27, 2021, for investment. The Reporting Persons may make further acquisitions of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares from time to time and, subject to certain restrictions, may dispose of any or all of the Ordinary Shares held by the Reporting Persons at any time depending on an ongoing evaluation of the investment in such securities, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities and other factors. However, certain of such shares are subject to certain lock-up restrictions as further described in Item 6 below.
Except for the foregoing and except in Yat-Gai Au’s capacity as the Chief Executive Officer and the chairman of the board of director of the Issuer and the beneficial owner of 10,427,965 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, as of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in:
(a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer;
(b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;

(d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number of terms of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
(e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;
(f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure;
(g) changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any other person;
(h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or
(j) any similar action to those enumerated above.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
(a)-(b) The responses to Items 7 - 13 of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 2 are incorporated herein by reference.
