[S-8] Four Seasons Education (Cayman) Inc. American depositary shares, each representing ten (10) Employee Benefit Plan Registration

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Four Seasons Education (Cayman) Inc. (symbol: FEDU) filed a Form S-8 on 16 July 2025 to register ordinary shares (in the form of ADSs) that may be issued under its new 2025 Share Incentive Plan. The filing appoints CT Corporation System (New York) as U.S. agent for service and incorporates by reference the company’s most recent Form 20-F (FY ended 28 Feb 2025) and all future Exchange Act reports filed before any post-effective amendment that deregisters unsold shares.

Key statutory items are routine: Cayman Islands law allows broad director/officer indemnification except for fraud or wilful default; corresponding provisions are restated in the company’s memorandum & articles, indemnification agreements and D&O insurance. The filing lists standard exhibits, including the plan itself (Ex. 10.1) and legal / audit consents. Undertakings commit the company to update the prospectus for any material changes and to remove unsold securities at offering termination.

No financial statements, share counts or fee table details are included in the excerpt, and the document contains no earnings or guidance information. The submission is strictly administrative, enabling issuance of equity compensation to employees and directors.

Insights

Securities Counsel

TL;DR: Routine Form S-8 registers shares for FEDU’s 2025 incentive plan; no financial impact disclosed.

This filing merely adds newly authorised ordinary shares/ADSs to the shelf for employee equity awards. It relies on incorporation by reference of the latest 20-F, avoiding repetition of financial data. Indemnification language mirrors typical Cayman-based structures and is subject to SEC public-policy limitations. No share amount, cost or dilution metrics appear in the excerpt, so material investor impact cannot yet be quantified. Standard undertakings and exhibits are present; overall, the document is procedural rather than strategic.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s 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 or committing a crime. Under the Registrant’s second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, to the maximum extent permissible by applicable law, every director and officer of the Registrant (but not including its auditors) shall be indemnified and secured harmless against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, losses, damages, expenses or liabilities incurred or sustained by them, other than by reasons of their own dishonesty, wilful default or fraud, in or about the conduct of the Registrant's business or affairs (including as a result of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of their duty, powers, authorities or directions, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any cost, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by them in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning the Registrant or its affairs in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere.

Pursuant to the indemnification agreements, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Registrant’s registration statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-220951), the Registrant has agreed to indemnify its directors and executive officers against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being such a director or officer of the Registrant.

The underwriting agreement, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Registrant’s registration statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-220951), also provides for indemnification of the Registrant and its officers and directors.

The Registrant currently carries liability insurance for its directors and executive officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has 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.

See the Index to Exhibits attached hereto.

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:

(i) to include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the 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 the Registration Statement;

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

2

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; and

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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 of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the 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 of 1933 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 of 1933 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 of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
