INFORMATION
CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT
This
current report on Form 6-K is being filed to disclose that Intelligent Group Limited (the “Company”) is relying on
the home country rule exemption to enact certain Corporate Actions (as described below) without delivering notice of a formal shareholder
meeting or proxy statement or holding a Meeting of the shareholders authorizing the Corporate Actions.
As
a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands that is listed on Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”), the Company
is subject to the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards. Under Nasdaq rules, a foreign private issuer may, in general, follow
its home country corporate governance practices in lieu of some of the Nasdaq corporate governance requirements. Pursuant to the home
country rule exemption set forth under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3), a Foreign Private Issuer may follow its home country practice
in lieu of the requirements of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5600 Series, including Rule 5635(d) and 5640.
Ogier,
the counsel to the Company as to the laws of British Virgin Islands, has provided a letter of confirmation, as required by the Nasdaq
Stock Market, confirming that the governance practices adopted by the Company, in lieu of those Nasdaq corporate governance requirements
where it is electing to follow local country laws and regulations (as referenced above), are compliant with the provisions of the laws
of the British Virgin Islands and its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association in connection with authorizing the
Corporate Actions by Written resolutions of the Board and shareholders without delivering notice of a formal shareholder meeting or proxy
statement or holding a Meeting of the shareholders authorizing the Corporation Actions.
A
copy of the home country rule exemption letter from the Company’s legal counsel is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Approval
of Certain Corporate Actions
On
November 25, 2024, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of British Virgin Islands laws and the currently effective memorandum
and articles of association of Intelligent Group Limited (the “Company”), the Board of Directors of the Company approved
certain corporate actions (the “Corporate Actions”) as described herein at a meeting of the Board of Directors (the “Meeting”).
The majority shareholder of the Company, Ms. Wai Lau (the “Majority Shareholder”) further approved the Corporate Actions
by written resolution of the shareholder on that same date.
At
the close of business on November 25, 2024, the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote on the Corporate Actions,
there were 13,125,000 ordinary shares outstanding, each share being entitled to one vote, constituting all of the outstanding voting
securities of the Company. The Majority Shareholder, the holder of 9,004,500 ordinary shares of the Company, approved the Corporate Actions,
representing 68.6% of the total outstanding shares of the Company).
Pursuant
to the Board and shareholder resolutions, the Company adopted the following resolutions regarding the Corporate Actions:
1.
The re-designation of its ordinary shares of a single class each with a par value of US$0.00001 (issued and unissued) (the “Ordinary
Shares”) that (a) all the currently issued 13,125,000 Ordinary Shares be and are re-designated into Class A ordinary shares each
with a par value of US$0.00001 with one (1) vote per share but with all rights and restrictions remaining identical to the Ordinary Shares
(the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) on a one-for-one basis, (b) the remaining authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares be and
are re-designated into (i) 436,875,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares each with a par value of US$0.00001
with fifty (50) votes per share (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) on a one-for-one basis and (c) such that the Company will
be authorized to issue a maximum of 500,000,000 shares each with a par value of US$0.00001 divided into (i) 450,000,000 Class A Ordinary
Shares and (ii) 50,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares (the “Redesignation”);
2.
Concurrently with the Re-designation, the Company and the majority shareholder approved certain amendments to the Company’s
currently effective memorandum and articles of association, including (a) amending Clause 5.1 of the memorandum of association of
the Company currently in effect to reflect the changes set forth in the Redesignation, and (b) amending and restating its memorandum
and articles of association of the Company (the “Amended and Restated M&A”) in substitution for the Company’s
currently effective memorandum and articles of association to reflect the Redesignation and set out the rights and privileges of

to be converted into Class A Ordinary Shares and any other rights of conversion into, subscription for or exchange into Class A Ordinary
Shares to be satisfied in full; and (B) not make any issue, grant or distribution or take any other action if the effect would be that

Directors without further consultation with the holders of any Shares or Securities may resolve that any class or series of Shares or
other Securities in issue or to be issued from time to time may be issued, registered or converted to uncertificated form and the practices
instituted by the operator of the relevant system. No provision of these Articles will apply to any uncertificated shares or Securities
to the extent that they are inconsistent with the holding of such shares or securities in uncertificated form or the transfer of title
to any such shares or securities by means of a relevant system. |
| 1.6 | Conversion of Shares held in certificated form into Shares held in uncertificated
form, and vice versa, may be made in such manner as the Board of Directors, in its absolute discretion, may think fit (subject always

members how many Shares are held by each member in uncertificated form and certificated form and shall maintain the register of members

| (b) | that, in their opinion, the present cash value of the non-money consideration for the issue is not less
than the amount to be credited for the issue of the Shares. |

register) containing: |

a share register containing the information referred to in Regulation 2.5 or such other information as these Articles permit or as may

or other data storage form, the Company must be able to produce legible evidence of its contents. Until the directors otherwise determine,
the magnetic, electronic or other data storage form shall be the original share register. |
| 2.8 | A Share is deemed to be issued when the name of the Member is entered in the share
register. |
| 2.9 | Subject to the provisions of the Act, Shares may be issued on the terms that they are redeemable, or at
the option of the Company be liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner as the Directors before or at the time of the issue
of such Shares may determine. The Directors may issue options, warrants or convertible securities or securities of a similar nature conferring
the right upon the holders thereof to subscribe for, purchase or receive any class of Shares or Securities on such terms as the Directors
may from time to time determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Directors may also issue options, warrants, other rights to acquire
shares or convertible securities in connection with the Company's IPO. |
| 3.1 | Shares that are not fully paid on issue are subject to the forfeiture provisions
set forth in this Regulation and for this purpose Shares issued for a promissory note or a contract for future services are deemed to
be not fully paid. |
| 3.2 | A
written notice of call specifying the date for payment to be made shall be served on the Member who defaults in making payment in respect
of the Shares. |

Shares, or any of them, in respect of which payment is not made will be liable to be forfeited. |
| 3.4 | Where a written notice of call has been issued pursuant to Regulation 3.2 and the requirements of the
notice have not been complied with, the directors may, at any time before tender of payment, forfeit and cancel the Shares to which the
notice relates. |

| 4.2 | A member shall be entitled to transfer uncertificated shares by means of a relevant system and the operator
of the relevant system shall act as agent of the Members for the purposes of the transfer of such uncertificated shares. |
| 4.3 | The transfer of a Share is effective when the name of the transferee is entered on the share register. |
| 4.4 | If the directors of the Company are satisfied that an instrument of transfer relating to Shares has been
signed but that the instrument has been lost or destroyed, they may resolve by Resolution of Directors: |
| (a) | to accept such evidence of the transfer of Shares as they consider appropriate; and |
| (b) | that the transferee's name should be entered in the share register notwithstanding the absence of the instrument of transfer. |
| 4.5 | Subject to the Memorandum, the personal representative of a deceased Member may
transfer a Share even though the personal representative is not a Member at the time of the transfer. |
| 4.6 | Except
in relation to a transfer made pursuant to Regulation 4.2, the Directors may decline to register a transfer of an Ordinary Share which
(i) is not fully paid up or on which the Company has a lien; or (ii) in the case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint
holders to whom the share is to be transferred exceeds four (4). If the Directors refuse to register a transfer they shall, within one
(1) month after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, send to each of the transferor and the transferee notice of
such refusal. |
| 4.7 | A member wishing to transfer a Share is liable to pay to the Company a fee of such
maximum sum as the Designated Stock Exchange may determine to be payable, or such lesser sum as the Director may from time to time require,
is paid to the Company in respect of such transfer. |
| 4.8 | The registration of transfers may, on fourteen (14) days' notice being given by advertisement in such
one or more newspapers or by electronic means, be suspended and the register closed at such times and for such periods as the Directors
may from time to time determine, provided, however, that the registration of transfers shall not be suspended nor the register closed
for more than thirty (30) days in any year. |
| 5.1 | The directors of the Company may, by Resolution of Directors, authorise a distribution
at a time and of an amount they think fit if they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, the
value of the Company's assets will exceed its liabilities and the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due. |
| 5.2 | Dividends may be paid in money, shares, or other property. |
| 5.3 | The Company may, by Resolution of Directors, from time to time pay to the Members
such interim dividends as appear to the directors to be justified by the profits of the Company, provided always that they are satisfied,
on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, the value of the Company's assets will exceed its liabilities and the
Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due. |
| 5.4 | Notice in writing of any dividend that may have been declared shall be given to
each Member in accordance with Regulation 21 and all dividends unclaimed for three years after such notice has been given to a Member
may be forfeited by Resolution of Directors for the benefit of the Company. |
| 5.5 | No dividend shall bear interest as against the Company. |
| 6 | Redemption of Shares and Treasury Shares |
| 6.1 | The Company may purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire and hold its own Shares save that the Company may
not purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire its own Shares without the consent of the Member whose Shares are to be purchased, redeemed
or otherwise acquired unless the Company is permitted by the Act or any other provision in the Memorandum or Articles to purchase, redeem
or otherwise acquire the Shares without such consent. |
| 6.2 | The purchase redemption or other acquisition by the Company of its own Shares is deemed not to be a distribution
where: |
| (a) | The Company purchases, redeems or otherwise acquires the Shares pursuant to a right of a Member to have
his Shares redeemed or to have his shares exchanged for money or other property of the Company, or |
| (b) | The
Company purchases, redeems or otherwise acquires the Shares by virtue of the provisions of section 179 of the Act. |
| 6.3 | Sections 60, 61 and 62 of the Act shall not apply to the Company. |
| 6.4 | Shares that the Company purchases, redeems or otherwise acquires pursuant to this Regulation may be cancelled
or held as Treasury Shares except to the extent that such Shares are in excess of 50 percent of the issued Shares in which case they shall
be cancelled but they shall be available for reissue. |
| 6.5 | All rights and obligations attaching to a Treasury Share are suspended and shall not be exercised by the
Company while it holds the Share as a Treasury Share. |
| 6.6 | Treasury Shares may be disposed of by the Company on such terms and conditions
(not otherwise inconsistent with the Memorandum and Articles) as the Company may by Resolution of Directors determine. |
| 6.7 | Where Shares are held by another body corporate of which the Company holds, directly
or indirectly, shares having more than 50 per cent (50%) of the votes in the election of directors of the other body corporate, all rights
and obligations attaching to the Shares held by the other body corporate are suspended and shall not be exercised by the other body corporate. |
| 7 | Mortgages and charges of Shares |
| 7.1 | A Member may by an instrument in writing mortgage or charge his Shares. |
| 7.2 | There shall be entered in the share register at the written request of the Member: |
| (a) | a statement that the Shares held by him are mortgaged or charged; |
| (b) | the name of the mortgagee or chargee; and |
| (c) | the date on which the particulars specified in subparagraphs 7.2(a) and 7.2(b) are
entered in the share register. |
| 7.3 | Where particulars of a mortgage or charge are entered in the share register, such
particulars may be cancelled: |
| (a) | with the written consent of the named mortgagee or chargee or anyone authorised to act on his behalf;
or |
| (b) | upon evidence satisfactory to the directors of the discharge of the liability secured by the mortgage
or charge and the issue of such indemnities as the directors shall consider necessary or desirable. |
| 7.4 | Whilst particulars of a mortgage or charge over Shares are entered in the share
register pursuant to this Regulation: |
| (a) | no transfer of any Share the subject of those particulars shall be effected; |
| (b) | the
Company may not purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any such Share; and |
| (c) | no replacement certificate shall be issued in respect of such
Shares, without the written consent of the named mortgagee or chargee. |
| 8 | Meetings and consents of Members |
| 8.1 | An Annual General Meeting shall be held in each year, except that an Annual General
Meeting need not be held in the year of the Listing or the following year, at such time (without a period of not more than fifteen (15)
months after the date of the Listing or more than fifteen (15) months after the holding of the last preceding Annual General Meeting)
and place within or outside the British Virgin Islands as may be determined by the Directors. At least twenty-one (21) clear days' notice
shall be given to those Members whose names appear as Members in the register of members of the Company and all of the directors of the
Company. |
| 8.2 | Holders of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares have the right to receive notice of, attend,
speak and vote at meetings of the Members. Unless otherwise required by the Act, the Memorandum or these Articles, holders of Class A
Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares shall, at all times, vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote for
Members’ consent. |
| 8.3 | Upon the written request of the Members entitled to exercise 30 per cent (30%)
or more of the voting rights in respect of the matter for which the meeting is requested the Directors shall convene a meeting of Members. |
| 8.4 | The Director convening a meeting (other than Annual Shareholders Meeting) shall
give not less than seven (7) days' written notice of such meeting to: |
| (a) | those Members whose names on the date the notice is given appear as Members in the share register of the
Company and are entitled to vote at the meeting; and |
| 8.5 | The director convening a meeting of Members may fix as the record date for determining those Members that
are entitled to vote at the meeting the date notice is given of the meeting, or such other date as may be specified in the notice, being
a date not earlier than the date of the notice. |
| 8.6 | A meeting of Members held in contravention of the requirement to give notice is valid if Members holding
at least 90 per cent (90%) of the total voting rights on all the matters to be considered at the meeting have waived notice of the meeting
and, for this purpose, the presence of a Member at the meeting shall constitute waiver in relation to all the Shares which that Member
holds. |
| 8.7 | The inadvertent failure of a director who convenes a meeting to give notice of a meeting to a Member or
another director, or the fact that a Member or another director has not received notice, does not invalidate the meeting. |
| 8.8 | A
Member may be represented at a meeting of Members by a proxy who may speak and vote on behalf of the Member. |
| 8.9 | The instrument appointing a proxy shall be produced at the place designated for the meeting before the
time for holding the meeting at which the person named in such instrument proposes to vote. |
| 8.10 | The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in substantially the following form
or such other form as the chairman of the meeting shall accept as properly evidencing the wishes of the Member appointing the proxy. Any
proxy given by the Depositary Trust Company (DTC), its nominee or any DTC participant in the customary form and in the ordinary course
with respect of the Company with equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act shall be deemed valid. |

| 8.11 | The following applies where Shares are jointly owned: |
| (a) | if two or more persons hold Shares jointly each of them may be present in person or by proxy at a meeting
of Members and may speak as a Member; |
| (b) | if only one of the joint owners is present in person or by proxy he may vote on
behalf of all joint owners; and |
| (c) | if two or more of the joint owners are present in person or by proxy they must vote as one and in the
event of disagreement between any of the joint owners of Shares then the vote of the joint owner whose name appears first (or earliest)
in the share register in respect of the relevant Shares shall be recorded as the vote attributable to the Shares. |
| 8.12 | A Member shall be deemed to be present at a meeting of Members if he participates by telephone or other
electronic means and all Members participating in the meeting are able to hear each other. |
| 8.13 | A
meeting of Members is duly constituted if, at the commencement of the meeting, there are present in person or by proxy not less than
fifty per cent (50%) of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote on Resolutions of Members to be considered at the meeting. If the Company
has two or more classes of shares, a meeting may be quorate for some purposes and not for others. A quorum may comprise a single Member
or proxy and then such person may pass a Resolution of Members and a certificate signed by such person accompanied where such person
holds a proxy by a copy of the proxy instrument shall constitute a valid Resolution of Members. No business may be transacted at any
meeting of Members unless a quorum is present at the commencement of business. |
| 8.14 | If within two hours from the time appointed for the meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting, if convened
upon the requisition of Members, shall be dissolved; in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the next business day in the jurisdiction
in which the meeting was to have been held at the same time and place, and if at the adjourned meeting there are present within one hour
from the time appointed for the meeting in person or by proxy not less than one-third of the votes of the Shares or each class or series
of Shares entitled to vote on the matters to be considered by the meeting, those present shall constitute a quorum but otherwise the meeting
shall be dissolved. |
| 8.15 | At every meeting of Members, the Chairman of the Board shall preside as chairman of the meeting. If there
is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board is not present at the meeting, the Members present shall choose one of their
number to be the chairman. If the Members are unable to choose a chairman for any reason, then the person representing the greatest number
of voting Shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting shall preside as chairman failing which the oldest individual Member or
representative of a Member present shall take the chair. |
| 8.16 | The person appointed as chairman of the meeting pursuant to Regulation 8.15may adjourn any meeting from
time to time, and from place to place. For the avoidance of doubt, a meeting may remain open indefinitely for as long a period as may
be determined by the chairman. |
| 8.17 | At any meeting of the Members the chairman is responsible for deciding in such manner as he considers
appropriate whether any resolution proposed has been carried or not and the result of his decision shall be announced to the meeting and
recorded in the minutes of the meeting. If the chairman has any doubt as to the outcome of the vote on a proposed resolution, he shall
cause a poll to be taken of all votes cast upon such resolution. If the chairman fails to take a poll then any Member present in person
or by proxy who disputes the announcement by the chairman of the result of any vote may immediately following such announcement demand
that a poll be taken and the chairman shall cause a poll to be taken. If a poll is taken at any meeting, the result shall be announced
to the meeting and recorded in the minutes of the meeting. |
| 8.18 | Subject
to the specific provisions contained in this Regulation for the appointment of representatives of Members other than individuals the
right of any individual to speak for or represent a Member shall be determined by the law of the jurisdiction where, and by the documents
by which, the Member is constituted or derives its existence. In case of doubt, the directors may in good faith seek legal advice and
unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise rule, the directors may rely and act upon such advice without incurring
any liability to any Member or the Company. |
| 8.19 | Any Member other than an individual may by resolution of its directors or other
governing body authorise such individual as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of Members or of any class of Members,
and the individual so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same rights on behalf of the Member which he represents as that Member
could exercise if it were an individual. |
| 8.20 | The chairman of any meeting at which a vote is cast by proxy or on behalf of any Member other than an
individual may at the meeting but not thereafter call for a notarially certified copy of such proxy or authority which shall be produced
within seven (7) days of being so requested or the votes cast by such proxy or on behalf of such Member shall be disregarded. |
| 8.21 | Directors of the Company may attend and speak at any meeting of Members and at any separate meeting of
the holders of any class or series of Shares. |
| 8.22 | An action that may be taken by the Members at a meeting may also be taken by a Resolution of Members consented
to in writing, without the need for any prior notice. If any Resolution of Members is adopted otherwise than by the unanimous written
consent of all Members, a copy of such resolution shall forthwith be sent to all Members not consenting to such resolution. The consent
may be in the form of counterparts, each counterpart being signed by one or more Members. If the consent is in one or more counterparts,
and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution shall take effect on the earliest date upon which Eligible Persons holding
a sufficient number of votes of Shares to constitute a Resolution of Members have consented to the resolution by signed counterparts. |
| 9.1 | The first directors of the Company shall be appointed by the first registered agent within thirty (30)
days of the incorporation of the Company; and thereafter, the directors shall be elected by Resolution of Members or by Resolution of Directors
for such term as the Members or directors determine. |
| 9.2 | No person shall be appointed as a director of the Company unless he has consented
in writing to act as a director. |
| 9.3 | The minimum number of directors shall be one and there shall be no maximum number
of directors. |
| 9.4 | Each director holds office for the term, if any, fixed by the Resolution of Members
or Resolution of Directors appointing him, or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. If no term is fixed on the appointment
of a director, the director serves indefinitely until his earlier death, resignation or removal. |
| 9.5 | A director may be removed from office with or without cause by, |
| (a) | a
Resolution of Members passed at a meeting of Members called for the purposes of removing the director or for purposes including the removal
of the director or by a written resolution passed by a least seventy five per cent (75%) of the Members of the Company entitled to vote;
or |
| (b) | a Resolution of Directors passed at a meeting of directors. |
| 9.6 | A director may resign his office by giving written notice of his resignation to the Company and the resignation
has effect from the date the notice is received by the Company at the office of its registered agent or from such later date as may be
specified in the notice. A director shall resign forthwith as a director if he is, or becomes, disqualified from acting as a director
under the Act. |
| 9.7 | The directors may at any time appoint any person to be a director either to fill
a vacancy or as an addition to the existing directors. Where the directors appoint a person as director to fill a vacancy, the term shall
not exceed the term that remained when the person who has ceased to be a director ceased to hold office. |
| 9.8 | A vacancy in relation to directors occurs if a director dies or otherwise ceases to hold office prior
to the expiration of his term of office. |
| 9.9 | The Company shall keep a register of directors containing: |
| (a) | the names and addresses of the persons who are directors of the Company; |
| (b) | the date on which each person whose name is entered in the register was appointed as a director of the
Company; |
| (c) | the date on which each person named as a director ceased to be a director of the Company; and |
| (d) | such other information as may be prescribed by the Act. |
| 9.10 | The register of directors may be kept in any such form as the directors may approve,
but if it is in magnetic, electronic or other data storage form, the Company must be able to produce legible evidence of its
contents. Until a Resolution of Directors determining otherwise is passed, the magnetic, electronic or other data storage shall be the
original register of directors. |
| 9.11 | The directors may, or if the Shares are listed or quoted on a Designated Stock Exchange,
and if required by the Designated Stock Exchange, any committee thereof, may, by a Resolution of Directors, fix the emoluments of directors
with respect to services to be rendered in any capacity to the Company. |
| 9.12 | A director is not required to hold a Share as a qualification to office. |
| 10.1 | The
business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by, or under the direction or supervision of, the directors of the Company. The
directors of the Company have all the powers necessary for managing, and for directing and supervising, the business and affairs of the
Company. The directors may pay all expenses incurred preliminary to and in connection with the incorporation of the Company and may exercise
all such powers of the Company as are not by the Act or by the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members. |
| 10.2 | If the Company is the wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company, a director of the Company may, when
exercising powers or performing duties as a director, act in a manner which he believes is in the best interests of the holding company
even though it may not be in the best interests of the Company. |
| 10.3 | Each director shall exercise his powers for a proper purpose and shall not act or agree to the Company
acting in a manner that contravenes the Memorandum, the Articles or the Act. Each director, in exercising his powers or performing his
duties, shall act honestly and in good faith in what the director believes to be the best interests of the Company. |
| 10.4 | Any director which is a body corporate may appoint any individual as its duly authorised
representative for the purpose of representing it at meetings of the directors, with respect to the signing of consents or otherwise. |
| 10.5 | The continuing directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body. |
| 10.6 | The directors may by Resolution of Directors exercise all the powers of the Company
to incur indebtedness, liabilities or obligations and to secure indebtedness, liabilities or obligations whether of the Company or of
any third party. |
| 10.7 | All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments
and all receipts for moneys paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed, as the case may be,
in such manner as shall from time to time be determined by Resolution of Directors. |
| 10.8 | Section 175 of the Act shall not apply to the Company. |
11 | Proceedings of directors |
11.1 | Any one director of the Company may call a meeting of the directors by sending a
written notice to each other directors. |
11.2 | The directors of the Company or any committee thereof may meet at such times and in such manner and places
within or outside the British Virgin Islands as the notice calling the meeting provides. |
11.3 | A director is deemed to be present at a meeting of directors if he participates by telephone or other
electronic means and all directors participating in the meeting are able to hear each other. |
11.4 | A
director shall be given not less than three (3) days’ notice of meetings of directors, but a meeting of directors held without three
days’ notice having been given to all directors shall be valid if all the directors entitled to vote at the meeting who do not attend
waive notice of the meeting, and for this purpose the presence of a director at a meeting shall constitute waiver by that director. The
inadvertent failure to give notice of a meeting to a director, or the fact that a director has not received the notice, does not invalidate
the meeting. |
11.5 | A meeting of directors is duly constituted for all purposes if at the commencement
of the meeting there are present in person or by alternate not less than one-half of the total number of directors, unless there are only
two directors in which case the quorum is two. |
11.6 | A director may by a written instrument appoint an alternate who need not be a director and the alternate
shall be entitled to attend meetings in the absence of the director who appointed him and to vote or consent in place of the director
until the appointment lapses or is terminated. |
11.7 | If the Company has only one director the provisions herein contained for meetings
of directors do not apply and such sole director has full power to represent and act for the Company in all matters as are not by the
Act, the Memorandum or the Articles required to be exercised by the Members. In lieu of minutes of a meeting the sole director shall record
in writing and sign a note or memorandum of all matters requiring a Resolution of Directors. Such a note or memorandum constitutes sufficient
evidence of such resolution for all purposes. |
11.8 | At meetings of directors at which the Chairman of the Board is present, he shall preside as chairman of
the meeting. If there is no Chairman of the Board or if the Chairman of the Board is not present, the directors present shall choose one
of their number to be chairman of the meeting. If the directors are unable to choose a chairman for any reason, then the oldest individual
Director present (and for this purpose an alternate director shall be deemed to be the same age as the director that he represents) shall
take the chair. |
11.9 | An action that may be taken by the directors or a committee of directors at a meeting may also be taken
by a Resolution of Directors or a resolution of a committee of directors consented to in writing by all directors or by all members of
the committee, as the case may be, without the need for any notice. The consent may be in the form of counterparts each counterpart being
signed by one or more directors. If the consent is in one or more counterparts, and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution
shall take effect on the date upon which the last director has consented
to the resolution by signed counterparts. |
12.1 | The directors may, by Resolution of Directors, designate one or more committees, each consisting of one
or more directors, and delegate one or more of their powers, including the power to affix the Seal, to the committee. |
12.2 | The directors have no power to delegate to a committee of directors any of the following
powers: |
| (a) | to amend the Memorandum or the Articles; |
| (b) | to designate committees of directors; |
| (c) | to delegate powers to a committee of directors; |
| (f) | to approve a plan of merger, consolidation or arrangement; or |
| (g) | to make a declaration of solvency or to approve a liquidation plan. |
12.3 | Regulations 12.2(b) and 12.2(c) do not prevent a committee of directors, where authorised
by the Resolution of Directors appointing such committee or by a subsequent Resolution of Directors, from appointing a sub-committee and
delegating powers exercisable by the committee to the sub-committee. |
12.4 | The meetings and proceedings of each committee of directors consisting of two or more directors shall
be governed mutatis mutandis by the provisions of the Articles regulating the proceedings of directors so far as the same are not superseded
by any provisions in the Resolution of Directors establishing the committee. |
13.1 | The Company may by Resolution of Directors appoint officers of the Company at such times as may be considered
necessary or expedient. Such officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board of Directors, a Chief Executive Officer, one or more vice-presidents,
secretaries and treasurers and such other officers as may from time to time be considered necessary or expedient. Any number of offices
may be held by the same person. |
13.2 | The officers shall perform such duties as are prescribed at the time of their
appointment subject to any modification in such duties as may be prescribed thereafter by Resolution of Directors. In the absence of
any specific prescription of duties it shall be the responsibility of the Chairman of the Board to preside at meetings of directors
and Members, the Chief Executive Officer to manage the day to day affairs of the Company, the vice-presidents to act in order of
seniority in the absence of the Chief Executive Officer but otherwise to perform such duties as may be delegated to them by the
Chief Executive Officer, the secretaries to maintain the share
register, minute books and records (other than financial records) of the Company and to ensure compliance with all procedural requirements
imposed on the Company by applicable law, and the treasurer to be responsible for the financial affairs of the Company. |
| 13.3 | The emoluments of all officers shall be fixed by Resolution of Directors. |
13.4 | The officers of the Company shall hold office until their death, resignation or removal. Any officer elected
or appointed by the Directors may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by Resolution of Directors. Any vacancy occurring in
any office of the Company may be filled by Resolution of Directors. |
13.5 | The directors
may, by a Resolution of Directors, appoint any person, including a person who is a director, to be an agent of the Company. An agent
of the Company shall have such powers and authority of the directors, including the power and authority to affix the Seal, as are set
forth in the Articles or in the Resolution of Directors appointing the agent, except that no agent has any power or authority with respect
to the matters specified in Regulation 12.1. The Resolution of Directors appointing an agent may authorise the agent to appoint one or
more substitutes or delegates to exercise some or all of the powers conferred on the agent by the Company. The Directors may remove an
agent appointed by the Company and may revoke or vary a power conferred on him. |
14.1 | A director of the Company shall, forthwith after becoming aware of the fact that he is interested in a
transaction entered into or to be entered into by the Company, disclose the interest to all other Directors of the Company. |
14.2 | For the purposes of Regulation 14.1, a disclosure to all other Directors to the effect that a director
is a member, Director or officer of another named entity or has a fiduciary relationship with respect to the entity or a named individual
and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction which may, after the date of the entry or disclosure, be entered into with that
entity or individual, is a sufficient disclosure of interest in relation to that transaction. |
14.3 | A Director of the Company who is interested in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the
Company may: |
| (a) | vote on a matter relating to the transaction; |
| (b) | attend a meeting of Directors at which a matter relating to the transaction arises and be included among
the Directors present at the meeting for the purposes of a quorum; and |
| (c) | sign a document on behalf of the Company, or do any other thing in his capacity as a Director, that relates
to the transaction, and, subject to compliance with
the Act and these Articles shall not, by reason of his office be accountable to the Company for any benefit which he derives from such
transaction and no such transaction shall be liable to be avoided on the grounds of any such interest or benefit. |
15.1 | Subject to the limitations hereinafter provided the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate
against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in
connection with legal, administrative or investigative proceedings any person who: |
| (a) | is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending
or completed proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a
Director of the Company; or |
| (b) | is or was, at the request of the Company, serving as a Director of, or in any other
capacity is or was acting for, another company or a partnership, joint venture, trust or other Enterprise. |
15.2 | The
indemnity in Regulation 15.1 only applies if the person acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company
and, in the case of criminal proceedings, the Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. |
15.3 | The decision of the directors as to whether an Indemnitee acted honestly and in good faith and with a
view to the best interests of the Company and as to whether such Indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful
is, in the absence of fraud, sufficient for the purposes of the Articles, unless a question of law is involved. |
15.4 | The termination of any proceedings by any judgment, order, settlement, conviction
or the entering of a nolle prosequi does not, by itself, create a presumption that the person did not act honestly and in good faith and
with a view to the best interests of the Company or that such Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. |
15.5 | The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, purchase or furnish similar protection or make other
arrangements including, but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond in relation to any Indemnitee or
who at the request of the Company is or was serving as a Director, officer or liquidator of, or in any other capacity is or was acting
for, another Enterprise, against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by him in that capacity, whether or not the Company
has or would have had the power to indemnify him against the liability as provided in these Articles. |
16.1 | The Company shall keep the following documents at the office of its registered agent: |
| (a) | the Memorandum and the Articles; |
| (b) | the share register, or a copy of the share register; |
| (c) | the register of directors, or a copy of the register of directors; and |
| (d) | copies of all notices and other documents filed by the Company with the Registrar
of Corporate Affairs in the previous 10 years. |
16.2 | If the Company maintains only a copy of the share register or a copy of the register
of directors at the office of its registered agent, it shall: |
| (a) | within fifteen (15) days of any change in either register, notify the registered
agent in writing of the change; and |

Dear Sirs and/or Madams,
We act as British Virgin Islands counsel to Intelligent Group
Limited, a business company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (the Company).
References in this letter to the
Rule means a rule of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC Rules unless the
context indicates otherwise.
The Company has advised us that
it intends to follow its British Virgin Islands home country practices in lieu of the requirements of (1) Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 5635(d),
which, as informed by the US counsel of the Company, sets forth the circumstances under which shareholder approval is required prior to
an issuance of securities, other than in a public offering, equal to 20% or more of the voting power outstanding at a price less than
the lower of: (x) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement;
or (y) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the common stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately
preceding the signing of the binding agreement, and (2) Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 5640
Voting Rights, which, as informed by the US counsel of the Company, states that “Nasdaq will accept any action or issuance
relating to the voting rights structure of a non-U.S. Company . . . that is not prohibited by the Company’s home country law.” In
exempting themselves from these Nasdaq Rules, as well as the Section 16 proxy rules of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company
is complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3)(A), which provides (with certain exceptions not relevant to the conclusions expressed
herein) that a foreign private issuer (such as the Company) may follow its home country practice in lieu of the requirements of the Nasdaq
Marketplace Rule 5600 Series.
The Company has advised us that
it intends to follow the practice in its home country of the British Virgin Islands by:
| (i) | re-designating its ordinary shares of a single class each
with a par value of US$0.00001 (issued and unissued) of the Company (the Ordinary
Shares) that (a) all the currently issued 13,125,000 Ordinary Shares be and are re-designated into Class A ordinary shares
each with a par value of US$0.00001 with one (1) vote per share but with all rights and restrictions remaining identical to the Ordinary
Shares (the Class A Ordinary Shares) on a one for one basis, (b)
the remaining authorised but unissued Ordinary Shares be and are re-designated into (i) 436,875,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii)
50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares each with a par value of US$0.00001 with fifty (50) votes per share (the Class
B Ordinary Shares) on a one for one basis and (c) such that the Company will be authorised to issue a maximum of 500,000,000
shares each with a par value of US$0.00001 divided into (i) 450,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) 50,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares (the Re-designation); |

|
| (ii) | subject to the Re-designation taking effect, adopting a set of amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association (the Amended and Restated M&A)
in substitution for the Memorandum and Articles (as defined below) to reflect the Re-designation and set out the rights and privileges
of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares; and |
| (iii) | to be effective after the Re-designation and the adoption of the Amended and Restated
M&A, repurchasing 1,500,000 Class A Ordinary Shares from Ms. Wai Lau, the Company’s majority shareholder, and issuing 1,500,000 Class
B Ordinary Shares to Ms. Wai Lau for good and valuable consideration, which will result in an increase of more than 20% in the Company’s
voting rights. |
To enact the aforementioned transactions,
the Company intends to approve the relevant actions by a resolution consented in writing by a majority of the votes of Ordinary Shares
entitled to vote thereon.
Under British Virgin Islands law,
the Company’s practice of following the provisions of the laws of the British Virgin Islands in lieu of the Rules is not prohibited
under any statutory legal provision of the British Virgin Islands, unless it is otherwise specified in the Company’s memorandum and articles
of association. Based upon our review of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association adopted on 20 March 2024 and
filed with the Registry of Corporate Affairs of the British Virgin Islands on 21 March 2024 (the Memorandum
and Articles), there is no requirement under the Memorandum and Articles requiring the Company to comply with the aforesaid
requirements under the Rules.
We have made no investigation of
and express no opinion in relation to the laws, rules or regulations of any jurisdiction other than those of the British Virgin Islands.
Specifically, we have made no independent investigation of the laws of the State of New York or the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC Rules, and
we express no opinion as to the meaning, validity or effect of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC Rules. This advice is to be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the British Virgin Islands and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and
practice in the British Virgin Islands. This advice is issued solely for your benefit and is not to be relied upon by any other person,
firm or entity or in respect of any other matter.
Yours faithfully
