PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

Our History and Corporate Structure

The following paragraph has been added on page 4:

        We were required under PRC law to make an initial capital contribution of RMB990,000 in Beijing Miyuan by April 25, 2011. However, in order for us to have made the capital contribution, Beijing Miyuan was required to have obtained a foreign exchange registration certificate from the local branch of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE. A prerequisite to Beijing Miyuan receiving such foreign exchange registration certificate was that the PRC residents holding direct or indirect interests in our company, Ms. Haiyan Gong, our founder and chief executive officer, Mr. Yongqiang Qian, our chairman, Mr. Xu Liu, Mr. Fuping Yu, Mr. Cheng Li and Mr. Qingjun Zhu, complete their registrations and any updated registrations with the local SAFE office under SAFE Circular 75. Due to our reorganization, Ms. Haiyan Gong, Mr. Yongqiang Qian, and Mr. Xu Liu are required to amend their previous registrations and their ownership changes pursuant to the SAFE Circular No. 75 and Mr. Fuping Yu, Mr. Cheng Li and Mr. Qingjun Zhu are required to register in accordance with SAFE Circular No. 75. However, the registrations by these six PRC resident shareholders were not completed in time, and Beijing Miyuan was unable to obtain a foreign exchange registration certificate by April 25, 2011. As a result, we were unable to make the initial capital contribution before the prescribed statutory deadline. Under PRC law, Beijing Miyuan's Foreign Invested Enterprise Approval Certificate issued by the local office of the Ministry of Commerce is consequently deemed to be invalid. We are required to deregister Beijing Miyuan with the local Administration of Industry and Commerce, or AIC, office and return Beijing Miyuan's business license to the local AIC office for cancellation. In addition, the local AIC office may also revoke Beijing Miyuan's business license on its own initiative even if we do not voluntarily deregister Beijing Miyuan and return the business license. If Beijing

Miyuan is deregistered and its business license is returned to the local AIC for cancellation, or its business license is revoked by the local AIC office, Beijing Miyuan will no longer be a validly existing legal entity. See "Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Regulation of Our Business and to Our Structure—If Beijing Miyuan, one of our PRC subsidiaries, is deregistered or if its business license is cancelled or revoked by the government, we may be required to incur additional costs to reorganize our corporate structure" and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore SPVs by PRC residents may subject our PRC resident beneficial owners or our PRC subsidiaries to liabilities or penalties, limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our PRC subsidiaries' ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits to us or may otherwise adversely affect us."

Footnote (3) on page 6 (as amended) is set forth below:

(3)

The PRC residents holding direct or indirect interests in our company to which we have knowledge are in the process of registering and amending registrations with the local SAFE branch. These PRC residents are Ms. Haiyan Gong, our founder and chief executive officer, Mr. Yongqiang Qian, our chairman, Mr. Xu Liu, Mr. Fuping Yu, Mr. Qingjun Zhu and Mr. Cheng Li. Because these registrations are still in process, Beijing Miyuan was unable to obtain a foreign exchange registration certificate by April 25, 2011, the date on which the first installment of the capital contribution was required to be made. Jiayuan Hong Kong was thus unable to pay the first installment of the capital contribution. As a result, under PRC law, Beijing Miyuan's Foreign Invested Enterprise Approval Certificate issued by the local office of the Ministry of Commerce is consequently deemed to be invalid. We are required to deregister Beijing Miyuan with the local AIC office and return Beijing Miyuan's business license to the local AIC office for cancellation. In addition, the local AIC office may also revoke Beijing Miyuan's business license on its own initiative even if we do not voluntarily deregister Beijing Miyuan and return the business license. If Beijing Miyuan is deregistered and its business license is returned to the local AIC for cancellation, or its business license is revoked by the local AIC office, Beijing Miyuan will no longer be a validly existing legal entity. See "Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Regulation of Our Business and to Our Structure—If Beijing Miyuan, one of our PRC subsidiaries, is deregistered or if its business license is cancelled or revoked by the government, we may be required to incur additional costs to reorganize our corporate structure" and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore SPVs by PRC residents may subject our PRC resident beneficial owners or our PRC subsidiaries to liabilities or penalties, limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our PRC subsidiaries' ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits to us or may otherwise adversely affect us."

RISK FACTORS

Risks Relating to Regulation of Our Business and Our Structure

The following risk factor has been added on pages 29 to 30:

If Beijing Miyuan, one of our PRC subsidiaries, is deregistered or if its business license is cancelled or revoked by the government, we may be required to incur additional costs to reorganize our corporate structure.

        We were required under PRC law to make an initial capital contribution of RMB990,000 in Beijing Miyuan by April 25, 2011. However, in order for us to have made the capital contribution, Beijing Miyuan was required to have obtained a foreign exchange registration certificate from the local branch of the SAFE. A prerequisite to Beijing Miyuan receiving such foreign exchange registration certificate was that the PRC residents holding direct or indirect interests in our company, Ms. Haiyan Gong, our founder and chief executive officer, Mr. Yongqiang Qian, our chairman, Mr. Xu Liu, Mr. Fuping Yu, Mr. Cheng Li and Mr. Qingjun Zhu, complete their registrations and any updated registrations with the local SAFE office under SAFE Circular 75. Due to our reorganization, Ms. Haiyan Gong, Mr. Yongqiang Qian, and Mr. Xu Liu are required to amend their previous registrations and their ownership changes pursuant to the SAFE Circular No. 75 and Mr. Fuping Yu, Mr. Cheng Li and Mr. Qingjun Zhu are required to register in accordance with SAFE Circular No. 75. However, the registrations by these six PRC resident shareholders were not completed in time, and Beijing Miyuan was unable to obtain a foreign exchange registration certificate by April 25, 2011. As a result, we were unable to make the initial capital contribution before the prescribed statutory deadline. Under PRC law, Beijing Miyuan's Foreign Invested Enterprise Approval Certificate issued by the local office of the Ministry of Commerce is consequently deemed to be invalid. We are required to deregister Beijing Miyuan with the local AIC office and return Beijing Miyuan's business license to the local AIC office for cancellation. In addition, the local AIC office may also revoke Beijing Miyuan's business license on its own initiative even if we do not voluntarily deregister Beijing Miyuan and return the business

license. If Beijing Miyuan is deregistered and its business license is returned to the local AIC for cancellation, or its business license is revoked by the local AIC office, Beijing Miyuan will no longer be a validly existing legal entity. In light of this development, the series of contractual arrangements that provide us with effective control over Beijing Huaqianshu and Xique were assigned from Beijing Miyuan to Shanghai Miyuan in May 2011. See "—If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure for operating our China business do not comply with restrictions on foreign investment in the online dating services industry and prohibitions on privately funded non-enterprise institutions from engaging in profit-making business operations, we could be subject to severe penalties, including discontinuation of our operations" for more information about the compliance of our current structure and the enforceability of our current contractual arrangements.

        We intend to rectify our failure to make the Beijing Miyuan capital contribution and, once such capital contribution is made and all necessary licenses and registrations are obtained, we intend to re-assign the series of contractual arrangements that provide us with effective control over Beijing Huaqianshu and Xique from Shanghai Miyuan back to Beijing Miyuan. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to rectify our inability to make Beijing Miyuan's capital contribution and we may be required to incur additional costs to reorganize our corporate structure, which may include establishing another PRC subsidiary in Beijing to take the place of Beijing Miyuan.
