The securities to be registered hereby are ordinary shares, nominal value €0.10 per share, and warrants to purchase ordinary shares, of Porto Holdco B.V., a Dutch private limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) which in connection with the Business Combination described in the Registration Statement (as defined below), will be converted to a Dutch public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) (the “Registrant”). The description of the ordinary shares and warrants set forth under the heading “Description of Holdco Securities” in the Registrant’s prospectus forming part of its Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-215162), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 19, 2016, as thereafter amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Registration Statement”) to which this Form 8-A relates is incorporated by reference herein. Any form of prospectus or prospectus supplement to the Registration Statement that includes such descriptions and that are subsequently filed are hereby also incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 2. Exhibits.

Pursuant to the Instructions as to Exhibits with respect to Form 8-A, no exhibits are required to be filed because no other securities of the Registrant are registered on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC and the securities registered hereby are not being registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.
