| * | On February 16, 2022, the Registrant changed its name from Alvotech Lux Holdings S.A.S. to Alvotech. Upon the closing of the Business Combination referred to in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333-261773), the legal form of Alvotech is expected to change from a simplified joint stock company (société par actions simplifiée) to a public limited liability company (société anonyme) and the name of the Registrant will remain “Alvotech.” |
| Item 1. | Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered. |
The securities to be registered hereby are ordinary shares with a nominal value of $0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) and warrants, each entitling the holder thereof to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Warrants”), of Alvotech (the “Company”).
The description of the Ordinary Shares and Warrants contained in the section entitled “Description of TopCo’s Securities” in the proxy statement/prospectus included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333-261773), as amended from time to time, (the “Registration Statement”), to which this Form 8-A relates, is incorporated herein by reference. Any form of prospectus or prospectus supplement to the Registration Statement that includes such descriptions and that is subsequently filed is also incorporated by reference herein.
| Item 2. | Exhibits. |
Pursuant to the Instructions as to Exhibits for Form 8-A, no exhibits are required to be filed herewith or incorporated by reference, 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.
