EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 1 to the annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 (the “Amendment No. 1”) of MYT Netherlands Parent B.V. (the “Company”), as originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 12, 2024 (the “Original Filing”), is being filed (i) to correct Exhibit 1.2 (Amended and Restated Rules of Procedure of the Supervisory Board of the Registrant), as an incorrect version inadvertently filed with the Original Filing, and (ii) to report that the Company (1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the Company was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days.

 

As required by Rule 12b-15 of the Exchange Act, we are also filing as exhibits to this Amendment No. 1 the certifications required under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment No. 1 and this Amendment No. 1 does not contain any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4, and 5 of the certifications have been omitted. Similarly, because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment, certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 have been omitted.

 

Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing. This Amendment No. 1 speaks as of the filing date of the Original Filing, or September 12, 2024. Other than as expressly set forth above, this Amendment No. 1 does not, and does not purport to, amend, update or restate the information in any other item of the Original Filing, or reflect any event that has occurred after the filing of the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and the Company’s filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.
