4.OPINION

 

4.1Based on our scope of enquiry, our role in connection with the Proposed Listing, our review of the documents provided by 3KDSB as referred to in paragraph 3 and subject to the assumptions in Appendix 1 and the qualifications in Appendix 2, we are of the following opinion:

 

(a)Due incorporation and capacity

 

3KDSB has been duly incorporated and validly existing under the CA 2016 and is legally and beneficially owned by its shareholder, the Company, as at the date of this opinion. Based on the confirmation given by the management representatives and/or personnel of 3KDSB (the “Management”), all the issued and fully paid-up shares of 3KDSB are free and clear from all or any liens, claims, trust, mortgage, charge (whether fixed or floating), assignment over receivables, power of sale, hypothecation, pledge, lien, option, right of pre-emption, right of retention of title, third party right or interest or any other form of security interest or any obligation (including any conditional obligation) to create any of the same and where applicable, any caveat, prohibitory order or other restraints.

 

(b)Material agreements and contracts

 

To the best of our knowledge and based on the information and documents made available to us by 3KDSB, we are not aware nor have been informed by the Management of any material contracts (being contracts which are not within the ordinary course of business) which were entered into by 3KDSB during the Review Period and up to the LPD.

The directors of 3KDSB are not adjudged bankrupt pursuant to the bankruptcy searches conducted with the MDI and the result of CTOS searches.

 

(e)Litigation

 

To the best of our knowledge, CTOS search and based on the confirmation given by the Management and our review of the minutes of general meetings, members’ resolutions and directors’ resolutions for the Review Period and up to the LPD, 3KDSB is not involved in any material litigation, arbitration, mediation, industrial dispute, government investigation or administrative punishment (whether as plaintiff, defendant, third party or otherwise) or is pending or threatened by or against 3KDSB.

 

(f)Real property

 

To the best of our knowledge and based on the information and documents made available to us by 3KDSB, 3KDSB does not own any real property as at the LPD.

 

3KDSB has entered into a tenancy agreement with Hello Property (M) Sdn Bhd on 22 April 2026 for the premises located at Unit 19-2, The Boulevard, Mid Valley City, Lingkaran Syed Putra, 59200 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The said tenancy agreement has been stamped with requisite ad valorem stamp duty as prescribed under the Stamp Act 1949 and is legally binding, valid and enforceable under the applicable Malaysian laws.

Further, 3KDSB is in compliance with the Minimum Wages Order 2024, which came into operation on 1 February 2025, pursuant to which the minimum wage payable to employees is RM1,700.00. As at the LPD, we are not aware of any on-going or existing industrial disputes between 3KDSB and its employees.

Appendix 2 – Qualifications

 

For the purposes of the opinion, we are subject to the qualifications set out below:

 

1.This opinion is given on the basis of our understanding of the laws of Malaysia as at the date hereof. To the extent that any matter is not expressly provided for under Malaysian law, the interpretation, application, and enforcement of such laws are subject to the discretion of the relevant legislative, administrative, and judicial authorities in Malaysia. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that such authorities would not adopt a position contrary to the views expressed in this opinion.
  
2.The scope of our due diligence review is limited to legal matters under the laws of Malaysia. We express no opinion on any non-legal regulations or standards such as but not limited to any technical, scientific, actuarial, financial, and statistical or accounting matters, or any matters of fact.
  
3.We express no opinion on the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction other than Malaysia. In respect of the Registration Statement, we have assumed due compliance with all matters concerning the laws of all jurisdictions other than Malaysia.
  
4.We have relied on searches conducted at the CCM, the CTOS database, and the MDI. While we have exercised due care in conducting and reviewing such searches, the information obtained from such records may not be accurate, complete, or up to date. We do not accept any liability for any errors or omissions in the results of such searches.
  
5.We express no opinion as to whether a foreign court (applying its own conflict of laws rules) will act in accordance with the parties’ agreement as to dispute resolution mechanism and/or choice of law.
  
6.We express no opinion as to the ability of any party to perform its obligations under any contractual agreement.

In respect of any facts material to this opinion, we have relied, to the extent we consider appropriate, on representations, confirmations, certificates, and other statements provided by Management. We have not undertaken any independent investigation to verify the existence or absence of such facts, and no inference should be drawn as to our knowledge of such facts by reason of our acting as counsel in connection with this opinion.
  
12.This opinion is based solely on the documents and information provided to us, and save to the extent that any inaccuracy, inadequacy, or omission therein is or ought reasonably to have been apparent to us in the course of our professional review, we express no opinion as to the accuracy or completeness thereof and assume no responsibility for any such inaccuracy, inadequacy, or omission in such documents or information.
  
13.If any person for whose benefit this opinion is given is actually aware of, or believes there to be, any false or misleading statement or any omission of information requested to be provided to us in connection with the work performed by us in rendering this opinion, such person may not rely on this opinion in relation to such statement or omission and should seek independent legal advice on the relevant matter.
