3.Opinion

 

Subject to the assumptions, observations, qualifications and limitations set out in this opinion, and to matters not disclosed to us, we are of the following opinion.

 

3.1The Company is incorporated under the Companies Act (as amended) of the Cayman Islands (the Companies Act), validly exists under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company and is in good standing with the Registrar.

 

3.2Based solely on our inspection of the Memorandum and Articles, the authorised share capital of the Company is US$50,000 divided into 400,000,000 Class A ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.0001 each and 100,000,000 preferred shares of a par value of US$0.0001 each.

 

3.3The issue and allotment of the Conversion Shares as contemplated by the Post-Effective Amendment and the Registration Statement, as applicable, have been duly authorised and, when allotted, issued and paid for as contemplated by the Post-Effective Amendment and the Registration Statement, as applicable, and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Note, the Conversion Shares will be legally issued and allotted, fully paid and non-assessable. As a matter of Cayman Islands law, a share is only issued when it has been entered in the register of members (shareholders).

 

3.4The statements under the caption “Cayman Islands Tax Considerations” in the preliminary prospectus forming part of the Post-Effective Amendment, to the extent that they constitute statements of Cayman Islands law, are accurate in all material respects and such statements constitute our opinion.

 

4.Qualifications

 

4.1This opinion is limited to the matters expressly stated in it; is given only as to, and based on, circumstances and matters of fact existing and known to us on the date of this opinion; and only relates to the laws of the Cayman Islands which are in force on the date of this opinion.

 

4.2We have made no investigation of, and express no opinion with respect to, the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands or the effect of any document under those laws. In particular, we express no opinion as to the meaning or effect of any foreign statutes referred to in any document referred to in this opinion. For the purposes of this opinion, we have only examined the documents listed in paragraph 1 above. We have not examined any term or document incorporated by reference, or otherwise referred to, whether in whole or part, in any document and we offer no opinion on any such term or document.

 

3

 

4.3Except as specifically stated herein, we make no comment with respect to any representations and warranties which may be made by or with respect to the Company in any of the documents or instruments cited in this opinion or otherwise with respect to the commercial terms of the transactions the subject of this opinion.

 

4.4Under Cayman Islands law, the register of members (shareholders) is prima facie evidence of title to shares and this register would not necessarily record a third party interest in such shares. However, there are certain limited circumstances where an application may be made to a Cayman Islands court for a determination on whether the register of members reflects the correct legal position. Further, the Cayman Islands court has the power to order that the register of members maintained by a company should be rectified where it considers that the register of members does not reflect the correct legal position.

 

4.5To maintain the Company in good standing, the Company:

 

(a)must pay all fees and penalties under the Companies Act; and

 

(b)must not be, to the Registrar’s knowledge, in default under the Companies Act.

 

4.6In this opinion the phrase non-assessable means, with respect to Class A Ordinary Shares in the Company, that a member shall not, solely by virtue of its status as a member, be liable for additional assessments or calls on Class A Ordinary Shares by the Company or its creditors (except in exceptional circumstances and subject to the Memorandum and Articles, such as involving fraud, the establishment of an agency relationship or an illegal or improper purpose or other circumstances in which a court may be prepared to pierce or lift the corporate veil).

 

5.Governing law

 

This opinion and any non-contractual obligations arising out of it, are governed by, and to be interpreted in accordance with, laws in force in the Cayman Islands on the date of this opinion.

 

6.Consent

 

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Post-Effective Amendment and to the reference to our name under the headings “Legal Matters”, “Risk Factors” and “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities” in the Post-Effective Amendment. In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Rules and Regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

 

Yours faithfully
