We have been advised that the Securities may be issued and sold or delivered from time to time as set forth in the Registration Statement, any amendment thereto, the Prospectus contained therein and Prospectus Supplements pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act and that this opinion requires to be furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act.

In giving this opinion we have relied upon the assumptions set out in Schedule 2, which we have not independently verified.
We are Cayman Islands Attorneys at Law and express no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of the Cayman Islands in force and as interpreted at the date of this opinion. We have not, for the purposes of this opinion, made any investigation of the laws, rules or regulations of any other jurisdiction. Except as explicitly stated herein, we express no opinion in relation to any representation or warranty contained in the Documents nor upon matters of fact or the commercial terms of the transactions contemplated by the Documents.
Based upon the foregoing examinations and assumptions and upon such searches as we have conducted and having regard to legal considerations which we consider relevant, and subject to the qualifications set out in Schedule 3, and under the laws of the Cayman Islands, we give the following opinions in relation to the matters set out below.
1.The Company is an exempted company duly incorporated with limited liability, validly existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands and is in good standing with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands (the "Registrar").
2.With respect to Ordinary Shares, when (a) the board of Directors (the "Board") has taken all necessary corporate action to approve the issuance thereof, the terms of the offering thereof and related matters, and (b) either (i) the provisions of the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement approved by the Board have been satisfied and payment of the consideration specified therein (being not less than the par value of the Ordinary Shares) has been made, or (ii) if such Ordinary Shares are issuable upon conversion, exchange, redemption, repurchase or exercise of any other Security, the terms of such Security or the instrument governing such Security providing for such conversion, exchange, redemption, repurchase or exercise for Ordinary Shares, as approved by the Board, have been satisfied and the consideration approved by the Board (being not less than the par value of the Ordinary Shares) received, and (c) valid book-entry notations are made in the register of members of the Company in respect of such Ordinary Shares, the Ordinary Shares will be recognised as having been duly authorised and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
3.With respect to Preferred Shares, when (a) the Board has taken all necessary corporate action to approve and establish the terms of the Preferred Shares and to approve the issuance thereof, the terms of the offering thereof and related matters, and (b) either (i) the provisions of the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement approved by the Board have been satisfied and payment of the consideration specified therein (being not less than the par value of the Preferred Shares) has been made, or (ii) if such Preferred Shares are issuable upon conversion, exchange, redemption, repurchase or exercise of any other Security, the terms of such Security or the instrument governing such Security providing for such conversion, exchange, redemption, repurchase or exercise for Preferred Shares, as approved by the Board, have been satisfied and the consideration approved by the Board (being not less than the par value of the Preferred Shares) received, and (c) valid book-entry notations are made in the register of members of the Company, the Preferred Shares will be recognised as having been duly authorised and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
4.With respect to the Depositary Shares, when (a) the Board has taken all necessary corporate action to approve and establish the terms of the deposit agreement relating
to the Depositary Shares (the “Deposit Agreement”), the issuance of the shares to be subject thereto to the applicable depositary, and the terms of the offering thereof and related matters, (b) the Deposit Agreement has been duly executed by the Company and a depositary, (c) the Depositary Shares have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered in accordance with the Deposit Agreement and applicable definitive underwriting, purchase or similar agreement, and (d) payment of the consideration for the shares subject to the Deposit Agreement has been received by the Company (being not less than the par value of the shares subject to the Deposit Agreement) and valid book-entry notations have been made in the share register of the Company in respect of the shares subject to the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary Shares will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.
5.With respect to the Debt Securities, the applicable indenture (each an "Applicable Indenture") will constitute the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company and when such Debt Securities have been duly executed, authenticated, issued, delivered and paid for as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement and in accordance with the terms of the applicable indenture, such Debt Securities will be validly issued and constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.
6.With respect to the Warrants, when (a) the Warrant Agreement has been duly executed and delivered, (b) the Warrants have been duly executed by the Company and duly authenticated by the Warrant Agent in accordance with the terms of that Warrant Agreement, and (c) the Warrants have been delivered to, paid for and countersigned by the relevant underwriters pursuant to the terms of a warrant underwriting agreement, the Warrants will be validly issued and constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

This opinion is limited to the matters referred to herein and shall not be construed as extending to any other matter or document not referred to herein.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name in the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement under the caption “Legal Matters.” In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

SCHEDULE 3
QUALIFICATIONS
1.The term "enforceable" and its cognates as used in this opinion means that the obligations assumed by any party under the Documents are of a type which the Courts enforce. This does not mean that those obligations will necessarily be enforced in all circumstances in accordance with their terms. In particular:
(a)enforcement of obligations and the priority of obligations may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganisation, readjustment of debts or moratorium and other laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights of creditors or by prescription or lapse of time;
(b)enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity and, in particular, the availability of certain equitable remedies such as injunction or specific performance of an obligation may be limited where a Court considers damages to be an adequate remedy;
(c)claims may become barred under statutes of limitation or may be or become subject to defences of set-off, counterclaim, estoppel and similar defences;
(d)where obligations are to be performed in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands, they may not be enforceable in the Cayman Islands to the extent that performance would be illegal under the laws of, or contrary to the public policy of, that jurisdiction;
(e)a judgment of a Court may be required to be made in Cayman Islands dollars;
(f)to the extent that any provision of the Documents is adjudicated to be penal in nature, it will not be enforceable in the Courts; in particular, the enforceability of any provision of the Documents that is adjudicated to constitute a secondary obligation which imposes a detriment on the contract-breaker out of all proportion to any legitimate interest of the innocent party in the enforcement of the primary obligation may be limited;
(g)to the extent that the performance of any obligation arising under the Documents would be fraudulent or contrary to public policy, it will not be enforceable in the Courts;
(h)in the case of an insolvent liquidation of the Company, its liabilities are required to be translated into the functional currency of the Company (being the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operated as at the commencement of the liquidation) at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of commencement of the voluntary liquidation or the day on which the winding up order is made (as the case may be);
(i)a Court will not necessarily award costs in litigation in accordance with contractual provisions in this regard; and
(j)the effectiveness of terms in the Documents excusing any party from a liability or duty otherwise owed or indemnifying that party from the consequences of incurring such liability or breaching such duty shall be construed in accordance with, and shall be limited by, applicable law, including generally applicable rules and principles of common law and equity.
2.Cayman Islands stamp duty will be payable on any Document if it is executed in or brought to the Cayman Islands, or produced before a Court.
3.A certificate, determination, calculation or designation of any party to the Documents as to any matter provided therein might be held by a Court not to be conclusive, final and binding, notwithstanding any provision to that effect therein contained, for example if it could be shown to have an unreasonable, arbitrary or improper basis or in the event of manifest error.
4.If any provision of the Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, severance of such provision from the remaining provisions will be subject to the discretion of the Courts notwithstanding any express provisions in this regard.
5.Every conveyance or transfer of property, or charge thereon, and every payment obligation and judicial proceeding, made, incurred, taken or suffered by a company at a time when that company was unable to pay its debts within the meaning of section 93 of the Companies Act (As Amended) of the Cayman Islands (the "Companies Act"), and made or granted in favour of a creditor with a view to giving that creditor a preference over the other creditors of the company, would be invalid pursuant to section 145(1) of the Companies Act, if made, incurred, taken or suffered within the six months preceding the commencement of a liquidation of the Company. Such actions will be deemed to have been made with a view to giving such creditor a preference if it is a "related party" of the company. A creditor shall be treated as a related party if it has the ability to control the company or exercise significant influence over the company in making financial and operating decisions.
6.Any disposition of property made at an undervalue by or on behalf of a company and with an intent to defraud its creditors (which means an intention to wilfully defeat an obligation owed to a creditor), shall be voidable:
(a)under section 146(2) of the Companies Act at the instance of the company's official liquidator; and
(b)under the Fraudulent Dispositions Act, at the instance of a creditor thereby prejudiced,
provided that in either case, no such action may be commenced more than six years after the date of the relevant disposition.
7.If any business of a company has been carried on with intent to defraud creditors of the company or creditors of any other person or for any fraudulent purpose, the Court may declare that any persons who were knowingly parties to the carrying on of the business of the company in such manner are liable to make such contributions, if any, to the company's assets as the Court thinks proper.
8.Notwithstanding any purported date of execution in any of the Documents, the rights and obligations therein contained take effect only on the actual execution and delivery thereof but the Documents may provide that they have retrospective effect as between the parties thereto alone.
9.The obligations of the Company may be subject to restrictions pursuant to United Nations and United Kingdom sanctions extended to the Cayman Islands by the Order of Her Majesty in Council.
10.Under the laws of the Cayman Islands, persons who are not party to a Document have no direct rights or obligations under such Document unless:
(a)such Document expressly provides in writing that such persons may in their own right enforce a term of such Document under The Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act, 2014 of the Cayman Islands;
(b)they are persons acting pursuant to powers contained in a deed poll; or
(c)they are beneficiaries under properly constituted trusts.
11.Our opinion as to good standing is based solely upon receipt of the Certificate of Good Standing issued by the Registrar. The Company shall be deemed to be in good standing under section 200A of the Companies Act on the date of issue of the certificate if all fees and penalties under the Companies Act have been paid and the Registrar has no knowledge that the Company is in default under the Companies Act.
12.We express no opinion upon the effectiveness of any clause of the Documents which provides that the terms of such Document may only be amended in writing.
13.Where a document provides for an exclusive or non-exclusive jurisdiction clause submitting (or permitting the submission) to the jurisdiction of the Courts, a Court may decline to accept jurisdiction in any matter where:
(a)it determines that some other jurisdiction is a more appropriate or convenient forum;
(b)another court of competent jurisdiction has made a determination in respect of the same matter; or
(c)litigation is pending in respect of the same matter in another jurisdiction.
Proceedings may be stayed in the Cayman Islands if concurrent proceedings in respect of the same matter are or have been commenced in another jurisdiction.
14.Where a document provides for an exclusive jurisdiction clause submitting to a jurisdiction of a court other than the Courts, notwithstanding any provision of the document providing for the exclusive jurisdiction of a court other than the Courts, the Court may, if it is satisfied that it is just and equitable to allow such proceedings to continue in the Cayman Islands:
(a)decline to stay proceedings issued in contravention of such provision; or
(b)grant leave to serve Cayman Islands proceedings out of the Cayman Islands.
15.If:
(a)the performance of the Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby constitutes an arrangement which facilitates the retention or control by or on behalf of another person of terrorist property (as defined in the Terrorism Act) by concealment, by removal from the jurisdiction or by transfer to nominees; or
(b)any party to the Documents:
(i)by any means directly or indirectly knowingly provides or collects property (as defined under the Terrorism Act) or attempts to do so, with the intention that the property should be used or in the knowledge that it will be used in whole or in part:
(A)in order to carry out an act of terrorism (as defined under the Terrorism Act);
(B)by a terrorist (as defined under the Terrorism Act) to facilitate the first-mentioned person’s activities related to acts of terrorism or membership in a terrorist organisation (as defined under the Terrorism Act); or
(C)by a terrorist organisation;
(ii)uses property for the purposes of terrorism;
(iii)possesses property and intends that it should be used, or has reasonable cause to suspect that it may be used, for the purposes of the financing of acts of terrorism, terrorists or terrorist organisations;
(iv)possesses or acquires property which that person knows or has reasonable cause to suspect has been used, directly or indirectly, in the commission of the financing of acts of terrorism, terrorists or terrorist organisations;
(v)acquires property as a result of or in connection with acts of terrorism; or
(vi)enters into or becomes concerned in an arrangement as a result of which terrorist property is made available or is to be made available to another and knows or has reasonable cause to suspect that property will or may be used for the purposes of the financing of acts of terrorism, terrorists or terrorist organisations,
then an offence may be committed under the Terrorism Act.
16.We express no opinion on and our opinions are subject to the effect, if any, of any provisions of any Document that relies upon financial or numerical computation.
17.The Company may be required to submit (or to cause to be submitted on its behalf) a notification and report to the Cayman Islands Department for International Tax Cooperation to ensure compliance with any obligations it may have under the laws of the Cayman Islands relating to the automatic exchange of financial account information.
