QUALIFICATIONS

We have made no investigation of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than Bermuda.

This opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Bermuda and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in Bermuda.

This opinion is issued solely for the purposes of the filing of the Registration Statement and the offering of the Ordinary Shares by the Company and is not to be relied upon in respect of any other matter.

OPINION

The Company is duly incorporated and existing under the laws of Bermuda in good standing (meaning solely that it has not failed to make any filing with any Bermuda governmental authority under the Companies Act 1981, or to pay any Bermuda government fee or tax, which would make it liable to be struck off the Register of Companies and thereby cease to exist under the laws of Bermuda).

When issued and paid for as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Ordinary Shares other than the Issued Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable (which term means when used herein that no further sums are required to be paid by the holders thereof in connection with the issue of such shares).

Based solely upon a review of the register of members of the Company as at 25 April 2024, certified by the Secretary of the Company on 25 April 2024, upon the sale of any of the Issued Shares as contemplated by the Registration Statement, such Issued Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
