	(a)	the capacity and power;

	(b)	taken all necessary action; and

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

3.2	Ordinary Shares:

	(a)	The Ordinary Shares to be offered and issued by the Company as contemplated by the Registration Statement have been duly authorised for issue, and when issued by the Company against payment in full of the consideration as set out in the Registration Statement and in accordance with the terms set out in the Registration Statement, such Ordinary Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

	(b)	As a matter of Cayman Islands law, a share is only issued when it has been entered in the register of members of the company.

3.3	Power, capacity and authorisation: the Company has the corporate power and capacity to enter into, and perform its obligations under, each Document and has taken the necessary corporate action to authorise its execution of, and performance of its obligations under, that Document.

3.4	Legal validity: the Company’s obligations under each Document are legal, valid, binding and enforceable.

4.	Qualifications and observations

	This opinion is subject to the following qualifications and observations.

4.1	This opinion is subject to all laws relating to bankruptcy, dissolution, insolvency, re-organisation, winding up, liquidation, moratorium, court schemes and other laws and legal procedures of general application affecting or relating to the rights of creditors.

4.2	When the term enforceable or binding is used in paragraph 3 (Opinion) of this opinion, it means that an obligation is of a type that the Grand Court will enforce. It does not mean that the obligation will necessarily be enforced in all circumstances or in accordance with its terms or that any particular remedy will be available. In particular, but without limitation:

	(a)	enforcement may be prevented by statutory provisions relating to the setting aside of fraudulent or voidable preferences, undervalue transactions, voidable floating charges and disclaiming of onerous property;

	(b)	enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity (for example, equitable remedies like specific performance and injunction are discretionary and may not be available where damages are considered to be an adequate remedy);

	(c)	enforcement of obligations may be invalidated by reason of duress, fraud, misrepresentation, mistake or undue influence;

	(d)	contractual provisions that require a defaulting party to pay a sum that is out of all proportion to the innocent party’s legitimate interest in the agreement being performed or which seek to punish a defaulting party may be held to be unenforceable on the ground that they constitute penalties;

	(e)	provisions in an agreement or in a Cayman Islands company’s memorandum or articles of association that fetter any statutory power may not be enforceable;

	(f)	the Grand Court will not enforce the terms of an agreement if:

	(i)	they are, or their performance would be, illegal or contrary to public policy in the Cayman Islands or in any other jurisdiction; or

	(ii)	they would conflict with or breach applicable sanctions or exchange control regulations;

Page 5 of 7

(g)

the Grand Court may not enforce the terms of an agreement:

	(i)	for the payment or reimbursement of, or indemnity against, the costs of enforcement (actual or contemplated) or of litigation brought before the Grand Court or foreign courts or where the Grand Court or foreign courts have themselves made an order for costs;

	(ii)	that constitute an agreement to negotiate or an agreement to agree;

	(iii)	that would involve the enforcement of any foreign revenue, penal or other public laws or an indemnity in respect of any of these laws;

	(iv)	that seek to exclude the jurisdiction of the Grand Court;

	(v)	that relate to confidentiality (which may be overridden by the requirements of legal process);

	(vi)	that provide that any of the terms of that agreement can only be amended or waived in writing (and not orally or by course of conduct); or

	(vii)	that permit the severance of illegal, invalid or unenforceable terms;

	(h)	a judgment of the Grand Court or a foreign court given in respect of contractual obligations may be held to supersede them (so they may not survive the judgment even if expressed to do so);

	(i)	the Grand Court may refuse to allow unjust enrichment;

	(j)	claims may become time barred or may be subject to rights and defences of abatement, acquiescence, counter-claim, estoppel, frustration, laches, set-off, waiver and similar defences; and

	(k)	the effectiveness of terms that seek to exclude or limit a liability or duty otherwise owed, or to indemnify a person in respect of a loss caused by the act or omission of that person, may be limited by law.

4.3	The Grand Court may:

(a)

hold that despite any term of an agreement to the contrary:

	(i)	any certificate, calculation, determination or designation of any party to the agreement is not conclusive, final and/or binding;

	(ii)	any person exercising any discretion, judgment or opinion under the agreement must act in good faith and in a reasonable manner; and

	(iii)	any power conferred by the agreement on one party to require another party to execute any documents or do any things the first party requires must be exercised reasonably; and

(b)

imply terms (for example, good faith between parties in relation to the performance of obligations) into an agreement governed by Cayman Islands law.

4.4	Where a foreign law is expressly selected to govern an agreement:

	(a)	matters of procedure upon enforcement of the agreement and assessment or quantification of damages will be determined by the Grand Court in accordance with Cayman Islands law;

	(b)	the proprietary effects of the agreement may be determined by the Grand Court in accordance with the domestic law of the place where the relevant property is taken to be located;

Page 6 of 7

	(c)	the mode of performance of the agreement may be determined by the Grand Court in accordance with the law of the place of performance; and

	(d)	that law may not be applied by the Grand Court to non-contractual obligations arising out of the agreement (even if it is expressly selected to do so).

4.5	Under Cayman Islands law, the register of members is prima facie evidence of title to shares and this register would not 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. As far as we are aware, such applications are rarely made in the Cayman Islands and for the purposes of the opinion given in paragraph 3.2, there are no circumstances or matters of fact known to us on the date of this opinion letter which would properly form the basis for an application for an order for rectification of the register of members of the Company, but if such an application were made in respect of the Ordinary Shares, then the validity of such shares may be subject to re-examination by a Cayman Islands court.

4.6	In this opinion, the phrase “non-assessable” means, with respect to the issuance of shares, that a shareholder shall not, in respect of the relevant shares and in the absence of a contractual arrangement, or an obligation pursuant to the memorandum and articles of association, to the contrary, have any obligation to make further contributions to the Company’s assets (except in exceptional circumstances, 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.	Limitations

5.1	This opinion is limited to the matters expressly stated in it and it is given solely in connection with the Company’s entry into the Documents to which it is party.

5.2	For the purposes of this opinion, we have only examined the documents listed in paragraph 1.1 above.

5.3	We offer no opinion:

	(a)	on whether the commercial terms of any Document reflect or achieve the intentions of the parties (unless otherwise expressly stated in this opinion);

	(b)	on any factual statement, representation or warranty made or given in any Document unless otherwise expressly stated in this opinion; or

	(c)	as to whether the parties to any Document will be able to perform their obligations under it; or

	(d)	as to the title or interest of any party to or in, or the existence or value of, any property or collateral the subject of any Document.

5.4	We 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.

5.5	We assume no obligation to advise the Addressee (or any person we give consent to rely on this opinion) in relation to changes of fact or law that may have a bearing on the continuing accuracy of this opinion.
