Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are licensed Chinese lawyers qualified to practice the law of the mainland of the People’s Republic of China other than the laws of Macao, Hong Kong and Taiwan (the “PRC”). We have acted as PRC legal counsel to Global Lights Acquisition Corp, a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), in connection with the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (Registration Statement)(the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act), in connection with the follow-on offering of the Company’s securities described therein.
In this Opinion, unless otherwise defined in the context, the capitalized terms shall have the same meaning as those defined in the Registration Statement.

4. | Our opinion is limited to the PRC Laws of general application on the date hereof. We do not purport to be experts on and do not purport to be generally familiar with or qualified to express legal opinions on any laws other than the laws of the PRC and accordingly express no legal opinion herein on any laws of any jurisdiction other than the PRC. |
5. | If any evidence comes to light that would indicate any of the Documents or materials referred to is incomplete, inaccurate or defective or if any of the assumptions upon which this opinion are based prove to be incorrect, we reserve the right to revise any relevant expression or conclusion contained in this opinion and/or issue a supplementary legal opinion, interpretation or revision to this opinion according to further certified facts as of that date. |
