3Opinions

 

On the basis of the examination of the Documents and assumptions referred to above and subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in paragraph 4 below, we are of the opinion that:

 

Corporate status

 

(a)The Company has been duly incorporated as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands and is validly existing and in good standing with the Registrar.

 

Authorised Shares

 

(b)Based solely on the Memorandum, the authorised share capital of the Company is US$31,250,000 divided into (i) 10,000,000,000 class A ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.0025 each (the Class A Ordinary Shares) and (ii) 2,500,000,000 class B ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.0025 each.

 

Valid Issuance of Class A Ordinary Shares

 

(c)With respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares, when

 

(i)the board of directors of the Company (the Board) has taken all necessary corporate actions to approve the issuance and allotment of the Class A Ordinary Shares, the terms of the offering of the Class A Ordinary Shares and any other related matters;

 

(ii)the provisions of the memorandum and articles of association of the Company then in effect and the applicable SPA approved by the Board have been satisfied and payment of the consideration specified therein (being not less than the par value of the Class A Ordinary Shares) has been made; and

 

(iii)valid entry has been made in the register of members of the Company reflecting such issuance of Class A Ordinary Shares as fully paid shares and the subscription price of such Class A Ordinary Shares (being not less than the par value of the Class A Ordinary Shares) has been fully paid in cash or other consideration approved by the Board,

 

the Class A Ordinary Shares will be recognised as having been duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Assuming that payment of the consideration set forth in the SPA has been made in full and no requirement to pay additional consideration is contained in any other document and subject to the satisfaction of any conditions or requirements set forth in the SPA or the Board Resolutions, the Class A Ordinary Shares will be duly authorised and validly issued and will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company.

4.1We offer no opinion:

 

(a)as to any laws other than the laws of the Cayman Islands, and we have not, for the purposes of this opinion, made any investigation of the laws of any other jurisdiction, and we express no opinion as to the meaning, validity, or effect of references in the Documents to statutes, rules, regulations, codes or judicial authority of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands; or

 

(b)except to the extent that this opinion expressly provides otherwise, as to the commercial terms of, or the validity, enforceability or effect of the Form S-8, the accuracy of representations, the fulfilment of warranties or conditions, the occurrence of events of default or terminating events or the existence of any conflicts or inconsistencies among the Form S-8 and any other agreements into which the Company may have entered or any other documents.

 

4.2Under the Companies Act (Revised) (Companies Act) of the Cayman Islands annual returns in respect of the Company must be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands, together with payment of annual filing fees.

4.3In good standing means only that as of the date of the Good Standing Certificate the Company is up-to-date with the filing of its annual returns and payment of annual fees with the Registrar of Companies. We have made no enquiries into the Company’s good standing with respect to any filings or payment of fees, or both, that it may be required to make under the laws of the Cayman Islands other than the Companies Act.

6Reliance

 

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm under the headings “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities”; and “Legal Matters” of the Registration Statement.
