Limitations and Qualifications

 

 

4.1

We 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 and the Governing Documents to statutes, rules, regulations, codes or judicial authority of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands;

 

 

 

 

(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 Documents or any of the Governing Documents, 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 Documents, the Governing Documents and any other agreements into which the Company may have entered or any other documents; or

 

 

 

 

(c)

as to whether the acceptance, execution or performance of the Company's obligations under the Registration Statement and/or the Governing Documents will result in the breach of or infringe any other agreement, deed or document entered into by or binding on the Company.

 
 
5

 

 

4.2

Under 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. A failure to file annual returns and pay annual filing fees may result in the Company being struck off the Register of Companies, following which its assets will vest in the Financial Secretary of the Cayman Islands and will be subject to disposition or retention for the benefit of the public of the Cayman Islands.

 

 

4.3

In good standing means only that as of the date of this opinion 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.

 

 

4.4

In this opinion the phrase “non-assessable” means, with respect to the Equity Securities, that a member of the Company shall not, by virtue of its status as a member of the Company, be liable for additional assessments or calls on such Equity Securities by the Company or its creditors (except in exceptional circumstances, such as involving fraud, the establishment of an agency relationship or an illegal or improper use or other circumstance in which a court may be prepared to pierce or lift the corporate veil).

 

 

4.5

We are not aware of any Cayman Islands authority as to when the courts would set aside the limited liability of a shareholder in a Cayman Islands company. Our opinion on the subject is based on the Companies Act and English common law authorities, the latter of which are persuasive but not binding in the courts of the Cayman Islands. Under English authorities, circumstances in which a court would attribute personal liability to a shareholder are very limited, and include: (a) such shareholder expressly assuming direct liability (such as a guarantee); (b) the company acting as the agent of such shareholder; and (c) the company being incorporated by or at the behest of such shareholder for the purpose of committing or furthering such shareholder’s fraud, or for a sham transaction otherwise carried out by such shareholder. In the absence of these circumstances, we are of the opinion that a Cayman Islands’ court would have no grounds to set aside the limited liability of a shareholder.

 

 

4.6

We have not reviewed the Governing Documents and our opinions are qualified accordingly.

 

 

4.7

The Company is prohibited by section 175 of the Companies Act from making any invitation to the public in the Cayman Islands to subscribe for any of its securities.

 

 

4.8

We reserve our opinion as to the extent to which the courts of the Cayman Islands would, in the event of any relevant illegality or invalidity, sever the relevant provisions of the Governing Documents and the Non-Equity Securities and enforce the remainder of the Governing Documents and the Non-Equity Securities or the transaction of which such provisions form a part, notwithstanding any express provisions in any Governing Document in this regard.

(b)

neither the execution or delivery of the Governing Documents nor the exercise by any party to the Governing Documents of its rights or the performance of its obligations under them contravene those laws or public policies.

 

16

There are no agreements, documents or arrangements (other than the documents expressly referred to in this opinion as having been examined by us) that materially affect or modify the Governing Documents or the transactions contemplated by Governing Documents or restrict the powers and authority of the Company in any way from entering into and performing its obligations under a duly authorised, executed and delivered Governing Documents.

 

 

17

The Company has obtained, or will obtain prior to execution, all consents, licences, approvals and authorisations of any governmental or regulatory authority or agency or of any other person that it is required to obtain pursuant to the laws of all relevant jurisdictions (other than those of the Cayman Islands) to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, proper performance and admissibility in evidence of the Governing Documents. Any conditions to which such consents, licences, approvals and authorisations are subject have been, and will continue to be, satisfied or waived by the parties entitled to the benefit of them.

 

 

18
