      transmission have been submitted;
 
  (v)   the legal capacity (Handlungsfähigkeit) of all natural persons executing any of the Documents;
 
  (vi)   that all Documents, including all certificates, dated prior to the date of this opinion letter remain true and accurate on and as of the date hereof, have not been changed, amended or altered as of or prior to the date of this opinion letter, in particular that the Board Resolutions (as defined in Schedule 2 attached hereto) have not lapsed, have not been revoked and that the Board Resolutions are in full force and effect as of the date hereof;
 
  (vii)   that each Board Resolution and each Shareholder Resolution (as defined in Schedule 2 attached hereto) respectively is a true record of the proceedings described therein which took place and such Board Resolution and Shareholder Resolution respectively remains in full force and effect without modification;
 
  (viii)   that the statements made in the Delegate Confirmations (as defined in Schedule 2 attached hereto) are true and accurate and that such confirmations have been validly issued and remain in full force and effect without modification;
 
  (ix)   the accuracy of all factual information contained in the Documents and that the Documents are all documents executed and delivered by the Companies in connection with the transactions described in the Documents; and
 
  (x)   that no fraud, duress, undue influence, misrepresentation, or material mistake of fact has occurred or is continuing in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Documents.
4.   OPINION
 
    Based upon the foregoing examination and assumptions and subject to the qualifications and exceptions set forth herein, and further subject to any matters not disclosed to us, it is our opinion so far as the laws of Switzerland are concerned, that:
  (1)   each of the Companies is a share corporation (Aktiengesellschaft) duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Switzerland; and
 
  (2)   each of the Companies has the power and authority to execute and enter into the Final Transaction Documents to which it is a party and such Final Transaction Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the relevant Company.
5.   QUALIFICATIONS
 
    This opinion is subject to the following qualifications:
  (i)   We are members of the Zurich bar and do not hold ourselves to be experts in any laws other than the laws of Switzerland. As the Final Transaction Documents are

 


 

     
PESTALOZZI      attorneys at law   7 / 12
Registration Statement on Form F-4 — Legal Opinion of Swiss Counsel    
      governed by foreign law only our understanding of the extent, scope and consequences of the obligations incurred by each of the Companies under the Final Transaction Documents is limited.
 
  (ii)   The extracts from the commercial register: (i) do not necessarily reveal whether, as of the date to which they relate, a company has ceased its activities, is being wound-up, has been voided, or has been merged with another, a stay of proceedings has been decided by the court, or a declaration that the company has ceased its payments has been filed, or a petition has been filed or an order made for safeguard procedure, judicial rehabilitation or judicial liquidation, as notice of such matters may not need to be filed, may not have been filed immediately or may not have been entered on the record immediately; (ii) does not contain any information as to whether a composition with creditors is being negotiated or has been entered into, as notice of such matters is not filed with the commercial register; and do not reveal whether insolvency proceedings have been commenced outside of Switzerland.
 
  (iii)   In this opinion, Swiss legal concepts are mostly expressed in English terms and not in their original German, French or Italian terms (none of which is controlling). The concepts concerned may not be identical to the concepts described by the same English terms as they exist under the laws of other jurisdictions. This opinion may, therefore, only be relied upon subject to the reservation that any issues of interpretation or liability arising hereunder will be governed by Swiss law.
 
  (iv)   Undertakings of a Swiss company which are predominantly for the benefit of its direct or indirect parent or sister companies are subject to the limitation imposed by the general principle that a Swiss company is only bound by acts within its corporate purpose, the protection of its capital (Article 680 of the Swiss Code of Obligations, “CO”) and the prevention of unlawful distributions (Article 678 CO). While it is our belief that the object clauses of the articles of incorporation of each of the Companies and the Swiss limitation languages in the Final Transaction Documents sufficiently takes into account these limitations imposed by mandatory Swiss law, there is no Supreme Court authority at this time which would confirm our understanding.
 
  (v)   We offer no opinion as to any tax or custom duties questions (in particular to the tax effects and consequences of the execution and performance of the Final Transaction Documents and payments made thereunder), or as to any commercial, accounting, calculating, auditing or other non-legal matter.
 
  (vi)   Our opinion is subject to limitations imposed by bankruptcy, insolvency (incl., but not limited to, Article 725 CO) liquidation or other similar law of general application and equitable principles of general application (including, but not limited to, the abuse of rights (Rechtsmissbrauch) and the principle of good faith

      (Grundsatz von Treu und Glauben).
 
  (vii)   The opinion herein is expressed as of the date hereof with no duty on the part of us to inform you of any subsequent change in fact or law, or both, which would affect its accuracy.
    We have not expressed, and hereby disclaim, any opinion with respect to the validity and enforceability of the Final Transaction Documents.
 
6.   CHOICE OF LAW AND RELIANCE
  (i)   This opinion is governed by and to be construed in accordance with Swiss law. The exclusive place of jurisdiction is Zurich, Switzerland.
 
  (ii)   This opinion is for the benefit of the Addressees in connection with the transactions referred to in this opinion letter and is strictly limited to the matters stated herein. It does not extend, and is not to be extended by implication, to any other matter.
 
  (iii)   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 heading “Validity of the Securities” in the prospectus contained therein. In giving such consent, we do not hereby concede that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, nor do we thereby admit that we are experts with respect to any part of such Registration Statement within the meaning of the term “expert” as used in the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
 
  (iv)   Debevoise & Plimpton LLP may for the sole purpose of their exhibit 5 opinion to be provided in connection with the Registration Statement, rely on the opinions set forth under Section 4 (above) of our opinion letter.
