Dear Sirs,

Re: Cloudary Corporation (the “Company”)

We have acted as special Cayman Islands legal counsel to the Company in connection with an initial public offering of certain Class B ordinary shares, par value US$0.01 each, in the Company (the “Shares”) as described in the prospectus contained in the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statement” which term does not include any other instrument or agreement whether or not specifically referred to therein or attached as an exhibit or schedule thereto) to be filed by the Company under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on the date hereof.

For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined and relied upon copies of the following documents:

 

(i) the Registration Statement; and

 

(ii) a draft of the prospectus (the “Prospectus”) contained in the Registration Statement.


We have also reviewed and relied upon (1) the memorandum and articles of association of the Company, (2) a copy of an undertaking from the Governor-in-Council of the Cayman Islands under the Tax Concessions Law (1999 Revision) dated 2 June, 2009, and (3) such other documents and made such enquiries as to questions of law as we have deemed necessary in order to render the opinion set forth below.

We have assumed (i) the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures, stamps and seals and the conformity to the originals of all copies of documents (whether or not certified) examined by us and the authenticity and completeness of the originals from which such copies were taken; (ii) the accuracy and completeness of all factual representations made in the Prospectus and Registration Statement and other documents reviewed by us, (iii) that there is no provision of the law of any jurisdiction, other than the Cayman Islands, which would have any implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein; (iv) the validity and binding effect under the laws of the United States of America of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and that the Registration Statement will be duly filed with or declared effective by the Commission; and (v) that the Prospectus, when published, will be in substantially the same form as that examined by us for purposes of this opinion.

We have made no investigation of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands. This opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in the Cayman Islands.

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the statements relating to certain Cayman Islands tax matters set forth under the caption “Taxation - Cayman Islands Taxation” in the Prospectus are true and accurate based on current law and practice at the date of this letter and that such statements constitute our opinion.
