3 Opinions

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:

Valid Issuance of ESOP Shares

(a) The ESOP Shares to be issued under the 2023 Share Incentive Plan have been duly authorised by all necessary corporate actions of the Company under the Memorandum and Articles and when:

(i) issued and delivered in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles, the Resolutions and the terms of the 2023 Share Incentive Plan; and

(ii) the register of members of the Company has been duly updated to reflect the issuance of the ESOP Shares as fully paid shares,

will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

4 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 2023 Share Incentive Plan 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.

4.2 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 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.

4.4 In this opinion letter, the phrase “non-assessable” means, with respect to the issuance of ESOP Shares, that a shareholder shall not, in respect of the relevant ESOP Shares and in the absence of a contractual arrangement, or an obligation pursuant to the Memorandum and Articles, to the contrary, have any obligation to make further contributions to the Company’s assets (except in exceptional circumstances, such as involving fraud, the establishment of an agency relationship or an illegal or improper purpose or other circumstances in which a court may be prepared to pierce or lift the corporate veil).

5 Governing law of this opinion

5.1 This opinion is:

(a) governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the Cayman Islands;

(b) limited to the matters expressly stated in it; and

(c) confined to, and given on the basis of, the laws and practice in the Cayman Islands at the date of this opinion.

5.2 Unless otherwise indicated, a reference to any specific Cayman Islands legislation is a reference to that legislation as amended to, and as in force at, the date of this opinion.

6 Reliance

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Form S-8.

This opinion may be used only in connection with the Form S-8 while the 2023 Share Incentive Plan is effective.

Yours faithfully
