Re: Legal Opinion on Certain Hong Kong Legal Matters

Dear Sirs or Madams,

1.

We are instructed by Junee Limited (the “Company”), a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, in connection with the Company’s proposed initial public offering (the “IPO”) of a certain number of ordinary shares of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) as set forth in the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1, including all amendments or supplements thereto (collectively, the “Registration Statement”), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) in relation to the IPO; and (b) the Company’s proposed listing of the Ordinary Shares with the NASDAQ Capital Market. We have acted as Hong Kong legal advisers to OPS Interior Design Consultant Limited (the “Hong Kong Company”; and collectively with the Company, the “Group”), a subsidiary of the Company incorporated with limited liability in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Hong Kong”).

2.

We confirm that we are lawyers qualified to practice in Hong Kong and to give this legal opinion (the “Opinion”).

3. For the purpose of this Opinion, we have carried out due diligence on the Hong Kong Company, reviewed and examined copies of the Registration Statement, and such other documents as we have considered necessary or advisable for the purpose of rendering this Opinion, provided to us by the Company and the Hong Kong Company or obtained through public searches (collectively the “Documents”). Where certain facts were not independently established and verified by us, we have relied upon statements made by, among others, appropriate representatives of the Company or the Hong Kong Company.

4. This Opinion is limited to and is given on the basis of the current laws in Hong Kong as at the date hereof. We have not made any investigation of, and do not express or imply any opinion on, the laws of any other jurisdiction other than the laws of Hong Kong as at the date hereof.

1/6

 

5. Based on the due diligence results, the Hong Kong Company has not passed a voluntary winding up resolution and no petition has been presented to or order made by any courts in Hong Kong for the winding up or administration of the Hong Kong Company and that no receiver has been appointed in relation to the Hong Kong Company or any of its assets or revenues.

6. Subject to the Assumptions and Qualifications listed in the Schedule hereto and subject to any matters not disclosed to us, and having regard to such considerations of the laws of Hong Kong in force as at the date of this Opinion as we consider relevant, we are of the opinion that:

a) the description of Hong Kong laws and the legal matters relating to the Company’s business activities in Hong Kong under the captions “Prospectus Summary”, “Risk Factors”, “Our History and Corporate Structure”, “Business”, “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities”, “Regulations”, “Taxation - Hong Kong Profits Taxation” and “Legal Matters” correctly and fairly summarize and describe the matters referred to therein as at the date hereof and are true and accurate in all material respects;

b) nothing has been omitted from such description which would make the same misleading in any material aspect; and

c) in relation to the enforceability of People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) national laws in Hong Kong:

i. As disclosed in the Registration Statement, Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the PRC and the basic policies of the PRC regarding Hong Kong are reflected in the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Basic Law”), which provides that Hong Kong enjoys a high degree of autonomy and executive, legislative and independent judicial powers, including that of final adjudication under the principle of “one country, two systems”.

ii. Pursuant to the Basic Law, national laws of the PRC shall not be applied in Hong Kong except for those listed in Annex III of the Basic Law and applied locally by promulgation or local legislation. The Basic Law expressly provides that the national laws of the PRC which may be listed in Annex III of the Basic Law shall be confined to those relating to defense and foreign affairs as well as other matters outside the autonomy of Hong Kong. Whilst the National People’s Congress of the PRC has the power to amend the Basic Law, the Basic Law also expressly provides that no amendment to the Basic Law shall contravene the established basic policies of the PRC regarding Hong Kong. As a result, national laws of the PRC not listed in Annex III of the Basic Law, including but not limited to, the PRC Data Security Law, the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, and the PRC Personal Information Protection Law do not apply to our Hong Kong-based businesses. Therefore, subject to PRC counsel’s opinion, these regulatory actions should not have material effect on the operations of the Hong Kong Company and the Group as a whole.

2/6

 

iii. Whilst we acknowledge the risks in relation to the changes to, and enforcement of, rules and regulations in the PRC and the risks that the PRC government may exert more control over the affairs of Hong Kong, as disclosed in the Registration Statement, could materially affect the operations of the Hong Kong Company and the Group as a whole if they become applicable to the Hong Kong Company. However, such risks should be assessed in the context of the Basic Law and the restrictions imposed on Annex III thereto, as explained above.

iv. In summary, PRC national laws do not apply to Hong Kong unless specifically set out in Annex III of the Basic Law of Hong Kong.

7. This Opinion is delivered solely for the purpose of and in connection with the Registration Statement publicly filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on the date of this Opinion and may not be used for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

8. We hereby consent to the use of this Opinion in, and the filing hereof as an exhibit to, the Registration Statement, and to the reference to our name in such Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the regulations promulgated thereunder.

Yours faithfully,

Part B - Qualifications

The opinions set out above are, however, subject to the following qualifications:

(a) We have made no investigation of and express no opinion as to any law other than Hong Kong law in force at and as interpreted at the date of this Opinion. We are not qualified to, and we do not, express any opinion on the laws of any other jurisdiction. Without prejudice to the generality of the preceding sentences, our opinion is not intended to constitute, nor should it be construed as, advice regarding the securities laws or any other laws of the United States or any State thereof and we express no opinion as to the jurisdiction of any court of the United States or any State thereof;

(b) Our opinion is subject to the effects of (a) certain legal or statutory principles affecting the enforceability of contractual rights generally under the concepts of public interest, social ethics, national security, good faith, fair dealing, and applicable statutes of limitation; (b) any circumstance in connection with formulation, execution or performance of any legal documents that would be deemed materially mistaken, clearly unconscionable, fraudulent, coercionary or concealing illegal intentions with a lawful form; (c) judicial discretion with respect to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, remedies or defences, or calculation of damages; and (d) the discretion of any competent Hong Kong legislative, administrative or judicial bodies in exercising their authority in Hong Kong;

(d) Nothing in this Opinion shall be construed as an opinion that the Registration Statement complies with any legal or regulatory requirement as to its contents;

(e) The searches conducted by us do not reveal conclusively whether or not such an order, resolution or notice has been made, as certain documents may not be immediately filed at the Official Receiver’s Office, the Hong Kong Companies Registry and the High Court of Hong Kong and even if filed may not be immediately registered or entered onto the public records or databank of the relevant company. It is also possible that such searches may not be up to date as at the time of issue of this Opinion; and

(f) this Opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in Hong Kong as at the date hereof.
