C.Opinions

 

Based on our review of the Documents and subject to the Assumptions and the Qualifications (as defined below), we are of the opinion that:

 

(1)Historical VIE Agreement. The WFOE I and the Historical VIE have the power and legal right to execute, deliver and perform their respective obligations under each Historical VIE Agreement to which it is a party, and has duly authorized, executed and delivered such Historical VIE Agreement. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, during the period from the date of execution until the date of termination, each Historical VIE Agreement were valid, legal and binding obligations enforceable against each PRC Company to which it is a party in accordance with its terms.

 

(2)Corporate Structure. Based on our understanding of the currently published and effective PRC Laws, the ownership structure of the PRC Companies, both currently and immediately after giving effect to this Offering, will not result in any violation of applicable PRC Laws currently in effect in any material aspects.

 

(3)M&A Rules. The M&A Rules, among other things, purport to require CSRC approval prior to the listing and trading on an overseas stock exchange of the securities of an offshore special purpose vehicle established or controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals and formed for the purpose of overseas listing through the acquisition of PRC domestic interests held by such PRC companies or individuals. Based on our understanding of the explicit provisions under the currently published and effective PRC Laws, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, and assuming no offer, issuance or sale of the securities has been or will be made directly or indirectly within the PRC, it is currently not required to obtain a prior approval from the CSRC under the M&A Rules for the Offering. However, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of the M&A Rules, other PRC Laws and future PRC Laws, and there can be no assurance that any Governmental Agency will not take a view that is contrary to or otherwise different from our opinions stated herein.

 

(4)Cybersecurity Review. The Cybersecurity Review Measures required that, among others, if an internet platform operator holding over one million users’ personal information and intends to be listed in a foreign country, it must apply to the Cybersecurity Review Office housed in the CAC for cybersecurity review. In addition, the relevant Governmental Agencies in the PRC may initiate cybersecurity review if such Governmental Agencies determine an operator’s cyber products or services or data processing affect or may affect national security. As confirmed by the Company, the PRC Companies currently do not hold personal information of over one million users. Based on our understanding of the explicit provisions under the currently published and effective PRC Laws, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the PRC Companies are currently not required to apply to the Cybersecurity Review Office housed in the CAC for cybersecurity review for the Offering according to the Cybersecurity Review Measures. However, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of the Cybersecurity Review Measures, other PRC Laws and future PRC Laws, and the relevant Governmental Agencies in the PRC may take a view that is contrary to or otherwise different from our opinions stated herein and may initiate cybersecurity review on the PRC Companies at their discretion.

(5)Enforceability of Civil Procedures. There is uncertainty as to whether the PRC courts would (i) recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against the Company or directors or officers of the Company predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States; or (ii) entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against the Company or the directors or officers of the Company predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other form of reciprocity with the United States or the Cayman Islands that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against a company or its directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC Laws or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States or in the Cayman Islands.

 

(6)Taxation. The statements made in the Registration Statement under sections entitled “Taxation—PRC”, to the extent that such statements set forth any specific legal conclusion under PRC tax laws and regulations, constitute our opinion on such matters. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, there is no tax or duty payable by or on behalf of the PRC Companies under applicable PRC Laws in connection with the Offering, provided that each person participating in the offering is not subject to PRC tax by reason of citizenship, permanent establishment, residence or otherwise subject to PRC tax imposed on or measured by net income or net profits (and to the extent not granted an exemption or other relief under any applicable double-tax treaty).

 

(7)Dividends. To the best of our knowledge after due inquiry, none of the PRC Companies is currently prohibited from distributing dividends on their equity interests. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, all dividends declared and payable on the equity interests of any of the PRC Companies, in accordance with the PRC Laws and articles of association of the PRC Companies can be freely payable in Renminbi under the PRC Laws, and all dividends declared and payable on the equity interests in the WFOEs may be converted into foreign currency and freely transferred out of the PRC and free of any deductions in the PRC, provided that (i) the declaration and payment of such dividends complies with applicable PRC Laws and the constitutional documents of such WFOE, and (ii) the remittance of such dividends out of the PRC complies with the procedures required by the relevant PRC Laws relating to foreign exchange administration and the withholding tax provisions.

 

(8)Foreign Investment. To the best of our knowledge after due inquiry, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the operations of the PRC Companies as described in the Registration Statement are not subject to the foreign investment restrictions or prohibitions set forth in the Negative List and foreign investors are allowed to hold 100% equity interests of the PRC Companies currently.

 

(9)Statement in the Registration Statement. All statements set forth in the Registration Statement under the captions “Prospectus Summary”, “Risk Factors”, “Corporate History and Structure”, “Taxation—PRC”, “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities—PRC”, “Use of Proceeds”, “Dividend Policy”, and “Regulations”, in each case insofar as such statements describe or summarize matters of PRC Laws, are correct and accurate in all material aspects, and nothing has come to our attention, insofar as the PRC Laws are concerned, that causes us to believe that there is any omission from such statements which would cause such statements misleading in any material respect.

Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications (the “Qualifications”):

 

(1)Our opinions are limited to PRC Laws of general application on the date hereof. We have made no investigation of, and do not express or imply any views on, the laws of any jurisdiction other than the PRC, and we have assumed that no such other laws would affect our opinions expressed above.

 

(2)PRC Laws referred to herein are laws and regulations publicly available and currently in force on the date hereof and there is no guarantee that any of such laws and regulations, or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, will not be changed, amended or revoked in the future with or without retrospective effect.

 

(3)Our opinions are subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws in the PRC affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) possible judicial or administrative actions or any PRC Laws affecting creditors’ rights.

 

(4)Our opinions are subject to the effects of (i) certain legal or statutory principles affecting the enforceability of contractual rights generally under the concepts of public interests, social ethics, national security, good faith, fair dealing, and applicable statutes of limitation; (ii) any circumstance in connection with the 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; (iii) judicial discretion with respect to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, remedies or defenses, or the calculation of damages; and (iv) the discretion of any competent PRC legislative, administrative or judicial bodies in exercising their authority in the PRC.

 

(5)This opinion is issued based on our understanding of PRC Laws. For matters not explicitly provided under PRC Laws, the interpretation, implementation and application of the specific requirements under PRC Laws, as well as their application to and effect on the legality, binding effect and enforceability of certain contracts, are subject to the final discretion of competent PRC legislative, administrative and judicial authorities. Under PRC Laws, foreign investment is restricted in certain industries. The interpretation and implementation of these laws and regulations, and their application to and effect on the legality, binding effect and enforceability of contracts such as the Historical VIE Agreements and transactions contemplated by the Historical VIE Agreements, are subject to the discretion of the competent Governmental Agency.

(6)The term “enforceable” or “enforceability” as used in this opinion means that the obligations assumed by the relevant obligors under the relevant Documents are of a type which the courts of the PRC may enforce. It does not mean that those obligations will necessarily be enforced in all circumstances in accordance with their respective terms and/or additional terms that may be imposed by the courts. As used in this opinion, the expression “to the best of our knowledge after due inquiry” or similar language with reference to matters of fact refers to the current, actual knowledge of the attorneys of this firm who have worked on matters for the Company in connection with the Offering and the transactions contemplated thereby. We may rely, as to matters of fact (but not as to legal conclusions), to the extent we deem proper, on certificates and confirmations of responsible officers of the Company, the PRC Companies and Governmental Agencies.

 

(7)We have not undertaken any independent investigation, search or other verification action to determine the existence or absence of any fact or to prepare this opinion, and no inference as to our knowledge of the existence or absence of any fact should be drawn from our representation of the Company or the PRC Companies or the rendering of this opinion.

 

(8)This opinion is intended to be used in the context which is specifically referred to herein; each paragraph shall be construed as a whole and no part shall be extracted and referred to independently.

 

This opinion is strictly limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated herein. The opinions expressed herein are rendered only as of the date hereof, and we assume no responsibility to advise you of facts, circumstances, events or developments that hereafter may be brought to our attention and that may alter, affect or modify the opinion expressed herein.

 

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.

 

Yours faithfully,
