Re:A SPAC I Acquisition Corp.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is made to the Registration Statement on Form F-4, as amended (File No. 333-275208) (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by A SPAC I Mini Acquisition Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Company”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), covering, among other things, (i) an offering of 8,320,000 redeemable warrants (collectively the “Warrants”), each whole Warrant entitling its holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share of the Company, with no par value (the “Class A Ordinary Share”) at a price of $11.50 per share, and (ii) an offering of 6,900,000 rights (collectively the “Rights”), each right entitling its holder to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A Ordinary Share.

 

We have reviewed (i) the Warrant Agreement, dated February 14, 2022 (the “SPAC Warrant Agreement”) by and between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“CST”) and A SPAC I Acquisition Corp., the Company’s parent company (“ASCA”), and the Assumption of Warrant Agreement in the form filed with the Registration Statement to be entered into by the Company, ASCA, and CST (the “Assumption of Warrant Agreement,” and collectively with the SPAC Warrant Agreement, the “Warrant Agreements”), and (ii) the Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”), dated February 14, 2022 by and between ASCA and CST. We have examined such other documents and considered such legal matters as we have deemed necessary and relevant as the basis for the opinion set forth below. With respect to such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as reproduced or certified copies, and the authenticity of the originals of those latter documents. We have also assumed the due authorization, execution and delivery of each of the Warrant Agreements and the Rights Agreement by the parties thereto. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have, to the extent deemed appropriate, relied upon certain representations of certain officers of the Company.

 

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, upon the effectiveness and closing of the Reincorporation Merger (as defined in the Registration Statement), each of the Warrants assumed pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreements and each of the Rights assumed under the Rights Agreement will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms.

In providing such opinion, we have assumed that (i) the Company will enter into the Assumption of Warrant Agreement to assume all rights, duties and obligations of ASCA under the SPAC Warrant Agreement upon the closing of the Reincorporation Merger, including with respect to Section 4.5 thereof providing for the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares of the Company upon any exercise of the Warrants following the Reincorporation Merger, and (ii) the effectiveness of the Reincorporation Merger will result in the Company assuming all rights, duties and obligations of ASCA under the Rights Agreement by operation of British Virgin Islands law (save that the securities issuable thereunder shall be securities in the Company). In addition, the foregoing opinion is qualified to the extent that (a) enforceability may be limited by and be subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law (including, without limitation, concepts of notice and materiality), and by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ and debtors’ rights generally (including, without limitation, any state or federal law in respect of fraudulent transfers); (b) no opinion is expressed herein as to compliance with any federal or state consumer protection or antitrust laws, rules, or regulations, or any municipal or local laws and ordinances; (c) no opinion is expressed herein as to the enforceability of the indemnification provisions contained in any agreement, to the extent such provisions may be unenforceable under federal or state securities laws; (d) no opinion is expressed herein as to compliance with or the effect of federal or state securities or blue sky laws; (e) no opinion is expressed herein as to federal and state laws, regulations and policies concerning (i) a national or local emergency, (ii) possible judicial deference to acts of sovereign states, (iii) civil and criminal forfeiture laws, (iv) conscionability or other provisions that might violate public policy or (v) usury; and (f) no opinion is expressed herein as to (i) survivability or severability provisions, (ii) any provision purporting to make oral modifications will be unenforceable or which limits the applicability of the doctrine of promissory estoppel, (iii) choice of law or venue provisions, (iv) any provision that prohibits assignment by operation of law or in any other respect that may be deemed unreasonable under the circumstances, or (v) any arbitration provisions.

 

We are admitted to practice in the State of New York, and we express no opinion as to any matters governed by any law other than the laws of the State of New York.

 

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, to the use of our name as your U.S. counsel and to all references made to us in the Registration Statement and in the proxy statement/prospectus forming a part thereof. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

Very truly yours,
