Referred as the “Company”

Dear Sirs:

We are qualified lawyers of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”, for purposes of this Opinion (as defined below), excluding the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Macau Special Administrative Region and Taiwan) and as such, are qualified to issue this legal opinion (the “Opinion”) in respect of the laws and regulations of the PRC effective as of the date hereof.

We have acted as PRC legal counsel for AGORA, INC. (the “Company”), an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands, in connection with the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1, including all amendments or supplements thereto (the “Registration Statement”), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in relation to the Company’s initial public offering of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) representing Class A ordinary shares and the listing of the ADSs on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (the “Offering”).

We have been requested to give this Opinion on certain legal matters set forth herein.

In so acting, we have examined the originals or photocopies of documents provided to us by the Company and such other documents, corporate records, certificates issued by Government Agencies (as defined below) in the PRC and officers of the Company and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for rendering this Opinion (the “Documents”).

(D)	that all information provided to us by the Company in response to our inquiries for the purpose of this Opinion is true, accurate, complete and not misleading and that the Company has not withheld anything that, if disclosed to us, would reasonably cause us to alter this Opinion in whole or in part;

(H)	that all Documents are legal, valid, binding and enforceable under all such laws as govern or relate to them other than PRC Laws (as defined below); and

(I)

all required consents, licenses, permits, approvals, exemptions or authorizations required of or by, and any required registrations or filings with, any governmental authority or regulatory body of any jurisdiction other than of the PRC in connection with the transactions contemplated under the Prospectus (as defined below) have been obtained or made, or where such required consents, licenses, permits, approvals, exemptions or authorizations have not been obtained or made as of the date hereof, no circumstance will cause or result in any failure for the same to be obtained or made.

Where important facts were not independently established to us, we have relied upon representations made by the relevant officers of the Company. This Opinion is confined to and rendered on the basis of the PRC laws and regulations currently effective and we express no opinion on the laws of any jurisdiction other than the PRC.

In addition to the terms defined in the context of this Opinion, the following capitalized terms used in this opinion shall have the meanings ascribed to them as follows:



“Control Agreements”	means the agreements listed in Schedule 2 hereto.

“CSRC”	means the China Securities Regulatory Commission

“Government Agency” or “Government Agencies”	means any competent governmental authorities, agencies, courts, arbitration commissions, or regulatory bodies of the PRC or any province, autonomous region, city or other administrative division of the PRC.

“Governmental Authorization”	means any approval, consent, permit, authorization, filing, registration, exemption, waiver, endorsement, annual inspection, qualification and license required by the PRC Laws to be obtained from any Government Agency.

“M&A Rules”	means the Rules on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, which were jointly promulgated on August 8, 2006 by the Ministry of Commerce, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, the State Taxation Administration, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, CSRC and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, became effective on September 8, 2006 and was amended on June 22, 2009.

“PRC Companies”	means the WFOE and the VIE, collectively as listed in Schedule 1.

“PRC Laws”	means any and all laws, regulations, statues, rules, decrees, notices, and supreme court’s judicial interpretations currently in force and publicly available in the PRC as of the date hereof.

“Prospectus”	means the prospectus, including all amendments or supplements thereto, that forms part of the Registration Statement.

“Variable Interest Entity” or “VIE”	means Shanghai Zhaoyan Network Technology Co., Ltd. (上海兆言网络科技有限公司)

“WFOE”	means Dayin Network Technology Co., Ltd (达音网络科技(上海)有限公司)

Based on the foregoing, the Documents, and the statements and confirmations made by the Company and the PRC Companies, and after our inquiry against the Company and the PRC Companies, and subject to the disclosures contained in the Prospectus as well as the qualifications set out below, we are of the opinion that:


1.	Schedule 2 hereto sets forth a true and correct list of the Control Agreements among the WFOE, the VIE and/or all shareholders of the VIE. Based on our understanding of the current PRC Laws, (A) the ownership structure of the WFOE and the VIE set forth in Schedule 1, both currently and immediately

after giving effect to the Offering, does not violate and will not violate applicable PRC Laws currently in effect; (B) each of the Control Agreements is valid, binding and enforceable against each of the parties thereto in accordance with its terms and conditions and applicable PRC Laws, and, both currently and immediately after giving effect to the Offering, does not and will not violate any PRC Laws currently in effect; and (C) the descriptions of the Control Agreements under the heading “Contractual Arrangements among our WFOE, our VIE and our VIE’s Shareholders” in the Prospectus, to the extent that they constitute matters of PRC Laws, are true and accurate and nothing has been omitted from such descriptions which would make the same misleading in any material respects. However, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current and future PRC Laws governing the validity of the contractual arrangements mentioned herein, and there can be no assurance that the Government Agencies will take a view that is not contrary to or otherwise different from our opinion stated above.

The M&A Rules require, among other things, that offshore special purpose vehicles, or SPVs, that are controlled by PRC companies or individuals and that have been formed for overseas listing purposes through acquisitions of PRC domestic interest held by such PRC companies or individuals, to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to publicly listing their securities on an overseas stock exchange. We are of the opinion that the Offering is not subject to the M&A Rules since (A) the WFOE was incorporated as a foreign-invested enterprise by means of foreign direct investments at the time of its incorporation rather than by merger with or acquisition of any PRC domestic companies as defined under the M&A Rules; and (B) there is no statutory provision that clearly classifies the contractual arrangement among the WFOE, the VIE and its shareholders as transactions regulated by the M&A Rules. However, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC Laws and future PRC laws and regulations, and there can be no assurance that the Government Agencies will take a view that is not contrary to or otherwise different from our opinion stated above.

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedure Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedure Law based either on treaties or similar arrangements between China and the jurisdiction where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. Under PRC law, a foreign judgment violating basic legal principles of PRC law, state sovereignty, safety or social public interest will not be recognized and enforced by a PRC court. As no treaty exists and there is limited form of reciprocity between China and the United States governing the recognition and enforcement of judgments as of the date hereof, including those predicated upon the liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws, there is uncertainty whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce judgments rendered by United States courts.


4.	As of the date hereof, the discussions of PRC taxation in the Prospectus are true and accurate based on the PRC Laws, and the statements of law and legal conclusions in the Registration Statement under the caption “Taxation - People’s Republic of China Taxation” constitute our opinion as to the material tax consequences of an investment in the ADSs under the PRC Laws.

The statements in the Prospectus under the captions “Prospectus Summary”, “Risk Factors”, “Use of Proceeds”, “Dividend Policy”, “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities” “Corporate History and Structure”, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, “Business”, “Regulation”, “Related Party Transactions - Contractual Arrangements with our VIE and its Shareholders”, and “Taxation”, insofar as such statements describe or summarize PRC legal or regulatory matters, or documents, agreements or proceedings governed by PRC Laws, are true, accurate and correct in all material respects, and fairly present or fairly summarize in all material respects the PRC legal and regulatory matters, documents, agreements or proceedings referred to therein; and such statements do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact, and do not omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

This Opinion is subject to the following qualifications:

This Opinion is subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (B) possible judicial or administrative actions or any PRC Law affecting creditors’ rights. In particular, the term “enforceable” used in this Opinion does not mean the relevant agreement, contract, or other legal instrument will be necessarily enforced. Whether such documents can be actually enforced is contingent upon various factors. While a court or arbitral body may find that a person is obligated to perform its obligations under a contract binding on such person, a claim from the non-defaulting party will not be necessarily be upheld and enforced, if, for example, (i) performance of the contractual obligation is legally or factually impossible, (ii) forcible performance is unsuitable for the subject matter, or the cost to enforce performance is unduly high, or (iii) the creditor fails to demand the performance within a reasonable period (Article 110, PRC Contract Law). Enforcement of creditors’ rights may also be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, force majeure event, readjustment of debts or moratorium or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights of creditors. Some claims may become barred under the statute of limitation or may be or become subject to defenses of set-off, counterclaim, and similar defenses. An application requesting a court to enforce a ruling or arbitral award in effect may be also be halted if a third party disputes the enforcement based on its own rights on reasonable ground, and in other circumstances provided in the PRC Law on Civil Procedure and other applicable PRC Laws.

This Opinion is subject to (A) certain equitable, legal or statutory principles in affecting the enforceability of contractual rights generally under concepts of public interest, interests of the state, national security, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and applicable statutes of limitation; (B) any circumstances in connection with formulation, execution or implementation of any legal documents that would be deemed materially mistaken, clearly unconscionable, fraudulent, or coercionary at the conclusions thereof; (C) judicial discretion with respect to the availability of indemnifications, remedies or defenses, the calculation of damages, the entitlement to attorney fees and other costs, the waiver of immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from legal process; and (D) the legally vested discretion of any competent PRC legislative, administrative or judicial bodies in exercising their authority in the PRC.


3.	This Opinion relates only to PRC Laws and we express no opinion as to any laws other than PRC Laws. There is no guarantee that any of such PRC Laws will not be changed, amended, replaced or revoked in the immediate future or in the longer term with or without retroactive effect.


4.	Under relevant PRC laws and regulations, foreign investment is restricted in certain businesses. The interpretation and implementation of these laws and regulations, and their application to and effect on the legality, binding effect and enforceability of contracts and transactions are subject to the discretion of competent PRC legislative, administrative and judicial authorities.


5.	This Opinion is limited to paragraph 1 to 5 above only.

This Opinion is intended to be used in the context which is specifically referred to herein and each paragraph should be looked at as a whole and no part should be extracted and referred to independently.

This Opinion is provided to the Company for the Offering by us in our capacity as the Company’s PRC legal adviser and may not be relied upon by any other persons or corporate entities or used for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in, and the filing hereof as an exhibit to, the Registration Statement, and to the use of our firm’s name under the captions “Risk Factors”, “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities”, “Corporate History and Structure”, “Taxation” and “Legal Matters” in the 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.
